Can't get Microphone to w

Hi,
I am going to be taking an online class very soon and I can't get the microphone to work. The class uses "Teamspeak" in order to communicate and this program IS working. I can hear other talking but they can't hear me. Im reasonibly sure that the mic is enabled and Ive tried all the Teamspeak settings but nothing gets the mic working.
Apperciate any help.
Using a new Audigy 2 ZS
Pentium 4 2.53G
Windows XP Home
Plenty of memory and RAM

Apex,
Sometimes the card can be hard to read so I wouldn't feel too bad about it. With the gold plated ends you only have the markings to go by and those can be hard to see.

Can not get microphone after privacy on ipad 2 on upgrade iOS 702 . What can i doe ? Thans

The above helped me find this solution:
do the following steps:
General > Restrictions > [scroll down to ] PRIVACY: > Microphone > Allow changes
Not: Settings > Privacy > Microphone
If you are installing an app like Soundhound, you will have to delete it then just reinstall it. The app then will ask you if it is "OK" to use the microphone. Push "yes". Then go back to the Settings app and follow the chain:
Settings > Privacy > Microphone > SoundHound push tab to the right until it turns green and you are set.

[SOLVED] Can't get microphone to work

Hi everyone, I'm trying to get my microphone to work so I can use Skype (which installed very easily btw). Headphone and speaker sound works fine. I know it's not a hardware issue because the mic works fine in Ubuntu 10.04 and Debian. My sound hardware is the onboard chip from my mobo: http://tinyurl.com/2d79c4d - a Realtek ALC888
I've unmuted both 'mic' and 'front mic' in alsamixer, but neither of them work when I try to record via arecord or Skype or vocaroo.
Can someone tell me what I'm doing wrong?
Various things I saw people post wrt to their own sound issues:

Can;t get microphone to work

Hello folks! I have a Hercules Dualpix Exchange Mic connected to my Lenovo Desktop. I have downloaded Skype and have run the visual test (which worked) and the microphone call test (which did not work). I am not very computer minded so I am not really sure what to do to correct the problem. I did a troubleshoot run on the Hercules Dualpix and the computer told me they could find no problem with the device. I have had Skype in the past and used this very same device. It had the same problem, but a visitor with more computer sense than myself fixed it.
Any suggestions?
Thx

I too have been fighting to get the microphone to work on Skype. The speakers work fine but people are unable to hear me when I answer. All settings are on so I am unsure as to what the problem is. I even purchased a new mic from Staples and it was the same problem so returned it and back to the original so it is not a faulty microphone. Any help would be appreciated as this is getting very frustrating. Thanks

Can't get creative hs-300 microphone headset to work(total newbie)

Alright, I'm not very experienced in this, and probably my computer that's set up right for this. But here goes
I've bought the creative hs-300 microphone headset so that I could talk with a friend of mine. But it won't work. I can easily hear him, but we both get an echo of what he's saying, like my microphone takes whatever I hear on my headphones and send it back to him.
Also, when I get a msn message while testing my microphone in the msn guide, it detects the sound as me talking into the microphone, and thinks everything is ok, which it obviously isn't.
I've also tried just about everything in controle panel -> sound settings, ticking only microphone in recording, but nothing seems to do the trick.
Some hardware info: ATI WDM Rage Theater Video placed on Sapphire Radeon 9600 Atlantis
The standard unit when selecting microphone and speaker in the guide to audio interaction is SigmaTel C-Major Audio.
Would appreciate any help that I can get, as I would really like for this to work.
Thanks.

I've just gottren really frusterated. I'm about ready to go back down to XP just to get this to work, I use my microphone for so many different things.

Satellite C660-18C - Can't get the microphone to work

So I couldnt get the microphone to work so I bought a new one. I also can not get this to work. I have tried everyway I can think of and it simply will not register any sound and yes the microphone is on and the volume is full.
Can someone please help me fix this? Its driving me crazy!

Hi belthazora,
Just to make sure we talk about an external microphone that you have connected to microphone jack and not internal one? I ask this because the notebook doesnt have internal microphone.
Anyway, if you use an external microphone make sure its listed in sound devices under recording tab. Can you see it there?
I would also recommend a sound driver update if it doesnt work. You can download all updates on official Toshiba page:

Can't get my microphones to work with SB Live 24 B

Just got a new Dell PC, and selected the SoundBlaster Li've! 24 bit sound card. Have tried 4 different microphones, and can barely get anything on the windows Sound Recorder. I mean, I almost have to yell. I have tried powered mics, new batteries, and they all record at the same very low level. I think I have exhausted all options in the software settings, so it seems to be a matter of equipment compatablility. Does anyone have any suggestions on what type mics would work better?
thanks, Mike

Hello. I just purchased an MSI Diamond P4 SLI motherboard, that has the SB Li've 24 Bit intergrated on the motherboard. I too am experiencing the exact same problem. The input level for the mic is extremely low. I have to practically yell to get anything at all. I have already, updated drivers, checked to make sure that mic was my selected input device. Checked +20 mic boost, set all recording levels to high. Ensured that the correct device was chosing for recording. I can use sound recorded and actually record my voice. However the recording volume is extremely low. This MIC is nothing fancy, just an $8.00 mic that works absolutely fine on my Audigy Gamer sound card in another computer. So I know the mic is fine. I have gone over every setting I can find at least 0 times and I can't find a reason for the mic recording volume to be so low.Please help.. Thanks

Logitech replaced my H600 wireless headphones after they were unable to overcome the problem.

Help... I can not get my microphone to work

Help.... I can NOT get my microphone to work with my Blaster X-Fi XtremeGamer Fatal1ty Professional card. When I plug it in and test it (in either Configure Speech Recoginition - Windows Vista / or in Counter-Strike Source, Test Microphone Button under the game options) both indicate that the system is not receiving any sound. However, both the speakers (5.1) and headphones work fine. I am using a Plantronics headset.
I am not sure what I am doing wrong. Below are my complete system specifications. Let me know what additional information you need, if any.

Hey there tjbliven,
It sounds like you are not able to use the dictation feature of iOS 8, becuase the microphone icon is missing. It seems to me like Siri may be turned off, which would cause the icon to not be there:
Siri settings - iPhone
To set options for Siri, go to Settings > General > Siri. Options include:
Turning Siri on or off
That should get the dictation feature back for you.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling
