Sound/Mic Failure in Adobe Connect Solved Only by Reboot

Hi...
HP p6620F
Windows 7
For my job, I must attend meetings in Adobe Connect using sound and mic. I'm using a Microsoft Lifechat headset/mic. My sound & mic began to fail & problem was resolved only by rebooting my computer. The fix would last a few hours at first, but began to last for only about an hour. I"m a work at home customer service agent, and I rely on my mic & sound. I'm having no problems at this point with sound when not working--such as listening to music or watching/hearing YouTube videos.
My supervisors insist that my soundcard needs replacing, but I don't have one; mine is integrated into the motherboard, apparently. I have a backup computer which I worked off of for 2 days with my current headset, and it worked fine. It's the family computer and I must get my work computer up to par.
How can I fix this without buying a new motherboard???
Thanks in advance.

  • Adobe Connect Session only works after 5:00 pm

    I have a bizzare situation where my adobe connect session only works after 5:00 pm. I have two other users who tried this and the session just hangs and then there is an error . But when both of us try after 5:00 it works fine. We are using IE 8.0. Also this will work fine in firefox at any time of the day. We have to roll this out to 2,000 users and need to get this working during the day.

    I'm searching for an answer to almost the same exact problem, using almost the same exact hardware and software. Has an answer been found?
    The files that I'm trying to burn come from eMusic, and they are formatted mp3. Recently, (after the iTunes update to 9.2.3?,) they would not drag and drop from iTunes into Toast. From several different discussions I've tried working around this by dragging to the desktop first then dragging and dropping to Toast, going to Toast from a programmer's homemade help window, " iToons," and today, after talking with Apple support, going directly to Toast from my eMusic folder. Alas, all recordings do not perform like they use to. Sometimes they play and sometimes not. There is one I managed, that is listenable, but sometimes I have to put it in my car stereo over and over again as it gets ejected with an error code, sometimes, finally it takes it... Some of the recordings on other disks I've burned are not clean - they have white-noise sounds creeping in... I use to have none of these problems. One time as I was listening to a CD that managed to play, and it just stopped playing... Is there an answer out there to get back to how it use to be? Thanks for you help.

  • High quality mic on external usb-soundcard dosen't work with Adobe Connect. Why?

    Hello
    A friend of mine bought a quite good microphone and a good extrernal soundcard for recording podcasts. Everything works fine. But know she wants to use the microphone for Adobe Connect, because of the very good sound quality. Adobe Connect finds it an you can select it, but now singal comes into Adobe Connect. But it works with every other Adobe application. So why doesn't it work with Adobe Connect?
    The soundcard is the Tascam US-122 Mk2. Normaly very uncomplicated ..
    Thanks for any advice!

    I connect my bus-powered HDs (more than one) to the iMac all the time without any problems. I have found, though, that for me the FireWire enclosures work much better (faster and more stable) than the USB2 ones. I have had the USB2 drives freeze my computer once or twice when I connected the HD, but nothing like that has ever happened with the FireWire connections. (I switched the same disk from USB to a FireWire enclosure, so all other elements were kept constant in my experiments.)
    One of my HD is in a MacAlly 2.5" enclosure that offers both FireWire and USB2. The other one is in some generic enclosure with only USB2. Both are bus-powered and both work fine.

  • Adobe Connect Plug-in failure: either video och shared screens / documents

    Hi
    I'm Sven-Erik Tiberg imeet admin at Lulea Univ. of Technology.
    We have 7 studios for confernaces and distance education all running Adobe Connect and other conferance systems.
    Each studio has a dedicated computer running Adobe Connect where video and sound are routed trugh a programable Mutlimedia switch.
    That's the big picture.
    Connect are running perfect in 6 studios but we got challanges in the high end studio where all videos streams are in HDSI format 1250 - 750 / 24 bit.
    We can either broadcast connect-video by uninstalling the Adobe Connect add-on OR share whiteboard / computer screens / documents by installing the add-in.
    Have tried with vers. 9 add-in w/o any improvements.
    We have made some test applications using flash to display the video and as you guess the video are displayed with great satisfaction.
    Are there any add-in out there / in test that can help us.
    PS. all 7 studios are booked appr. 70% of day and evening time so we are in a bit of hurry getting also this studio running in full production.
    Greetings.

