Anyone know of a tried and true method I could try to get the thing out? Tweezers won't work since it is simply too far in there. I don't want to start shoving shit in there to pry it out, because I could obviously damage something or push it further out of reach. Can I open up my laptop and get at it from inside?

Any suggestions are appreciated.

I don't recommend this but once upon a time this happened to me. I just shoved the next headset in and applied some pressure. The tip of the first one just went in deeper, never to be seen again.

Open the case up, most of the time you can push it out from the backside with a pin.

Not that I've ever done it.

Suck it out like a snake bite.

small dot of super glue on the cord the tip goes to and then pull it out. Actually I'd use this as an excuse to the wife to buy a whole new computer rig.

does the super glue trick work? ive actually heard this same tip elsewhere during my search for a solution....and if anyone has done this, how long should i wait for it to dry?

I think this is all you need to know.

Ok, so I was really drunk the other night and thought that'd be the best time to use super glue to get the plug tip out of my computers audio out jack. As you might imagine, it did not go perfectly... In fact, I stuck the super-glued plug into the MICROPHONE jack instead of the audio jack(in which the tip was actually located). Then I let it settle in there for 30 minutes so that the glue would surely do its job...

...Sadly, it did its job far too well. Now the rest of my headphone plug(minus the tip) is super-glued to the inside of my microphone jack.

I'm not mad at all. In fact, this has made me LOL at myself all day. I just thought I'd post to say that using super glue while thoroughly intoxicated is not such a great idea.

However, if anyone does know a way to negate the effects of super glue in my microphone jack, I'd gladly accept your suggestions.

CHEERS!

HAHAHAHAHA I'm not laughing at you, rather I am imagining the scene where you doing what you did and the look on your face when you realized what you did.

Edit : Double post while there was an Internal Error while trying to submit. Oops.

should have seen my face though!

At least he didn't double post while drunk!

I think the solution is you buy a new PC.

SIR, PUT THE SUPER GLUE DOWN AND STEP SLOWLY AWAY!!!
