![]() ![]() ![]() It's unsurprising given Apple's turn towards AirPods, but it also poses a problem for anyone who wants to take the Lightning version of Apple's wired earbuds that come with an iPhone and plug them into a Mac.įortunately, a dongle exists: Anker's USB-C to Lightning Audio Adapter has a female Lightning port on the one side, which you can plug your Lightning headphones into, and then a male USB-C port on the other, which you can use to plug into any Mac that has USB-C ports on it. Years later, no Mac has a female Lightning port. But when Apple introduced its shiny new 2017 MacBook Pro with three USB Type-C ports, a good old fashioned headphone jack and nothing else it led to a weird little issue: Apple’s standard iPhone headphones with their Lightning plug had no way to plug into Apple’s flagship computer, which lacks one. Between dongles and AirPods and comes-with-your-iPhone Lightning EarPods, there were a handful of different options to move forward. When Apple removed the headphone jack from the iPhone 7 back in 2016, the world managed to keep turning.
