Internal Mic and Bluetooth not working together at the same time

Okay.. so I've been noticing this happen alot lately. Whenever I have my usb wacom tablet plugged in (which is almost always), there would be no internal mic input and bluetooth would become "not unavailable". Also, even when I try an external mic, there was no input. Could this be a coincidence or some related usb-bluetooth problem? Could it be my audio input or tablet driver problem?
I've used my mic to skype before I had installed the tablet. Also before I used garage band to record my sister's guitar with an external mic, there was no problem at all, and of course I didn't have my tablet plugged in at the time. Recorded a whole hours worth of music, and didn't have any problems.
Today.. I checked to see if my internal mic was working before I launched skype, and it was working perfectly, and I also noticed my bluetooth was available (didn't test it though). Then I went on skype talked to friend for about 20min, and suddenly the audio stop working. I had my tablet plugged in from earlier today. I restarted my macbook (with no tablet plugged in) and still mic input isn't working. I tried and external mic, but still nothing. I tried uninstalling skype, still nothing.
This is not the first time this happened, I noticed it would somehow fix itself after a few days every time, and mic and bluetooth would start working again out of nowhere. Which makes it even more weird.
Need help pleaseee!
PS. I tried getting someone to fix it before(a few months ago- I don't really use my mic or bluetooth much), but when I brought it in and started up my mac, at that time it was working again. But now it isn't working =(

UPDATE: I just noticed my bluetooth was no longer "unavailable", so I quickly went into system preferences, and noticed that my internal mic input had some input! Very weak though, only 1-2 bars. So what does this mean?

I bought my iphone5 from vodafone and camera not working. If i bring it in to apple store will they fix it for me? phone is only a week old.

I recently had an iphone from vodafone and the camera was not working when i recieved it. Will apple still fix it even though it was taken out from vodafone will the apple store still fix it for me?
Thanks
Sion

Yes they certainly will
Always use an Apple Store for service .If the iphone is defective they will exchange it on the spot
It is an Apple warranty and their customer service is excellent but make an appointment it will avoid a wait
Back up any info as if faulty you will not see your unit again

Hi @abdallah2020
Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
I understand that you are having trouble with the drivers for your notebook. Where did you find them online?
The supported and HP customized drivers for your notebook are only available for windows 7. Please see the following:
HP Pavilion dv6-6176ex Entertainment Notebook PC Drivers
For any drivers you find elsewhere for windows 8, there is no guarantee that it would work. Although it is certainly possible. Most notebook manufacturers do customize the drivers for the set of hardware in a unit. You can check out the following for suggestions and the reasons some drivers are not made.
What if I Don't See My Operating System?
If you wish to try the windows 7 installation, then the drivers are at the page I included.

Audio and Camera not working Macbook air

I got my macbook air as a present from a relative and it seemed to work nicely even though I think it was used before. I took pics and watched videos on it before, but all of a sudden the sound would not work so I would restart my laptop and then it would work again but now even restarting it wont work the option to use the built in speakers is not there anymore. I wanted to facetime my friend and it says no that there is no connected camera. I do not know what to do. I really want to get back to watching stuff and taking pics please help me !!!!

Hello fridamente123,
Thanks for the question. After reviewing your post, it sounds like the iSight camera and internal speakers are not working. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.

Dv7-6059eo, microphone and camera not working, have re-installed the system, updated drivers etc.

Hello. A couple of days ago, my microphone and camera suddenly stopped working. When I started up my camera in Skype, it said "Please open YouCam" or something like that, and when I did, it told me to update it. So I did. Then it told me that I had to uninstall the current version of YouCam. When I did and tried to install the update, it said something like "no video device detected".
After updating drivers and un-/installing things, I recovered my whole computer to fabric options. Still not working. So I suspect that it might have something to do with the hardware. Although I don't know what should have caused it, as it just happened randomly in the middle of the day.

Try the User Tip suggestions first. Your system does need a plist, but a properly working OS X automatically generates any needed plist files when you launch the associated app (if its plist does not already exist.)

N900 Media Player and Camera not working

Hello,
I am having some problems with my phone which I think might be related to gstreamer.
When I open the camera cover and the camera tries to launch I get the error message "Operation failed". Media player also does not work, I can see the media files but when I try playing them nothing happens.
I used gstreamer to capture images for an application that I created and it has always worked fine until recently, when I started noticing the problems with the camera and media player.
Between the time everything was working and now, this is what I have done:
-installed OpenGL ES 2
-installed Qt
-copied a bunch of screenshots from the phone to my Mac (i think I just did it through bluetooth but I might have used the usb cable)
Here is what I have done to try to fix the problem:
-connect the phone via usb to a windows computer, rightclick the n900 icon and error check (as recommended on this forum)
-update the firmware using app manager
-reboot
-type dmesg in the terminal after opening the lens cover - that did not output any errors
Could this be related to anything other than the gstreamer? If it is the gstreamer, should I try reinstalling it?
Any help would be appreciated
Best,
Eyrun

