EDIT: Problem fixed by buying a new cord from amazon. Mini USB 2.0.

Hi everyone!
The Blue Yeti I use for work appears broken. While I was travelling between work + home, the cord snapped off inside the mic.
Picture of when I first discovered this, the piece that came out of the yeti + the cord: View: https://imgur.com/gallery/9ssCFUS

I tried using a new mini USB but the device is not recognized by the computer anymore. Is there anything I can do to fix this?

Since you tried another cord, next step would be to open the mic and examine the jack for issues, may need to be soldered in place again or replaced. Looks like a pretty standard USB connector that should be easy to find.
I bought a new cord from amazon in case the first one I used only had charging capabilities, not audio. The new cord worked!
