Internal Mic and Bluetooth not working together at the same time

Okay.. so I've been noticing this happen alot lately. Whenever I have my usb wacom tablet plugged in (which is almost always), there would be no internal mic input and bluetooth would become "not unavailable". Also, even when I try an external mic, there was no input. Could this be a coincidence or some related usb-bluetooth problem? Could it be my audio input or tablet driver problem?
I've used my mic to skype before I had installed the tablet. Also before I used garage band to record my sister's guitar with an external mic, there was no problem at all, and of course I didn't have my tablet plugged in at the time. Recorded a whole hours worth of music, and didn't have any problems.
Today.. I checked to see if my internal mic was working before I launched skype, and it was working perfectly, and I also noticed my bluetooth was available (didn't test it though). Then I went on skype talked to friend for about 20min, and suddenly the audio stop working. I had my tablet plugged in from earlier today. I restarted my macbook (with no tablet plugged in) and still mic input isn't working. I tried and external mic, but still nothing. I tried uninstalling skype, still nothing.
This is not the first time this happened, I noticed it would somehow fix itself after a few days every time, and mic and bluetooth would start working again out of nowhere. Which makes it even more weird.
Need help pleaseee!
PS. I tried getting someone to fix it before(a few months ago- I don't really use my mic or bluetooth much), but when I brought it in and started up my mac, at that time it was working again. But now it isn't working =(

UPDATE: I just noticed my bluetooth was no longer "unavailable", so I quickly went into system preferences, and noticed that my internal mic input had some input! Very weak though, only 1-2 bars. So what does this mean?

  • Installed iOS7 update and now wifi and Bluetooth not working

    My daughters 4s has never skipped a beat - perfectly reliable. Just updated iOS7 with update and now both wifi and Bluetooth not working. Wifi is greyed out and when you go into bluetooth the busy twirly symbol is constantly going round. Can someone please help me as I'm pulling my hair out! My other Daughters iphone 4s is fins BUT she has not downloaded latest update - and she won't until this is resolved. If needs be I will take to store and DEMAND for it to be sorted out - either by repair or replacement as it is wholly a seemingly software issue and nothing wrong with the phone.
    Gutted really as I am a huge Apple fan and customer with ipods, phones, iMac & iPads all around. If this is not resolved I fear an Apple drought may begin!

    ..... ty for the link, however this is the first result googling the issue..... of course it did not work....
    it is really unbelivable that plenty 4s devices suffered the wifi troubleshooting just after upgrading to ios7, and finally.... i should burn wifi and bluthoot, and another hardware problems should cause % battery value is disappeared....
    all this in one shot....
    firmaware is not well working or is somebody bombing our devices to force us to switch to newest?

  • I want to save with alt s in the program Exact Online. This function is not working. this is the first time that i use this program with firefox.

    Question
    I want to save with <nowiki><alt><s></nowiki> in the program Exact Online. This function is not working. this is the first time that i use this program with firefox.
    '''edit''', mod escaped the '''<nowiki><s></nowiki>''' to prevent line through question

    Submitted too soon... To change your accelerator key for accesskeys to Alt alone (or a different combination), you can change a setting using Firefox's about:config preferences page.
    (1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
    (2) In the filter box, type or paste '''ui.k''' and pause while the list is filtered
    (3) Make sure '''ui.key.generalAccessKey''' is set to its default value of -1 (or right-click and choose Reset if it is not).
    (4) Double-click '''ui.key.contentAccess''' to open a dialog box to change the value from its current default (on Windows, 5) to your choice of the following:
    * 2 = '''Ctrl''' (Fx default on Mac thru Fx13)
    * 3 = Ctrl + Shift
    * 4 = '''Alt''' (IE/Chrome/Safari default on Win/Linux)
    * 5 = '''Alt + Shift''' (Fx default on Windows & Linux)
    * 6 = '''Ctrl + Alt''' (Fx default on Mac from Fx14) (Chrome/Safari default on Mac)
    * 7 = Ctrl + Alt + Shift
    This should take effect as soon as you OK the dialog, so you can experiment in a separate tab. Other combinations are available if you want to try them. See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Ui.key.contentAccess (inaccessible at the moment?)

  • I dont get sound for videos, games and music but ringtone still works. When i press volume buttons on side of phone i only get the picture of the nell and no little dots underneath. This is on my iphone 4s and ipad. It happened at the same time.

