So, I am little frustrated with the headphones. I have received these Beats By Dr. Dre Studio Headphones for Christmas and lo and behold, I seem to be having the same issues everybody on this post is having.
Not being able to answer phone calls, etc. etc. etc.
I recently emailed Monster concering this problem and this was the answer I received:
There are no issues using the iSonitalk (ControlTalk Universal). Please make sure you have the right angle connector (L-shape) plugged into your phone to properly support the mic and play/pause button.
I just tried to contact Apple concering the matter and I guess basically you are left out in the wind because the Apple agent wanted me to take the headphones and my phone to an Apple Store.
If you do or don't have Apple Care, which I just found out - they still won't help you as I had an adventure with my MacBook.
Apple Care is not worth 2 cents for somebody to try to give me a b.s. answer.
I am just really disappointed that this is 1. an apple sponsored product and 2. that it does not work with my iphone4.
Thank you, Monster and Apple.
