that only one speaker works

I am running windows XP. When I use windows media player sound out only a single speaker. Help!

Hi ecg1964,

· What is the number and the model of the speaker?

· What version of windows media player you have installed on your computer?

· Do you remember recent changes made to your computer before the show?

· This only happens with Windows media player application?

1. try to connect the speakers on another computer and check the results.

2. follow the steps in the link below and check off the results: solving Audio problems in Windows:http://support.microsoft.com/gp/troubleshoot_audio_windows

  • 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.

  • 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 working in Lifechat lx-3000 headset

    Using the Lifechat lx-3000 headset Windows XP, sound only comes out of the right speaker. Microphone works very well. I checked the balance, changed the usb connectors, reloaded drivers and checked the other solutions of this forum answers to just about any other problem with this headset and nothing has helped.

    Hello CShep,

    Thank you for your message.  Have you checked your helmet on another device to make sure that one side of the headphones is not a blown speaker?  Please let us know so that we can better help you.

  • UZ2315H - only one speaker works (?)

    Hello

    Just got my new monitor, UZ2315H.
    I connected to my desktop via HDMI.
    I also have it connected via USB in order to activate the speakers too.

    The problem is that I hear the sound of a speaker only (lower left).
    As the monitor has 2 speakers, I'm guessing that the other is bottom right. But I can't hear any sound from it. The sound only comes from lower left.

    What can I do? Should I send the monitor like DOA? Or I missed something?

    Thanks in advance.

    Hello again.

    Just to update and 'close' this topic, I thought that perhaps the HDMI cable has done, so I tried to use another HDMI cable, but, once again, the same result. Then I tried with another. Once again the same thing.
    Finally, I tried another Uncable (thank God I had a spare part) and then it worked. Now, I can hear two speakers.

    PS: I used a HDMI cable with an angle, because the original "pushes" the cable a little outside because of a piece of thick there, well can't explain it, it looks something like this:

    Thanks for your help anyway.

    :)

  • 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.

    Thanks and greetings

  • 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.

  • Check that only one box to advance to the text field

    I work in Acrobat Pro ms, I created a form and I have the following problem. The application form concerning the rental income, either monthly or annual (the format is less).

    What I want to happen, is if possible, if the user clicks on the checkbox monthly (monthly) the cursor goes to the 2 text and the user has entered the monthly amount.

    If the user clicks on the annual check (per year), the cursor goes to Text1, the user enters the annual amount. This amount is automatically divided by 12 and shows in the Text2 text field; and the cursor goes in the following text, Text3 field.

    Naturally, I don't want the user to click on the two boxes, but I don't know that the coding would take care of that, just do not know how come with the coding.

    £ Rental income monthly

    £ Annual if, Yes $ Text1 / Text2 $12

    Thanks for the help.

    You have 3 separate issues here:

    -Exclusive box

    -Jump to another field

    -Calculate the monthly payment

    -Exclusive box: you must give the two fields of the same name (say "times"), but the different export value, say "Monthly" and "annual".

    -Jump to another field: As the MouseUp event of the 'Monthly' box enter this script:

    this.getField("Text2").setFocus();
    

    As the event MouseUp "Annual" box enter this script:

    this.getField("Text1").setFocus();
    

    etc.

    -Calculation of the monthly payment: so you want this value to be entered by the user if the "Monthly" option is enabled, but being calculated if the "Annual" option is selected? It's a little complicated to implement in a single field, but you can try to use something like this as the "Text1": custom validation script

    if (event.value && this.getField("RentalPeriod").value=="Yearly")
         this.getField("Text2").value = Number(event.value)/12;
    
  • One speaker of EliteBook 8470p works

    Hi all

    I use a 8470p EliteBook and noticed that only integrated speakers work.

    I checked all the settings, levels, balance, done all kinds of tests and updated audio driver to the latest version.

    The result is that I still hear all the sounds of the left speaker only. When testing, I hear channels left and right from the same place, as if it was Mono. Helmet works normally.

    The plausible explanation only I could find, in addition to a fault, is since 2008 and for a completely different model: available to stakeholders had changed at the time and two speakers were nested in one of the slots of the speaker. However, it has been more than five years, and I think that it is not applicable.

    If anyone knows the question or disassembled this machine, please let me know what you think.

    Thank you!

    Hi Buzev

    I did a check on my p 8470 after seeing this post.

    My machine has 2 speakers, but they're right next to each other on the left side of the machine.  If I put hy head close enough, I can say that his slightly in front of the other, but both having one side certainly defeated the purpose of having a stereo sound!

    It seems that yours is laid out the same way.

    See you soon

  • Why I can't install adobe get: 'only one instance of this application can run.

    Hello, can someone help me with the installation of Adobe Flash Player?

    I tried too much to install but get this message "that only one instance of this application can run.

    I see all the Adobe apps, I tried to remove all of the adobe files and still nothing.

    I opened the Task Manager and try to complete the process associated with Adobe manually by selecting 'End process' and then try to install it, but nothing happened.
    I tried "clean boot", but none worked. I downloaded the "Adobe unistaller' official page and"the latest version of flash player"but it does not work!

    I also went on the Adobe Web site and it says this error message was due to the flash application, but I deleted all the files in and still nothing.

    I have firefox.

    I suggest you to check with Adobe on this point, its something specific request.

  • Only one size of paper in the printer settings

    I have a printer OKI C5100 when I go into its properties it only shows the size of A4 paper.  I tried to do a custom papersize of 8.5 x 11, but it will not print to it and generates an error.   I use the same driver that uses another user on a similar computer and shows them all standard paper sizes.   I tried emailing help OKI, but got no response.

    Anyone have any ideas on how to get the printer to display all standard paper sizes.  Currently, I'll have to start Virtual XP and print it from there so he could work right.

    I downloaded the driver and installed. I can confirm that only one paper size appears in the list. As you said, there's a place to specify a size custom; However, I can neither confirm nor deny the generation of a printing error, when it is used because I don't actually have the connected printer.

    I checked the specifications of the printer that I could find online. The printer uses GDI (windows Graphics Device Interface) for printing. (These printers are sometimes called 'printers based on the host windows or "Windows printing system"). This makes it difficult to find a driver for a printer that is emulated. His language native printer is PCL or Postscript. On the other hand, the C5400 is 5th PCL compatible 5th HP PCL driver would be a good game - but not for the C5100.

  • Reinstall - "only one instance of this application can run.

    I had to uninstall Adobe Reader a few months back and since then have been unable to reinstall. I get through the first couple download and click Yes to 'allow the following program to make changes to this computer', but then everything closes its doors, and sometimes I have the box "that only one instance of this application can launch" pop up. I have googled this error message and have spent hours trying each end on the way to solve the issue on various forums but nothing works and I really need to be able to open a PDF file again. Thanks for any help you can provide.

    If you're running Windows (which we don't know), you can try to use this tool first remove all traces of your computer:

    http://labs.Adobe.com/downloads/acrobatcleaner.html

    Then you can download the complete player offline installer from

    http://get.Adobe.com/reader/Enterprise/

    After downloading, restart your computer and run the Setup program before anything else.

    any idea?
