Satellite P30-145: Don't have an audio device in 'Sounds and Audio devices'

Hi guys,
I've only just fixed one problem with the help of one fantastic member but now I have another!
All of a sudden my speakers decide not to work!! I checked the volume etc and alll was fine but when I went in control panel>sounds and audio devices it says I don't have an audio device!!!
It worked fine this morning and I havn't done anything that could have done this.
These problems I'm having are all spontaneous, I don't know what's going on!
Does anyone know how I can fix this and does anyone suspect virus activity? (I have done a scan which said I don't have any)
I use a P30-145
Many thanks

Hi
Did you check the device manager?? Is the sound card listed properly in the device manager or some yellow exclamation marks appear?
Did you try to reinstall the sound driver? If not, please try it.
Of course I would also recommend to update the anti virus applications and to scan the system for virus and malware

  • Satellite P30-145: drive will not recognise dual layer DVDs

    I have a Satellite P30-145 with a DVD SupermultiDL drive. When I first got the PC I could write dual layer DVDs without any problems. Now the drive will not recognise dual layer DVDs at all. Even ones from the same box that worked fine previously. I'm using Verbatim Double Layer DVD+R 2.4x discs.
    After much searching on the internet I downloaded and ran DVDInfoPro. This application reported that the drive did not support DVD+RW DL. Very strange!!
    Can anyone help? The drive is a Mat****a DVD-RAM UJ-831S.

    Hi Lan
    This drive is definitely DL one but I can just imagine that drive is defective and can not calibrate lens in the right position. This notebook model is more that two years old and if you have used this drive intensively I can really imagine that DL function is defective.
    What you can do is to clean the lens and see it this will help.

  • No sound and audio on Satellite A10-S177

    My laptop is a Satellite A10-S177 XP, I happened to delete some programmes from my laptop in order to create space but it so happened that it affected my audio and sound and currently they the sound and audio bit in the control panel say no sound/audio driver. Tried to down load some software from the net but it did not work for it required printer access which I dont have.
    I also dont have my XP installation CD, so am all lost and could do with any help from computer geniuses out there.
    Thank you

    Hi there,
    First of all would you tell me where did you downloaded some software where you thought it would bring back your sound?
    Since your machine is from america you would have to go to the american driver download site:
    http://www.csd.toshiba.com/cgi-bin/tais/su/su_sc_home.jsp
    Please visit the link Ive posted and download the sound driver. Install it and check if the sound works.
    In case of any question just feel free and ask...
    Greetings

    Hello All...
    Back after a brief absence, things look a little bit different.
    I'm trying to take a 16 minute mini dv video and compress it for use on the web. I'm interested in any suggestions you may have on settings for the video and audio tracks. I've tried using Sorenson 3 (15 frames, key frames set to automatic, 320 x 240) for video and IMA 4:1 (mono) for audio. The resulting video looked great but the file size came in at about 255 Mb.
    Thanks!

    Thank you for the replies.  Everyone was correct about the jack, interface, and phasing problems.  I have been unplugging my motu audio interface and then using headphones at work.  I have not changed any detailed audio output settings in logic.  When I read that the jack might be a problem I tried switching headphones.  This actually helped.  I am using dre-beats headphones and they seem to be having issues with the mac/jack-(the phasing/panning problems.  I can use these headphones with other devices but not the mac.  I have to use ipod ear buds and the phasing seems fixed.  Hopefully this information is helpful to someone else. 
    If anyone knows how to correct this issue please let me know its difficult to know what my final mixes are going to sound like and I have had to keep bouncing everything into i-tunes- sync to ipod and then listen in my car radio. 

  • How can i get a pdf from my iPhone to my new macbook? I keep trying to sync but it says it will delete all the books/pdfs on my phone. I don't have this pdf on my computer and don't want to lose it. Help please!

    Hello ashlyn888,
    Based on your post it sounds like you would like to sync your iBooks content with your computer. I have located an article that may help you in this situation. While you can sync this data with your computer you can also use the sharing button to send PDFs using various sources:

  • HT4946 Can I back up my iPhone 4S to my ipad 3 (64 gb)? I do not have a computer. I deleted pictures from my iPhone and added then to the ipad, but now I don't have enough space in iCloud to backup either device. Why not?

