Lync doesnot use microphone for audio calls in Mac

Hi,
When Im calling from my Lync the person on the other side cannot hear my voice. Im using lync on my mac. This used to work before but has suddenly stopped working. My lync version is 14.0.10 and my OSX is 10.9.5. I use skype for audio calls on the same machine
and it works well

Hi AshwanG,
You can configure your audio device settings in Lync Preferences. In the Lync Preferences window, click the Audio tab.
If you are having audio problems, and you can't resolve them within the Lync for Mac client, you can specify the input and output devices in your system sound settings:
Open
System Preferences and select Sound.
Select the appropriate settings for "Output" and "Input".
Best regards,
Eric

Unable to select 'Use Phone for audio calls' on Cisco Jabber Client 9.6 for Windows

Hi,
I have recently deployed Cisco Presence Server and integrated with Call Manager 9.1.2. I have successfully deplyed 6700 users on IM & Presence. Some of the users requested for Cisco Jabber with phone control.
I have added CFS client on the Call Manager and associated it with the same extension numbers from their desk phones. I am currently able to make audio and video calls for these specific users. I am currently using Cisco Jabber Client 9.6 for windows. I have users both daisy chained to their desk phones and who are not. Can you please confirm if it does make any difference.
Problem Faced -
I am not able to use to option use phone for audio calls. The phone comes down with a cross sign on it. At the same time Cisco Jabber by default uses the client and it works as expected.
Can you please let me know if any of you guys have faced a similar issue.
Please let me know if you need any information regading the configuration used.
Looking forward for your valuable comments.
Thank you.
Regards,
Joseph Chirayath.

Hi Will,
I am attaching the screen shot for the END USER on CUCM 9.X that has been configured on Cisco Jabber.
Please do let me know if you need any further information.
Thank you.

Who uses STP for audio post professionally

Who uses STP for audio post and can it be used as a alternative to high end audio editor such as protools? Im studying sound design and I completely forgot about STP and I wanna to dig a little deeper and experiment with the program so.....is it any good or shall I save up for protools???

Let me start by saying I'm not an audio engineer but a picture editor. Having said that I feel I can shed a little light on this topic. STP is not ProTools. There are people who love STP and those that hate it. I find it useful in a couple of ways.
1. Creating Noise Prints and reducing background sounds like AC or refrigerator. This is what I predominantly use STP for.
2. Using the Time Stretching tool. You can change the length of an audio clip without affecting the pitch. You can also do this in FCP with a filter but sometimes I find it easier in STP.
3. The Music Beds and Sound Effects. I find these useful whether as temp music or having more choices in SFX.
All that I mentioned above can be done in ProTools. I find that the roundtrip between FCP and STP to be very easy which is why I use it for my needs. If you are studying sound design then my suggestion would be to become knowledgeable in as many software applications as you can. The concepts are the same just the tools are different.
I hope this helps!

Is there a way to switch off by default the video on FaceTime? I only ever use this app for audio/calls and hate the video being on. I especially hate that if I leave the app open to receive calls it means the camera and green light are on.

My issue is that I can't find a way to have the camera switched off when the app is open and so this means if I want the app open all day to receive calls then the camera is going to be on the whole time. Even if it didn't potentially drain the battery, or add to the CPU usage or whatever else may cause any problems whatsoever (wheel of death!), I just don't want the camera on as I don't see myself ever wanting to use the video call feature but I would use the audio/call multiple times throughout the day to make and receive calls. The camera being on when the app is open is enough to prevent me from using the app. Also ever since seeing that episode of criminal minds where if you saw the green light on above the screen then it meant the killer was watching you!
Basically I just can't believe there isn't a way to disable the camera whilst having the app running. I know when initiating an audio call the camera goes away, but I would like the camera away the whole time. To me it just would make sense that if you click the video option then the camera is on, and if you click the audio option then the camera goes off. It just seems waaaaay to basic a thought for apple to have missed... Let's face it, we're not all as pretty as the people in the apple adverts and don't want to see our ugly mugs staring back as us when we work all day at our macs!

I have exactly the same concern. It seems it would be a simple fix for Apple to allow users to turn off the camera (and even the mic) while keeping FaceTime open -- especially now that it turns out FaceTime must remain open in order to send and receive iPhone calls on a Mac.
I like to think this new functionality of FaceTime will be baked into a future release of Yosemite, as the current setup has that not-quite-finished feel of a work in progress. In the meantime, there's nothing like a little piece of Post-It stuck over the camera to keep the NSA from watching your face as you type a post to the Apple Support Communities.

