The following steps were posted by @DavidPK. I am copying the steps I want you to try rather than just linking you the thread as it is quite long. I am also providing a link to the thread below.
“Right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Click the Recording tab, right click the 'Integrated Microphone array' and select Properties. Click the Microphone Enhancements tab and put a tick in the box next to 'Disable microphone enhancements'. Click Apply and Ok to save this change and the restart the notebook - has this made any difference?”

Hp pavilion dv7 notebook numeric keypad not working

The numeric keypad on my hp pavilion dv7 notebook does not work. I can't get the num lock to work or any of the number keys to respond.

Hi,
While this could be a hardware issue, it's always worth trying the following.
Open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager, expand Keyboards, right click the entry 'Standard PS/2 Keyboard' and select Uninstall.
Shutdown the notebook.
Then unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Note: If the keyboard doesn't work when trying to access or navigate the Bios Menu, then this is probably a hardware fault.
Regards,
DP-K

Pavilion G6/XP mic is not working

Hi. I have HP Pavilion G6/XP and my built-in mic recently stopped working, although i didn't make any reinstallation on my notebook. External mic is working. HELP me please.

Hi 86ers,
Looks like you are having an issue with your webcam and microphone. I can help but I will need some additional information. Are you getting any sort of error message? Any sound issues at all? If you use headphones do you still hear the sound? What is your product number? What operating system are you running?

HP Pavilion dv7-3069wm touch controls not working

Above the keyboard, next to the power button there was a lit up mute, volume control, and wireless control. At one point the wireless and mute button stayed amber until I did a hard reset. Now they are completely gone. The volume control and DVD controls are lit up white, but don't work. The Quick Launch icon is also gone.
The HP Quick Launch software has been update, but still nothing. I've installed the latest BIOS, but that didn't help either.
Does anyone have any suggestions? The laptop is out of warranty.

I have a diferent problem but its also with a Pavilion dv7-3079wm. I bought it in february 9 of 2010 and today when i check the warranty i discovered that was allready finished.
When i have like an hour or hour and a half using the internet or word or just listen music, suddenly the laptop stop working and the image on the screen gets frozen. Anything works and i have to shut down by the power button.
It takes like 15 minutes to restart again.
But if i just started to use it and open a videogame (age of empires) or a program which needs more graphic memory (archicad 12) the computer stop working at 5 minutes.
Does anyone have the same problem??? Someone told me that the video card its damaged on this models, it's that true???

Integrated Microphone Array not working

Hi. I recently bought a dv6 laptop. In the beginning there were no problems with it at all, but without any (to me) apparent reason, the integrated microphone simply stopped working. I've tried several suggested solutions already; I've checked my sound setup in the control panel, everything checks out there, and I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling the IDT HD Audio Driver CODEC through the HP Recovery Manager. My laptop is running Windows 7 x64. I really need a solution to this problem, it is driving me crazy.. I'm hoping someone in here can help me..
Thanks in advance.

Hello schneids,
I see that you are having start up problems with your HP computer. I have a couple of suggestions that may help with your issues.
Here is a link to some troubleshooting steps that may help resolve your issues.
If you are still having trouble I would suggest testing the power adapter or trying a different power adapter. Most retailers will let you try a power adapter on the computer to see if it works.
Let me know what happens.

Hello my ipad 2 mic is not working. I tried vacuuming. Still no changes. Pls Help

hello my ipad 2 mic is not working. I tried vacuuming. Still no changes. Pls Help

Try restoring the IPad. Either plug it into your computer or go to iPad settings, reset, all content and data. Restoring it should fix any software issues if it's a software problem. If that doesn't work it's likely a hardware issue and can't help you there. Have to take it into an apple store or authorized seller.

My ipad2 mic is not working. Can someone please help me?

I Recently discovered that the mic on my iPad 2 with iOS version 8.2 is not working. Please what can I do to get it working?

You do know with absolute certainty he, that the mic does not work at all? Have you tried recording a video with sound to test to make sure that the microphone isn't working?
if you have tried recording a video with sound and that did not work, have you tried any troubleshooting steps at all? Have you looked to see if there is any debris covering the mic? Or do you have a cover that could be interfering with the microphone?
you can start with a reset of the iPad if you haven't done anything else. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time, for about 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears on the screen. When you see the Apple logo on the screen, you can let go of the buttons and let the iPad start up. Try the microphone after the iPad starts up again.
You could try restoring the iPad to factory settings and see if that recovers the microphone for you.
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings - Apple Support
It is also possible that you could have a hardware issue which you will not be able to resolve on your own. If you cannot find any other way to get the microphone to work you may end up having to take it to an Apple store and let an Apple genius evaluate the device.

