Windows volume does not adjust with headset

Hi,
I have a Gioteck EX-06 Wireless headset.  For a while this headset worked fine with no problems.  Recently I am having an issue that occurs when adjusting the volume.
E.G. When I open the volume mixer and lower the slider for my '2.4G Wireless headset' it also lowers the slider the other applications such as System Sounds, Skype and Firefox. Now here is where the problem occurs.  Although I lower the sound and it
says it lowering it for everything else, in actual fact nothing is being reduced,   Skype is still at the volume it was before and the same thing with system sounds and Firefox.  For me to lower the sounds I need to click and drag the slider
for each of the applications separately which is a very irritating task to repeat while attempting to play a game.  This means the volume keys on my keyboard and mouse do nothing,  it shows the windows 8 volume thing in the top left, but no audio
is being reduced.
Please help, as this is becoming very annoying and has now sucked up a lot of time in order to look for a fix.
Thank You

Hi,
Generally speaking, this should be sound card driver problem, have you tried to reinstall its driver for test?
In addition, please check Event Viewer if it identify this problem.

  • ITunes 12.1.1 does NOT work with Windows - Fix??

    Hi everyone,
    I had issue after issue with the latest iTunes update (12.1.1) not working on my windows 7. It simply would not lunch when clicking on the shortcut to open.
    After a fair bit of searching I found this alternative version which seemed to do the trick and now it works:
    iTunes 12.1.1.4 for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) - iTunes64Setup.exe(2015-02-18)

    The "for older video cards" installer - which, like most prior "64 bit" versions of iTunes, is actually a 32 bit application with a 64 bit installer - may be a useful fallback if the full 64 bit version does not install or run correctly.  Although 12.1.1.4 is a major improvement over 12.1.0.71, there are clearly still some lurking incompatibilities with some 64 bit Windows systems/components.  It is, however, a little misleading to say that "iTunes 12.1.1 does NOT work with Windows" - in many cases it works fine without switching to the alternative version.  I have the full 64-bit version of 12.1.1.4 running on three systems - two Windows 7 and one Windows 8.1 - no issues with either installation or operation on any of them.

  • Better privecy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers?

    Question
    better privacy does not work with windows vista home prem. what other program removes LSO'S AND HOW can I stop trackers? edit
    Details

    As a temporary workaround, I believe this Adobe management page allows you to clear your "Flash cookies": [http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager07.html Adobe - Flash Player : Settings Manager - Website Storage Settings panel] (hosted on macromedia.com -- Macromedia was the original developer of Flash).
    Regarding the script error, if I'm reading the script correctly, it is related to accessing your Flash cookies directory. It seems the publisher's support forum is not currently available for searching, but that might be a good next step.
    In the meantime, could you check whether the script has the correct location for your Flash cookies directory? If you can't access Tool > BetterPrivacy, you could check here:
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''bpr''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) There should be a bolded setting named '''extensions.bprivacy.DataDir''' which looks approximately like the following:
    C:\Users\''yourWindowsUsername''\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia
    Do you have a similar value? If you paste the path used by BetterPrivacy into a Windows Explorer window, does it open? Also, click a couple levels in the folder, can you see:
    Flash Player \ #SharedObjects
    If the value is wrong, right-click the wrong value and choose Reset. BetterPrivacy should update the value the next time you try to access it.
    If the value is blank, you could try inserting a sensible value and see whether that helps.
    Any luck?

  • Windows 8.1 Mail app does not sync with the Office 365 account

    My company has recently switched to Office 365. Windows 8.1 Metro Mail app does not work with Office365 account. When I switch to IMAP it works but that is soon going to be disabled and is not compliant with the company policy.
    I can add the account and it also pushes the security policies but it does not sync email at all. Says account is not available. The tablet shows up on the mobile devices on the office 365 and I could also remote wipe it.
    It seems everything works except basing email sync. What could be the issue?

  • Microsof VX 3000 or 6000 Webcam does not work with Lync 2013 under Windows 8.1

    Hi,
    The problem is that i cannot use the Microsoft VX-3000 or VX-6000 with Lync 2013 under Windows 8.1.
    If i go in settings under Video i can see the preview from the webcam just fine, so it works there no problem.
    Wenn i try to enable my camera in a conference it does not work, i get an error: Your video cannot be started.
    Now, there are no Windows 8.1 drivers for the Webcam so i installed the latest Windows 7 drivers. Because of that this webcam does not work with apps, that is fine i understand the driver problem and the way the new apps work.
    But this Webcam works with skype under Windows 8.1 and it works with Lync 2010 client.
    The same Webcam works just fine with Lync 2013 under Windows 7.
    Is there anything i could do so that i get this Webcam to work with Lync 2013 desktop client under Windows 8.1?
    Thanks

