Why is the sound on my laptop not lining up with the video?

for the past week or so every video I play, whether it's on Amazaon, Hulu, or Youtube, the audio is ahead of the video. There's about a quarter second delay between them which makes it very difficult to watch.

 Hi,
Try the following.
First, download the Flash uninstall utility on the link below and save it to your Desktop.
Flash Player Uninstaller.
When the download has completed, close all browser windows and run the uninstaller.  After this has completed, restart the notebook.
Next, ( unless you already have it ), download and install Firefox and then using Firefox, download and install the latest version of Adobe Flash.  Note: You may want to deselect the option to include McAfee Security Scan Plus before downloading.
Close all browser windows before running the Flash installer.
Launch Firefox and see if the videos play Ok in this browser - if they do, close Firefox, open Internet Explorer and click on the same Adobe Flash link above to get a prompt to install the ActiveX component.  When done, restart Internet Explorer.
Regards,
DP-K

  • The cursor on my iMac freezes, and I cannot do anything unless I unplug the computer. It is NOT a problem with the mouse or the keyboard ... it is internal. How do I fix this??

    The cursor on my iMac (Panther 10.3.9) freezes to where I cannot do anything unless I unplug the computer. It is NOT a problem with the mouse or the keyboard. How do I solve this problem?

    The cost to get this repaired is more than what you could find another used imac for.
    I would suggest you get some details before you rush to make a diagnosis. You have absolutely no information to base this on. I see you're hitting up on numerous threads all over the place. Quality, meaning several good posts with reliable advice, is much more worthwhile than quantity.

  • What do I do if I think I damaged the sound on my laptop by playing music in the shower?

    So I recently read a question on "Macbook Pro" questions of someone asking if it's ok to play music on your laptop while in the shower. I know now that it's not ok. But before I knew this, I take about 30 min showers and I take my laptop to play music ever once in a while. Last night it shutdown a little after I got out of the shower and it wasn't because the battery percent was low. I went and plugged it in to charge it and it still didn't come back on for a good five minutes (which were probably about the worst 5 mins of my life because I was freaking out.) Once it turned back on I played a couple seconds of a couple different songs to make sure the sound was ok and it seemed fine for those few seconds. I tried to play music today and when I turned on a song, it played well for about the first 10 secs and then it started crackling. I think I broke it!! I feel horrible. Should I go to the apple store closest to me to get help?

  • Since Monday, Firefox times out when I search the web and I have not changed anything with the system.

    I was able to search the web as late as Sunday. But since Monday I am unable to. I have changed nothing. Bookmarks, email, Facebook work. Can search on laptop using the router, so internet connection is fine. The new google search on FB doesn't work either. Nor does searching with Chrome or IE. Have reset Firefox, restarted the computer, restored computer to previous Saturday. All I get when searching is This operation timed out.

    I think you must to a clean re-install, this means you remove Firefox program files and then reinstall Firefox. Please follow these steps:
    '''Note:''' You might want to print these steps or view them in another browser.
    #Download the latest Desktop version of Firefox from http://www.mozilla.org and save the setup file to your computer.
    #After the download finishes, close all Firefox windows (click Exit from the Firefox or File menu).
    #Delete the Firefox installation folder, which is located in one of these locations, by default:
    #*'''Windows:'''
    #**C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox
    #**C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox
    #*'''Mac:''' Delete Firefox from the Applications folder.
    #*'''Linux:''' If you installed Firefox with the distro-based package manager, you should use the same way to uninstall it - see [[Installing Firefox on Linux]]. If you downloaded and installed the binary package from the [http://www.mozilla.org/firefox#desktop Firefox download page], simply remove the folder ''firefox'' in your home directory.
    #Now, go ahead and reinstall Firefox:
    ##Double-click the downloaded installation file and go through the steps of the installation wizard.
    ##Once the wizard is finished, choose to directly open Firefox after clicking the Finish button.
    Please report back to see if this helped you!
    Thank you.

  • How do I stop the sound from some previous website from interfering with the audio from a new web site?

    Mozilla Firefox is my default browser. Whenever I try to listen to the audio on a video, parts of some old audio from a previous video interfere. I still maintain my Microsoft Explorer browser and I do not experience that problem with it. The only reason I use Firefox is that it supports some games on Facebook which apparently Microsoft Explorer does not.

