Microphones do not work

Internal, external & LifeCam Cinema Microphones do not work even though Device Manager and and his file States that they work properly.  I have the latest drivers.  When I go to sound recorder it says "Audio recording device is not found," for all the reported bugs.

Hello

Control Panel - device - SOUNDS - look for HD Audio Manager - Mine said RealTek High Definition Audio
(this is an example and your can have an other name/maker).

Make sure you write down the description and model double click top - tab drivers - write version. Now
Click on update drivers who cannot do anything like MS is far behind the certification of drivers. Then RIGHT
CLICK above and UNINSTALL - REBOOT - this will rebuild the driver stack.

If your driver shows 06 you have the default windows and part of the question. Older drivers may also
be the cause.

Go to the system manufacturer's website and get the latest Audio/Sound drivers - download - SAVE - go to the place where you
Put them - right click on Reboot - RUN AS ADMIN -.

Check the Version tab of the driver in the Device Manager as the restoration of the sound card drivers often and then
Finally, install the current version. Restart and check after each test, not uncommon to have to run
the pilot of 1 to 4 times or more. Just make sure that the version you have installed appears in the tab of the driver.

Then navigate to the site of the manufacturer of the device and search for the drivers more recent and repeat the installation procedure.

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

    Hello Bllacke,

    Thank you for using communities of Apple Support.

    I see from your post, some applications have a problem to access your Microphone. I know how it is important to ensure that your applications have access to the Microphone and can use this feature. I have a few things I want to try.

    First, tap Settings on your iPhone and then scroll to the last section that lists your apps. Select the applications that use the microphone and make sure that the Microphone is activated (green).

    Then, follow the steps in the article below to close these applications:

    Force a nearby application on your iPhone, iPad or iPod touch

    Then, test the microphone in these applications again and see if it works.

    Best regards.

  • iPhone 5 s microphone does not work during phone call

    Hello! My iphone 5s works really well, sensors, speaker, camera, all right. Similarly, the microphone works really well when I make a call using 'whassapp', 'line', etc and I can record video, talking to Siri, using voice memo and once more my microphone works really well. BUT! When I make call and receive phone call my microphone does not work, they do not hear my voice at all. What will happen with my microphone when you use the cell phone call? HELP ME PLEASE!

    Try resetting your device. This will not erase your data stored on that device.

    • Press and hold the sleep/wake button
    • Press and hold the Home button
    • Press and hold both buttons until the display turns off and on again with the Apple logo on the subject.

    Alternatively, you can go to settings - general - reset - Reset all settings

    If that doesn't work, restore your device to factory settings. Please note that this will delete the data on your device.

    Take a look this Apple Support article: use iTunes to restore the iPhone, iPad or iPod to factory settings - Apple Support.

    As a final step, try recovery mode. Turn off your unit, then plug it to your computer with the hold home button. Hold down Home button until you see the logo of iTunes on the screen of your device. After that on your computer, you should see the iTunes window saying that your device needs to be restored to factory settings. Click Restore.

  • Microphone does not work with Win7 Ultimate retail worm

    Hello

    It's my laptop model:
    PSU40E (Satellite U400)

    I installed the new Windows 7 version final detail a few days ago.
    All the drivers work without problem

    Only the microphone is notworking at all.

    Can someone please help me here?
    Thank you

    Hello!

    Can you please explain what microphone is not working means?
    You may need to activate the microphone amplifier in the audio settings of Windows.

    In addition, you must update the driver sound and webcam. Micro is a part of the webcam and if this driver needs to be updated too.
    On the Toshiba page you can find some beta drivers for Windows 7 it s worth a try! ;)

    Moreover, what happens if you use an external microphone?

    Good bye

  • Satellite A500 - 14Q - Microphone does not work

    I have the Toshiba satellite A500 - 14Q for about 3 years. I changed the hard drive, keyboard, frame of the monitor until now, and I'm sick and tired of this laptop does not properly. Now, I've discovered that my microphone does not work. There is no problem in device, or with the driver manager. I hear that crackling noise when I try to enter any other micro device.

    Can anyone help please?

    P. S. I have windows 7 (64-bit)

    How did you test the mic feature? With the help of tool tape recorder?
    > the monitor framework
    Perhaps you have made a mistake and mic is not connected correctly. Did you do it alone or it was done by the Toshiba authorized service provider?

  • Satellite S50T-B - internal microphone does not work

    I have never attempted to use the microphone before today, so I don't know if it's a question that has always existed or barely took place recently.

    I have Windows 8.

    The internal microphone is not working I have a microphone with my recording devices menu. There are currently enabled, and another one that says that it is not plugged. This second microphone appeared after that I uninstalled the driver Conexant Smart Audio that was suggested on another forum.

    Currently, I use Microsoft windows HD audio device and outside this second pilot disconnected microphone in the sound menu. When you use the registered sound software sometimes I hear a click and when I click on the menu of the bar beside the microphone fills.

    I can't take the laptop where I brought what I moved the country after purchase.

    Hello

    As I m not wrong not the internal mic belongs to the internal webcam.
    From my understanding, you need to activate the webcam in Windows settings

    Open the camera app Point to the lower-right corner of the screen, move the pointer of the mouse to the top and then click settings. Click on Options. Here, you can adjust the settings for each option.

    As I m not wrong there, you should be able activate the microphone on or off.
    Finally if you want to use this microphone, you must set its default value in the sound? recording device tab.

    It's very strange. I installed Windows XP Home SP2 on Satellite U300 edition. It's the same laptop fine but a bit smaller and in my case works cam and microphone. I tested it with Skype. The sound quality is not very good, but it works.

    Are you trying to test also with Skype? Did you check the sound options?

    Laptop bought the UNITED Arab Emirates and now in India and its less than 1 year.

    Hello

    The internal MIC is part of the webcam module.
    What happens if you start the webcam, try saving and small clip? The sound recording is this too?

    Usually, you can change the recording devices in Control Panel-> sound-> recording tab
    Here, you can check what devices are available. Right click and check if hidden and disabled devices can be demonstrated.

    By the way: I had some problems with the playback of the sound after installing the Realtek audio driver. I uninstalled the Realtek audio driver and Device Manager remove the audio display Intel (in games, field audio video controller). In the peripheral zone system you could remove the controller high definition audio.
    Again, restart the laptop.

    Usually, removing devices should be recognized automatically. Then go again to the dashboard-> sound-> recording tab and check if other devices outside external microphone are available.

    > I tried to use Skype but my microphone is not working
    Have you tried to record a short clip using the internal webcam and webcam Windows application?
    If this isn't the case, that the built-in webcam is supported by the built-in microphone and it s able to record video and audio.

    I guess that you can not use the internal mic in relation to the Skype due to the wrong settings. As far as I know it of possible to change the settings of the microphone in Skype.

  • 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?

    This means that you have installed Win7 using original recovery image?
    If you have installed the own version of Win7 have you installed the software of webcam too?
