2 New Blackberries' 9310 and Headphone jacks don't work...

The headphone jacks only work when the headphones are half way in the jack, if fully in the jack they don't work, my husband is extremely disappointed that he has to listen to his music with the headphones falling out of the jack.

Hello,
Often, this is caused by using non-OEM headsets, specifically those that lack the microphone component. If you check the plug on both the OEM and non-OEM, you may find a different number of black stripes...these stripes separate out the different functions on that post. If the non-OEM post does not match the OEM post, then it will not align correctly inside of the outlet on the device, requiring you to pull in/out to find the proper alignment to make them work. In your case, what I'd therefore deduce is that the post difference with the headset in use is so great that the post just cannot fit adequately into the jack. But this is not a problem with the jack nor the BB...rather it is with the headset in use not being compatible.
Good luck!

My iPad 1 headphone jack don't work anymore.HELP!!!

My IPad headphone jack don't work anymore. I have tested it with three headphones.Sorry I'm german and my englisch isn't the best.

Moo97-
If your iPad is still under warrantee, contact Apple for advice on how to get it repaired or replaced.
If your iPad is no longer covered by the warrantee, search the web for iPad Repair. There is probably an iPad repair center near you.

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...

New software downloaded and now emails don't work?

Just downloaded new software and I can't get my emails to come through - keeps saying cannot connect to server? My hotmail account worked but my work email account (exchange) didn't? Any ideas?

Thanks for your reply.
Sorry to be basic - I know not too much about PCs unfortunately - but how do I run the diagnostic test ? If it is within iTunes then I can't do it as I can't open it in the first place, but if there is a different command I can use to run the diagnostics then please let me know it.
I have confused the issue somewhat as well - apologies. It is a new CD writer I have installed - not any sort of hard drive. My PC does have two hard drives installed as I added an additional one once I installed iTunes as it was overloading the memory. The two drives have been working fine in tandem since.
The new CD Writer replaces the original one from the PC which I suspect had grown old and tired. All I have done if physically put the CD Writer inside the PC box, and switched over the power cable and data cable from the (now redundant) old CD Writer, and in to the new one.
Hope that clarifies, and please let me know how to run the further testing you mention in order that I can post the results.
Thanks

Speaker and audio jack is not working

My laptop speaker and headphone jack is not working.So am not able listen anything on laptop.Please give me a solution on it.

Hi ,
Thank you for visiting the HP Forums! A great place where you can find solutions for your issues with help from the community!
I came across your post about the Notebook, and wanted to assist you! I have looked into your issue about your HP Pavilion g series Notebook and issues with the sound. Here is a link to help troubleshoot issues with the sound. Please note remove any and all USB devices. Disconnect all non-essential devices and headphones, as these could cause some issues. Here is an automated tool for troubleshooting Windows 7. It has a built in Audio repair built into it. I hope this helps with the sound. Thanks.

Headphone and mic jacks do not work

I disabled the onboard audio drivers to install an Audigy 2ZS board in my new Dimension 900. Now the Dell factory installed mic and headphone jacks on the front of the computer do not work. I'm assuming thats because I disabled the onboard drivers? Any way to get them working with the 2ZS card? I understand that the mic and headphone jacks have cables that can be hooked to a card. Does the 2ZS support this kind of hookup?
Thanks

Hey everyone
It's very possible to connect your front jacks to Audigy. I'm currently using my headphones that way.
Here is what you do:
. On top you audigy card
<IMG src="http://images0.fotki.com/v203/photos//2786/2503093/CreativeAudigy2ZS-vi.jpg">
2. Audigy pin assignments (connect you front panel cable to things marked in red)
AUDIGY FRONT PANEL CONNECTIONS======================================= =========================
- Analog Ground< 2 - Headphone Out (Left) 3 - Audio Backpanel Mute -- mute (ground) the backpanel when using headphones< 4 - Headphone Out (Right) 5 - same as #3< 6 - Mic Input 7 - key pin (shouldn't be there) 8 - VREF out -- voltage reference for Mic 9 - MIC IN MUTE -- ground when mic isn't plugged in, +2VDC when mic is plugged in0 - Audio cable detect -- will be ground when headphones are plugged in (not used)
I'm still working out the kinks. For instance, if you've ever had an Audigy Dri've (comes with Platinum and Pro version of Audigy), you know that when you plug in headphones, sound to speakers mutes and Creative Speaker Settings panel automatically switches to "Headphones". That was nice. I don't know if it's possible this way.
Enjoy,
Igor

I can't hear my phone calls unless I put it on speaker. Tried cleaning by blowing on earpiece and headphone jack and pushing near front camera and earpiece speaker...no luck. HELP!

If you've tried everything mentioned you probably have a failed earpiece. One option is to get a BlueTooth headset and use it for all calls. It will be cheaper than the $199 out-of-warranty replacement price from Apple (if it's still in warranty or AppleCare it will be free). Good BT headsets can be had for around $40. And it will hold you over until the Next New Thing from Apple is available

I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive. I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto. How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive?

