AirPods Microphone Not Working? Here's What to Do.

How to Fix It When a Zoom Microphone Is Not Working.Do Airpods Work With Zoom? –
Spray a cotton swab with rubbing alcohol—don't get it too wet—and dab away on the microphone holes to the bottom of the AirPods to loosen any gunk. Then, pry out any particles with a toothpick or a pair of tweezers. If you can only use the microphone on a single AirPod, it's possible this is down to your settings. Check the active microphone setting for your AirPods to determine if it's configured to use both mics.
Then, tap Microphone and enable the Automatically Switch AirPods option to let your AirPods determine the most suitable microphone to use on the fly.
Either of the other two settings will only use the microphone on your left or right AirPod. That can cause trouble if you put the wrong earbud into the charging case, or if there's too much ambient noise from the same direction as the active microphone.
Outdated firmware can also result in the AirPods microphone not working. If you see an out-of-date version number the AirPods Wikipedia page is an excellent place to check the latest version , try updating the firmware.
To do that, connect your AirPods to a charging source and leave them next to your iPhone, which must be connected to the internet. Check back again after 30 minutes, and they should've updated in the meantime.
You can also try restarting your iPhone to resolve random connectivity issues preventing it from accurately detecting the input audio from your AirPods. Unsolicited bulk mail or bulk advertising.

Was this reply helpful? Yes No. Sorry this didn't help. Hi Bianca, many thanks for your reply and sorry its taking a couple of days for me to respond to you. I've clicked on the link you sent and checked the privacy settings for the microphone. I have " allow apps to access your microphone " turned on and " allow desktop apps to access your microphone " on too which includes MS teams. Under the sound settings I have the handsfree microphone option selected but there's no option to test my microphone see below.
I've troubleshoot but it doesn't detect a problem. I have the same issue with Airpod. My airpod pro was connected as music only and therefore cannot use as mic. I have been searching for answer on this but to no avail. I couldn't get them to work and have gave up trying. I called MS and they even connected to my pc to try to get them to work. MS say it's Apple's fault for not releasing the driver but Apple say its MS fault they're not compatible.
Just wish this was mentioned on the hundred of online reviews as I wouldn't have wasted money purchasing them. Fingers crossed it gets sorted in the future. I fought through this as well. This is needed to tell windows to add Airpods as a headset as well as stereo headphones.
For anyone else who has this adaptor and is struggling use this link and thank me later, again this exe comes with the driver AS WELL AS the management software needed to recognise Airpods properly.
Its not perfect and the driver is from , but I was extremely happy to get it working hopefully this will help others. Jan 19, AM. The problem is that windows detects the airpods as a combination device. That means it detects the mic and the sound output separately. You can use the mic with no sound at the current time, but you can't use both at once. Oct 6, PM. Aug 22, PM in response to mapplesoft In response to mapplesoft. Aug 22, PM.
