Yoga 2 Pro audio jack problem

Greetings,
Please know that I am not tech-savvy....at all! I have been researching this prpblem for about a week, and did find some posts here that are similar to my problem but the 'fix' didn't work I have owned my new Yoga 2 Pro 64 bit with Windows 8.1 (which I am not really enamored with) for two months. All was working fine until last week. I had been using the headset which had not given me any problems. But when, the next day, I plugged a larger speaker into the audiojack, as I'd done before with no problems, no sound came out. I realized that it was my laptop and not the speaker or the cable, and the speakers in the computer were workig fine.
Yesterday I plugged the headset jack in just to see if it would work, and suddenly it did--as did the larger speaker I plugged this Yoga 2 into. But there is no sound at all if there is nothing plugged into it, i.e. no headset or external speakers are plugged in and when I play something with sound, there is none.
Additionally, the screen warning comes on and goes off at random times, stating that I just unplugged an audio device, or that I just plugged in an audio device--neither of which I did at all..
What to do? I ran the test where I clicked on device manager, sound game etc, realtech etc, and it sai the driver is the correct one and does not need to be updated.
Thank you.

Audio Jack Problems

Hello everyone, I have a 5th generation iPod that has a bad audio jack, are there any quick fixes for this? The audio works fine in the left ear but does not in the right, if i put heavy pressure on the male 3.5mm connector to an angle then it works but while left alone it will not work with both ears. I have owned the iPod for a long time but the audio jack dying happened a few weeks off warranty and I was quoted an obscene price for a repair. I had initially gone through 2 ipod videos while on warranty. For $250.00 I would expect much higher durability during this products short life. I have bought mp3 players for easily half that price and has lasted twice as long.
I am just so disappointed in my iPod it isn't even funny. To me, this isn't just buying an mp3 player, it's an investment, it's a product that will become a major part in my life. After this died, I ended up getting a 4gb nano and the same thing just happened to me today. I have taken good care of both iPods, keeping them out of extreme heat or cold, areas that could contain high amounts of ESD for fear of having a reaction because of the metal backing on the product. I don't know if I am ever going to be able to put any faith in an apple product again after having FOUR iPods with problems.

Unfortunately, it appears to a bad audio jack as you have determined. It will need to be replaced. Either you can purchase it [HERE|http://www.ipodparts.com/ipodpartscenter5g.htm] or from several other sites on the internet and then install it yourself using the instructions shown [HERE|http://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Repair/Installing-iPod-5th-Generation-Video-Headpho ne-Jack-Hold-Switch/604/1].
The other option is to send your iPod out for service to a site like [*_THIS ONE*|http://www.missionrepair.com/Mission_Repair_1st_Gen_iPod_Video_Diagnosiss/275.htm].
I recommend the latter option unless you are confident that you can do the repair yourself.

IPhone 5 audio jack problems

My iPhone 5 audio jack seems like it's broken or something. Every time I put my headphones in and I move them a little bit the music either pauses, changes into a different volume , only plays on one side ,or sounds like static. Is is broken? If so can it be fixed? Also it isn't the earbuds since it did the same thing when I use a brand new pair!

Bring your phone to Apple for evaluation. If defective, it will be replaced (free of charge if within the warranty period)

Audio jack problem. PRAM reset has only temporary efficacy

Audio will not play through 3.5mm audio jack output unless I reset the PRAM with an audio cable plugged in. If the cable is unplugged, even for a second, then the sound output reverts to the internal speakers and I have to reset the PRAM settings once again.

HP m7160n front audio jack problem

I am running Vista Home on my m7160n Media Center PC. I used to be able to plug in my headphones to the front audio jack and it would cut out the rear speaker output. Now it doesn't! I have gone into sound properties and is IS set to turn off rear jack, when the system detects a plug in the front jack. The headphones still work, but i need the speakers off when using the headphones. I hope thats enough information.
This question was solved.

Hi MrBassMan26,
That is odd and sounds like the jack-detect isn't working right. Did this issue just start happening? Did it occur after installing anything, even a Windows Update?
If it just started happening, you could try running a Windows System Restore to an earlier point when it worked properly. Or you could trying re-installing the sound driver or even installing an updated sound driver. That should take care of it, and if it doesn't you may need to make some configuration changes in one of the Sound properties (Windows or Realtek).
I see that you have Vista, did you by chance upgrade to Vista from XP?
Try installing the Vista sound driver from Realtek: http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/downloadsCheck.aspx?Langid=1&PNid=24&PFid=24&Level=4&Conn=3&Down...

