External microphone does not work do not after update

Computer does not recognize my external microphone after an update.  How can we solve this problem?

The computer recognizes the headset but not my external microphone.

Most often when a device does not work, it is because the driver is damaged. Re-install a new copy should help

Remove the driver current completely and install the latest driver available.  For instructions on how to do read everything to update the drivers of my partner JMH3143 http://answers.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wiki/windows_other-hardware/updating-a-driver/a5e6345e-af9b-4099-bef0-8d22254aa1c1?tm=1436753520149 here

  • Satellite L50-B916 - recording external Microphone does not work

    Hello

    Connect an external microphone to * Headphone\Microphone combo socket *, still records through portable microphone instead of externally. Registration of external Microphone does not work.

    What Miss me? Please notify.

    Model: L50-B916
    Screenshot: http://s12.postimg.org/j8h3v5k4d/laptop.jpg

    I can't say with certainty what may be wrong here, but two things confuse me:
    -somehow your external MIC is obviously not detected because in the case when the external microphone is connected laptop switches automatically to it
    -I don't understand why there are two identical entries under recording devices.

    When I connect my headphone it is always a single entry (Conexant SmartAudio HD default unit), but my machine automatically goes to the external microphone only.

    Have you tested the feature with some applications like Skype?

  • Satellite A215-S4747 (internal and external) microphone does not work

    Hello

    I write about my wife by Satellite A215-S4747 running Windows XP.
    A few months ago as the built-in microphone and external microphone has stopped working.

    This made me think it was a driver problem, although no issue in
    Control Panel > sounds and Audio devices > equipment for all drivers.

    I went through the Troubleshooting Wizard, but that did not help.
    I went and downloaded drivers RealTek HD Audio (R2.67), but that didn't fix it.

    Any help is very appreciated.

    Thank you

    Peter

    I want to emphasize that this machine is about 6 years old, making the possibility of some parts break most likely...

    Hello

    Sound works. Right? Well well, in that case I n t think that it is an audio driver problem.

    First of all, I think you should check some basic settings.
    (1) mic device.
    Go to the control panel-> sounds and Audio-> Audio-> sound recording devices
    Here you check if device right microphone has been selected

    (2) mic volume
    Go to the control panel-> sounds and Audio devices-> Audio-> audio-> Volume
    Here you check if the volume is at max level
    Additional button Advanced should be available at the bottom of the mic volume control click that it and check if the mic push in checked.

    Have you installed some tools or software which may affect (disabled) the microphone?

  • Satellite A300D-11 t - external microphone does not work

    Hello.

    I have the Satellite A300D-11 t, Windows Vista HP 32 bit SP1.
    After almost a year of functioning of the system, Vista decided to fail. So I reinstalled it.

    I downloaded all the necessary drivers and forgive me - no unnecessary waste, such as + help +, + acoustic silencer +, + Config Free + and so now (surprisingly fan slowed down and all the computer is colder).

    Now. When I plug the headphones with built-in microphone system does not automatically switch on this one.
    In + Control Panel / sounds + I can see that I plugged it, I can do a test and the test itself works perfectly with a helmet but + recognition + however receives sound from microphone.

    Also when music plays of any player, plug the headphones does not switch anything - music plays again from built-in speakers. The same situation with + Skype + and change any setting does not help.

    Initially, I forgot to install the audio drivers because Windows has done it for me, but adding it did not improve the situation.

    I'm starting to think that maybe I didn't install anything. Here's what I have so far:
    -lan drv - 20080715144843
    -modem drv - 20080403094119

    -touchpad drv - 20080715144806
    -webcam drv & soft - 20080715144822

    Can someone help me with this?

    Hello

    As far as I know that the laptop supports the audio chipset Conexant CX20561 then you must install the Conexant audio driver!

    Please install the SP3 of XP Win first before install you the audio driver.

    PS: If the newer BIOS version has been released then update also!

  • Speakers work, but the microphone does not after OS reinstalled (dv6)

    Sound is played through the speakers, but the Bay internal microphone and external microphone device receive no signal. Windows recognizes these devices, but the volume on the sound Panel Monitor is inactive. In addition, the webcam works fine.

    I just reinstalled the operating system and everything worked fine before this date. I installed the driver IDT High Definition CODEC (same driver as before) and the Device Manager indicates that it is up-to-date and functioning normally. I am running the same OS as soon as before reformatting (Windows 7 64-bit).

    Yes, these devices are turned on and yes I have checked the noise levels of these devices.

    Update: when I try to run Sound Recorder I get an error message: could not find an audio recording device.

    Solved! I ran HP Support Assistant, and he recommended that I have install a BIOS update, I did. After you restart, audio input is recognized.

  • External microphone does not work - HP G62 Windows 7

    Hi all

    My microphone works fine. Also, if I plug in a headset, his mic works fine as well.

    However, I tried to use an external microphone like this:

    but it does not work on my laptop HP G62, although it works perfectly on a PC.

    I'm running on Windows 7 Ultimate.
    Any tips?
    Thank you

    heheheh... Sorry, I was wrong! I've changed the mic to stop rather than switch!
    The word 'on' should appear when you switch, not disappear.

    Hello

    It looks more like a hardware problem, I mean a problem of external microphone jack what you think?

    Just a question;
    It is perhaps a silly question, but are you sure you used a right sleeve to 100%? Maybe you mixed the headphones with mic jack

  • Y50 external microphone does not work do not

    Bought the Y50 because it is decent spec for video editing (which works well), but - can not get the external microphone to work.

