Getting low volume

Original title: still too weak volum

When all that can be rotated upward and the volume is still too low... anyone know what MS is going to solve this problem? Seems to be a big problem and as many bugs online by users, most of which is diving in install something else or do something the old way via old drivers.   Have they not still used us as guinea pigs enough a long time to get the information they need to solve this problem? I waited until today to upgrade and wish I would have waited longer and not fell victim to their... Get it now free or paid ads later.

Using headphones with Win8 was comfortable around 12-14... It's comparable to about 4-5 level on Win8 with Win10 to 100. Without headphones, the level is about 2 - 3, which is crazy and unacceptable.  Where is the best place to report?

  • Tecra A3 has very low volume

    Hi all, I bought a used Tecra A3. With Win XP Professional, service pack 3. I have not all records with him.
    It was working well before a week or two ago. It has very low volume, I have all levels of volume and the maximum wave. The manual volume knob on the front has no effect, it used to work
    I think the problem started when I downloaded youtube FLV files, then I downloaded a program ('super' was the name of the program) to convert the FLV files into AVI files.
    I uninstalled the program of conversion, I failed to convert anything. I've uninstalled and reinstalled the driver of sound card - card his Realtech AC97. I uninstalled and reinstalled WMP11. None of this has helped.

    On this view, I saw how to do a system restore. I thought to perform the system recovery can solve the problem.
    My question is, if I perform the system recovery, to the GET to the elimination of the parameters of the box, it will clear the WIN XP operating system?

    Thanks for any assistance received, Darren.

    Hello Darren

    Please do not be angry on me, but make you it so complicated. Let's be clear on this:

    Saved on DVD of recovery recovery image contains the operating system, all necessary drivers, Toshiba tools and utilities and some additional applications such as a DVD player. So if you want to install the OS by using Toshiba recovery media will be deleted all content saved on the HDD, formatted partitions and lately OS will be installed. When all is finished you will have clean operating system preinstalled. It will be the same State as the first day after the default purchase.

    Then I don't understand what you mean now with the restore process. During the installation of recovery is complete you must not install or configure anything. Just boot OS, install your favorite software, install the Microsoft updates and be happy.

    If you have any other questions please post again, but please if you ask something to be clear and precise.

    Hello @LeoManinder,

    Thanks for the quick response!

    I understand that you already exhausted the steps mentioned in the solution I provided in my previous post.  Try the following steps to stop your system to automatically update the Audio driver:

    1. Download the Package of troubleshooting Windows 10 "show or hide updates" (http://download.microsoft.com/download/F/2/2/F22D5FDB-59CD-4275-8C95-1BE17BF70B21/wushowhide.diagcab).
    2. Change the Windows Update Services automatic (delayed start) parameter to the manual.
      • In Control Panel, select administrative tools, and open Services.
      • Go to Windows Update and double-click it to view its properties.
      • Click on stop to stop the service to run.
      • Change the Startup Type to manual, and then click OK.
    3. Run the Windows 10 Troubleshooting Package 'Show or hide updates' and hide for the Audio from Realtek driver updates.  (This will block your system to automatically reinstall or showing updates the driver).
    4. Change back the setting of Windows Update Services to manual automatic (delayed start).
    5. Restart your computer.

  • The HT820 ear and lower volume stuck button

    I had these headphones for almost 2 years works very well. I don't have a bluetooth phone, but I use my HT820 with my HP Ipaq 211 listening to music or watching movies. I also connected them to my work and the home pc. At work I connected them to the phone Nortel 1150. I just had a few problems since I got to the two atria are beginning to tear. I had them in my backpack and I don't know how, but one ear cushion came off the coast. So I'm wondering where I could get replacement tips? The other problem I have is with the low volume on the left hand button. The button is stuck, but I can live with that, because it is just the right volume level. If I don't find any guesswork replacement I can buy another pair and I can leave the old one at work since I can use it with the 1150 of Nortel. Thank you

    As for the volume key. This aspect will likely be repaired if the warranty is only for one year. Sorry!

  • Too low volume of the microphone

    I just bought a new Toshiba Satellite L500D, with Windows 7, and I'm having a problem with the microphone volume, in this sound recording is barely audible.

    I followed all the steps suggested on this topic on the forum: http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en/w7music/thread/06582922-0014-4dac-9f74-b63f143fbb8e... .but nothing fixed it.

