The new Mini however now refuses to see the external speakers and System Prefs only offers me the internal ones. Please tell me I haven't destroyed something! 2017-08-01T21:52:15+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1468#6955 Eric Jervis info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Solved, but I can't work out why. Multiple restarts did nothing then I pulled the jack out of one socket and stuck it in the other and bingo. I'd done this before to no avail. 2017-08-01T22:50:42+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1468#6956 Mick Burrell info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Does the new mini have two sockets - a microphone and a headphone? 2017-08-02T09:47:07+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1468#6957 Eric Jervis info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Certainly does Mick! 2017-08-02T10:22:02+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1468#6958 Mick Burrell info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Surely you must have plugged the speakers into the microphone socket? 2017-08-02T10:22:11+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1468#6959 Derek Wright info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ In some of the Macs the 3mm sockets have a switch sensor in them, occasionally the switch gets jammed into the off position and needs to be reminded of it's correct role in life by being exercised a little bit by a few insertions and removals. 2017-08-02T19:07:27+01:00 https://www.augwessex.org.uk/discussions/view/1468#6961 Eric Jervis info@augwessex.org.uk https://www.augwessex.org.uk/ Ooooo, you are a one, Mick! Aargh NO! Just looked it up and you're right, but how is a simple man to know what all those funny little icons mean? And thanks, Derek, I very much suspect that you too are right, because its been in that socket before and refused to work.