    Some clarifications,the capture card we uses are Datapath VisionRGB E1 and E2 using DVI capture.
    http://www.datapath.co.uk/visionrgbE1.html
    The source is from a Tandberg Camera using 1280x720P@ 50 Hz.
    The video is routed trough a HDSDI router trough a HDSDI to HDMI converter (AJA Hi5 3G).
    http://www.aja.com/products/converters/converters-hd-hi53g.php
    The capture card supports direct show capture and works well on other video tools; Windows Movie Maker, Skype, etc. and also with Flash based capture tools such as Tokbox and normal Flash video capture (Tested using Actionscript 3)
    Camera = Camera.getCamera()
    Video = new Video()
    So so long everything is fine, but in Adobe Connect we have some problems!
    It captures video in Adobe Connect when the plugin is not installed, but when the plugin is installed, just an icon and the plugin tells that video is broadcasted, but no video is shown or broadcasted to other Connect users!
    When we uninstall the Add-in the video works as it should again, but without the plugin no screen sharing and we want both!
    What is the difference with the video capture using the normal Connect program and the Connect Add-in.
    Tested with both the latest 7 Add-in as well as the Adobe Connect 8 add-ins
    Any one seen this problem before?
    Seems like this has been an issue before:

  • X-Fi sound channel failure.

    X-Fi sound channel failure. I am currently using an X-Fi XtremeMusic PCI card on a 5. speaker system. Sound is not correctly generating on the all speaker channels. When I first started having this issue, the front right channel stopped generating sound through the X-Fi software. Channel tests would produce sound on all the other speakers. However, while playing music or a game, sound could faintly be heard on the front right channel. Setting the speaker options to use head phones instead of 5. speakers would work fine, but would not generate sound properly for the front right channel under any other configuration. I have double checked all the connections and the speaker unit and they are all set up and functioning correctly. Switching between Entertainment mode and Game mode did not seem to fix or alter the issue.
    I? uninstalled and reinstalled the drivers with the latest driver (2.8.008). All the speaker channels started working again when I did a quick channel test. However, once I adjusted the volume control to 00%, the rear left, rear right, center and subwoofer channels all died. The headphone setting still works as expected, and switching between any other speaker settings did not otherwise change the results. Switching from Game mode to Entertainment mode did cause a new quirk though. The channel test labeled the front left speaker correctly, but sent the front center sound to the front right speaker and from there no other channels responded.
    So right now I am trying to determine weather this is a software issue or a hardware issue. If its just hardware, I can solve that problem by getting a new card. If its software, obviously getting a new card (same/similar model) is not a sure fix, but fixing the software issue would save me from buying new hardware.
    I am running Windows XP SP3 on an AMD Phenom 3x 8750, nForce 750a chipset and a Gforce 9600 GT. The X-Fi card is the only addon device on the PCI bus.

    Re: X-Fi sound channel failure.e How? Are there instruction on how to do that?
    What I've done so far is use the Creative Diagnostic to test everything to make sure it is working properly. It says it is. I checked the Device Manager, and everything seems to check out there also.
    I think something might be missing. When I tried to download the lastest version of Creative Diagnostics, everything seems to be just fine, until the very end. That's when this message comes up? "Setup did not detect the required components. Setup will exit." Then when I checked to see if anything was interfering with the Creative software, a yellow question mark does show up, but not by or in the Creative part. It is 2 spots above, and says "Other Devices--Audio Device on High Definition Audio Bus"
    What could be missing though? I still have the Creative CD to download everything. I've tried that, but still, that yellow ? comes up and says? "Setup did not detect the required components. Setup will exit."? Shouldn't everything be in that CD!? It always worked before.

  • Where can i get an hdmi driver so i can get sound in my tv when connected to my hp pavilion dv6

    where can i get an hdmi driver so i can get sound in my tv when connected to my hp pavilion dv6

