No 5.1 out from Creative Speaker Settings

... or applications. SB Li've 24 bit external.
selecting 5. and doing the channel test gives me every channel voice in both the front left/right at the same time
select 2. gives correct left/right speaker selection.
i have checked the settings in the audio control panel and it is set to 5. there
playing back a dvd in power dvd in 6 channel mode only gives the front left/right , no centre or rear. you only notice this when people start speaking and you can't hear them!
any ideas?

forgot to say, if i enable eax and play a stereo source, i get sound from the rears

Audio out from internal speaker, how?

I purchased iPhone 3G 8GB, before that I have been using iPod touch. With iPod touch audio from games etc came out from internal speaker if I did not plug earphones. But for some reason that does not work with iPhone 3G.
Only very few apps uses internal speaker with iPhone 3G, like iPod app. But rest of apps does not play audio before I plug earphones. Is there away to fix this or is there something wrong with my new iPhone 3G? I purchased two days a go.

all sound should come out of speaker if headset isn't plugged in. check in sound settings that "silent" vibrate isn't on.
also some apps have there own volume settings so even if you turn the apps sound down the phones other sound stays the same, such as the ringer..

I need the Audigy 2 Creative Speaker Settings Util

I have an OEM Audigy 2 card. I need Audigy 2 Creative Speaker Settings utility so I can use the "re-direct bass" option to get my subwoofer in my 5. headphones to work. However when I go to install the utility of course I get that annoying "device not detected" error. Does anyone know a way around this besides buying a retail version of this card? Would like to get my hands on a CD if possible.

You can find the link to download whole Creative installation CD from this patch (ctcomp.exe) (thanks to DVDKingdom), run it, have it point to the \Audio\Setup folder of the full software suite that you extracted, and then proceed with patching. If you?ve also downloaded the updated driver file from Creative?s site, you must run the patch again and point it to the main folder where you extracted it to. The application updates need no modification.
I've done this Zs -patching, and it works well.

IMAC freezing, hang during startup, loud noise coming out from the speaker

I am using the iMAC i3 Intel based which i bought it just a month ago
Last week it hang, freeze just like that without me launch any application just yet
I hold the ON button for a restart, and it freeze during the startup
One more thing, sometimes when it freeze, there's a noise coming out from the speaker ( just like there is no signal from the TV )
Already sent it to the Apple Service Center but they tell me it is free from any error, but by the time i bring it back home, not even 12 hours, it freeze again just like that with loud noises coming out from the speaker.
Btw did i mention, sometimes there's also a screen distortion
Please somebody help me

I've experienced similar symptoms to the original poster's description. I have an iMac 27" 2010 model. This may be related to the following:
I've looked on numerous forums regarding the freezing problem I was having. This problem would arise on a wide range of systems.
Symptoms included but were not all always present - usually when I am loading the system with games/heavy load processes:
- Full system freeze, screen still on.
- Loud cracking noise coming from speakers (relative to what volume was at when the freeze happened).
- Computer asleep but I cannot wake up unless hard reset with power button.
- My screen backlight was also damaged (permanently dimmed) near the left side, and progressively got worse over time. This was fixed (replaced LCD 27" display $600+ and covered by my creditcard extended warranty)
Basically, what I've come to realize which has not been well documented as far as I could find relating to this problem - is that the system is overheating and causing these freezing errors (and LCD damage in my case). Prologned occurances could result in different system part failures.
How do you fix the overheating problem? Give this a try, it's worked so far for me and I've actually been able to continue video/photo editing without having this annoying freeze.
Search for and download 'iStat Pro' (widget addon that lets you monitor your system temperatures... compare it before and after the fix)
Search for and download 'SMCFanControl (a great little app that allows you to change your system fan speeds) - I did not know this was possible, and have never heard the fans go this high when it was being run automatically by the system. The fan's are obviously louder when set to max, but is well worth the system cooling results.

"Sign out from creative cloud" is greyed out.

Hi
When I open CREATIVE CLOUD preferences --> General --> account
"Sign out from creative cloud" is always greyed out.
I want to sign out from creative cloud and sign in with different adobe Id.
thanks
Chandu

Hi Chandub,
This might indicate that the Creative Cloud app is not loading completely or doesn't have sufficient user rights to finish loading.
Are you on Windows or Mac? If you are on Windows, you might try launching the app by using right-click Run As Administrator, if you are on Mac see if the same behavior happens from a newly created admin account.
There is also an option with the Adobe Cleaner tool to remove all Adobe ID info, option 10.
Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
Hope that helps,

[solved] ctxfi -- Sound comes out from one speaker, sometimes...

Hi
I have a Creative X-Fi.
I installed kernel26 from the testing repository in order that I could use the card with Arch Linux, and therefore alsamixer detects my card.
I am able to play a sound file, however: sound only comes out from my front-right speaker. I have surround sound, and at the very least music should play from my front-left speaker, too.
I opened Amarok earlier on and inside the preferences where you can pick the audio device, there are lots of different devices, and when selecting some of them I was able to get the sound to come out from either the back two speakers, the front-right speaker, or the front-center speaker. As of yet, I've not been able to get the front-left speaker to work, and I am not sure how to get this all to work outside of fiddling about on a amarok preferences page.
Does anybody have any tips?

