Why does my sound not work?
So today I went to turn on my chromebook, but the sound was not working. Any suggestions?
Is this a good question?

Genius! Thank you, thank you, thank you.
Thank you so much!!! I thought I had broken the sound, but no! I'm so happy!!
thank you so much you helped so much i thought i was going to die thank you once again
this doesn't work on my chromebook and I am not happy :(
I did it and I cant believe it worked i was so surprised thank you so much.
No sound could be several things:
First: Check that the earphone/external plug is fully plugged in. Then go to the lower right hand corner, to the volume control and click on the arrow > and make sure that your device (headphones etc) is selected. If it just says input | output, make sure your Chromebook is charged. My audio buttons quit working and the volume bar stays to the left when my battery gets too low. Charge it up and then do a browser reset and a hard reset. (to do the browser reset, click the three bars in the upper right hand corner, go to settings>advanced settings >browser reset (at the bottom). Then hold the refresh button (looks like a circle with an arrow, usually the F3) and the power. This generally does the trick for me.

Thank you. Holding down the refresh button and the power button did the trick for me. Thank you for your help. None of the other ones worked for me!
i have a chrome book
I also have a chrome book
I clicked yes by accident and I need help because I tried everything and it still won't work and btw i'm a kid
The same thing happened to me where my top row keys wouldn't function, including the volume and brightness keys. I tried the shut down process, and it didn't work. When I checked settings and went to keyboard, I realized I had pressed "Treat top-row keys as function keys." After I unchecked it, all the keys worked again.

omg thank you this was the only one out of like 15 that worked
oml thank you so much for this! I checked settings and I didn't see the option "Treat top-row keys as function keys" and I got so annoyed but then I checked it again and saw the option. I said "Oml thank god." I am only 10 years old and I thought I broke my chromebook and my parents would have been so mad if I did, but thanks to you I realized I didn't. Thank you so much :)
yep my top row was set to function keys....which i still don't know how to use
Thanks so much...yep same thing happened to me...would never have figured it out without you. Thanks again!

if it is a windows 10 hp laptop than i think you should follow the steps that i told you just remove the old sound driver and restart the computer and update the driver check the playback device for more support contact hp http://www8.hp.com/us/en/contact-hp/supp... and make sure you have your windows updated and also check the driver that has been recent update . uninstall some critical updates can also help you . thanks

It worked for my sons laptop!!! I let him use my in the meantime now he doesn’t want to use his. Thank you!!!
If you are using a laptop computer with no external speakers connected, make sure the volume is turned up by using controls on the keyboard. They may buttons (as shown in the image to the right), or a secondary function of another key; generally indicated with blue text and activated by holding the Fn key at the same time.

I am on a Chromebook it does not have a pair of headphones
I have a pair of headphones and I had to unplug it and It worked
Go to the bottom right of your screen and click the section where it has your profile picture. You will see a variety of options, but on the second on up there is a sound bar. Click on the right arrow next to it, and choose " Speaker (Internal) " And "Microphone (Internal) "

I have a Chromebook and i was logged in to my account and my sound was not working so I logged in as guest and it worked probably because I installed a chrome app that did that.

My sound wasn’t working for me but it turns out my earbuds were broken. So I plugged in new earbuds and it worked great! If your sound isn’t working try different earbuds/headphones. I hope this helps!
