Microphone Jack on Dockingstation and T500

Hi,
I just installed Win7/64 on my T500. It seems that everything is working ok. However, Windows doesn't recognize a microphone beeing plugged into the dock's mike jack, headphone jack works though.
If I plug it into my T500 directly, it works.
I am using the Win7 audio-driver because 6ea111w conexant driver for xp and vista doesn't install. (no devices found)
Has anybody similar problems and a solution?

Hey @Tololino ,
Welcome to the HP forums.
I understand you have some questions about the audio connection on your Stream 7 tablet.
Could you please clarify what you mean by not working? Does sound continue you play from the internal speakers and record from the microphone when the headset is connected? Do the headphones work but the microphone doesn't? Could you please clarify this for me.
The service guide for the Stream 7 series tablets lists the audio port as a "headphone/microphone combo jack, 3.5 mm." A 3.5mm connection should work fine.
Is your headset detected in the audio playback and recording devices? To see these long press (right click) on the speaker icon to open playback or recording devices.
If it's listed in here you may need to change the audio playback and recording device settings to use the headset instead of internal speakers or microphone.
Thanks.

How do I use a headset with separate headphone and microphone jacks on my macbook air

I have a new macbook air and a headset with separate headphone and microphone jacks. Where (how) do I plug in the microphone jack into the computer?

This adapter and sufficient length VGA cable is all you need.

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:

No microphone jack and my headphone jack isn't working. N858

I just got a Lenovo N585, and I've got to say it's one confusing laptop, at least for me. Well I tried plugging in my headphones into the head phone jack, and its works externally, but there is no sound coming out of my head phones. I am wondering if theres some program I have to run to make it work correctly. Also why is there not a microphone jack?

Hi Awkwardness2,
Thanks for posting and Welcome to Lenovo Community,
the machine has combo audio jack ,which is 1 socket for the speakers and the microphone
you need to buy a new headphone with combo audio jack or get an adapter to fix this issue
let me know if that fix the issue or not

Y410p Front headphone and microphone jacks not working after repair

I recently (last month) sent my IdeaPad Y410p in to Lenovo for repairs due to the laptop not turning on, or repeatedly restarting at the BIOS screen. The laptop was repaired by Lenovo (they replaced the motherboard), and returned it to me. The laptop has worked great sincce then, except that the two USB ports on the right side and the headphone and microphone jacks do not work. I have reinstalled the audio drivers, twice, but have not reinstalled the chipset drivers at all, as I don't want to screw around with those untiol I no more about what I should do. Any help would be appreciated.

Hi Talonek, welcome to the forums,
the problem you are experiencing is probably due to the cable connecting the ports on the right side, front of system, to the mainboard unfortunately not being connected or connected properly. Please see pdf page 52 of the system's Hardware Maintenance Manual.
I've never taken an Y410p apart, but having looked at the manual the cable connection may well be accessible to check / fix by removing the hard drive. Another alternative would be to call service and ask them to do this for you.

W520 - No microphone jack

I recently purchased a new W520 laptop and was trying to plug in my headset with built in microphone for using skype. My old thinkpad T500 had two audio jacks, one for headphones/speakers and one for a microphone, right on the front. My headset also has 2 3.5 mm jacks. The new W520 only has a single audio jack with a picture of a headset with microphone above it. How can I plug my headset in? Do I need a different type of headset, or is there some kind of joining adapter I can get that will allow me to plug in a my dual jack headset to the laptop?
Will this do what I need or is this only for combining two audio signals of the same type (i.e. 2 input or 2 output, not one input and one output)

Hi calculate, and welcome to the Lenovo Community!
That won't work :-(. It's just a Y splitter, and only a three-conductor splitter at that.
Check this knowledge base for adapters community members have found:

Lenovo G505S microphone jack

There is none lol. When I bought this laptop, in the store there was 1x microphone jack. Lol not really. I have one gaming headset and I can't use it, becuse it's microphone and audio needs separate jacks. Any good suggestion, how to fix it? Becuse first of all, when I insert my audio, the internal mic is not working too, and secondly, internal mic is one of the crappiest I have ever seen lol. So, in conclusion, I need to use my gaming headset on this comp, HOW?

hi dataplayer,
Thanks for posting and sorry to hear about your trouble.
If you only see one jack for the mic/headphone then it's most likely an audio combo jack as discussed in this article.
If your gaming headset uses a separate connector for the mic/headphone then you will may need to get a PC Headset to 3.5mm adapter (like this item).

Route sound output to microphone jack?

Hi,
I have a 5.1 Soundsystem I want to use.
My Notebook has 2 headphone jacks and one microphone jack.
Is it possible to route the sound so that micropone jack outputs front/center headphone1 gives front and headphone 2 gives rear with ALSA?
I already used the board search and found a thread that links to this page. But I did not really understand what's done in this .asoundrc file.

