I just noticed my laptop speakers are not working. How do I fix them?

I didn't realize it, 'til I started a video tonight & there was no sound. Then I checked further & there is no sound coming from anywhere.....email alerts, etc. I played some videos a few days ago & it was working! I checked the I have a HP G62-340US Notebook, PNXH066UA . there are some other numbers I have written down next to this PN.....not sure if they are part of it XH066UAR. I have a Windows 7 64-bit OS. the ATI high definition audio device is working properly, so, is the Realtek high definition audio! This, just, happened over night so-to-speak! Does anyone know what I can do to fix this? Please answer in layman's terms. I'm not familiar with everything on the computer! thank you! Andrea

There are 6 keys in my MacBook Pro that are not working, how can I fix them?

I am experiencing issues with 6 keys (6, y, h, n, =, /) on my very old MacBook Pro, when I boot up my laptop these keys just dont work anymore.
But when I used the keyboard viewer it works, can anybody help me or guide me on how I can resolve my problem?
Big thanks!

Updated my IOS 7 now some of my games are not work, how can I fix this problem?

I have updated my Ipad to the IOS 7 and now some of my games/apps are not working, how can i fix this or revert back to what I had before?

I'm afraid you'll have to wait until both Apple and the makers of your games/apps upgrade to new versions.
Apparently there are still some issues with iOS7 that are being dealt with and the same with some apps.
As for going back, I don't think you will be able to get this information from these forums...

My laptop speakers are not working properly so wanted to visit service centers of hp in london

from yesterday night my laptop HP pavilion g6 speakers are not working properly. out of many only one speaker is working so i want to visit authorized service centers so that i can fix the issue.

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/sp56001-56500/sp56460.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 this has had any effect on the audio issue.
Regards,
DP-K

My laptop speakers are not working but my headphones work fine

I have an HP Pavilion g6-1d73us laptop and although my headphones work properly the speakers do not. This is a recent problem. I have tried troubleshooting with windows troubleshooter with no results. I have checked all the drivers for audio and they check out fine. I have tried driver software with no success. Windows Media Player does not work. I get an error message when I try to use it. What else can I try? Carl

Hello @hifive11,
I have read your post on how your notebook speakers are not working, but the headphones work fine, and I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
The first step I recommend is to follow this document on No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7). This should help to restore the sound to your speakers.
You can also enable the speakers on your computer as the default playback device. This can be done by following the steps below:
1. Click the Start button
2. Click Control Panel
3. Click on Hardware and Sound (sorting the control panel icons by "category"), and then click on Sound
4. Under Playback, you should see one or two speaker icons. One of them should already have a green checkmark next to it (which will be your notebook's headset device). If the second Speakers icon is not visible, right-click in the list of devices and select Show Disabled Devices
5. A second, disabled icon of "speakers" should appear. Right-click this icon and click Enable
6. Test your speakers
If the issue continues, I recommend returning your notebook to a previous restore point before the speakers stopped working. This can be done by following the steps in this document on Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7).
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, and I look forward to your reply!

plz help me

Since upgrading to Safari 5.1 some Java scripts are not working, how can I fix this?

Many thanks for any assistance

If you did not create this swf yourself then you won't be able to do what I am suggesting. If you did, then open the fla in Flash and go into the Publish Settings and select the option to publish an html file as an output. That will create an html page that embeds the Flash file. Test that file in your browser and see if it plays properly. IF so, then copy that code in place of whatever Dreamweaver did to embed the Flash.
Dreamweaver is not a reliable tool for embedding Flash content... why it does not do it the same way Flash does it is anyone's guess.

Hi i have a macbook pro 13 inch mid 2012 i noticed that the speakers are not that loud unlike before

hi i have a macbook pro 13 inch mid 2012 i noticed that the speakers are not that loud unlike before,
now when i play music or videos, the sound is not the same unlike before, then my brother noticed it too because he has a macbook pro 13 inch late 2011 as well, im just wondering whats the problem? the speakers on my bro's laptop is still loud, mine is becoming not that loud much unlike before, tnx!

Check your settings in System Preferences>Sound. If that does not help, perform a PRAM reset.

If that does not solve the issue, then a trip to an Apple store is in order.

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

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 speakers are not working but it still makes a sound when it boots up

my speakers are not working but it still makes a sound when it boots up.

Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article.
2. If your model has an audio-out (headphone) port, and a red light is coming from it, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
3. Boot in safe mode. Don't log in; just reboot as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
4. Reset the NVRAM.
5. Reset the SMC.
6. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
7. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

My ipod speakers are not working unless I have my headphones plugged in?

So I accidently dropped my ipod in the toilet:( i immediently turned it off and put it in a bag of rice. When i came to get it out of the bag i noticed that my speakers were not working and when i turn up the volume it says i have my headphones in, and when i plug my headphones in the speakers work fine. I found out that there was some rice lodged in the headphone jack but i got it out with a needle and my ipod still thanks the headphones are in? I dont know what else to do, Please Help!!

Have you tried the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
- Reset. Nothing will be lost
FIX for iPod Touch Home Button: Apple Support Communities
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
If still a problem you have a hardware problem. It could be the headphone jact or something else.

Pavilion g6 both speakers are not working

my laptop pavilion g6 is one and half year old and my both altec srs premium speakers are not working.................when i troubleshoot audio problem in control panel it does not shows any problem so please help me

Hello rakesh_kaunder.
Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. I understand there is no sound coming from the computer's internal speaker. I apologize for the delay, but I will do my best to assist you!
Before any other troubleshooting is done, I would like to run the Microsoft Fix it utility. This tool will troubleshoot and potential resolve the following:
- Corrupt or disabled audio driver(s).
- Issues with your audio device(s).
- Settings of your audio devices (in case something is not enabled that should be).
Please download and run the utility from this Microsoft website: Automatically diagnose and fix Windows audio playback problems
This utility will potentially resolve the issue on its own. If the issue is not resolved, please try the troubleshooting steps in this HP document: No Sound from the Speakers
I believe all of this troubleshooting will resolve your internal speaker issue. Please post your results, regardless of the outcome. Thank you for posting this issue on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
