Plugged in headphones, the headphones work, but the laptop still blast the sounds

Hi everyone, I recently bought a Lenovo Twist, the 12.5 inch version with Windows 8. It works wonderfully but one problem I have with it is that sometimes (about 75% of the time), I plug in the headphone\, the headphones work fine, but in addition to having sound through the headphones, the laptop continue to blast the sound. The sound is at the same level if I leave in or remove the headphones. What is the problem?
On a separate, completely unrelated note, how do I search for a particular app in the Windows 8 store? They only seem to have categories, and no search feature. Thanks in advance for the help!

I was having a similar problem. I called tech support and was walked through this solution:
Go to Control Panel,
then Realtek HD Audio Manager,
then Device Advanced Settings,
then switch from Classic mode to Multi-stream mode.

BINGO !!!!
Thanks so much Woodsroad. I had the exact same problem with my Dell Windows 7 64 bit with AMD Radeon 6700 Video card.
All the video tests passed with flying colors.
The sniffer rename trick fixed the problem.
Thank goodness for the internet!

Alright, so my ipod touch stopped working, but I can still connect it to itunes, but my friend gave me his old nano. I was wondering how I could get my more updated songs from my ipod touch onto th nano. My laptop crashed whitch had all my new music, and im afraid if I sync my Ipod touch to the desktop with all my old songs, ill lose all my newer ones which I dont want to happen because I want them on my nano. Im sorry for the confusing topic im just so lost.

All you have to do is connect your new iPod to the computer that has the library for your old iPod.
When iTunes comes up, click on your new iPod under Devices.
At the top of the Summary Page click Music.
Click Synch Music.
Do the same thing for Photos, Apps, Movies and so on...
Now just synch the iPod.

My ipod will only charge on the docking station. says it has a full charge but when I take it off the docking station it says battery is low so I've plugged it into the usb and plugged it into my wall outlet but it is still not charging. Help?

The battery is possibly unable to take as much power as a normal battery. It may need a replacement battery.

Drag it to the trash icon in your dock. This is a disk image, and you need to "eject" it, to get rid of it.

TC 2 TB A1409 Wan internet connection no longer working but light is still green?

TC 2 TB A1409 Wan internet connection no longer working but light is still green?
My TC and modem have been up and running for at least the last 2 years without any issues.
It recently started acting up and I would have restart it as I had no internet access. All of a sudden My TC stopped connecting to internet regardless of restart. Utility shows i have no internet connection. I had all the correct green lights on my modem. I figured it might be the modem and connected directly to single ethernet port in modem to my mac book and it worked. When I reconnect modem to TC and restart Modem, TC still shows no internet connection in utility even though I'm getting green sync light on TC.
Help Please.
I'm out of warranty, I have not reset to default yet, Im not sure if I will loose my TC back up data.
please advice

The Gen4 has some nasty faults.. mostly unrepairable...
If the WAN is gone it becomes pretty well useless at least in its current role as router.
You might still be able to plug it in by ethernet to a LAN port in bridge.
Do try a full factory reset.. always worth a go.
No files will be lost on the hard disk.
The Factory Reset universal
Unplug your TC/AE. Hold in reset. and power the TC/AE back on.. all without releasing reset and keep holding in for about 10sec. The time is not important.. it is the front LED rapid flashing that indicates you are in factory mode.
Release reset.
If it doesn’t flash rapidly you have released reset at some point and try again.
Be Gentle! Feel the switch click on. It has a positive feel.. add no more pressure after that.
TC/AE will reboot after a couple of minutes with default factory settings and will wipe out previous configurations.
No files are deleted on the hard disk.. No reset of the TC deletes files.. to do that you use erase from the airport utility.
Check the ethernet LED is going on.. both on the modem and the TC WAN port.
Do you have any applecare on a computer? If so it might cover the TC.. the rules are complicated but if the TC was bought within 2years before or after the computer it is covered up to max of 3years. You can still get coverage therefore if the TC is over 1 year but less than 2 years by buying applecare now on a computer or an Apple TV which is not too expensive. You can sell off the Apple TV without even opening it.. but use the applecare on it to get your TC replaced.
Only the very first Gen4 will be up to 3years.
Did you have a lightning storm or something btw?? Sometimes the modem can survive and pass the parcel to the TC which seems rather fragile.
There is also a trick to test..
You must have v5 airport utility.. any older Macs, or windows computer you can load on 5.6 utility .. even dual boot/parallels mac.
Go to the WAN setup.. and set the ethernet port to 10mbit half duplex.
Sometimes a damaged port can still manage the slowest speed.. by magic.

My IPod mini appears to be working, but I do not get any sound. I have reset it, but that didn't help. Is it possible that when it was exposed to a lot of sweat it shorted the speaker card?

My Ipod mini will not produce sound. I have reset it, still no sound. The only thing that I think might be causing this (and I want to know if I am correct) I carried it in my hand while walking in extream heat. The perspiration may have gotten in the device.

