Why does my iPod automatically adjust it's volume setting when I plug in different headphones?

So, I frequently switch between a pair of earpods and a different type of headphone, and when I switch, my iPod volume control self-adjusts.  What is it doing?  Is it something to do with imedance?
Thanks!
Jason

Hello,
Apple has a profile for each headphone you just put. When you plug a pair of headphones, and you don't change the volume, the volume changes itself to the previous time you putted the same headphones. This happen because the profile saves itself in a cache inside the Apple filesystem. If there were no cache, everytime you connect a pair of headphones, you will **** your ears. So that's the problem here.
Cheers.

    Hi pa_tom,
    In your printers folder on your computer, is the default printer set to your printer, or your printer- fax?

  • My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. Any tips?

    My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. I tried restarting it a few times, nothing worked. I looked up many tutorials, and still nothing did the trick. Any tips?

    - 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
    - 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.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • Why does my ipod automatically reset itself when im listening to it?!

    I will be clicking through songs and all of a sudden it just resets itself...and also if im fast forwarding through a song it also just resets it self.....everything it up to date so what is the problem
    5th gen video   Windows XP  

    You could reset iPod when scrolling trough songs very quickly, you might have pressed -MENY- by mistake while scrolling. Do not give Your iPod too much commands in same time, i'd bug myself if somebody push me round too much. It's a good machine but do not over do it.
    Hope this helped

  • Why does my iPod automatically turn off?

    When i turn it on just to play multiplay or a long game for hours, my iPod turns off. Any help will do.

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

  • Why does my ipod touch 4th generation lose power even when it's turned off?

    When my ipod touch is turned off for a couple of days, it loses most of it's charge.  Is this normal? 

    Are you turning the iPod Off via depressing the Power button until the Slide to Power Off appear and sliding it? If not the iPod is sleeping and the iPod is still doing stuff when sleeping and it is normal for the battery to fully discharge is  a few days, especially if wifi is on.
    If you are really powering the iPod off that is not normal and indicates a hardware problem.
    Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Re: Why does my printer automatically go to send a fax when I just want to print?

    I just installed and then uninstalled a Canon printer to my computer. Now, I cannot print. When I go to print, it takes me to a fax page. My 6600 is designated as the default printer.  Please help.

    Welcome to the HP Forums okbyme,
    I see by your post that the printer is set as the default printer, but when trying to print it defaults to the fax driver.
    I can help you with this issue.
    Clear out the print spool folder.
    How to Clear Current Print Queue In Windows Vista & Windows 7.
    From the application, go to file, print and select the printer in the print dialogue box to see if it will print.
    Try opening the application, go to file, print, right click on the printer driver and select set as default.
    Close the window and try again to see if the default printer changed back again.
    If you are not actively using your Fax driver then remove it from your Devices and Printers folder.
    The only other option would be to fully uninstall and reinstall the printer software. The printer driver might have become corrupted.

  • Why does the iphone say it has 16 gb but when i plug it in it shows 26.2 gb with only a capacity of 13.4gb?

    ok guys i have done my fair share of reading and i am so lost. on my box it says i have a 16 gig iphone 4 verizon white. my question is everytime i plug my phone in it pops up with a little tiny AutoRun icon and i hit open files. well it shows that i have 13.4gb of 26.2gb. but in iTunes it only shows my phone with 13.4 with 12 available for apps and music. why is it that my phone realy has 26 gigs and i can only access half of that?
    Is my phone realy using 13gb just for software? that is way to much for me. any body else see this, what about any fixs or what not?

    There's no way a 16GB model phone has more than than capacity.  I have no idea what you mean by AutoRun icon.  Is that an app you downloaded?  Did you jailbreak?
    The "advertised" capacity of all storage devices is based on a decimal definition of "Gigabytes" where 1 GB is defined as 1,000,000,000 bytes.  However computers see and calculate storage based on binary definitions where 1 GB = 1,073 742,824 bytes.  Thus a 16 GB "decimal" device is only 14.9 real, binary gigabytes.
    Also, there are additional loses due to formatting overhead and the iOS.  RAM memory is separate and not used from the supplied flash disk.

  • Why does my Mac keep getting the bouncing file folder when I plug in in the UK? It's costing £100 each time to fix it.

    I can plug my Mac in to the wall at home and certain surge protectors, but for some reason and it's a costly thing to discover, but some surge protectors kill my Mac. I get the floating file folder with question mark and have to get the power strip inside replaced.
    <Re-Titled By Host>

    It seems that you are experiencing some unusual problems with your electrical utility.  I suggest that you get in touch with knowledgeable repair facility technicians and get their advice regarding a proper surge protector or a regulated power supply.  Any electrical device that is subjected to extreme voltage spikes can be damaged.
