Sound plays out of my speakers AND my earphones at the same time

I'm not sure how long this has been going on for but I just found out that when I plug my earphones in that the sound still plays out loud from my laptop (supposed to only come out of earphones).
How do I fix this?
This laptop is only months old and I can't seem to avoid running into problems with it's audio. Thanks a lot beatsaudio HP. I'm a student so it's very important when in a library that I'm not producing music or sound for everyone. Just for my ears only please.

Hi @jlarbs
I understand that you are having a problem with sound playing through the speakers even when earphones are plugged in. I am happy to help.
A fix to try is, to go into the Control panel
then Hardware and Sound
then click on Sound and select the Recording tab
Select your microphone/headset as the default device, and press OK.
Also you can look at this page from answers.microsoft.com, as if offers a few more suggestions.

Using internal Speakers and optical Output at the same time ?

Is this a software or hardware limitation ?

Any Ideas ?
Thanks ? best regards

Any ideas how to play iPad music via tv and use ipad at the same time?

I am using ArkMC app to play music from my iPad on my sony bravia tv. But when I come out of the app to say use safari, the music stops streaming. I really want to play music and use my iPad together. Any ideas?.

the app have to support background play or when one move on it will stop playing
if you use an appletv you can use airplay but it will not just play the music it will play any sound your ipad would otherwise play so if you start the music and expect to be able to play a game on the ipad while the music play you will be disappointed

HT5517 why cant I listen on my apple tv speakers and airplay device at the same time?

It there any way of listening to my music on both devices or more?

Quite simply, that's not the way it works.

Dual Audio Outs? / HDMI and RCA Analog at the same time?

I am trying to figure out if the Apple TV supports dual audio output. My Onkyo receiver supports dual-room/dual-source audio (powered and line-level stereo audio output for 2nd room). The problem is it can only accept an analog source for the second room.
I know that HDMI takes precedence over component video connections if both are connected.
Will the ATV send audio signal out of the HDMI and RCA Analog jacks at the same time so I can enjoy streaming music is two rooms simultaneously?

I like to be a helpful soul, so I decided to pull the owner's manual from Onkyo and take a look at the receiver, without ever thinking about the model number, and come to find out, I have my Apple TV hooked into an Onkyo TX-SR606.
I appreciate that!
Iowabeerguy wrote:
Problem is, I have the HDMI into the Onkyo and the analog outs going to to another stereo receiver for the outdoor speakers. Both work at the same time, which means that the Apple TV will output both digital and analog at the same time.
Good to know.
Iowabeerguy wrote:
Now, let's look at the receiver - if you have the HDMI plugged into the - say DVD input, and it's playing through the main system, and you plug the analog outputs into the DVD analog in on the receiver, the Zone 2 out will automatically look at the HDMI input, and not put out anything to the Zone 2 outs, because it won't pass digital to the Zone 2 outs.
Oh yeah, that makes sense!
Iowabeerguy wrote:
I can't try it tonight, but I think if you plug the analog outputs from the Apple TV to an input that isn't assigned to an HDMI in, (like CD) and then set the Zone 2 amp to play that source, it should work.
I've set aside some "tinkering" time this weekend to try that. I'll let you know if it works; I think it will. Thanks again!

HT4437 can i play songs from my ipad to my airport express and Ihome speaker at the same time?

can i play songs from the ipad to both the airport express and ihome speaker at the same time?

Let's double-check your AX's settings...
To set up AirTunes on the AirPort Express Base Station (AX), using the AirPort Admin Utility, connect your computer directly (using an Ethernet cable) to the Ethernet port of the AX, and then, try these settings:
AirPort tab
- Base Station Name: <whatever you wish or use the default>
- Wireless Mode: Join an Existing Wireless Network (Wireless Client)
- Wireless Network: <select your Belkin wireless network>
Music tab
- Enable AirTunes on this base station (checked)
- Enable AirTunes over the Ethernet port (optional)
- iTunes Speaker Name: <whatever you wish>
- iTunes Speaker Password (optional)
In iTunes:
iTunes > Preferences... > Advanced > General
- Look for remote speakers connected with AirTunes (checked)

Play Music and Watch Pictures at the same time?

Can you play music and view pictures at the same time using AppleTV?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Yes indeed, there are various options for slideshows, including the background music for the slideshow.

It is possible synchronize sound and frame exactly at the same time?

I need to change a frame in relation to a sound, and I need to do this more exactly possible.
I try something like this:
on changeFrame
if sound(1).mostRecentCuePoint = 1 then
    go to frame "1"
end if
if sound(1).mostRecentCuePoint = 2 then
    go to frame "2"
end if
..... and so on
I try also this:
on changeFrame
    if member("Tempo1").cuePointTimes[2] then
     go to frame "2"
   end if
With this method sometime the sincronization between soud and frame is not exact.
Is there a way to synchronize sound and frame exactly at the same time?
Thank you.

Using iPad 2 - if i use the slide switch to lock rotation, i cannot unlock rotation, unless i use it to mute sounds. i can't therefore have unmuted sounds and unlocked rotation at the same time??

