Try reinstalling the Webcam software. The software is located at the Software & drivers section of the  web support portal for your notebook. There are two software packages available.

  • ProBook 4330s integrated microphone not working on Windows XP

    Hi there, everyone!
    I've recently stumbled on a problem after installing Windows XP on a second partition on my ProBook 4330s. I went into the drivers page for my computer to find the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC in order to get some sound from the computer. After installed the speaker works perfect, but I can't use the integrated microphone on the computer. I've tested to plug in an USB mic, to check what happens, and then it counts as the IDT mic works even though it's the USB mic that is the one which works (I don't have to select the Logitech mic in Skype, for example, in order to make it work). On my Windows 7 and Kubuntu partitions the mic works fantastic however. But since the drivers come pre-installed for my Windows 7, and the drivers are automatically detected in Kubuntu, I have no idea what I should do to make the microphone work. If anyone knows what I have to do it would be greatly appreaciated if you could share.
    Thanks in advance,
    Daniel

    Can someone please help.

  • EliteBook 2540p integrated microphone not working

    Recently I had to replace the hard drive on my EliteBook 2540p and since it came back from the shop the integrated mic seems to have stopped working.  
    Any ideas?

    Hi.
    I have a DV2620EA with exactly the same problem as yours. It seems as though this hissing background noise isn't a hardware issue (in most cases), but a driver issue in Vista. Instead of "updating" your sound drivers (i assume you have a "connexant HD audio driver"), remove them entirely first and then install them from "hp support and drivers website".
    To do this;
    - Go to the control panel
    - Find "device manager"
    - Right click "sound, video and games controllers"
    - Select "properties"
    - Click on the "driver" tab
    - Click "uninstall" and check "delete driver software for this device"
    - Click OK to remove the drivers
    By now, vista should have no "record" of a microphone device on your computer. Check this by going onto sound recorder, it should show you a mesage saying "no mic detected on your system" (or something like that)
    - After this, go onto http://welcome.hp.com/country/uk/en/support.html and type in your notebooks model number and find your audio driver. After the install, you should find that it works again, *it did for me*XD
    Hope this has been of help.

  • Integrated microphone stopped working suddenly on my HP i-7 DV6! I tried everything!

    Hi guys! Thanks to anyone seeing this. My laptop's integrated microphone stopped working suddenly. I have daily skype meetings and it worked perfectly fine but today it suddenly didn't work. I didn't make any significant changes before that.
    I tried uninstalling and installing the drivers from the website but when I uninstalled, the new drivers said that a device is missing. I cannot paste the error message exactly how is written for you because it is in greek. but the translation is that a device part is missing or something.
    after that I've done a system restore went back 4 days and I have now my drivers back but the microphone still isn't working.
    I figured out that if i plug my apple headphones i can hear audio but it doesnt detect my recording. (i dont know if it's supposed to anyway!
    Thanks in advance to anyone that might have a solution!

    Thank you for this. You are amazing for trying to help me. I kept on not being able to find the solution for 2 days and no voice application worked until yesterday evening. I logged into an online shop and bought a headset costing £10. As long as I entered my details and pressed PAY, my girlfriend called me on skype and voila, she could hear me. I think there might be something wrong with the insides of my laptop! Might be a significant amount of dust and dirt.
    Thank you very much again. If this happens again I will read this post again carefully and get back to you.

  • Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

    Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

    Sighhhh, wasted so much time yesterday and today going around Sony centre and then carphone warehouse. They told me to come back after Easter.
    I came home, banged the phone against the wall and it worked.
    Turned out that mic was working on loud speaker and when using headphones so I thought that the secondary mic is working and the main one (placed with the speakers) isn't. So I banged that part against the wall slightly (in plastic case to prevent scratches) then put the phone underwater, waited for it to dry and now it's working. Idk how well and if it's of perfect quality again but people can hear me well.

  • Internal Webcam and Microphone not working after Screen Fix

    I own a HP Envy Spectre XT Ultrabook, and last week I tried to use the webcam and the microphone for the first time in a few months.
    However I was shocked to find that Skype kept saying that the webcam was not detected. The microphone also could not register any sound.
    Device Manager did not show any imaging devices or the webcamera, even after setting it to view non-present devices.
    A check using msinfo32 did not review the webcamera either, and there were no problem devices.
    Control Panel >> Sound showed that the Internal Microphone using IDT High Definition Audio Codec was enabled and working, however it could not detect any sound. All drivers are checked to be up-to-date.
    I suspect this has something to do with the screen repair last month which a HP on-site technician came down to replace my screen, although I cannot be 100% sure. Although the screen is now working, the technician did not do a good job reassembling the screen - the bottom left corner of the screen cover has not be able to attach properly to the screen. 
    I have gone through my BIOS setup to make sure that there is no webcam disabled.
    I have tried rolling-back and reinstalling the drivers for the microphone but it did not work.
    I have tried uninstalling CyberLink YouCam (laptop preinstalled webcam software).
    Please help, these two components are very important to me as I am going overseas soon. The laptop is still under warranty.

