Is there a mic on a mac book pro

If I wanted to use skype on my mac book, is there an internal mic thats ready to go. Do I need to turn it on somehow?

I have tested Skype on my MBP and have found no problems with either the iSight camera or mike and Skype.

    not unless you have a tracking program such as lojack installed on it or you had "find my mac" enabled on your mac.

  • LP9 not using my Mac Book Pro key commands

    Cheers Folks,
    Is there a preset for the Mac Book Pro key board config. in LP9?  The key commands options menu doesn't specify one.  There was one in LP8.

    Hi
    The "US" preset is set up for a "no numbers" keyboard.

  • The New Thinner Mac book Pro "15 in"

    Hi All,
    Im Simply a PC user,who started to like Applle Products Since i ever Using a iPhone 4
    Basically Im a Graphic Designer,Like i told you im a Pc User,I want to upgrade Myself to Mac book Pro.Reading Rumours on Various Website Says there will be New Thinner Mac book Pro Available By end of April,So do you Guys Suggest me to Wait or go ahead and Purchase the Currently available thicker Mac book Pro "15 in"
    Please Suggest me
    Thanks Guys

    It's just how your post reads, that may bother a few folks. You're asking a perfectly legit question, though... which is how to best invest in a MBP, and to me, at least, that's reasonable.
    Personally, I love the current MBP design, and I don't know if I'd like something thinner as much. More importantly, though, Apple is going to release OSX Mountain Lion "this summer", and, if I had to purchase a new laptop now, I'd certainly wait until the units with Mountain Lion as the default OS have been out for a while. Hardware isn't supposed to be too affected by major OS releases, but you know, it always is. Apple will make some adjustments to their machinery to ensure ML runs smoothly. Count on it.
    Besides, the next generation of displays will probably be better.

  • My Mac Book Pro using Mountain Lion will show a usb headset with a mic to select in the settings window. But the Rosetta Stone software I am using will not find the mic for me to select and use. What should I do?

    Mac Book Pro with OS X Mountain Lion will not recognize headset mic via Rosetta Stone software. What should I do?

    Hi Illaass,
    I am using version 3. I have used the apple/settings on my mac. The headset is appearing there and it is selected there. In the Rosetta Stone select/find window nothing shows up. It is blank. But the volume bars react when I speak and sliding the fader has the expected effect of raising and lowering the input. There is just no device showing up as the selected input device in the Rosetta Stone software.
    I have done everything my Mac instructions say to uninstall and reinstall the Rosetta Stone software properly.
    I'm guessing the problem may be in the licensing. I installed it first on the old hard drive that crashed. Maybe that used the terms of the license and now installing it in the new hard drive violates the license somehow. So that's why it will not work properly. It allows me to open the lessons and asks me if I want to continue from where I left off. I click continue. Then it asks me if I want to register the software. I click the tab for already registered software and click continue. Then nothing happens. So again I click on the button that indicates I want to continue lessons from where I left off. The same process happens with it asking me if I want to register the software. And it will not proceed through a lesson.

  • Got the mic working in Skype w/Windows 7 RC 64 bit on Mac Book Pro

    I managed to get the mic working in Skype running Windows 7 RC 64 bit on my Mac Book Pro.
    It's a Skype problem. The program automatically selects the DIGITAL input. You need to change it to the RealTex internal microphone.
    From Skype, go into Tools -> Options -> Audio Settings and make sure the microphone is selected instead of the digital input.
    Works for me.

    You may need to modify the installer script that may block anything beyond certain build; or install drivers individually.
    Boot Camp 2.1 is now over a year old. There ARE newer drivers on newer later copies of OS X, both retail (10.5.6) and OEM, and in order to be "compatible" those are still 2.0.xxx versions. People have run into trouble installing their newer BC only to have BC 2.1 corrupt their install.
    Snow Leopard includes later drivers and part of BC 3.0.
    I bought Leopard (10.5.0) before I needed or wanted really to - I felt it would need six months to work out the kinks, but I also wanted 'new' Boot Camp, too. Well, it had 2.0 all right, but same drivers as Boot Camp 1.4 beta from Sept '07 and earlier.
    Windows 7 is pretty good about finding what is missing or needed, but there are some motherboard specific drivers it may not provide. Some news sites have said that later builds than 7100 have support for Nvidia logicboards and others that were missing or problematic... but I'd hold off and avoid leaked builds.
    If you can tolerate or live with limited functionality or source drivers and patch things, even the Apple installer and drivers, you may be okay.
    I'm impressed, Windows installer, update, ability to rollback, check points, and how well it runs. Much more reliable and stable and problem free. One thing I would do is make sure you have enough room, and allow 20GB / 24% free space just so you have a couple restore check points in case you need to. It is all too easy to use 10-15GB for those and come in handy.
    Any vendor that writes API and drivers has found they have their work cut out, and that of course includes Kaspersky and others.
    The first and only time I attempted to install Apple Setup Windows put up an alert "Known Incompatible" known to cause stability issues or something. And I was and generally do use the Windows 7 Compatibility Mode for installing drivers (control click).

