What is a USB audio device and a Bluetooth HID device?

What is the difference between a USB audio device and a Bluetooth HID device? Is there a difference? Different connection?

My desktop computer shows the keyboard and mouse connections wireless in both places. I thought that I had to use the receiver provided with the mmouse and keyboard kit when I bought it and now I see it installed in two locations in the Device Manager. What does that mean?

Hi jimafia,

Let's start first of all, make sure you have software in place just in case you need more later.

If they are the same exact drivers, it is possible that they have been installed twice, but the biggest problem is how much of usb devices you have connected?

You can check and see when they have been installed in the properties for each driver.

  • Generic USB Audio device drivers won't load

    I use a lenovo x 301.

    I am trying to connect to a series of musical instruments (keyboards and microsphones) to my laptop, nothing helps. Here are the relevant facts:

    -Devices all work on 6 other machines Windows 7 from a variety of types
    -The devices all use drivers generic "USB Audio Device". There is no specific drivers for these devices.
    -My USB seems to work - so the USB ports are mainly functional.
    -The friendly names of the devices are all identified
    -The .sys and .dll files that are used on the other 6 machines are present on the X 301
    -When I go into the Device Manager and try to manually choose the "USB Audio Device" driver - it is not available. I spent hours looking for it:-)

    I'm puzzled.

    Help :-(

    For any problem of security on NTFS drives:
    It is perhaps part of the problem.
    1. are you an administrator user
    2. set the permissions on your OS partition (such as drive C :) for all THAT YOU ARE Full
    ADMINISTRATORS/USERS/ComputerName/SYSTEM/all the WORLD (Finally, what you think you are)
    There is also maybe something like OWNER who you give special permissions and not full
    You must close the properties after each major change and then reopen to contunue
    Since you've done ADMINISTRATORS be the OWNER, this means you have FULL and SPECIAL permissions
    for all ADMINISTRATORS, who is the most possible freedom that I know.
    3. MAKING the OWNER of Admininstrators everything to implement (some things are still banned it seems)
    4. optionally run chech disc after that
    5. If everything starts after closing you can continue, but until you
    are able to stop cold iron and restart in normal mode from MSCONFIG
    you are experiencing serious problems that should be fixed first.

    TO THE PROBLEM OF USB:
    IT WAS DEFINITELY MY PROBLEM.
    NOTE: REMOVE ANY HARDWARE PLUGGED YOUR USB PORTS-CURRENT TEMP STUFF
    6. If you can't get the appropriate to load drivers or no response when you try to plud in USB cameras or MP3 players do the following
    A. GO TO THE VARIOUS WINDOWS FOLDERS;  INF (can be hidden); System32 AND SYSWOW64 (GOT A 64-bit system)
    B. RENAME all FILES THAT START WITH wpdxxxxx.inf/.pnf/.exe/.dll/.* in [CREDITS]. [GENERIC]. OLD
    in this way, you save the old files without destroying them (keep it forever or until of course you can remove/kill them)
    7. turn OFF your SYSTEM, wait 15 to 30 seconds
    8. RESTART your system (power on)
    9. WAIT UNTIL COMPLETELY AT THE START OF THE SYSTEM (DISK ACTIVITY LIGHT EXTIGUISHES)
    THIS may take several minutes like 10 or 15 minutes, and then you just see some small flashes of your player
    10. CONNECT any free USB port of your removiable disk devices
    11. you should now get a response from windows as if it were the first time you ever plugged

    NOTE: This was the only way I could solve this problem after days of playing with this problem
    There is no solution given by microsoft itself that will fix this error
    If this does not work for you the only solution I can think of will be to
    restore your system before the problem or reinstall the whole OS in the
    same Partition without disturbing one of your other partititions.

    IT seems to me that windows has installed a separate for each device WPD driver that connect
    USB and explains why all the various WPD files. So much happens there are programmers of knowledge
    to set correctly this question and thay simply not create decent error messages that will help
    You can set these things as a layman.

  • I have a problem with finding a PnP USB audio device when you search for available audio devices.

    Hello.

    I am building an application that can find a PnP USB audio device and play a tone if the device is connected. I am able to search audio devices using "Sound Device Info.vi" of the lvsound2.llb that comes with labview.

    The vi can find the USB device in good conditions, but there are problems - I'll try to describe 2 scenarios.

