Y550 seeing a red out of plug headphones

OK, so I just installed an SSD in my Ideapad Y550. But for some reason, there is now a red light coming out of the headphone jack. It lights up to mid-way through the Windows boot process. I even put in the old hard drive to make sure I wasn't crazy, and it wasn't there. To make it work fine with a normal HARD drive, but not with an SSD. I called Lenovo technical support but got a bull * beep * "its there so you can find the plug in the dark ' response. I thought it necessary, maybe it was a BIOS update, but there is no... No idea on the light?

I can't believe it but it worked! I installed the latest sound drivers and the red light is all gone! Thanks a bunch!

  • Can't U330 digital out via the headphone jack S/PDIF

    I think the S/PDIF and headset share the same taken green headphones 3.5 mm, right?

    I use Onkyo HT-S3100 Home Theater.
    http://www.Intl.Onkyo.com/products/system_components/home_theater/HT-S3100/index.html
    It works very well with onboard SoundMAX HD v5.10.1.6310 10/09/2007 on XP Pro SP3 32-bit.
    Connected through the RCA coaxial port.

    On my U330 Laptop speakers built-in and headphones work fine.
    It's Realtek ALC269 v2.32 6.0.1.5928 on Win7 (7600) Pro 32-bit.

    I plugged in the cable, open Realtek HD Audio Manager, 3.5 mm tab / RCA (AV) digital output, click on set the default device.
    Then I started to play in Winamp, no noise (and no noise) fate of built-in computer speakers and my Home Theater.
    The bar green indicators have been posted to the Volume Meter - Realtek Digital Output and also in playback devices (Realtek Digital Output) too.

    I have also tried using S/PDIF on XP Pro SP3 32-bit (driver of the Lenovo Web site), but still have no sound from U330.

    Does anyone have a solution? I bought U330 because she has out digital S/PDIF.
    Thank you very much and sorry for my English.

    I think it's optical S/PDIF when you put a 3.5 mm plug to halfway in you see a red light? At least, I think that its approach, I took a gamble and just ordered this:

    Once I get it I'll use it to connect to my Onkyo TX-SR506 via Toslink and post to tell you if it worked or not.

  • MacBook Pro sound stops once the connection when plugged headphones

    http://support.Apple.com/kb/TS1574 Troubleshooting for any audio speakers on Macs


    Trick/Tip: Open GarageBand if installed then, open a program (optional).

    Quit out of the app from GarageBand.

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

    Repair Mac mysteriously mute

    The background on the issue, is that there is a switch small sensor inside the plug headphones. When you insert a headphone jack, the sensor includes what is what and changes the setting of audio output for headphones. If you insert a jack for digital audio output, the unit switches to digital output. When you completely remove the plug, it should read the internal speakers.

    The spirits tell me that there is a very good chance that you recently had something hostage in this port, a set of headphones or a cable leading to powered speakers, for example. When you remove the plug, something in the port have prevented triggering sensor properly. That's why you see Digital Out instead of the internal speakers.

    The solution is to force the sensor to do its job. The safest way to do this is to simply run a plug in and out of the port, a few times. A large part of the time, this takes care of the problem by triggering sensor correctly. If this does not work, there may be dirt in the port. Before moving on to more invasive techniques, get a can of compressed air, plug the small tube which corresponds to the nozzle and the breath to air a few shots in the lane. With a little luck, should dislodge dirt and the port will operate as it should.

    If this does not work, find a swab to foam tip that fits (electronics stores generally carry), dip it in rubbing alcohol and insert gently into the helmet in an attempt to wipe any tenacious dirt. I recommend foam rather than cotton fleece because the variety of cotton could leave the son behind. (This same technique works well with the bad conduct of ports from headphone output on devices such as iOS devices).

    It is possible that dirt has nothing to do with it. On the contrary, it may be that the switch should just a subtle help. If a socket or a buffer does not work, I have heard people resetting successfully with a deft poke with a toothpick.

    Hi all

    I just want to know if there is no solution to see System.out.println.