Uh .... Yes you can. You just have to understand how the whole thing works.
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.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Getting Logic master to send to both 1-2 and 3-4 at the same time

I have an native Instruments Audio Kontrol 1 'sound card' that I'm running 2 different sets of M-Audio monitors off of. My question i, can I run the master output to both 1-2 and 3-4 at the same time so I can easily check mixes on both sets of speakers without changing every single tracks output?
Also, is this possible to do in iTunes also? I can find nothing in Logic (or anywhere) that will allow this and I initially thought my device was broken until I simply choose 3-4instead of 1-2.
thanks so much!

In Logic you could just setup additional sends of your Audio tracks using the send knobs and send the signal to a Bus. Set the outputs of that Bus to 3-4 and you'll have your signal played through 1-2 as well as 3-4.
Also, if any of the audio tracks used sends (reverb on a bus..etc) those would also have to be sent to the same bus as the audio tracks.
panleft-
How about routing all the outputs that are currently on Output 1-2 to a bus first then:
Option 1: Switching that bus's output between outputs 1-2 and 3-4 (for A/B comparisons)
or
Option 2: Use the Send on that bus's output to another bus, route that second bus's output to 3-4 (so both busses are sending audio to both sets of speakers simultaneously).
As an alternative, the Mackie Big Knob is a great hardware solution for routing a signal to 3 sets of speakers, allowing you to switch among them with simple button presses.

Bash script: Rotate your wallpaper and SLiM theme at the same time

EDIT;
I've decided I should really thank Cerebral for his help with writing this script; this thank you should have been here from the get go.
After writing:
#!/usr/bin
echo "Hello World!"
I wrote a script to rotate my fluxbox background and SLiM theme at the same time, so I could have a contiuously changing background and still have a smooth transition from SLiM to fluxbox. (It just looks so much cooler when both have matching backgrounds). By the time you finish reading it, and configuring your box so it will work, you will probably have decided you could have writtin your own, better script to do the same thing. But, on the off chance anybody finds use for it, here it is:
(this should be obvious, but: don't run this script without at least reading the comments)
#!/bin/bash
#this is a script to rotate a number of backgrounds
#to be shared by the fluxbox desktop and SLiM login manager.
#it is the first meaningful script I've written. It may be
#freely distributed and used with the understanding that you are
#using it at your own risk.
#Before running this script you need to check that your SLiM
#themes are installed to the path /usr/share/slim/themes, which
#is the defulat path for installation in Arch. Here are some
#other things you need to set up:
#1. create (if you don't have it) the directory /usr/share/wallpapers
#2. create a wallpaper in /usr/share/wallpapers called 'dummy' by copying
#you current wallpaper to that filename
#3. set your window manager to display the wallpaper 'dummy', this works fine
#using a style overlay in fluxbox, I haven't tested it with any other window
#manager, but I don't see why this would cause a problem.
#4. create a directory /usr/share/slim/themes/current, you can copy one of
#your slim themes into that directory if you want. (this will prevent you
#from seeing some error messages the first time you run the script)
#5. define the names of the themes you want to rotate, in order for this
#script to work, you must name them "themeNUMBER", where NUMBER is replaced
#by an integer. Your themes must be numbered consecutively, start with 1
# that is:
#theme1 , theme2, theme3, etc. , theme305
#If you don't number consecutively, this script will not run properly. You
#must also define the total number of themes as "rotate_number"
#6. Check if the script runs, if it does, you should change /etc/slim.conf to
#use the theme "current"
#7. This theme will now rotate your SLiM theme and wallpaper in such a way as
#to make them match each other. Note that SLiM will not let you change themes
#"on the fly", (as of July 6, 2008), so changes will not be apparent unless you
#restart SLiM. I run the script before I run slim in my etc/rc.local local
#script, so each time I reboot I get different wallpaper / login background.

How do I make Organizer and Editor open at the same time?

I'm new to PSE 10 and want to know how to make Organizer and Editor open at the same time. I can get the Organizer up, but have to pick out a photo and click on Fix: Full Photo Edit to get Editor to open. Is that the only way to do it?
Thanks,
K

Create Desktop shortcuts for the Organizer and the Editor:
The Editor's executable is:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Photoshop Elements 10\PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe"
The Organizer's executable is:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Elements 10 Organizer\PhotoshopElementsOrganizer.exe"

My iPhone 4s will not sync a changed playlist from itunes unless i turn off music match. Shouldn't I be able to use a playlist and music match at the same time?

It's not entirely impossible actually as someone has pointed out to me that I can turn on Call Forwarding and that stops any incoming calls. I've just forwarded it to my google voice number and then turned on "do not disturb" in google voice and whenever I get a call it goes straight to my google voice voicemail and my phone does nothing. The only thing now is I still get text messages but I think the phone calls bugged me more because they would make my music turn off for much longer.
Even though this isn't a perfect solution it's something so far so maybe you shouldn't just come out and say there's NOTHING I can do because so far I've found part of a solution. If you don't have anyting productive to say then just don't reply and close the tab. Thanks.
At this point I'm wondering if anyone knows of any Jailbreak tweaks that can enable what I want. Unless of course it's agaisnt the rules of this forum to mention jailbreak stuff...

After the Apple logo appears, what happens then? Can you hear any sounds or if you tap on the screen, does it seem like apps can open or are you just seeing a black screen? You might have a hardware problem, but you can try restoring the software and see what happens.
