  • My sound is coming from my built in speakers instead of through the headphone jack.

    I have an Envy 15 1270ca and last night it froze while I was listening to music, forcing me to manually shut it off by holding down the power button. When the computer came back on, my sound was coming out of my built-in speakers instead of my external speakers through the headphone jack. I checked the speakers through my mp3 player, so I know that they are working, so it seems to be the jack which is not working.
    Any help is appreciated!

    Please Reinstall the sound Drivers and Make sure that the no ear phones are plugged in when we reinstall the sound drivers, this should work even after doing this if its not working then please set the BIOS to defaults this should work

  • Sound not coming from imac

    I am facing a very strange problem with my Imac. When i am pressing the volume keys on keyboard it is showing muted sign on the screen. No sound is coming from the speakers. Sometimes the muted sign automatically goes and also suddenly display on the screen. But when i am connecting a external headphone sound is coming. So is this a speaker problem or keyboard or any other hardware problem. What is the solution ?

    Your audio settings may have been changed.
    Open Audio MIDI Setup (/Applications/Utilities/), then check the Audio Output setting.
    Change the Audio Output setting to 44100.0 Hz.
    Quit Audio MIDI Setup.

  • IDT driver update = No sound from the built-in speakers

    I just recently bought an HP - dv6 WF536AV Laptop.
    The sounds were proper from the built-in Altec Lansing speakers , till i updated the audio drivers via HP Support Utility.
    Now i do not get any playback from the speakers mentioned above, but while plugging in my iPod headphones, there is audio in the headphones.
    I've tried to reinstall the IDT Audio driver from the HP Support utility as well as one downloaded from the website :
    IDT High-Definition Audio Driver  6.10.6289.0
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-86241-1&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us&...
     Yet, nothing is resolved.  
    Of what i understood from various articles on the web, was that the new driver sets the headphone jack as the primary device for audio output and hence it does not reach the speakers.
    Also , I'm pretty sure of this not being a hardware conflict since the laptop is recently purchased and i've rarely used the headphone jack.
    Following are the details about my system :

    Hi,
    From the Start Menu, open the Control Panel and then open Device Manager.  Click the small arrow next to Sound Video and Game Controllers, right click on the IDT High Definition Audio Codec and select Properties.  Click the Driver tab then click on 'Roll back Driver'.  Click yes or Ok to any further prompts and let the process complete.  Reboot the PC and see if your sound is back.  If it is not repeat this process again.
    Hope this helps.
    Best wishes,

  • Sound is coming from the ear-piece and its really really low

    Title pretty much says it.
    My iPhone is acting really weird ever since this morning, sound isnt coming from the bottom speakers anymore but instead from the ear-piece and its really low.
    I tried resetting the phone with holding down the home and sleep button at the same time but its still the same.
    Anyone else having this problem?

    Connect the headset to a computer or stereo or anything else with 3,5mm minijcack to see if the headset is ok of they work there then your headset is defect if not your phone is the problem

  • Ipod doesn't produce stereo sound from iphone built-in speakers?

    I've had my iphone for some time now, but just noticed that when playing music from the ipod built-in to the iphone, the music is only coming from one speaker (the one on the bottom left).
    Is that normal? I would assume both speakers would be used?
    I checked the settings and couldn't find a setting for "stereo sound" and did a forum search and couldn't find an answer.

    fair enough i didn't think i had posted it in the right forum, so i posted it in the ipod/audio one as well....
    anyway, thanks for the answer.

  • Audio problem; can't seem to control where the sound is coming from!

    Good day!
    I am currently trying to set up a VERY basic "two camera shoot" using my built in iSight, and a Sony DCR-TRV315 Digital-8 w/FireWire camcorder.
    (I know, I know; I'm breaking all sorts of rules using such unmatched cameras. I'm a terrible videographer.)
    I'm NOT capturing from tape, however. I'm just using the lens of it to get a different shot. By just plugging it in, iMovie recognizes it, just as it would a FireWire webcam, and allows me to capture straight to the hard drive.
    To record audio, I'm using a Griffin iMic (USB preamp) with a Sony lavaliere mic.
    I have, of course, selected the iMic as the device for sound input in Sound Preferences.
    When I set the input camera to the built in iSight, the iMic kicks in and the lavaliere works like a dream. However; when I switch to the Sony camera, the iMic seems to get overridden, and the Sony camera's built-in mic kicks in! And the Sony camera isn't even IN the "choose a device for sound input" box in Sound Preferences!
    Is there any way to record JUST the video from the Sony DCR-TRV315, and keep the audio coming in from the iMic? I can't seem to find an audio preference that would control this, like you'd find in Garageband for example. This is a big problem. The look of the video changes enough between shots; I can't have the sound changing with it!
    Thanks for any help!

    Thanks everyone.
    Unfortunately, I think that M. Dubose is correct; for some reason, it doesn't want to seem to split up the FireWire input.
    The real kicker is that, by using the Griffin iMic along with the built-in iSight, I'm ALREADY getting sound and video from two separate sources. It just doesn't want to let me split this FireWire signal like it will the iSight's video signal/built in microphone.
    If it wasn't for this one thing, the input toggle could work quite effectively as a basic switcher. Hopefully, in future iMovie builds, the need for an independent iMovie Sound Prefs will be addressed, as that'd likely take care for this whole thing.
    The other issue is that the camera I'm using isn't true DV; it's Sony's proprietary Digital 8 format, which unfortunately, ain't too hot for image quality. That's why I'm hesitant to record to the tape and import. However, the lens and the FireWire port are still very valid, so by recording directly to the hard drive, it should have been fine for my needs.
    Also; the idea of THAT much precise editing in a single-channel software just makes my head spin. Switching inputs between shots would have been so much easier. Ah well. iMovie is a good program otherwise; I guess you just can't expect the world from free software, eh?
    I'll probably test it with a buddy's FireWire camcorder to make absolutely sure that it isn't just some freaky incompatibility keeping me from selecting the audio in of my choice. But I can't say that I'm too optimistic.
    Thanks again, everyone!

