Hello @Pistaba1975,
Welcome to the HP Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I have read your post on how the microphone on your notebook is enabled, but will not record any audio on Skype. I would be happy to assist you in this matter!
Are you able to record audio using a different program on your computer? Were you able to record audio from Skype in the past? 
In the meantime, I recommend following the steps in this document on Resolving microphone problems (Windows 8). This should help enable the audio-in when using the microphone.
Additionally, I also suggest following this resource on Microphone Troubleshooter to ensure that your Skype software is communicating the audio being transmitted to your audio-in device.
Please re-post with the results of your troubleshooting, as well as the requested information above. I look forward to your reply!
Regards
MechPilot

  • ITunes says computer not authorized. When I try to authorize computer it says it is already authorized but will not play song

    iTunes says computer not authorized. When I try to authorize computer it says it is already authorized but will not play song. Note. Library was moved from PC to MAC. I am signed in to Itunes with the Apple ID created on the old computer which is different than the Apple ID used to set up the MAC.

    I'm experiencing the same thing under iTunes 11.1.1:
    iTunes says the computer is not authorized, prompts me to authorize
    I enter my credentials, iTunes says computer is already authorized
    When I attempt to play song, iTunes starts at bullet point 1 above over again.
    My attempted fixes:
    I tried everything in this support document, to no avail: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1389 (Note: I cannot find a SC Info folder on my Mac)
    Deauthorize and then reauthorize computer
    Delete song and try to redownload from iTunes store - there's only a button that says 'purchased' with no option to redownload it
    Note: I am using only one iTunes account, and I double checked the song info - I'm authorizing the correct account - 12 songs from the same album purchased at the same time play fine. As does the song in question - from the finder. Only iTunes stubbornly refuses to play it.
    The most odd thing is that iTunes music is DRM free - the song in question was purchased only a few months ago. Thus there's no need to authorize the computer to play it.
    I was hoping that iTunes 11.1.1 would cure it - no dice.

  • HT3199 I have an apple TV 1st generation - it froze downloading a trailer and had to be unplugged.  Since then I cannot access the apple tv menu.  When I run diagnostics it says it is operating properly but will not factory restore.  What can I try?

    have an apple TV 1st generation - it froze downloading a trailer and had to be unplugged.  Since then I cannot access the apple tv menu.  When I run diagnostics it says it is operating properly but will not factory restore.  What can I try?

    Apologies, I was looking at the wrong schematic for the Apple TV 1. There isn't a button. So lets try this instead...
    Remove the power cord and wait 20 seconds.
    Plug it back in and let it boot (Give it 10 minutes, it's being tempremental)
    Try and navigate to the the advanced menu and do a factory restore
    If that doesn't work then if you are using the white remote hold down the menu button for six seconds and release this should bring up a hidden menu which will allow you to access the advanced configuration settings.
    Again, if this fails there isn't much to do than tap it with a hammer to see if that fixes it (hard to believe how many times that actually works. (No responsibility taken if it breaks!, but at least you'd have a good reason to buy Apple TV 3)

  • My apple  pad 1 has voice that says to slide to unlock but will not let me out in my pass code

    my apple i pad I has voice message that says to slide to unlock but it will not let me put in my pass code. I tried to go into i tunes but i need the passcode to due that.

    If it's saying what is on screen then you probably have VoiceOver (one of the accessibility features) 'on'. Try triple-clicking the home button and see if that turns it off, and if it does you can then change what a triple-click does via Settings > General > Accessibility > Accessibility Shortcut (or Triple-Click Home depending upon the iOS version on your iPad).
    If that doesn't turn it off then you can either turn it off directly on the iPad (you need to use a tap-to-select and then double-tap to activate/type process and 3 fingered scrolling) to go into Settings > General > Accessibility and turn VoiceOver 'off', or you should be able to do it by connecting to your computer's iTunes (after typing in your passcode via the tap/double-tap process) : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5018

  • Itunes keeps saying this computer already authorized, but will not sync with iphone ?

