Unable to activate Volume Icon on DV7/ Win 7.1

DV7 on Win 7.1
All other system icons can be turned ON or OFF with exception of Volume. An attempt to Customize the Taskbar shows IDT PC AUDIO (to control Beats Audio) whose Icon can be added to the taskbar

Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read about  your volume not working correctly on your HP Pavilion dv7 Notebook.  Here is a link to download HP Quick launch software. This should fix the volume button.
If this does not fix this issue uninstall your sound driver and download this driver from HP.
Hope this helps.
Thanks.

  • Satelllite L830-10U: WIn 7 Volume icon missing in taskbar + unable to show

    Hi
    I have a Satelllite L830 10U with Windows 7
    I can't see the volumen icon on the taskbar.
    I tried to turn it on, but the "show icon /notifications" option does not show any icon, just plain text
    and under the system icon tab (volumen, battery, net, ...) the volumen icon is in unselectable grey
    Any ideas??
    Are Toshiba's and Windows updates interferring somehow??
    Thanks

    Its not notebook problem but your system is muddled up.
    Check this YouTube video which shows you how to enable this sound icon again:

  • Getting "Unable to create VOLUMES/" error when exporting photos

    I am trying to export a number of photos from iPhoto '08 to a USB stick that has been freshly formated with FAT 32. When iPhoto reaches a photo that has a vertical orientation the export stops and throws this error:
    "Unable to create VOLUMES/JUMP DRIVE/filename"
    These photos were taken with a Canon Powershot SD700IS. The camera has the ability to sense orientation when the picture is taken. It will automatically rotate pictures that were taken while holding the camera on its side. If the picture was taken with a horizontal (normal) orientation the export is successful.
    I was able to work around this by opening the offending files in Preview and saving them from there. Obviously this is a time consuming extra step that shouldn't be necessary.
    If anyone has any ideas I would greatly appreciate them!
    Thanks!

    Then you have a managed library.
    Go to your Pictures Folder. There you'll see the icon for your iPhoto Library. Right Click on that icon and select 'Show Package Contents' from the resulting menu. A Finder window will open and you'll see your Library internals. Have a look for the /Originals Folder. Inside it will be the folders for your Events. These should include the full sized photos.
    If they do, then
    Try these in order - from best option on down...
    1. Do you have an up-to-date back up? If so, try copy the library6.iphoto file from the back up to the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) allowing it to overwrite the damaged file.
    2. Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums back.
    3. If neither of these work then you'll need to create and populate a new library.
    To create and populate a new library:
    Note this will give you a working library with the same Events and pictures as before, however, you will lose your albums, keywords, modified versions, books, calendars etc.
    In the iPhoto Preferences -> Events Uncheck the box at 'Imported Items from the Finder'
    Move the iPhoto Library to the desktop
    Launch iPhoto. It will ask if you wish to create a new Library. Say Yes.
    Go into the iPhoto Library (Right Click -> Show Package Contents) on your desktop and find the Originals folder. From the Originals folder drag the individual Event Folders to the iPhoto Window and it will recreate them in the new library.
    When you're sure all is well you can delete the iPhoto Library on your desktop.
    In the future, in addition to your usual back up routine, you might like to make a copy of the library6.iPhoto file whenever you have made changes to the library as protection against database corruption.

  • I have an iPad 2 and I am unable to activate my face time account. Despite having the correct ID and password. Any suggestions?

    I have an iPad 2 and I am unable to activate my face time account. Despite having the correct ID and password. Any suggestions?

    Clear Safari, close Safari and reboot the iPad. Then try again.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data.
    Tap the home button once. Then tap the home button twice and the recents tray will appear at the bottom of the screen. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the Safari icon. Tap the home button twice.
    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.

  • Unable to activate Genius

    I am unable to activate Genius since upgrading to Windows 7. Prior with Vista and iTunes 9 Genius worked fine. Upgrade to Win7 and I cannot activate Genius.
    It goes through step 1 fine then goes into step 2. It pops up an error message after about a minute that says "We could not complete your iTunes store request. The network connection timed out. Make sure your network connections are correct and your network connection is active, then try again".
    Well, I have been trying again later for about a month all with the same error.

    I finally managed to fix this problem by removing groups of songs from my library until Genius successfully started. I started removing artists beginning with A and by the time I got down to D Genius started to work. This made me think that it was related to a specific song. However, I gradually added all of the tracks back in to my library and Genius continued to update OK!! I now have all of the same songs in the library and Genius is working fine. I have over 12000 songs in my library so it may be a bug related to the number of tracks. The downside to removing the tracks (but keeping the files) is that you lose the playcount and you have to add them to your playlists again.
    Hope this helps.