  • No sound is coming from the speakers.

    I have a Mac Mini.   All of a sudden my speakers, which have been working for over a year quit. I and bought another set - same issue. I can hear the sound coming from the hard drive.  I've looked at the sound settings but I'm not quite that technical.  Can somebody help?

    If only it were that easy, but thanks!

  • Sound not coming from blth speakers

    My 3g does not have stereo sound coming from both speakers. If I cover the left speaker when playing an i-tune, there is absolutely no sound coming from the right speaker. Also , my ringtone and speaker phone doesn't seem as lound as it should be, probably related to the above problem. When I use the earpieces the stereo sound is perfect. Does anyone know if this is the case with their phone? I'd like to know before I take it in. Thanks.

    The iPhone 3G only has one speaker, the right side is a microphone.

  • Creative I-Trigue L3800 Sound Only Coming From Subwoofer

    Hey all.
    Just wondering if anyone has any ideas as to why the sound is only coming through the subwoofer on a set of these speakers I have been using.
    Checked so far:
    Audio Cable connecting PC to Speaker system.
    Sound settings in Windows 7 (balance etc).
    Unplugged all speakers/control thingy etc and plugged back in.
    I am certain the problem is somewhere inside the subwoofer itself as I was watching something the night before they seemed to 'die'. I literally turned the PC back on this morning to watch something and the sound is now only coming from the subwoofer. I've taken the PCB out of the subwoofer to look for any obvious signs of damage but I'm not an electrician or a speaker expert. The only thing I can see is a slow-blow fuse which looks fine, and I'm guessing that if this were the culprit there would be no sound whatsoever.
    Any ideas? Obviously these are an old set of speakers but if there are any diagnostics I can do to perhaps find the cause and fix it, any help would be greatly appreciated as I currently have no decent device to play sound through.
    Thanks in advance.

    mattbell_5,
    Have you try using headphone on the laptop headphone jack and make sure that's working. If possible try plugging the speaker to another audio device like a MP3 player headphone jack and see whether the speaker is working properly.

  • Random sound/noise coming from bottom left of thunderbolt display?

    Hey everyone,
    I bought my Thunderbolt display in September 2012 and it worked well until a month ago. The screen started turning off, and USB and Ethernport ports would stop working from time to time. I took it into Apple and they gave me a new display after being unable to fix the problem.
    But now I have a new issue. There is a sound that comes from the display at random times. It sounds close to, but not exactly, like the sound a Mac makes when moving an item to the trash can. It appears to be comming from the bottom left side of the display.
    I've tried raising and lowering the volume, but that didn't have any effect (sounds the same no mater where the volume is). Even when the display volume is muted, or even sound output is sent to my USB DAC, the display still makes this noise. It can happen once every 30 seconds, or once every 30 minutes. There's no consistancy as to when it ocures.
    I tried connecting my Fiance's MacBook air to my display thinking it may be my Macbook Pro, but the noise still occured.
    I've tried connecting the display power to different outlets and different surge protectors, including a Sine Wave UPS, but neither helped.
    This has been an issue with 2 brand new displays Apple gave me. I'm still using the second display but getting ready to return it for a third. But before I do, I wanted to post a question to see if someone had any other idea on what it could be and to see if this is something I could fix myself.
    It appears to be hardware related, and from my testing it seems to be an issue with the current new Thunderbolt Displays.
    Anyone have any thoughts?

    I have a similar issue. Both output and input sounds are setup to come out of a USB speaker system I have attched to the display USB ports. However when emptying the trash, the sound Macs make when doing so comes out of the display speakers. No options for that sound are available. Very odd. There does not seem to be a relation between the volume control either and the volume of the display, the display is loud, even when my mac system voulme is low.

  • Red light coming from my audio output, speakers not working

    I read somewhere about wiggling a toothpick around in there, but that didn't work, any other ideas.
    This happened after I had a 1/4 to 1/8 converter plugged in there to use a little mini amp.
    I've lost the use of speakers.
    headphones work fine
    I think the optical input is still reading as if something is plugged in. Not sure if there's something in my system I need to switch, or if I need to take it in, have the jack opened up and replaced

    Just to rule out the obvious make sure your mute switch (F3) is not on. If your 'switch is stuck' you would see a red light coming from the headphone port.
    Double check your Sys Prefs - Sound settings ...if things still are not working you might try a SMC reset followed by a Pram reset that would restore your orig. settings.

  • Buzzing Coming From HP G60-519WM Speakers

    My stepdaughter brought her laptop to me because the was no sound coming from the speakers. After I updated the driver, there is a buzzing coming from the speakers and the headphones. Anyone know how to fix this?

    Often it is a grounding problem in the interconnection of all the peripherals. I would try something like this RadioShack isolation transformer. Hopefully you can find an equivalent in HK, probably much cheaper.
    http://www.radioshack.com/product/index.jsp?productId=2062214
    This problem occurs often with external powered speakers and an external display. Often, the external display wiring induces the sound problem, so it often goes away when the display is disconnected. Sometimes running the computer on battery only fixes the buzz.
