[QUOTE="upyourmedia, post: 1027980, member: 93856"] [b]This solution worked[/b] Hi, I trolled a lot of forums regarding this problem, this one actually worked. I tried the dental pick approach first, it didn't work at all. I dabbed a small amount of glue (Household Goop is the product I used) on the end of a nail, but to protect the rest of the computer and ensure I didn't glue the nail into the slot as well, I used a straw, cut to fit and placed in the female end of the jack around the piece that was stuck, acting as a sleeve, I let the glue cure for 24 hours and pulled out the broken piece as easy as pie.
