Hi,
The functionality of the mute button is provided by the IDT Audio software so the problem may be that Windows 8 has installed a reference driver that does not contain this.  Often, the Windows 7 version works Ok, so I'd try downloading and installing the following IDT driver.

After the installation has completed, restart the notebook.

  • My iphone 5 will not turn on ... i have held both buttons down at the same time and I get nothing ...it is fully charged ....any other suggestions?

    My iphone 5 will not turn on ....I have held both buttons down at the same for a long time and get nothing ...it is fully charged ....and other suggestions?

    The screen on my iPhone 5 (iOS 8.1.3) went dark after unplugging it from the PC.  I could still could see a backlight on the screen, but unresponsive.  iOS was hung in this state.
    I opted to try a reset holding power and home button, which succeeded in turning off the phone.
    After that, the screen went completely off.  Power button didn't appear to turn on the phone.
    Upon plugging back to iTunes, I discovered, even as the screen was pitch black, the phone was actually able to power on, or off if I repeated the reset....I could hear the USB connection chime on the PC every time I powered on or reset.  The iOS was in some sort of corrupted state with no screen output.
    I couldn't restore to factory settings, as iTunes requires I disable "Find My Phone" on the phone itself, which I couldn't do without screen output.  Also tried to put the phone in "Recovery Mode"...didn't work either.
    I finally succeeded by:
    Logging in via web browser to iCloud, locating the phone with the "Find My Phone" web app, and triggering [Erase].  iCloud reported the phone was successfully erased.
    After a minute, the phone rebooted itself and screen output worked again.
    I then restored my data and settings from my last backup using iTunes without further issues.
    Hope this helps others.

  • HT4623 My husband just did the update for his iPhone 4, his phone is frozen with the iTunes page and a usb cable across the homescreen. He's tried holding down all the buttons all at the same time. can't shut it off. popped out the sim card, won't charge

    We just did the iPhone update ios 6. The screen is frozen with the iTunes logo and a picture of a USB cale across the screen. none of the buttons respond.The phone does not recognize the apple USB when connected. We tried holding all the buttons down at the same time and also removed the SIM card and reinserted.

    If it's not being recognized while it's in recovery mode in your itunes, try this
    plug the phone into the usb attached to the computer
    hold down the home and sleep/wake button on top simultaneously until the phone's screen goes black
    When the screen goes black, release your finger from the sleep/week button on top but continue holding the home button until you see a dialog on the itunes screen on your computer that says 'itunes has detected a device in recovery mode'
    then say 'ok,' select 'restore,' and say 'restore and update'

    Hi,
    You're welcome
    Try using Recovery Manager to reinstall the IDT Audio Driver - the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the document on the link below.

  • Print screen and Function "fn" key not working.Mute button stays red constantly.

    Hi,
    I bought an hp pavilion dv6-2154ca two weeks ago. It has windows 7 64-bit, nvidia Geforce 210m 1Gb graphics card, and my function "fn" key is not working at all. I downloaded the quick launch buttons driver a few days ago, according to the advice of an hp advisor, so any suggestions on how to get my fn key working. 
    My mute button stays red, even when the volume is on and i'm watching videos. This problem didn't exist until i downloaded the audio driver.
    My print screen key doesn't work either, i got to know it when i was trying to print screen images for school work.
    Thanks.

    Woudl advise a BIOS upgrade when downgrading to Windows XP, the European BIOS driver for your version of notebook is;

  • My laptop is HP Pavilion DV6 1319TX (2 yrs old),it is getting heated up and getting strucked up.

    My laptop is HP Pavilion DV6 1319TX (2 yrs old),it is getting heated up and getting stucked up.can any one help ...
    O.S. Installed :Windows 7 vista
    No upgradtion of software or no upgradation of BIOS or no upgradation of hardware elements since i bought .

    After 2-3 years laptops may need to have the cooling fan and heatsink area cleaned out and have new cooling paste applied on the processor. I just did this on my own laptop which will be 3 years old in September. It is a fairly advanced procedure. We can provide material that will tell you how to do it, but more likely you need to find a local computer shop to perform the task. Expect to pay $50-100.

    So does this mean that I cannot have rotation lock off and the mute function off at the same time? In other words, can I have my screen rotate automatically as I hold my iPad in either portrait or landscape AND hear sounds from my apps at the same time?

    In other words, can I have my screen rotate automatically as I hold my iPad in either portrait or landscape AND hear sounds from my apps at the same time?
    Yes, you can. You can configure the Side Switch (above the volume button) either as Mute switch or Rotation lock.
    Settings > General > Use Side Switch to: choose what you like the Side Switch to function as.

  • No sound through external speakers on my iphone 4s but headphones work fine! When headphones unplugged volume button shows headphones not plugged in! Tried all solutions suggested here to no luck?!??

    No sound through external speakers but fine through headphones! Button on left is not on mute and checked all settings and all fine! Tried all solutions here but no luck! Sound gone before I updated the software??

    You may have debris in your headphone jack blocking the sensor.  Try blowing hard on the jack, and inserting/removing your headphones quickly multiple times to clear it.

    I bougnt my S5 a month ago and I am having two major issues.  The screen is very slow to respond.  When the screen is dark and I press the home button, it doesn't come on.  I have to press the button anywhere from 4-10 times and then it usually flashes on and back off.  It is very, very frustrating.  The other issue is that the battery drains very quickly.  I have called Verizon numerous times regarding these issues.  They tell me to do different things that never help.  We eventually did a factory reset and it still has the same issues.  Help!  It is a brand new phone and unfortunately I am in a new two year contract.  Ugh. Is there anyone out there who can help me?

    I have done that several times.  In fact, every time I call Verizon with my phone problems, they have me do the same things repeatedly.  I keep telling them I have already done them but they insist they are SURE it will work this time.  It never does.  After doing the factory reset and it still not working correctly, they act like they are confused, almost like I am lying.  I did what you suggested above on the slim chance it would work this time but it did not.  I bought two S5's that day and the other one works perfectly fine.  I know I got a bad phone.  Verizon just does not listen.  It is a bad phone.  I just want a new phone that works properly.  Is that too much to ask?  I bought a new phone that has been bad from day one.  Why oh why do I have to spend hours of my time on the phone, in the store, on the computer, trying to rectify this?  It shouldn't be this difficult!  Help please!!!

    1.  If you are really on iOS 7.1, you may wish to try upgrading to 8.1.2 which is the latest (basing this on your signature).
    2.  If updating the phone doesn't help, is this only when you connect to a specific wifi network?  Or all wifi networks (including public with no password)?  If it is ALL wifi networks, you may have a hardware problem.  Genius bar would be the next step.

    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I need to create buttons in which the color changes, and stays on after you release the button

    I need to create buttons in which the color changes, and stays on after you release the button. The hard part is the buttons must change independently of each other.
    To get an idea of some of things I’ve tried I’ve tried making the movie with two frames.
    When I click the button it switched to the new frame which would show a movie clip,
    Unfortunately all buttons would change color together and don’t see how to make it so that they change independently.

    you must use movieclip buttons and code for their frame changes.
