Why do you need our help then? You clearly have it covered
Try brodie's suggestion, it may appear under a different name 
I need help because it's not coming up on the list??Why do you need our help then? You clearly have it covered
I was just speaking from personal experience from having both a Rode Vidmic and MacBook Pro. We provided you with an alternative, but you seem to know what you are doing
Oh right it's the only thing in the list is the Mac mic I'm so confusedIt wouldn't pop up saying it's the 'rode videomic' or anything, it'll just be the name of the audio card/driver that it's connected to and that'll be what one it is. I'd suggest just to try every one you see in the list until you find it
As I said before, it never worked for me. I just thought it wasn't compatible with a mic headphone jack.
Yeah I'm having a nightmare with itAs I said before, it never worked for me.
If you are having technical difficulties, try calling the apple support helpline cause I can't provide anything further than a failure from previous experience in this exact same situation and providing you an alternative.
Either way, I hope it works for you
If you have any gamer friends I'm sure they have a guitar hero or rockband mic. They are cheap and work very well. Its the bets alternative I can suggest
Other than that, try recording with your phone or Ipod. They have a much better mic than the mac one
