Sound Check doesn't work

I just switched from Mini to Nano and now when I playback songs the volume is all over the board. One song is on 5 one is on 10 and back and forth... I have tried several times to check and re-check the Sound Check feature. Am I doing someting wrong? If the song volume was close to each other it would be fine but it is WAY OFF. Thanks for the help.

You need to check that option at iTunes as well. Did you remember to do that?
If it doesn't work, try send Apple feedback about your iPod. Be polite and clear and if this is a general problem they will correct it on the next software updater.
Hope this helps

Sound Check doesn't work for some podcasts?

Apologies for cross-posting, but this didn't get any replies in the Using iTunes section.
Podcasts that I subscribe to are recorded at quite different levels. This is pretty annoying when my morning playlist goes from a really quiet one to a really loud one.
It seemed that Sound Check would be the perfect solution, but not so: while Sound Check has set Volume levels for all the music tracks I checked, and many podcasts, there are quite a few podcasts that Get Info / Summary reports the Volume as "Not available." This doesn't seem to be just a display glitch: when I turn Sound Check on and off, the volume doesn't change on these tracks. As Murphy would predict, the ones that need the most adjustment don't get any
I haven't been able to work out what is different between the tracks that do and don't have Sound Check volumes. Two example podcasts that do get Sound Check volumes are Slacker Astronomy (most recent episodes) and StarDate; two that don't are Classical Music Spotlight and Writer's Almanac.
I tried converting one episode to AAC. As expected, the AAC file gets a Sound Check volume. But it's in the iTunes library Music group, not in the podcast.
Is there any way to get Sound Check to process these other podcast episodes?

Sound check is basically useless. Hasn't worked effectively on any model I've purchased. However, as others have pointed out, you can adjust the volume of a song so that your playlists don't cause public embarrassment. Simply do a control "i" on a particular song. In the "info" tab, you can increase or decrease the volume of a particular tune. However, if you make the adjustment, be sure to adjust all of the tune from that album. Otherwise, when you play the album, the song you tweaked will have a different volume from the rest of tunes on the album. It ain't a great fix... but it's better than what the programmers have done with sound check.

Sound check doesn't work with shuffle

I can't get the sound check to work on my shuffle. I enabled it in iTunes, and it works fine for my music when playing with iTunes, but when I place the music on my shuffle it doesn't work, even though I have soundcheck enabled in the ipod settings.
I even 'restored' the shuffle and reloaded all my songs, and the sound check still didn't work. Help!

6th Gen Nano - Sound Check doesn't work

Hi
The sound level on my 6th Gen Nano is all over the place. There is a big variance in volume from one song to the next which is both annoying and dangerous to my hearing. The Sound Check function is turned on in both the Nano settings and iTunes.
Does anyone know a fix to this before my ear-drums blow out?

IChat 'spell checker' doesn't work.

Hello,
Recently upgraded to Tiger .. and the spell checker doesn't work when selected as 'Check spelling as you type'. It works manual -when I click on 'Check Spelling' ... but not whle I type.
The spell checker works fine in Mail and Pages,etc. Just not iChat.
I did reinstall iChat and didn't solve problem.
Any thoughts?

Just to add more info - when selected as 'Check spelling as you type' ... when I type a misspelled word, it will underline the word in red. BUT - when I right-click the word - NO word suggestions are in the popup menu.
If I click 'Check Spelling' ... and then right-click the word ... it works perfectly ... with word suggestions in the popup menu AND other options (ignore spelling, learn spelling ... etc)
Thanks.

After downloading Firefox, my e-mail spell check doesn't work

for years I had used IE. I recently installed Firefox and now my e-mail spell check doesn't work. The dictionary is loaded but cannot figure out how to resolve this. It still works when using IE, so am assuming it's a Firefox glitch.

Do you have a dictionary installed and selected?
* You can see which dictionary is selected if you right-click in a text area and open the Languages submenu.
* Open the "Add Dictionaries" link to install a dictionary if you do not have one.
* Make sure that [X] "Check Spelling" in the right-click context menu is check-marked.
You can enable or disable spell checking globally:
* Tools > Options > Advanced : General: Browsing: "Check my spelling as I type"
You can look here for dictionaries:

Continuous inventory based on zero stock check doesn't work

Hello!
The contiunous inventory based on zero stock check doesn't work.
The problem is that I ticked both signs in the customizing for zero
stock check and it doesn't work. The box for zero stock check
appears, but if you check afterwards the inventory with LX25 nothing
is done.
Could the problem be that I my inventory method is PZ - continuous
inventory?
Help urgently needed!
Thanks

Now I can see the problem - fault of a beginner!
I have not created any inventory document including this storage bins.
Now my question is, how to create this?
I have tried to create one for the continuous inventory stock, but I'm not able
to book any goods movement on it because it is locked.
Please help me how to create the inventory document, so that
the continuous inventory based on zero stock check works.
Kind regards,
Barbara

HP updated my BIOS and now the sound system doesn't work on Dv76012Tx.

HP Care / Support Assistant requested to update my BIOS, which I did. Computer restarted a couple of times then I found my sound system doesn't work. My computer is Dv7-6012Tx and it is just a week old. I now get no sound, and it had been working beautifully.
Please reset my BIOS back to how it was.

Had the same problem as of about 30 minutes ago. New BIOS update, sound doesn't work. Drivers all read as up-to-date. What the hell?

Sound Check doesn't seem to work for ipods?

I'm having trouble with the volume of songs on my various ipods (ipod version 2, newest touch, and my iphone 5c). While the sound check works in itunes, I have to constantly adjust the volume for the songs on my ipods. Is there a way to get around this or to fix it without having to spend a ton of money? I would just like it so that I don't have to keep adjusting for every song.

