Hello,
I live in Taiwan. Ihave an ibook G4 with OSX panther. I want to use Skype. I have a skype account. I tried their echotest to see if my microphone and headset work. They do not. If I use the built-in mike and built-in speakers that is o.k. When I loaded the CD for the following item, I got the output and input lines for the product. I chose those. At first I could listen to music (windows media) on the headphones, but after trying a skype test and setting skype to the same output/input setting, the headset sound and the mke sound became lots of white crackly noise with voices heard faintly, but inaudibly. The same it now true for music listening, though the volume is louder than before. I don't see anything on my mac to make the adjustments. And my technically proficient friends do not quite see what's wrong. The CD that comes with the following product automatically opens classic OS9 which i guess came bundled with my computer when I bought it. There are no instructions on the box.
Some folks think there are sound settings somewhere ont he Mac that I need to change.
Please advise.
