Windows 8.1 Movie Maker Alone Does Not Record Sound (and never did)

I am using Windows 8.1 and having audio problems with Windows Movie Maker.  The problem is that it will record visually but not audibly.  In other words, I record a video from my webcam, and my appearance is fine, but the audio is blank. 
Likewise, recording narration does not work either. 
I do not understand this, because I have used my webcam on skype, and youtube: the sound works fine.  I have checked the volume, I have checked recording devices, which all imply that recording is doing fine.  I checked video volume, everything
was implied as fine.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Windows Movie Maker.  I have had help from a computer friend and we looked at every avenue we could.  If someone could tell me what I need to do to make the audio work on Windows Movie
Maker, I would appreciate it.  There may be some small thing we're missing.
THERE A WEBCAM PROGRAM AS A DECENT ALTERNATIVE TO MOVIE MAKER THAT HAS THE OPTION OF RECORDING NARRATION AS WELL?  IS THERE SOMETHING I MISSED?  If someone could tell me something, I would appreciate it greatly.

Hi,
Go to sound Volume Mixer and see if Windows Movie Maker shows up and is not muted.
Meanwhile, for issue about Windows Movie Maker, it is recommended to post in following forum:

  • I am unable to remove imported photos from the iPad.  The red delete button does not come up and synching did not help. Any ideas

    I am unable to delete photos that have been imported from a camera.  The red delete button does not appear and synching with the photos ticked and then unticked does not work either.  I have also tried attaching the iPad to the PC and looking for the photos using windows file management. However the only photos that I can find are those taken by the iPad itself. I am confused about why something that should be simple is not.

    If photos were synced from your computer then they can't be deleted directly on the iPad, you will need to remove/de-select them from where you synced it from on your computer and re-sync.

  • The video on my iPhone 4 (GSM) does not record sound properly.

    Anyone else have this issue?
    Sound does work for voice recorder.

    Are you sure there are no headphones connect with the headphonejack?
    If you start a game or another thing that makes a sound does it then work?
    If not maybe your speaker doesn't work.

  • Satellite L300 does not have sound and modem is also not working

    I have this Toshiba Satellite L300 (PSLB8A--1F004) an Australian model which was working perfectly well until I changed the harddrive after it developed bad sectors.
    I have installed Win Vista Business.
    I have all the drivers (TOSAPINS folder) that came with the original harddrive but when I did installed the drivers by following the correct order. i.e chipset, display, common modules, audio, modem and all other drivers.
    There is still a little red x on the taskbar saying " No audio output device is installed" and also I noticed that the modem is not listed under device manager. I have also tried replacing a working modem card from a same model laptop but it is still not showing any signs of picking up the modem as well as sound driver.
    I made attemp to download drivers from mytoshiba.com.au under the exact model and OS and installed but to no avail the problem is still there.
    No sign of modem picked up and the little red x on taskbar still says " No audio output device is installed" and on device manager its not showing the audio or modem. there is also nothing in yellow exlamation marks and also I've tried to view hidden devices but still there is no sign.
    Is there any thing else that I've missed out that I can try again?

    No I dont have the vista service pack and the internet speed at my end is too slow to download it.
    So I have tried installing windows 7 but the problem still remains.
    I have now removed win7 and have installed WIndows XP SP3 but there is still no sign of audio so Im stuck with win XP SP3 and trying to find solutions now.
    I think the problem may have been caused when I upgrade the bios...and Im still looking for ways to downgrade the bios to its original bios to confirm this.

  • Satellite A350D does not record sound

    Hi
    I have been browsing through the forums trying various settings through the control panel and webcam drivers but dont seem to be having any luck.  There was a post talking about "bios" but different laptop version than mine. 
    My laptop was orignally Windows Vista but the harddrive went two weeks ago and had to be replaced.  The recovery disks that were made when the laptop was bought new did not work at all as they would not load, and the Vista number on the sticker under the computer had worn out (my machine is about 4 years old) so we put Windows 7 on the machine. 
    I finally got my camera working again with a driver download but the sound / microphone recording is not working as there is no sound in the test videos I have done.
    If anyone has any suggestions I would appreciate it.
    Thanks
    Shelly

    Which Satellite A350D?
    If it's a US model, it's more likely to be A305D.
    The model number looks something like Satellite A305D-S6831. The part number like PSAH0U-00J007.