  • Using multiple desktops with a 4 finger swipe on a Mac Book Pro running Lion- is there a way that I can allow Safari open on several but not all??  Looks like I can set it for one but not others.  All, one, or nothing

    Using multiple desktops with a 4 finger swipe on a Mac Book Pro running Lion- is there a way that I can allow Safari open on several but not all??  Looks like I can set it for one but not others.  All, one, or nothing

    Hey Eric,
    Thanks for taking the time. Unfortunately no that does not solve it. Same as swipe it will get me there and it will show separate programs spaced out. The issue I am having is that all my open word files are bunched up in a pile on top of each other. I can see the edges of each one but I want them to be separated from each other enough that I can visually identify what file is what.
    Again, thanks for trying, it is appreciated.

  • I have a new mac book pro which i use in england but I need to use German charachters frequently, is there a way of having both visable on the keyboard?

    I have a new mac book pro which i use in england but I need to use German charachters frequently, is there a way of having both visable on the keyboard?
    For example so that I can just press shift or another key to get the German character.

    Some may already exist, but you will have to learn them.  On my old system these can be found through keyviewer.app  For example, if I press option+s I get ß   Umlaut is a bit cumbersome as option+u then the actual letter.  It may be possible to bind a key to do this function, possibly through System Preferences > Keyboard > Shortcuts
    I have old, old references for utilities that let you rebind keys to other functions, and you would have to see if they have modern equivalents.
    Ukelele Mac OS X Keyboard Layout Editor - http://scripts.sil.org/cms/scripts/page.php?site_id=nrsi&id=ukelele - mostly useful for character, not function mapping.
    Check Butler, ikeys, quickeys or Spark

    Thanks for nothing, as usual, Apple.
    I had to redo the whole project from scratch on Windows Movie Maker.
    Now I know which brand to trust on my next purchase.

    It won't show up on your Apple TV until it is fully downloaded into iTunes on your computer, have you done this.

    I just want to know if there is a free application or software to use as a jourmal in my mac book pro, I want to be able to record a journal and keep updating it daily.

    Purchase iLife 11  (includes iDVD) on disk.
    IDVD is a wonderful piece of software and well worth the low cost of $40.

    Yes, there are programs that will put a movie on a DVD.   I have tried most of the other substitutes including Toast, Burn, DVD Creator, Wondershare, and others.  None of them come anywhere near the ease-of-use and power of iDVD. IDVD is specifically designed to work with iMovie.

    Hello,
    I am trying to connect my laptop to my TV. The computer flashes blue after I plug the cable in but the TV says there is no signal.
    I have a Mac Book Pro 2009 and a Samsung 32" Class (31.5" Diag.) 450 Series 720p LCD HDTV (2010 model).
    I am using a mini display port to VGA adapter. I have sucessfully hooked up boh devices but it stopped working after a handful of times. I was wondering if there is anything I can do to fix the problem or is my cable broken?

    Some things you can try.

    Thanks for any advise.

    A PowerPC Mac, if that's what it is, won't be able to see an Intel Mac's formatted data.  Also ExFat formatting is not supported by 10.6.3 or earlier.  I would try viewing the backup on another Intel Mac with at least 10.6.4.  If it isn't there, then the backup never really took place.  I much profer a hard drive with Carbon Copy Cloner.

  • I got a Mac Book Pro from my company, and I can't update the apps because they are registered to another Apple ID.  Is there a way to change this so I can update my Apps?

    As it says, I got a Mac Book Pro from my company and I would like to update the apps on it.  They are registered to a former employee's Apple ID, is there anyway for me to change it to my Apple ID?  Or do all of the Apps need to be re-purchased?

    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
    You must repurchase the applications because you can't transfer programs from an Apple ID to another one