HI I have an Iphone 3GS and the microphone jack works when I play music but not when making phone calls. please help as I use it for conference calls

Hi I use my phone for conference calls and use the microphone jack to connect to speakers. It doesnt work when making phone calls but when i play music on the phone the jack works with the external speaker.

Happy to have been of help. Hope all goes smoothly.
BTW, for the sake of others who may help you here, it's usually most polite if you mark the post that answered your question as being the one that "solves" it, not your own post. That's how people get points here, if a questioner marks their post as either "helpful" or "solving". It's not an issue for me, but for those just starting out in the forums it may be important to them. See:

Can't use microphone to audio chat. Can hear others, no input opt for me.

Quicksilver Dual 1GHz G4
1.5GB RAM
OS 10.4.10
iChat AV 3.1.8
I am unable to audio chat. If others initiate an audio chat with me I can hear them fine. This is not a bandwidth, router, or ISP related issue.
I have professional microphones connected to computer via MOTU 828 mkII FireWire interface. Latest hardware drivers are installed, and the MOTU input/output audio interface is working fine. All sound output is via the MOTU and functioning normally. Microphone levels present in System Preferences / Sound and in Garage Band.
However, iChat AV prefs show no Sound Input options. I am unable to initiate an audio chat.
I have done normal troubleshooting steps such as reinstalling MOTU drivers, restarting all hardware, trashing com.apple.iChat.plist, etc.
I would appreciate any comments or suggestions in helping troubleshooting this. Thanks.

The problem is 10.4.10 which broke the USB audio input. So far I think it affects all divices, in my case it is the internal microphone of my Logitech Pro 5000 camera.
This is the easy and secure workaround without downgrading the whole OS to 10.4.9. You only use the AppleUSB Audio.kext out of the 10.4.9 version. I just did it within 10 min. without any problems and the microphone now works fine! The OS version is still 10.4.10.
1) Download "Pacifist"
http://www.charlessoft.com/
2) Download ComboInstaller 10.4.9. (300 MB)
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx1049comboupdateintel.html
3) Delete the "old" AppleUSBAudio.kext in Macintosh HD->System->Library->Extensions with admin key.
4) Using Pacifist, open the ComboInstaller 10.4.9 (for Intel), extract (not install!) the whole .dmg and search for AppleUSBAudio.kext in the 10.4.9 installer (System->Library->Extensions)
5) Press "Install"
6) Restart

Can i use ipad for making calls

Can i use ipad for making mobile calls Or is it that we can use it for data only.

The iPad is a data only device. However, you can make calls using Apps such as Facetime, Skype, Viber.

How can we use K900 for video call over wifi or 3G

Do we have video calling feature like samsung provides over 3G or wifi? I dont see any option while dialing a number.
thanks

@vinashar,
I would recommend 3rd party apps such as Line or Skype for video calls ... As for future plans to implement video calls in the Lenovo dialer, I am not sure.
Thanks

I have two time capsules (1TB, 2TB) and want to use one for another set of Macs (my Family). How do I set both up and keep all the Macs from joining both Time Capsules?

I Have two Time Capsules (1TB and 2TB) and want to set one for business and the other for family - networking seperate Macs to each.

Both should be plugged into the network with ethernet.. if at all possible.
If you have a router already then both bridged otherwise one set to router and one to bridge.
How do you access the TC? Ethernet or wireless?
Are they located in the same area?
You could set different wireless networks.. if they use wireless.. this is nice easy way to do it.
You can set user account in the TC you want the business one to join with.. that will prevent access by the family.
So there is a number of ways.. none are particularly secure btw.. the TC is a home not a business device.. if anybody wants access they press the reset for one second.. pofff all the passwords are default for 5min.. to allow people who forget their password to get access.
On ML you can encrypt TM backups.. this is better for security if that is the problem.. and still use different user profile to prevent access.

I have used Firefox for years on my Mac laptop for years, I tried to update to version 4 and now I have no Firefox and every time I download the the Firefox the emblem has a awhite circle with a cross through it, so I can't drag it to applications.

The support page is ridiculous, it assumes you already have Firefox and that the install went fine. I am having trouble with an update to Version 4. I have an ibook G4 running OS X. I have used Firefox for years. When I downloaded the update, the Firefox logo thing that you are supposed to drag to the Applications folder has a white circle with a line through it. I have rebooted many times and have updated all other software.

