Kinect not working as a microphone?

in skype my kinect wont work as a microphone... i know it picks up my voice though as voice commands are working,,, just skype wont pick it up.. any ideas how to fix?

Hm, that's strange.
I can think of few other things to check:
1. In Xbox One settings > Kinect, check if "Use Kinect microphone for chat" is turned on
2. In Xbox One settings > Privacy, check if "Communicate with voice and text" is not blocked
In case you have not tried yet, maybe one of these things may also help:
3. Restart Xbox One
4. Reinstall Skype
5. Disconnect/reconnect Kinect

Line-in port not working with powered microphone

I'm not sure if this is an issue of me not understanding how line-in ports work or if there is actually something wrong with the line-in port/jack. So, I have a Sony microphone that is powered by one AA battery. The microphone has no problems because I can plug it in to my voice recorder and it works fine. However, when I plug it in to the line-in port of my PB, the PB does not pick up any sound. And yes, I have made sure that in the Sound preferences, I selected input source as "Line-in."
So, does this mean there is something wrong with the port, or does it mean I need to plug my powered microphone into an amplifier which plugs into the PB or....?
Thanks!

Hi Conal
There's probably nothing wrong with your line-in port - it's just that you've discovered the difference between "line level" signals and "mic level" signals! To put it simply, the output from a microphone (whether it operates on battery power or not) is far too low for a line level input to recognise - hence the reason you are not picking up sound on the PB. (Your voice recorder will be picking up sound because it's operating at mic-level).
The only way around this is to plug your mic into some form of pre-amp and then plug the line level output of the pre-amp into your PB. Personally I use a Tascam US-122 audio/midi interface and run the signals into the PB on USB. Works extremely well but I'm sure you'll be able to find a cheaper alteranative with a little bit of searching.
Hope this helps.

Why won't my IMac Mid 2007 not work with ANY Microphone?

So I have recently received an IMac (Mid 2007) model that is used from my uncle. It is in GREAT condition with one flaw which I found out during a skype call. The mic didnt work. So I opened preferences, went to sound, went to input and saw that it was in "Internal Microphone". I changed it to Line In and used a separate microphone, still didnt work. Used another microphone to make sure it wasnt broken, didnt work. I have been looking online and didnt find anyone with my problem. It is so weird and I can't figure it out. On the other line the only time my friend (in the skype call) could hear anything was when I plugged in the external microphone and he thought it might work. I tried the sound with photo booth, skype, and just plain old volume. PLEASE HELP! I need to skype during my work on the computer!!! Thank you very much!
Also If you are willing to help out with other questions please do.
I have seen people run Windows 8 on a Mac product and would be willing to do that if there are no side effects to the cpu. Please tell me if there are any issues doing that, and if not tell me how.
This computer has 2GB of ram right now and is expandable to 6GB of ram. Is it possible to expand it over 6? And is it very difficult?
Should I upgrade to Mavericks. It is free and easy to download but I have been told that due to my low ram I should wait until I pump it up to 4 or 6GB of ram and then upgrade.
THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!

Isnt line in just a fancy word for a plug that looks like headphones?
No. The term "line in" refers to the signal level the input can accept. It has nothing to do with the type of socket/plug.
I just checked what Line in is and i do have a line in spot in my mac. So why would i need to buy the IMic?
Because you need a microphone-level input, which can accept the lower level of signal that a microphone puts out, and again, no Mac has had a microphone-level input in years. Line level is a much stronger signal.
So you need:
- a microphone that puts out a line-level signal. There are a few, but not many.
or
- a USB microphone
or
- an audio device that can accept a microphone-level signal. The Griffin iMic is one, but there are others.

I upgrade my iph4 to ios 7.1.2 and the microphone is not working on video camera, is not working anymor also the microfon on speaker mode, please help me

Hy guys, i upgrade my ios 7.1.1 to 7.1.2 and now iths not working anymore my microphone on video record, the camera is working , is recording but without sound, and also the microphone on speaker, when i activat the speaker the microphon is not working. I do a full reset on my iph but still not working , also my girlfriend have same problem.Please help me, thx.

