    Internal Speakers not listed as Output Device?

    How are you guys doing? I have 2017 5k iMac and I switch between headphones and the internal speakers a lot but I always did this plugging in or unplugging the headphones. Then I remembered you can simply switch the output device in the System Preferences for Sound. Unfortunately when I have...

    Beats by Dre replacement cable alternatives?

    I'm just wondering if you can use any audio cable to replace the one I had, even if it wasn't manufactured by the same company - just as long as the dimensions are the same (I hope I'm right in assuming both ends are 3.5 mm) and they work as well quality-wise.

    Still no headphone jack?

    OK Ok! I know what you thinking just by reading this tittle. Apple removed 3.5mm headphone jack from the iPhone last year, they believe wireless is the future and also perhaps to make more space for cramped components inside iPhone. Of course they are not in a rush to remove it from iPad or...

    iPhone SE (2016) Will Apple get rid of the headphone jack on the next iPhone SE?

    I am planning to replace my iPhone 5 with an iPhone SE and I'm considering waiting for the next update coming reportedly in early 2018. I have no use of a larger screen but I do need a headphone jack to plug my pair of headphones. If the new model wouldn't have it then I'd just take the current...

    Headphone jack audio distortion issue

    Hello fellow MacRumors forum users I've been having a rare but disturbing problem on my SE ever since upgrading to iOS 10.2 (can't really say cause I went straight to 10 after getting the device). Basically at some random point in time, the headphone jack would stop working, and after...

    Sound Balance defaults incorrect

    Hi guys, This is a recent problem which I cannot for the life of me work out. Essentially the sound balance on my macbook pro automatically defaults back to being slightly towards the right. This happens every time the computer goes to sleep or is restarted. I can change it back but it never...

    The next MacBook Pro redesign (merged)

    I'm interested in buying a 13" rMBP next week, but I'm worried about purchasing it at the end of its design cycle. I recall Tim Cook saying that major hardware redesigns would be introduced in 2013-14 (I think), but it wasn't clear if this applied to Apple's notebook line. Can anyone comment on...

    iPhone 7 - Solo HD 3.5mm to Lighting Cable

    Here's a good question. Does/Will Apple sell a 3.5mm to lighting cable for existing Beats headphones? Since the cable can be removed from my beats I'd like to skip the need for the dongle.

    iPhone 6S>iPhone7

    I'm going to go buy a 6S next week because... earphones. Who is with me? I'm not even slightly kidding. I like the headphones I own. I am not screwing around with a fiddly adapter to use my headphones. As a plus I can get a maxed out 6s now for a fair bit less than a 7 with a contract renewal...

    Some wireless headphone advice for those considering an iPhone 7

    Hi all I've decided to create this post to hopefully impart some wisdom/experience onto you guys. A while back I broke the headphone jack on my iPhone 6 and was forced to go wireless as I didn't have a headphone jack BEFORE Apple made it cool. Since then I have upgraded to a 6S+ and although...

    Ubuntu Touch - Bookmarks?

    I’m thinking about switching from my iPhone 6 to an Ubuntu phone in a couple years if the iPhone 8 doesn’t have a headphone jack. I’d really like to have all of my bookmarks automatically synced between Safari on my Mac and either Chromium or some other browser on my Ubuntu phone. Is this...

    I damaged my MacBook's headphone jack!

    Hey guys, Yesterday I was trying to fix my Logitech's speaker system while it was connected to my MBPr 15". I know, I'm an idiot. I was playing with the system's cables to find out which was the stereo audio ones and suddenly the right audio channel of the Macbook's headphone jack stopped...
