HP Pavilliov dv7 thinks there's a headphone plugged in.

Hi,
a few months ago i unplugged my headphones my laptop and now the laptop still thinks it is plugged in.
I tried a few methods to fix this myself, for example re-installing the IDT software but that didn't help anything.
I have windows 8.1
please help me, thank you

Have you performed a hard reset? This is where you remove the battery and AC adapter and let it sit without power for a few minutes, then plug it back in again. What about a BIOS update?

Phone thinks there is a headphone attached, but there isn't.

My 3G phone "thinks" there is a headphone attached, but there isn't. I cannot hear calls coming in, and if I call someone I cannot hear them, nor can they hear me. When I click on the volume button on the side it says "headphone" when it should say "ringer". Occasionally it says something I have not seen before: "ringer" and with "headphones" in parentheses underneath.
But I can make calls fine with a headphone plugged in.
I also notice that music is playing on iTunes all the time, when I have not turned it on.
I have talked with an Apple iPhone tech person, and we have tried most things we could think of, including a total restore. After the restore I got it to work for a few minutes, then it went right back to thinking there was a headphone attached when there isn't.
Any ideas out there?? Other than my having to buy a new phone?
Thanks!

Lint or fluff is a frequent problem, even if you don't think there could be much in there. The best way to remove it is to switch off the iPhone and then use a needle to excavate. Naturally you should not poke blindly. This is a far more effective method than using canned air. See this thread for examples: discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=9128049 and you may be surprised at what you can extract!

Laptop thinks there is a headset plugged in so speakers do not work, win7.

DV7 Win7, no sound from speakers, thinks there is still a headset plugged in.

Hi,
Try the following.
Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp55001-55500/sp55094.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete. Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.
Regards,
DP-K

IPad in headphone mode but no headphones plugged in

My iPad 4 is in headphone mode but there is no headphone plugged in

That's most likely a mechanical problem. Try inserting/removing a headphone plug perhaps a half-dozen times. If that doesn't help, make an appointment with the resident "Genius" at a nearby Apple Store.

My laptop thinks there are headphones in at all times, such that the speakers won't work, how do I fix this?

Thanks but that did not work. Details: when I don't have headphones plugged in, the volume won't go up or down and it also displays a circle with a line through it meaning it's not working. When I go to settings and look at my audio output, it only says headphones, even if no headphones are plugged in. I have tried inserting and removing headphones many times, also tried poking the inside of the headphone jack with a stripped Q-tip, and nothing works. Something inside the jack that senses headphones is not sensing the lack of headphones.

My Headphone jack in my iphone has a peice of headphone plug stuck inside so it constantly thinks theres headphones plugged in and i cant get it out!! what do i do?!?!!? please help!

Got a new 4s today. there is no sound at all. not a whisper. there is with headphones but none without. ive tried everything i can think of, reset, fiddle with the sound settings etc but nothing. Any ideas please?

Got a new 4S today. It has no sound at all. not a whisper. there is with headphones but none without. its as if the speaker is not working. ive tried everything can think of, reset, fiddle with sound settings etc, checked ive got sound on and volume up. any ideas?

Check the mute switch. It is located just above the volume controls. If it is displaying orange, it is on, flip it in the other direction to turn it off.

My 4S thinks there r headphones still attached.. how can i undo this

had my headphones plugged in this morning. after undoiung from jack, phone still think they r plugged in .. how can i fix this.. cant use my phone noormally

My iPhone 4S won't play ANY sound unless I have a external speaker or have a wireless fm transmitter plugged into the headphone jack to play sound through my home surround sound system or car speakers. I have searched the Internet and a few places said I might have lint or dirt in the headphone jack. One way to supposedly tell is to press the volume buttons while there isn't anything plugged into the headphone jack and if the phone shows the headphone volume instead of the ringer volume then that's the problem. But mine shows the ringer volume when I press the volume buttons. Another site said it might be the charging pins at the bottom of the phone and to clean those as well. So is there something in the headphone jack port or did my speaker stop working? I have already tried to shut the phone down, hard rest, a factory reset, and made sure I had the latest updates for IOS 6. I checked my sound settings and made sure the side switch was turned on and up! So it's not that. Another website I found said there could be a problem in the software. UGH!

So I think there should be an app with flash cards that you can fill in your own info with. I'm studying for a test, and how awesome would it be to have my flash cards on my phone!!! Is there already an app like that?

I have two apple id's because my hotmail account is no longer active. How can I delete the old one and use or update the new one? Every time I try it won't allow me and now my iPad thinks there are two accounts and they are arguing with each other. Help!

You can't merge accounts or copy content to a different account, so anything that you bought or downloaded via the old account is tied to that account - so any updates that those apps get you will only be able to download via that account. You can change which account is logged in on the iPad via Settings > Store

Does anyone have problems occasionally with their slide to unlock on iphone 4s with the ios7 update? And do you think there will be a bug fix? Bit worried

Hi everyone,
I've recently updated my iphone 4s with the ios7 update and there was a bug fix I also downloaded recently but I hadn't noticed anything wrong at the time. I know it's not happened that often today but does anyone have any problems with their 'slide to unlock' button and have to reload their iphone again? Do you think there'll be a bug fix for it? Just worried as it's not old and I have a feeling I shouldn't have bothered with the update at all.

Why would you think it's a bug? If it were a bug EVERYONE would be having the same issue.
Basics from the user guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new.

jsavage9621,
It pains me to hear about your experience with the Home Phone Connect. This device usually works seamlessly and is a great alternative to a landline phone. It sounds like we've done our fair share of work on your account here. I'm going to go ahead and send you a Private Message so that we can access your account and review any open tickets for you. I look forward to speaking with you.

It works totally fine but every few minutes my computer sais that I my mighty mouse is connected and then another few minutes later it sais its disconected. My Macbook thinks there is a mighty mouse allthough its not. Is there anything I can do?
(I tried everything, also another mouse didn´t solve the problem.)
Thanks for your help.

Get a mighty mouse and your MBP will be satisfied.
