Only one speaker (for both) to work (after checking the FAQ)

Hello

I have an inspiron N5110 R15 3 years now, a few days ago one of the speakers stopped working. When I do a test of stereo sound, the left speaker (the one that always works) its left AND RIGHT sample tones. so I figure this is on some kind of maybe Mono?

-When I plug the headphones I have the sound on both sides.

So far, I have tried

1 reset

2 tried update driver if the Device Manager

3. turn on device

4A ran the audio problems (win 7, 64 bits)

5. looked around the frequently asked questions here

* I do not uninstall the driver and downloaded a new because it seems strange to be the issue, after working for 3 years and all of a sudden it stops. you are the experts, so I'll gladly do if you say.

current driver is manufactor (IDT high definition...)

Thank you in advance.

Another test, that you can run is ePSA Audio Quick Check. Note that not all ePSA and ePSA models do not all control by Audio fast. If you do not then just fail the color bar test as described in the FAQ. If you hear tones in the two speakers at the trials then the speaker itself is good and another part is the cause of the problem, probably the socket for headphones, since you know the audio working properly up to this day.

If you hear only tones in one speaker and the other speaker is confirmed then failing or has a bad connection.

The final test you can do is to perform a System Recovery. If it's a software problem then recovery will fix the problem and if it is material, then it will be no and hardware will be confirmed as the source of the problem. But no point in doing so, if only one speaker is heard in the previous test...

I do not uninstall the driver and downloaded a new because it seems strange to be the issue, after working for 3 years and all of a sudden it stops.

You need not to do because you tried the native driver which served the same purpose. A simple re-installation of the audio driver (no download) is that your settings will be lost - in other words, the default configuration is restored thus exclude a problem of configuration, such as defined as mono in the sound properties.

If you want to check this, open the playback of the sound properties, right click on the speaker/headphones, select Properties, click the levels tab, click the Balance button. It does not matter how cursors are defined so that they are both the same level of the dB.

Download a new copy of the pilot aims to eliminate corruption from the existing driver. Sometimes, they stop everything works correctly.

  • Only one speaker works on the bottom of the phone

    All the documentation that comes with the Turbo 2 and online documentation I've seen before buying indicate that there are two audio ports on the bottom of the phone, one on each side of the Verizon logo. However, only the side right (while facing the phone) actually works. The left speaker does not work. Verizon, which did not, I called and they put someone in support of Motorola on the line. The motorcycle rep says absolutely the two speakers should work and my phone is defective. They suggested that I return it as a guarantee of Exchange. I'm happy to do, but before I did I stopped by a verizon store and checked four phones they had on display. All four phones had the same "defect". So is - can anyone clarify if both speakers work on any Turbo 2 phones?

    I was also wondering with all these mixed news, but there's a tear down video on YouTube which shows clearly there is only one speaker. I hear only on the bottom right, that nothing about ports to the left on mine.

    I need to create a table of contents in iPages but I want only one word for the title, not the line of holes. Or, how can I change the contents of the table? Thank you!

    Yes, you can have a one word title, by assigning a paragraph style title to this one word. No, you cannot change the text in a Table of contents, but you can change paragraph style font attributes (line) and add for example, a head of points between the types of OCD paragraph and page numbers. No part of the table of contents will not provide hyperlinks in exported PDF documents.

    When you look up in the menu bar, you can see the word iPages, or simply Pages. There is no product of iPages.

  • Speakers stopped working after changing the device sound card

    * Original title: switched to hi-speed of dial-up, speakers stopped working / / rev. #2 Can I change the title of: speakers stopped working after changing the device sound card

    I have a Motorola SM56 speakerphone modem, I went from dial-up to the Road Runner.   When I open Device Manager and expand the sound column it lists "High definition Audio Device" (manufacturer of Microsoft), there are 4 that say "NVIDIA High Definition Audio" then there is one that says "Unimodem Half-Duplex Audio Device.  When I open the properties of the Unimodem device it says ' device working properly. "

    Let me start at the top under "General".  It lists the name of the device: Unimodem half-duplex Audio device.    Device type: audio, video and game controllers;    Manufacturer: Microsoft;    Location: Motorola SM56 Speakerphone modem.

    My speakers worked very well before I went.   I tried updating the driver but he came back with "best driver already installed.  It is a desktop PC, it is about 6 years old, but has been revised, graphics card new, updated to power, new 4 GB ram I think.  The hard drive is 1 TB.   I'm running Windows 7 Pro.  I forgot to mention, if I open a WMV file and volume in the taskbar commands, I see the green light moving.  The green light on the actual speakers turned on, just no sound.  It seems to me that the old speakers do not like the new modem from Time Warner. (I'm an old lady, what the devil I know)

    It is a question of another driver, or is it something else?

