Can't Hear Microphone

Iv'e got this little microphone I plugged into my computer, and in the sound section of my system preferences, it says that it is plugged in but I can't hear anything. Is there something else I need to do to make this work?

Oh and it's plugged in through my iMic.

I'm sure you have checked, but make sure your mute button on the keyboard is not on , also check that you haven't touched the space bar during a call as that mutes it.
Check your settings in Skype>Preferences, Audio/Video tab. Here's what mine look like:

My microphone does not appear to be working, people can not hear me on Skype.

Can't hear the microphone

Hi, I purchased a Speed Link USB microphone (http://www.play.com/PC/PCs/-/676/883/-/5983672/SPEEDLINK-SL-8709-Pure-Voice-Micr ophone-II-USB/Product.html?searchtype=genre). In the system properties, the device is recognised and when I speak into it, the volume display changes accordingly. However, I can't hear my voice through the headphone output. I am able to hear other audio through the headphone output, such as music from iTunes.
This device also has output, and I can hear output through this device, just can't hear input.
Any ideas?
Cheers
Robbie

I'm using a mic that is pluged in to an ozonic firewire Audio inter. I currently can't hear my voice through my phones but it does record, all this using GB.
Select the track and turn on "Monitor" in the right column of Garage Band.

4s microphone has always malfunctioned (people can't hear me) for first 10 seconds of outgoing phone calls. I've synched w healthy Macbook Pro, replaced SIM cards, replaced iPhone 4s, called Applecare (no mic issue admitted). OS problem?

4s microphone has malfunctioned on most outgoing calls for many months. People can't hear me for first 10 seconds of outgoing phone calls. I've synched w healthy Macbook Pro, replaced SIM cards, replaced iPhone 4s when Apple Store thought it was probably a hardware problem, called Applecare (no mic issue admitted). OS problem??? I think so! [Possible] good news: for the past 2 days, since updating to 5.1.1, no one has reported problems hearing me!
I'm concerned Applecare folks did not admit to me that so many other 4s users also has malfunctioning mics.

Why would that even matter?
The device obviously has a hardware issue and is under warranty, take it to Apple for replacement and move on with life. No reason to make things difficult.

I can't hear anything on my new itunes microphones plugged into my toshiba

I can't hear anything why not, I tried all the stuff I thought I needed to try, like going to the sound thing on operating system and taking it off mute, and my diamond is moving, just no sound comes through, it may be a toshiba thing,

Do you mean the headphones are plugged into your toshiba?

Can't hear recorded sound during video playback

I take a lot of videos of my kids. I have noticed lately that the volume is low or muffled...you can't hear what is being said even if they are screaming 6 inches away. I thought maybe something had gotten into the microphone, etc. I recorded a voice memo and on playback i could hear what was recorded just fine at a normal level. Now once I tried to record a video of my kids talking, it played back so low that i can't hear anything and that is with the volume turned wide open. Not really sure what this issue could be but if the volume works fine on voice memo wouldn't it work the same on video playback?

Iphone 5s - siri can not hear me

I Have troubles with Siri and the keyboard microphone. Siri can not hear me and it is not possible to dictate any text via the keyboard. Both functions are working fine when I use a external headphone with microphone. The voice memo app is working correctly, so I don't think it is a hardware problem. I checked all siri settings and they seem okay. Voice feedback is not on handsfree but on always. Does anybody know how to fix this problem? I have the feeling the iPhone isfor these functions expecting audio input from annexternal source in stead of the build in microphones. Does anybody have an idea to solve this problem?

Well, that's a new comman issue comes up with IOS 8.3 version. Before 8.3 IOS version Siri were only available in some languages, however, after 8.3 release many languages are supported.
Even if you enable Siri > General > Settings.. still respond your voice.
No need to try to troubleshooting device - it will not solve your problem. You have to restore your iPhone and then setup as a new device. That's solution.
May I ask you to tell me if you siri in English ?

