No sound from headphone/speaker HP Pavilion g7 Notebook PC

my HP Pavilion g7 Notebook PC sound stopped working  about 4 weeks ago. normally i would go onto troubleshooting and just change to audio to default with my headset on and it would work but today sound stopped working. before this started I had deleted a ton of photos and a few things I thought we're not important but may have been. anyways so i deleted everything in my recycling bin, i do it once a month and must have deleted somthing important. halp?

Hi @Chaithra ,
Welcome to the HP Forums!
It is a terrific place to find answers.
For you to have the best experience in the HP forum I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide Learn How to Post and More
I understand from your post that you have sound in the right speaker but not the left.The two main reasons for this would be that the speaker has failed or your system is configured incorrectly.
Have you ran the HP Support Assistant  to aid with HP updates and fixing issues?
Have you tried running  MS Fix It to help with difficulties?
Have you tried Using automated troubleshooting (Windows 8)?
Here is a link to No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7) that will guide you though testing and configuring the speakers.
Here is a link to the HP G4 Notebook PC Maintenance and Service Guide. Please note on page 30 or chapter 3 page 22 item 8  for a part number for a replacement speaker should it be required.

  • No sound from right speaker on Pavilion g6-1353ea after installing Windows 8

    I've had no sound from right speaker on my HP Pavilion g6-1353ea after installing Windows 8. I've checked all drivers, and have done the sound test in sound properties (left speaker beeps fine, but then nothing from the right). Anyone else having this problem/found a solution?!

    Hi,
    Try the following.
    Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
    http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp59001-59500/sp59154.exe
    When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers.  Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
    When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery.  Hold  down the Power button for 30 seconds.  Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
    Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu.  Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.  Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
    Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete.  Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation.  When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices.  Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio in both speakers.

  • No sound from left speaker on Pavilion DV7-3128CA laptop

    I have a DV7 laptop that I purchased in May 2010.  I have always used headphones for this laptop.  Over the last few months, I had trouble getting audio from the left side of the headphones.  Usually I just adjusted the headphone cord and the problem went away.  As time progressed, it became increasingly difficult to get audio, but i figured it was just a loose connection on my headphones.  .  I then tried a different set of headphones in both headphone terminals and the same result, minimal audio at best.  It seems the right hand speaker on the jack is perfect, music and DVD's, it is just the left side of the audio on the headphone jacks.  Any suggestions?

    Only one of the jacks is for sound ouput. Take a close look and notice that one has an icon of a microphone and the otheris an icon of headphones. You will only get sound output if you connect the headphone (they usually have icons as well) 35mm plug to the proper jack on the notebook. Sound normally switches automatically from the speakers to the headphones when connected unless changes have been made to the Sound settings in Control panel.
    You should try the Microsoft Fixit center for the automated sound fixit utility.

  • Low and unclear sound from headphone HP Pavilion G6 2228tu

    laptop hp pavillion g6 2228TU  OS windows 8 pro 64 bit
    every thing was working fine.. but from last 2-3 days i faced a problem of low and cracking sound from headphone ..
    laptop speraker are working fine .. but when I connect headphone to audio port .. sounds comes out to be very low and unclear.
    I tried headphone with my desktop and mobile but it was working fine.
    I called HP custmor support.. they gave a link of sound driver.. i updated sound driver but no solution comes out..

    Hello Deepak-Kumar,
    You’re having a problem with the sound not be very loud.
    Go to device manager and uninstall the IDT audio.
    Do not restart the computer.
    Now install the updated sound driver.
    Since it has not been to long since the problem started, you can run a system restore.
    This will take the system back to when everything was working correctly without affecting your personal files.
    Here is a link on how to do a restore.
    Let me know how everything goes.
    Have a good day.

  • Sound from the speaker iPhone 4S 5.1.1. disappeared!?

Lost in the middle of a conversation with a friend whom I put on speakerfon, first started to choking and after that sound is disappeared, and than appears in the fraction of a second and after is completely gone. On two occasions it choking when I put some videos and that's all. There is no sound even when someone call me, only vibrates.

    Thanks

    I don't think that a software update from Apple will solve the issues that you are having. You have a rogue installation. After you posted I have just done the following:
    Disk Utility can verify  my partitioned Volume (including my boot disk) AND REPAIR the non-boot disks on the same Volume without a glitch. It repairs the non-boot disks containing data smoothly.
    I have used Mail to send some mails from some Yahoo and Hotmail accounts to my Thunderbird client containing GMail accounts - absolutely normal.
    I have iLife '09 but my iMovie '09 and iPhoto '09 open in a jiffy and I see no issues here. I have 6GB RAM (Maximum) on an early 2008 Macbook Pro with a 750GB hard drive partitioned with 120GB reserved for the Boot Drive.
    I am sorry that I cannot help further but I am sure there must be a way to reinstall the software without having to revert to restoring your ML backup. I have two clones and if you have such I would attempt to do that through that rather than through Time Machine - that is of course if you have a cloned drive.
    Good luck!

