PC Headset Mic not detected

I have a Geemarc hearing aid compatible headset from http://www.sonicalert.com/products-listening-devices-CLA3.html and a splitter adapter from http://www.startech.com/Cables/Audio-Video/Audio-Cables/35mm-4-Position-to-2x-3- Position-35mm-Headset-Splitter-Adapter-Male-to-Female~MUYHSMFF connected to the iPad but the external headset mic isn't detected and the iPad continues using the internal mic. The headset uses an electret mic. I wear hearing aids and cannot use original Apple's earpods or in-ear headphones. The headset works but the boom mic doesn't and the sound is only picked up by the internal mic. Do you have any solution for this issue?

i have the same problem
my phone is n70
windows xp (sp2)
pc suite 6.81
when i connect my cable(CA-53) windows note a log says
"usb device not recognized" and then nothing happens
when i open device manager i just find an unknown device
under "universal serial bus controllers" that no driver installed for it
i re-installed my pc suite and even my windows but the same
notification
please advise me

Pavilion dv6 mic not detected. Windows 7 64-bit.

mic not detected during speech recording, skype, or ym. tried setting up mic in the configuration in control panel, installing updated driver for idt high def audio CODEC but still does not work

Hello waynenixcpa!
Congratulations on the new computer! I would be happy to assist you with the syncing issue.
First, I would like to suggest deleting the current partnership. Instructions for deleting the partnership: 1) Ensure the device is disconnected from the computer. 2) Launch WMDC. Navigate Start > (All Programs) Windows Mobile Device Center. 3) From Mobile Device Settings, click >>more (located in the lower-right corner). 4) Click End a partnership. 5) Select the partnership then click End partnership. Next, I would soft reset your phone, and restart your computer. Then you can re-create another partnership for syncing with Outlook and your device. Now you should have the option to sync Contacts, Calendar, Email, Tasks and etc...
Please let me know how this works out for you.

MBA Mid 2012 - Bootcamp Win7: Headset Mic not recognised in Win7

Hi,
I have a MBA 13" (only had it about a week...). I put bootcamp on and Win 7 x64 ultimate. All is working really well except when I plug my headset in, Win 7 only recognised the headphones.
I have tried this in OSX and the mic work, its an Iphone compatible headset, so not only does the mic work but the volume buttons on headset work also. However, when I plug this in when in Win 7, no external Mic is detected.
Any ideas? I've tried reinstalling the Bootcamp audio drivers, no change. Unable to locate any online either...Cirrus Logic CS4206b (AB 86).
I have seen a few of these posts online, but from about 2 years ago... has this been fixed yet?
Thanks

Hi,
Thanks for your reply. The issue is with Windows, but it appears to be due to OSx drivers from bootcamp, that does not detect both input and output from the headphone jack. There are no drivers required, I have used this headset on various other Win7 x64 machines.
As above, it works fine in OSx, it is just that bootcamp drivers for the soundcard do not include that the hardware on my MBA allows both input and output from the same jack. Ms dont supply drivers for Bootcamp.
Thanks.

External mic not detected? (R705)

Hi all, I recently got an R705 but am having an issue with the mics. Somehow the computer can't detect any external mics that I have plugged in too the mic jack, and in turn doesn't disable the internal one. Whatever I try to record just gets picked up by the internal mic, nothing else.
I've gone through the Realtek settings to no avail, and can't find the usual windows volume control. (I assume the Realtek settings replaced them?) The microphone properties menu yielded no results either, none of the settings I tried allowed the external mic to work.
Any ideas? I hope it's just a software issue...
Thanks!

Interesting...I'm having the exact opposite problem w/my Satellite L455-S5975 laptop.
My computer can't detect the internal mic, but will detect the external mic when I plug something into the jack. The internal mic won't record anything. I'm trying to use it for Skype conferences.
I've also gone through the Realtek settings to no avail. When I trouble shoot I get the below screen. Problem is, I can't click the option to set is back as my default.
Any ideas on how to solve.
Thanks!

Integrated Webcam/Mic not detected after re-instal/recovery of windows 7

HP Pavilion dv7, Product number: A6X02UA#ABA
So... After recovering windows and installing the minimum recovery image (No extra junk or files) I have a squeaky clean computer with the bare minimum on it. Everything is working great, Until I installed Skype and found I have no integrated webcam, or mic anymore. In the Device Manager, There is no imaging devices. It also says ALL drivers installed are up to date.
I have read everyone’s answer that "if its not in the device manager, its a hardware problem i.e. the short cable that comes unplugged behind the screen" But it is impossible... or at least 99.9% improbable. As I used Skype successfully prior to the reinstall of windows 7, and did not move the computer, close/open the screen, unplug, or even sneeze on this thing since last using the camera and mic. The only thing that has changed was the windows recovery. So far everything else works great. Even the Biometrics device. Why not the cam or mic?

Hello Nostopin,
I'll posted the link as an example of how to find a hardware ID in general.
However if you cannot find the webcam in the device manager which sounds strange to me if it was working correctly before, then there is no way to install drivers for it because windows does not recognise the hardware.
Believe me that I would like to give you a working driver but I cannot give you one simply because I have no hardware ID.
As far as I know there are three options now.
1 The hardware is broken
2 You didn't see the hardware ID (Which I doubt after your story.)
3 this video http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c02452221&lc=en&cc=us&dlc=en#N70
In my opinon there are no other options with the information I currently have.

Internal Mic not detected for G60-535DX

I accidentally disabled my internal audio sound options, and now it's not showing up at all. When I go to Start>Control Panel>Hardware and Sound>Manage Audio Devices>Recording it tells me "no audio devices are installed"
I tried installing the Audio drivers to see if that would fix it Conexant Pebble High Definition SmartAudio. It installed, I restarted, and the mic still isn't showing up. Any suggestions?

