Impossible to change the audio settings

Original title: audio problem

IM using a dell laptop inspiron with one slot for my audio. He used to give me options each time I insert headphone or speaker, etc. now, I inserted the headphones, but I am not heard by cogamers, unlike before. I disabled the prompt where it shows me options so now I can't seem to change the setting when I use my headphones because my last choice was out of the speaker.

Please help me how can I find the option that offers me choices whenever I have insert audio output device.

Thank you.

To better understand the issue, I would like to know what is the number of the model of the laptop?

This problem could occur due to incorrect settings.

  • Change the audio settings

    Is is possible to modify all the audio data in a Captivate project as FM? I need to do audio as slide background sound that is already in the project. If it is possible, how would I go all this?

    Your process should be to have the original sound in the project at the highest possible quality and then just set the audio output quality of quality FM (64 Kbps).  Then when the audio is exported for release time and compressed in MP3 format in the output of all quality FM.  You don't need to do anything other than that, if you start with the highest quality in the project file.  Usually, I use 128 Kbps as a source and publish to 64 Kbps.

  • Palm Pre &amp; Exchange - impossible to validate the account settings

    I tried to get my pre sync with Exchange and make it work properly.  I got a few different error messages along the way, but now I seem to be stuck again.  Here's what I've done so far:

    1. entered my info the new account screen.  Come on an "impossible to validate the account settings" error.  I was using the following information:

    E-mail type: Exchange (EAS)

    Email address: {My Email}

    Incoming mail server: http://{ServerName}/exchange

    Domain: {DomainName}

    User name: {my domain user name}

    Password: {password}

    2A got the 1.0.2 update and the error message I tried again, same.

    3 Configuring SSL on the exchange server and tried https rather than http.  Same error message.

    4A changed username to {domainname} \ {UserName}.  SSL certificate error received.

    5. follow-up to the steps in the forums to install the root certificate.  Now make error "your username or password is not correct". I tried to enter my password several times to check that I wasn't go bad at.

    If I take the domain name on the username back to the incapable person to validate the error of account settings.  Anyone has any ideas on what could cause this problem?

    Hi avsfan273,

    First of all, you defintely should not put the domain\\user before your user name as a field dedicated for it on the meadow. Let's get out the part and focus on the error you get when it is configured in this way. Can you post the exact error message that you receive?

  • Sound problems on computer, cannot change the sound settings

    I had a long-standing problem in the audio settings of the Control Panel on Windows 7 where I can't change settings, configure anything or especially toggle of the devices. The options are there, but they have no effect when selected. Recently, I tried to connect my laptop to a TV, and as I could not set as the default audio device, I finally decided to try to fix things. I deleted and reinstalled the software Realtek my laptop and everything he has done is completely turn off my speakers, and all attempts to reactivate failed them. The unit displays in the control panel as a default active device, but claims of the taskbar that there are no speakers is connected, and if I click to set up the Realtek Audio, I have the same situation that before where absolutely nothing is happening.

    I tried troubleshooting sound problems, and all I get is the statement that an audio device is disabled, no attempt to fix or any option to enable. Apart from a system restore, that in general, I try to avoid, I feel that I have tried everything I can think of to fix this and only managed to make it worse. No help available would be appreciated to receive my laptop back to a functioning State.

  • How to change the audio output for the metronome

    Hello

    I would like to send the metronome (and speech signals) for monitors to the scene in the ear.

    I understand that I can do this in MainStage using different output for the above titles vs. the rest of the 'Concert '.

    I tried to follow the instructions of the Manual:

    Change the audio output for the sound of the metronome

    1. Choose the MainStage > Preferences > General.
    2. In the section of metronome on the general tab, choose another audio output on the shortcut menu to exit.

    PROBLEM

    1. on the general tab, only the outputs 1-2 are available/selectable (likely, these are also by default for all "Concert")

    2. Why is this process in the manual if it is not executable (without doing something to another additional Set up)?

    3. it's probably among the requirements of setting up more critical even easier for using MainStage with a live band, so why am I having to ask for help at all!

    Rant on (its been a long day)

    Grateful for any help to solve cela. I guess I can send the metronome (such as a click track) and speech signals on the same outputs, which are separated from the rest of the Concert... or should I change the outputs on the other tracks and keep the outputs 1-2 for the metronome marks / voice?

    Thanks in advance for all advice and my apologies for my frustration. JM

    To access the output audio, you need an audio interface with several outputs.

    Use the F2 key to enter the BIOS settings and change the order of boot devices. This option is under the STARTUP tab. Otherwise, you can insert the recovery CD when the unit is turned OFF. Turn it on and immediately press the C button. keep it down for a few seconds and unit is forced from the CD/DVD drive.