To rule out a software issue, try to set it up as new device, without using the latest backup, explained in this article:
How to back up your data and set up as a new device
If this does not help, the problem might be hardware related and the phone needs to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

Xonar D1 front panel microphone not working in kernel 2.6.33

It is not possible to record anything from my front panel microphone jack after I updated kernel to 2.6.33.
It still works OK with kernel 2.6.32.10, but does not work with 2.6.33.3, and it did not work with 2.6.33.rc8 too. The front panel switch in alsamixer switches only output but not input (mic) now. Before, the switch had impact on both output and input.
When I activate the back panel on the card everything is working well (back panel connectors are active, front panel connectors are inactive). When I activate the front panel then the front panel microphone is not working (back panel microphone works). The alsamixer front panel switch does not have impact on the microphone any more and no switch was added to control the microphone separately from the output.
The alsa version is 1.0.23.
I use 32 bit kernels. My brother uses 64 bit kernels and the problem is the same for him too. Although he uses Xonar DX.
Any idea how to get this fixed?

I'm also having trouble with the 2800pci driver. I installed the v26 firmware from the PKGBUILD in this thread, and it does scan as Cdh says, but will not connect...

The rt2860sta driver does work, but only at G speed not N. I also tried the ralink 2.3.0.0 driver, but it is even slower than the kernel driver. With 2.6.32 kernel, I was able to get N speed from their 2.1.2.0 driver, but that one won't compile anymore. I've had nothing but trouble with this card for the last year.
I'm very tempted to just buy another card, but I'm not sure which one to buy.

HT5176 Dictation was working this morning..now not WORKING,,help

Dictation was working this morning...and now not working..the microphone looks like its working but won't type????

There is currently a suggested fix going around on the form so you can try this.
Go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings. Then go to Settings>General>Keyboard>Dictation>Off. You will have to then turn dictation on again and it takes a minute or so to reset the action with the Apple servers.

Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

Sighhhh, wasted so much time yesterday and today going around Sony centre and then carphone warehouse. They told me to come back after Easter.
I came home, banged the phone against the wall and it worked.
Turned out that mic was working on loud speaker and when using headphones so I thought that the secondary mic is working and the main one (placed with the speakers) isn't. So I banged that part against the wall slightly (in plastic case to prevent scratches) then put the phone underwater, waited for it to dry and now it's working. Idk how well and if it's of perfect quality again but people can hear me well.

IPhone 4 Microphone not not working on voice calls but voice memos, viber, skype & facetime work just fine!! Any suggestions?

Hi Everyone,
I have encountered the following problem which I think a lot of other fellow iPhone users are also encountering however mine seems to be fairly pecuilar.
Here's the issue;
When making or receiving voice calls via my network operator's service, no one can hear me, i.e my audio input. I can hear the person on the other end of the phone fine but they can't hear me whatsoever.
However when I use the likes of viber, skype and facetime, my audio input is perferctly fine and the person on the other end of can hear me.
Note both viber and skype calls work just fine and 2 way communication is audbile regardless if I have a 3G or Wifi connection. Plus I have full singal bar strength when near a mobile tower so that elimantes antenna issues.
Also have taken alternative turns to cover both the top mic and the bottom mic during a viber or skype call and my audio input can still be heard.
I've done a reset, a hard reset of the phone and a reset of the network settings, still to no avail.
Have updated iOS to the latest version 5.1.1
Any suggestions would be much appreciated?
Thanks

I have the exact same problem, I have already restored the phone and it didn't work. The microphone works with facetime, skype and the voice memos. What just doesn't make sense is that when I use my earphone's microphone when calling, it doesn't work either. If it was a hardware problem the earphone's microphone would have worked I suppose.
This is the second iPhone 4 I have. The first one shut off after 9 months so I got a replacement phone. The replacement phone lasted 10 months when the microphone stopped working. I went to the apple store and they just couldn't give me a solution. They understood my situation and told me that it was very weird but all they could offer me was that I had to pay for a replacement. This is absolutely unjust, why do we costumers have to pay for the companies mistakes.

