Quit iListen if it's running and open the Sound panel in System Preferences. Chose the input tab, select your microphone, and see if the volume meter responds. If it does than it's an iListen problem, otherwise it's a microphone problem (either OS or hardware). Also, check that the connections aren't reversed between the microphone and the USB pod. I once ran into a problem where any microphone would go dead if I moved a window on the third screen (The one driven by the second video card). To reactivate the microphone I needed to unplug the USB pod, plug it in again, then turn the microphone off and on in software. This problem seems to have been fixed in the latest version of the Mac OS. For more help you can send a message to (if it is still active): macspeech-support@lists.macspeech.com You will need to join the list at: http://lists.macspeech.com/mailman/listinfo/macspeech-support Even if MacSpeech is all busy, there are other users there (like me) that might be able to help.

This is the first email we have received from you, and we are getting many emails each day - so I can't explain why your other email(s) did not reach us. We did have a temporary problem over a month ago with email, but have had no reports of anyone having problems since then. For the benefit of everyone else on the list, MacSpeech is a geographically diverse company with employees all over the United States. Because of this, there is only one person in a physical location to take sales calls (and only one to take support calls). This means the voice mail can and does pile up, especially during the weekends. This is also our busy season, so it can sometimes take 5 days or more before you will get a response to a voice mail. You will always receive a much faster response from us via email (assuming we get it, of course). On Oct 30, 2006, at 6:50 PM, Richard D.