    1. the USB device is connected before 'Sound Device Info.vi' is called for the first time.

    In this case, the program can find the USB device. If I unplug it, the device disappears from the list of found audio devices. If I reconnect to the same USB port, it reappears in the list. It's all good.

    If I reconnect it however a new USB port, the device is not found. This is not good.

    2. the USB devices is not connected when 'Sound Device Info.vi' is called for the first time.

    "Sound Device Info.vi" is not able to find the device. Disconnect and reconnect does not make a difference.

    I'm under labview 2012 on windows 7.

    I am running the application as an exe to build.

    I call 'Sound Device Info.vi' as a 'call for reference"and the reference is closed between calls to the vi. I was hoping this would unload the dll used in "Sound Device Info.vi" and would solve the problem, but it didn't.

    Is there a way to reset the information usb labview during execution?

    Concerning

    Stephan.

    Hey Stephan.

    The sounds screws require a DLL located in:

    C:\Program Files (x 86) \National Instruments\LabVIEW 2012\resource\lvsound2.dll

    Internally, LabVIEW uses the DirectX API to enumerate devices. The one caveat is that probe us for devices when loading the DLL. We probe not later. So that it works for Bluetooth, USB, fire wire, etc. devices that can be inserted or removed at any time, you control somehow when this DLL charge and discharge. To do this, please see the following document:

    Dynamically that I can load and unload a DLL in LabVIEW?

  • Satellite A100 and USB audio device problem

    I bought "toneport ux2 line6" and it does not work with my computer laptop (dual core 1, 73GHz, 1 GB ram, Windows Vista).

    The problem is when I listen to music through this device, it looks I would look scratched CD, from time to time that there is a short interruption. The same thing happens when I'm with gearbox (software that allow you to play the electric guitar using audio device). I checked everything, including change Windows XP OS.

    I have the latest drivers for the port of your (compatible vista), I downloaded 3.5 mechanism, only toneport is connected to my computer, I have disabled all installations flashing in vista, power management is scheduled for high performance. I disable the sound card. I checked my cell phone with line6 monkey and it says everything is ok. I checked the audio device on my friend's Office, and it works well.

    I desperately need help.

    Hello Marcin

    In my opinion, you must be sure your laptop running fine and according to your assignment I do not here no problem.

    So in your case you have problem with some additional equipment or third party software. Am I wrong? If there is a problem I see no reason to seek the solution with Toshiba. You should contact the manufacturers of all the devices and software that you use. They should have enough experience with own products and they should offer good support in troubleshooting.

  • What to do if "audio device is not set as default" and I can not burn CD?

    Hello whistles!

    Love of goodness, my CD drive was not capable of writing to CD or to play, since the day that I bought my computer (5 years ago)!  The last time I tried to install a program from a CD, which works well.  I tried to troubleshoot and repair several times, without success, including downloading the new drivers.  MS FixIt Center was no help either (no surprise).

    And frankly, because I have more than one, I do not yet know what program to try to use it to record CDs, once the problem is resolved! I have Windows Media Player, Sonic Digital Media, Windows Digital Media Enhancer, Media Center (which I hate!), AShampoo Burning Studio (which I downloaded at any given time) and OverDrive Media Console!

    I have a HP Pavilion dual core 64-bit processor, run Win XP Media Center version 2002, Service Pack 3, Office 2007 Pro.

    Any assistance would be MUCH appreciated!  And if you need more information. in order to make sound suggestions, please let me know before you answer (often when I ask for help here, I receive replies that are not applicable to my problem).

    Hi all

    I have this laptop that comes with Windows 8 pre - set up and I have to install Windows 7 pro on this subject.

    I noticed that this laptop has only support for Windows 8 drivers in the downloads section, but I do not have a choice and just went forward to install windows 7 pro on this subject.

    INstallation has been through enough most of the pilots in the section downloads for this model can be used on Windows 7 pro, but the only ones that do not work are namely the bluetooth, wifi and USB 3.0 drivers.

    That said, anyone has any info on what make and model exact wifi/bluetooth/usb3 chipsets are used on this model of laptop, so I can find the respective OEMs drivers instead?

    Thanks in advance.

    Best regards

    Hi, Maverick:

    I think the W7 x 64 drivers for this model should work on yours. You will find the controller driver USB 3.0 chipset section.

    If you have not installed the chipset installation utility, I recommend that you first install and restart.

