microphone is detected but does not sound pick up.

I am using a microphone with my computer.  In the dialog control sound control panel it says microphone "works".  It is not muted and the volume is completely.  However, when I talk into it, it does not record that there is no sound input and bars do not move up and down as they should.  So of course, I can't save anything, because there is no 'hear' me.

I've been Googling this all day and I feel very embarrassed that I can't understand it :(

It turns out that, it seems that it was the microphone itself that was the problem.  I went and took my brother to another mic and it works very well.  Ugh!  Sorry to have wasted your time with my STUPIDITY.  Thanks for the suggestions, I ended up updating my drivers anyway, so I guess that some good came out of it ;)

  • gamepad Xbox 360 detected but does not work on windows PC 8.1

    I recently got the game pack and usb support, and I tried to connect it to my laptop. I am sure that it is in a USB 2.0 port, and it is detected (depending on the devices and printers) at 90%. However, each guide I find tells me to open 'the game controller settings' in the menu devices and printers and test the device, or open Joy.cpl. There is no option 'game controller settings' for me, and joy.cpl doesn't detect anything. I tried all the drivers I could find and had to restart at least 10 times trying to follow all the guides, but it won't work.

    I also downloaded the software that is supposed to come with the regulator in line, and a guide that I used, I would just download the version of windows 7 and open it in compatibility mode, I did, but that didn't help. He gave me the software for the controller, and I have the small window that shows how the controllers are connected. This window, however, does not detect the controller, saying he has no connection.

    It's very frustrating, and any help is appreciated.

    Thank you

    Hi Benjamin,

    I understand your frustration, but rest assured that I am here to help you with the question.

    The Play and Charge kit connects only up to the actual battery.  The controller connects wireless. You need an Xbox 360 Wireless Gaming receiver that connects to your wireless controller existing.

    Please meet us for more details so that we can help you.

  • Network printer is detected but does not install.

    I just bought a netbook Windows 7 Starter (32 bit) running, and I try to install my printer HP OfficeJet L7555 using the download of OJProL7X00_Full_14 (wired) network.

    My printer is detected on my network, and everything that looks like it installs fine and then he gives me a big red X and tell me that it can not install the printer at the moment, but it can put an icon 'Add a device' on my desk. I have done this and have since tried to use it with no luck.

    I disabled my firewall and antivirus but still no luck.

    Can someone help me?

    Fixed.  What a pain after several months.  After reflection, why I had two computers that work with wireless and two did not, the only difference I could think between them is the two who did not had fresh reinstall of Windows 7 x 64 while the other two have been underway for more than a year.  Made me think of one of the updates, possibly Win 7 SP1 may be the culprit.

    So I reinstalled Windows once again on one of the two who stopped at 50% of the HP 7780 install.  This time, however, I loaded only base Win 7 x 64 and different chipset, audio, video, LAN etc drivers.  I've left no WIndows updates occur.  Then I installed the last Full Version 14 software 7780.  Worked like a champ - found my wireless printer (which he always did) and then continued installation beyond 50% up to the end.  Once done, I'm done load all the updates for WIndows and other software like Office, Nero, games, etc.  Still works.  He worked on the other computer problem as well.

    Load the HP software before you let Windows updates occur.

    Good luck!

  • External hard drive detects but does not open without formatting

    I can't open my external hard drive. In computer science, it shows just K of disk space, but there is no reading of storage. It says 0 bytes of free space and used as 0 bytes space as it will not be open until I have format. Any kind of help, please let me know. Its a backup disk that have been most hard, though don't know if its of any help.

    Hi Deborah,

     

    I imagine the inconvenience that you are experiencing right now. I will help you on that.

    Formatting a disk means configuring the disk with a file system so that Windows can store information in there. Usually, when you install a new hard disk on your computer, it must be formatted with a file system, such as NTFS, Windows can store files that it contains.

     

    Please answer the following questions so that we can better help you.

    1 - is the specific problems of a hard drive?

    2. is it the problem persists when you use different USB ports on the same computer? If 'yes' then tick the question in another computer and let know us the results.

    3. don't you make changes to the computer before the show?

    I suggest to follow the steps below and check. Please move to the next, if only the problem persists after completing each.

  • After a clean install of Windows Vista, Intel Wifi card is installed and activated, but does not detect the network.

    Wireless card not working after a clean install of Windows Vista

    I did a clean install of Windows Vista Home Premium on my HP Pavilion of 32 bits. I've completely updated Windows via Service Pack 2. Given that the clean install, my wireless card, Intel (r) Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN, was not able to detect all the networks. The Wifi card is listed under NICs as being installed and activated. the hardware on my laptop Wifi switch is set on "on" and the light is blue, indicating that the card is working.