Hello,
I wouldn't trust any Firefox "update" from a non-Mozilla website. Sometimes, unofficial builds contain adware or malware. If you want to use Firefox for AOL do so at your own risk.

How to use Quickbooks for non-profit on mac

I run a non-profit and need to use QUickbooks for non-profit but this version of quickbooks is only made for PC. Is there a way I can run this software on my mac? Does Virtual PC software for macs work well? ANyone run Quickbooks for PC on a mac? Is there any other way to do this?

Artist --
Welcome to Apple Discussions !
I would highly recommend that you get the Mac version.
You can find more about it here
http://quickbooks.intuit.com/
Virtual PC slows everything down tremendously.
Plus, it opens your Mac to be vulnerable to viruses.
Get the Mac Version.
It's worth the investment,
in my humble opinion.
Hope this helps,
and sending you all the best wishes
for your non-profit.
I'm a former nonprofit staffer, so I know what you're up against.
Onwards & upwards !

Using Skype for video call on iPad2

I installed Skype for iPad and when I try to place a video call, the video button is present but not active. I have gone through the audio test call several times and that works fine. How do I activate the video function?

Barry-
Looking at preferences and settings, I can not find any way to change access to the video button. I see it is not active when you place a call to the audio test server, but that is to be expected.
I had a problem with the Macintosh iChat video program, where video was not available when my internet access was too slow to support video. I do not know if that applies to Skype or not. If you can have someone call you using their video button to make the call, your Skype video may activate and work correctly in the future.

Select microphone for audio driver?

Please excuse my bad english.
Microphone is connected to PC. In the Windows' tool "Sound" -> "Recording" there are 2 microphones: first one which is built-in laptop, second one which is connected to audio card inlet.
With audio driver "ASIO4ALL v2" choosen at Edit -> Audio Hardware Setup -> Multitrack View -> Audio Driver recording comes from built-in microphone.
With "Generic Low Latency ASIO Driver" choosen recording comes from connected microphone. This microphone is better, but because of driver the recording sounds badly.
Can I use connected microphone with ASIO4ALL driver?
Thank you for your attention.
Audition version - 3.0
Windows 7.

Your external microphone may be better but may not match the audio card mic input very well. Built in soundcards are really only meant for gaming playback or Skype communication purposes and are not good quality. So your mic might not sound any better even if you could pick it up in ASIO4All. However if you open ASIO4All's set up options you should be able to select the external mic there and use that instead of the internal one.

How to set up Touch to use Skype for phone calls?

I use Skype with my iMac for making phone calls and would like to do the same with my new iPod Touch. I've looked in the Touch User's Guide but have not been able to find a procedure for setting up the Touch to accomplish this. I would appreciate feedback on how to do this from those who are successfully using Skype with their Touch units. One thing I am curious about is whether I can sync my Touch with the Skype program--including phone numbers-- already present on my iMac.

Yes and no... you will have two versions of Skype on your computer, but one will only be appearing in iTunes and your iPod since they are two different app.
You can still have both Skype application open and loged into your account at the same with no problem. There is no special setup to do on your iPod more than login into your account and having credits into your account, exactly as you probably done with Skype on your computer.

Lync Dispalying wrong Name for inbound calls

We have Active Directory running on Windows 2012 R2 Domain Controllers. We have Exchange 2010 and LYNC 2013. We have presence integration with our Avaya CM ver 6.x.
We have had a few employee's leave and have re-assigned their desk phone extensions to new employee's. The old employee's were removed from Active Directory and the LYNC server.
On the LYNC 2013 client when a call comes in it is showing the old employee's name on the LYNC Client.
I have deleted the local LYNC Addressbooks at the client.
Still happening.
Where to look for the file containing the old employee that is causing this mismatch.
Thank you,

Hi WillieWinslow,
Agree with Paul.
Before starting a new test, you can check the following items.
1. Make sure the contact who has left the company is not existing in the user’s Outlook Contact folders.
2. (Optional)Run Update-CsUserDataBase to force Back-End to
re-read all the user-related information stored in Active Directory Domain Services.
Delete the .slabs file from the file share sitting on X:\share\1-WebServices-1\ABfiles\000000000\000000000 folder.
3. Run Update-CsAddressBook
4. Delete the test user’s Lync profile on the test machine.
After doing the above, it should be able to solve your problem.
Best regards,
Eric
