Buzzing sound from iPhone 4S headphone port

Is it normal for my iPhone 4S to make a buzzing sound from the headphone port even though the phone is in standby and when it's on? Should I go to the apple store and exchange it?
Thanks

Hello shludington,
Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
If you are hearing unexpected sounds from your headphones when they are plugged in to your iPhone, try these troubleshooting steps first:
You can fix most headset issues with a few steps. Try these first:
Unplug the headset and clear any debris from the headset jack. Then plug it back in.
Make sure the headset is plugged in all the way. If you’re using a case, remove it to make sure it’s not getting in the way.
Check the headset cable, connector, remote, and earbuds for damage. Make sure they’re not blocked or dirty.
Try using another headset. If the issue happens with the other headset, contact Apple Support for help. If the other headset works, contact the headset manufacturer.
Try using a different iOS device with your headset. If the issue happens with the other iOS device, contact the headset manufacturer. For Apple headsets, contact Apple support.
From:
If your headset isn't working - Apple Support
All the best,
Jeremy

No sound from iPhone 5 headphone port stopped working

No sound from iPhone 5 headphone port stopped working

Try a restart.
If no effect, then try a reset.
If no effect, then try a restore from backup.
If no effect, then try a restore as new.
If no effect, likely a hardware issue, and you should schedule an appointment at a local Apple store.

Buzzing sound from headphones.

I did a search for this issue and got a few results but unfortunately none of the threads seem to have a solution. Just started today, that when I plug my earbuds into the audio port, there is a loud buzzing sound from the left earbud, even pressing mute wont stop it. I tried restarting the machine but it still persists, hoping somebody here has had the same issue and can help.
Thanks in Advance.

Thanks for the replies, I'll try and eliminate environmental issues, if that doesn't help I'll just have to ring customer care about it.
Thanks again.

When i play a video or movie i get a buzzing sound from the speakers. how do i solve this problem?

I get this buzzing sound from my speakers when I play a video, or movie either from the internet or playing a DVD. What can I do to solve this problem

A: There is no such thing as an unlocked iPhone 3Gs in the United States. ALL iPhone 3Gs's sold in the US are locked to AT&T. AT&T will NOT unlock iPhones, therefore it is not legitimately unlocked.
B: Sprint is a CDMA network as others have mentioned. They do NOT use SIM cards. The iPhone 3Gs will NEVER work on Sprint. Ever. It's not physically possible.
Either your Uncle misunderstood or he was mislead. Send it back and tell him to get his money back. Buy an iPhone in India from a supported carrier.

HT1430 no sound from iphone 4 oheadphones are connected can i hear music nly if or some one talking to me

no sound from iphone only if headphones are connected can i hear music or some one speaking to me

Thanks, but I should have clarified: I already have USB syncing set up with iTunes on my Mac and have been adding music to my iPhone for years that way; now with the latest IOS, it no longer appears to be working. I follow the exact steps I always have (and which are outlined in the link provided), but no actual music is downloaded to my phone- if I am not connected to a wi-fi network, I cannot listen to my music unless I download it from iCloud. (And downloading it from iCloud is a laborious task because I have many songs.)

Verizon Westel 327W abroad - Buzzing sound from the Power Adapter ?

So I moved to Caribbean Islands for schooling and the DSL Modem from local company here was plain 1 port one. The voltage here is 220V, so I have put a transformer and then plugged my Westel 327W into 110V and it works great.
However, I am noticing a buzzing sound from within the power adapter. The adapter is running somewhat hot since I plugged it in a few days ago. Should I be concerned about this buzzing sound or is it just that its sitting on my desktop and I am noticing it now ? Its loud enough to be heard in a completely quite small room....
Thanks

Hi D_U, sorry to hear of your issue, sounds electrical and thereby out of my scope of support.

No sound from speakers or headphones on my hp pavilion dv6-6c50us

no sound from speakers or headphones on my hp pavilion dv6-6c50us. Speakers are not muted and volume is up. May have happened after a system update

Hi,
Try the following.
Download the relevant IDT Audio installer on the links below and save it to your Downloads folder.
IDT Audio Installer - Windows 7.
IDT Audio Installer - Windows 8.
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to launch the Start-up Menu and then select f10 to enter the bios menu. Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Let Windows fully load - it will automatically load an audio driver, but just let this complete. Then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, right click the speaker icon in the Taskbar and select Playback Devices. Left click 'Speakers and Headphones' once to highlight it and then click the Set Default button - check if you now have audio.

No sound from rear audio out port?

