My speaker no longer works on my iPhone 6

My speaker no longer works on my iPhone 6

Maryvgal,
Speakerphone is a very nice feature and we want you to be able to enjoy it. How long has this issue been happening for? Also, if you try to play music are you able to hear it without headphones or other accessories? Any physical or liquid damage to the phone?

HT5858 My speaker no longer works on my Iphone 3. I have gone into settings and checked the volume, but everything is OK

I have an Iphone 3 and all of a sudden the speaker no longer works on the phone. I have gone into settings and played around with the volumethere, but that made no difference. Is there something else I should be doing?

After installing OSX Lion, the built-in camera no longer works. Solution?

After installing OS X Lion on a late 2010 MacBookPro, the built-in camera no longer works. Worked beautifully with Snow Leopard. Reset SMU to no avail. Any solutions?

Hi, Thanks for the reply, I really appreciate your help with this.
Yes to both questions: iMovie is in the Applications folder, not in any subfolders. And I have reinstalled iMove from the original disc (before and after the OS reinstall) but can only get up to 7.1.4 without buying a later edition of iLife.
The camera definitely worked under Snow Leopard but not since I upgraded from SL to Mountain Lion.
Found the following on this forum:
If you have iLife '09 or older, there have been no iPhoto 8, iMovie 8 or
Garageband 5 (or older) updates relating to Lion or Mountain Lion. The
support and compatibility situations for those versions is unknown as
Apple hasn't said anything. We can only determine compatibility
anecdotally. If it turns out that there is a problem and Apple doesn't
release an update, your only recourse is to buy the latest version of
the application.
I reinstalled some other iLife apps as well. iDVD went missing after the ML reinstall. When I reinstalled it from the original disc, it wouldn't open and I had to download a manual update to get it working. iWeb previously stopped working after the upgrade to ML (all the menu options were greyed out) but when I reistalled it (together with iMove and iDVD) yesterday, it started working again.
All this seems to point to a compatibilty issue between iLife '08 and ML.

IHome no longer works with iPhone 4s after iOS 6.1 update.

My iHome no longer works with iPhone 4s after iOS 6.1 update. Prompts message 'This accessory is not supported by iPhone'. Has anyone come accross this and is there a fix?

Ring up iHome and ask them for a fix... And if they cant supply you with a fix... Then you should be entitled to a replacement or a upgrade, as firmware upgrades on your ios device should not affect audio products......

Wifi no longer working on Iphone 6

wifi no longer working on Iphone 6

First, try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not help, set it up as new device, explained here:
How to erase your iOS device and then set it up as a new device or restore it from backups
If still no luck, get it checked by visiting an Authorized Apple Service Provider or contact Apple Support to get it serviced:

Help! Speaker no longer works!

My speaker is now longer working! I can only hear someone on the phone is it is on "speaker phone." I've tried doing a soft reset. Any suggestions?

igrok-mac in a previous thread found a solution that seems to have helped many with similar problems. The thread is here:
http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1033243&tstart=50
Before you take it in, just try playing something in the ipod app while headphones are plugged in and then pull the headphone cord out. Just a hunch, because I let the phone go to sleep last night with headphones plugged in, pulled them out before awaking the phone and couldn't hear anything. Then a plug in and pull out and all was working fine. First and only time this has happened to me. <<</div>

Built in iSight no longer works in 10.4.10

After I installed the 10.4.10 update and rebooted my iSight no longer works. If I open Photo Booth to test it out it starts out normal then very quickly starts to fade down to complete black, yet still remains on as indicated by the green light.
Taking pictures just results in a black square. I tried removing the Photo Booth prefs but that did nothing. Reinstalling the 10.4.10 combo update also did nothing.
Any ideas?

Welcome to Apple Discussions, Chadsere
Because you made your post "in response to" me, I will respond, although, from your wording, you may have intended your post for the original poster.
adam1185's question has been marked "Answered", which indicates that he does not expect further input. Therefore, you may not see a response from him. However, I agree with your interpretation that "it just magically started working again" for him.
By whatever method, you will want to get your problems resolved while you still have warranty coverage for your MacBook.
Notwithstanding what is reported, unless something changes, computers will not heal themselves. Because Mac OS X performs certain checks on your hard drive files at every startup, my guess is that most successes credited to "magic" are likely due to restarts. However, any fix that gets things working for you is a good fix.
If you have not already done so, apply the 10.4.10 Combo Updater using the method described above. That often helps correct iSight problems.
If your problem persists, unless your problem is exactly the same as adam1185's, I suggest you start a new topic with as much detail as possible about your system and problem. Your issues deserve the individual attention that they will get in threads of your own.
Cheers,
Jim

N70 Phone's Handset speaker no longer works

Can anyone tell me why I suddenly no longer hear calls on my N70 unless I have a headset plug or go to loudspeaker. Its like all of a sudden my handset no longer works.

Sounds like you've got a faulty earpiece...
Backup your phone, and reset it to factory settings... not that I think that will work, but it's worth a try...
If not, take it to a Nokia Service Centre and they should be able to sort it for you.

JBL Radial dock no longer works on iPhone 4 after iOS 5 upgrade.

JBL Radial dock no longer charges my iPhone 4 after iOS 5 upgrade however I still Can play music.
Any help on that ?

OK a bit of success over the weekend. Not sure if it will help you guys. So i have an IPHONE 3gs and it would not play any music through the JBL but it would ring (through the JBL speaker) and charge while connected.
I sync'ed through itunes and made sure i had the latest version of both itunes and the IOS on the phone. Then pushed some podcasts and albums down from my computer to the iphone through the computer.
This must have sone something as now everythign works fine. all radio and music apps now play through the JBL.
Hope this helps.

Bose headset no longer works on iPhone 4

My Bose headset, which worked flawlessly on 3GS, no longer works for voice control and voice memos on my new iphone 4. They still work fine as headphones but the microphone no longer is operational. The Apple supplied headset works and if I unplug the Bose set the voice dialing and memos work okay.
But when I use the Bose headset and try to record a voice memo it includes a rhythmic static every half second or so. Voice control is completely non-operational with this headset. I'm thinking something with the noise canceling is screwed up.
Anyone have any possible work arounds?

Ya, this is a bit of a Joke.
I have an $80 pair of skullcandy headphones with Mic that I just recently purchased for my iPhone 3G. When I jumped to the iPhone4 it doesnt work. The apple headset works every time. When I plug in the skull candy, I can hear the person I'm calling but they cant hear me and to add to that, there is this staticy pulsing sound on the line from the headset. If I press and hold the Talk/Music button on my SC headset, the person I'm calling can hear me but they say I sound like I'm in the background. I thought as you did that the mic on the phone was then in use, but when i disconnected the headset, the person I called said it changed and I sounded "Really" far away at that point.
Apple: So how do I fix this? I refuse to carry around two headsets and the apple headset is less than desireable for quality music listening.

Facebook no longer works with iPhone 4s

For the last two days my Facebook app on my iPhone 4s no longer works. I click on it and it tries to open but it just goes back to the screen. Any idea on how to fix this?

Do you have the current FaceBook app version installed?
Any change after a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?
If not, any change after deleting and reinstalling the app?
