The sound in my laptop has annoying intermitent growling sounds?
THE SOUND SYSTEM IN MY LAP TOP HAS ANNOYING INTERMITENT GROWLING SOUNDS??
I am also getting a brief growling noise (or buzz) EVERY TWO MINUTES OR SO DURING MUSIC PLAYBACK. Does this mean the soundcard is defective?

The Battery in my laptop has been replaced twice and this is the third time the battery has swollen up.
Since the first time it was swollen I have asked the reason but Apple has not come up with a reason and just replaced it.
Second time also the service centre replaced the battery but were unable to give me a reason.
I had asked them to replace the laptop as this has been happening repeatedly and seems to be something with the laptop
otherwise why should every battery they put swell ?
This is the third time this has happened. And now they refuse to replace the battery or the laptop also.
What is the solution?Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store and press the problem. Elevate to store manager if necessary. Maybe the charging circuits are defective resulting in overcharging which is causing the battery problem.

I put all my cd's on my ipod on my old laptop. now i did the update on itunes on my new laptop and all music has gone from the ipod.
Is there anyway of getting it back?All you can get back is your iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
You will have to rerip the CDs unless you can find a copy.
When you restore or update an iPod, if synced media is not in the iTunes library it will not be on the iPod after the restore/update since the backup that iTunes makes does not included synced media like apps and music. -
I have a macbook pro in which i use for church recordings. it has a built in mic so like one hole for headphones and mic. how do i get it to only pick up the sound from the external mic that is coming into the mixer to the laptop. it seems to pick up everything, like for example any little movement i make or even just asking the next person a question will get picked up by the internal mic. is there a way i can mute the internal mic so it can only pick the external mic and not every movement im making like chewing etc

The sound on my computer has stopped working. I have searched through countles google entries to try and figure out the problem but I can't find anything remotely useful. I never spilled any liquid or anything on my computer. I was just searching through youtube and when I clicked a video there was no sound. Then I checked iTunes and tried to play some music, still no sound. I played around with the preferences and volume control, still no sound. If you have any advice please help. Going to the apple store is so expensive and I don't have the time or money.
Did you try resetting PRAM and SMC?
Is there any red light visible in the headphone port? -
About two weeks after installing new software such as BullGuard Security, Claro Read Plus, Inspiration, Audio Notetaker 2.5 and Dragon Naturally Speaking the sound became very distorted on my HP Pavilion G6 laptop. What can I do to fix this?

I have a 2010 MacBook Pro i7, 15" notebook. Without adjustments by myself, I find the sound and brightness seem to regress to the lower levels. Has anyone experienced this and what have you done to fix it?
Well, well, well... Nothing has changed. Somehow or another Adobe has managed to truly take control of Windows 7.
I updated Bridge or more correctly... The Cloud did and every files extension in Bridge had 'none' as the application. Lovely stuff. Now All I want to know is why did Adobe take control of Windows file manager and cause this much grief?
I almost never use the clunky and often impossible to manage Bridge. Simple freeware... Irfanview is way more elegant than Bridge and 10 times more useful IMO.
Well thanks for the heads up Curt. I never considered the full implication of giving Adobe the freedom to add and remove whatever they wanted to... Forget the don't fix what isnt broken thing... Just pour everything we've got in the cloud onto all the members PCs, eh? Hard drives are cheap and hey, what are forums for when things go wrong if it isn't to keep Adobe informed of bugs they can silently fix and pour 'em back into the cloud as fixes.
Ha,ha you just gotta love progress eh?
This is really going to take on. I can see it now... For every mess up of a PC -- "THE CLOUD DID IT"!!! -
Why is the sound quality on my laptop so bad?
Hello. I have an HP Envy 17t-j100 with windows 8.1. I have noticed that anything I play on my laptop is lower quality to anything I play on any other device. I used the same headphones. My guess is it has something to do with the beats audio. If i uncheck the beats audio thing, it just makes it sound even worse. Is there a way to remove the beats or whatever is making sounds sound bad? Is beats even the problem? What can I do? Thank you.
Hi @Gobbling_Monkey ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have looked into your issue with the sound not working correctly from your HP ENVY 17j100 Notebook. The first thing to try is this
1. Right click the Speaker icon in the bottom right corner by your time.
2. Click Playback Devices.
3. Click Speakers.
4. Click properties.
5. Click the advanced tab on the Properties window.
6. Change the Default Format drop-down to the highest quality.
7. Apply the properties.
8. Click OK to close the properties window. Restart your Notebook.
If this does not help try HP support document No Sound from Speakers. It has a number of good troubleshooting steps including using the built-in Windows troubleshooter.
Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system that might need updating. If an update is needed this could cause sound issues.
The Troubleshooting tool in Windows 8 can automatically fix common problems with your computer, such as audio recording. Here is a link to this.
If you still want to disable or uninstall the Beats follow these instructions. To enable or disable Beats Audio, press the fn key in combination with the b key. The Jack does have influence on the Beats Audio which might need to be turned off.
Here is a document on how to uninstall software. The bottom link shows you how to disable software.
Hope this is what you need.
Thanks.