Hey guys.
I am trying to troubleshoot a sound issue with a Vista Home Basic machine.
I can't really give you all the MOBO specs etc because I am not currently in front of the machine. I can however confirm that it is using a Realtek chipset and is configured using the Realtek Sound Manager software.
I am really just wanting to use basic sound (i.e. just speaker, not 5., 7. etc).
I am trying to make use of an old stereo system by using a 3.5mm aux jack to dual RCA (white and red) plugs.
I can get sound when I plug the aux jack into the front earphones port but I cannot get sound when I try and use the analogue audio out (lime green) port at the rear of the machine. Vista states that it is working correctly and has a tick next to the speakers but no sound is produced by the speakers.
The MOBO has the following available audio connectors:
Analogue = Mic in (Pink) Audio in (light blue) Audio out (lime green)
Centre Speaker (Orange) Rear Surround (Black) Mid Surround (Grey)
Digital = x SPDIF
You may ask at this point, why not just use the front headphones jack? Well, the problem is that it seems to be very sensiti've in that Vista keeps reporting that the jack is cycling between a connected and disconnected state.
I also cannot use the SPDIF, as the old stereo only supports aux left and right RCA.
Also, when I try and get one of the rear ports to work, I have made sure that nothing is connected to the sound ports at the front as I know that this can cause problems.
When I plug in the 3.5mm jack into the green port, the Realtek sound manager kicks in and says that "a jack as been connected". I then confirm that I have infact connected the jack to the rear audio out port. I then follow the steps in the wizard but am not able to get sound.
I made sure that I used the most basic settings (i.e. speakers and not 5. etc).
I even tried the grey, black and orange ports (even though I know they are used for surround sound setups) and still no luck.
One interesting setting I did notice was that in Winamp, I had to select the "allow mono speaker" setting to have it play sound through the front headphones port.
However, when I was configuring the rear green port in the Realtex Sound Manager software, there was no mono option. There was only stereo, 5., 7. and some quad....... thing.
Any ideas guys on how to get the rear green port working?
I am wondering if it has something to with a connector on the MOBO. But as I said, Vista and Realtek manager seem to report that all is well.
My thanks in advance.

I cannot hear sound through my iMac Headphone port,

I cannot hear sound through my iMac Headphone port, this is a very new computer. I can hear sound through the usb port of the device. How can this be fixed? Headphones are selected as an Output device.
Please help in any way possible, it is becoming quite a concern as it was just working a matter of hours ago.

usb does not carry audio at all it's a serial digital bus
things one connect to usb which play audio act the role of being usb audio cards only 1 audio card can be active at the time so if you connect an usb audio card the internal audio card is muted
this cause your headset to be muted
disconnect the usb audio card and you will be able to use your headset
if you wish to use a headset an an usb audio card at the same time the headset needs to be connected to the usb audio card

Are the sounds from iPhone suppose to be on iTunes?

are the sounds from iPhone suppose to be on iTunes on my playlist in my phone and computer?

I have the 4 and 5S and other than the finger print reader there's really not much difference in ease of use. In my opinion the finger print reader makes the phone easier, or perhaps I should say nicer to use if you use the passcode lock. Both phones have the same OS version and operate the same way albeit the 5S is faster and smoother. You also get a bit of software eye candy with the 5S thats not on the 4. The camera on the 5S is significantly better than the 4 which I thought was quite good considering its a phone. Or is it a camera with a phone? No matter, there are other small differences but I think you'll appreciate what the 5S has to offer.

Buzzing Sound coming out of audio port on MacBook Pro

There is a buzzing/electronic noise coming out of my headphone port. It is not the humming sound that usually happens when I play audio. It is very loud. How can I fix this?

Also, for some reason it gets quieter when my hands are close to the computer. When I move away it makes noise.

Buzzing sound from earpiece

No idea why it's happening had the phone for a year and a bit (out of warranty) and now I can't make out a single word without running around looking for heaphones all i can hear is a loud buzzing sound only when the other person talks it kind of makes them sound like a bee, is there a fix for this or can someone direct me to a previous post that can help?

Hi again,
I've tried a couple of things since I first posted:-
There was no buzzing at all when taking a call through a pair of Astro headphones.
Unplugging these from the 3.5mm socket during the conversation stopped the buzzing from the earpiece completely (again leading me to believe that the speaker diaphragm is not defective or dirty).
The next call I made had no buzzing whatsoever from the earpiece.
The call after that did have buzzing again (audible as soon as the ringing tone starts).
Buzzing does not seem exclusive to either making or receiving the call.
I hope this is useful in shedding more light on what's going on here.

No sound from HP G62 laptop and can no longer get sound from speakers or headphone jack . USB sworks

have an HP G62 laptop. I can no longer receive sound from speakers or from headphone jack. If I plug speakers into usb - I will get sound. Any ideas?

I don't think I have anything to offer that you haven't done. In Device Manager, Device status says "working properly" and you've reinstalled this driver.
Realtek Audio Driver for Windows XP
Right?
The only other thing I know to do is restore the hard drive to its original factory fresh contents.