Internal Webcam and Microphone not working after Screen Fix

I own a HP Envy Spectre XT Ultrabook, and last week I tried to use the webcam and the microphone for the first time in a few months.
However I was shocked to find that Skype kept saying that the webcam was not detected. The microphone also could not register any sound.
Device Manager did not show any imaging devices or the webcamera, even after setting it to view non-present devices.
A check using msinfo32 did not review the webcamera either, and there were no problem devices.
Control Panel >> Sound showed that the Internal Microphone using IDT High Definition Audio Codec was enabled and working, however it could not detect any sound. All drivers are checked to be up-to-date.
I suspect this has something to do with the screen repair last month which a HP on-site technician came down to replace my screen, although I cannot be 100% sure. Although the screen is now working, the technician did not do a good job reassembling the screen - the bottom left corner of the screen cover has not be able to attach properly to the screen.
I have gone through my BIOS setup to make sure that there is no webcam disabled.
I have tried rolling-back and reinstalling the drivers for the microphone but it did not work.
I have tried uninstalling CyberLink YouCam (laptop preinstalled webcam software).
Please help, these two components are very important to me as I am going overseas soon. The laptop is still under warranty.

Hey ajun,
Thank you very much for the information!
For troubleshooting your Webcam, I would suggest taking a look at the document Webcam Troubleshooting (Windows 7). I would suggest the two options Video does not appear in your webcam software (such as YouCam, Skype, Messenger, ect.), and Webcam is not listed in Device Manager.
For your internal microphone not working either, please take a look at the document Resolving Microphone and Line-in Problems (Windows 7). From this document, I would suggest following the top two symptoms.
Please let me know the outcome of these troubleshooting steps.
Good luck, and have a great day!

[XP64] Microphone does not work in WinXP 64

Hi,In Windows XP 64bit my microphone does not work, tried it in Ventrilo 2., Skype and even in the Windows Recorder. The computer don't detect any sound. Offcourse?I have selected the microphone in the recordering section in the Windows volume panel and the volume at maxium. Also in the volume panel under playback the microphone is not mute, set to max volume. I have also installed WinXP 32bits and here it works OK with exactly the same settings. Thats why I think it is because of my Soundcard driver, I have installed the latest driver from this site. I have a SoundBlaster X-Fi Fatality. Is there anyone with a X-Fi soundcard with the same problem or anyone where the microphone works in WinXP 64bit's Or is it a known problem?Please help me

Hi Theicewarrior,?Creative support has been aware of this issue for quite some time (6+ months, maybe even a year). The 4GB+?RAM driver/addressing issues are not a priority or they would have been addressed quite some time ago.
Presumably this is due to functional Vista drivers for the masses being a higher priority than the relati'vely few of us with 4GB+ RAM and an X-Fi.
While the X-Fi?is a great card, my only wish was that the vendor was forthright about this product not functioning with certain configurations. It is my feeling that?making an effort to help?customers choose?products that will work with their configurations would result in satisfied and repeat customers?and a better bottom line?as opposed to?eeking a few extra dollars out of a slightly larger customer base and?who are then left unsatisfied with a product and unwilling to buy a company's products in the future.Message Edited by Foddan on 07-9-20070:45 AM

Microphone does not work in Facetime

Hi
I read other posts and in Maverik I didn't find simmilar problem, for most people their microphone does not work after few minutes, but in my case, microphone does not work at all in Facetime, so I can hear the other end, but they can not hear me! This happened after updating Mavericks.
My Mac specs:
Macbook Pro 2013
OSx 10.9.1 (Mavericks)
things I already tested:
I tried to use headphone and without headphone, but it didn't make any difference
Microphone works fine in Skype and other softwares (Audacity, YahooMessenger, etc.)
Tried with WiFi and with Ethernet cable
Internet speed is 2.3MBps
Router's firewall does not have any restriction for certain ports
Tried turning facetime Off and On
Tried to call iPhone 5s, iPad2 and MacBook Pro each in different network and different countries!
... and finally searching internet for hours (which obviously came up with nothing)
I'll be thankful if somebody help me through, all suggestions are welcome, so please don't hesitate to post.

