Microphone doesn't work on iPhone headset?

The microphone on my new iPhone earbuds does not work. If I try to make a call I can hear them but they can't hear me. Anyone else encounter this? Am I doing something wrong?

I had this problem too, along with the sound going in and out on the right (mic side) headphone. Took the headphones back to the Apple store and they switched them out with a new pair from one of the floor models. No hassle at all

Just thought that I'd report that I've decided on my solution.
It seems that just making do with what I can find on the US store is the easiest and perhaps also the best way of going about it. All other methods mean trouble. I'm lucky that China hasn't outright blocked the US store, as they HAVE blocked iTunes music store in China already (something about a song about Tibet caused them to block the store entirely).
So yeah, just going to deal with it I guess. I should be grateful I'm getting anything at all, considering the country I'm in. Still, I just feel so ripped off sometimes when I pay for expensive devices and I can't even get much out of them do to my region. iPhones cost around $700 in China because there's no company like AT&T that you can just sign a contract with to get one, so you have to pay up-front for the phone, and get less features out of it in the end. Makes buying smart phones look like a waste of time and money sometimes, since you can't use the device to do what it was built to do due to censorship and not having any content for your region (though they do have a lot of Chinese apps that I can't use due to not knowing Chinese).

Microphone doesn't work anymore

Hi all,
I don't know what happened on both my Mac (iMac 24" Intel and Macbook Late 2009), but on both I cannot use anymore the microphone (integrated or built-in).
I tried using a standard 3.5 jack headset and a USB one and I'm 100% sure that all my headset were working because:
In Windows they works;
They worked on both Mac since few days ago (I'm a trainer and I daily make lessons using Web-ex).
System preferences recognize the audio input (built-in and integrated), but it doesn't work (no activity on the bar, even if I remove the headset).
All software that needs a microphone doesn't work (Webex, Skype...).
I'm sure that there has been an update that compromised the correct functionality, as it is on 2 Mac.
Do you have any suggestion for me? I tested 2x 3.5 jack headset and 2x USB, I had the issue with 10.8.3 and I've it still with 10.8.4 (updated today).
I really don't know what to do!
Thanks in advance!

I have an iMac, Intel Corre i5 running 10.8.5 and the built-in mic is not working.
I have checked System preferences and it is set to built-in mic and not muted. If I physically tap near the built-in mic, I see the sound level bounce. But speaking, even if right next to the mic, doesn't register. In Garage band when I try to record my voice, it only picks up the finger snaps but not my voice (snapping to show a rhythm to my choir).
What is going on?

I'm sure you have checked, but make sure your mute button on the keyboard is not on , also check that you haven't touched the space bar during a call as that mutes it.
Check your settings in Skype>Preferences, Audio/Video tab. Here's what mine look like:

Keynote Remote Doesn't work with iPhone, iPad

Hi,
I have the latest versions of Keynote on my iPhone 5S, iPad 4 and MacBook Pro 13" with Retina Display.
All three devices on the same WiFi network. Using WiFi I was able to remotely control/play the presetatnion between iPhone 5S and MacBook.
However, it doesn't work between iPhone 5S and iPad 4. Any help ?
I tried Bluetooth as well. They seem to not discover each other and neither able to remote control.
Any tips ?
Thanks.

After having to upgrade to the latest version of iOS Keynote (because I edited one of my presentations online through iCloud), I received the message that Keynote Remote is to be discontinued. The alternative they offer is to download Keynote onto your iPhone as they have integrated the remote feature into the full program.
The problem that I found is that space is more of a premium on my iPhone than my iPad and I don't use the full program on the iPhone, as the remote app takes only 3MB and the full app? 444MB.
I hope Apple receive similar complaints about this as nearly half a Gig for what will amount to a remote for Keynote is preposterous. I have already purchased my 16GB 5S, it's not as if I can put more memory in it now.

Microphone doesn't work for Creative Live! Cam Socialize HD AF HD Webcam

Microphone doesn't work for Creative Live! Cam Socialize HD AF HD Webcam (for Windows 7).
I have to use external microphone from Logitech now.
I send few emails to Customer Service. They answered once to check my Device Manager and disappeared after that. I'm really disappointed.
It looks like the drivers for Windows 7 are wrong.

hey Killthebeeping,
if you have the USB Mic connected kindly remove it first then uninstall the audio drivers for your B510.
let windows install its generic driver.
once done plugin your usb mic and test it again.

You don't update using *228 on devices with Sim cards on Verizon. IIRC it'll update automatically or after a restart.

Frequently the earphone and microphone doesn't work and I have to turn off in order to work, it ocurr whit skype and the ipod function, what I have to do?

Frecuently the earphone and the microphone doesn't work, specially with skype and the music (ipod), and I have torestart (turn off) my Ipad !.
What I have to do?
Thanks in advance for your support.

Have you reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen? If that doesn't resolve this, you can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will not lose any data, but all device settings will have to be entered again.
If that doesn't fix it, your next step might be to backup then erase all content and settings or restore the iPad to factory settings. See how if goes if you reset all settings first.

Microphone doesn't work.

So i thought i would update my sound driver. So i came to the website here and DL a realtek sound driver and now my microphone doesn't work. When i go to the 'Recording' Tab in my sound section of Control Panel, it just says "No Audio Devices are Installed."
Any ideas?
Thanks

Try rolling back the driver.

Y50-70 Touch Built-In microphone doesn't work

IPhone 4S microphone doesn's work! Please Help!

My IPhone 4S is about a year and a half old and I got it last february. Now my microphone is not only not working in calls, but it doesn't work in apps either. It only works some of the time in my camera when i'm taking videos and in speaker phone during calls. I don't know what's wrong with it but I guess I'm not the only person with this issue. Also apparently Apple does absolutely nothing about it and just tell you to buy a new one. It seems like all IPhone 4(S) users have this problem eventually. Recently I took my phone off of insurance because of the cost before realizing that it doesn't work properly. Does anyone have suggestions or ways to fix this issue? I definitely cannot afford a new phone right now and i will definitely not be looking into another IPhone when i get an upgrade. Also, does anyone with the 5 have these problems after this long? Apple needs to fix this or they will lose me and possibly many more as a customer.

It seems like all IPhone 4(S) users have this problem eventually.
Nonsense.

Do the basic troubleshooting steps. If they don't work, there is a hardware problem.

My iphone 4 microphone doesn't work

i have this series problem
The microphone sometimes doesn't work , the caller can't hear my voice
i have sent my iphone 4 to apple care they checked it and they replyed that my device is working fine. they sent it back to me!
Now the same problem is happening?!
i have updated to 4.2.1
and the problem still the same.
what shall I do?

I also has this error. My Iphone 4 worked like a charm and then the microphone suddenly goes silent. It´s possible this started when i upgraded to latest firmware 4.2.1.
I can sometimes get it to work with a handsfree but when I pull it out the microphone works for 3sek and then goes silent.
In diffrent forums I have read that this is a common error but I can´t tell if its a hardware or a software- problem.