IChat Can be heard and watched, I can Watch but I can not Hear

Hi iChat Forum,
I'm new into the Mac world environment with a recent out of the box MacBook Pro that I just recently received three weeks ago. One of the main concerns that I would like to share with you is Video Conferencing with a PC AIM user, which I think this deserve some sort of investigation or if you have any suggestion that I could do to solve the problem I really, really would appreciate it.
Let me tell you my story:
On me side, I'm in UK based with:
- A New MacBook Pro, No modification to any settings.
- Firewall, I checked settings and it is off.
- BT Voyayer2091-B7 Wireless ADSL Router (Works Great), high speed.
- Setup Account for iChat on AIM network
Other End, My Wife based in Mexico with:
- Dell Latitud D810 Intel Prowireless, Windows XP SP2 (1.8GHZ, 2MB Memory), No internal microphone integrated.
- Ethernet Broadband connection, high speed.
- Webcam PCL-300K connected trough a USB port with Microphone.
- Setup account for iChat on AIM network
We followed the recomended setting described by this two sources:
http://www.mvldesign.com/videoconferencetutorial.html
and
http://www.ralphjohnsuk.dsl.pipex.com/index.html
Without too much hassle we were able to communicate each other, wow! this is great it works!! we though, with a little bit of delay in the frame display but voice very clear this was enough to keep in touch each other.
After three weeks of succesfull communication on both ends for long periods (1.5hrs) without any interruptions we were able to communicate, and it was four days ago that all of the sudden we starting having problems with our communication, starting primarly with receiving this message errors of not responding for an invitation from her after I accepted her request, the same situation in the otherway around. However after disconnecting and trying again it was only when she invited and I responded (Accepting) which finally we stablish communication again.
The Problem:
Now, even that we are able to stablish communication with Video in both ends, she CAN perfectly hear me and watch me, on the other hand I CAN see her but CAN NOT hear!!. At first we though it was a problem on the microphone, not switched on or some kind of sound setting that she might turned off, but NOT, everything was right.
Well, I refer back to the documentation described in the links above thinking that this may be an issue with the router on her END not Mine or firewall setting. She reinstalled everything and follow all the required steps to setup the setting of the firewall according to documentation and we tried again with the same results.
On my end as I mentioned previously I do not have any firewall set on in my Mac, the only bit that I have not check yet is the router configuration, and the reason is because I'm in a renting property that provide us with Broadband connection to internet that individual or different computers/pcs have access to. And because everything worked fine at first, I don't think there are setting there that are needed to be changed, no one has make anychanges to the router and everything works fine.
Our last resource for us was, thinking that it might be a problem with her microphone in her web cam, so we decided to use SKIPE instead, and surprise!, we could stablished only voice communication in both ends, so this proved that her Microphone setting are OK!, so our work around to our communication and Video problem is to open an iChat convertation for the VIDEO part, On my END and set the MUTE and Open, at the same time a SKIPE session for Audio only. This works pretty good and actually the frame rate of the display on boths ends accelarate a lot.
If I check connection Doctor on the iChat session I received 100% coomunication with video and 0% Voice, still I don't received Voice from her.
I know this is not the good solution and I'm still concern of what wen't wrong on that time that interrupted our communication without doing anything in the settings in both machines.
We decided not to spend more time anymore on this matter due to I'm very tire investigating what migh have been wrong, but as I said this is not the right solution something is wrong in my settings which does not allow me to pass through voice signals from her. I reached to the point to reinstall ichat but because this is NEW machine and don't want to incurr in the same sort of situation I had with Windows, that is why I personally switched to Mac.
Well have a happy reading and if you come up with some solution or you have come across with something similar and managed to soleved it I really would appreciate it you help or advice.
Kind regards
Alberto

Hi BetoMosqueda,
Welcome To The Apple Discussion Pages.
If your wife has unplugged her Mic at any time she will need to redo the tuning.
It is also possible that her video quality need to be reduced to allow the audio to come through.
You should start a chat.
At her end she should see your incoming video is in one of two tabs.
She should click on the rear tab which will come to the front and show her preview.
A small icon should appear to the right of the tab.
She should click on this to bring up a slider.
Sliding this to the left will reduce her video quality.
At this point this will allow the processor at her end to produce new frames faster which means her pic to you will smooth out a bit.
If you open the Connection Doctor from the Video menu you will see the frame rate and Bitrate go up.
As the slider gets moved further to the left you should get Audio.

Every time I make a call or I'm receiving a call my phone is extremely static i can't hear the person on the other line and the person on the other line cannot hear anything They say that they hear a lot of static now my videos when I play a video on YouT

Every time I make a call or I'm receiving a call my phone is extremely static i can't hear the person on the other line and the person on the other line cannot hear anything They say that they hear a lot of static now my videos when I play a video on YouTube for instance works just fine Siri works just fine. I can't make a call or receive a call whatsoever because all I hear is static and I haven't dropped the phone in water nothing has really happened this literally happened overnight

This is a wireless carrier issue. The fact that the speaker & microphone work properly for other apps is a great indicator that your device is fine.
Contact your wireless carrier about your call quality issue.

When making a call, I can't hear the person I am calling, but they can hear me. How do I fix this problem?

Hey guys,
I can play music and hear it just fine, with or without headphones. When I press on the keypad I can hear the noise it makes, I can hear calls with my headphones plugged in, or when the speaker option is on, however, unless this happens, I can't hear the person I am on the phone with.
I've tried restarting, resetting, earasing all content, and restoring it with iTunes and that didn't work.
I've tried cleaning the ports with a toothbrush, or pressing gently on the microphone and that didn't work.
I've tried calling with the headphone on, and taking them off in the middle of the call and that didn't work either.
I am currently outside of the US so I can't go to an Apple store, so I am wondering if any of you guys have been succesful at solving this problem. Your help is much appreciated
Thanks again,

If you can listen to the other person on loud speaker, means your earpeice got damaged.
If you have warranty (1 year is basic, upto 3yrs if you bought an extended apple care), you can take your iphone to any apple store in the world for a free repair, yes, apple warranties are international.
But usually they replace it with another new phone.
So make sure you update your phone and backup everything on your itunes.
Even if you're ot of warranty, you can get it fixed from apple by paying extra.
For now you have to use headphone or loud speaker
Goodluck
