Satellite A300 - microphone is not working

Hello!!
i install windows 7 - 64bit to my Satellite A300 and the microphone doesn't work, but the webcam works.
I downloaded and install the webcam drivers from the toshiba's site but the mic still doesn't work.
Do you have any ideas??
Thanks!

Hi
You should go to control panel -> sound > recording tab
Here you should check if the internal mic is chosen as default device.
If its not visible click right and ensure that options like: show hidden and disabled devices are marked.
Furthermore I recommend you to record an short video using the Toshiba webcam tool.
Check if the internal mic would work using such software

  • Satellite A300 - keyboard does not work sometimes

    Hi,
    the boot my Toshiba Satellite A300 Notebook the keyboard does not work sometimes?
    After a reboot everything is ok!
    Does anyone know why the keyboard does not work sometimes?
    greetings

    Hello
    Do you notice the same behavior with external keyboard? So you can check if the problem is related to internal keyboard/mainboard or something else.
    But its not easy to say something about these sometimes issues But if the keyboard would be really defective I dont see a big problem. Exchange is not so complicated and keyboards are not expensive. ;)

  • Satellite A300-1J1 - Sound not working with Windows XP

    I have a problem, Yesterday I've installed WindowXP on my Toshiba Satellite A300 1J1, but no sound!
    I tried all Toshiba driver sound given on Toshiba web site but no result !
    Some can help us?

    Hello
    Your notebook has a Realtek sound chip. So you must install a Hotfix from Microsoft before you can install the drivers.

  • Satellite A300-1G2 does not work with 3GB or 4GB of memory

    Does not work with 3GB or 4 GB memory, only 2 GB!
    And if I plug one memory module of 2 GB in bank1 (bank0 is empty) - it's does not work too!
    It's happened with 3 notebooks. (Sorry, my English is not good :) )

    Did you think about one fact that the notebook doesnt support 3GB or 4GB RAM?
    No?
    Maybe you should check the user manual firstly which is preinstalled on the notebook.
    I think you would find very important info.
    Notebooks with Intel Mobile GL960 chipset supports max memory capacity of 2GB!!!
    As Im not mistaken your notebook was equipped with the Intel Mobile GL960 chipset so the case must be clear now. or not?
    Additionally is important to know that you have to use always first memory bank/slot (bank0) if you are using ONLY one memory module!!
    Bye
    I think you can assign 10 points ;)

  • Re: Satellite Pro L500-1PU - internal microphone does not work

    I have an L500 -1PU Toshiba, running on 32 bit Windows 7,
    The webcam is working wonderfully but the internal microphone is not working properly.
    I had an external microphone so i hadn't noticed this problem when i got on skype, but i've recently discovered that when using the webcam the person on the other end can hear faint noises from my computer when i'm playing music or watching a video clip.
    How can i solve this and get my microphone working properly such that i can control the volume and actually get full service from my otherwise decent notebook?
    Thanks

    Hi
    Possibly this Toshiba FAQ could help you:
    +Whistling sound on the Satellite L500+
    http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB0402UB0001R01.htm
    Its a matter of the settings.
    This issue occurs if the microphone volume in the speakers properties is enabled.
    After disabling this point the issue with acoustic feedback does not appear anymore.
    Hope this helps!

However after the upgrade I noticed that the microphone is not working while the speaker are working fine. I have went to the sound right click and choosed recording device and found tha the realtalk is my driver and everything is fine there. when I change to stereo mix I got very bad noise.

    I also have another question my understanding is the model Satellite L505D-S5965 has no internal microphone is this is the case? I can plug in external mic into the jack provided for this but there is no built in microphone am I correct please advise?

  • Satellite L300-215 - Webcam not working

    The webcam on my Satellite L300-215 has not worked since I downloaded the new Toshiba software months ago.
    The Chicony webcam is not even recognised and it will not install the Toshiba software.
    Two hours with Toshiba technical staff, including them having remote access to my computer, did not solve the problem.
    It seems this is a very common problem and I have tried some of the suggestions on postings but with no result.
    Does anybody out there have the answer?

    I have two Toshiba notebooks, Satellite P200D and Satellite A300, both with webcam and everything works well. So I don't agree with statement about very common problem.
    Does webcam works well if your notebook is preinstalled with Toshiba recovery image (factory settings)?
    >I have tried some of the suggestions on postings but with no result.
    What you have tried to solve this?

  • [XP64] Microphone does not work in WinXP 64

    Hi,In Windows XP 64bit my microphone does not work, tried it in Ventrilo 2., Skype and even in the Windows Recorder. The computer don't detect any sound. Offcourse?I have selected the microphone in the recordering section in the Windows volume panel and the volume at maxium. Also in the volume panel under playback the microphone is not mute, set to max volume. I have also installed WinXP 32bits and here it works OK with exactly the same settings. Thats why I think it is because of my Soundcard driver, I have installed the latest driver from this site. I have a SoundBlaster X-Fi Fatality. Is there anyone with a X-Fi soundcard with the same problem or anyone where the microphone works in WinXP 64bit's Or is it a known problem?Please help me

    Hi Theicewarrior,?Creative support has been aware of this issue for quite some time (6+ months, maybe even a year). The 4GB+?RAM driver/addressing issues are not a priority or they would have been addressed quite some time ago.
    Presumably this is due to functional Vista drivers for the masses being a higher priority than the relati'vely few of us with 4GB+ RAM and an X-Fi.
    While the X-Fi?is a great card, my only wish was that the vendor was forthright about this product not functioning with certain configurations. It is my feeling that?making an effort to help?customers choose?products that will work with their configurations would result in satisfied and repeat customers?and a better bottom line?as opposed to?eeking a few extra dollars out of a slightly larger customer base and?who are then left unsatisfied with a product and unwilling to buy a company's products in the future.Message Edited by Foddan on 07-9-20070:45 AM

