[Unusual Case] Microphone works but Built-in Speak...

I've just returned from a 2-week trip.  After I got home I  tried skyping my girlfirend and she had no problem hearing me. HOWEVER, I could not hear a word from her or any other person. My built-in speaker works on every other program but Skype. I've tried going into Tools->Options->Audio Settings and set both my microphone and speakers into Yeti Stereo Microphone but only Microphone works. In addition to that , I have called Echo/Sound Test Service and I could hear the bot fine except for real humans. A promptly response will be greatly appreciated!!! Thanks!!

I had a similar problem with my external microphone, and for me it turned out that while I could see the device was operating properly I hadn't actually selected it to be active.
In manage recording devices you need to make sure the microphone has the green tick to say it is selected or it will go through all the diagnostics as working properly but you won't get any sound from it.

  • Logitech USB headphones - microphone works but not sound output

    Seems like the sound output to my Logitech USB headphone has stopped. The microphone inputs but the sound output is blocked. Could be technical issue with the set but was wondering of anyone else has this problem after the last update to 10.14.0

    ChickInVici,
    Having similar issue with iPad 2.  No volume on Apps or Music (except when using headphones).  Just started happening after months of no issues.  Have reset/ restored with no solution.  Can you provide more detail with your solution?  I went to >settings>accessibility>voiceover.....but could not find headphones etc... what am I missing.  Could you be more specific on what you changed to resolve your issue.
    thanks

  • Microphone works but dictation does not work

         My dictation software was working fine then suddnely not so much. I have ensured it has been enabled, I have selected automatic detection as the default, I have choesen the internal microphone as the default, I have chosen the external microphone as the default, I have even deleted the
    file://localhost/Users/williams/Library/Preferences/com.apple.assistant.plist file and rebooted, tested my internal and external microphones through the system preferences dictation setup (both register as working while in dictation preferences as indicated by the microphone symbol responding to sound), I've ensured the language was set to english (US) and closed all other programs.
         Once the dication command is selected the microphone pops up and viola no response as if the microphone is no longer working!!! I am sooo much more productive with the speech to text function and really need it back. Anyone with any new/additional suggestions will be most welcome and I appreciate the help!

  • Microphone working but faulty probably after Win 8.1 upgrade

    Hi, internal microphone used to work OK but now its functioning but not picking up my voice, it gives the impression its "listening" to something else, a skype test just returns "background" noises, I dont think its a garbled version of my speech as the sound bars do not fluctuate in line with me shouting abuse at it. Any ideas?
    (tried borrowing external mic, worked fine)
    (Win 8.1)

    Bill, thanks for that info. I don't think I would ever expect to get any support from Adobe on these programs, since I stopped buying revisions after CS4. I was surprised that I was even able to successfully install the CS4 Web suite onto Win 8.0, and Win 8.1 probably adds another couple hundred million lines of redundant code from our friends in Bill Gates-Land.
    However, my A-Pro9 problem did resolve unexpectedly!  I tried opening all the suite's programs, one at a time, and then Acrobat, with no luck. Then I realized that the suite had installed both 64-bit and 32-bit versions of Photoshop (I use the 64-bit version) onto my new 64-bit computer.  So, when I opened the *32-bit Photoshop* for a minute, closed it, and re-opened Acrobat 9, it went back to working normally.  I'll take it!

  • Stuck in dock connecter mode but can also be switched to AirPlay and head phone jack works but not internal speaker?

    My Iphone 4S is all the time in dock connector mode. This give me no sound at all then ringtones. If I sett Music to use AirPlay, I get internal speaker to work. Then I have sound when I get SMS and other "biips". Else My 4S is quiet.  I can lisen to music in my headphones and it "biips" there.

    Hello Besibert
    This is a hardware issue.
    To resolve this issue you need to try some unorthodox methods to get some results. Try to insert the headset back into the port and "wiggle" it while pulling it out and then inserting it back in. Try this a couple of times and see if this helps.
    The reason for this is because there's a "lever" or spring mechanism that got stuck. No hard reset or soft reset will fix this (I speak from experience).

  • 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.

  • My speaker is broken.... But my microphone works except my speaker but you can hear music out of it but you have to put it really close to your ear.... How do I fix it????

    My speaker is broken.... But my microphone works except my speaker but you can hear music out of it but you have to put it really close to your ear.... How do I fix it????

    You don't - you check your warranty status and have apple replace it for you. make sure you restore the phone as new first (after making a backup, of course) to see if the speaker works then. this isolates the issue to either your hardware or your software. if it's still happening after a restore as new through itunes, it means it's hardware that's the problem and apple will fix it for you

  • Why don't my speaker and microphone work?

    So a week or so ago, my iPhone's built-in speaker stopped working properly. I was playing music and it suddnely cut off. I listened very closely and I realized that it wasn't not working, it was just super low. I blew into the dock port and all of a sudden it got louder while I was doing that. I then took a hairdryer and blew cool air into it for a little and it started working again.
    It worked for about 2 days, then stopped working completely. I tested to see if it worked with headphones in and yes it did. I made a video and realized my microphone was not working either. People cannot hear me if I talk to them on the phone, speakerphone on or not.
    What I want to ask is what parts do you think have gone bad? Arn't the micrphone and speaker separate parts? What would have made both of them to not work? Could it be some kind of connection cable?
    My warrenty is gone, so I can't bring it in to Apple without paying a bunch.
    -Thanks

    TheKerimB,
    Make sure your you have the ringer/vibrate knob on the left side of your device by the volume buttons in the upright position instead of in the down position. That would be another option besides the aperture issue as Tonefox has mentioned. If that does not resolve the issue then you can also try and perform a restore throug ITunes and that may also resolve the issue.
    If you perform a restore through ITunes, be sure and backup your device before you do a restore so you don't lose any oyour personal information like Contacts, pictures and so forth. You can also create a backup on ICloud through your device as well but you need to be on WIFI to create a backup through ICloud. Just go into Settings in your device and make sure you login with your Apple ID  and you should be ready to create a backup through ICloud. Be sure and turn the toggles on that you want to backup onto ICloud and turn off what you do not want to backup. Just make sure you are connected to WIFI because that is the only way to create a backup on ICloud.
    Hope this helps and Good Luck to you and your device!!

  • Ipad2 Inbuilt speaker not working, but headphone is working

    I am using iPad2 32 GB, 3G + Wifi. updated with iOS 5.
    It's in-built speaker is not working, but when I use headphone, sound it working on it.
    Please help.
    I checked mute button and checked doubling clicking the home button and going all way to the left.
    Still not working..
    pLease help !!
    Thanking you in advance

    You've double checked that you haven't got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.  Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    If that isn't the case then have you tried a reset by pressing and holding both the sleep and home buttons for 10 to  p15 seconds until the Appe logo appears (it won't remove any content). Also when you use the volume switch does it show a heanhone symbol on the screen i.e. does it think than headphones are connected even when they aren't ?
