Use speakers and headphones at the same time

Hi!
Is it possible to use both exits to play different songs? I mean, use speakers and headphones like different channels, I'd like to use them to mix music and it would be very useful if I could listen a song by headphones while the other one is playing.
Laptop has two headphones exits, can I use them as different channels as well??
thanks!

Nope...If you really want to do that, you need to use a external device like Audio2DJ....

Using speakers and headphones at the same time

With an iMac can I use Internal Speakers While Headphones Plugged In?

Not as far as I know.

Sound playing through speakers and Headphones at the same time...

Hi everyone, I have a Toshiba Satellite A215 S5849. It is only about 6 months old. Now whenever I plug my headphones into the headphone jack, sound keeps playing through the speakers and in the headphones at the same time. Also the speakers do always have a crackling sound like they are blown. I have been trying to fix it for awhile now but no luck. Any help would be appreciated.

Hello again, sorry that the driver did NOT resolve the issue. What I suggest we try is the Support Assistant. This will do a scan on your entire computer and if the computer does have a issue it will find it and show you how to resolve the issue.

Sound coming from both speakers and headphones at the same time in probook 4440s

I have a Probook 4440s with windows 8 pro(64 bit) with IDT high definition codec installed. Yesterday when i was playing some songs i noticed that the sound was coming from both headphones and speakers even when my headphones are plugeed in and my lappy was having no such problems a few hours earliers while i was watching a movie. Please help..

It may be because you have both the internal speakers and headphones enabled at the sametime on your laptop. This might just happen automatically when you plug your headphones in. You need to manage your audio devices on your laptop.
Go to Control Panel> Hardware and Sounds> Manage Audio Devices> Playback Tab (which should already be selected)
In the playback tab there should be a list of all the audio devices you are using on your computer. Right click on the one you don't want to use and click disable. This should stop the sound coming from that audio device.
Remember: You will need to enable that audio device if you want to listen to sound through it again. Your internal speakers won't work once you enable them again. This might also be the case with your headphones. You may also have to do this every time your plug in a device or once you restart your computer.
Another note: Sometimes disabled devices will not show up on the audio device list so once you disable a device it will dissappear. This is an easy fix too. Just right click on an audio device and make sure show disabled devices and show disconnected devices is checked.
I hope this helps.
(I was using a computer with Windows XP to explain the instructions but it should be similar with your Windows Operating System. You may however have to play around a little on your computer because it may be slightly different)

E93z All in One I want Audio playback through speakers and headphones at the same time

Hi there,
As the subject line reads I am hoping to enable playback through both the headphone and internal speakers on the E93z All in One unit I have.
Is there is currently a way to do this with the Lenovo HD Audio software for the Realtek system? It detects the headphones and does the typical shut off of the internal speakers however no option to enable playback through both seems to exist.
Running Windows 7 Pro 32 bit.
I cannot enable stereo mix (by right clicking in the playback area of the sound settings in Windows) to try and come up with a work around.
I have tried re-installing the drivers and not luck with more options to do this.
I have tried un-installing the Lenovo HD audio software and still no luck using the vanilla Windows 7 software.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Well basically I want to hook in some external speakers via the headphones jack and the more speakers the better, I just figure if there's a way to have 4 speakers instead of just two it'd be cool, why let the internal speakers go to waste?
Do you know if plugging in headphones physically cuts off the internal speakers or if it's a software/driver thing?
Thanks to all who've replied
I'm pretty sure it's all in the OS, since the level control is right at the top. You can actually customize sound profiles individually for headphones or the built-in speaker, or any other sound devices. You can also use Bluetooth headphones (or a headset) or USB output devices. As far as I know, only one can be selected (in System Preferences) even if multiple ones are plugged in.

Sound from both Speakers and headphones at the same time

I have a Pavilion Sleekbook 15-b003ee
recently i have a very annoying problem anytime i plug in a headphone on the sound comes from both the laptop speakers and the headphones
I tried the following
1- Changed the driver tried both versions on the HP support
2- changed the headphones tried 3 of them and the same problem
3- tried the Microsoft HD Audio driver (no sound could comeout from the headphones)
4- tried disabling the communication device from the control panel while the speakers is on and vise versa
5- A system restore
still the same problem and i think it maybe an malfunction from the hardware or the headphones jack port on the laptop but how does the sound still come out from the headphones ?
I thought of buying a USB headphones but the laptop is no more than 3 months old so i think i still on warranty and such if it is a hardware problem , I am currently in Egypt bought the laptop from Egypt also

Hello RamiAbbas,
Take a look at this document, which provides troubleshooting steps that I hope, help resolve your issue. You are also in warranty, and are welcome to call and speak to an HP rep to help as well.
Since you are in Greece, look here for the number you need to call for tech support.
Please let me know if this helps.
Good luck!