    Hey ajun,
    Thank you very much for the information!
    For troubleshooting your Webcam, I would suggest taking a look at the document Webcam Troubleshooting (Windows 7). I would suggest the two options Video does not appear in your webcam software (such as YouCam, Skype, Messenger, ect.), and Webcam is not listed in Device Manager.
    For your internal microphone not working either, please take a look at the document Resolving Microphone and Line-in Problems (Windows 7). From this document, I would suggest following the top two symptoms.
    Please let me know the outcome of these troubleshooting steps.
    Good luck, and have a great day!

    ValentinT, welcome to the forum.
    There are no drivers available for Windows 8.  I suggest checking in the Control Panel/Sound/Recording to assure that your microphone is selected.  It seems that the Sound is one area that gets changed when updating to Win 8.1.  At least, this is what happened to me.

  • Internal Microphone not working with Quicktime and some other apps, yet it does for Skype.

    Internal Microphone not working with Quicktime and some other apps, yet it does for Skype. 
    Microphone works fine with Quictime on another mac, so I do know how to use it. The one where it is not working (A) had an external microphone and camera attached earlier, and indeed it does work with that external microphone, but not with the internal microphone selected; and (B) had RealPlayer installed previously.
    Any suggestions, please?

    Hi,

  • Integrated mic Not Working

    I have a N100 3000 System and I can't get my integrated microphone to work. I am running windows Vista and have dowloaded the latest audio drivers. Anyone know what else can I do? Also, does anyone know the model of the integrated microphone?

    I have a 3000 N100 (0768) and a similar problem. The audio device is SoundMAX. The mic doesn't work, internal or external. It's my first laptop where two devices are shown - one for playback (HD Audio 0) and one for recording (HD Audio 1). The Properties button for the mic is inactive (grey) and in the volume options it's shown as disabled. I bought the laptop used and don't know if the mic is in order. Is it even possible that only the mic is defective and the rest of the audio device is OK? Can I make it work?

  • Internal Microphone not working for L505D-S5983 (PLEASE HELP!)

    Hi,
    I can't seem to get my internal microphone to work. I have enabled it under Sound->Manage Audio Devices
    ->Recording tab. However the green vertical bar does not detect any voice. After setting the Microphone boost to +40dB, it detected some noise (since it has some green light) but I realized it wasn't detecting my voice. Since this did not work, I re-set the Microphone boost to only +10dB.  I only have one internal microphone and no external microphone. 
    I have seen many postings on internal microphones not working on Toshiba laptops but couldn't find a solution to mine. Can someone please help? I think it's about time that Toshiba fix this issue after the countless complaints.
    FM.

    No mentions of reinstalling the sound driver. That sometimes turns on the microphone.

  • USB webcam microphone not working with Starcraft 2 voice chat

    =USB webcam microphone not working with Starcraft 2 voice chat?Windows 7, X-fi Fatalty Pro
    I have a webcam with ?a built in microphone (Ps3 eye). ?It is connected by USB. ?The drivers are the CL-Eye drivers; a third party driver set since Sony does not directly support the eye for PC.
    in the windows audio device management, the microphone appears as normal and is set as the default device. ?I can use the windows sound recorder to record me speaking just fine. ?However if I use any other applications it doesn't seem to work at all. ?I can select the device as the default recording device in Starcraft 2 as well as Teamspeak 3 but no sound is detected. ?The USB microphone does not show up as a selectable device in recording options in my Creative Control Panel. ?Disabling the default creative microphone does nothing.
    I think the problem is in that windows can directly detect the microphone and so software that uses the windows audio device manager works fine, but anything that talks directly with my sound card software does not properly detect the microphone. ?Basically, I can select the device as a default device but it does not work.
    Any thoughts on this or am I SOL and have to find myself a shiny new headset?

    I had the same problem. You need to check the device index of your USB mic.
    In my case. I'm on a Mac OSX 10.6 system. I had four devices cataloged. With the last one being the USB mic.
    Then set like so in your AS code audioPub.microphoneManager.micIndex = 3;
    Remember, that the indexing is 0 based.
    The sound framework make the assumption that the index is 0.
    Hope that helps.
