Sound not right in games

i have the K7N2 and i can not get the sounds in my games to work right, namely Quake3 and nascar season 2002 and sugestions??????

I heard the same thing about sound issues, some simply ended up sticking an Audigy in there nforce2...
Some dont get any problems at all but only using the latest nforce2 drivers...
im sure drivers will fix this in time, maybe try disabling EAX or 3d sound.... might help.

Ipod nano sound not right - please help!

Hi, I got an ipod nano for my birthday today, followed the instructions and loaded it all in, loaded all my CD's into itunes, loaded them all onto the nano, but when I finally came to listen to my songs, the sound is all weird. The vocals are very quiet and out of sync with the music, and the music sounds 'distorted'. Any ideas?? All help greatly received, I'm so sad!

Lianne:
Welcome to the Apple Discussion Boards. I assume as this is your first post that you have not used Macs or iTunes before. Have you listened to your music within iTunes on your computer? Does it sound OK there?
As a first step, I would check your settings in iTunes. Go to Preferences/Advanced/Importing and be sure the setting are at least 160kbs (High Quality).

Sound not coming out for right headphone

If I press the headphone jack backwards, I can get sound coming out of both earpieces. However, if I just let it stand still, I can only hear it coming out of the left side. I tried different headphones, so it's the iPod and not the headphones.
My warranty expired 2 days ago (naturally) and I want to know if there's anyway to manually fix this. Or if it's possible to visit an Apple store to fix it.

1) Plug your headphones into another source, such as
a stereo. Does the problem still exist? If not, then
it is the iPod itself and not the headphones. If it
does still exist, then it is your headphones.
2) If under warranty, Apple will ship you a new set
of headphones for no charge as long as you return the
defective part in the envelope provided with the new
part they send you.
Oh gee, that's useful. So what's the fix if it's not the headphones?
I guess it's off to the apple store for me!
Does anyone else notice that all of us have no sound in right ear? Could it be an intrinsic flaw?

I muted the sound while playing angry birds and now I can't get the sound back. I have the sound on ipod, just not with the games.

If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds 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 task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.

HT4972 It says iTunes will not back up games, apps, etc. Does that mean they will be lost? I have iPad 2, and would like to get iOS 6. Can I do that? Right now it is iOS 4. If I can get 6, do I have to go to 5 first?

I would like to upgrade my iPad to iOS 6. It is currently iOS 4.3.5. Can I do that? The article from apple says iTunes will not back up games, apps, etc. Does that mean I will lose them? Some of them I paid for and don't want to lose.

Yes you can upgrade from 4.3.3 to 6.0.
Your media - apps, games, music, photos, and so are not included in the backup. Your app data, settings, and many other things are included in the backup. After you update the iPad, you should sync with iTunes in order to put all of that content back into the iPad. This is what I recommend doing - I do it myself every time I update my iPads, or iPod Touch.
What you should do anytime that you update the device is to transfer purchases from the iPad into iTunes - File>Transfer Purchases - and you should backup the iPad as well. When you update the update the device, if something goes wrong, you can restore from the backup.
If you have any other important files, you may want to transfer them to your computer as well, prior to the update.
Transfer purchases.

Odd sound change in some games

Background: I recently installed Windows XP, and updated the drivers using the Creative Updater on the support site. since then whenever i run a specific game (DiabloII in this situation) the sound automatically gets louder and degraded. Previously I was running windows 98 with the .vxd version drivers without any issues. This occurs regardless of whether EAX/AudioHQ is installed or not. Originally I tried a driver upgrade installation, since then I've also tried a clean installation of the drivers with the same results..
sound card: Soundblaster Audigy (not mp3, platinum, gamer etc...) / 5.2.5.44 version drivers.
I've seen a couple of posts regarding the EAX control panel and settings while running some games. In the posts I've read, when AudioHQ is installed there is no ability to change the EAX settings while the game runs. Previous posts have suggested a clean installation of the drivers to remedy the issue, which does not seem to work in this case.
Mostly this is affecting me due to the fact i run a minidisc player on the line in jack. Even though I change the source of the line in settings, so that the line in doesn't use the master settings, the line in is still affected. In windows 98, if a game attempted to override the eax settings this was the fix i used.
Any suggestions are appreciated.

Is it all apps or just some games. Some games have their own sound settings. If it is all apps, you may have system sounds muted.

IPad sound not working

iPad sound not working. Need help

Is it working on any apps e.g. Music and Videos apps but not third-party apps or notification sounds ? If you do get sound in Music and Videos then have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

Upgraded window from vista to 7 on pavilion DV7 sound not working

Hi,
Try the following.
Download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp45001-45500/sp45073.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, restart the notebook and let Windows fully load. Open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.
If you still have no audio, open windows Control Panel, open Administrative Tools and open Services. Check that the following services are all showing as Status= Started and Start-up Type= Automatic
Audio Service
Multimedia Class Scheduler
Windows Audio
Windows Audio Endpoint Builder
If you need to make a change to any of the above, just right click the service and select Properties, then in the dropdown box next to 'Start-up type', select Automatic and click Apply to save the change. Then click the Start button.

DP-K

Keyboard clicking sounds or power cord sounds not working. Mute is off.

All of a sudden, the sounds when using the keyboard and attaching the power cord to charge the battery don't work. I have checked and my iTunes app has sound and the mute function is off. I've turned sounds off, powered off, turned sounds back on and powered off. Can't figure out what happened.

In spite of what you said about sounds not being muted, what you are describing is exactly what happens when SYSTEM sounds are muted. You also do not list which iPad you are using and which iOS you are running. If you have the iPad Air 2, you do not have a side switch so your system sounds will be controlled in the control center,

Some Sounds Not Working Since iOS5 Update On My iPAD 2

Since installing the iOS5 update on my iPad2, I am not getting keyboard click sounds, App sounds or Connection sounds. I did a complete reset and the sounds came back until I restored my backup. Now they're gone again. So obviously it may be something I have setup or a bug in iOS5 I would REALLY have to do a complete reset and setup my iPad2 from scratch again, so any ideas would be appreciated!

First make sure that you have the sounds turned on in Settings>General>Sounds. If they are turned on then read the following.

HT4623 sound not working

Sound stopped working. Checked settings but not sure how to reset sound or troubleshoot. Any help is appreciated.

There are several different things that you can check, and those things are dependent on which sounds are not working.
1. If you have no sound at all, even in the Music App, try rebooting the iPad.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
2. If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
