Question: if i connect my apple earpods will the splitter take the input from the mic and send the audio to the headphones?
Document: Problem: I have headphones with a single 3.5mm male adapter and an inline mic. My computer has separate 3.5mm female jacks for output / input.Solution: Buy this 3.5mm 4 Pin female to 2x3.5mm 3 Pin male splitter.Done! Problem solved, happier than ever.
When I purchased my headphones originally I thought that there was going to be 2 3.5mm plugs, 1 for output, 1 for input. I was mistaken. Instead the headphones arrived with a single 4 contact 3.5mm plug which essentially negated the function of the mic on the headphones since most computer sound cards cant handle the 4 contact plug and its really made for mobile devices like the smart phones and tablets. Once I got this and plugged it in the audio and mic started working as it should.
It's not bad however a microphone input on my laptop is 2 ring and not three ring as provided when using an inline mic my audio now returns through just one headphone and is not in stereo
I bought this to plug my apple headphones into my computer. The headphone part of it worked, but it wouldn't recognize the mic. I wanted to use those headphones as a headset.
If you read any of the one star reviews, you should realize and know that those people reviewing are not knowledgeable about what product they actually wanted to fulfill this product's purpose or are upset that they messed up the splitter after abusive use. Product works as advertised and has no noticeable decrease in quality of sound output or mic input.
Yes, it allows me to connect a single, 4-band headset jack to the twin 3-band headphone and mic sockets on my laptop. The sound out to the headset is fine, but the sound in from the microphone is surprisingly faint. However, I can't be sure this is a weakness with the splitter and not my computer.
But for all other (non-iPhone headset) mics, you now need an adapter. A mini that has 4 rings instead of three and splits to a stereo headset (out) and mic (input). This one does that, and it works great. However, it is impossible without a bright light to tell which is the mic and which is the headphones.
I use this to connect a headset (audio and microphone) to my PC for use with Skype. I also use it with the funkyNative Union Moshi Moshi Retro POP Handset for iPhone, iPad, iPod, and Android Phones - Soft Touch - Black. It works fine, the plugs fit well. The tiny icons on each cable tip for the mic and phones are hard to see, so I always fumble a bit to find which is which.
Used it to connect my BOSE noise cancelled headphones with mic to computer. Works like a charm. Would order again.
I was able to successfully connect my PSVITA headphones with a mic attached into this adapted which connected to my PC's MIC and SPEAKER output.
Answer: No, I tried this and it did not work for me.