Same issue here....
8-core Mac Pro, Lion, Original External iSight camera connected via FireWire 400 through the FireWire jack on the 23" Apple Cinema Display.
Audio and video work fine using iChat and making video clips through any/all apps.
However, using FaceTime.....incoming audio and video are fine, outgoing video is fine, but outgoing audio is missing. Nobady can hear me.
Sorry guys...you can't doll this one up or spin it in any other direction......it's a bug pure and simple.
Feel free to fix it whilst you're dealing with all the other problems that Lion has.

My microphone does not work on calls on my iPhone 4

Don't ask me what has happened and I have been through all of the troubleshooting that I can on my own.
I have no clue how to get a hold of a LIVE AT&T person or APPLE person.
The problem is my microphone does not work when I use the telephone, whether I make the call or someone calls me. It is NOT the MUTE button. And yes, I have already rebooted my iPhone about 5 times now. Has not fixed it either.
But the microphone DOES work as I was able to record a new voicemail greeting to let people know my phone isn't working.
So, they could call me all day long but they won't hear me, so who do I call using my landline (thankfully I kept it).
It is the day after Thanksgiving and I would be a fool to head over to the Apple Store or the AT&T Store....
Thank-you,
Marcia

Try disconnecting the headphones and then adjusting the volume, does it say headphones?
There might be something in the headphone jack, maybe lint, dirt, or something else in there.
Take a look at this Apple document for more information -> iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers

Yoga 2 Pro microphone not working

Hi all!
I am now owning my Yoga 2 for a week and since yesterday I tried Dragon and Skype, but had to realize that the internal microphone(s) are not working!
I reinstalled the drivers automatically as well as manually, deactivated the device, deactivated the Lenovo Smart Voice App and changed any possible settings for mics (put it of course to maximum levels).
The Lenovo hotline here in Germany has no clue and only suggested to wait for new drivers.
Does anyone else has the same problem or do I have a faulty machine? In combination with the yellow-problem I am tempted to return the Yoga 2 as long as I can. Because if it is a hardware problem, the repair will take up to 2 weeks. Does anyone have suggestions for alternatives?
Thanks!

I sent my unit back 6 days after receiving it and they continue to delay shipment on the replacement item. I was told on the phone that I should expect 10 business days for a confirmation email on the replacement getting shipped out. Never got an email, had to go through rude customer service to find out they weren't shipping until after Christmas. Then got another update saying they wouldn't ship until sometime in January next year. In the meantime, their website was still guaranteeing Christmas eve delivery on new units up until a couple days ago. So basically if you pay for and receive a defective unit, you're LAST priority on getting a replacement unit. Now currently trying to cancel my order. Had they bothered to send me updates with reasons such as "we're working on fixing a few issues before sending out the next shipment" that would at least have been an explanation. Switched from Dell due to poor customer service, Lenovo doesn't seem much better.

Re: Satellite Pro L500-1PU - internal microphone does not work

I have an L500 -1PU Toshiba, running on 32 bit Windows 7,
The webcam is working wonderfully but the internal microphone is not working properly.
I had an external microphone so i hadn't noticed this problem when i got on skype, but i've recently discovered that when using the webcam the person on the other end can hear faint noises from my computer when i'm playing music or watching a video clip.
How can i solve this and get my microphone working properly such that i can control the volume and actually get full service from my otherwise decent notebook?
Thanks

Hi
Possibly this Toshiba FAQ could help you:
+Whistling sound on the Satellite L500+
http://aps2.toshiba-tro.de/kb0/TSB0402UB0001R01.htm
Its a matter of the settings.
This issue occurs if the microphone volume in the speakers properties is enabled.
After disabling this point the issue with acoustic feedback does not appear anymore.
Hope this helps!

I have 4s iPhone , I download the iOS 7. Now the front receiver microphone is not working , please help me that how to fix the problem.

I live in South Africa, and I had the same problem with my iPhone 4.
After weeks of frustration and swearing, I was in the process of restoring my phone to a previous iOS. To do that you need to turn the "Find my iPhone" option off, since i turned it off, my problem was solved. No need to repair anything or revert back to old iOS.
***** that i cant use Find my iPhone, but atleast i can use my phone.