    I use neither Eclipse nor BlackBerry JDE for my development.

    I have my jar, jad files. I convert my jar file using the CAP tool. The .cod files are generated.

    I start the trainer. Now I have 2 windows: Windows Simulor and the output (see picture).

    Then I load my .cod files. But I see not all System.out.println ("...") in the output windows.

    How can I see these System.out.println ("...")?

  • No control of monitoring Audio level with plug headphones

    Hey everybody,

    Thanks in advance for any help that anyone can give me.

    I use first Pro CC 8.1 and I can't use the volume on my system to adjust the level of the headphone output. If I adjust the volume on the keyboard or system preference I get full volume out of Premiere Pro. Even if it is defined on the system to volume 0, I get the full output through the headphones. Interestingly enough my USB speakers are controllable all simply not the headphones.

    Any suggestions?

    Do you use a headset or speaker-out jack for headphones, rather that the speakers are connected to the USB port? I don't know if you are a Mac/Pc, but in Windows, each output "type"... USB, taken from the front rear, front taken etc. is a different control section in the system software. In a Pc, will gets Panel-> sounds (or right click on the speaker in the "sandbox" on the menu bar, and then clicking on 'Reading devices' or 'Sounds') you a box with all outputs listed... and you can work from there.

    Or... could be even faster... right click on the speaker icon down right in the start bar again, and then click "Volume Control Options"... click on helmet so he had a check mark. Now... to redefine your headphones, on the "speaker" icon... "Open volume Mixer"... and your headset should appear there is something you can control.

    I guess that Mac would have something similar...

  • I have no sound coming out of my macbook pro and see a red light in the hole of the listener.

    I do not have its coming out of my macbook pro os x 10.8.1 but if an earphone is connected I hear the sound and there is a red light through the matter of earphone. What is happening to you can help me?

    The red light of the headset jack means the MacBook Pro thinking that an optical audio cable is plugged into the port. Try to have disconnected and reconnected a headphone plug into the port several times. There is a tiny sensor inside the port that determines if the port is operating in analog or optical mode. Something similar by plugging should trigger the sensor and restore the analog signal.

    If you don't feel capable in doing so the folks at Apple Genius Bar will be able to help.

  • Yoga 2 Pro: plugged headphones problem

    Alrighty, I have a lenovo yoga 2 pro and I recently noticed something really weird. Whenever I plug my headphones on one side (left side) will play the music louder than the other side. At first, I thought that it was my helmet but, I tried my helmet on my iPhone and it worked perfectly. Any suggestion guys? I'm 100% sure that my helmet is not broken. I tried with several other devices. Another thing, I noticed, (haha actually typing this out) when I unplug the headphones, it seems that the music I play comes mainly from the right side (right speaker). Suggestions or simply do I ship my Lenovo Yoga since it is still under warranty? Thank you guys!

  • How to use HDMI and plug headphones at the same time?

    I'm running to a HDMI projector (via a HDMI-DVI adapter) for video and Composite (red & white RCA) using the socket for headphones and a splitter cable to a receiver of older Theater-in-a-box type for audio. But when I plug the HDMI, the headset turns off - no sound. I've seen people describe the ways to solve this problem for older versions of Windows, but I have Windows 8 and I'm unable to find. Thank you

    Michel,

    Apparently, it is not possible to output sound via the HDMI and the headphone jack at the same time.  But if you want to watch the video via HDMI and listen via the headset follow these steps:
    Right click on the speaker icon in the task bar > left, click playback devices > right-click on HDMI > disable.
    It works for me.

  • X 360 spectrum: spectrum HP x 360 with Ubuntu: plug headphones is not turn off speaker

    Hiya,

    I just installed Ubuntu (Willy Werewolf) on my HP spectrum - most of the stuff worked right away, and I'm super happy with it. My biggest problem I've been struggling with is the sound: speakers are working perfectly, however when I plug in my headphones, sound is read through both speakers and headphones.

