Sound not working in iTunes only

For awhile after downloading the newest iTunes 7 version everything was going well, until one day I restarted my computer and now I don't have sound. Everything runs and plays correctly, but there's no sound. I know there's nothing wrong with my speakers because everything besides iTunes is working normally. Any suggestions as to what may be wrong?

Same issue here. The sound no longer works in itunes only. The sound works fine in all other applications, passes the quicktime hardware tests. I have uninstalled and installed itunes for windows. All music appears to play, but no sound. Black diamond runs across as normal, videos appear to play - you can see the video, but there is no sound.
The last change to my system was the installation of the video game "Need for Speed" which has since been removed.
Itunes 7.2.0.2.16   Windows XP

  • 5.1 Surround sound not working in iTunes any suggestions?

    My 5.1 surround sound will not work with iTunes it only plays out of the front left and front right speaker. In other programs it runs fine any suggestions on how to make it work in iTunes?

    All my players (WMP, Realplayer, AvRack) play 5.1 surround except iTunes.
    I've tried the Quicktime Pro adjustments as posted. No luck.
    Does Apple post here?
    From all the surround ?'s, it seems the player won't do surround anymore?
    thanks,

  • Sound not working, but itunes works

    i dont know what happened. im assuming i pressed some configuration of keys and did something. itunes works, plays music, if you select a ringtone it works, but only for the preview and not when my phone is ringing. no other sound effects works. what gives? i turned it off and back on and nothing.

    http://www.pinssible.com/blog/2013/07/padgram-has-no-sound-when-playing-instagra m-video/
    I finally have sound thanks to this site!...
    Essentially:
    - double tap the home button
    - swipe finger to the right & the orange music icon + play controls will appear at the bottom of the screen
    - the sound icon will likely have a slash through it, indicating that the sound is muted --> tap the sound icon to remove this slash and turn the sound on
    That's it!
    *I also discovered that this set of controls provides quick access to altering screen brightness (located beside the sound icon), as opposed to adjusting it via settings (which is more time consuming)!!
    Below are the directions provided on the site I referenced, which I paraphrased and provided additional details to above. Read these if you need further explanation:
    "Open iPad “Settings” -> “General”, if “Use Side Switch to: ” is set to “Mute”, then make sure your iPad’s Side Switch is not turned on.
    If “Use Side Switch to: ” is set to “Lock Rotation”, then double tap the “Home” button, swipe from left to right on the task bar, until reaching the first page. Make sure the “Sound” icon is not set to Mute."
    I hope this solves your sound problem!

  • 5.1 Surround Sound not working on iTunes

    Here's an odd question. I a CMedia 8738 chipset generic soundcard with 5.1 surround sound. I just got a Vista driver for it but now my iTunes only plays out of the front three speakers and subwoofer.
    Any ideas why it shuts down the rear speakers?

    SameSame. I'll add that surround works fine with all other programs I tried. I also attempted all combinations of settings from within Quiktime and continue to update itunes, to no avail.

  • Sound not working on itunes 9.0?

    I have a dell computer with windows vista. I have a new iphone and wanted to sync it with computer. I downloaded itunes 9.0 and have had lots of problems syncing it with my new iphone, however the biggest problem now is that the sound has stopped working on my itunes. The sound works really well on my computer in all other programmes. I have recently installed updates for vista also. I have uninstalled itunes and reinstalled it several times. I have also checked my sound drivers on my computer and there are no problems. I am not very technical and have no idea what todo next. Any suggestions would be great.

  • ITunes RADIO is not working.  "iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again." Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so -  iTu

    iTunes RADIO is not working.
    “iTunes could not connect to the iTunes Store. Make sure your internet connection is active and try again.” Try as I may, as many as ten attempts, trying to connect after restart, after shutdown, nothing works. Just so …
    iTunes STORE not “connectable” with my otherwise perfectly-working internet connection, viable, up and running for all other uses.
    Simply put, firstly, I can't connect to the internet when I click on Radio.  People are quite suspicious that this is Apple incompetence or your company's famous arrogance for this commonly-suffered problem that you won't or “can’t” fix.
    Read the many web comments and you won’t be pleased with yourselves: the suspicion is that if you ruin internet radio on iTunes, Apple will somehow make more money on music downloads, etc. Bull.
    Also, thirdly, my old playlist of 20 or so internet radio stations in the Ambient category STILL PLAYS !
    Then fourth, I installed the latest available version of QuickTime Player 7.app Version 7.6.6 but it didn’t solve the problem either. I had QuickTime Player.app Version 10.2, but substituted what Apple website said was the latest, LOWER NUMBERED QuickTime Player version of 7.6.6
    Fifth, I can't connect to iTunes store no matter what I do or what user group's advice I try. So I can’t buy or download anything from iTunes. Bad for business.
    Sixth, I updated to the latest version of iTunes but this weird problem remains. All suggested Apple fixes or user group fixes are useless. Where is Apple’s famous technical competency, vaunted customer support?, and user-friendly product reputation? Get it back, please.
    Solve this problem of yours ASAP for us, your numerous disgruntled, dissatisfied customers of iTunes. You can do better, should, and really –in all fairness- must.
    ===============================================================
    NOTE:  no password for iTunes exists in my Keychain. Is this a problem?
    Apple ACCOUNT ID, and iTunes ID password, works but not to access iTunes with my healthy internet connection.
    Apple store id It works via direct internet connetion but not through iTunes.  Very strange.