    Hi,
    HDMI sound is actually comes with the video card. DV6 is a reries of dozens if not hundreds of models, which one is yours ? Please use the following steps to check and fix:
    General Instructions for Setting Up HDMI Audio
    Preliminary steps:
    1. Plug the laptop into a power source. Some of the models have a power management scheme that will not allow for HDMI audio while running on batteries. Later, after you get your HDMI audio working, if you find that it still does not work on batteries you can change your power management settings in the Control Panel.
    2. HDMI has its own audio driver separate from the audio system of the computer ( Sigmatel, IDT, or Realtek ) . It is incorporated into the graphics card's driver so make sure you have the newest version of your graphics card driver. On models with Intel graphics the HDMI audio driver will appear in the Device Manager as "Audio Device on High Definition Audio Bus".
    3. Turn off the computer and TV before connecting the HDMI cable. Later, after you get your HDMI audio working, if you disconnect the cable while the computer is running and lose your audio, try closing and then re-opening whichever program you were using that generates audio.
    4. Every time you try a different solution you should reboot the computer. HDMI audio is extremely finicky and seems to usually need a reboot.
    Make the Connection:
    1. Connect the HDMI cable to the computer and TV. If the TV has a "DVI/HDMI" port do not use it. Use a port for HDMI only.
    2. Turn on the TV and select the HDMI port you are using. Adjust the TV settings to receive HDMI audio if any.
    3. Turn on the computer. (Optional, some people close the laptop lid immediately after hitting the power button but I am not sure why. Most people should not need to do this.)
    4. Optional. Some models do better if the TV is set to be the primary display. To set, repeatedly press Fn+F8 (or ctrl+alt+F4) to cycle through the settings (laptop display only/laptop display plus external display/external display only). Reboot the laptop.
    5. Go to Start>Control Panel>Sound>Playback tab. Make "HDMI" the default device. (If "HDMI" is not there, right click in the white area and look under "Show Disconnected Devices" or "Show Disabled Devices" and see if it is there.)
    Post Connection Problems:
    1. If there is still no option to select "HDMI' as the default audio playback device, try re-installing or updating the graphics driver, or even try an older version. The graphics driver is the driver for HDMI audio, not the regular audio driver. A few people with Intel graphics had better results by uninstalling the graphics driver, rebooting, and letting Windows look for a driver (instead of downloading the driver from the Dell support site).
    2. Try disconnecting and then reconnecting the HDMI cable.
    3. If you are using Windows Media Player or Windows Media Center but get no HDMI audio even after it is selected as the default playback device, go to
    Control Panel>Sound>Playback tab>Audio/Playback device>HDMI>properties>Advance>Exclusive Mode and uncheck "exclusive mode".
    4. Try a different HDMI cable.
    5. Try a different HDMI port on the TV.

  • Adobe Connect 9 Meeting Recording Playback & Audio

    Hello All,
    I have noticed a strange issue with my meeting recording playbacks.
    First Adobe Connect 9.0.2
    Windows 7 Platform
    I have noticed that after the recording is over, and I run playback to confirm we got what we need...the connected telephone feed (pgi/centurylink) does not come through on first press of play.
    The video stream (slides, screen share) will run properly, but there is no sound upon first press of play. If I click the scrubber and drag it back to the open, then the audio will start to play.
    I am ok with this work around...however my learners/audience will not be. I am looking for "Press Play and Listen" functionality to keep it simple.
    A curious note (these are often good clues, so I figured I would share) The MP3 player pod which is running in the lobby prior to the start of the speaker, is PC sound and it plays back in the recording with no issue. It is only when the telephone feed starts (layout change, and speaker introduction) that the issue begins.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!

    As I understand it, it is on the road map for Adobe. Though I've not heard anything other than rumors, so more information would be hard to provide.
    I don't know of any third party extensions, other than using something like Camtasia or another screen capture tool.

  • Flash Movie Presentations in Adobe Connect

    We have been working with one of our customers on delivering
    an on line sales tool using the Adobe Connect environment. They for
    the usual legal reasons wished to use a sales aid they had already
    created. This was a flash based CD-rom with various flash movies
    initiated by rollovers and buttons.
    But there was two problems:
    1. The index would not work i.e. the menu page appeared but
    the subsequent movies and animations could not be found
    2. The click throughs and rollovers would not synchronizes,
    i.e. if the presenter moved forward through the presentation the
    participants did not.
    Both of these obviously make it useless.
    After over three weeks of R&D we (David Kwaw , Steve
    Grovenor and J ) have developed a bespoke piece of programing,
    based on Sync SWF
    http://www.adobe.com/devnet/acrobatconnect/articles/basic_syncswf_pt1.html
    That solves this issue, we have since refined the coding so
    that ONLY the presenter has control of the flash presentation,
    making it more like Adobe Presenter just ALOT more flexible and
    better looking.
    If you would like to know more... just drop us a line.

