Headphone jack no longer working since 8.2 update

so I did the update from 8.1 to 8.2 the other night, since the update the headphone jack no longer works, I have some choppy scratchy and unrecognizable sounds on occasions.. Has anyone else had this issue? Bad thing is I did the update, auto backed up and can no longer  backup to 8.1 or earlier versions... Any ideas?

  • Headphone Jack No Longer Works

    Does anyone know of headphones that may plug into the bottom outlet of the iPod, where it connects usually to stereo equipment. My iPod still works with this connection, to charge it, to listen on my computer, on my stereo but the headphone jack no longer works so I can't use it in my car or at other times.

    Ok I just talked to headroom and with this adapter you can go directly to a set of headphones or to one of their amps. Additionally the pin connector provides improved sound quality over the cheap headphone jack that comes stock on the ipod.

    It's not clear whether your printer is included in the Apple list - there is an Officejet 6100 and a couple of other types. Go to the page linked to above and use the browser search for 6100.
    I'm afraid HP are notorious for not supporting older printers - I had the same problem. Probably they hope you will buy another printer (I did, but it was a Canon). I did look on HP's site and couldn't see a driver - you could give it a try (make sure you have the exactly correct printer name):

    Alternatively ou could try Gutenprint (open source software):
    http://gimp-print.sourceforge.net/MacOSX.php
    I found it would indeed drive the printer, but the colour dithering wasn't very satisfactory and the duplex printing bolt-on wouldn't work. However as Gutenprint is free it's worth trying to see if it's any good for you.

  • Headphone Jack No Longer Working

    About 2 weeks ago, my iPhone's headphone jack completely stopped working. I started to notice it a month ago (after installing the latest iOS builds, but I dont necessarily have any reason to believe that it's a software issue) when it wouldn't play music in the headphones when I'd plug them in but after trying a few more times it would finally work again. Obviously now it doesn't work at all.
    I've read the few threads around the Internet on this issue and most people just had lint in the jack that had to be cleaned out. Mine did not but I tried cleaning it anyway with a q-tip and also light oiled it with electronic lube (with a q-tip, being mindful of the sensor at the base of the jack).
    Has anyone else been able to fix this type of problem?

    SOLUTION: Headphones no longer work on iPad
    I had the same problem: suddenly my headphones didn't workon my iPad. All the headphones (3 pairs) worked on my iPhone, so I knew the problem wasn’t with the headphones. The sound worked fine from the iPad speakers, so when I unplugged the headphones, the sound returned. I called AppleCare Support and tried everything they suggested, including restoring it to the factory settings. Nothing worked, and they authorized a replacement iPad.
    The new iPad arrived, but it had the same problem, so I knew something had changed in the iPad's programming. I went online and found that many others were having the same problem, but no one offered a solution. However, someone mentioned that the problem first occurred after installing the latestOS (4.3.3), which is when my iPad’s problem occurred. Next, someone else wanted to know if there was a mute switch that needed to be turned off. This started me thinking...
    To make a long story as short as possible, I played around with the controls on my old iPad and discovered the following: Apparently, the latest OS has added a safety feature to protect our eardrums (that’s nice, but it would be even nicer to have been notified of this change .. even the support technicians were unaware of it). Previously, when you listened to the audio through the iPad’s speakers, the sound was so low that you had to turn the volume up as high as possible to hear it. Then when you plugged in the headphones, the sound blasted your eardrums as you frantically lowered thevolume.
    (PROBLEM:)
    Now, however, WHEN YOU PLUG IN THE HEADPHONES, THE IPAD AUTOMATICALLY MUTES THE SOUND. When you unplug the headphones, the sound is automatically restored through the speakers, giving you the false impression that there is something wrong with the headphones or the headphone jack.
    (SOLUTION:)
    So after plugging in the headphones, you have to use the volume button to bring the sound back up to the desired level. When you press the volume button, it will say “headphones” on the display to let you know that you are adjusting the sound for the headphones only. The speaker volume retains its previous setting (maximum volume).
    So, the solution is quite simple… just turn up the volume after you attach the headphones.

  • Buttons (silent, volume, on/off) and headphone jack no longer working!

    All of a sudden my iPhone stopped working - that is, none of the buttons work except the round one below the screen. None around the sides work any more and the headphones jack doesn't work either. I have the latest os/firmware (3.1). This happened totally out of the blue. I know of nothing special that could have caused it. Just happened one day when I tried to use headphones and noticed the volume kept sounding through my speakers rather than the phones. And then I noticed the silent didn't work, the volume up/down button on the side didn't work, etc.
    I can not turn my phone off so I tried to let the battery die out and then recharge it which resets it. But that didn't help either. Buttons still aren't working.
    This means I can't turn on silent, adjust volume, listen using my headphones or use hands-free.
    Any ideas why?
    I purchased my phone back in Aug '08 so it's just out of warrenty, of course!

    Problem is since I bought mine online, I have to send it in to the online store to have it checked. And they couldn't even promise they could, or would do anything.
    I live in Norway and there is no Apple store. They have "certified dealers" but they won't look at my phone since I didn't buy from them.
    Bottom line is I will be without my phone for at LEAST a week for them to look at it, and then there is a good change they won't fix it for free or even at all.
    That's why I was hoping for some advice from somebody that may know about this...

  • Will apple replace my ipod touch since the headphone jack no longer works properly?

    It is still under warranty and there was no damage to it from anyone. The headphone jack is faulty and it is a hardware problem not user damage

    If they determine it to defective, then they will replace it.