  • AUDIODG.EXE hogging 80-100% of CPU and sound not working in Vista . . .

    I posted this on a Microsoft Answers Forum but none of the techs or people reading have been able to help so far.  I'm dying to get to the bottom of this:
    Here is my computer:
    MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum
    AMD Athlon 64 3000+
    2GB RAM
    XFX GEFORCE 6600 GT 128MB DDR3 DUAL DVI & TV OUT (PCI-E)
    200GB WD SATA HDD
    500GB WD HDD in external enclosure via USB2
    NEC ND-3520A 16X DVD±RW Dual Layer DVD Burner
    LG CD Burner
    I've been using Vista Home Premium successfully for some time.  Recently, not too long after I did a clean wipe of my OS, my audio would stop working.  The way it would happen is that everything would work fine until I started iTunes or another audio application and when I would hit play, things would lock up.
    Upon inspection of my system resources, I'm noticing that the audio platform for Vista, via the audiodg.exe, is using close to 100% of my CPU resources, even when the computer is making no sound at all.
    I've had a Sound Blaster Live! card in my computer for some time but I was not using it; I use the Realtek AC'97 audio drivers that are on my motherboard instead.  I thought that the conflict may be the computer wanting to recognize my Sound Blaster, so I took it out of my computer but the problem seems to be worse.
    Are there any BIOS setting that need to be adjusted for my sound to start working again?
    I'm very reliant on the audio processing power of my computer (I'm in the radio industry, part-time) and this is a huge drag on my productivity.
    Any tips would be much appreciated.
    REPLY #1:
    Thank you for using Microsoft Answers forum.  I suggest going to the manufacture of your sound card and download the latest drivers and install them.
    MY RESPONSE:
    Good suggestion.  The problem is this:
    I am running on-board audio.  I have an MSI K8N Neo4 Platinum motherboard which runs "Realtek ALC Series AC97 Audio Driver" and there is no version for Vista. They have a version for Windows 2K/XP and one for Windows XP 64bit.
    Should I use on of those and if not, then what?
    UPDATE (from me):
    I took a chance and found a Realtek AC'97 driver for Vista.
    http://drivers.softpedia.com/progDownload/Realtek-AC-97-Audio-Codec-Driver-Vista-6183-Beta-Download-18114.html
    I went to install it and the install hung.  So, I closed one of the install windows and then the InstallShield app continued like it was working.  So, I hit "Restart my computer".  Well, the reboot hung too.  So, I reset the PC manually.
    When the computer came back up, the sound worked.  Hard to tell if this will fix it for good but it's promising.  Chaotic.  Unpredictable.  Annoying.
    REPLY #2:
    Before you tried updating drivers, did you try rebooting 1st?
    I'm just trying to determine if rebooting your system is what resolved the issue - thank you
    UPDATE II (from me):
    My computer is behaving the same way it was before.  AUDIODG.EXE taking up 80-100% of my CPU and the sound not working.
    Any other ideas?