    I dont get sound for videos, games and music but ringtone still works. When i press volume buttons on side of phone i only get the picture of the nell and no little dots underneath. This is on my iphone 4s and ipad. It happened at the same time.

    Recurring theme with the 4s losing alerts except for the phone ringing.  Most complaints seem to center on the 7.1 upgrade.  The fix is dodgy, putting in a charger, playing a you tube video then pulling out the charger and wiggling it until you get the sound back.  When you get the sound back, the volume buttons start to work again.  Alternate solutions involve cleaning the docking port with a toothbrush, running a pick over the electrodes etc.

  • I have an Iphone 6 plus. Can the bluetooth connect to the cars speaker system and a Garmin HUD unit at the same time?

    I have an Iphone 6 plus. Can the bluetooth connect to the cars speaker system and a Garmin HUD unit at the same time?

    Hi,
    Normally yes, Bluetooth can connect to multiple devices at the same time, so yes.
    The only thing is that you'll be able to send sound/music to only one at a time, but I understand the Garmin HUD doesn't play sounds.
    cheers

  • I was backing up my iPhone and importing photos onto iPhoto at the same time , then suddenly it says no more space available (i had 48GB before i do this and now i have 18GB) i can't find the back up or the photo anywhere , how can i delete them ?

    i was backing up my iPhone and importing photos onto iPhoto at the same time , then suddenly it says no more space available (i had 48GB before i do this and now i have 18GB) i can't find the back up or the photo anywhere , how can i delete them ? i dont need the pictures or the back ups , i want to delete them but they are not there

    Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
    iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
    Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
    According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
    When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown asBackups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Reboot and it should go away.
    See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
    You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
    Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
    Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
    ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
    Back up all data now.
    If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
    Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
    sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
    Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
    Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
    The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size with the largest at the top. It may take a few minutes for ODS to finish scanning.
    I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
    When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

  • Bluetooth - Connecting two devices at the same time on a Run (Bluetooth Mot headset

    I would like to connect two Bluetooth devised at the same time on my runs.  (Bluetooth Motorola headset (S10-HD) and Polars heart monitor (H7) at the same time)  is that possible?

    Thank you for the information.  So if I were to return the new bluetooth keyboard, should I purchase the "Palm 3169WWZ Wireless Keyboard", or is there another model I should be looking for?  (From what I can tell, I believe this one will use IR.)
    THANKS!
    Correct, that's the one I use. 
    Be sure to download the newest driver (1.13) for the keyboard from the Palm Support pages for the keyboard:
    http://kb.palm.com/wps/portal/kb/na/keyboards/palmuniversalwirelesskeyboard/unlocked/downloads/page_...
    Do not install the driver that comes with the device on the disk - 1.13 is designed for the TX and fixes a bug that existed in the original driver.

  • Can an Airport extend a wireless network and support a USB printer at the same time?

    Can an Airport extend a wireless network and support a USB printer at the same time?

    Yes, if the AirPort Express is extending the wireless signal produced by another Apple router. The Express cannot wirelessly extend a network produced by a non-Apple router.
    In addition to extending the network and connecting a printer, AirPlay can also be enabled on the AirPort Express, with all services operating simultaneously.
    Please note that only the print function will work if you connect an All-in-One type device to the USB port on the Express. Advanced features like copy, scan, mainentance, etc are not supported when an All-in-One device is connected to the USB port on an AirPort router.

  • It is possible to charge an iPad3 over USB and transmit data over USB at the same time?

    Hello,
    it is possible to charge an iPad3 over USB and transmit data over USB at the same time?
    If yes, how?
    Thanks
    Best regards

    OK!?
    That is right that the USB data oins are not connected to +5V pin.
    But i found a description for a self built power supply for iPad.
    http://timothyb.net/DIY_iPad_2_USB_Charger.html
    and
    https://www.mikrocontroller.net/topic/262610?goto=2726627#2726627
    The description say: data pin D- need a voltage level of 2V and D+ 2,857V
    when the data pins have this special voltage levels and VCC has +5V only then the iPad is charging.
    The voltage "D+/D- coding" is the key for the iPad to charge.
    OK now back to my problem.
    The regular USB data pin voltage level is 0,3 - 3.,0 voltage. When the iPad is charging the data pins have this special voltage level. Now i try to transmit data over the usb data pins with the. Normaly the USB port transmit the data with a voltage level of max. 3V.
    And here my problem. The higher voltage level at the data pins cares therefor that the iPad stop the charging.
    Is that correct?
