Internal mic stopped working on my 27/2010
Probably asked a lot ...But none very technical.
Need far more reasoning before I open my machine.
For some reason, the internal microphone has stopped working on Snow Leopard. I iChat mainly, and has been flawless up till now.
Reset PRAM, SMC blah blah.
The line input works ok (mic in) in syspref using headphones as a mic (heads are a basic mic, so no need for you to have a microphone).
This maybe specific to hardware, possibly the actual mic socket? A loose cable or line connector, rare, I think. Has anyone come across this?
