Headphone mic not being reconised

So ive been having htis problem with my compute im am using the desktop version of skype but it wont reconise my headset mic the headsets are kunais wireless buti use the lead what gose into it so it dosnt be wireless if u get what i mean
it only pics up my laptop mic what really annoys me as my laptop mic is really bad and my headset mic is really good

i have the same problem with two of my ipod touches 2G and nano 4th generation, with my newly purchased headphone mic remote set. called the apple expert, he suggested me to reset them first, and if still not working then restore them to their original settings with itunes. and if still not working, then need to bring everything to any apple store to see an apple genius.
i reset them all. everything works fine only when plugging in the headphone set for the first time, then none of them detect the headphone set again.
restore them. everything work probably until i transferred music and videos back to all the ipods. now they sometime detect the headphone set and sometime they don't.
anyways, seems like there're some kind of software conflicts. so, i will bring all my ipods and the brand new headphone mic set to talk to an apple genius.
hope this help.

Ipod touch headphone mic not being detected.

I have an ipod touch 3G 32GB and I use the headphones that came with the product (they have a built in remote and microphone). I just bought the ipod touch, and as soon as i try to record some voice momos, my ipod touch tells me there is no microphone inserted, although the headphones (with the microphone and remote built in) have been inserted. Same happens when I try to call people on Skype. Somebody please help me.

Sound Blaster Z headphone/mic not working. I am sad :(

Hello I bought a Sound Blaster Z yesterday. I am running Windows 8.1
I have a Turtlebeach X12 headset and when I plug the mic/headphone jacks into the Sound Blaster Z I get no sound when swapping to headphones in the SB-Z control panel and also my microphone is not detected. I am using the latest drivers, I have disabled my on-board audio and uninstalled its drivers, and my X12 usb is plugged in for power. I also have double checked the connections from the headset to the SB-Z itself several times.
Sound comes out of my speaker setup and btw its crystal clear and I am extremely impressed with how much better the SB-Z sounds over onboard audio.
Thank you for help.

Hi KingCheese,

This is so that other forum members who might experience the same issue can be referred to this particular thread.

Headphone jack not working on new Macbook Pro what is causing this?

My 17 inch Macbook Pro is less than two weeks old. The headphone jack does not recognize the headphones about half the time. This occurs with several pairs of headphones and yes, they are ther right size. This is really frustrating on a brand new 3500 dollar machine. What is causing this? It almost seems as if the headphones cannot make contact due to the fact that the connection is too far recessed. I don't live near an Apple store so dealing with this is going to be a P.I.T.A. Anyone have any ideas on how I might fix this issue? Thanks!

Hi, and thanks for your reply. I didn't have a red light emitting from the jack. I had already checked in the sound preferences to make sure the settings were correct. The headphones were not being recognized. This was not working with several differing sets of headphones. I made a phone appt. with Applecare. The laptop PRAM was reset and it works. There is still a bit of a delay when I plug in the headphones before they are recognized and I do feel the port is just a bit "off" as the no headphones plug all the way in. They seem to just sit almost flush but, not quite. However, resetting it resolved the issue to a satifactory level. Applecare said the issue was that not enough power was getting to that function on my laptop. They gave me the case number and I can use it if I have any further problem when I take the laptop in with me to any Apple service center. I was quite satisfied with how this was handled by Apple and if I have anymore issues will follow up.
I love this laptop but, even though this is working now I do feel that port is somewhat recessed a bit much.
I also want to add that this is my first Mac and despite having had this issue I was extremely impressed with the Applecare call that I got to help resolve this. One of the reasons I went with a Mac was the reputation for service Apple has. I was fed up with Sony to the hilt. I was glad I went with this Mac despite the headphone issue because had I still been with Sony, I'd have been give a major run around to deal with this issue. So far, Apple has tried everything possible to help me with this and assured me should I have any further issue they will immediately resolve it or give me a new machine. WAY better than dealing with Sony! I do not regret going with this MAC headphone issue or not!

Win 8 - How to use StereoMix and Headphones Mic at the same time?

I am using Windows 8 64 bit and believe I may have an IDT driver problem.
I need to enable StereoMix and my Headphones Mic at the same time. I know this was previously possible with windows xp and windows 7.
What happens is If I enable either Headphones Mic (Logitech headphones with Mic) or StereoMix the other one becomes " current;ly unavailable" I cannot get them both to work together. I can get StereoMix and the Internal Mic to work together ( both enabled at the same time) but the sound quality is bad because the internal mic picks up noises from the PC. I need to have both my headphones mic and stereo mix enabled at the same time.
The driver I'm using is the one provided by HP with the laptop. It is called sp59620.exe
Would another IDT driver solve the problem? Can you think of another reason this is not working?
Here are my specs.
System Manufacturer/Model Number HP Pavillion G7-2251dx
OS Windows 8 64 bit
CPU AMD A-8 4500M
Memory 8 Gigabytes DDR3 sdram
Graphics Card Discrete ATI Radeon HD 7640G with 2 Gigs
Sound Card IDT Audio
Monitor(s) Displays 17.3
Screen Resolution 1600x900
If you cannot help, where else should I look? i have tried Windows and Microsoft forums and no one can give me an answer.
Thank you.

