TOPIC

    I have a Power Macintosh G3 (Blue and White) computer, and when I try to plug a headphone into the jack on the front of the CD drive, it does not fit.

DISCUSSION

    The port and volume adjustment control on the front of the CD or DVD drive are not intended for use on these computers. Instead, there is a line-out connection on the back of the computer for external speakers or headphones.

    Volume control is adjusted in the control strip module or in the Sound control panel. These should be used to adjust system sounds, rather than the volume adjustment control on the front of the CD or DVD drive.

    Disregarding this advice and attempting to use the volume adjustment control on the front of the CD or DVD drive may cause damage to the drive bezel.