Pavilion dv6 with Windows 7 - some softs use laptop speakers some headphones (at the same time)

To be more specific, I usually use my headphones with my laptop. The main problem is that when I use winamp and skype at the same time there's a weird thing happening:
If I get a skype sound, the sound switches from the headphones to the laptop speakers. After the skype sound is over it automatically returns tot the headphones. I'm using Windows 7, and I looked at Volume Control Options and i have 3 devices: SPDIF, Independent Dual Headphones and Speakers and Dual Headphones and I can not choose which one to use (for all softwares).
This is annoying (specially at night when I don't want to make any noise), if I get a skype call my speakers go wild and after the bip-sound from the call it all switches back to the headphones.
Can you help me set up this sound issue ?

Solution has been found. Disable "Communications Heaphones" from Sound in the Control Panel.

OK great info!
I found 2 possible ethernet to USB adapters:
By "Plugable": USB 2.0 to ethernet LAN wired network adapter - seems this will work, but I'll contact Plugable.
2. Apple USB Ethernet Adapter
Easily connect your MacBook Air computer to an Ethernet network with the Apple USB Ethernet Adapter. Small and light, it connects to the USB 2.0 port of your MacBook Air and provides an RJ-45 connector that supports 10/100BASE-T performance. BUT NOT SURE IF THIS WILL WORK ON ANYTHING BUT a MacBook Air…
One person commented:
This little gem used to be the device of choice for adding a second Ethernet interface to a Mac Mini Server and I'd been using one that way for about a year. After doing a software update to 10.6.6 it stopped working. Forewarned is forearmed – it appears that Apple is finally enforcing the MacBook Air system requirement.
Thanks for any additional comments.

I cannot use data and voice at the same time.

I cannot use data and voice at the same time.
I am on Wifi (connected) and at the same time I am on a voice call. when I switch to my RSS feed reader it does not sync it comes out with a message cannot connect to internet, I thought it is a problem with the feed reader application, IE 10 behaves the same I cannot browse when I am on a voice call.
This is a very basic issue, am I missing something? Please help.
My Model is lumia 820 with the latest portico update.

I am aware that packet data via EDGE and voice cannot happen at the same time, surprisingly when I am on voice call I cannot connect to internet via Wifi too

Can we use exceptions and conditions at the same time?

can we use exceptions and conditions at the same time? Are there any dependencies between exceptions an conditions?

Exceptions are used when there are some mistakes , or exceeds the supposed values, we can highligt that in different colours for enabling the validator to notice easily. In this we are giving conditions for considering the value as exceptions. suppose, if the values is out of the range -1 to +1 then exception.
But conditions can be considered as the restrictions given in measure level also. So please elaborate what you meant by conditions

My SB Audigy 2 card can't use headset and musicamplifier at the same time

Hi, i just bought a SB Audigy 2 [D400] and i have downloaded drivers and programs. I run Windows XP SP2.
The soundcard works fine but it is very very annoying that i physically have to change the jack in the green=line out jack from headset to musicamplifier when i want to use my musicamplifier and change back the jack in the green=line out from musicamplifier to headset when i just want to use the headset/headphones .
In the shop they told my that i can connect both amplifier and headset at the same time and then with creative software control whether there is sound in the headset or in the amplifier. But i can't simple get it work.
I tried to use the green to the amplifier and the headset/speakers in the black (line out 2) and then with creative speaker settings softeware choose headphones but still the ampliefier receive the sound and no sound in the headphones. Why? In fact no matter what configuration i try the headphones doesn't work.
But if i change the jacks so headset is in the green line out then only headset is working and the amplifier doesn't work no matter i put it in sort=line out 2 jack or orange=line out 3 jack.
Can somebody here tell me if it is possible or not to connect both headset and external amplifier and control by software which to play? and how?
please help, thx.
Michael