    Thanks guys.  Both options worked.  Dowside to deleting audio (option I went with) appears to be that you lose the audio forever.  So if I ever wanted to bring the audio back I wouldn't be able to.
    You are partially correct in that the Audio is no longer on your Timeline. It is still in your Project Panel, and you can move it back to your Timeline if ever needed. The complete removal from the Timeline is why I work with the Audio Mixer in cases like this. Also, on could alter the Gain on a Clip by Clip basis.
    With using the audio mixer it appeared I had to mute each clip separately.  When I highlighted all the clips and selected mute for audio 1 it wouldn't mute all of the selected clips.
    The Audio Mixer works at the Track-level, and not at the Clip-level. That is why I use it so often - one click, or slider adjustment affects the entire chosen Track. If it did not work at a Track-level for you, something is wrong. Now, if one has Clips on different Tracks, then Muting of all of those would be required, or one would have address things on a Clip-level basis.
    Any way to use the audio mixer to mute the clips in mass?
    See above for how it should work, and also the exceptions - Audio on several Audio Tracks.
    Good luck, and remember that your Audio still resides in the Project Panel, should you ever need it again.

  • The CC desktop manager is not in sync with the installed apps

    The Adobe CC Desktop Manager only lists Muse and Acrobat as installed apps, failing to list DW, Photoshop, Illustrator InDesign and all sorts of others.

    I'm having the opposite problem.  All those listed in the screen shot as "Install" have been installed.
    Deleting OPM.db and downloading and installing CreativeCloudInstaller.dmg did not fix the issue.
    Do I really need to delete all of my installed apps and starting from scratch?

  • I am trying to get to a website I go to daily and get the message: "An error occured with the SQL server This is not a problem with the IP Board but rather your SQL server." I have no idea what this error is or what to do about it.

    I have tried clearing everything, rebooting, I just do not know what this actual error is. I was on the website, went back about 30 minutes later and that message. No other websites are bringing up this error.

    If FCP captures the footage then capture with FCP and import the files into Premiere. Just a few extra clicks.
    Or read this:

  • Apple id has not been used with the itunes store-please review your account information

    Hello,
    Good Day.
    I bought apple ipad 2 and need help.
    I registered online and after this i am getting the error.
    apple id has not been used with the itunes store-please review your account information
    Can any one help me in this issue.
    Thanks&Regards,
    Shankar.M

    This is information you you have created an apple id.
    To use this apple id for the itunes store, you have to agree to the terms and conditions and enter in the requested information before you can use the store.
    When you create an apple id it does not mean you gain access to all apples features, you would need to create a :-
    Itunes id
    Facetime id
    Game centre id
    imessage id
    icloud id
    You can use the same email address as each login. but until you agree to each terms and conditions you wont be able to access the services.
    This is usually done the first time you access each service and sign in with your apple id.
    As to iTunes you need a little extra as they will request to confirm details as to address, etc, with the payment information they can confirm you are actually in that country you are trying to purchase from.
    Once you have added the credit card details, you can go back in a set payment method to none and remove the credit card details once you have activated the itunes on your apple id.
    Basically this message you are getting is just ADDING the feature of iTunes store to your apple id, and confirms you have not got a iTunes id yet.

  • I can't ncrease the sound on my laptop, the button seems to be ether stuck or not connecting

     have tried to ncrease the sound on my laptop, when I bought the laptop  was able to inccrease and decrase the volume.  however, this last week I have been unable to do so, the button seems either to be stuck or it is not connecctong to the component inside to increase volume, as  watch tv and films on the laptop this nadequacy has become an issue, is there something  I can do myself?

    If both the Mac Pro and the G4 Power Mac are unable to access this particular website, the issue is most likely with the Actiontec, which is a combination modem & router, and not either Macs.
    Sometimes just a simple power recycle of your networking hardware will resolve the problem.
    I would recommend that you do the following as a minimum:
    Power-down the Actiontec and computers.
    Power-up the Actiontec; wait at least 10-15 minutes.
    Power-up your computer(s).
    Both Macs should now be able to access web sites on the Internet. I just tested it myself and had no issues connecting so it's definately not a configuration issue with your Macs.

    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.