Have u ran alsamixer? That isnt for card detection alsamixer is to adjust sound levels.. alsaconf is whats used for detection. If you havent gone in there do it or if you have a graphical setup download the alsamixer gui version. Another thing is considering your sound card it might be installing as hda not legacy.. run dmesg and look for any troubles with in there involving sound card.. usually its a codec issue and you need to use the correct module in the alsa module conf file.. alsa comes with a text file containing all sound card model types with their respective codecs.

Log in impossible / Immediately Logged out from Creative Cloud

All was running perfectly, but today after doing some update on my macbook pro, I could not connect to my CC anymore. When I tried to connect, instantly it wrote : You have been logged out (see image). When i try to open a programm like Photoshop a window appears and tell me to register my products…

3. Type: ~/Library
4. Hit return
5. Navigate to: Application support/Adobe/OOBE
6. Under this delete OPM.db file.
7. Now restart the CC desktop application and sign in.

X-fi Elite pro DIN out and Creative speak

hello,
I have the elite pro and megaworks 550 speakers, I have tried to connect the DIN cable from the I/o console to my sub instead of the original speakers remote control. but it is not work..it's won't turn my speakers on.
Is someone succeed to do that? maybe with another speakers? someone know how to fix it's
Thank you very much.

Some 8 months later people like me are still falling into this same trap.
The External console is NOT compatible with the Megaworks & Gigaworks speakers (even the 7. versions) or so I am told by Customer Support after 6 weeks of working through the issues.
Why Creative would design this incompatability into there premier products is beyound me

No sound is coming out from the speaker

I am a novice. I can't hear any sound from my speakers, not even when I turn my laptop on. There are no mute selections on my sound / volume control.

I spoke too soon!!! :( :( Sound came back just fine, re-installed Real Player, and not long after the sound went again. Went to System Restore again but the previous earlier point was now gone - and no other System Restores could get the sound back.
So I know the sound works, it's a conflict somewhere - where, I am not sure. Probably with Real Player but even with it uninstalled, the sound doesn't come back, so if it is RP, whatever it did to tweak the sound doesn't get undone with an uninstall?
Very frustrating. It looks like my Norton is corrupted too, which may be a virus but I am not sure yet. And I have only had this computer a week!!!! :( Very unhappy at the moment. Do not want to have to re-install everything and re-load all files and programs I just spent the last few days doing, especially if the same thing will happen again!
Any tips or ideas or if it is a Vista problem or what, please let me know!

I can't log out of Creative Cloud

My friend was using my computer and put his log in information into my Creative Cloud
Now if I go to Preferences > Account, I see his log in but the option for "Sign Out From Creative Cloud" is grey, I'm unable to click on it
I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling with no luck, I still can't log out of his account. Please help

Solution:
I just spoke with someone on the "Install Team" about this and here are the steps to fix the problem.
Open "Activity Monitor" and click on "Adobe Daemon" then click "Quit Process".
Click on "Adobe Creative Cloud" or "Creative Cloud" and then click "Quit Process".
Then while in the "Finder" in the Apple Menu bar at the top of your computer click on "Go" to open the dropdown and click "Go to Folder"
You will get a window with a field, type "~/Library", open the folder "Application Support", open the folder "Adobe", find and trash the folder "OOBE"
Go back to the "Finder" in the Apple Menu bar at the top of your computer click on "Go" to open the dropdown and click "Go to Folder
You will get a window with a field, type "/Library", open the folder "Application Support", open the folder "Adobe", find the folder "caps" and rename it "caps_old"
Launch the Creative Cloud app again and you should be prompted to sign in.
This worked on my desktop running Lion OS 10.7.5 and on my laptop running Yosemite OS 10.10.1
If you want to call Adobe and have them walk you through it call 1-800-833-6687. My call took about 24 minutes and I allowed them to remote control my desktop using "Join me" which is a "Logmein" product.

With 20DB boost, mic input comes out from speaker - SB X-Fi XtremeMusic

If? +20DB boost is turned on, michrophone input or my voice comes out from the speakers even "Listen to this device" is unchecked on the Sound setting. If I start playing music by WMP under this condition and raise tthe speaker volume above certain level the system starts oscillation or noise dominates the speaker output. I wonder if I am not using the +20DB boost correctly. I have just gotten this sound card and am not yet familliar with [email protected]

Hi Catherina,
I do not have a Logitech webcam and have never owned one. The problem with REAR channels being reversed was resolved after uninstallation of the X-Fi and subsequent reinstallation. I use the CD that came with the card and install the normal package plus the Volume Panel. After that, I install the latest drivers from the Creative website. (not the BETA drivers)
Oddly, when I uninstalled it the first time and then reinstalled it using the CD (before installing the latest web release), the REAR channel was mapped correctly to the REAR speakers only even with the digital connection in place. The problem came back after I installed the web release.
However, the problem of the REAR channel being heard from FRONT speakers still persists even after I have uninstalled the X-Fi and reinstalled it from scratch multiple times. (with or without installing the web release)

Hi Venkata from NZ,
If you are having an issue with the speaker on your iPhone, I would suggest that you troubleshoot using the steps in this article -
If you hear no sound or distorted sound from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch speaker - Apple Support
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