Thanks. The reason why I haven't done that yet is that the gstreamer libraries came with the phone as I got it and I am not sure what needs to be installed. It seems like there are many plugins and something called totem-gstreamer that I might need additionally. Do you know of any good references for how this should be done for N900? I haven't been able to find one. Also, I do think it is a little bit strange that all of a sudden gstreamer would stop working, that's why I wonder if it could be something else?
Best,
Eyrun

Control center and camera not working on lock screen

On the lock screen my control center or camera sometimes doesn't pull up! Also the touchscreen doesn't work sometimes while just using the phone like when typing or in a game. I've tried resetting it and restarting it! Is this a software bug? Will there be an update To fix this?

Hi Trevor318,
Thanks for the question. If I understand correctly, the touchscreen does not respond sometimes and control center doesn't come up. I would recommend that you read these articles, they may be helpful in troubleshooting your issue.

Wifi and Camera not working on Lenovo G50-45 80e300rgin

I bought the laptop Lenovo G50-45 80e300rgin and installed Windows 8.1 on it. The problem is that when i launch the camera app it shows that 'No camera found' whereas the camera driver was installed successfully. The other problem is that there is no trace of wifi when searching for it whereas wifi is turned on from the BIOS and the laptop is not on airplane mode. I later disocvered that Device Manager shows no wifi device. Please Help!!

hi priyamdubey ,
Welcome to Lenovo COmmunity Forums!!
Do you have any device under device manager that has a yellow symbol? as it may be the wireless without proper driver.
If the Wireless device is really not showing under device manager and it is on on BIOS, then it is a detection issue. the Wifi Device may not be physically detected by the computer,
Try restoring the bios to defaults by hitting F9 then F10 to save and exit.
The same might be happening to the Webcam

HELP - N90 flip and camera not working

Hi, I've recently changed the cover on my N90 and now for some unknown reason my camera seems to have disappeared from my menu, my external screen doesn't work and funnily enough, neither does my camera!
I've replaced the original nokia cover (just in case i missed something) but this doesn't solve the problem...
Can anyone offer any suggestions at all please??

That is indeed odd. What has the cover to do with the camera?? strange. try using the shortcut for the camera, perhaps it starts. while on the main screen, pres the "up" button. the camera should start. if it doesn`t , what does it appear?
You say that the camera has dissappeared from the menu, that really sounds **bleep**py. Try re-installing the main software on your phone (personally, i don`t know how to do this, search the web).

Mic and Cam won't work on iChat

Hello
I have a new mac pro, so I am a beginner! However, I know that the cam is working and that there is a function mic because when I can see it on My Display iSight. I see me, and I see the audio. But on iChat the camera and phone icons are not green and I cannot use them.
Moreoever, in google talk I do have a camera icon, but when I try and call people on google talk they cannot hear me! I can't find anything about the mic anywhere.
Please, anything you can do to help would be awesome.

Hi Cathjoy,
IF in System Preferences > Sound you can see the Sound Blue Bar in the Input Tab move at least half way (preferably 3/4) - then you need to check ichat in a couple/three of places.
1) In the View Menu of iChat make sure "Show Video Status" (And Audio) is selected (Ticked). (this shows the green Audio and Video Icons)
2) In the Video Menu of iChat again both Mic and Camera Enabled item should have a tick next to it (Selecting toggles it On or Off)
3) In the iChat Menu > Preferences > Video section there should be a Microphone drop down and your choice here should match the one in System Preferences > Sound > Input tab and you should see the Green bar here move when you talk.
When doing 1) make sure the correct Buddy List is the "Front" Window (Your own icon may still display as a Video one if another Buddy List is set to Video in iChat 4 and iChat 5)

Lightroom will not import my photos. It did up to a week ago. I have changed cards and cameras (both worked two weeks ago). I can import the photos to Picasa and iPhoto

Lightroom will not import my photos. It did up to a week ago. I have changed cards and cameras (both worked two weeks ago). I can import the photos to Picasa and iPhoto. I get the following error message:
Some import operations were not performed.
The following files were not imported because they could not be read [followed by a list of the files I wanted to import]
Thumbnails show up. LR just will not import them.
Any idea what is going wrong?

If the Import button is not clickable, that means that Lightroom thinks you have no new photos to import (one possible reason is that they are duplicates)
So, you need to figure out why Lightroom thinks that. The way I would do this is to search your Library module for at least one of the photos, by file name. To do this, you would follow all 4 of these steps in sequence:
Click on All Photographs in the Catalog Panel on the left of the Library Module
Turn off all Filters (Ctrl-L or Cmd-L once or twice)
Expand all stacks: Photo->Stacking->Expand All Stacks
Search for one or more of the photos using the Filter Bar (press backslash), search by File Name