  • Microphone does not work in Facetime

    Hi
    I read other posts and in Maverik I didn't find simmilar problem, for most people their microphone does not work after few minutes, but in my case, microphone does not work at all in Facetime, so I can hear the other end, but they can not hear me! This happened after updating Mavericks.
    My Mac specs:
    Macbook Pro 2013
    OSx 10.9.1 (Mavericks)
    things I already tested:
    I tried to use headphone and without headphone, but it didn't make any difference
    Microphone works fine in Skype and other softwares (Audacity, YahooMessenger, etc.)
    Tried with WiFi and with Ethernet cable
    Internet speed is 2.3MBps
    Router's firewall does not have any restriction for certain ports
    Tried turning facetime Off and On
    Tried to call iPhone 5s, iPad2 and MacBook Pro each in different network and different countries!
    ... and finally searching internet for hours (which obviously came up with nothing)
    I'll be thankful if somebody help me through, all suggestions are welcome, so please don't hesitate to post.

    Same issue here....
    8-core Mac Pro, Lion, Original External iSight camera connected via FireWire 400 through the FireWire jack on the 23" Apple Cinema Display.
    Audio and video work fine using iChat and making video clips through any/all apps.
    However, using FaceTime.....incoming audio and video are fine, outgoing video is fine, but outgoing audio is missing.  Nobady can hear me.
    Sorry guys...you can't doll this one up or spin it in any other direction......it's a bug pure and simple.
    Feel free to fix it whilst you're dealing with all the other problems that Lion has.
    ....sT

  • My microphone does not work on calls on my iPhone 4

    Don't ask me what has happened and I have been through all of the troubleshooting that I can on my own. 
    I have no clue how to get a hold of a LIVE AT&T person or APPLE person.
    The problem is my microphone does not work when I use the telephone, whether I make the call or someone calls me.  It is NOT the MUTE button.  And yes, I have already rebooted my iPhone about 5 times now.  Has not fixed it either.
    But the microphone DOES work as I was able to record a new voicemail greeting to let people know my phone isn't working.
    So, they could call me all day long but they won't hear me, so who do I call using my landline (thankfully I kept it).
    It is the day after Thanksgiving and I would be a fool to head over to the Apple Store or the AT&T Store....
    Thank-you,
    Marcia

    Try disconnecting the headphones and then adjusting the volume, does it say headphones?
    There might be something in the headphone jack, maybe lint, dirt, or something else in there.
    Take a look at this Apple document for more information -> iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers

    I have 4s iPhone , I download the iOS 7. Now the front receiver microphone is not working , please help me that how to fix the problem.

    I live in South Africa, and I had the same problem with my iPhone 4.
    After weeks of frustration and swearing, I was in the process of restoring my phone to a previous iOS. To do that you need to turn the "Find my iPhone" option off, since i turned it off, my problem was solved. No need to repair anything or revert back to old iOS.
    ***** that i cant use Find my iPhone, but atleast i can use my phone.

  • Microphone does not work after restarting computer

    I just received the Creative Xmod soundcard yesterday after using an Icemat siberia usb headset sound card for a couple months. The sound is a lot better with the creative soundcard however, if I restart my computer and go back into ventrilo, my microphone does not work. It doesnt make any sound when I talk into it (almost as if it muted itself) but it hasnt. I check my sound settings and everything is the way it should be.....but the mic isnt producing any sound. It is not my headphones that is causing the problem because I have never had this problem with my old icemat soundcard. I am currently using :
    Sennheiser PC350 headset
    Windows XP Home Edition
    The newest version of Ventrilo

    http://picsend.net/images/240403ventsetup.JPG
    That is how I have ventrilo setup. A friend of mine said I should Mux set to Record Control, but it only gives me the option for Wave In =/

  • I got my Macbook Pro 17inch (early 2011) back from Apple (they had to replace the logic board) and now my microphone is not working

    I got my Macbook Pro 17inch (early 2011) back from Apple (they had to replace the logic board) 3 days ago, I had a terrible experience as the genious who gave me my solid state disk for safekeeping lost my disk's brackets thus I had to wait 2 more hours until they find one after 10 days of waiting for the repair. I noticed some weird sounds, like somehting is moving with the mac 1-2 times, even if I have no mechanical parts other than the fans, but my real issue at the moment is that my microphone is not working. I can see the mic in the System Info however and in Audio Midi Setup. In the Audio Midi Setup I see that the master chanel is turned off and I can't turn in on. Ch 1 and 2 are on full. I also noticed the first seconds after the comp. boots the blue bar goes to the middle in the System Preferences -> Sound -> Input. Any ideas what to do or try? I do not want to go back to the apple store as it is 50 minutes away from here and I need my laptop as a computer science student. Everything else is working perfectly.

    You need to call both the store that did the repair and Apple directly, warranty service or Apple care, and report this problem with both of them and get a ticket number of some kind (some kind of verification number) that the unit just came back from major service with this problem and that you want it fixed when you can lose the use of it, which is not right now.
    Without doing something like that they could easily say it is damage not covered under the normal warranty.
    God knows what the repair center did and did not do to it while it was there.
    And depending on when you actually bought it the warranty could run out in the mean time.
