Sound not working after Kindle Fire HD update.

Skype 2.x on the Kindle Fire HD was great.  A little buggy, but it worked very well overall.
I just received an involunatry update of Skype, to version 3.x, and now the app has a host of problems, the worst of which is that the sound during calls is too soft to be useable.
This applies to both the sound on both ends of the call.  I can barely hear the people I am calling, and they can barely hear me.
The application is now unuseable.

For aibcje
1. To delete the app, hold your finger down on the skype icon until it comes up with various options, then click on "remove from device"
2. Click on "Apps" at the top of the main front screen.
3. Now at the top of the screen you will see a button marked "Cloud" and "Device", press the "Cloud" icon and you should get to a page load of icons, with ticks in the corner.
4. Scroll through until you see the skype icon and click on it.
5. Now register with your old user name and password and you should be back up and running with the preinstalled version of skype.

  • Sound not working after checking for driver updates and resetting bios

    I am running a  (HP Pavilion dv7-6c60us Entertainment Notebook PC)
    I had muted the sound and did a system upgrad prompted by my HP assistant after logging on.   Now when I try to get sound nothing happens.  So I went out to the support site and checked for driver updates and none were found.  So I then went into my system bios and reset it as stated in a support for sound not working and still no sound.   HOW DO I GET MY SOUND TO WORK AGAIN?

     From your models support page Download & Save the latest Audio driver.Go into Control Panel,Programs & Features- Uninstall IDT software.Restart the laptop. After Windows loads, install IDT audio using the downloaded file.

  • Pavilion dv6-6c35dx - Sound not working after a HP Support update

    Pavilion dv6-6c35dx with windows 7
    I recently did a factory reset, and with the reset had to do all the updates. One of those updates from the HP Support assist was IDT High Definition Audio CODEC version 6.10.6381.0 on driver stwrt64.sys. And with that update i no longer have sound. When i put the cursor over the sound icon on the toolbar it says no headphones or speakers are plugged in. I already tried disabling and re-enableing the AMD HDMI output audio device through the control panel menus, didnt work, also it says its not plugged in. When i go into the hp supprt assist, to troubleshoot, to audio and sound, the status on the IDT says Error(52).
    How do i fix this?

    Hello everyone,
    Thanks for posting on the HP Forums!
    It would appear that you two are experiencing different issues. I will definitely address both of you!
    First, I feel it would be wise to perform a System Restore. You can return the computer to a point before the issue existed. Here's how to do it: Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7)
    If that doesn't work, then look at the below suggestions:
    *Before any real troubleshooting, please put your computer in a clean boot state. This should prevent third-party programs from interfering. This document provides information on how to do it: How to perform a clean boot in Windows*
    *Next, unlock a new Administrator account, so we can troubleshoot on a clean account. Open Command Prompt as Administrator, and hit Enter after typing the following: net user administrator /active:yes
    You will be able to log out of your current user account, and log into the Administrator one.
    *Finally, make sure all of your Windows updates are complete:
    1. Open "Windows Update" in Control Panel.
    2. Click "Settings", and then click "Install optional updates".
    3. Next, click "Check for updates".
    If that step doesn't work, then look below for the appropriate troubleshooting:
    @epicness50 , you need to perform all of the steps in this document: No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7)
    Also, since there is a Device Manager Error 52 issue, you may want to look here for additional information and suggestions: Code 52: Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device
    *The above Microsoft document is for Windows Vista and Server 2008, but the troubleshooting can be done in Windows 7.
    @LENNY12 , you mentioned you uninstalled and reinstalled Support Assistant. However, I'm going to ask you to do it again, but with a little more troubleshooting to address what could be causing the issue.
    Source of the troubleshooting is my own post: HP Support Assistant Windows 8.1
    Uninstall your version of Support Assistant in Control Panel, Programs and Features, then restart the computer.
    Solution: Download Support Assistant from its own special home
    1. Click on the following link: HP Support Assistant. It will bring you to the following page:
    2. Click on "Notebooks, laptops, netbooks " under "Download HP Support Assistant". It will prompt you to download it. So save it, then run it AS ADMINISTRATOR.
    If either of you are still experiencing issues,  I would perform a System Recovery to reinstall Windows. This will rule out which of the above options are to blame.
    First, you should backup your data. I will provide information on how to do that: Backing Up Your Files (Windows 7)
    Once this is done, it is safe to do the System Recovery. Here is some information on how to do this: Performing an HP System Recovery (Windows 7)
    Thanks and have a great day!

  • Home button not working after 5.0.1 update

    "For now" the problem is fixed for me.

