I have connected two different Logitech h110 headsets to Mac mini. One of these is brand new out of the package.
Neither one registers any input levels from the headset's mic, as shown on the Sound Preference screen.
Other apps also don't receive any audio input either.
What is needed to use a Logitech h110 headset with Mac Mini?
Mac mini, OS X Yosemite (10.10.3)
It will also depend on the model of your MacMini, info you didn't provide, only more recent models can use this kind of adapter.
You bought headsets designed for PC s not Macs.
Spec's:
Mac Mini (Late 2012)
Processor 2.3 GHz Intel Core i7
Thanks for your reply.

I viewed the adapter at the link you provided.
It appears to reduce separate Mic and Headphone connections to a single connector.
The spec's for my Mac Mini (Late 2012) list the following:
- Audio line in minijack (digital/analog)
- Audio line out/headphone minijack (digital/analog)
Wouldn't this indicate that the separate Mic and Headphone connectors are to be used with this Mac mini?
Thanks for your time.
No. Line-in requires an amplified signal. Your headset does not provide that.
The headphone jack included a contact for a mono mic. See:

You need a cable like Lanny provided in his reply.
Essentially, the adapter will allow your PC based headphone/mike combo to be used as a substitute for the Apple supplied earbuds.
