[QUOTE="shizwhizz, post: 1129685, member: 166089"] Yeah what it says on the tin really. My mic is broken, the sound isn't showing up if I record videos in photobooth or if I talk to people on skype. I think it happened because I dropped my macbook, and the charger port was damaged, so I put it in for repair and when i got it back ....no sound. I don't think it happened during the fall because I had sound at the time. I think it happened when they were fixing it. The thing is, I was planning on buying a new webcam anyway, I skype a lot and I was wanting something that was better quality than i-sight. So if I buy a webcam with a built in mic, will this work even if my internal mic is broken? I will take it in for repairs again anyway but cannot at the moment as dont have too much money at the moment, it is not in warrenty anymore, and i need to have sound as soon as possible. thanks for the help guys.
