Would both my headset with a microphone work if I connected it, with the adapter, to my imac?
I use bootcamp on my imac for gaming purposes and I have a headset. When I connect it to my mac however, only the headphones show up and not the microphone. I've had this problem for many years and I have been searching for a way to fix this. So, if I connected it to my mac with the adapter, would both the microphone and headphones show up?

Hi, I would say it is possible as the dongle does provide both speaker and microphone on ios, but since I had problems on macOS Catalina last time I tested it might also be a problem with Windows. I do not use bootcamp for running Windows so I can't easily test that. Secondly it also depend on the plug on your headset. Its a cheap dongle so I would just have purchased one and tried, or brought the headset to an Apple retailer and tested it. My experience (in Norway/Europe) is that they are usually very eager to help.
