When I plug in an external microphone.

I want to use an external mic on the TouchSmart 600-1120 but am unable to know where to plug it in. Read the best user Guide is 'J' illustration on page 8 in the box to cover connector.

I see the Guide States, that plugin on the plug hole helmet on the side is should not be used for microphone. So I just need to figure out who jack to use.

Hello

As mentioned above, a few microphone MAY work. Looks like that she does not accept the microphone - as mentioned on another answer, try the USB sound card or headphones.

Kind regards.

    I use a splitter cable, and have verified meter that it is properly connected.  Also the microphone that I try to use the works when connected to a separate Recorder device, so I know who works very well.

    The audio output on a 2012 port does not support the audio input.  You will need to use the USB ports for audio input.  This will require an appropriate hardware and software.

  • When I plug my headphones in the front jack 3.5 external speakers are NOT dumb

    Hello

    I recently reinstalled Vista Ultimate on a bigger hard drive, but now I have a problem with my audio devices.
    (1) when I plug in my headphones to the port of front 3.5 mm external speakers are NOT dumb.
    (2) the only way I can switch from headphones and speakers is by right clicking the speaker icon in the notification area, click playback devices and "Set is device by default", followed by restart the video or itunes.
    Can someone help me with this.
    In addition, and I don't know if it's related, but in device under 'Other devices' management, the SM Bus controller has a yellow Triangle with an exclamation mark inside.
    Thanks in advance for any help
    Concerning

    This is controlled by the hardware itself or the driver software.

    You can try to install the latest audio drivers available from the manufacturer.
    If this does not work, you can try to contact the manufacturer for assistance.

  • External microphone not detected and faulty internal mic on Satellite Pro U400

    I have had several headphones with microphone and taken headphones 3.5 and the laptop just will not detect them. I tried to disable the internal sound system, or just the MIC internal, but not luck.

    The internal MIC is a (stronger if the external microphone is plugged) whirring background noise which means I can't use it for work.

    Any help is appreciated!

    Which is really strange.
    Are you using the original recovery image Toshiba and Toshiba driver sound?

    U400 is older model laptop and I would like to know since when you have this problem.
    I can't imagine that you got from day1.

  • Satellite A300 PSAG4E - no sound when you plug an electric guitar

    Hello everyone!

    I have a very difficult problem. I've got model Satellite A300, PSAG4E its short no, with Windows XP SP3 installed.

    The point is that I need to plug in an electric guitar to my computer and once it is plugged in, RealTek HD sees him but produces, records or not distinguished any sound.

    Everything is on, then I'm afraid that this isn't my inattention which is to blame.

    In case someone already had such a problem with guitar or a microphone plugged into the laptop, please inform me how you managed to eliminate this kind of things.

    Thank you.

    On my laptop I have Realtek HD Audio Manager also, but there is no option for registration. When the external microphone is connected Manager I see info on Realtek audio devices reloading and the microphone is recognized correctly, but in my opinion this Manager has nothing to do with the record.

    For the record, you need other software. In Vista, you have small tool called recorder of sounds. I tested it on my laptop and the sound will be recorded correctly.
    Can you please test it too?

    The fact is the external device is recognized correctly, but I think for sound recording, you need additional software.

  • Satellite A200-13R: after installing the XP cannot use external microphone

    Hello

    I have A200-13R which comes with Vista Home Basic. Like most of my works under XP, I don't feel comfortable with vista. So I installed win Xp pro as a dual operating system. and I hv installed all the drivers downloaded from the Toshiba site.

    But when I use yahoo or other messengers system isn't identify if I plugged the external microphone. It uses only the inbuild mic with the system. I forgot to install something?

    Experts please help.

    Hello

    First of all there is no specialists but simply Tosh user ;)

    > I forgot something to install

    I put t think you forgot something to install. Only the audio driver is needed to get the sound and mic work.
    I presume that it s just a matter of adjustment.

    I recommend to check the microphone settings in the-> sound and audio devices Control Panel
    In the single tabs as audio and voice please check if the microphone has been selected.

    In addition, please be sure that mute mic worked in volume-> advanced-> control of the microphone.

    This will disable the internal microphone! To activate the external microphone, you must press the button advanced under the micro controller.
    In the new window called Advanced controls for microphone, you will need to activate select MIC2 and Mic Boost.

    Best regards

  • Satellite L750 does not recognize an external microphone

    My laptop does not recognize any external audio input device plugged into the mic port.

    I have a Satellite L750 running Windows 7 with the Conexant HD Audio Smart.

    I want to record using external mixer. I am connect the output of the bureau in the 3.5 mm microphone port, but it seems that it is still just using the internal mic.

    When I go into the sound properties, under the recording tab, it is only the internal mic. There is no option for an external mic.

    I tried updating the driver for sound card, remove the card driver sound and re - install, check all the properties under sound properties, but there is no option for the external microphone.

    I tried Googling the problem but nobody seems to have a viable solution.

    Please can someone help me get the laptop to recognize an external mic.

    > I want to record using external mixer. I am connect the output of the bureau in the 3.5 mm microphone port, but it seems that it is still just using the internal microphone

    Start a test: take an external microphone, connect it to the laptop and use a Windows 7 Audio Recorder utility (can be found in all programs-> Accessories) to record an audio sample.

    Is this possible?

    I think that the microphone that appears in the control-> audio-> recording tab panel is the external microphone jack.
    You can also click right in the recording tab and must mark the options: show disconnected devices and devices to see the disabled.

  • Can I use an external microphone on T410

    I have a T410 (2516CTO) with a "jack audio combo" on the right side. It works well as a listener but doesn't work when I plug in a microphone.

    Someone said that I can choose the function of decision-making from the drop-down list in the control panel; However, I can't find anything that could help.

    Can I use an external mic? Or do I need a special split for this?

    Thank you!

    Hi autumn10 and welcome to the Lenovo user community!

    Any listener taken mm/4-contact + stereo 3.5 will work, like iPhone, Blackberry, and other mobile...
