No sound when playing music and video on the new iphone 3gs (32gb)

I have a problem with no sound when playing music or watching video both on the ipod part of the phone and when watching youtube videos, all other sounds are working fine on the phone(eg Apps, phone calls/rings and system sounds. If i reset the phone everything apears to work fine again for the first minute or so but when i stop a video or tune for a second and try going back to it, the sound is gone again. All settings are fine. Anyone having the same problem or any idea how to fix it?
Thanks

You could try either a Backup Restore or a Clean Restore. I usually do a CR with MobileMe as the restore source. Afterwards I reload the music, videos and apps.
It could be a sound playing bug like the Bluetooth bug that bites me now and then (audio stops and goes once in a while, audio gaps in the video if the video is paused, and videos recorded have the audio very quiet).

  • My iPhone 4 has no sound when playing music or videos-help please?!

    Hi - my phone has stopped having any sound when playing music or videos, no volume bar either. No key noises either - but I can live without those!! I can hear sound through headphones, though sometimes that's intermittent. I have tried cleaning ports, restarting it, restoring it, pressing right hand corner of screen, taking headphones in and out repeatedly, pressing speaker twice whilst making call, blowing air into charging port, flicking volume switch on and off on side etc yet nothing has worked. Please can anyone else help? Apple want £135 plus vat to service it which isn't worth it in my opinion!

    Is the mute switch on?
    Is Do Not Disturb mode enabled?

  • Crackling and popping sound when playing music and watching youtube videos

    there is a crackling and popping sound when i watch videos on youtube or play music/videos  using vlc media player  and windows media player. recently it has gotten to a point where it happens when windows is starting up or even when the laptop is required to play a sound for example when i plug in a removeable hardware such as thumbdrives

    Hi @donnabail ,
    Thank you for visiting the HP Support Forums and Welcome. I have read about your HP 2000 Notebook and getting a buzzing or popping sound while playing music and watching Youtube videos. Try performing a hard reset.
    When performing a hard reset please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices.
    You can do a system restore. System restore will help if something automatically updated and did not go well on the Notebook that might have caused this.
    You can try this
    1. Right click the Speaker icon in the bottom right corner.
    2. Click Playback Devices.
    3. Click Speakers.
    4. Click properties.
    5. Click the advanced tab on the Properties window.
    6. Change the Default Format drop-down to the highest quality.
    7. Apply the properties.
    8. Click OK to close the properties window.
    What happens if you right click on the video while playing a video and take the check out of hardware acceleration. Shut the browser down and restart the notebook.
    Have you checked for an update on the Active X.
    Please let me know how this goes.
    Thanks.

    Hi @21coldones ,

    Please make sure your updates have been done on the Notebook. In the device manager under sound right click and update the driver. Here is another step to try.

    2. Click Playback Devices.
    3. Click Speakers/Headphones.
    4. Click Properties.
    5. Click the Advanced tab on the Properties window.
    6. Change the Default Format drop-down to the highest quality.
    7. Apply the properties.
    8. Click OK to close the properties window.
    9. Click OK to close the Playback Devices.
    Here is a link to the HP Support Assistant if you need it. Just download and run the application and it will help with the software and drivers on your system at the time of purchase.
    Hope this helps with the sound.

  • No audio when playing music and videos

    need help on my iphone 4s...no audio when playing music or watching videos...no volume display and volume buttons dont function...

    Clean the dock connector and headphone jack.  Lint or debris in either of this could cause this issue.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these steps in order until the issue is resolved.

  • How can I put previously purchased music and videos on my new iPhone 4s?

    I purchased the music back when I have a 4th generation ipod nano. I was able to retrieve it from the iTunes library, but cannot seem to copy and paste it to my iPhone. I even tried file > transfer purchases from iPhone (as I read it should ask if I want to put the songs that are on iTunes on the phone) and that didnt work! PLEASE HELP!

    Huh?  File has nothing to do with it.  Do not click File.  Forget File. It transfers FROM iphone TO itunes.  This is NOT what you are trying to do.
    You need to sycn your iphone.  This is very basic and is certainly covered in the manual.
    Open itunes.
    Connect iphone.
    Select what you want to sync.
    Sync.

  • Playing Music and Video at the same time

    I would like to play a song from my music collection and while it's playing, play a video that has no audio on it from the video collection.  When I try to do this, one shuts the other off.  I switched the behavior from default to showcase, still no luck.  Is there perhaps an app available on the appstore that anybody knows of that can play an audio on loop and a video on loop at the same time?  

    i found a fix for WoW
    Open the World of Warcraft folder on your hard drive (Default Folder: C:\Program Files\World of Warcraft).
    - Open the *** folder.
    - Open the Config.*** file using a text editor, like WordPad.
    Add the following line to the list if it doesn't exist:
    SET SoundOutputSystem "x"
    Set "x" to be 1 first, if it still occurs bump it to 2 and so on up to 4.
    you must restart WoW everytime you change the number.
    heres the link in the WoW forums.

  • The sound quality of my speaker suddenly got really poor when playing music or videos.  Sounds like an old AM radio or Sputnik.  Pretty sure it's hardware related but maybe not.  Thoughts on what the problem might be and if it can be repaired?

    The batterys the ipods come with are very sensetive somtimes they dont react right to the first couple of charges. Try fully charging it and then leaving it on until its completely drained a few times. If that doesnt work it might be a lemon.

  • I have no sound when playing music but ringtones and speak phone works!

    I have an iPhone 4s and all of a sudden I cannot hear any sound when playing music or watching tv etc via my phone but I can hear my ringtone and text etc and I can also hear calls if I place them on speakerphone!
    I have performed a hard reset and also plugged my phone into iTunes but this still hasn't solved the problem.
    Unfortunately my phone has a cracked screen....totally unrelated to the sound problem as everything was working fine after I dropped the phone, however, as I have been informed, this has now invalidated the warranty from apple, even though I am not asking them to fix the screen, just the speaker, therefor I am not entitled to a new phone from apple! Anyway.....if anyone out there can help me in anyway, or can suggest anything that I can try to fix this problem, please, please let me know.
    Many thanks in advance.

    My headphones work by the way.
    Also, when I try to increase, or decrease the volume when playing music or trying to listen to something....even my videos, the buttons on the side do not adjust the volume or attempt to adjust it. I have gone into settings and sound and made sure my phone is not on mute and made sure the setting is checked so that the buttons on the side control the volume! I just don't know what to do!

    No sound only when playing music. 2013 11:05 PM.  My wife had the same issue with her iPhone 4.  The volume bar was grey inside the music app and the volume buttons on side of phone didn't work.  Cleaned out the charging port using rubbing achoal and a Q-Tip.

    Hi
    I have the same problem. iPhone 4S with newest update. No sound while playing music (grey volume buttons). No sound for alerts e.g. incoming SMS.

    Issues is still open. All contact cleaned (ear-phone etc.)
    Please help.
    With kind regards,

  • Why do I get a constant clicking through my ear buds when playing music or videos?

    Why do I get a constant clicking through my ear buds when playing music or videos?  I am using Samsung phone earbuds.  The clicking is at a 1 second intervals, and actually partially drops out the sounds. Thanks

    Have you tried another set of earbuds so that you can rule out a problem with the Samsung's?

  • Can't type or play music and videos.

    I spilled water on my iPod, now every time when i'm typing it blocks after a few letters.
    I also can't play music and videos, when i pres play it just sets itself back on pause.
    Anyone has advice?

    Place the iPod in a sealed container iwth uncooked rice for a week to dry the iPod . Then try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer          
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.
