   I want to plug my external headset on my MBP, but only the audio jack works. I can't seem to use my microphone, but the built-in laptop works. I read that I might need a special type of microphone that is from Apple?

   Honestly, I didn't realise this until you said something and I went to research it. Kinda neat tho.
   
   In laymans terms, the macbook pro's line input isn't a standard mini-jack.