    Itunes will not sync with my IPhone 5s any longer.  It keeps saying that my PC is unauthorized.  But, when I go to authorize, it says it's already authorized, but of course, will not sync even though it's logged in and authorized.  ????  *** ?

    Usually that means you have content, such as apps or media, on the mobile device that was acquired from Apple under a different Apple ID than the one you're using with iTunes. The only way out is to remove that content, or else to sign in to the iTunes Store with the other ID.

  • Wifi will say that it is working but will not load any pages.

    I’ve been having this problem for a while on my MacBook. It will connect to my home network and the little indicator says it is connected but whenever I try to load a page nothing will happen. I’ve tried a lot of things that haven’t worked and the router works for my roomates. I upgraded to mavericks and I think that has something to do with it. But I haven’t seen my specific problem on here so I thought I would give it a shot. If you have any suggestions that would be very helpful.  Thanks.

    Back up all data before making any changes.
    Step 1
    Take all the applicable steps in this support article. If you're running OS X 10.8.4 or later, run Wireless Diagnostics and take the remedial steps suggested in the summary that appears, if any. The program also generates a large file of information about your system, which would be used by Apple Engineering in case of a support incident. Don't post the contents here.
    Step 2
    Run Software Update and install all available updates for OS X or your computer's firmware.
    Step 3
    If you're not using a wireless keyboard or trackpad, disable Bluetooth by selecting Turn Bluetooth Off from the menu with the Bluetooth icon. If you don't have that menu, open the Bluetooth preference pane in System Preferences and check the box marked Show Bluetooth in menu bar. Test. Continue if you find that Wi-Fi is faster with Bluetooth disabled.
    From that same menu, select Open Bluetooth Preferences. If the box labeled Discoverable is checked, uncheck it. Click the Advanced button, and in the sheet that opens, uncheck the top three boxes, if any are checked. Click OK. Enable Bluetooth and test again.
    If the application called "Bluetooth Setup Assistant" is running, quit it.
    Step 4
    This step will erase all your settings in the Network preference pane. Make a note of them before you begin, and recreate them afterwards. It may be helpful to take screenshots of the preference pane.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Reveal
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "SystemConfiguration" selected. Move the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator password.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
    Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar, paste into the box that opens (command-V). You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    Step 5
    Reset the System Management Controller.
    Step 6
    Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store, or go to another authorized service center.
    Back up all data on the internal drive(s) before you hand over your computer to anyone. There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional — ask if you need guidance.
    If privacy is a concern, erase the data partition(s) with the option to write zeros* (do this only if you have at least two complete, independent backups, and you know how to restore to an empty drive from any of them.) Don’t erase the recovery partition, if present. 
    Keeping your confidential data secure during hardware repair
    *An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.

  • Flash Player is enabled but will not play

  • ITunes says I have App updates- but will not update.

    I have restarted iTunes, the computer, downloaded the new update (8.1.1 is it?), and tried a million times. But no matter what, iTunes says I have 6 App updates. So I click on the "6 Updates Available" button, but all I get it that all of my app have been updated.
    I also thought that it might have to do with the fact that I had Apps that were my sister's put on my account using that whole "Authorize Computer" thing. Both of the computers are authorized. So I had her update hers, but it's still not working.
    So if anyone has anything that can help, it would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Andrea

    How I fixed the problem was to "select all" of my apps in itunes and right click and delete, but keeping my files.  The 1 update went away.  So I synced my ipad, and transfered my apps from the ipad back to the computer.
    By keeping the files when deleting them in iTunes then syncing them back from the iPad, you should now have two of all your apps in Music> iTunes> iTunes Media > Mobile Applications.

