Q: ipad 2 microphone no longer work on ios 9.1

how to fix the microphone on ipad 2 after installing ios 9.1?

 

everything was working fine. Now the video recording microphone wont work.

 

by the way, the screen lags too--like a Samsung tablet. Is Apple shooting itself in the foot since Job's passed away?

    Hey leokwest,

     

    If I understand correctly, the Mic on the iPad is not working. I would recommend you read this article, it may be able to help troubleshoot the issue. 

     

    Get help with the microphones on your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support

    To test the microphone on your iPad, record a video using the Camera app, then play back the recording. You can also use FaceTime to make a video or audio call to test the sound quality.

    If you still have issues after testing the microphone on your device, try these steps:

    1. Unplug any accessory plugged into the headset jack.
    2. Avoid blocking the microphone and iSight mic with your fingers while holding the device or recording video.
    3. Remove screen protectors, films, or cases that cover the microphone, iSight mic, or iPhone receiver.
    4. Clear any debris from the microphones or iPhone receiver. Refer to the user guide for your device on microphone locations.
    5. Restart your device.
    6. Make sure you have the latest version of iOS.

    If you've tried these steps and people still can't hear you on phone or FaceTime calls, or Siri doesn’t hear your requests, contact Apple Support.

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    Have a good one.