The sound is not working properly on my laptop
The past 2 days I've been having problems with the sound on my laptop which is an Hp Pavilion 15 Notebook PC. When I restart it, it works fine but if I pause something im watching and come back to it the sound is no longer working. I also notice that when this happens if I hit the mute button it doesn't light up orange but it does show the mute icon. I'm not that good with computers...I tried troubleshooting it, it says theres nothing wrong. Im confused, please help!
Try this:
In the device manager locate the IDT High Definition Audio CODEC under sound, game and video controller.
Right click and select uninstall.
Restart your computer and open up the device manager again.
In the same spot under sound, game and video controller where the IDT CODEC used to be listed there will be something else listed.
Right click on that and select "scan for hardware changes" this will reinstall the IDT CODEC but I believe it is the updated driver which is actually compatible.
It has been working for me so far, but I will keep you updated if it fails again. For now I would try that!! good luck -
The sound on my HP Pavillion DV6-6B57SA has stopped working
The sound was working fine on my laptop up until a couple of weeks ago. It would work through headphones but any time I unplugged the headphones, the sound would not work.
Just recently the laptop start-up sound is audible but any other sound such as music or videos cannot be heard.
Since yesterday, the sound has stopped working completely; through the headphones or otherwise.
I don't know what to do...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/sp58001-58500/sp58226.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, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete. Then 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.

How can I increase the sound on my HP laptop
I have my volume set at the highest setting on my HP Pavilion g series laptop but the sound should be louder.....is there a way I can increase it?
This question was solved.
View Solution.Hi,
One thing can help is the following. Right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select 'Playback Devices'. Left click the default device once to highlight it ( it's usually 'speakers & headphones' ) then click the Properties button. Click the Enhancements tab and put a tick in the box next to 'Loudness Equalization'. Click Apply to save the change and then click OK in all remaining windows and see if this has helped at all.

The sound is distorted on my laptop?
The sound is distorted on my laptop, this has been since I have transferred photos and videos to it. I have run a sound and audio check but nothing was found.
Please check if the iRST (Intel Rapid Storage Technology Driver) needs to be undated as described here.
+The sound / video playback of a media file is stuttering+
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB12033I0001R01.htm
The iRST could stress the CPU and could cause the same issue. -
Since I used an external speaker, on monday for my MacBookPro, my speaker on the laptop has been disabled. The speaker icon on the top tool bar is grey and can not be accessed.
Hello there, chriswetherby.
The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great steps for troubleshooting the issue you're describing:
Troubleshooting issues with no audio from built-in speakers on Macs
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1574
Check your Sound System Preferences pane
If you are still having issues after you have confirmed the proper version of Mac OS X is installed, make sure the computer is set to play sound from the right source.
Remove any external audio devices and cables from the USB, FireWire, or 3.5 mm audio ports.
Open System Preferences from the Apple () menu, the Dock, or from the Applications folder on your hard drive.
Open the Sound pane and the Output tab, then select Internal Speakers as in this image:
If Internal Speakers is not an option proceed to step 4. For Mac Pro computers, proceed to step 5.
If Internal Speakers is present but not selected, select it and test again.
If the Output volume slider is low or the Mute box is selected, raise the volume slider or deselect the Mute box and test again.
If the issue continues through these steps and Internal Speakers remains the selected option proceed to step 5.
If the Internal Speakers option does not appear in the Output tab and your computer is not a Mac Pro, check that Digital Out is present as in the image below:
Confirm again that all external audio devices and cables have been removed.
Check to see if a red light is lit in the line-out port. If so, your Apple computer may need service.
If you do not see a red light, proceed to step 5.
If the issues persist, contact Apple support for further troubleshooting assistance.
Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Pedro.