    It's a built-in microphone and audio driver is Realtek.  I did a driver update check and it integrates the latest version.  I all set to maximum microphone volume settings and tried to test records Skype and sound recorder for Windows.  They record, but it is extremely low volume, even if I'm leaning closer to the microphone and speak loudly.  Different recipients of Skype call could barely hear me.  The only thing that saves the high voice is when I run a finger over matte plastic of the monitor frame - which saves super hard for some reason any.

    I welcome suggestions as soon as possible.  I need my microphone to get the work done!

    I hope that the people at Microsoft can remedy the situation as soon as possible, because it is crucial to set!

    I had this problem for a few weeks, I recently read a forum post saying uncheck the: allow applications to take exclusive control of the device:

    Well, I found this setting and changed a few others and I think that he has fixed

    I went through the control panel > hardware and sound > manage Audio devices to reach the acoustic Panel.

    I selected reading > Speakers > improvements and made sure that everything was unchecked.
    "" I selected reading > Speakers > advanced and unchecked "allow applications to take exclusive control of this device.

    I went to recording > Microphone > listening and insured 'listen to this device' is unchecked.
    I went to levels and assured the Microphone level was 100% and the boost to + 10 dB
    I'm gone into improvements and assured that everything was unchecked.
    "" I then in Advanced and unchecked "allow applications to take exclusive control of this device.

    And finally I went in the Communications of the acoustic Panel tab, changed "when windows detects communications activity" to "do nothing".

    If anyone has a solution please share otherwise I think back to the android phone that I expected this question in the iphone.

    Hello aghaffar16,

    Thank you for using communities Support from Apple!

    It is my understanding that you experience low volume from your iPhone using a headset.  It is certainly not expected behavior.

    Looks like you have already made a good troubleshooting.  The next thing I would do is try another headset and see if the results are the same.  As obvious as it may seem, remember that the headphone is plugged all the way to the iPhone.  Don't forget to turn up the volume while you are actually on a call.  When not online, the volume allows you to control the music, alerts and other sounds on the iPhone, but not the volume of calls.

    More information on what to do if trouble hearing a call can be found here:

    If you do not hear a person on an appeal or a voice message or if the sound is not clear on your iPhone

    See you soon!

  • Low volume of C650 Satellite

    I had a Satellite C650 for a few years and the volume was still low on some youtube films.
    I turned in the control panel / its maximum amount, but still having trouble hearing, it is because it is incorrectly registered or failure with my soundcard?

    Any help would be appreciated.

    > the volume was still low on some movies to youtube
    >, it is because it is incorrectly registered or failure with my soundcard?

    I guess that the question of the low volume has nothing to do with your laptop or the sound settings.
    In my opinion, it depends on the movie.

    To check the availability of sound, you have to play some sound CD or DVD of the films that have been recorded professionally.

  • low volume on iphone call 6

    Dear Sir

    I own my iPhone 6 last year and she has completed the warranty

    While.on is am.adjust too low volume level and also on request your Apple supports.

    What to do please help me

    Hi, this may help.

    Increase the volume

    While you are online, the volume with the volume buttons. Make sure that you see the on-screen volume indicator when you press the volume buttons.

    Check the connections

    If your iPhone is connected to a headset, you will not be able to hear through the receiver using speaker or the iPhone. Follow these steps, after each.

    1. Make sure you have nothing plugged into the headphone jack or the dock connector.
    2. Go to settings > Bluetooth and turn Bluetooth off.

    Turn off the receiver

    The receiver of the iPhone will not work properly if it is blocked or dirty. Follow these steps, after each:

    • Make sure that nothing is blocking the receiver, such as a case or a movie.
      If you have a new iPhone, remove the plastic on the front and the rear of the unit.
    • Check the receiver opening to see if it is blocked or dirty. If necessary, clean the receiver opening with a clean brush, dry, soft.
    • While you're online, turn on the speaker. If you still do not hear, then your network or the reception might be the issue. Try calling again later or somewhere else.

    Check the receiver

    Follow these steps to see if the problem is with your receiver or your network:

    1. Open the dictaphone application and record an audio clip.
    2. Type in the upper right corner of your screen to switch playback between the speaker and the receiver.
    3. Press on to play the voice memo by the receiver on your device.
    4. If you hear the voice memo and it seems normal (without distortion, crackling or static), there might be a problem with your network or carrier voicemail system. If you still hear no sound good or bad quality, contact The Apple support.

    Update and reboot

    1. Restart your iPhone and the test again.
    2. If there is still no good or bad sound quality, update to the latest version of iOS.
