[QUOTE="ajeff63, post: 874390, member: 110508"] Thanks for your suggestions. I had in fact already checked the system prefs>sound and there is no sound source connected to it at all, not even headphones. When you adjust the volume control, a little 'crossed-out' symbol appears, similar to a 'no-smoking' sign, which suggests to me that the computer has no sound capabilities, but I could be wrong. I've tried searching for other solutions to remove the jack, but to no avail. I already tried to remove it by applying some super glue to a little cotton-wool stick with the cotton removed, and I managed to move it out a little, but not enough. Something tells me though, that the problem will not be solved by simply removing the lodged headphone piece. If anyone has any other suggestions, or can recommend another solution, I'd love to hear it. [/QUOTE]