You will have to experiment with ttable entries, to see if it will work - see upmixing examples.

Microphone jack not working

I have an HP G60 Notebook PC and whenever I want to feed something into the microphone jack it records badly. What I'm trying to do is directly feed audio into the microphone jack. I can get it to work on another laptop perfectly but for some reason when I do it on my HP it sounds like its playing back underwater. Its distorted and the volume varies. Any help would be awesome.

YOU should look at these two other threads

Question : My father recently bought me a new Headset. It's a great Headset with good quality(I GUESS) and a microphone which is what I need.(SORRY IF THIS OFFENDED YOU) Anyway, I was disappointed when I noticed there was a microphone input/wire, there wasn't any microphone jack for it on the computer/laptop. It would be a waste of money if I would have to switch inputs/outputs. Is there a possible way to use the headphones and the microphone simultaneously? Please help, I've been wanting a Headset with a microphone and I finally received one and this occured. Please help. I don't want to purchase any external thing for the microphone jack, if I do, Apple should re-design the MacBook Pro, sorry, though. I don't think the Apple earphones or Ear pods came along with this computer/laptop, so, why only one jack for the headphones? Anyway, sorry for any offensive feedback or sayings. Thank you, though.

Use a usb port and usb adapter. There is no mic in on Mackbook Pros. Return the headset for a uisb headset with mic.

Presario C751NR Microphone jack not detected, internal Mic works OK

I made sure that I have the most current Conexant audio driver installed: http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareDownloadIndex?softwareitem=ob-64867-1&lc=en&dlc=en&cc=us〈=en&os=2093&product=3646600 When I plug a microphone into the microphone jack on the front, the driver does not detect the change and maintains a connection to the microphone built in to the display lid. Going in to the control panel and looking at the microphone's "Jack Information" indicator dot when an external microphone is plugged in shows it staying black. Does anyone have any ideas? It has always been like that, but I would like to be able to use the microphone jack. System is running Vista Home Premium (32 Bit) with SP2 and all current system updates.

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
It's possible your premier pro is confusing it, does it work without that connected ?
Plantronics claim that device is OSX compatible and doesn't need any drivers (even though the mode is discontinued)

Sound Blaster X-Fi I/O - Windows 7 RC - Microphone jack not working

Hey all,
I've recently installed the Windows 7 RC and am running the Beta drivers on it. I have a weird problem with it where the Microphone jack is being recognised as line-in, but all of the controls for the actual line are in the microphone properties. For instance, I can enable the +20dB boost, which will affect the sound coming through line-in, but it still won't recognise the actual Microphone.
Any ideas why this is? Previous behaviour in Vista was that the Microphone jack was recognised as one and I could control the recording settings from there...

Sorry fffcmad,
Everything you said in your post does not apply to the Titanium.
The mic shares the line-in on a channel called FlexiJack. There is a tab in the "Settings" window in which you can switch between the two. You can find that window by opening the "Game Mode" window and click "Settings" on the bottom of that window. However, the problem is that mic detection is very unstable and you have to have luck to get it to work. The next step is to select the "Microphone" channel by clicking the arrow above the right-most fader in the "Game Mode" window. However, for some odd reason that option often fails to popup there. Often you'll find "Microphone FP" (note the "FP" in the name and it stands for "Front Panel") which is only available in the version with the front panel! The FlexiJack one is called "Microphone" (with the "FP" in the name). Rebooting might help, but often it doesn't. Changing input devices and changing them back might work, but often it doesn't.
Also, the Titanium has no mic boost. That is a real problem, because the mic volume is extremely low.
The short answer: The Titanium's drivers are unstable.

No sound though microphone jack in Windows 7 (Bootcamp).

I'm having a problem where the microphone that came with my webcam is not working in Windows 7. The OS seems to know when it's plugged in and when it is unplugged, but it is not picking up any sound through it. I've tried enabling it, disabling it, rolling back the drivers (which makes the headphones jack stop working), and un/reinstalling the drivers. Importantly, the microphone does work in OSX Lion. I don't have another microphone to test it with, but I'm relatively sure it is not a problem with the microphone and rather is a problem with the Windows drivers. Here's the driver information:
Driver: Cirrus Logic CS4206B (AB35)
Date: 4/14/2011
Version: 6.6001.1.32
And here's the system information:
2011 Mac Mini 2.5GHz i5 with 4Gb RAM and AMD Radeon HD 6630M graphics
Running Windows 7 UItimate 32bit on Bootcamp version 4.0
If there's more information needed, let me know. Thanks!

Audio device driver: Mini uses ? I know some Macs use RealTek and others have Cirrus so whatever you have, then RealTek is easy to deal iwth and install, Cirrus is harder to find and install.
Audio pretty much does not work w/o user manually updating