I have a new MAcBook Air and my photos don't fit on the internal hard drive. I want to store my photos on an external hard drive which I will connect to my Air when using Iphoto. How do I set an external hard drive as the default drive in Iphoto?

Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.

My MacBook Pro with Lion 10.7.2, only audio on the headset, and speaker mute. With Windows, the audio works in speaker and headphone jack. What is the problem? What's the solution?

There is probably a red light on inside your headphone port, indicating that the analog/digital switch in there is stuck in the digital position. Insert a headphone plug and wigle it around, especially in the horizontal plane, as you insert and remove it several times. This will usually unstick the switch and restore normal operation. If it doesn't, the machine will need to be repaired.
This has been a fairly common problem, but in most cases it is easily cured as described above.

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):
http://www8.hp.com/uk/en/support-search.html?tab=1#/qryterm=HP6100&search_search type=s-002
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.

I need to have audio out from HDMI and headphone jack simultaneously

I need to have audio out from HDMI and headphone jack simultaneously.
I seem to be able to select one or the other, but not both ? !
Thanks

No. You can only use one sound output:
Why can't I select HDMI audio on my Mac mini?
If you connect an HDMI display or television to a Mac mini (Mid 2010 or later), you might not be able to select the HDMI audio device (in System Preferences > Sound > Output). This can happen if you also have headphones plugged in to the computer. Unplug the headphones to be able to select HDMI audio.

I have a digital voice recorder with a 3.5mm mic and headphone jack and want to transfer some recorded lecture to my mac book pro. The mac book does not have 3.5mm jacks. Does anyone know if a jack to USB converter would work?

I have a digital voice recorder with a 3.5mm microphone and headphone jack and want to transfer some recorded lectures to my mac book pro. The mac book does not have 3.5mm jacks. Does anyone know if a jack to USB converter would work?

Is there a pattern to the time of day or other detail that may be
traced back to a OS X system cause of this odd phenomenon?
Are there any copies of system files on any of the attached USB
external drives? Any libraries, such as iTunes, iPhoto, etc?
Once the drives are indexed by Spotlight, are their permissions
ignored by the OS X? Content, if neutral, should not affect the
wake or sleep cycle; especially if they're ignored by the OS X.
Could there be a bad cable or other component? If so that would
be a difficult process of elimination to detect it. Usually replacing
most suspect components in the USB stream (external to Macs)
is a rote way to mechanically test that idea; & not 100% sure.
Does the equipment all have a good ground to the utility or house
electrical field? An intermittent ground may affect more than sleep.
Hard to say at this point. Maybe a late-night talk radio guru on
remote viewing could peer into your situation and sleuth it out?
Sorry to have run out of ideas, but the process must be electrical
& mechanical to some extent. - Or perhaps odd software inspired.
Do you have any phone-home spyware items inside, just jumping
at the chance to spill your information? Little Snitch may help.
PS: Perhaps the computer needs to go into Apple & have a genius
or product specialist at AASP test the unit thoroughly... BlueTooth?

My earphones mic and volume buttons don't work ever since the iOS 8.1 update! Please help me. One discussion person says they bought a new pair and THEY don't work either. What do I do? I'm about to have a breakdown!

I rely heavily on my earphones because well... I'm lazy but they don't work. They work on my friend's iPhone who hasn't updated yet but I've updayed and the mic and volume buttons don't work. Please make a correct update!

Nope, still same problem. I did an install, didn't work. Then I completely removed my IDT driver, restarted, installed the driver, restarted, same problem.
When I troubleshoot my audio it always asks me which one to troubleshoot. It only works if I do one of the "Speakers / HP - IDT" but I don't know why it has so many devices listed with the same name.
Also, after I troubleshoot and I can hear audio, if I go to "Manage audio devices" it still shows that no audio device is installed, which is why the webinars won't work.

T420 Headphone Jack won't work in Windows 7

Hi all,
I've recently got a T420 4180A32 (Conexant CX20672) and the headphone jack doesn't work under Windows 7. It works when I boot (natively) into Ubuntu, but obviously when I run a Virtual Machine into Ubuntu through Windows, it doesn't work either.
I have:
- Uninstalled and reinstalled the driver version that came installed.
- Installed, Uninstalled and reinstalled a newer driver version.
- Uninstalled the old driver and installed the new one.
- Reverted to using the generic High Definition Audio driver. The speakers work fine but again, headphone jack doesn't.
- Established that it obviously isn't a hardware problem.
- Uninstalled then reinstalled DirectX
- Tried various headphones on the off chance that they were the problem. They weren't.
I haven't:
- Done a full reinstall of windows 7 (although I might)
- Tried Windows 8, although again, I might as I have an unused licence for it and I really want my headphones to work.
That's about all the info I can give. Besides this problem, the laptop runs great!
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

I have now noticed that when using ubuntu the headphones work but that won't mute the speakers, so I am starting to think it could actually be the jack, as the headphones, as a device, arent dectected by ubuntu either, they just work because they are plugged in, I guess it's the way each OS works.
Check if that happens in your computer as well. Also, where did you check the prices of compatible sound cards? Which should I buy? I may go to a Lenovo store to get it fixed.