  • No Sound From Center Speaker [Win 7]

    $No Sound From Center Speaker [Win 7]? Hi,
    I downloaded the Darkest of Days demo and noticed that the speech volume was very low if i positioned it center of the camera. But if i positioned it on the left or right of the camera, the speech volume would increase. I found it strange.
    I closed the game. And ran my speakers through window's speaker test. Every speaker responded with a sound. Unconvinced, i opened a few songs. That's when i noticed the center speaker wasn't producing a sound. Even on 5. content (movies & music) the center speaker wouldn't work.
    **bleep**, no wonder those AC3 movies had low speech and i had to manually boost the speech volume. I noticed the low sound in games before too...but i attributed it to the 5. surround thing. Guess i was wrong!

    Hi
    Can you clarify that are getting the voice when you play the DVDs/CDs?If you are not getting the voice and you are getting the sounds only? Then there could be some connectivity issue for Center Speaker.Pl check the connections .. Regds Balu

  • No Sound From Headphone Jack, Only Internal Speakers working in Macbook Pro A1278

    Hello, the internal speakers of Macbook Pro A1278 OSX 10.7.5 are working perfectly, but no sound from headphones or external speakers when plugged in. Headphones/speakers recognized when plugged in, shown by System Preferences/Sound, and since the sound stops from internal speakers when headphones/speakers are plugged in. No red light seen coming from headphone jack, as I read in other posts. The problem began after a cable was connected between computer and stereo system. Maybe overloaded the sound card and burned out a connection? Wondering if you think that the sound card needs to be replaced or is there another solution possible? Thank you.

    Hello JohnBoarkman,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you hear no sound from your accessory when you connect to your headphone jack. My first troubleshooting suggestion for this situation would be resetting the NVRAM on your Mac. Please use the instructions in the attached article to complete this process and let me know if the issue continues.

  • No sound from the speaker and missing speaker device listed with Window 7

    I have Window 7 and with SB X-Fi card installed for a long time now but yesterday, there is no sound from the speaker which connected to the normal speaker output of the card. I check the output device and the specker device is missing. I tried to run the software but it says no device.
    How do I correct the problem?
    Thank you.

    Take it to your local Apple Store along with US$149 for a replacement.

  • No sound from left speaker headphone out

    Suddenly no sound coming from left speaker through headphone output only. Records in stereo plays in stereo but no sound on left. Tried all the usual suspects ....no luck.  Any suggestions

    Nowhere near enough information to go on, really. If this is a switched socket and the speaker works when it's not connected, then there's either a socket fault or a headphone fault.  Try it with another pair of headphones and see if it still happens. If it doesn't, you have faulty headphones. If it does, then you have some sort of a wiring or socket fault.

  • No sound from headphone or internal speaker

    I have an iPad 4th gen, there is no sound from the internal speaker, nor from the headphone jack.  I've swapped all parts in the ipad and another motherboard works, but this one is obviously stuck in some mode I can't really explain.  When I volume up or down while on the home screen, it shows volume up and down fine, but I think it should show ringer up and down.  I plugged in headphones, and unplugged them, and it gets stuck thinking headphones are plugged in, but there is no sound from the headphones.  Youtube videos do not play, they appear to start playing but they ultimately just sit there and never play.  Itunes store sample music does not play either.  I click on the song I want to play a sample of and the play/pause effect of the sample graphic flashes and nothing happens, like I never hit play.  I've tried airplay to my apple tv, and when I select apple tv from the bottom swipe up menu, it goes right back to the ipad, it will not try to air play. This is a very strange situation and I'd like any help I can get.  I've reset all settings, upgraded ios to the latest, cleaned out the headphone port, swapped the main headphone/camera/mic/volume button cables with working ones, I've changed the internal speaker with a working speaker...I'm stuck.

    Hi,
    As you mentioned, the HDMI sound may take over sound, disable HDMI sound may help. Pleae try:
    Right click the speaker icon
    Select Playback devices
    Right click HDMI sound and disable it

  • TS1630 My iPhone 4 says the headphones are in when they are not. I am not getting any sound from the speaker. Nothing appears to be in the headphone jack.  Any ideas anyone?

    My iPhone 4S  has no sound through the speaker generally, although the speakerphone does work.  It is indicating that headphones are in, when they are not.  Nothing appears to be in the headphone jack.  Resetting the phone has not resolved the problem.  any ideas what could be wrong?

    This just happened to my brand new iPhone5. I tried turning all the way off and then on AND plugging and unplugging. Only to discover that simply connecting to the charger worked!!!
    Very frustrating though!!