    Tried a headphones/mic adapter.

    Tried all the different settings in Realtek HD Audio Manager

    I tried Control Panel / its parameters - this allows me to use the ' Mic in towards the front (black), even if it's on the side of the laptop - the volume indicator shows a signal comes from the microphone. The other "Microphone" device also shows that it works for the built-in microphones. I can type each microphone independently to see the answer in each Panel.

    But - I can't get any software on the laptop to record really any external microphone signal, what I need for the voice-over.

    The Installer 'Configure your speech recognition' "Assistant configuration of the Microphone" show a small volume entry but repeat myself "the computer did not hear you clearly.

    Update

    Feel a bit of a numpty - the microphone works now - whenever I tried to hear the recording of the test and I got the silence - that as a failure - I just needed to unplug the microphone from the socket to allow the speakers to play confused recording. Read white noise headphones - must deal separately with this!

    Thus, the headphone splitter adapter is the key.

    Hello

    Yes - as I posted in the update - separator solved the problem thanks.

  • T420s external microphone does not work

    I just bought a T420s, 4174-P5G Type, I want to use an external stereo microphone (Sony ECM-719) rather than the built-in microphone, but as soon as I plug the combined headphone/microphone jack, the microphone is recognized as helmet.

  • For hp dv7 fingerprint reader works does not after update to 8.1 windows

    Hello

    I upgraded Windows 8.1 Windows 8.  Before updating the finger print reader worked. I used it to connect to websites in any browser Firefox. I also logged into windows with my fingerprint reader and the screen unlocked the same way.

    I have updated all the drivers according to the instructions on updatig before windows 8.1 and after update.  I checked that everything compatible with windows 8.1 again by the instructions before putting up-to-date.

    After that update the drive light will not read the finger scan and the light does not illuminate. I went to the control panel to check the driver and he was later. I ran the windows driver verifier and on the HP site checked for validity sensor driver is up-to-date.  When I open simple passage it says congratulations you can connect in the window by the touch of the finger. When I go on Internet sites I have red cells connected with simle pass, he now seeks to connect with the password "master."

    Any help would be appreciated!

    Thank you

    BattleAngelita,

    Welcome to the HP Forum.

    Does the SimplePass asks your for your master password Windows means that the program has survived the process of upgrading to Windows 8, 1 - somehow.

    You can start with the following:

    • Close all your programs and shut down your computer

      • Unplug everything (little unifying for the keyboard / mouse external can stay)
      • Perform the Hard Reset for your laptop
      • Start the computer and connect
    • Check is SimplePass himself has sorted them.

    ==========================================================================

    You can try to update your SimplePass program to the latest version in the series of version 6.x.

    Before you do this, read and follow the instructions to export your Webcards in your .tsd file.  Regardless of whether the Web site connections are working right now; you need this backup in case you lose your HP SimplePass program (thanks to the complete removal / reinstallation or if corruption).

    Then, consider updating the HP SimplePass program to the latest version 6 series.  If you are already using the latest version, consider other options in the guide, including the "Repair SimplePass" procedure.

    Open the file > click Download > click 'open in Adobe Reader.

    It's a nice way of saying 'Thank you' for help.

  • Webcam works does not after update

    After a recent update on my Windows 7, no webcams work longer. Locate the can´t system, as are they connected werenâ´t.

    I have can´t reinstall the device drivers, because I have a Microsoft LifeCam VX-500, and its pilots are supposed to be a native component of Windows 7. I also tried with other devices, and none of them does not work either.

    I have can´t reinstall the device drivers, because I have a Microsoft LifeCam VX-500, and its pilots are supposed to be a native component of Windows 7. I also tried with other devices, and none of them does not work either.

    You can always reinstall drivers even if they are native in Windows. Go to control panel and open the Device Manager. Look down the list of all references to your webcam (video, microphone, etc.). They may appear with a yellow! mark indicating there is a problem with the driver, or they might not. If none does everyone try to enable 'Show hidden devices' in the view menu. For each entry in webcam that you find, right-click on it, select properties then driver. Click on the button that says "roll back driver". The earlier work driver should then re - install.

    If the Roll Back driver option is disabled which means there is no new driver installed. You can always reinstall the driver however. Right-click on each entry in webcam and select uninstall driver. When it is unplug your webcam. Reset is optional, if not plug your webcam into even once (in a port on the computer NOT to a hub) and Windows should re - detect and install the drivers again.

    In case it was an update of the driver who caused your problem when you rolled back each of the webcam drivers and tested the camera working again, go to Windows Update and look for the updates. The problem with the driver should appear again. From the screen to view updates (the one with the details on upgrades), right-click on the update of the webcam driver and select "hide update". After that it shouldn't bother you again.

  • Fullsceen Slideshow works does not after update (2015.2)

    Hi-

    Since the upgrade to the latest version, I note that the slideshow widget full screen does not work. He works within the Muse app (although that it crashed Muse sometimes when using), and although it will display with the built-in preview of Muse, as soon as you try to make an overview of the slideshow browser does not at all, it's all white.

    To make sure that it wasn't a problem in conflict elsewhere on my site, I tried to create a new site of the Muse and the only thing that I add to the page is a slideshow full screen and leave all the default settings (photo galleries and everything) and still nothing loads at all except for the next/previous/counter options.

    Hi BLSMagazine,

    As I suggested above, have you tried to view your site on another browser?

    Kind regards
