Sound does not work from speakers

I have Windows 7 on a HP 500B MT product desktop computer. According to my computer, my sound works fine. I installed the Microsoft Fixit and it said nothing wrong. I can plug in earphones and I can hear system sounds but no other sounds. The other speakers will sometimes either have too much static where I have to turn the volume down and the sound works OR I have absolutely no static and no sound. This is an intermittent problem. The volume is on max, device manager shows RealTek with no exclamation points by it and the driver is up to date. Then there are other days the sound works. What else could be wrong? Why is this an intermittent problem? I never turn my computer off. I always have updates installing. Any ideas anybody?

Did you try uninstalling the drivers from device manager? It could just be a driver issue.

My sound does not work on my internal speakers

Sound works (songs) on Ipad 2 but sound on videos (example utube) sound does not work. Video plays with no issue.Mute us not checked in general settings. Reboot (off/on) has not helped. Deleted apps and reloaded them. Did not help. Any other suggestions thank you

If you lose sound for games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

My Pokerist app sound does not work, only with headphones....can anyone help me? Thank you

My Pokerist app sound does not work. It will only work if I have head phones on. All other sound works, songs, video etc. I deleted the app, then installed again still no sound. It is not the app because I also have a IPhone and the sound works on Pokerist. If anyone can help me I would appreciate it.
Thank you

In 5s, personal hot spot does not work from time to time. Not detected

In 5s, personal hot spot does not work from time to time. Iphone does not get detected on Wi-fi or bluetooth. Restarting or rebooting does not help.

Settings, general, reset and reset network settings. Clear out your network settings and set personal hotspot again.
also avoid special characters making a password. hashtags or open brackets for example doesn't work too good.

My iPhone's sound does not work except for the alarm and the volume bar is not there.

Hi, thank you in advance if you can help.
When my iphone 4 is not plugged in to headphones the sound does not work, and if I try to adjust the sound with the plus and minus buttons in the side it comes up like normal saying "Ringer" but then there is no bar underneath it. Sometimes the sound will work for a couple of minutes. However, there is definitely no problem with the speaker as the alarm always works perfectly fine.
I have tried restoring it, this did not help.

what you could even try is to write down a few contacts that you would need to get through a single day, restore it to factory, punch in those few odd contacts,
No. What he should be doing is syncing his contacts to an app on his computer or cloud service, then sync them back to the phone (without restoring the backup).
Never rely on the backup for contacts. The contact info stored there may be incomplete and is only meant to maintain the recent calls and favorites lists.

After upgrading my Macbook to Yosemite, the volume icon at the top right is greyed out and sound does not work.

After upgrading my Macbook to Yosemite, the volume icon at the top right is greyed out and sound does not work.

Interesting bug. I'm cautiously optimistic this will get rid of the weekly annoyance. The difference is that I bought my laptop back in Feb 2015, so it came with Yosemite. I think the issue may have appeared soon after an OS update not long after I got the thing, though. I was using a sudo command in the Terminal, but that is obviously not a fix.
I wonder if there is a broken .plist file that may be fixed ...?

TS3274 sound does not work on my ipad, it worked early today, but now it does not, not sure what happen

The sound on my ipad quit working, i was using it, and i went to do something, i come back to use it and now it does not work. I have it on full volume.
Can anyone help me please.
Thanks Louise

Try this - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

Hi,
Try the following.
Open windows Control Panel, open Windows Update, select 'View update history' in the left hand pane and then select 'Installed updates' link in the following window.
Locate update KB2962407, right click it and select Uninstall. When done, restart the notebook, open windows Control Panel, open Windows Update and select 'Check for updates'. You'll see the update you just uninstalled being offered again - right click and select 'Hide Update'.

My sound does not work on my computer

Hey
I don't know if anyone can help me but my sound is not working on my computer. I went to my system preferences and when I click on output it says that the device has no output controls. I don't know why it is doing this. Can anyone help me to solve this problem?

See:

* https://support.mozilla.org/kb/Video+or+audio+does+not+play
You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window, so make sure that Firefox is not muted or set at a low level.<br />
Current Firefox versions use the plugin-container process to run plugins, so you need to check the volume setting for the plugin-container process.<br />
You will only see the Firefox program or the Plugin Container in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.

My ipod say it has headphones in when it does not so the sound does not work. What do i do? I have already reset it a lot.

My ipod sound is not working! I dropped it in water and it works fine but i can not hear anything. It say theat it has headphones in but there are no headphones in. What do i do? I have already reset it.

Glad to have helped. One more thing to try, after drying your iPod. Try plugging and unplugging the headphone jack quickly about 12 times, it could be that the switch inside the port is stuck, many times this action will un-stick it. If the problem continues you may need to look into purchasing an out of warranty iPod, refurbished one are cheaper. Also, if you have not already done so, BACKUP ALL YOUR STUFF from this iPod to your computer, water damaged iPods have a habit of stop working without any notice. Hope this helps, Good luck.

Error: ELM does not work from UI

Hello guru´s,
hard to explain this briefly, but here it goes.
We´re trying to upload an ELM from UI, and it doesn´t work. But the thing is, if you just SAVE from UI (not launch), and then you go to CRMD_MKTLIST and you flag required fields, it works. But obviously, we need to do that from UI.
Besides this, we´ve implemented a Badi CRM_MKTLIST_BADI for a specific format but it´s never called from UI; however, if we simulate the execution from SAP GUI, this BADI works correctly.
Thanks in advance.

SunSudio Express (December 2006 release) introduces some
interesting new features, but there are still problems. For the first time,
I was able to debug Fortran 90 applications in Linux, but debugging is
still very limited. This is good to know that you were able to debug a f90 application
on Linux. What problems do you see? Please, report them, and we
will file them as bugs or RFEs (requests for enhancements).
Furthermore, the Fortran error parser does not work, even when
compiling using Sun's f95 compiler. Yes, you are right, this feature does not work yet.
This is a heavy disadvantage. I assume that Fortran error parsing
is not supported on Linux, although the tutorials don't make this
point clear: Yes, it does not work yet on all platforms.
In the Options window, there are settings concerning C/C++ (and
its parser), but there are no similar options for the Fortran parser,
even in "Advanced Settings" (which are similar to the old Options
window). There will be similar options for Fortran.
My Linux system is Debian 3.1 (Sarge), with JDK 1.5.0.09.JDK 1.5.0.09 is ok.
We do not target Debian system, but we assume everything
should work there (we test on Red Hat and SUSE).
Good to know that our assumption is correct :-)
I don't think that I'm doing something wrong, but I want to ask, just
to be sure: has someone had seen the Fortran error parser working
on Linux? No. It does not work on Linux, and it does not work on other platforms.
What about Fortran word completion? No, this feature is not implemented yet.
Thanks you for trying Sun Studio 12 Express release and for your report.

Magic mouse forward backward swiping does not work from time to time

Hello...
from time to time the forward/backward swiping functionality of my magic mouse does not work (The scrolling works though). Disconnecting and reconnecting does not do the trick. So I guess it might be a software problem. Restarting the iMac does not always help at once. After a couple of times it will work though again.
Can anyone help?
Regards
Bjoern
