  • Why on firefox browser on videos i cant hear sound it just playing and just gone.

    Why on firefox browser on videos i cant hear sound it just playing and just gone. The sound dissapearing on all videos. Please help me i tried some solutions but it not fixed. Thank you.

    Did you check the volume setting in that Flash Player?
    Try to clear the Flash local storage and settings.
    *Windows Control Panel > Flash Player > Storage: Local Storage Settings
    **Remove a specific domain: Local Storage Settings by site
    **Remove all domains: Delete All and Delete Data
    Flash Website Storage Settings panel:
    *http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html
    Global Storage Settings Panel:

    You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
    You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window, so make sure that Firefox is not muted or set at a low level.<br />
    Current Firefox versions use the plugin-container process to run plugins, so you need to check the volume setting for the plugin-container process.<br />
    You will only see the Firefox program or the Plugin Container in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.

  • I cant hear sound on my laptop

    i cant hear sound all of a sudden

    Hi
    You have a couple of options as I see it.
    Please First check if the speaker icon on the unit is not muted.
    Go to device manager and uninstall the Sound driver and restart and unit will install the driver automatically.
    Try doing System restore to the date when the unit was working fine.
    Try to update the driver from hp.com website for Audio & Bios.
    Let us know how it goes!

    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/sp59001-59500/sp59154.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, download and reinstall the Chipset driver on the following link.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp52501-53000/sp52791.exe
    When the Chipset reinstallation has completed, shutdown 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 f9 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f5, 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,

    Hi.
    Try updating the Flash plugin. If that doesn't help, uninstall it and install it again. You can manage your plugins by going into Tools > Add-ons > Plugins.
    Also, just to make sure, you can hear this file, right?

  • Sending an MMS and recipient cant hear sound

    Hi i have an iPhone 4s and i send a lot of MMS vids to my mum who owns a samsung galaxy . All was going well until i recently got a new 4S after issues with my old one and since then my mum can receive my vids but cant hear anything! We did some tests , if i send vid to my dads phone which is a Iphone 4 that was fine, my husband who also owns a 4S sent a vid to my mum who owns the galaxy and it went through fine so we come to the conclusion it was my brand new week old phone thats causing it to somehow lose sound when it was sent from my phone! Has anyone had this issue? Does anyone know how i can fix it? My parents live across the country and i send alot of vids of there only grandchild to them and as my dad works away alot i generally only send vids to mum so its important i fix this problem asap.Thank u :-)

    First try convering the basic:
    Is FaceTime the only thing you can't hear? Is your friend blocking the mic with her finger?
    Does it happen to all FaceTime calls (both ends)? Can you listen to other sounds (like the volume up and down sound) while FaceTiming? Is your volume all up? Is you output device correctly chosen?
    There are a lot of simple variables to consider before saying it's a problem related to your Mac. Test it a little further and let us know.

  • I cant hear sound?(CS6)

    I have the sound selected and the music works just cant hear it my speakers work i have tested that.... please help? Even when i render and upload to youtube their is no sound....? (CS6)

    Please go to the FAQ page and read both posts about audio. You'll find a link on the forum home page.

  • Cant hear sounds from wine ingame?

    I can't hear sounds within wine games but if i open winecfg and click test sounds, i hear a faint sound, so im not sure if my audio is low for wine or what. i don't know how to set the volume for wine if that's what it is because when i open the alsa mixer it has nothing but the speakers actual sounds and not the programs. please help?!
    also, i am new so i don't know much yet.

    I really wouldn't be bumping this dead topic, if I wouldn't be experiencing exactly the same (or at least very similar) problems.
    There is one major difference though, I didn't notice this problem until I installed Command & Conquer 3, as it's the only game that lacks sound. In the other two games I have, that is Age of Empires 2 and Medieval 2: Total War, sound works.
    So I didn't notice it before.
    I was trying to solve this by myself, but I just didn't find anything that could be the problem.
    So here it's how it is.
    If I set sound in winecfg to HD-Audio Generic  ALC889 Digital that is exactly the soundcard I have I have no sound whatsoever in Command & Conquer, but sound works completely okay in other two games.
    If I set to default or system default, then there's sound in all but with high latency, a lot of noise and a bit of echo. In AoE this goes away once you get to the actual game the latency, noise and echo disappear, but in C&C it only kind of disappears and can still be heard. It's not just faint or whatever, it's actually quite audible and does make the game unplayable (especially the echo).
    So if anyone has any idea what to do, please tell me. I think I once had this problem and managed to solve it, but I can't remember how I did it.

  • I cant hear sound when a sms is coming or when playing media files.

    When i plug in earphones i can hear sound and when a call comes in the sound works.
    Anyone who know anything that can help.

    Same problem started this morning for me.  All sounds seem to work through headphones.  The only tone that seems to come through the iPhone4s speaker is for the "ringtone".  Music plays through the headphone, but not speaker.
    The side switch is up.  I've synced to iTunes.  Settings haven't been changed recently, and appear to be correct.  I've held the home and power buttons (think that's their names) until the white apple showed.

    What happens if you switch the mute button on the side of the phone?
    Any restrictions set up in Settings/General/Restrictions? If yes, disable them and check again.
    Did you also try to set it up as new device?

    Setting it up as new device will also download the latest software onto your device.