    Can I back up my iPhone 4S to my ipad 3 (64 gb)? I do not have a computer running Mountain Lion. Our desktop still runs Tiger, so I purchased the 3rd generation iPad with 64 gb thinking it had had plenty of room to backup my iPhone photos. I used a camera connection kit and transferred about 1100 old photos from my camera roll on my iPhone to my ipad.  I then deleted pictures from my iPhone and now my camera roll has only 357 photos. However, in the Settings, under "About" it says I have 2147 photos. Why? I only have a total of 216 photos in all my albums. However, now I don't have enough space in iCloud to backup either device. Why not?  Any help, any advice, appreciated please! I spent a long time on the phone with Apple today and they couldn't solve the problem.

    iCloud only give so much space for free storage, then if you exceed the limit of 5gb you have to pay for additional storage.

  • Hi. As to me to deactivate 5 computers on which my account in iTunes has been activated. If I at present don't have access to these computers. And on them I didn't do deactivation. On it I can't activate now the computer!

    If you log into your iTunes account you should be able to de-authorise all (which you can only do once every 12 months) - you can then re-authorise the computers that you still have/need : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420

  • I bought an iphone after restoring but i can't activate it because i don't have the previous owner iCloud account and i don't know where and how to contact him what should i do to have my phone activating

    i bought and iphone but i can't activate it because i don't have the previous owner icloud account and don't know either how and where to contact him so what sould i do

    Find a way to contact whoever you bought it from. If you can't do that, turn it over to the police. The phone is probably stolen. There is NO WAY past the activation lock without the credentials for the Apple ID that was used to lock it.

  • How can I set up a preferred printer so I don't have to pick the printer each and every time I print something out?  At the moment, even immediately after printing one thing, it prompts me to pick a printer, which is very time consuming.

    No, there is not setting for a default printer.The system scans for available airprint printers each time you print.

  • HT201328 I got this MSG that this sim is not supported then I can't do anything. I don't have any icons on my phone and I can't restore thru iTunes.  Anyone has similar experience? What do u do? AT&T told me my phone is unlocked but I can't do anything ne

    When i got on itunes after i was told my  iphone4 is unlocked.  I got this MSG that this sim is not supported then I can't do anything. I don't have any icons on my phone and I can't restore thru iTunes.  Anyone has similar experience? What do u do? AT&T told me my phone is unlocked but I can't do anything need help. My sim is with TMobile.

    You'll need to  either a) insert your AT&T SIM card and then restore the phone, or b) force your iPhone into recovery mode.  If you re-insert the AT&T SIM card, make sure you swap it with your new T-Mobile one before you start the setup assistant.  If you force the phone into recovery mode then just leave the T-Mobile SIM card in it.
    You must restore your iPhone to complete the setup assistant so that your phone can be activated with T-Mobile.

    Hi there,
    You're running an old version of Safari. Before troubleshooting, try updating it to the latest version: 6.0. You can do this by clicking the Apple logo in the top left, then clicking Software update.
    You can also update to the latest version of OS X, 10.8 Mountain Lion, from the Mac App Store for $19.99, which will automatically install Safari 6 as well, but this isn't essential, only reccomended.
    Thanks, let me know if the update helps,
    Nathan

  • HT4847 I don't have Lion of working IOS 5 and want to downgrade my storage how do I do it

    I don't have Lion of working IOS 5 and want to downgrade my storage how do I do it?

    You can only do this on a Lion/Mountain Lion Mac or an iOS5.6 device. If you don't have these how did you manage to add storage in the first place? If you are a MobileMe migratee you would have been given an additional 20GB as a concession but this expires on 30 September and will simply be removed if you don't pay to upgrade it, so you need do nothing if this is the additional storage you are concerned about.
    If you did somehow manage to purchase extra storage and now wish to downgrade it you will need to contact Support.
    You can cancel an iCloud storage upgrade within 15 days of buying:
    Apple have made this as difficult as possible. However two posters have managed to achieve this. Elizellen was able to use Express Lane to get a refund:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/19323996#19323996
    However if you use Express Lane may find you cannot proceed without entering a hardware serial number which is still eligible for AppleCare.  julia22 managed to find a way round that by phoning them - please see this post:
    https://discussions.apple.com/message/16968425#16968425
    it gives the USA number - if you don't live there you will have to find an equivalent number from the 'Contact Us' link at bottom right of this page.
    If it is more than 15 days since you purchased the storage you cannot cancel it for a refund; you can downgrade your plan as from your next renewal date. Please see
    http://help.apple.com/icloud/#mmd602084a
    and expand 'Downgrade your storage for the next plan year'. If you are unable to access the required setting you will again have to contact Support.