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Are plug you the speakers into the modem?

    They must be connected in making your computer speaker, usually a light green color (read the manual of the machine). Go to control panel / sounds / playback and make sure that the type of speakers you selected as the default device.
    Audio device drivers updated its better to not use MS Update (it is not). Re-post giving your machine make name and exact model number (for example HP, Inspiron, ABC1234 etc.).
    See you soon,.

  • Time protection real HELP in MSE stopped working after running the utility in Windows Live OneCare cleanup tool?

    Protection in real time in MSE stopped working after running the utility in Windows Live OneCare cleanup tool? Error Code: 0x800705b4

    Hello Wally,

    Thanks for posting your query on the Microsoft Community.

    The question error codes and the description that you get suggests that you are facing problem when using MSE. This problem may occur if other security software, such as antivirus, antispyware and antimalware programs, are totally or partially installed on the computer.

    I suggest to change firewall security settings or disable temporary security on the system software and try using MSE and see if it makes a difference. How to temporarily disable security software, you can view the article mentioned below.

     

    Disable the antivirus 

    http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows7/disable-antivirus-software

    Note: Antivirus software can help protect your computer against viruses and other security threats. In most cases, you should not disable your antivirus software. If you need to disable temporarily to install other software, you must reactivate as soon as you are finished. If you are connected to the Internet or a network, while your antivirus software is disabled, your computer is vulnerable to attack.

    For more details, please see the article mentioned below and see that it helps you to fix the problem.

  • Inspiron n4010 only one speaker works

    Recently, I noticed that only one of the speakers on my laptop makes sounds.  The headphone jack works fine, I can listen to anything from there, when I plug headphones or external speakers, but when I am just using the speakers work only the left one.  I tried to re install/update to update all the audio drivers and frankly all the drivers on the computer, but it has not made a difference.  Someone knows why this happens / if it can be fixed?  It is a 2.5 year old old computer, so I don't really have a lot of hope for... but any info at all would be appreciated!

    Hi Ab0793,

    If the headphones and external speakers are working well, it seems a problem with the speakers. You can try to update the BIOS of the computer. Here is the link http://dell.to/ZP7wfQ

    Note: Before updating BIOS please ensure that
    * Battery is 10% > or > 10% charged
    * Adapter must be connected
    * No external device must be connected.
    * All other programs should be closed and saved documents

    If the steps above do not work, the speaker may need to be replaced. You can check the details of the security of your computer, you can click on the http://dell.to/QjjZDA link, type the serial number of your computer and click the warranty tab and let me know the status.

    Answer please if you have any questions.

  • Only one speaker works on the helmet

    This isn't a problem with the headphones, I tried several pairs, each of them works fine on other devices.  Is not a problem with the left-right balance of the speakers I checked this setting.  Curiously, the built-in speakers work fine.

    So good with these controls out of the way, I use a 2 week old Acer Aspire Timeline AS3810T running 64-bit edition Windows 7 Home premium.  A few days ago all of a sudden, I noticed that when you use a helmet only the left speaker gives sound.  It's as if there is no such thing as the right speaker.  I emailled Acer Tech support but they did not, and it's been 4 days.  The laptop has a HDMI output and a black audio jack with an icon of headphones and SPDIF letters.

    I also tried to uninstall the audio thingys in the Device Manager and downloaded the latest drivers, all to nothing does not.

    I just had a hunch that completely wipe the hard drive and reinstall windows would solve the problem, as it is difficult to imagine that the audio jack just died (jiggling around does not work).  So before I do and before I do a warranty request, I thought that someone would be able to show me how to check the relevant parameters, etc. without completely obliterate the current installation of windows.

    Hello

    have a. you been able to use the headset without any problem before?
    b. any recent hardware/software changes made on your computer?

    Try to activate microphone amp and check if the problem persists.

    1 right click on the speaker icon on the taskbar (lower right corner of the screen).
    2. Select the recording devices.
    3. Select the headset and click the properties button.
    4. in the pop-up window, click the custom tab.
    5. place a checkmark for amp Microphone and click on the OK button.

    If you are still having the same problem then, it must be a problem with taking that your headset is connected. So check with the manufacturer for him.

    Let us know if it works.
