Headset mirophone used for aerobics has stopped working. There was a bit of corrosion (whiteish blue color) on and around the three prongs where the headset plugs into the battery pack. I cleaned it out, however it still is not working. Is this an expensive fix? I live in florida, are there any repair centers somewhat locally?

Likely more than just the connectors were corroded; probably some internal components as well. You live in Florida and work in an aerobics facility. Nothing more humid than that combination. Toss the current unit and buy a Shure or Audio-Technica model along with the Caig Labs De-Oxit kit. Treat the connector pins with De-Oxit as soon as you buy it and 2-3 times a year after that and it will last for many years in that environment. Do not buy the Chinese Cheez Whiz mics. You earn your living doing this and it is a tool for you to communicate with, and vital to a good session. Don't try to do it for $79. Buy it from a company that specializes in audio equipt. Sweetwater.com will take back anything (within a reasonable time) that doesn't sound right, adjust the way want, doesn't feel comfortable, etc.

I have a maytag neptune dryer #MDE5500AYW and I am trying to convert from a three prong to a four prong connection. the four prong has a red, white, black and green connection. the old three prong, had a...

yes,hook up the black with the black the white with the white and the red where the blue was,now the green is just a ground wire,all you have to do is connect it anywhere to the metal frame of the machine just to ground it,look around there should be a screw somewhere near the other wire connections if not remove any screw and connect it and it will be fine.

I have got a Jabra BT620s and connected it with usb to Windows 7 64 bit pc. The drivers automaticly were installed and ready to use. But there is no sound trough the headset, only trough the speakers. When...

Does your computer have built in bluetooth? if yes,make sure you press and hold the stereo bluetooth till its steady blue,,not blinking blue. then on your pc, go the bluetooth section in control panel and search for devices. then you should see the Jabra Audio device.click on it to connect to the Jabra and use the passcode 0000. After it connects, the steady blue should now be blinking blue. Then go to control panel, sound and you should see the Jabra there.Right click on it and click on set as default device. Now play any song and see if you still have it playing in your speakers.Let me know if it works.I have the same Jabra and its really works great.Especially when im working out and dont want no wires around me

I have a Dell Dimension DIM300. Where is the input for a two-pronged headset?

I guess you are referring to a Head phone and microphone set, with the cable splitting at the other end into two jacks. Most probably one a pink (or rose) colored one and the other green colored. Not necessary though, sometimes these two can be same color with indentation on the plastic surface to identify which one is Microphone and Headphone. If this is what the information you are looking for look on the back side of the computer. You will see three sockets in one column. If the computer is relatively new chances are that the surrounding area of these three jacks are also colored pink, green and blue. Match the pink jack to the pink (head phone) socket. Like wise green (ear phone) to green. Leave the blue one. If the computer is an old one, you may need a relatively close inspection.You may see a circle with an arrow going in to represent Mic and a circle with an arrow pointing outward to represent ear phone.

I have a 3 prong cord, the outlet is 4, colors in back dont match

Hi,
Hook the green directly to the metal of the machine anywhere you can, like under a screw that holds something.
Hook the white to the white.
Then the red and black can go on the other two, it does not natter which one is on what they are interchangable. To make it easy, go black on black and red on blue.
Plug it in and
Then you are good to go!!

The blue light on my base unit is on but the headset does not app

Unplug the unit -- Then grab the ear peice, and slide off the battery, wipe off the metal prongs ...leave apart for a couple minutes, then put back together. Make sure you plug the unit back in. It will take a couple hours for the battery to charge. But this should solve your issue.