If you can have an ASIO compatible music playing system, then it might be possible to have system like you wish when using Creative Audigy 2 card. Since ASIO bypasses Windows Audio System, you can use both 'drivers' (ASIO - WDM/MME/DS) side by side.
Say you want to play a game (using headset /w mic) and someone other like to listen music at the same time. With ASIO capable system you can output your music for example to "center L/R (stereo) channels" and same time output sounds from other source (using MME/DS/WDM drivers) to normal output channel (Front L/R). Only thing is, you need to set your speakersystem to 4 or 6 (depending which other channel you're using) (and for better 'balance' to adjust "angle" on THX console. You get the THX console by installing Audigy 2 Zs software).
Try for example http://img332.imageshack.us/img332/463/djs9mo.jpg[/img] width="406" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" >
Another option:
Say you want to play music through external amplifier and play game online with your headset + microphone (eg. others but you listen the music, you play games)
--> try free http://img332.imageshack.us/img332/4589/tbp7rz.jpg[/img] width="406" alt="Image Hosted by ImageShack.us" >
If you use ASIO on BeatPort Player you can select L/R individually from the list(s). Same rules as described earlier.
= You can play from 2 different sources simultaoneusly (ASIO + WDM/MME/DS) to two different outputs without disturbance. The other (WDM/MME/DS) source is set 'automatically' output to (Audigy) "green" port, and the other (ASIO) to "black" or "orange" port (as set).

Can WRT54G use WPA and WEP at the same time?

I used to have a smc 802.11b wireless router and a dlink 802.11b wireless print server.
In order to have WPA and a firewall, I replaced the wireless router with a linksys WRT54G.
Then I realize the dlink print server, even though it has the "g" keyword in the model name, does not do WPA (DP-G321).
Do I have to buy a 802.11g wireless print server? Or is there another solution?
I don't supposed the linksys router can do both WPA and WEP at the same time?
Connecting the print server to the router with a cable is not feasible. They are on different floors.

both of your devices are has a wireless b technology settings, just set a wep encryption on your network rather than wpa because some wireless b devices don;t work with wpa. with regards to your query if wep and wpa can be used at the same time, the answer is no.

I have an iPad 2 (wifi 3G). Is it correct to use wifi and 3G at the same time ? Or one at time depending on connectivity? Thanks.

I have an iPad 2 (Wifi + 3G). Is it correct to use the Wifi and 3G at the same time, or one at a time, depending on connectivity? Thanks in advance.

Your iPad will use wifi first if available. If wifi is not available, it will use 3G.

Using LIKE and IN at the same time

Is it possible to use both LIKE and IN at the same time such as:
select first_name from emp where user_id LIKE IN('1%','2%')
Thanks in advance
--Joshua

Or consider the IN - parameters as a string. Then you can do the following:
SQL> SELECT ename
FROM emp
WHERE EXISTS (
          SELECT NULL
            FROM (SELECT RTRIM (SUBSTR (nums,
                                        INSTR (nums, ',', 1, iter.pos) + 1,
                                          INSTR (nums, ',', 1, iter.pos + 1)
                                        - INSTR (nums, ',', 1, iter.pos)
                               ) nums
                    FROM (SELECT ',' || 'SCO,BLA,CLA' || ',' nums
                            FROM DUAL) csv,
                         (SELECT ROWNUM pos
                            FROM all_objects
                           WHERE ROWNUM < 50) iter
                   WHERE iter.pos <=
                              ( ( LENGTH (csv.nums)
                                  - LENGTH (REPLACE (csv.nums, ','))
                               / LENGTH (',')

Problem with audio of my notebook. Audio works through pc speakers and earphones at the same time

Hi all,
thanks in advance for your advices.
I have a problem with my notebook (HP pavilion g6 2305 sl).
The problem is that when I connect my earphones the audio of my pc don't stop, hence I can hear (music, film, ...) both by earphones and speakers at the same time.
I tried to install again the latest driver audio, but nothing was changed.
I tried to use another pair of earphones, but nothing.
I have noted that if I connect the Jack at my pc, but not until the end, the audio stops from the speakers and goes through the earphones, but only if the jack is not completly inserted in the notebook.
I read a lot of forum on the web but I'm not able to find a solution for my problem.
(ps. the problem comes out suddenly, without any signal. I don't have installed any update or new software before the problem's start)

Right click on speaker icon, lower right screen.
Choose playback devices.
Select "speakers and headphones" as your default.
Disable "communications headphones".

Use speakers and headphones at the same time
