Despite no longer being present on iPhones and most iPads sold by Apple, the headphone output (3.5mm connector) is still on Apple computers, whether desktop or notebook Macs.
Because it is one of the several components that equip Apple computers, it is subject to problems during use. With that in mind, below are some tips that can help resolve this situation.
Let’s go?! ????
- Check, first of all, that the problem is not with the headset itself. To do this test, try using it with another device you have nearby.
- As it is a connector that is exposed, dirt and other residues can end up getting in there during use. Gently clean the outlet using a flexible swab or lint-free cloth if dirt is on the surface.
- Make sure the “Output” option in the Sounds area on your Mac is selected for your headphones. To do this, open System Settings, click on “Sound” and, in the “Output and Input” area, click on “Output”. Make sure the headphones are connected as external headphones.
- On Macs equipped with Intel processors, try reset the SMC.
- Restart the audio controller. To do this, open the Activity Monitor, click on the “CPU” tab (at the top) and search for
CoreAudiod
in the search bar. Select the process that will appear on the screen and go to the “x” in the top bar.
- Always keep your Mac software updated to the latest available version of macOS.
- Restore your Mac to factory settings.
Has your problem been resolved? ????????
