ITunes volume lowers when I received Facebook chat message

This just happened for the first time tonight. Whenever I receive a message on Facebook chat, my iTunes volume drops very far. I can still hear it, but barely. And a while after the message is sent it comes back to full volume.
Is there some way I can turn this off? It's terribly annoying.

Hi there,
I think I found the answer. If you go to Control Panel, then hardware and sound. Click on Sound, then go to the communications tab. If I'm correct, what should be selected is that Windows reduces all other sounds by 80% when it detects communication activity. What I'm guessing is that the facebook chat 'pop' you hear is taken by Windows to be incoming communication warranting a reduction in sound. Change this to 'Do Nothing', and you should be all good.

  • Was not receiving Facebook chat messages through Skype, unlinked Facebook and can no longer link

    Hi there, I noticed I was no longer receiving Facebook messages in Skype, I followed some recommendations to unlink my Facebook account from Skype, which I did via the web interface, now I cannot seem to link it again. When I click the "Learn More" it just shows me how to sign in to Skype with my Facebook account. I don't want to sign in using my Facebook account. I want to continue to use my Skype ID and chat to my Facebook friends from there. Can this still be done?

    Skype dropped support for Facebook because Facebook decided to change it's data sharing policy. It means that no 3-rd party application can' t connect to Facebook now. It's business as usual. Only thing is to hope that Skype can push Facebook to make some exceptions for Skype, in the name of Skype community.

  • Is there a way to prevent Itunes' volume from lowering when I receive texts and email?

    Whenever I have my iphone connected to a speaker, the volume lowers when I receive a text or email. This can be very frustrating and I'm wondering if there is a setting to prevent this from happening. Can anyone help?

  • When I receive an SMS message, how do I find out the phone number it came from?

    When I receive an SMS message from a person in my address book, the Messages app in my iPhone shows the name of the person who sent the message.  At the top of the conversation, I can tap the word "Contact", which brings up the Contact's name, a phone icon, a camera icon, and a letter i in a circle.  If I tap the i, it brings up the sender's record from my address book.  How do I know which of the sender's multiple phone numbers is the number that he sent the message from?

  • I can delete my Facebook Chat messages from my Desktop PC but I can't from my IPad.

    How do I delete Facebook  chat messages from my IPad?

    The Facebook Application doesn't have the full funtionality of the desktop versions.  There is actully other things you can't do the from the Ipad that you can do on the desktop version.
    All you can do is send feedback to Facebook to update the Ipad version for more functionality.

  • Itunes volume reduces when visiting different web pages

    I just started noticing that whenever I visit any page that has some kind of built in sound (even if it's some embedded video that's not playing) while playing music the volume for my itunes gets reduced to almost zero.
    The actual volume bar in the itunes program doesn't move, but level for itunes in the windows audio mixer (I'm using windows 7) automatically gets dropped, and I have to manually increase it. It's gotten really annoying since it seems to do this almost everytime I navigate to a different page.
    Does anyone know how to make this stop happening? Thanks!

    You have discovered a new feature of Windows 7! To adjust it, go to Control Panel > Hardware and Sound > Sound > Manage Audio Devices, and look at the "Communications" tab. (Yes I know that is a lot of clicking!) The default setting is to reduce volume 80% when something new comes in, but you can adjust it on that tab.

    I have an itunes account on a pc running Windows Vista.  After a failed update I can no longer open my itunes account.  I receive 2 messages.  The first says "unable to locate component MSVCR80.clll".  Ther other is an error message which says "Error 7 (Windows error 126).  It was suggested that reinstalling itunes might solve the problem.  After doing so I receive the same messages.  What now?

  • How do help my students log into their persona accounts when they receive the error message "Internal Server Error?"

    2 students received this error message when they are trying to connect their forallbadges.com accounts to their openbadges accounts. After receiving this error message during our class time, I wasn't even able to log in to their persona accounts. When I enter their email and password info, I then click Sign In but nothing happens. I'm kept on the same page.
    We are using MacBooks running Lion. This is the case in Chrome, Firefox, and Safari. Thanks for any help you can provide. Debbie Blair

    Hi there. I just tried connecting to open badges backpack through forallbadges using a student account that was receiving an internal error message. There was no change. The student account is still receiving the same error message. I've attached a screen shot of the error message.
    There were also a few students that never received a verification email from persona after they created an account through forallbadges. It looks like the accounts are receiving an email that weren't receiving them before. I tried to create a persona account with a student that hadn't received a verification email and now she did! Everything then worked perfectly! I guess the programming update fixed that problem.

  • Can't receive groupp chat messages or files

    Until literally an hour ago, skype worked fine. But recently, very suddenly, I could receive neither files nor messages in group chats (not sure if all chats or just some) unless I went offline and online again or restarted my client. I tried deleting my skype file in appdata, but that didn't work. I'm running an old version, 6.20.0.104, but I don't think that's the problem as, like I previously mentioned, it worked until an hour ago. Another friend has a similar problem, but his only pertains to a few chat rooms and nothing allows him to see the messages at all. He's running version 7.6.0.105. Neither of us has received any error message or other sign of things amiss, besides group chats not receiving messages. This resolved after a few minutes, but it's still VERY laggy and I'm worried it might relapse. Is there anything I can do, and suggest my friend do?

    Is Cellular Data enabled?
    Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
    Have you tried a reset or restart of the device?
    Have you contacted the carrier?
    Have you tried anything?   If so, what?

  • No Chat support? Waiting for death on facebook chat(messaging)/posts? Need device troubleshooting support, not just happening today! I want to talk to corporate!

    I have been waiting for a device support person for over an hour now with no availability. I have waited for a shopping tips rep for over half an hour to get around my device issue. I contacted Andrea on facebook and have waited 20+ minutes each time for a reply multiple days. She also asked for the last 4 of my social on facebook chat which is not reasonable at all, she does not need to be in my account to assist me. I have posted on facebook a post and got a reply in a few minutes then have been waiting for 20 minutes and still no reply form Sandy. I want to talk to Corporate, with no run around of someone faking they are from corporate. This is ridiculous! Proof device support is not up! Get your crap together! I want immediate contact from Verizon Corporate with no excuses and an explanation!

    This is how I make chat work:  Go to the Verizon homepage, make sure I am LOGGED OUT.  Then go to the Contact Us page.  Scroll to Live Chat, choose issue and LOG IN there.
