I just allowed HP Assistant to update and now I have no sound - HP Pav dv7

* HP Pavilion dv7-6b78us Entertainment PC with CORE i7 Intel processor
* Windows 7
* The subject says it all.  If I load a sound file into Windows Media Player, it literally responds with an error message that says something went wrong.  Trying to view a streaming video on any news channel or YouTube results in great video without sound.
* HP Assistant told me an update was avaialbe and I allowed it do a BIOS update along with other updates.  It worked fine before the update.

Try a hard reset, works sometimes.Disconnect all external devices first.
1-remove power cord and battery
2-press power button for 30 seconds
3-reinstall only power cord for first startup.
4-power on

    You can not merge accounts.
    Apps are tied to the Apple ID used to download them, you can not transfer them.

    Probably the reboot used to log into the Guest account and then your account again fixed the problem.  If often will.

    I have just done the new Itunes update and now when i plug my phone into the computer it dose not recongnise my phone through itunes and will not let me snyc, backup or update it. What did i do ? sorry what should i do ?

    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.
    An "other" larger than about 1 1/2 GB indicates corrupted files.

  • I've just had a keyboard firmware update and now my volume control buttons wont work

    i've just had a keyboard firmware update and now my volume control buttons wont work.
    Has anyone else had this problem? if so have they found out how to fix it, or is this an on going issue?

    Hi,
    Your problem has some similarities to this problem that I reported earlier this month that that still arises every few days. I was thinking that my problem was related to some sort of bug in Entourage, but maybe it's something else...

    Hmmm, Norton extensions are broken again in Firefox 4.0.1. It seems that Norton didn't allow for Firefox 4.0 security updates when they updated their Firefox extension for Firefox 4.0. Norton says they'll have a fix in two weeks. A Norton user posted a fix in this forum thread.

    Hi, I have recently done some online updates and now I have to restart my mac each time for the stupid thing to recognise my internet settings. Any help gratefully accepted.

    Were they Apple updates from Software Update or were they downloaded updates, including 3rd party updates from a website (Including Apple's)?

    My iphone 4 updated to ios6.0.1 and now i have no sound in any of my apps? how do i fix this?

    Reset, hold both home and power buttons for about 10 seconds until the iPhone begins to restart itself, ignore the "slide to power off" let the iPhone restart itself. See if better. If still problem, Restore iPhone with iTunes 10.7 or 11 on computer. See if better, if not and there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean iPhone Charging Port with clean dry toothbrush. See if better, if not, clean again with small amount of Isopropyll Alcohol.

  • Downloaded 10.5 and now I have no sound in itunes

    See if it is on the Customize Toolbar window. If so, while the Customize Toolbar window is open, drag it to the location you want it. To open the Customize Toolbar window, do one of the following:
    *click Firefox button > Options > Toolbar Layout
    *using the Menu Bar: View > Toolbars > Custonize
    *HOLD down the ALT key while pressing the keyboard letters VTC
    *right-click on a blank space on a toolbar or at the end of the Tab Bar and choose "Customize".
    If "Search" is not on the Customize Toolbar window, click "Restore Default Set" at the bottom of the Customize Toolbar window and look again.

  • I just downloaded the Java software update and now certain programs aren't loading that use Java?

    So I downloaded the new softeware update and now my programs that use Java won't load. Does anyone know what I can do.

    Due to the extreme unpredictability of the Flashback Trojan, that was constantly changing (and a new variant that's been detected and seems to be worse), Apple decided to play it safe just in case the revised Java code was still vulnerable. So, Java is disabled by default for applets and must be manually enabled as needed (with the warning about possible vulnerability).
    So, head on over to Java Preferences, in Utilities, and enable the thing as needed. Disable when no longer in use for security's sake. BTW, if you enable but don't use Java in awhile, it is configured to self-disable for the same reason.