    Hi,
    According to your description, it may be caused by driver.
    You can try to install the latest version of Display Driver to fix the display issue.
    Since there is no driver for Windows 8.1, I suggest you wait for updating.
    You can also post a case on Windows 8 forum, thank you for your understanding:

  • Window 10 build 10041 does not work with Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet on ASUS motherboard

          
    I originally posted this question here:
    answers.microsoft.com/en-us/insider/forum/insider_wintp-insider_update/window-10-build-10041-does-not-work-with-intel/6729892f-83aa-4822-b20a-ea84f4fd06c7
    and was asked to post it on this forum...
    I updated a computer I have which is a quad core i7 that I built and includes an ASUS motherboard with Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet built in. Windows 10 preview 9926 worked fine with this network adapter. Window 10 build 10041 does not, and I have tried
    it twice so far. I even went as far as buying a Thunderbolt-Gigabit Ethernet Adapter (Broadcom, sold by Apple)... and while it installed the driver automatically, it did not work either. Each time you try to view the properties of either of them, it locks
    up or give an error. In fact, doing much of anything with the Intel adapter icon assures you of not being able to do a clean reboot... have to kill power.  I have finally gone back the previous version 9926, which has its issues but no where near as bad
    as not having any network connectivity!  Does anyone have this issue and a workaround? 
    Note, there are two images on the windows 10 preview forum that I posted this question on. I could not post the full link as I was getting a message here that links and graphics are not allowed.

    Thanks Roger, I posted the following yesterday in the other thread (thinking it was this thread - confusing after they moved it here)... It may be that the new driver fixes the issue that 10041 has with it, but I have not tried that yet. If I do I will update
    this... Thanks!
    I have more information about this, which basically exonerates any issue with the Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet hardware or software. I have 3 computers with Windows 10 preview so I have multiple angles to see issues from. With this I have found a culprit
    (but I suspect not just the only culprit) in this above mentioned problem...
    10041 build combined with installing (or attempting to install) CISCO VPN Windows 7 64bit 5.0.07.0440-k9 client causes the issue mentioned above. I confirmed this on a completely different machine with a totally different Ethernet adapter. First machine
    is an ASUS motherboard in a tower system I built, with the Intel 82579V Gigabit Ethernet hardware built in. Second machine is a Gateway Laptop from 2008 which has a Marvell Yukon 88E8057 PCI-E Gigabit adapter built in. Build 10041 will work fine with my 2008
    laptop, including the MS VPN client (which I have tested). However, if you attempt to install or even uninstall the Cisco client you will have to do a recovery to a restore point (as I have done twice) in order to get your network working again. Installing
    or attempting to install (because it never even does install properly and times out), CISCO VPN client will render your entire network unusable. Going back to a restore point saved me and I am still running 10041 but I can't use CISCO VPN client any longer.
    I could with build 9926, including on all 3 machines. I now have 9926 on two machines and 10041 on only the 2008 laptop. 
    Hopefully this above information helps someone resolve the issue. I will also mention, even though my network is working on the 2008 laptop, I still can't go into the Control Panel\Network and Internet\Network Connections and right mouse click on the Marvell
    Yukon 88E8057 PCI-E Gigabit adapter icon. I get an error when clicking on Properties menu popup : "An unexpected error has occurred". So something is still up with my network adapter driver or windows software, but it could be a side effect of all
    that has happened with the Cisco software install attempts under 10041.
    Another note: CISCO Anyconnect also has the issue.

  • Node Container that does not resize with Window Resize Event

    Hello,
    I'm not new to Java but I am new to JavaFX.
    I plan to have a container/Canvas with multiple shapes (Lines, Text, Rectangle etc) in it. This Container can be X times in the Szene with different Text Shapes. I need to Zoom and Pan (maybe rotation) the whole Szene and the Containers/Canvas.
    So I was playing around with that but I have two issues.
    1) all Canvas classes that I found (like Pane for example) do resize with the main window resize event. The content of the canvas isn't centered any more.
    2) I added a couple of Rectangles to the canvas and both the rectangles and the canvas have a mouse listener which will rotate the item/canvas. Problem is, that even if I click the rectangle also the underlaying canvas is rotated...I think I need some kind of Z-Info to find out what was clicked.
    Here is the little example program, it makes no produktiv sense but it demonstrates my problem.
    Does anybody has a tip what canvas class would fit and does not resize with the main window and how to figure out what was clicked?

    To answer my own Question, it depends how you add childs.
    It seems that the "master Container", the one added to the Scene will allways resize with the window. To avoid that you can add a container to the "master Container" and tell it to be
    pane.setPrefSize(<child>.getWidth(), <child>.getHeight());
    pane.setMaxSize(<child>.getWidth(), <child>.getHeight());
    root.getChildren().add(pane);and it will stay the size even if the window is resized.
    Here is the modified code. Zooming and panning is working, zomming to window size is not right now. I'll work on that.