  • Headphone jack no longer working after repair

    Recently I had a issue with my macbook pro so I had it repaired at the Apple Store(problem with the display).  They replaced the logicboard(2nd time in 4 months) and the battery.  Now after taking it hope and plugging in my external speakers into the headphone jack I get this weird thump sound.  It happens twice and I'll watch the audio strength at the top right.  Each time it goes from like it's working to a gray color as if it's not or locked.  If I try to play something like music with the jack in my entire screen freezes and I have to restart my computer entirely for it to work.
    I'm very confused since I just got my computer back after an entire week and I still have issues.
    Is there anyway to fix this or do I need to make another trip to the apple store?
    Btw there is no red light in the headphone jack.  The last time I had the logicboard replaced it was a sound problem.

    Hi h,
    I would, without hesitation, bring it back to the Apple Store to have a proper repair completed.

  • IPOD touch. - Headphone jack no longer working.

    I'm new to this site, and it's sincerely making me angry.
    I got an ipod touch NG december 2008. It ran fine, but it seems as soon as my warranty ran out, the headphone jack decided to mess up. Now, I only get audio out of my right headphone, and not the left. It is not to do with the headphones, as I've tried multiple pairs. So, now I read that I have to pay 99 dollars for a repair fee? Is this how it is? Or are there any loopholes around that ridiculous fee considering I paid three hundred dollars for something I expected to actually work.
    Has anyone else had this problem? How'd you fix it?
    I'm sincerely annoyed with apple, and very much considering changing MP3 forms. Because, my family have all owned a certain IPOD product, and they've all had problems.
    Someone, please reply.

    the same thing happened to me but i didnt know it would cost about 100 bucks to repair. ive tried it with 3 diffrent pairs of headphones

  • IPod Touch 4 headphone jack no longer working??

    So recently, my ipod touch 4's headphone jack stopped working. As in, I would plug in the headphones, and I would just hear the bass guitar in all the songs and the vocals, drums, beats etc. would be almost muted. And then, I would re-plug in the headphones not all the way through but it would be loosely connected to the ipod. Any slight touch to the headphone would turn the music off. But, it would play the music fine. What am I supposed to do?
    These are the same headphones I've been using for the last 5 months and this has never been a problem. Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance

    If the problem is not due to the headphones:
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • Headphone jack no longer working - How to test if it is a hardware or software issue?

    Hi, my headphone jack fairly suddenly stopped working. The speakers and the sound are fine, but when I plug my headphones in nothing plays. I see that the computer does recognize that headphones are plugged in, and it does change it to "headphones" instead of "speakers" under sound properties.
    I don't remember installing any particular updates, but I did recently swap out my 4GB RAM to an 8GB stick. Not sure if the tech shop did something that might have ruined it. Does anyone know of a way that I can test whether it's a software issue or a hardware one?
    thanks

    Hi @svltn,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums. I saw your post regarding your concern about the audio jack not working. There is a good chance that is it not a software issue because then you won't get any sound from the speakers either. You can try setting the headphones as the default audio device if you haven't already. This third-party link will show you how. It is for Windows 7 but if you are using Windows 8 just search for Control Panel from your main tile page and the rest is the same from there.
    Have you tried a different set of headphones or the current headphones in another device to see if it is the headphones themselves that are broken? I don't think it is the RAM but if you still have the 4GB RAM put that back in and see if the headphones start working again.

  • After using external speakers headphone jack no longer works

    Hi, i plugged in some external speakers yesterday, the type that have two channel inputs (red and white) from my headphone jack.  the speakers didnt seem to work, i thought it was the speakers that were broken, but now nothing will work from the headphone jack.  the computer recognises they are there but there is no sound at all apart from slight fuzziness.  it is nothing to do with the red light connection as ive had this problem before and its not that this time.  i have reset vram and done the SMC reset too, but none of this has worked.  the internal speakers work fine.  nothing is muted, nothing is unbalanced.  i have read everything single thread about similar problems and tried all the solutions i can find.  can anyone help!!??  :'.(

    Replacing a faceplate on an 83xx device is not a simple operation.  It is not meant to be disassembled by the consumer.  This is a risk you take of disassembling a working device.  You may be able to disassemble and fix but there is no way for us to know whether you can fix it or not.

  • Adjust no longer works since 8.1 update

    Since updating to 8.1, the adjust functionality no longer works. That is, when I select a photo and click edit, I get to the edit screen as usual. When I click the adjust button, the floating adjust pane appears. I can move the sliders as usual, but no change occurs. That is, the sliders move, but the photo does not change. If I click "done", the photo still does not change. So, this doesn't appear to be a problem with seeing the adjustment in real time. It appears that adjustments just can no longer be made.
    This is true in iPhoto as well as iWeb. That is, I can no longer adjust photos in iPhoto, and when I send the photos to iWeb to make a web page, I cannot use the adjust function in iWeb either.
    For reference, I am running iLife '09 version 8.1 on a 1.25GHz G4 iMac with 1GB of RAM. I have installed iLife support 9.0.3, and I am running Mac OS X v10.5.8.
    Since I don't recall the exact timing, this problem could have appeared with 10.5.8 or iPhoto 8.1.
    I have submitted a bug report, but verion 8.1 isn't an option in the "What version of iPhoto are you using?" selection on that page, so I had to submit it under 8.0.3, the newest version listed.
    Any thoughts or ideas would be much appreciated. If you're having a similar problem, please file a bug report.

    quit iPhoto, Delete the iPhoto preference file ("your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> comn.apple.iPhoto.plist) and launch iPhoto and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it
