Internal mic not available with Apple headphones

Hi there! I hope somebody can clear this up for me.
I often use my Apple headphones with the built-in mic to monitor my recordings on GarageBand (like listening to one track as I record another over it), but I use the internal mic to record rather than the external mic on the headphones. However, now when I plug the headphones in, there is no option for me to use the internal mic on the computer. I've looked on the system preferences and on the GarageBand preferences, and no amount of jimmying with the settings will let me record through the internal mic while having playback through the headphones. I know the headphones are somewhat damaged due to my wearing them when I exercise (the sweat and all). Is it that the headphones are damaged, or that the computer has a problem which is making using the internal mic with the headphones not an option? What should I do to fix it? Thanks so much for your help!

Please Apple fix this problem, this has been bugging me for a long time.. No solution so far...

  • My macbook is not working with any headphones!!!!

    i have a problem my macbook is not working with any headphones
    can any body tell me why is it doing this?
    or how i can tell if its just the headphone jack w/o taking it to an apple store? I really dont have the time until the end of the semester and i dont want my macbook crashing on me when working on a project.
    thanks in advance

    When you plug the headphones in can you still hear the audio through the MacBook's built-in speakers? If you can then you may have a physical problem with the audio port on the MacBook. In any case, you should check to see if the headphones are being recognized in the System Preferences -> Sound control panel (under the "Output" tab). Note that it is possible to have different volume/mute settings between the speakers and the headphones so you need to check the Sound control panel to see if you have the headphone output set to mute. When I plug a set of headphones into my MacBook the output name in the Sound control panel changes to "Headphones" from "Internal Speakers." You should check to see if you see the same behavior on your MacBook.

    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.

  • X220 Internal Mic not working

    I had just get a new X220 in recent days.
    And I found the internal mic not working, I can not record any sound through Sound Record or Skype.
    I had tried all the following methods, but the mic still can not working. Anyone cound give me some suggestion ?
    1) update sound card driver to 8.32.23.2
    2) Fn+F6,  change between "only my voice" or "Multiple voice"
    4) UnInstall source card driver and use microsoft generic driver
    3) The method in http://forums.lenovo.com/t5/T400-T500-and-newer-T-series/T420-internal-mic-problem/td-p/435551/page/..., operate like :
       Start -> control Panel -> Sound
    Click on the "Recording" tab
    Click Internal Microphone to highlight it
    Click Properties
    Click the "Advanced" tab
    Uncheck "Enable audio enhancements"
    Finally, click the "Levels" tab and turn Microphone Boost to 0dB. (if you don't do this the noise will be even louder than before).
    Click apply.

    hey kitewind,
    welcome to the forums and since you have tested the microphone using microsoft generic drivers and i'm guessing it did not work; therefore the best action for you right now is to contact our tech support group via

  • Youtube hd videos not available for apple tv

    Hello,
    I have Apple TV since Nov/2012 and just realized that Youtube HD videos are not available for Apple TV. I have a playlist in Youtube with lot of HD videos but in Apple TV all HD videos are not displayed. Anybody knows if it is some restrictions (Apple and Google) or is it some configuration that I need to do?
    Thanks
    André

    ok, I got it...unfortunately the most of my favorite videos looks like use Flash because they are not available by Apple TV
    Thank you for your comments

  • Internal Mic not Working, external mic quits arbitrarily, I'm at wit's end!!!!

    Hey kids!
    The Computer: Toshiba Satellite A355D-S69221
    The Program: 32 Bit Windows Vista
    The issue: Internal Mic not recognized, external mic quits midway through conversation, Realtek Digital output not plugged in.
    So being the smart guy I am, a few weeks back I decided to do the smart thing and delete all the speech recognition software off this thing. I don't need it, so wth.
    Now, my internal mic quit. I reinstalled the software, rolled back drivers, deleted drivers to rebuild the driver stack, did a BIOS update, did the GTA ViceCity cheatcode start (unplug everything hold power key 30 seconds, reboot, f2 to enter bios, f9 to update, f10 to save), and nothing. 
    I did notice that when I had the Realtek Digital Output set as standard, my mic jack was illuminated by a red LED, and the Realtek HD manager wouldn't pop up when I plug something in.
    The last irritating part is that I will talk to my wife via vo/ip, the external mic I am using will just quit mid conversation, and I have to reload a driver to get it to work again. I am at my wit's end with this thing, can anyone help? The last thing I am goign to do is another system restore from an earlier date than I used before. Does anyone have any other hints/clues/ideas?
    KFD

    Thanks Jeff. No this isn't some kind of emergency so no one really minds my tinkering until it does get back up.
    OK, I got it now. This is what my cyrus.conf looks like. It doesn't look like there's anything wrong with it...
    # standard standalone server implementation
    START {
    # do not delete this entry!
    recover cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -r"
    # this is only necessary if using idled for IMAP IDLE
    # idled cmd="idled"
    # UNIX sockets start with a slash and are put into /var/imap/socket
    SERVICES {
    # add or remove based on preferences
    imap cmd="imapd" listen="imap" prefork=0
    imaps cmd="imapd -s" listen="imaps" prefork=0

    # at least one LMTP is required for delivery
    lmtp cmd="lmtpd" listen="lmtp" prefork=0
    lmtpunix cmd="lmtpd" listen="/var/imap/socket/lmtp" prefork=0
    # this is only necessary if using notifications
    # notify cmd="notifyd" listen="/var/imap/socket/notify" proto="udp" prefork=1
    EVENTS {
    # this is required
    checkpoint cmd="ctl_cyrusdb -c" period=30
    # this is only necessary if using duplicate delivery suppression
    delprune cmd="ctl_deliver -E 3" at=0400
    # this is only necessary if caching TLS sessions
    tlsprune cmd="tls_prune" at=0400
    LIMITS {
    imaplimit value=0
    But yet it insists with the message: relay=cyrus, delay=239180, status=deferred (temporary failure. Command output: couldn't connect to lmtpd: No such file or directory_ 421 4.3.0 deliver: couldn't connect to lmtpd_ )
    when I try to send a message through the server. Could this be a permissions thing? I've fixed the permissions a lot of times and nothing seems to get changed...
    Again, thanks for everyone's help. I'm sure this is something dumb that I'm just missing but since I'm not familiar enough with the system it's hard for me to figure out what that is!