    The large text size makes your post almost impossible to read.
    Excessive use of bold or capitals (also) makes posts difficult to read.
    You can drag most of the column headings left or right, or right-click on the header to turn columns on or off.
    Once you've used File > Display Duplicates or Shift > File > Display Exact Duplicates you can use File > Display All or the Display All button at the bottom of the list to restore the display.

  • I have downloaded the latest Adobe Flash - it says successful but will not work. It says to 'Manage Plug-ins but the Plug-in says it is enabled but it will not work at all. I have tried disabling and then enabling - no success.

    There's two different versions of Flash. The ActiveX version for IE, and the Plugin version for other browsers. Did you install the correct version? This forum's software doesn't thing that Flash is installed for Firefox or the Plugin is disabled.
    1.Download the Flash setup file from here: <br />
    [http://fpdownload.adobe.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe Adobe Flash - Plugin version]. <br />
    Save it to your Desktop.<br />
    2. Close Firefox using File > Exit <br />
    then check the Task Manager > Processes tab to make sure '''firefox.exe''' is closed, <br />
    {XP: Ctrl+Alt+Del, Vista: Shift+Ctrl+ESC = Processes tab}
    3. Then run the Flash setup file from your Desktop.
    4. Start Firefox and test your installation here: https://www.adobe.com/software/flash/about/
    * On Vista and Windows 7 you may need to run the plugin installer as Administrator by starting the installer via the right-click context menu if you do not get an UAC prompt to ask for permission to continue (i.e nothing seems to happen). <br />

  • "Driver is enabled but has not been started" Help me, plea

    Hi. I have this, quite old, computer, that has always worked.
    For my 8th birthday I got a set of 5. speakers, and I realized that I don't have a soundcard that supports 5. speakers.
    I bought a sound card from Creative, and it worked perfectly!
    Now, just like 3 months ago, I was sitting, listening to music, and was going to send a friend a li've voice-clip on MSN-Messenger. I saw that the microphone wasn't working, so I just rebooted the comp in case I changed some settings (which I hadn't).
    I started the comp again, and learned that NO SOUND AT ALL was working. I was quite shocked, but then assumed my soundcard experienced a conflict of some sort, so I returned it to the store I bought it at.
    The same problem is still here, I have this brand new SoundBlaster card, but it says, if I start WinAmp for example: "Bad DirectSound driver. Please install proper drivers or select another device in configuration. Error Code: 88780078"
    And when I check my sound drivers in the control panel > Sound > Sound Blaster Audigy drivers > Audio Devices > Sound Blaster Audigy > Properties: "Status: Driver is enabled but has not been started yet."
    I've talked with a guy from Creative Nordic, but it seems like it won't help, even if he gives me instructions. I've tried switching PCI-ports, reinstalling software/drivers, reinstalled the card itself, disabling the OnBoard Soundcard in BIOS, NOTHING WORKS!
    It seems like I have to buy a new motherboard, or reinstall windows, but that seems abit unnecessary since the problems seems to be in my motherboard.
    If anyone knows anything about this PLEASE answer! I've been without sound for three months now =/
    Please ask if you wonder anything else concerning my problem, if it helps!!
    Kind regards,
    Babbas.Message Edited by Babbas on 09-8-200706:3 PM

    Sounds like you checked the digital output box. Go to the creative Speaker Settings and you should see the digital output box, uncheck it if its checked and that should fix you up. I see where alot of people do that and don't realize it. If thats no the case then I'm not sure, sorry

  • Get message "Driver is enabled, but has not been start

    I have a Soundblaster Audigy, which has been OK for quite some time. My PC runs XP.
    Recently it has stopped working. Now I get a message in the properties box of the driver saying "Driver is enabled, but has not been started". I have tried everthing I could find on Internet; reinstall, check enumerator is working, switching slots, etc. Nothing brings it back to li've. I am wondering if someone knows a trick to correct this situation without having to reinstall Windows XP. I really would appreciate some help.

    Apart from re-installing XP, which is by far the best option, you might first try a registry cleaner, try www.majorgeeks.com.