INTEGRATED MIC ARRAY RECORDS ONLY NOISE

My laptop is hp dv6 2164 TX.
The integrated mic has been working very fine for almost 2 years now. I use it to chat in yahoo messenger.
But suddenly it has stopped working. I ve the latest updates, the dafault devices are all correct.
The mic doesnt work anywhere, not just yahoo.
With windows sound recorder i couldnt record anything, but when i tapped the mic area it records the tap but that too very noisy. An external mic connected and set to default works fine with the laptop.
I ve tried uninstalling and re installing the drivers, disabled all enhancements, nothing seems to work.
Can anybody plz help me with this ??

1.Many of the mics on these laptops seem problematic.I have one laptop which is about 3 years old now and the mic has never worked from day 1, just would not even pick up voice. Everything else I love about it and it runs great so I lived with it.
2.I have seen numerous problems posted about Norton 360.Just today a poster uninstalled it to do a fresh install and now his machine won't boot. I suggest downloading the Norton Uninstall Tool to be sure you have a clean removal.
3.Download and Save the latest HP Support Assisant Go to Control Panel, Programs & Features and uninstall old HP SA. Restart the machine and use the downloaded file to reinstall.

Iphone 4 mic is not working properly

Hello,
Well my i droped my phone 4 and the back has been broken, well i replaced it with a new one, the result is that
My iphone camera was broken and i tried to replace it with a new one but the problem persist, and the mic is not working properly
That when i receive a phone call or when i call someone my iphone mic work sometimes and stop others and i discovered that by tapping on
The back of the iphone it work, and meanwhile i can use the mic for recording voice memos or for using viber or any software using the mic
And it works very good, only in phone calls it stop working and by tapping on the back it work again,
Anyone can help me???

Thanks for the reply but yes it does record voice memo because there are 2 mics 1 on top and 1 on bottom.
the one that is using for making phone calls is the bottom one.Therefore top 1 is good but bottom is not.

The mic is not working on skype, and its not muted

Every time my sister or myself go to use Skype on the IMac, the mic does not work, we can hear the person on the other end but they can not hear us, the mic is not muted, and when you go into the sound settings the mic is on the proper setting from what I can tell, and when I go into speech (under speech recognition) the microphone option for built-in microphone is grayed out. I don't what exactly this all means, but if someone else does, and can help me fix this problem I would greatly appreciate it.

I find it quite frankly perthetic that this issue still occurs and is simply ignored by Apple. You find this problem over and over, mic doesn't seem to work, but calibration does pick up sound, and there is no clear indication what is wrong, and what could possibly be done about it.
Like Dragonlover above, I have the same problem, and while looking through various Forums, I see that A LOT of other customers have the same issue. Help on this is virtually been zero from Apple. I now need to use an external mic which is just what I had in mind when I bot the Macbook Air...
Hope that the next 56 views will not just look and leave but post of they have the same problem, just to show how utterly sad it is that this is clearly a problem not just on the iMac, but on all Macbooks too. Sad Apple...just sad...

My mic is not working

I've checked all the possible/visible mic check options. When I skype the test call doesn't work and that is how I found the problem. I did recently download the Mt Lion 10.8.2 and Iphoto 9.4 but they shouldn't have affected the mic. Lastly, I traveled with my lap top and may have slung it around more than usual.
If it needs to be aired with the dusting air, okay...I haven't even found the mic...looked above left speaker and in that folding area, to no avail. I know it is silly but I organized info and can't find my instruction manual! Help please!

See if zapping the pram or resetting the SMU works. If your mic does not work with any applications that uses it, you probably have a hardware issue. If you have Apple Care, give them a call and get a case number. Otherwise, take the computer to an Apple store or an AASP. Whichever is more convenient for you.

Bluetooth headset's mic does not work

I have NB205-312BL netbook and bought Acoustic Research ARWH1 bluetooth headset.
I am able to pair it with the netbook easily. However, the mic does not work! Only audio playback works. I know it is not the fault of the headset because the mic works pretty well with a cell phone.
When I look at Device's properties, I see that the device is identified as a 'headset' but an audio-sink device.
The mic does not work even if I explicitly select "Bluetooth Wave" as the sound/voice input device.
The netbook runs Windows XP. It has the latest Toshiba Bluetooth software 6.40.xx installed on it.
Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks.

First you need to get your keyboard fixed. The caps lock appears to be stuck.
What have you tried, and what symptoms do you observe? "Does not work" does not tell us much.
