Why my sound notification system never works?

I have Windows 7 for a few years now, and although it has never bothered me, I am always curious about it and how it can be fixed. The 'balloon' that appear when Windows lets you know something (new updates available, safe to remove hardware, etc.) never beep. I even chose a different sound in a different directory and still sound never plays. It shows on all of my 32-bit and 64-bit computers. All are running Win 7 Ultimate. Is this something that does not work?

Hello

I had the same problem, but I managed to make it work. Here are the steps:
1. the open registry editor (on the keyboard key Win + R , then type "regedit")
2. in the registry editor, go to 'HKEY_CURRENT_USER, AppEvents, schemas, Explorer. Under explore you shouldn't see entry "SystemNotification", it is the next step.
3. right click on the Explorer-> New-> key and rename it to "SystemNotification".
4. right click on SystemNotification-> New-> key and rename it to "current".
5 left-click on .the, and in the right panel, you will see "(Default)" entry, double-click it.
6. in the value data stick "C:\Windows\media\Windows infobulle.wav" and click OK (!) Make sure there are Windows infobulle.wav file in the mentioned folder 'media').
That's all. It will work.

  • Why the iTunes syncing literally never work properly?

    Then, I use iTunes for years. I got an iPod for all about 7 or 8 years old (different models, generations, etc.) and iTunes has always been a problem, whenever I used it. I've been on different computers, I used different devices, everything. It's awful.

    Tonight, I went to sync my music on my iPod touch 5g, that I had gone through and deleted / deactivated a ton of music to make sure only what I wanted was on my iPod. I have 64 gb but more 14 000 songs, whereas about half of it fits both.

    I went to synchronize the new verified library (after change my settings to sync only checked songs) and he told me that I have 39 GB too music. I know it's wrong, because before synchronizing, it shows that I have 10 GB free.

    Thus, whereas iTunes has done this before, I have unsynced all my music, preparing to just sync all this after he deleted. He crossed the synchronization in about a minute, but still showed music and after checking my iPod, I had all my music again there.

    It syncs to add or delete music. This is ridiculous. At this rate I'll remove iTunes, burn my iPod and buy a small tablet with external storage via Micro SD for my music.

    So, I figured out how to synchronize. But now only some of the songs were synchronized. Miss me a ton of songs. They have a ring dotted beside them in the folder music of my camera, but the songs are playable in the iTunes library. I can't drag and drop songs into my iPod and sync does nothing.

    Seriously, iTunes must be the worst software to sync music on a device I've ever seen. Absolutely useless. Apple should take part of the money they steal children, buying iPhones and put it to make products and software that work. Just a thought.

  • 5.1 surround Sound speaker system does not work in Windows 7 Professional 64-bit edition

    My problem is about the same as other users who cannot get their surround sound speaker system to work properly in Windows 7.

    I have a subwoofer and 5 speakers (2 front, 2 rear, 1 for the centre).  Connection to the RealTek HD Audio embedded is simple, orange for the subwoofer, green for the front and black for the rear.

    Test the sound in Control Panel-> windows sound produces a sound on all channels and RealTek HD Audio Manager at the same time, which is the desired configuration.

    However, different applications use different channels.  IE and Firefox use the front channels, VLC/MediaPlayer uses the back.  3D games (that is to say WoW) through all channels.  In each case the subwoofer does not work.

    I tried to download the latest drivers on the motherboard (Gigabyte) manufacturers site.  I even tried the supplied RealTek drivers (even if on the Web from RealTek site which is NOT recommended).  I tried to connect the connectors of the subwoofer to the different takes (reversed black and green).

    I have experimented with the settings in RealTek HD Audio Manager and control panel-> windows Sound.  Nothing works.

    These exact same subwoofer and speakers worked perfectly well on Windows XP.

    I have 2 questions:

    one) has anyone resolved their 5.1 & Windows 7 problem something that I have not yet tried?

    (b) when will Microsoft take this issue seriously?  All Microsoft provided answers just repeat what everyone

    has already tried.

    First disconnect the cable 3 (orange, green and black) then click on Control Panel configuration-hardware and sound - Real tek HD audio manager - central tick, subwoofer and rear pair, front left and right and filling of speaker

    Then click on advance device settings.

    Select "perform front and reading of output devices back two different audio streams simultaneously" and give ok

    Plug all three pins one by one and select the appropriate option in the popup windows.

    That's all.

    You give enough information for me to get this working.   My system runs Win 7 X 64 Home Premium.   When I select 5.1 sound capacity side my 550 x Logitech speakers are not recognized.  If I select 7.1, which is the capacity of my chip Realtek chipset, I can get the two outside are activated as a "rear" speakers and can push the test tones to each of the four surrounding speakers and the combination of Center/bass via the Realtek driver.

    Regarding the "front and reading of output devices back two different audio streams at the same time" worries... I can't find this option.  There are at least two suppliers of 'control of the interfaces' assets on my system.  One is provided by RealTek, the other by Microsoft.  The access roads to these interfaces is roundabout and confusing, to say the least.

    Some compromises are in order in my humble OPINION.  I have my Pandora one stream play in an acceptable way in my small study.  Many of the source of sounds streamed to me are recorded in stereo or mono, I find myself hitting the 'matrix' on my Logitech X 550 button quite frequently.  Sometimes a more recent piece is delivered which actually looks Ok without the decoder "matrix".

    What I would really like to be able to do is to "reconfigure on the fly" between the built in speakers on my Acer Z3731 system USB bar ' All in One ' and my external Logitech X 550 popular with the ability for the presentation of "5.1 surround sound" through three sons.  When I try your procedure, I don't get separate recognition of each thread, as it is trendy and often end up with its 2.1 being eliminated in my 5.1 speakers, because somehow Microsoft has re-recognized the built-in USB port based his bar instead of the three rear wires plugged into the outlets provided by the manufacturer of the system.

