I’ve used JPT to dial a number but when speaking into the Mac’s microphone, the other person can’t hear me. Why not?
JPT is meant to be used as a dialer in conjunction with an external telephone. As mentioned above, most modems (especially the ones that ship with Apple computers) do not support voice communications and, as such, JPT cannot overcome this limitation. If you wish to use your Mac as a telephone, you should look into the various softphone clients such as softphones from CounterPath Solutions, Inc. (eyeBeam, ineen, X-PRO, or X-Lite) that allow you to use your Mac’s microphone & speakers to place phone calls over the Internet (this requires the use of third-party VoIP companies which may charge for their services). JPT can be configured to dial using any of the CounterPath softphones.