    DO NOT USE THE BIOS FILES

    Go to Device Manager and view the ID of the hardware for the network controller needing drivers.

    Is your wireless card.

    Once I know what model of wireless card you have, then you install the corresponding BT software and the driver for it.

  • Headset (headphones and microphone) USB - this device cannot start - Code 10

    Hello

    I just bought a USB headset today and tried to use it.  I had a driver error message when first plugged in.  The help system has proved to be unnecessary.

    After doing some research on this forum, I checked the Device Manager and found that the indicatses of properties of USB audio device "this device cannot start. (Code 10) ".  Forum entries suggests that a lot of people have similar problems.

    Mine is a new installation of 64-bit Windows 7 on a new hard drive, but on older hardware of the PC - Asus A8N SLI Premium.  Someone at - it had suggestions as to the resolution of the problem.  Note that a normal headset worked fine yesterday (but I broke it) plugged into the jack Sockets, but I wanted to use a USB headset to avoid having to continue to go to the back of the computer to replace my system 2.1 speakers.

    Thank you

    Hello

    The Code 10 error code is generated when the Device Manager has not enough information or error that spread upwards by device drivers is not recognized by Device Manager. In addition, this error may occur if one of the pilots who needs the unit does not start. If multiple drivers are used by a particular device, it can be difficult to determine which failed.

  • Satellite M40: USB Audio does not work properly in ACPI mode

    Hi all
    I just bought a laptop Satellite M40 whose purpose is to be used as a portable audio system.
    For this, the USB audio devices are an excellent solution.

    Unfortunately, although it was working properly when recording (sound is perfect with all devices compatible USB Audio, I have tested), there is a problem in reading that I had a lot of clicks and POPs.

    After a lot of research trying and google, I solved the problem by changing the computer ACPI PC Standard mode.
    This is a workaround.

    But this way, I don't remember what my status of battery, and my laptop does not shut down automatically.
    Actually, my laptop is no longer run as a laptop :(

    I suspect a very serious problem in a Toshiba components management. In particular, I wouldn't be surprised to be told that freeze the cords of some regular system of court management, and therefore the 10ms buffers audio USB fall in against the recess.

    This would be so much bother me if I were not part of the technical support team of the company that launches also a few new audio USB products who will not fail to work correctly with laptops.

    My question is:
    Is there a driver / updating bios that gets rid of this problem?
    If a person of Toshiba technical support to address this issue directly with me, I'd be happy to help, as I am personally and professionally concerned.

    Thanks in advance.

    [Edited by: admin]

    Hello

    I put t know what USB audio device you use, but most of the USB audio devices cannot use the USB power. These devices have need of an external power supply of A.C and especially this external power supplies are delivered with the USB audio device.

    Also, I read on some sites that the pop occurs sometimes due to non synchronicity of the modules different buffers or / and of the use of certain applications in parallel.

    The computer ACPI PC Standard mode change is one of the many solutions and proposals
    You can check some patches from Microsoft. Check if all updates from Microsoft are installed.
    Also change the performance options in the options of the system to adjust for best performance.
    Disable Windows messenger.
    Virtual memory should be set to custom size and initial size and maximum size must has the same value (ie. 512/512)
    In the system.ini should the vcache is also the same: MinFileCache = 16384, MaxFileCache = 16384
    Disable the peripherals such as scanner, printer.

    As you can see, these issues could occur on all computers (desktop and laptop) and it s is not a problem of Toshiba. Also, contact the manufacturer for support external audio device and detailed information.

    Good luck

    Here is my variation on the theme "no audio".

    This laptop was purchased in early July 2012 has worked well for a few days, then there was no audio output at all - no speakers or headphones via browser, iTunes or any other application.  In Device Manager, I noticed there are two separate features in the 'audio controllers, video and game.  We're "IDT high definition audio CODEC" and the other is simply "high definition Audio Device."

    I searched this forum and tried many suggestions, including the update of the BIOS, driver uninstall/re-install and restore drivers - no luck.  Sometimes I'd get audio, sometimes not.  Now I have disabled the "high definition Audio Device" and this seems to have solved the problem.  I was doing an audio output for the last 24 hours, even after sleep and restarts.

    My question is this: can I just uninstall the "high definition Audio Device?"   This seems to be the origin of the conflict.

    Thanks for your help.

    You have a great day too, Howard.