  • Driver software is not available from Apple

    Was using an HP LaserJet 1020 without any problems until last week, when it just gave out and it shows the following error every time: "driver software is not available from Apple". Have tried to install the latest drivers but it won't allow it with the same error.
    Also tried following these instructions http://blog.jayway.com/2010/04/08/hp-laserjet-1020-in-snow-leopard/ but it gets stuck on the third step. The driver list can't be opened and it reads "driver software is not available from Apple" again.
    Any suggestions?

    From what I can tell from online research, HP never claimed the 1020 printer series was compatible with Macs or has ever developed any OS X drivers for them. For instance, from the "Specifications" tab of this product info page:
    Because of that, I'm kind of amazed that you ever got your 1020 to work with any version of OS X, unless some sort of hack or third party driver was involved. If so, you might want to check with the originator of that workaround to see if there are any new developments that would get it working again.

  • Gmail suddenly not working with Apple Mail

    My gmail suddenly is not working with Apple Mail.
    It said my username or password is wrong, but it was okay this morning.
    Nevertheless, I deleted my gmail account, and re-setup it using Internet Accounts from System Preference.
    However, I got the beow message:
    There was a problem setting up the Mail account. An unknown error occurred.
    I am sure my username and password are correct because I just login it using Safari.
    Does anyone know what the cause is?
    Please help~~~

    Gmail not syncing in mac mail is a problem that is also in snow leopard since the new year.
    OSX 10.6.8  is the highest OS that will run on an Intel Core 2 Duo.  Do not try to install Mavericks on this machine! I will install, but turns it into a dinosaur and many programs will no longer run.
    I had an issue with Mac Mail not syncing with imap.gmail.com. and Safari not being able to find apple.com.
    This was resolved by working with an upper level tech support member for several hours deleating particular system library files, uninstalling most addons, reseting system network settings and a whole lot more! (too much to name here)
    Thank you Apple Tech Support.

  • Internal Microphone not working with Quicktime and some other apps, yet it does for Skype.

    Internal Microphone not working with Quicktime and some other apps, yet it does for Skype. 
    Microphone works fine with Quictime on another mac, so I do know how to use it. The one where it is not working (A) had an external microphone and camera attached earlier, and indeed it does work with that external microphone, but not with the internal microphone selected; and (B) had RealPlayer installed previously.
    Any suggestions, please?

    Hi,

    Extract this driver with Winrar.
    Open Device manager and expand the Sound, video and game controllers section.

  • ...notifications are a paid only feature, they are not available with a free account...

    Hi Support-Team,
    is there a chance to change this:
    "... notifications are a paid only feature, they are not available with a free account ..."
    If we can't send a notification to an other user FormsCentral doesn't make sence and will cancel the account... That would be a pity, because otherwise everything would work very well.
    Kind regards
    Andreas

    Hi;
    Thanks for your feedback, but notifications are a paid feature and are not available in a free account.  That isn't likely to change.  Hopefully there is enough value in this and the other features of a paid account for you to consider an upgrade.
    Thanks,
    Josh

  • Aperture is not compatible with Apple TV

    Apple Support has confirmed that the preview function in Aperture is not compatible with Apple TV.  Don't buy Aperture if you want the same resolution on Apple TV!  Stick with iPhoto!!

    Works fine here, but must note that only a single Aperture Library can be selected, and this is to the exclusion of the iPhoto Library.
    Right-click on the Aperture Library and choose Show Package Contents.  Look for the iPod Photo Cache folder, and open it.  Is it populated by lots of subfolders, which in turn have content?  What is the date that the iPod Photo Cache was last modified.  You may not be able to check this now, having dumped Aperture, as you say.
    This folder is the source of what iTunes will see for sharing.  It probably can be removed, and then rebuilt by selecting what to Share.  Or maybe just removing its contents, and rebuild the selections.  But there is one per Aperture Library, and one in the iPhoto library, which is why only one source can be used to sync.

  • Work Clearance Management  (WCM) not available with ECC 6.0

    Hi All,
    Work Clearance Management (WCM) is a part of SAP Plant Maintenance (PM). It is a standard functionality. This is not available with our installed version of ECC 6.0 system.
    The navigation should be
    SAP Easy Access > Logistics > Plant Maintenance > Work Clearance Management.
    This is also not available on SPRO.
    But whenever we directly enter the T Code related to WCM, it allows me to go to that screen. But if we want to customize the WCM using the same method then the SAP standard configuration is missing.
    I need to get this functionality available on our system.
    Is it a part of SAP software component SAP_APPL ?
    But how do I get this ?
    Can anyone pls help me on this ?
    Thanks and warm regards
    Purnendu

    I think that WCM it's present as an extension set (i'm not quite sure if is EA-PLM or EA-SCM). When you configure it, the activities related in custominizg, will appear as well.
    Hope this help
