How come i can hear my friend on ichat but she cant hear me?

how come i can hear my friend on ichat but she cant hear me?

Hi,
Several possibles.
1) The Mic (or Audio) item in the Video Menu is Off (unticked)
2) The Selection in  App (iChat or Messages) menu > Preferences > Video section > Microphone Drop down  is not pointing to a Mic that is active.
3) The Mic selection in System Preferences > Sound > Input tab is not the same device in the app and/or the volume is not set high enough.
In System Preferences > Sound > Input tab the blue response bar must get to at least halfway (preferably 3/4s) but not bang in to the right hand end.
The Mic should be the one select in the app itself.
IF you are using a headset then change both the System Preferences > Sound > Input to anything else but the headset mic.
Then do the same if the app.
Then go back to the System Preferences and "Set" that "First" and then do the App "Second"
Repeat the same process for the output options in both places.

I play this from my computer and I play my music from my computer as well. Also other friends cant here it as well. Could you please tell me what I need to do to fix it 

    Hello,
    Long shot, but...
    Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back.

    Hi Kel134,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you are having microphone issues on your iPhone when you place a call to someone and they cannot hear you unless you activate the speaker function. In this situation I would recommend the steps in the following article to help isolate and resolve the situation. 
    iPhone: Microphone issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5183
    Resolve the issue
    Follow these steps, testing after each.
    Make sure nothing is plugged in to the jack connector.
    Make sure nothing is blocking any of the microphones (refer to the pictures below to find your device's microphones). Check for these:
    Dirt or debris
    A screen protector or case
    When you're holding your phone next to your ear, make sure you don't block the microphone with your fingers or shoulder and make sure to speak into the microphone
    Turn the iPhone off and then on.
    Update to the latest version of iOS.
    If necessary, find general iPhone hardware troubleshooting suggestions.
    For further assistance, contact Apple Support.
    I hope this helps,   
    -Joe

  • In my viber, Ican hear the other persons voice but they cant hear my voice! please help! emmergency!!

    pls it has been going on for some days! the caller cant hear my voice but I can hear thrm! how can I make my sound correct

    I too have major problems with Viber, the caller can hear my voice but I can't hear anything. Viber can ring, but I can't hear anything when I pick up. And If I make the call, there is no ringing shound either. If the other party picks up, it is absolute silence on my end but they can hear me.
    I have tried uninstalling and re-installing, doing this over itunes, wifi and 3G. Tired using another iphone 5 with the same failures. Used another sim card and also the same result.
    Software is all up to date. The iphone software is 6.1.3 and viber is 2.3.1.
    I am at a total loss to understand or think of further solutions.  Could someone please offer some assistance?? this has been going on for a week now.
    Thanks.

  • HT201401 i hear to whoever i call but they cant hear me any one knows what could it be?

    when i make a phone call they can't hear me talking

    Go to the voice memo app and see if you can record yourself. If you cant heard yourself talking, you need to take your phone to your local Apple Store or Apple Authorized Service Provider.

  • How come I can't hear Siri talking anymore,what I do wrong?

    How come I can't hear Siri talking anymore,what I do wrong?

    Try a reset. Reset the iPhone by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button and the home button for 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears, ignore the red slider.  Then turn back on. You won't lose any data doing the reset.

    Hi Bignut69,
    I recommend the troubleshooting steps in this article if the microphone on your iPhone is not working:
    Make sure nothing is plugged in to the jack connector.
    Make sure nothing is blocking any of the microphones (see the pictures below to locate the microphones on your device)
    Make sure none of the microphones is obstructed by dirt or debris.
    Turn the iPhone off and then on.
    Make sure that the latest version of iOS is installed.
    If necessary, find general iPhone hardware troubleshooting suggestions.
    For further assistance, contact Apple Support.

  • How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud

    How come I can't add a song to my playlists in itunes match? Is it me or itunes match? It keeps on coming up with a message " iCloud playlists can only contain songs from your iCloud music library. If you continue, the playlist will be removed from iCloud and will only be available on this computer"?
    You must surely be able to add and subtract songs on specific playlist?

    I fixed this issue (with help from tech support) and it involved several things.
    After adding a song to iTunes, right-click on the song in iTunes and select "Update iTunes Match."
    OR go to the iTunes menu-->Store-->Update iTunes Match.
    Maybe that's the reason, it just hadn't updated to the cloud.
    OR maybe it's not a high-enough bitrate file.   This happens to me because most of my tunes are home-recorded.
    Sometimes converting to .mp3 or Create AAC version might work. (You do this with a right-click in iTunes, and then you will want to remove the original file from iTunes.)
    There is an iTunes Preferences setting, under General Preferences called Import Settings.  Try setting it to AAC Encoder and iTunes Plus.   That (I think) causes imports to be slightly better quality.
    Good luck!  The tech support person at Apple is requesting that a knowlege-base article be written about this.

  • How come I can't update my iPad 1 to the new iOS 6 it says my iOS version 5.1.1 is the latest version?

    How come I can't update my iPad 1 to the new iOS 6 it says my iOS version 5.1.1 is the latest version?

    The iPad 1, coming up on three years since it was introduced, has been given two major and a number of minor upgrades to iOS, more than many tablet manufactures provide. The iPad 1's hardware just can't effectively support many of the features in iOS 6. So I don't think that it's particularly unfair for Apple to no longer provide updates. And yes, I do own and manage a number of iPad 1s.

  • How come I can't use the back gesture in certain apps with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion OS?

    How come I can't use the back gesture with my magic mouse on certain applications in Lion? I figured out that in Safari i have to use a 1 finger swipe to go back a page instead of 2 fingers like i used to do in Snow Leopard. But apps like iTunes and iPhoto and i can't do that. Any ideas? is there a setting im missing to make this work? It works in Safari but not any other applications, so im assuming theres no setting for this. Just want to know if this is just a bug that will be fixed in the next update or if its something I can fix now. Any help would be appreciated because its kind of annoying. Other than this minor issue I love Lion. Full screen apps are unbelievable.

  • How come I can't put music on my ipod? I already have a fair amount of music on my ipod but I have enough space for more. I am using a new computer with itunes and it is telling me if I wasnt to put the new music on my ipd i need to erase my ipod HELP!

    Because you can only synce with one iTunes library and you are switching libries by using the new computer. To nake this yyour syncing computer:
    - Move all the media(apps, music, synced video and photos etc) to the new computer.
    - Connect the iPofd yo the computer and bake a backup fo the iPod by right clicking on the iPod under Devices in iTunes and select Back Up
    - Restore the iPod from that backup.
    Note that the backup that iTunes makes doe not include media.
    To move mdia to the new computer see:
    iTunes: How to move your music to a new computer
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