Hi,
You can try to enable the setting via '''Tools''' ('''Alt''' + '''T''') > '''Options''' > '''Advanced''' > '''General''' > '''Check my spelling as I type'''. You can also set the preference for individual sites by enabling/disabling '''Check Spelling''' option on the right-click menu of a typing text box like this. If additional dictionaries are installed, you may also have to choose the correct dictionary from the right-click menu > '''Languages'''.

XP Sound driver doesn't work on a Satellite A100-02B

Hello,
I've installed Windows XP on my Satellite A100-02B.

Can you help me?
Thanks,

Man, thats great that you found your solution. So I had suggested to check www.realtek.com for some working drivers. ;-)

HP Probook 4520s: sound card doesn't work (no sound, red mute button)

Нello!
I have an issue with my HP Probook 4520s. Its internal speakers and microphone doesn't work. I've tried to install and reinstall drivers from here, tried to rollback driver to older version but I always have the same result: installed the IDT sound codec, and after a restart, the mute button turned red and I cannot switch it.
Soundcard device ID: HDAUDIO\FUNK_01&VEN_111&DEV_7605
OS: Windows 7 Professional x86
How can I fix it?

Hi, just registered to post my solution. I got HP ProBook 4330s in for repair. Problem: some sticky liquid spilled all over and no sound. Also discovered that no microphone as well, but webcam did work just fine.
What I tried:
1) Installed fresh Win 7 Ultimate 32-bit and all official drivers (audio driver did not want to install), still no sound. Sound icon shows red cross. Message: No audio output device installed.
1) Installed the newest version of BIOS, in my case F.40, still no sound.
2) Pluged in headphones, still no sound.
3) Took apart, unpluged and firmly inserted every possbile cable, still no sound.
4) Found in BIOS everything that relates to Audio. Made sure Audio device is enable, still no sound.
5) Install XP and installed XP sound driver, still no sound. In fact, that driver did not install correctly, showed some kind of error.
What did work, in consecutive order:
1) Took apart again and took out the coin battery that retains the BIOS data, date, clock etc.
2) Put everything back together, switched on, entered the correct date in BIOS settings, and started Win 7 Ultimate. Still no sound. But I noticed that Win 7 Ultimate has found some devices and was installing drivers for it. Though did not check exactly which ones.
3) If I could not get the sound working I was determined to buy some speakers with USB connection. Then, I remembered that I already had a set of speakers for another laptop. These speakers had USB connection to draw power from and a grean standard headphone connection/plug to draw audio signal. I plugged in these speakers into HP 4330s and the sound started coming from these external speakers. The sound icon next to the clock in bottom right corner switched to normal mode and I could control volume with my mouse. Then I unpluged external USB speakers and the sound started coming from the HP's built in speakers.
Checked with Device Manager that correct sound drivers are installed and microhpone appeared to be installed as well. Though did not check with Skype if microhpone was working.
I was soooo happy!!! I struggled with this problem for three long days, searched many forums (none gave solution), tried everything with drivers, took apart the laptop some three or four times (now I learned to do it with my eyes closed, so to speak).
I started to think that taking out the BIOS/date coin battery did the trick. There must be some glitch in BIOS to motherboard connection in these HP ProBook laptops, and all BIOS settings need to be reset.
I'll be happy if this helps someone.

How to hide a field based on the value of a field in a different subform - null check doesn't work!

I'm using Javascript to set the actions. I need to hide a text field if the value of a field in another sub-form is null.
- tried checking the value of the other field for null - doesn't work
- tried setting a variable str2 where I know the value of the other field is available then checking that variable when I initialize the text field - doesn't work
What am I missing?

Hi.
Try this in the originating sub form referring to the text field (X).
if (this.rawValue = 1)
X.presence = "visible";
else if (this.rawValue = null)
X.presence = "hidden";

Changing sound preferences doesn't work until I restart?

So the new mail sound for a particular mail account, I want to change. I change it to "off" (no sound) and when I get an email it still makes the sound it used to. If I restart the phone then it works correctly and I won't hear a sound when I get a new email. Is this how it should work? Changing a setting in preferences doesn't work till you restart the phone?

Well, the 'chirping' certainly isn't a hard drive! I don't know what it could be... the only thing that I can suggest is that you take your computer to your local Apple Store and have them diagnose the problem. The diagnosis should be free as will an estimate for repair (if you're out of warranty).
Something's obviously not right but as the only moving parts in the retina models are the fans, you may have a problems with the fans. As to the problems with the keyboard, let the Apple techs figure that one out.
Good luck,
Clinton

Sound check does not work with dock connector

I have the 60GB video iPod. Sound check does not function when using the dock connector, i.e. plugged into my Belkin Autokit or a Kensington SoundDock. However, it functions as intended when used with the headphone jack. I previously used a 4G iPod, and sound check did function with the dock connector using those same products.
I am wondering if this could be:
a) a compatibility issue between the 5G connector and the older accessories
b) a firmware issue (I am using the 10-12-05 updater)
c) a bug in the 5G units
d) a bad unit (i.e. mine only)
If there is someone out there who has the same setup and could test this, it would help me. I could eliminate (a), (b), and (c) if yours works, and then I would try an exchange of my unit.
Thanks in advance if you can help.

I have a similar problem. I've never really used sound check but I recenty installed a Harman/Kardon Drive+Play iPod interface. The sound quality using the dock connection is not great. It sound somewhat distorted. It sounds much better through the headphone port. i always thought the dock connector would provide a cleaner signal. I will borrow a click wheel 4G iPod to see if the problem is with the interface or my video iPod.
