Hello christinefromtaylor,


Thanks for reaching out to the Apple Support Communities!


If you're having trouble with your microphone not working as expected, you'll want to first check to make sure that whatever app you're using has access to your microphone. This article can walk you through doing that: Control access to the microphone on Mac - Apple Support


If the app does have access but you're still unable to use it as expected, check the input settings as shown in here and ensure that you have the microphone selected and it isn't muted: Change the sound input settings on Mac - Apple Support


If none of those steps do the trick, you'll want to reach out to Apple Support to look in to some additional options for this. You can reach out to them here: Apple Support


Take care!