    Small update: Despite my intelligence, good looks and vast experience I use Google sometimes. To my surprise this file turns out to be a Windows one. Here is someone who is much happier, and since it is some way in my line of thinking I'll quote it, but you might take my previous advice as well:
    http://forums.techarena.in/windows-vista-performance/1012315.htm
    "- Open up msconfig.exe > Manage startup programs.
    - Disable ALL Realtek entries
    - Close msconfig.exe
    - Right-click on the speaker icon > Audio devices > Speakers (properties)
    - Go to the enhancements tab
    - Check the box to disable all audio enhancements
    - Close the menu
    - Right-click on the speaker icon > Recording devices
    - Disable all your microphones (yeah..., the actual problem seems to come
    from voice inputs rendering..)
    - Close the menu
    - Restart your computer"

  • Automatically Add to iTunes folder is not working in iTunes 10.1

    Hello,
    I have a problem since the iTunes Update 10.0->10.1.
    The "Automatically Add to iTunes" folder is not working in iTunes 10.1.
    Whenever I put mp3-files in that folder, iTunes only adds these files when I start iTunes. I put some new files in this folder and nothing happens. Only when I restart iTunes the mp3s are added to my library.
    Greetings
    Thomas

    It always worked that way. iTunes only acts on that folder if iTunes is running. It does not have to be playing, but it does need to be open.
    If you add files to the Automatically Add folder while iTunes is closed, they will sit there until iTunes is restarted.

  • My video recording sounds not working but other sounds are working fine, I've tried clearing the little mic thing near my earphone hole and had no success can someone please help me out?

    hhi guys
    my video recording sounds not working at all but it's working for other things such as music. I've tried to clear my sound thing near the earphone hole but had no success can someone please help me out?

    Had an Iphone 4 for about 3 months now. This happened to the first one I had and they ended up having to replace it at the apple store just a couple weeks ago 6/2. It happened again last night to my new one. This time i was able to correct it by going to itunes, backing up the phone to icloud, and then restoring the software. Mine did not work with voice memo, but did work with headphones plugged in, and would also work on speaker. I could hear callers but they couldn't hear me. I had purchased a new case (lifeproof case at $79.99) because it comes with plugs that cover the headphone jack, and the charging port, and is also waterproof. I heard that the root cause is due to lint, dirt, etc getting inside the headphone jack. Well, must be something else. It's a 10 days old phone, and has been in this overpriced case the whole time, and I have not used the headphones. I hope this doesn't keep happening.

  • 5.1 sound not working

    I have a X-Fi fatalty titanium champion series sound card with logitech z5500 5. speakers running vista x64 sp. I cannot fully utilize the 5. speakers for some reason. I have updated to the latest drivers, selected 5. speakers from both windows and the creative console launcher but then i get some butchered sound from only the front left and right speakers. I know the other speakers work bc if i only use 2. then i get the sound but it lacks the entire 5. stereo effects. Please [email protected]

    Re: 5. sound not working?
    cedricganon wrote:
    Ive tried all those options but nothing. Device manager also says it is Creative SB X-fi. whats also suspicious is that if i use the sound card built into the motherboard, i get the same problem.
    When testing the speakers i only have sound from the front left and right speakers. the others are silent. thats through both the vista tester and Creative tester
    If that's the case I strongly suggest you test the speaker's connections out, probably on a separate PC if possible!
    Also check this [url="http://logitech-en-amr.custhelp.com/cgi-bin/logitech_en_amr.cfg/php/enduser/std_adp.php?p_faqid=9692">FAQ[/url] out for more details on connection and settings of the Z5500 speakers when used with a desktop PC.

  • 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

  • HELP iPad mini sound not working

    We just bought our daughter her iPad mini today and the sound just stopped working. It'll only work with headphones; we never put headphones in prior to the sound not working. I tried resetting the phone and phone settings several times, as well as plugging in and out headphones. I changed the switch on the side to lock rotate. I also turned off the mono sound thing. I am at a loss as to what else there is to do. Any other suggestions? I've been at this for a couple of hours now trying to fix her iPad. Please help!

    Do you get sounds in any apps on the iPad ?
    If you get sound in the Music and Videos apps but not others then have you got notifications muted ? You say that you changed the side switch to rotation lock, but are sounds muted ? The switch on the side of the iPad controls either rotation or mute, the function that it isn't controlling is set via the iPad's control centre : swipe up from the bottom edge of the iPad's screen and it's the right-most of the 5 icons in the middle of it (if the icon is white then it's 'on', tap it to turn it grey and 'off').
    Notification mute and rotation lock : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • 10.5.1 Sound Not Working

    If I start my Mac and try to watch any .mov file, there is no sound.
    However, if I open a web page, such as YouTube, and watch a video, there is sound.
    Then, if I restart QuickTime and watch the first .mov file, there is sound.
    Anyone have issues with sound not working.

    Hey Ron,
    Do you get the opening chime before the OS loads?
    You might want to try downloading that QT update directly from the Website.
    When you turn the volume up and down before you watch a youtube video, do you get the sound?
    I take it that it's only in the .mov files where the sound malfunctions?