    I can connect to the internet if I connect physically my computer to the modem with an ethernet cable wireless, so the modem isn't the problem. Other computers can connect to the wireless modem, so my Wifi modem functionality is not the problem. The problem with my computer.

    I tried to uninstall the Intel driver and reboot my computer with the generic driver. Install the driver generic, but my wireless card has not always worked. I then ran an update of windows, nothing helps.

    I tried to install the "Intel® PRO /? Wireless and WiFi Link"drivers for Windows Vista (32-bit 13.1.1.1 the latest version and the previous version 12.4.4.5 32-bit) for the Intel® Wireless WiFi Link 4965AGN directly from the Intel Web site at http://downloadcenter.intel.com/SearchResult.aspx?lang=eng&ProductFamily=Wireless+Networking&ProductLine=Intel%C2%AE+WiFi+Products&ProductProduct=Intel%C2%AE+Wireless+WiFi+Link+4965AGN. The map didn't always work with a driver.

    In addition to the pilots, I also downloaded a tool of diagnosis of Intel (Intel® PROSet /?) Utility of WiFi wireless connection for Windows Vista 32 -? Bit). Said diagnostic tool the WiFi card is not installed or enabled, however, Device Manager maintains that he is also installed and active.

    Is there a problem that causes Device Manager to say that all is well with the card, but does not map to realize that they diminish the radio signals? Everything's fine, diagnostic, it just does not detect networks around him. Help, please.

    Hello

    The on/off switch actually works?

    Since it is an internal adapter to ensure it is enabled in the settings of configuration/F2 (BIOS/CMOS) often like you
    Start - so look at the screen.

    Have you tried the computer on other WiFi networks? You had a WiFi type problem before the
    Re-install of Vista?

    ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    Your router could be suspicious here, you have successfully updated its firmware as a possible solution? And I would like to
    Update your WiFi drivers on computers. How you are positioned in the router? Are there
    obstacles in the path?

    Actually try updating your driver and disabling the network logon.

    Control Panel - network - write down of the brand and the model of the Wifi - double click top - tab of the driver - write
    version - click the driver update (cannot do something that MS is far behind the pilots of certification). Then
    Right click on the Wifi device and UNINSTALL - Reboot - it will refresh the driver stack.

    Look at the sites of the manufacturer for drivers - and the manufacturer of the device manually.

    You can download several at once however restart after the installation of each of them.

    After watching the system manufacturer, you can check the manufacturer of the device an even newer version. (The
    manufacturer of system become your backup policies).

    Repeat for network (NIC) card and is a good time to get the other updated drivers as Vista like
    updated drivers.

    I would also turn off auto update for the drivers. If the updates Windows suggests a just HIDE as they
    are almost always old, and you can search drivers manually as needed.

  • Microphone is detected but cannot save a

    Dear members,

    I have the following problem:

    in first pro cs 5.5 I'm recording a voice on. I use a pc with windows 7 64 bit.

    The microphone is detected, I see an amplitude, I press the record button

    but when I press on play that he plays alone, the record button becomes disabled and just, it does not record anything.

    First I tried with an external sound card USB and thought that would be the issue (because I have red adobe programs are not compatible with usb sound in many cases).

    but when I tried with the inside internal sound card line-in is the same problem.

    I already have the sounddevices I want to use as the standard in the windows configuration and also their selected in first preferences.

    As I said the two microphones are detected, but I can't save.

    I couldn't find any description of this error in any forum.

    Best regards

    Gruenberg

    The "solution" didn't really work.

    After some tests, I discovered that it has something to do with Audio-Reverb function in subsequences.

    Somehow, you can use only a limited amount of reverb effects in a subsequence.

    If you take the whole sous-suite and put it in the main timeline it works quiet well.

    Or erase one or two of the reverberations.

    Best regards

    I have the same problem with my printer Officejet 6700 Premium. I just replaced all the cartridges with HP new ones. The printer is now going through the motions but does not print blank pages. This happens for all what I am trying to print including Diagnostics pages. The printer is a little older a year is not under warranty. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

    Hello twoshirts,

    I saw your other threads, and I understand that you have completed all the procedures listed here troubleshooting: printer does not print black ink or color of ink or prints blank Pages without success.

    I would like you to follow the steps below:

    1. reset of the printer, please make sure that you plug the printer directly into the wall, do not use a surge protector or power bar, they can cause the printer is in an error state and lose features of base over time.

    2 a 'cartridge problem', "Ink cartridge failed" or not "compatible ink cartridges" Error Message appears on the all-in-one, I know you did the cleaning steps, but, if you please, reinstall the cartridges and perform all THE steps listed

    3. now go ahead and run HP print and Scan Doctor- it has been designed to provide users with HP and features troubleshooting fix needed to solve many common problems experienced with HP print and scan the products related to Windows computers.