I have tried the instructions in that video and I cant get passed the very bad feedback i get when telling my recording device to Listen. His secone instruction from his notes here
["Right Click the Realtech HD audio device and set as default if its not already.
(note you may want to turn off any powered speakers you may have to prevent feedback.)
-Select the Recording Tab at the top of the window.
-Select the Stereo Mix device and set it to default if its not already.
-Right click and select Properties.
-Select the Listen Tab at the top of the window.
-Change the drop-down box to the entry for USB headset and check the Listen to this device checkbox.
-click ok to dismiss the window.
-Right click on the USB headset microphone device and select properties.
-Select the Listen Tab at the top of the window.
-Change the drop-down box to the entry for the Realtech HD Audio device and check the Listen to this device checkbox.
-click ok to dismiss the window.
So, essentially, the game audio will play through the Realtec, your mic is also set to play to the Realtec. both audio streams are now part of Stereo Mix. Stereo Mix is being listened to by your headset allowing you to hear the game and your voice.]

Don't know about turning off any powered speakers.. the only speakers I have besides the headphones are the internal laptop speakers. I get the same feedback if i have the headphones plugged in or not.

Headphone/mic/speakerpone issue

Before I send in my new phone (now 3 weeks old) for a refurb, I'd like to know if it's actually going to help. Has anyone run into the situation below, if if so, what did you do?
I use my speakerphone regularly for work. A week ago my phone started switching from speakerphone to the ear piece. I would switch the speakerphone on and anywhere from 20 seconds to a minute later, it would happen again. It happened around once a day. A minor annoyance, but I could deal with it. A few days later and ever since, though, my phone started dropping calls any time I was on the ear piece. i.e., neither myself or the remote party could hear one another. After 20-30 seconds, one of use assumed the other was gone and would hang up and redial.
I started looking online for speakerphone/ear piece issues thinking maybe it was hardware. In one forum, I find hints of it being related to the headphone jack. (I listen to music a lot in the car using the headphone jack into the stereo, so I thought it could be the issue.) After reading more descriptions of the headphone issues, I tried some things to see if I was having the same issue. When the ear piece "mutes", I can hit the speakerphone button and the remote party and I can hear each other. It lasts 5 seconds to a minute, then silence again as the speakerphone switched off. This is with the phone in my hand or lying on the table. I'm not bumping the button. I press the speakerphone again, once again the remote party and I can hear each other.
So, I started searching more for the issue. Based on what I've read and tested, it's definitely a headphone jack sensing issue. If I plug in headphones with a mic, I can hear and talk with no issue. If I unplug them, the phone uses the ear piece for a few seconds, then back to headphones (even though I have not plugged them back in to the phone).
From what I've read, this has happened for a while and with multiple Samsung phones. All Verizon has offered me is to send out a refurb phone. In fact, they have said *no one* has reported a similar issue. Given the dozens of accounts of this, even a few in these forums, I find that hard to believe. However, I've read some users have gone through as many as 4 Nexus phones with no fix to this issue. Some held out for 4.0.4 thinking it would fix it. It has not. Some are holding out for JB, though there are people with (deleted content to comply with VZW ToS) phones (running the unofficial release from Google) saying it does not fix the issue. I have a BT headset, but even it is trumped by the phone thinking the headset is in place. The only way I can even partially use the phone at this point is to use the "Wired Headset Routing Fix" app. The fact that there's an app to force your phone to ignore the headset is telling. Using this app, I'm able to make calls the majority of the time. When I call out, it always works, using the ear piece the entire call. When people call in, the headphones try to answer, a quick speakerphone then ear piece switch will fix it in some cases. Almost like I have to prod the app into working.
Two things I've noticed, one is that the problem is worse when on a 3G connection than 4G. Leads me to think it *could* be related to radios. Two is that after a few times of this happening, the phone becomes unstable, grinds to a halt, and reboots.
I've tried a lot of things on my own since the VZW solution is to just send out a refurb. I've tried gently plugging and unplugging a headset. I've tried canned air. I've tried removing the battery and SIM card. I've tried a factory reset (which was painful as I *just* got the phone set up how I like it when this started). I'm to the point of extreme frustration as I essentially have a really expensive, small, Android tablet now. I take care of my phones and use them as long as possible before trading up to the latest. (Came from Sprint where I had a stock HTC Evo for 3 years with no issues whatsoever. Switched to Verizon as there are no Sprint towers where I just moved.)
Thoughts? I'm leaning toward the refurb, but I don't want to be sending the phone back every month for a new one. Is there anything else to try? Should I hold out for JB? Do I demand something other than a Nexus. (Other than the stability issues, I *love* this phone.)
Thanks!

I have this problem to with my iPhone 5 and iOS 8.0.2. I also have the problem in iOS 8.1 but it is more intermittent. Furthermore, when the call ends, the podcast (that's all I listen to lately) is at the new volume setting, even though the call's volume was unchanged.
Getting the call at maximum volume and not being able to reduce the volume is potentially hazardous, especially if on top of all that, the caller is shouting.

Headphone mic damage from sweat or water after working out

I am on my 3rd set of apple headphones w mic. I like to listen to music through my iPhone at the gym or while running and think headphone mic is getting damage from sweat and/or water. Yes I could use regular headphones, but I like being able to take a call if one comes through. I could also try to sweat less, but that's another discussion.
Does anyone have this same problem or know of any 3rd party covers for the mic that work well? Thanks.

You take calls at the gym? You probably should not do that; seems rude.
I would go with the regular headphones and let any calls go to voicemail. It is likely you and the person calling can survive without contact for the time you are in the gym.

IPhone 2G voice mic not working

Has anyone come across iPhone 2G voice mic not working (not being heard by the other person) but works fine on speaker phone and bluetooth headset. It has been working fine so far and suddenly developed this problem! Any help is highly appreciated….

I had that problem with my iPhone 3G after about 5 days.
I just had Apple take a look at it.
They cleaned it out, called it and stuff.
Didn't work.
Since I didn't drop it in water and it was not my fault in any way, they gave me a brand new one.