    Everything except for the alpha transparency video is easily doable in Edge.
    Rather then trying to shoehorn html5 video with an alpha transparency into Edge (not sure if this is doable), you could potentially use a png sequence or spriteSheet to play back those animations. Though the file size will be very large, and Edge does not have native implementation for png sequences or spriteSheet playback. yet.
    John Dunning built a plugin for Fireworks to export a spritesheet as an Edge symbol:

  • Issues with playback in Adobe Connect 8

    I am a new user to Adobe Connect 8. I just created my first meeting
    yesterday. I was able to hear the playback myself, but when I sent the
    link provided to another e-mail, I was unable to hear the sound from the
    link ( I see all the slides, which run through in 5 second intervals),
    the sound is at maximum level on both the playback and on my computer.
    The second issue I have is that I have received two messages-one e-mail
    "You may be at risk of running out of seats for Adobe Connect. In
    particular, your account (name = QUESTAR III20120321093023) quota for
    Authors has exceeded the threshold of 80% usage on Thursday 16 August
    2012, 08:43 AM. This means you used at least 80% of your 5 available
    seats.  You may want to consider adding more seats to your account".
    Do you have any suggestions for this? I added 4 other colleagues who
    will need to have access to utilize Adobe Connect in the future-should I
    only add them when they need to be the moderator/host?
    I have watched many of the video tutorials, which were helpful but I am
    trying to trouble shoot this in quick fashion as I have been asked to
    turn key train this for staff.

Is that a “cloud based” server that allows us access (I am assuming it was part of the purchase). I have moved all 4 people to the Meeting Host group now-thank you for that clarification.
    I have just found out where the link for viewing/listening is: it is located in the recordings section and I am able to click on and listen in the Adobe Presenter

  • Problems running Adobe Connect add-in under XenApp

    This is a real stab in the dark but it's a serious problem for us. Something has changed recently with Adobe Connect that means the add-in (adobeconnectaddin.exe) is hanging at the "Connecting" prompt. We're running Windows 2003 Terminal Server with Citrix XenApp v5 on top.
    I suspect it's a problem with Flash acceleration features baked into HDX Flash, part of XenApp but it used to work. Flash v11.3 or higher broke HDX Flash but I don't think that's the problem as I've gone back to a very basic XenApp build with nothing much apart from the OS, XenApp, Flash v11.2.202.235 and the latest add-in - same crash occurs. If I happen to logon to the console using RDP, the fault doesn't occur hence my reason for suspecting it's the Citrix Receiver client/HDX Flash/Adobe Connect Pro add-in nightmare combo!
    But considering I've gone back to an earlier image of XenApp (we keep copies of all builds) from February where Adobe Connect used to work fine, I suspect something has now changed with ACP that's broken it on XenApp.
    As I said, it's a shot in the dark because this is a relatively unusual set-up and we're on an old version of XenApp/Windows as well.
    But help!
    Cheers, Rob.

    Rob, it sounds like port 1935 is being blocked. Can you verify that that port is open?
    Have you gone to the Test Your Computer page for your connect account. After the diagnostics run, choose to send and email and then click on the details... link to see the results of the test.
    Here is a link to that page for our hosted account, if that makes it easier: http://realeyesconnect.adobeconnect.com/common/help/en/support/meeting_test.htm
    If needed, Connect only requires FP 10.3 or newer. If it comes to it, an older version of the Flash Player can be tested.

    I realize this discussion is a couple of years old but I am having a very similar problem and just as much trouble trying to solve it....so I am really hoping to find some help here!
    I work as a corporate trainer for an organization of 800+ employees.  A new part of the annual performance evaluations, the employees are going to enroll & participate in recorded training classes that are available to them.  The Training department has created the list of several dozen courses which the employee may choose from.
    My problem is this - my department & I need to generate a report that displays the users who have participated in any training over a set period of time.
    For example: "100 employees took 17 classes in the month of July".
    I have fiddled around with the "System Usage Report" and a few others but they are not as helpful or as inclusive as we need them to be.  The only option I am seeing at this point is running separate reports for each course and then compiling all of that data into one master list.  I feel that will take an obsene amount of work, especially for something that will have to be regularly (like every month).
    Any assistance or insight that anyone can offer is greatly appreciated!