  • SharePoint Foundation Sandboxed Code Service - Unable to activate worker process proxy object within the worker process

    Issue:
    On a vanilla installation, the sandboxed code service (e.g. SPUCHostService.exe) is started; however, SPUCWorkerProcessProxy.exe and subsequently SPUCWorkerProcess.exe fails to start.
    Resolution/Workarounds attempted:
    Attempted 2 different Load balancing settings – local and remote (i.e. affinity)
    Ensured local computer policy on server for ‘RPC Endpoint Mapper Client Authentication’ and ‘Restrictions for Unauthenticated RPC clients’ is disabled.
    Ensured following key in registry is set properly - HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Policies\Microsoft\Windows NT\RPC
    Attempted to bypass SharePoint’s check for certificate revocations at crl.microsoft.com
    Ensured the service account is added to the respective groups (e.g. Performance Log Users, Performance Monitor Users, IIS_IUSRS, WSS_ADMIN_WPG, WSS_WPG)
    Increased limit of ‘AbnormalProcessTerminationCount’ of SPUserCodeService via Powershell
    We have tried all possible workarounds from the following MSDN reference:

    Any other insights on how I can troubleshoot the issue described?
    Thanks in advance!

    Hi ,
    For resolving your issue , you can do as the followings:
    1. Logged into the Web Server with the Timer Service Account.
    2. Ran the powershell command to check the SID of the account running the spucworkerprocessproxy.exe:  
    $(Get-SPManagedAccount -Identity "THE SERVICE ACCOUNT").Sid.Value
    3. Checked the registry :
    HKEY_USERS\[SID OF THE SERVICE ACCOUNT]\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\WinTrust\Trust Providers\Software Publishing\State
    4. Changed the value 0x00023c00 to 0x00023e00

  • I upgrade my iPhone 3gs from 4.1 to 6.1 but i am unable to activate my phone now

    I upgrade my apple iPhone 3GS IOS from 4.1 to 6.1.4 but now i m unable to activate this phone, and there is no sim card is accepting by this phone.
    please help me to solve this issue as soon as possible

    Sounds like your iPhone was unofficially unlocked by hacking it. You need to call AppleCare, tell them you only want to know which cell carrier your iPhone is locked to and give them the model and serial number. Then contact that cell carrier and see what their official unlock policy is and if you qualify.

  • Unable to activate software after upgrading to Windows 8

    This post contains one question.
    I am unable to activate my Creative Cloud products after upgrading to Windows 8. I have used the Chat service on three separate occasions, and after the employee asks me for my e-mail and order number, determines that they are unable to provide me the instructions necessary to license or activate the software. So I must be forwarded to a special team to help me resolve this problem. During the transfer, I get cut off -- each time.
    On Windows 7, I deactivated my Creative Cloud membership through Photoshop.
    I upgraded to Windows 8, installing all security updates and restarting the system several times.
    Now that all updates are installed, I want to re-activate my Adobe products -- but am unable to find the commands to do so.
    I have logged in to Adobe Application manager, using the e-mail address and password that Adobe has in the system for my account.
    How do I activate my Adobe products?

    Does the solution provided by customer 'kipedias' in this post http://forums.adobe.com/message/4903206#4923341 resolve the issue?

    Hi Raghavendar,
    Generally, when you install Lync 2013 in the computer with Office 2010, a Lync Meeting Add-in will be installed and enabled in Outlook 2010. Please follow these steps to check it:
    1. In Outlook, click the File tab, click Options, and then click
    Add-Ins.
    2. Please take one of the following actions:
    If the add-in is in the Inactive Application Add-ins list, follow these steps:
    a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
    COM Add-ins, and then click Go.
    b. Click to select the check box next to the add-in, and then click OK.
    The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
    Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should be available when you create a new calendar item.
    If the add-in is in the Disabled Application add-ins list, follow these steps:
    a. In the Manage drop-down list at the bottom of the dialog box, click
    Disabled Items, and then click Go.
    b. Select the add-in, and then click Enable.
    c. Restart Outlook, and then verify that the add-in is displayed in the
    Add-ins dialog box.
    The New Online Meeting button should now be available in
    Calendar View, and the Online Meeting button should now be available when you create a new calendar item.
    3. In Event Viewer, view the Application log to see whether an error was logged for Outlook, for Lync 2013, the Lync Meeting Add-in for Microsoft Office 2013.
    Thanks,
