Apple’s Worldwide Developers Conference to kick off June 10 at 10 a.m. PDT with Keynote address

The Keynote will be available to stream on apple.com, the Apple Developer app, the Apple TV app, and the Apple YouTube channel. On-demand playback will be available after the conclusion of the stream.

Looks like no one’s replied in a while. To start the conversation again, simply ask a new question.

MacBook Pro internal microphone not working for zoom

Internal microphone does not work for Siri/zoom, but works on FaceTime interestingly. It is three years old. Interestingly took it to Apple, they suggested a new microphone fo $600. Reset everything including SMC etc. Finally I stuck an actual 3.5mm headphone in the jack. Not really sure it was related to that. Started working again. Now two weeks later it is out again. I really think it is a hardware thing...anyone else have any ideas?

thanks

Nick

Hi Nick,

Sometimes it is something simple ...

Eg : Wondering if you have checked the privacy settings ...


  1. Click the Apple icon on the left of the top menu bar.
  2. Choose "System Preferences"
  3. Click "Security and Privacy" icon
  4. Scroll to click Microphone in the left column.
  5. Click to tick checkbox to allow Zoom to use the microphone.


Hope this helps.