    I checked the levels in the mixer and the system is noticed when the headphones are plugged and turns down the speakers correctly (as in alsamixer) channel - it's just that seems to have no effect on the physical hardware. If I change the helmet, that the effects of the volume in the speakers and headphones.

    What is interesting, is that, when the headphones are connected, the speakers disappear in fact from the control panel and console announcements mark as "unavailiable. As the system seems to be doing things right from the software point of view, I guess that's maybe a driver issue?

    If anyone has seen anything like this before, any help would be appreciated.

    Thanks in advance

    Also the small LED F6 lights when I cut more, but I can't live without that I don't really like (but if anyone knows an easy way to disable this market / stop via the comand line, I get a script to do).

    Thanks for your help Hüffer, I finally found the issue myself.  This has proved to be a problem with the map pins (two or three pins speaker have been put to use the headphone output rather than the speaker output).

    If anyone has this problem, I used tool HDA-Analysier of ALSA to debug it and make the required changes pinmap. I fixed the problem by changing the following:

    0 x 17 to Audio output 0 x 11
    0x1D to Audio output 0 x 11

  • Satellite C855 - no sound when plugged headphones

    Hi all

    I hope someone can help me.

    I had my C855 Satellite - part 2F3 no: PSCBWE-0H600NEN since April and have used my headpones in it several times and it worked fine.

    I used this morning and he was working then suddenly stopped, whenever I try and play something say I can hear music sometimes, it seems not complete but always singing to music can never be heard or sounds like he's under the sea and all deformed.

    This also happens if I watch something on Youtube if there is music on the vid I am I've heard that, but not the language in the video. can someone please help me resolve this issue.

    My speakers when headphones are connected work well, I'm heading what I shouldn't...

    Thanks in advance for help you

    Hello

    I m not very well why this happens only to the connected headphones but from my point of view, this looks like some sort of sound profile was selected. something similar to karaoke etc.

    The sound chip seems to be Realtek. Therefore the DD Realtek Audio Manager should be preinstalled on your laptop.
    You should find it in Control Panel-> Realtek HD audio manager.

    I recommend you plug in headphones and check the sound profiles of the Realtek HD audio Manager.
    Maybe something has been chosen which affects the audio output through headphones.

  • Y510P problems with plug headphones

    Hello. Unfortunately, this is my first post on the forums of Lenovo.

    I bought Ideapad Y510P this week and here I first problem with it. This is a new computer, was only transported in the car, laid flat in his box. Today was the first day I tried connect headset.

    When I plug them in at bottom right part just works. The left side is all silent. When I try to hook them up slowly, only left side works until I plug them all way in and only the right side then gives sound.

    When I plug my headphones to halfway in (very difficult to achieve and the plug won't stay in all), both parties give sound properly.

    Tried it with 3 different working pairs of headphones.

    Check all the drivers (Realtek HD Audio) and it works. The work of speakers, wonderfully, only the headphone gives me problems.

    What could be wrong?

    I must say that I was pretty desperate.
    The laptop was taken instead I bought in and replaced by a new because it was within a week of purchase.

    The service said it was a problem "integrated", coming from the product being badly done.
    I wish I have a better solution for the Rangers, but the subject is now ready to be closed that I have a new thing.

  • installation does not see the printer when I plug

    I have a printer HP LaserJet, 1006 running on a Windows XP 32 - bit attached to a USB1 port system. I have no USB2 ports. The printer works fine, but the drivers are up to date. I downloaded the file (hp_LJ_P1005_P1505_Full_Solution_ROW.exe) and when I run it, and it gets to the point where it tells me to connect my printer, I plug in and turn on and nothing happens. Apparently the installer does not see when I turn on my printer. The problem would be that it is plugged into the port of USB1 and if so what do about it?

    Sorry must have misread your first message.  Before trying to reinstall the software, make sure that the printer and the old software is uninstalled.  The installer can be easily confused by older facilities, in order to ensure that those who are cleaned before installing the latest orders.  Hope that helps.