  • Itouch 4th gen does not record sound

  • Can I move my iWeb from mac-mini to my new macbook pro ? iLife 11 does not have iWeb and I really want to use it to update my website on my new macbook Pro instead of Mac mini

    Can I move my iWeb from mac-mini to my new macbook pro ? iLife 11 does not have iWeb and I really want to use it to update my website on my new macbook Pro instead of Mac mini

    There is no license required for iWeb.  Just do a Wyodor suggested and you'll be ready to go. If you're running Lion however, consider the following:
    In Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.
    To open your domain file in Lion or to switch between multiple domain files Cyclosaurus has provided us with the following script that you can make into an Applescript application with Script Editor. Open Script Editor, copy and paste the script below into Script Editor's window and save as an application.
    do shell script "/usr/bin/defaults write com.apple.iWeb iWebDefaultsDocumentPath -boolean no"delay 1
    tell application "iWeb" to activate
    You can download an already compiled version with this link: iWeb Switch Domain.
    Just launch the application, find and select the domain file you want to open and it will open with iWeb. It modifies the iWeb preference file each time it's launched so one can switch between domain files.
    WARNING: iWeb Switch Domain will overwrite an existing Domain.sites2 file if you select to create a new domain in the same folder.  So rename your domain files once they've been created to something other than the default name.

  • I am trying to transfer an old profile into Windows 7, but the AppData folder does not show up under my name folder in USERS. How can I find it?

    When I go to Help & Troubleshooting & click Open Containing Folder I get a Windows Explorer window that shows the file path including Used-Edward-AppData, etc. But when I click on the little triangle to the right of Edward the drop down menu does not include AppData and if I just go into Windows Explorer and Users-Edward, there is no AppData folder. So I cannot overwrite the profile file with the saved profile info from my earlier laptop. The folder symbol next to Edward has a lock on it but I don't know what that means or how to unlock it.

    %AppData% is the name of an environment variable.
    On XP that variable points to C:\Documents and Settings\&lt;user&gt;\Application Data\
    "Application Data" in XP/Win2K and "AppData" in Vista/Windows 7 are hidden folders, use %APPDATA% in the File name field
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Show_hidden_files_and_folders
    You can use Help > Troubleshooting Information > Profile Directory > Open Containing folder

    After updating iTunes this week Windows 8 recognizes the iPod but does not offer an option to open with iTunes. iTunes does not recognize iPod Touch. Have followed all the steps but without success. Is there a solution with iTunes?

    I followed all the instructions on the suggested page. Many files in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ and C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\ could not be deleted. Message said ""Cannot delete files: It is being used by another person or program"' but could not find iPodService.exe in task manager (also, the "Cannont delete ... " did not mention iPodService.exe).
    Deleted all that I could. Reinstalled iTunes. Still same result. iTunes and computer both recognize my old iPod. Only the computer recognizes iPod Touch.

  • WINDOWS 8.1 ALARM CLOCK DOES NOT HAVE SOUND

    WINDOWS 8.1 ALARM CLOCK/TIMER DOES NOT HAVE SOUND

    Hi:
    Works fine for me.
    The machine need to be ON for the alarm to be heard & sound/speakers needs to On & Volume turned up to audible level.
    Laptop can be in sleep mode but not powered off.
    Try right clicking on the speaker icon. This should open a window that is titled "Sound". When you select the playback tab -> it will show icons of the audio devices you have connected to your computer.
    You will need to select your stereo speaker device and then click the button "Set Default". This should enable your stereo speakers to play the sound.