I had the same problem with my internal mic. It was not listed as an option on the sound input panel. I solved the problem by going to System Preferences; clicking on "Speech"; then, under "speech recognition", choose "internal microphone" in the microphone menu; then click the "calibrate" button. Go back into the "Sound" panel and, hopefully, the internal mic will be an option.
I have to admit that I explored the rest of the options in the speech panel, but I believe that the calibration in the speech panel did the trick. I have external speakers for output and the mic now works great.

New Mac Pro owner, headset mic not recognized, help needed.

I feel like this is a really stupid question but I'm a mac from pc convert.
I recently got a copy of Rosetta Stone and need to use headset and mic. Rosetta Stone uses voice recognition for training skills.
I am able to get sound through headset but during mic setup nothing. Under system pref/sound I have input at line in/audio line input. Output I have set at headphones/builtin output.
Mic test is negative. Can anyone help me with this??
Thanks.

I am sick and tire using Skype with the speaker on my iMac. I don't see any point spending $100 for a headset with mic.
Are you suggesting that as long I get a USB based headset it should work with the Mac? and no need to install any drivers.
Is there anything specifically that I should be looking when shopping for a headset.
The Microsoft LifeChat is only for Windows how could it work with the Mac, please clarify it for me
thanks

I have a new satallite L645D-S4056. It has the Conexant HD Audio card. I installed the driver from the toshia site but still its says mic not detected.
It supposed to have the inbuild mic and webcam. Can someone help with this.

For some reason, several are maintained on that site. Can't hurt to experiment with all three. (In spite of the identical version designations, they are all different.)

Headset with mic not working on Mac Mini

I have a 5 year old Mini and a brand new one (haven't hooked up the new one because I have to take it to the Apple store to get the data migrated, which BTW Apple now charges $99 for, they didn't before) My problem is getting the mic to work. I am almost positive the old one does not have a built in mic, does anyone know if the new one has one? I have a headset with both the earphones and the mic that I cannot get to work. There are two jacks on the back, one for input one for output. Neither headset mic is working. I even bought an adapter with two jacks and tried that, but it doesn't work. The output works both ways, it is just the mic I can't get to work. (Rosetta Stone software) Couldn't get much help from the Apple Tech support line. Anyone have any ideas?

Windows 10 not detecting my headset

Hello So I just updated my PC to Windows 10 and now I can't get my headset to work. Any headset for that matter. When I insert the headset plugs (not sure if the right words since I am not a native English speaker but I hope you know what I mean) nothing happens. Absolutely nothing. I've checked for updates, no updates. I've run the troubleshooter, doesn't detect any problems. I've restarted my PC several times. What do I do? My headset is the ony thing I can use to listen! I am quite desperate to be honest. I was looking forward to checking out my new PC with all the new dandy features and then no sound. It couldn't be more dull. Thanks in advance!

I followed your steps and now the wireless security is set to "none". The PC still doesn't see the AirPort.
Unfortunately, I don't have any other computers to connect to the AirPort network to see if they work.
I think the strangest thing about this is that I can detect some neighborhood networks with my PC but not the AirPort. You'd think that it might have to do with the closed network setting like Rider mentioned but that's not the case.
I've even tried a backdoor method of manually trying to add the AirPort's network to the PC's network list but even that hasn't worked.

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.

Wow Wireless Headset Mic stops working on Mac OSX 10.6.3

I'm running the April drivers and firmware for my wireless wow headset. After the install of the drivers all was working great. No lag from mic etc. I shutdown my computer went to bed. Next day I booted up, worked a bit and then turned on my headset. Sound worked fine but no mic input detectable from any application. Unplugged the transmitter and replugged it. Sound still works but not mic. I rebooted with the headset on and mic worked. I assumed headset needed to be on during boot up. This morning same thing but even reboot with the headset on doesn't give me microphone functionality.
I've double checked the mic is plugged in properly to the headset but i just can't get any sound out of it.

Ok, I found a work around. It seems the mic doesn't initialize sometimes when i boot up and power on the head set. I can tell the mic isn't working because if i press the mute button the red light doesn't come on indicating I'm muted. To fix this i power off the headset and power it back on. This takes several attempts. I also found it seems to do better at initializing when its not plugged into the charging cable.

SOUND BLASTER X-FI PLATINUM - MIC NOT WORKING... NEED ANSWER

I used to use a crap $50 mic and everything worked fine on my SB setup. Now that I have a real deal studio mic. It doesn't detect it at all. I've tried re-installing. I've tried all the inputs. No luck...
DOES ANYONE HAVE A SUGGESTION...

HELPPPPPPPPPPPPPPP!!!

It needs 48 VOLTS Phantom power(phantom power supplied by whatever? equipment it is plugged into..........)...........You cannot expect a soundcard to supply 48v phantom power if there is no 48volts to start with.Mixers and the like usually have "phantom power"supplies built in to power condenser mics.Soundcards also supply the power for regular headset mics and desktop pc mics via the mic socket(jack).A soundcard cannot and will not supply 48 Volts. IF I tried to connect a condenser mic(not headset or desktop)to a soundcard via a XLR connector into a stereo jack plug(adapter), where do you think the 48 Volts would come from?If a condenser mic does not have a battery inside or is not a low voltage one that takes it's power across the mic jack on a soundcard then it aint gonna work.How do you think a headset or desktop mic works?on fresh air?It takes enough power(volts)from across the power rail that supplies the soundcard. I'm an audio/electronics egineer so I should know.Message Edited by musicman53 on 09-02-20070:30 AM