Be sure to try another set of headphones, if you have one.
Since you already did a Reset, the next thing you can try is to go to the Settings screen on the iPod (from the main screen). There should be an option at the bottom that says something like Reset All Settings. Choose that option to reset iPod to default settings.
If that does not bring back the sound, the next thing to try is a Restore in iTunes. Select the iPod in the iTunes sidebar, under DEVICES. Over to the right, go to the Summary tab. The Restore button is there. This will erase the iPod, re-install its software, and set it to default settings. If the cause is a software or settings glitch, a Restore should fix it. Try putting a few songs on the iPod to check if there is improvement.
If that does not bring back the sound, it is probably a hardware problem. A fix would then require replacing whatever part is faulty inside the iPod. It could be the headphone jack or something on the logic board. Moisture getting inside could have caused the problem, but it could just be age; maybe the headphone jack is just worn out.

I accidentally put my itouch 4th generation in the washer, so i took my itouch apart and dried it but now the screen is black but my itouch still makes a sound when i plug it in. what should i do?

so i accidentally washed my itouch and i took it apart and dried it but now the screen is black, i restored it but it still doesn't work but it makes a sound when i plug it in like it normally would. please help me

Yu can try the suggestions here:
iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
Was the restore successful?
If so I conclude thay the washing damaged something and servie is required. Ormaybe you damaged something when you took it apart/put it back together.

My iPhone 5 is working but there is still water inside ?

So yesterday at around 2 pm I was cleaning my floors and set down my iPhone screen down to listen to music I hadn't realized that I had placed it on a puddle of pine sol . after a song I went to change it and I realized it was wet I wiped it off but there was water inside the phone so i showed it to my brother I ran to my room and tired to charge it I found out that only portions of the screen work. It worked but I knew I should put it in rice so I did.I turned it off and out it standing up ports down in rice I turned it on about half an hour later to show my mom. Then quickly turned it off and put it in rice again. When I got home from school I checked it and I can see there is still water in the phone but the whole screen works I haven't tested out the camera but the finger print scanner works. What should I do? Please include prices of repair or replacement I had the iPhone 5s 16 GB I would like the exact same one.

Apple does not repair them. They replace them. $269 for a 5, 5c or 5s replacement.

Ipad screen is locked. SLIDE function will not work but screen does still rotate.

ipad screen is locked. slide function will not work but screen does rotate...

Try this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

Cq50-142us windows 7 64 bit headphones work but no sound from built in Altec-Lansing speakers

I recently installed Windows 7 64 bit on my CQ50-142US after the hard disk died. I've installed all the drivers that apply, and in particular the Conexant driver for the built-in audio parts. The system has built-in Altec-Lansing speakers.
I get no sound from the built in speakers, but if I plug in stereo headphones to the front-panel headphone jack, they work and they produce stereo sound no problem.
I can't see any way to test the speakers. If the system has any built-in diagnostic capability, I can't find it.
A Google search suggests I'm not the only person with similar problems.
Suggestions?

You can isolate this issue to a hardware or software fault by running a live distro of Ubuntu linix. See step number 2 to install it to a USB memory stick.
If the device is not recognized by Ubuntu during its config operations that the probem is likely to be with the notebook's system board.
Is your notebook still within the standard one year warranty period?

My sound is not working headphones work but no sound

My sound on my I pad will work with headphones but not on the pad checked the mute button and its not on

Try a reset:
Hold the Sleep and Home button down until you see the Apple logo.

No speaker sound. Headphones work, but not speakers.

This problem is driving me crazy. I simply cannot get speaker sound. I've even used recovery discs to return to original factory condition. My computer is six months old, HP Pavilion dv6 3163cl.
Please help!!

Do you get sound from the speakers in any apps e.g. Music and Videos but not games/notifications ? If you do then have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

TS3074 Hi, I have followed this advice numerous times, but my laptop still comes up with the same message, "iTunes was not installed correctly. Please reinstall iTunes. Error 7 (Windows error 5)." Quicktime also does not work. I have Windows 7, 32 bit.

I have also reinstalled iTunes dozens (literally) of times. I simply cannot resolve this conflict. I've looked on many other websites, and there seems to be no solution!

update .netframework to latest version
then
Follow the instructions on this link, basically un-install everything, remove programs that says they are made by apple inc. (using add remove program)
http://www.reimageplus.com/fix-windows-127-error/ (Many thanks to reimageplus.com)
You will also need to check and verify that the following folders have been removed:
C:\Program Files\Bonjour
C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple
C:\Program Files\iTunes
C:\Program Files\iPod
C:\Program Files\QuickTime
C:\Windows\System32\QuickTime
C:\Windows\System32\QuickTimeVR
dont forget to remove icloud also
you dont need to delete your itune music library though
If any of these folders still exist, delete them along with their contents. (if you cant delete them, right click and go to properties and then security and change the control of the fold to you)
do this for files under program files and program file (x86) on your computer
once you have deleted everything, restart your computer. Then I repaired my registry using a registry repair program.
Important:- instead of installing itunes I installed quick time, which installs apple application support (this is the corrupt file which is causing all the issues)
i then installed itunes and it all worked fine,
should take no longer than half hour to fix
hope this helps