    If there was ever separate 'Speakers' and 'Realtek' icons in the UI on my system, speakers are long gone and I can't get back them.  All I see is the Realtek driver.  I would like to see the two icons 'Speakers' different, I could mark "integrated 2.1" and "5.1 external '", in addition to the driver Realtek.»  How can I get these to reappear?

    Can anyone suggest a way to have two different sets of "speakers" recognized and identified in the Microsoft UI in addition to the Realtek driver?  If I could get because of this, I think that the driver would let me 'set as default' one or the other speaker set, and I 'software switching' capable of letting me choose the external speakers or integrated sound bar offers the sound.

  • Tactile B320 has never worked

    Just realized that my girls that B320 was supposed to with touch screen. It has never been there since day 1, but we assumed, that he was not part of the particular model, we bought. I reinstalled the drivers, nothing works.

    Any other person with this problem never managed to get their work and how?

    Hi Nedmundo,

    I checked the information that you send via PM and you have the following LCD module:

    LCD - AUO M215HW03 V1

    This does not indicate that it has a function touch that's why the touch screen has never worked. If you specifically ordered a model of touchscreen for your daughter, I recommend that you see the front desk to see if you have the correct unit (it should be here if your device is touch capable or not).

    Hope this helps

  • Why has my menu drop-down screen for notifications to stop working? The bottom screen will pull up but pull down is not. IPhone6

    Why don't my notification pulldown screen stopped working on my iphone 6?

    Hi Nomoitunes,

    I understand that you are not able to open the screen of Notifications on your iPhone 6.  This feature has never worked on your iPhone?  What iOS version are you running?

    To get notifications, you must be connected to a Wi - Fi or cellular network. If you do not get notifications for a specific application, try the following steps:

    1. Make sure that the application supports notifications. Go to settings > Notifications, select the application and ensure that Notifications are enabled, and 'Show in Notification Center' and "Show on lock screen" are enabled as well.
    2. Make sure that you are connected to your Apple ID on your iOS device. Go to settings > iTunes & App Stores and enter your Apple ID and password.
    3. Make sure you do not disturb is turned off. Go to settings > do not disturb and tap manual if it is enabled.

    If you are still unable to swipe down on the home screen to access Notifications, try to restart your iPhone.

    If the problem persists, go to settings > general > reset > reset all settings

    Source:

    Use the Notifications on your iPhone, iPad and iPod touch

    Take care

  • Windows 7 - audio system sometimes works and sometimes doesn't. Soundcard Question. Issue of the audio recording. Poor sound quality from the speakers.

    I connect on - the work of sound system very well.  Media player works fine.  The next time I log on - no sound system.  Everything is plugged, convenience store finds no problems, Media player goes through all the steps and looks that don't worry, still no sound.  I have download a fix for the VIA recommended by Dell Driver.  I did, and it still has the same problem.  I can close, reconnect, and then the sound will work.  Sometimes I have to close and log on twice in a row so he can launch.

    Can someone point me in the right direction to solve this problem?  I am working on a Dell Inspiron 546 AMD Athlon II x 2 215 2.70 GHz and 64-bit with 400 GB of RAM.  I installed Windows 7 but when I dug deeper into the service code for this machine which found at some point in time he had installed Vista.  This could be the same Vista to Windows 7 problem audio, everyone seems to have?  I bought this Staples announced new with Windows 7 as operating system.

    I did research on all forums and responses and am unable to check if I have a "sound card".  I'm not used with the terminology so even if I follow the Microsoft instructions to find the right place to check and see, I do not understand what I see when I'm there.  It is said: ATI high definition Audio Device and VIA High Definition Audio.  Is this to say that I have a sound card or I should get it a?  If I buy a sound card will it fix my audio problem?

    Even though I had my audio problem fixed, I was disappointed by the sound quality of the speakers on this new system up to date.  My speakers on my old computer (which lasted from Windows 98) were by far superior in sound quality.  I don't understand why they sound so crappy and barely louder, and when you show the to they have a rattle for them.  I tried plugging my old speakers on my new computer, but nothing happens.  My new speakers have a Plug and a USB port.  I don't know what is... why goal can not use my 'old'?

    Finally, I want to record my vinyl on discs and need a great sound system.  Any advice?

    I removed all the ATI Audio as suggested.  The result in the short term is that the audio quality is improved.  I no longer hear the "crackling" when the sound is turned on.  I'll answer more if the issue of audio (works) continues to be a problem because the fix.  If you don't hear from me, then please consider the problem solved and my thanks to you.

  • Tecra M2: sound system stops working after a while

    Hello

    I used my TECRA M2 a year without serious problems. A moth started it my problems with audio - after the start (no matter if via boot or wake up from hibernation) his (speakers) system is functioning normally. After a while (several tens of minutes, hours) sound system stops working (no sound from your speakers or headphones). No errors appear, but not sound. When you try to adjust the volume via the Windows icon on the bar the task CPU usage becomes very high.

    I decided to reinstall my M2 - the first attempt was clean install of WinXP SP2 standard support - sound problem has not changed. Today I decided to restore the system recovery CD, but the result is the same :-(

    Any idea? -I suppose that problem Council... Now, I made a mistake when entering - beeps system (such a beep as during startup) - interesting :-/

    Except sound problem - another strange thing - when I send my XP to restart in about 10% of the attempts he goes off and does not start. Starts normally after pressing power button...

    Any ideas would be much appreciated

    Looks like a hardware malfunction.
    Maybe it s caused by overheating.
    Check the cooling modules and try to clean it with the vacuum cleaner.
