  • Satellite U300-13U - iTunes has detected a problem with the audio configuration

    Please can someone help me? I have a laptop U300-13U and that you have installed iTunes on it. However, when I open iTunes I get an error message saying 'iTunes has detected a problem with the audio configuration and may not play correctly' which is an understatement - it does not at all!

    I uninstalled, reinstalled iTunes and Quicktime, but in vain. I have searched and exhausted the iTunes support boards but have nowhere either. The sound is fine as I can read CDs with no problems at all. The only suggestion I can get is that there may be a problem with the audio device magnet is not Apple and vice versa.

    Does anyone have AN idea at all as to what might be going on here? I'm completely out of my depth, I'm just a simple girl who wants to play his music!

    Thank you so much.

    Hello

    I don t use iTunes so I m not an expert player but first of all, you must give us some important information:
    -What operating system do you use?
    -Are you using the factory settings (Toshiba Recovery disk) or your own version of Windows
    -Do you have the yellow exclamation marks in Device Manager?

    OK, iTunes says that there is an audio configuration problem so do you trying to update the audio driver? If this isn't the case, you should try it.
    See the Web from Toshiba site for an update and see what happens. Then validate your result:

  • Problem with the audio sampling during export

    I'm having a problem with my audio sampling rate. For some reason, it is set at 8 khz by default when I export. It wasn't a problem until the last update (2 weeks ago). I'll try and give all the info I can to the front. I also tried customer support... which was a nightmare.

    OK, the question that I address is that when exporting audio sampling rate is 8 kHz by default. Which to my knowledge has NO relevant use what so ever. Even when I set the file format to the h.264 format, he insists on the reset to 8 kHz. Even if I manually set all look rendering queue and click on output module again once it back the sampling frequency to 8 khz automatically of changes that I need to set it again. Why can it not only be fixed to 48000 like all other adobe products is and as it was two weeks ago. Does anyone have an answer?

  • Satellite Pro C650D - problems with the audio and game controllers

    Hello

    I recently had problems with my microphone and speakers/headphones and game controllers.
    Sometimes the microphone stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

    Stakeholders sometimes still work when I connect headset.
    Some of the sounds are still coming through the speakers while some coming through the headphones.

    I have a usb game controller which also did not work everything properly.
    If I assign buttons in the program that they do not work in the game.

    All these devices are in Device Manager in a group that makes me think it's sort of annoying update doubtful that messes with them.

    Any body have similar problems or know what to do better?

    See you soon

    Hello

    Can you please send some details on the laptop model and the system you are using?

    With regard to the issue of sound/mic:
    > The microphone sometimes stops working when on Skype, for example, but most of the time works fine, once again, when I restart the pc.

    Are you talking about internal microphone or external? This only happens using Skype?
    In your case I would test the microphone using different applications to make sure that is not a Skype related issue.

    > Yet sometimes the speakers work when I connect headset.
    I recommend this thread:

    The user has had a similar problem, but this phenomenon was linked to the Realtek HD Audio Manager settings.

    + There, finally I could re-enable the setting "enable popup dialog box, when the unit is plugged. +

    I put t think its problem of laptop in my opinion, you must make sure that the controller is compatible with the games you play and also recommended to check some info provided by the manufacturer of the game controller.

  • Problems with Maxx Audio after Windows 10 'upgrade '.

    It seems I'm not the only one with this problem. I use a laptop computer Inspiron 17R 5737 provided with Windows 8.1. After upgrading to Windows 10, I noticed two things: 1. audio Dell, my Waves Maxx Audio 4 works, but miss me all my presets in the QE and I'm actually not able to set ALL the parameters at all. I called Dell 3 times now, for a total of 6 hours on the phone, where they had me not uninstall, then download and reinstall the Realtek audio driver. After you have downloaded and installed 2 times, the EQUALIZER presets are back, but I still cannot do anything else in the program. I noticed, after the first time, update the driver causing the error with Maxx Audio. So the second time I reinstalled it, I do NOT update the driver, but I am still unable to make any changes to the program. It's very frustrating because I record music and mix the final product with my laptop.

    The 2nd question I have to be carried out in another forum, as it has to do with my laptop to wake up do not sleep mode.

    The audio issue any help would be highly appreciated.

    I solved this problem first by downloading the latest audio drivers from Dell Realtek. For my XPS15/M3800 is Realtek ALC3661 Audio Codec version 6.0.1.7525, A00. It is a download of 325MB. After installing it and going through 1 or 2 reboots, my Dell Audio Sound Manager has been restored, but all presets MaxxAudio were missing. To resolve this problem, I opened the Manager of devices--> sound, video and game controllers, the user clicks Realtek High Definition Audio and selected update driver software. I chose automatically search for updates. Windows has found a version update 6.0.1.7628, installed, rebooted and then my presets have been restored.

  • I have problems with my audio new laptop second hand when I plug in external speakers, it's as if some of the sound is missing. Can anyone help?

    Problem: Sound is missing for example hand singing on a piece of music.
    Laptop: Compaq Presario C700/C731TU
    Sound: High Def Conexant Smart Audio 221
    Version 4.42.0.50

    I tried updating the driver and also searched through preferences and settings but have not found a solution, this is the first place where I've been since then. IT all works very well by means of edge speakers, but even a standard set of headphones seems to miss her.

    Thanks for you suggestion, I did since then and he said that everything was working fine. I also tried a number of other suggestions from other sites, without success. I then went to do a physical inspection and when I unplugged the audio cable I noticed that the ring of metal around the entrance of my helmet was missing, I told the person, I bought the laptop. Fortunately he found on his ground, not knowing what it was and put it on the side of "just in case". I have re-installed and the whole works fine. So if someone else is reading this and is not able to resolve a similar audio problem with something to do with the software, look at the finer physical details. It could be as simple as that.

    There was a recent update of Windows that causes havoc widespread with audio. I suggest you try the solutions for this first before trying other things. Here are the 2 solutions the members of the forum have reported so far.

    ===========================================================================

    1ST SOLUTION POSSIBLE
    Countiss Forum member wrote that it is because of Microsoft...

    "KB2962407 update, stipulating that she fixed"Shortcut autonomy when an inactive audio device is not turned off on a computer running Windows". ".
    You don't have to do a restore of the system to get rid of updates; easier to go to Windows Update, view update history. On the top of this screen, click installed updates. "Then comes the with button the update you want to uninstall."

    =============================================================================

    2ND SOLUTION POSSIBLE
    Natakuc4 forum Member says update to Windows 8.1 will fix it. He wrote:

    "Ii you still on Windows 8.0." You should switch from 8.0 to 8.1 Windows Windows. See the instructions here:
    http://dellwindowsreinstallationguide.com/download-Microsoft-Windows-and-Office/Download-Microsoft-Windows/upgrading-to-Windows-8-1-from-Windows-8-0-via-the-Microsoft-store/
    Uninstall the audio and video drivers before the update. After the update, uninstall the network drivers and chipset and get drivers Windows 8.1 (WB64A).. »

    You can get the drivers that he mentions, either from the support page for your model once you select 8.1 as the operating system in the area of selection, or you can get the Dell ftp server, where they are named 'WB64A' and 'WB32A', which means 8.1 64 bit and 32 bit.