  • Sound not working after resuming on maverik

    Sound stops working after resuming my Mbp. Reseting PRam solves this issue but its tempory. I have to restart my system everytime this issue occurs.
    I have one more issue regarding sound, which might be just another bug.
    When I plug my headphone, sound doesnt switch to head phone and I cant switch manually too from system preferences. To fix this issue, I have to close the lid and wait for a while for system to sleep and resume system. after resuming, Os starts detecting my headphone. strange!

    For those of you reading this just thought that I would update you.  After spending 90 minutes on the phone and resetting/restoring the phone twice, with two different level of tech support they have deemed this a hardware issue now.  This phone worked perfectly fine before the ios 6.1.2 update that was done yesterday.  Worked fine, played music, took calls, did all the sounds, then updated and now nothing!
    Our family has 4 iphones, several ipods and 2 ipads.  I am now left with a phone just out of warranty (by 2 mo) and no choice but to pay the $200 to apple to get another phone.  Apparently this is a steal because a new 4s costs $600.! lol.  I am greatly disappointed.  I have been given the corporate phone number and assured that there would be someone in customer service to talk to, but there was not, no surprise to me.  Anyone else have any suggestions?

  • Drobo not working after 10.5.8 update

    My drobo stopped working after 10.5.8 update. Now I lost all my data on the drobo. this doesn't make me happy.

    'We are using the USB interface (as opposed to firewire) because we want to share the drive across the network - it's not always about speed.'
    This makes absolutely no sense to me.. but maybe I am wrong : Because firewire is much more reliable than USB and manages to keep highest transfer rates (without jumping up and down as USB would do as soon as I/Os go up...) Especially on a Mac ! (only for the latency I am not too sure, but I guess it is similar on fw and USB.. just increase the caching if you stream hd movies on the network...
    From my experience, sharing a USB drive on the network is probably much worse.. you can find example on the web.. (Orb, Plex and else will start drop frames when connecting to a USB shared drive.)
    I currently use my drobo plugged to my Mini with a fw800 to 400 cable,4*1.5tb hdds, I also share it on the network with gigabit ethernet, and get much better performances than any usb shared drive.
    Sorry I do not have any precize measurement, but I can upload or download a 6tb file in about 10minutes over gigabit ethernet, and I guess the bottleneck is now the Drobo controller...
    The protocol you use may have an impact as well (afp, smb,...) but whatever you use, I suppose Firewire will be faster.
    As a general advice, do not update or upgrade anything in general before you have a backup of your data, this is true for any storage system, Drobo or not.
    Oh, and Data redundancy on a raid is not a backup of course.

  • External monitor Syncmaster 2494SW not working after 10.6.7 update

    External monitor Samsung Syncmaster 2494  SW stopped working after 10.6.7 update on 2011 MacBook Pro. I'm using miniDP-DVI adapter. The monitor shown correctly in Display Properties with right modes and name. MackBook recognizes connection but the monitor goes to PowerSave mode (LED indicator blinks).
    Safemode boot, SMC reset, PRAM reset did not help.
    Exactly the same setup works perfectly under 10.6.6.

    HERE IS THE EASY FIX SOLUTION FOR THIS PROBLEM GUYS:
    I have an 15inch MacBook Pro that I've just installed Snow Leopard 10.6.3 on.
    Prior to this install, I've had it hooked up to my Samsung SyncMaster 2243 via an Apple MDP/VGA adapter and a third party VGA cable. It has been flashing on and off a black screen every now and then for the past 2 years and I googled that it was just a crappy communication between the MBP and the Samsung... but now since installing 10.6.3, the Samsung display just flashes the desktop for a second then turns black for good - occationally flashing analogue/digtal prompt display. Tried everything for hours. Nothing worked, thought I was gonna have to buy a new all Apple VGA lead then came across Michael's above solution. Tried it and it worked IMMEDIATLY!!! And the monitor doesn't flash black anymore AT ALL!! Whoo-hoo!! Thanks heaps.
    WHAT TO DO TO FIX:
    Go to => System Preferences  => Energy Saver => change graphic settings to Higher Performace.
    Cheers!!

  • IPod touch not working after 5.0.1iOS update

    It seems like a lot of people are having issues after the new 5.0.1iOS update. I want to share my frustration and what problems I'm facing. After the update my ipod won't sync properly. It freezes my computer and then my computer shuts down everytime I have my ipod connected to my computer. My music and apps on my iPod are like ghosts they are visible but do NOT work after being pressed. I tried resetting the ipod, same problem. I uninstalled and reinstalled iTunes, same problem. There is only problems with my computer when the iPod is plugged into the computer and trying to update. I am so ANGRY because I love my iPod and I can't use it to listen to music or communicate with my family and friends. I hope Apple will help all of us soon and fix these HUGE bugs, and FAST.

    Have you tried the sandard fixes:
    - Reset. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch:  Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    - Retore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