MacBook Pro Audio Jack Issues

Hi guys,
So I’m having a really odd issue with my 2009 MacBook Pro 15”. Specifically an issue with my headphone port and my normal 2.1 Logitech speaker system.
I am hearing a buzzing/static/humming (can’t decide) noise from my external speakers when the headphone jack is plugged in. Without performing any action on my Mac, the sound will start, last for about 20 seconds and stop.
I can also manually manipulate this interference issue by doing a few things, like playing audio from a website/media player; watching videos with a media player or opening any site and allowing a flash file to play (YouTube). These actions seem to manually start this strange sound.
Now for the fun part. Whilst the headphone jack is plugged in, removing my HDMI and Ethernet cables seem to stop the noise completely. Touching the outer port with the HDMI or Ethernet will make the sound return. And when I remove the headphone jack and hold the connector with one hand and touch my MacBook Pro with the other, the sound gets louder - more noise.
I have also tried headphones, I can still hear the buzz It’s just not as loud.
I’ve read that this could be a grounding issue. I’ve unplugged everything and changed MBP chargers. The only thing I haven’t tried yet is different HDMI and Ethernet cables.
Any ideas?

Hey there d3adm8n,
This noise you hear when you have coming from the 3.5mm jack sounds to me like it could indeed have something to do with a grounding issue. I would look at the information in the following article about that, named:
Macintosh: Solutions for noise in the audio signal
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

QuickTime Pro audio sync problems

Hi, when I edit my videos in QuickTime Pro, the more I cut sections out from a video, the more the audio is out of sync from the video as it progresses; so at the start it is fine and in sync, but at the end the video and audio is not in sync at all. The video is fine before I start editing with no sync problems, it's only when i cut parts out. How can I get around this problem?
Thanks

ok, I output a lot of footage using quicktime conversion so I can edit in after effects or output for the web. I usually use the animation or h264 codec but the problem still persists regardless of which codec I use. < </div>
If the relationship between the tracks does not change over the length of the clip, that is, the audio doesn't drift more, your clip's tracks are actually in sync. One of the tracks, video or audio, has been set to start sooner or later than the other. I have no idea how that can happen, sorry, but I'm going to suggest the solution is going to be much less complicated than you might think: it's going to be a simple user error. We all have them.
It's a binary search, then, no way to shortcut it.
You try to find a good export and figure out what's different between a good one and a bad one.
Hope you get better advice on how to debug it.

Quicktime Pro audio synchronization problem when recording

My hardware is an Intel Based Macbook Pro with the latest Quicktime Pro S/W.
I have just upgraded to Quicktime Pro and I am trying to record video from a DV source (Canon camera acting in AV in/DV out mode). The problem I am experiencing is that the video and audio are out of sync by around 1 second, th sound seems to be in advance of the video.
Are there any setting which will affect this?
Has anyone been able to solve a similar problem?

I don't know what causes the problem, but I can give you a way to solve it:
Open your DV file with latest version 3.0 of SimpleMovieX and open the tools panel, go to Audio, and resynchronize it.
The do save, either as mov or reexport as dv format, depending on your workflow.

Speaker/headphone/audio jack problem

I've recently been having a problem with my headphones. The computer recognizes that I've plugged them in but it still uses the external speakers and there's no sound coming through the headphones. I've tried more than one pair of headphones and it still doesn't work. Restarting the computer worked once but not anymore.

Hi, there.
Newly purchased refurbished T430 Thinkpad with Windows 8.
Listening to music, I plugged in my headphones, everything worked just fine.
Unplugged the headphones to use on another device. Computer speakers worked fine continuing to play the music. So far so good.
But then when I went to plug the headphones back in, the computer did not switch to using the headphones to provide the sound. Just the main speakers.
The headphones make a chirping sound when plugged in (indicating the computer is recognizing the headphones).
The sound device area of the control panel indicates the headphones are working normally, but I can get no other sound from them except the "plug-in" sound.
Assistance is welcome.
EDIT: Oh, now the headphones work, but the computer speakers do not. No consistency as to which (headphone or speaker) is going to work and when; which is frustrating.

Having problems with audio jacks, connections are shorting. i need an alternative solution for mixing in logic

i am having problems with mac pros audio jacks,any alternative solutions ?

If you're mixing in Logic, buy a FireWire audio interface. So many people make them, that it isn't funny. Personally, I'm a fan of M-Audio interfaces for a cheap, high quality device.
Here's some FireWire interfaces, they also make USB products.

External Speaker Static: Problem with audio jack?

I don't believe that anyone on the forums had the same question.
I am having trouble with my macbook pro. Whenever I plug in external speakers, I get bad static (very loud, about as loud as the speaker's audio itself). I have tested this on multiple speakers and get the same results on all of them. When used on another computer, the speakers work fine. This suggests that it is something wrong with my audio jack for my mac.
I noticed that the 3.5 mm plug doesn't go all the way into the jack. There is about a millimeter millimeter or two of space This isn't much, but may be resulting in the static. I have tried forcing the plug all the way in, but it still does not go in. Any ideas?
I am trying to avoid having to get a bluetooth speaker or anything wireless.

Headphones don't induce grounding problems like external speakers. I am guessing the external speakers were all amplified speakers, with built-in amps and some sort of mains power supply. Perhaps you also have some peripherals such as a display connected to the Macbook Pro.
Try this: disconnect all peripherals from the MBP (including the Magsafe power plug) except the external speakers and see if you get static. I will also guess that the static is more of a whine/buzz that changes whenever the computer does something different.
If this works, then you have a common ground problem. The cheapest way to solve this is a Radio Shack ground loop isolator on the speaker cable,
