Earpiece on new iPhone 4 not working after upgrading to 4.2.1

I purchased my first Apple product (iPhone 4) 3 weeks ago with firmware 4.1. Finally I decided to upgrade to 4.2.1. Now when making a call I can't hear a tone or anyone talking to me. Switching to speaker works fine and so do the earbuds when connected. I read many have had the same issue and they just plugged/unplugged their earbuds a few times. Seems the iPhone forgets that the earbuds were unplugged. I tried the same and it didn't help. There is nothing stuck in the jack either. Now what?

I'll lay odds there's a piece of lint or something stuck in the headphone jack. Take a look and try to get it out with a pin or something. Happens occasionally, pretty much always to men as opposed to women. Mainly because we tend to carry our phones in our pants pockets instead of a purse.

  • Brand New iTouch Not Working After Upgrade

    I have a MacBook running 10.4.11 and the latest iTunes software, if that helps any.
    I just bought an iTouch on Black Friday and received it today (via Amazon). It worked fine out of the box. I put music and videos on it and it was sweet. I wanted to put applications on it, but the software needed to be updated. All right, fine. I updated to 2.2. Now when it restores, I get Error -36 and it says that the iPod cannot be synced to because a file is missing. I can use the apps fine, but I didn't buy this thing to play games on it.
    So is there a way I can downgrade my iTouch software to 2.1 or something and have it be functional again?

    Welcome to the discussions,
    Did you see if there are any software updates for your new macbook available?
    Did you try to log in as a new user and see if you can connect?
    I read that in some cases installing 10.6.4 from the scratch instead of using the migration assistant worked.
    Also check if image capture is set to open no application when a camera is detected.

  • IPhone 4's WIFI has been not working after upgraded to 6.1.3(10B329)

         My IPhone 4 was working fine with its WIFI when it is running in default IOS version, I believe it was 5.x.x version, however after I upgraded to 6.1.3(10B329) then WIFI got very aweired issues again and again.starting from then I never get my WIFI working again:
    1. Sometimes I can connect to my home's network and keep alive for 1-2 minutes then WIFI will not work on IPone, my home's router is not working either, I need to restart my home's router manually;
    2. I can connect to my office's network and keep alive 5-10 minutes then WIFI is not working, however my office router is not affected; however the following days then I can't connect WIFI to office's network any more.
    3. I tried to connect to other public area's free network via WIFI, however never joined in.
         I called Apple's service centre couple of times they have no clues, they said they never met this problem before for WIFI not working after upgraded to IOS 6.1.3 and no suggestions from them at all, every time I called them they gave me the same suggestion, such as restore-re-install, check your own router etc, nothing help, however my friend bought a brand new IPhone 4 with default IOS version 6.1.3 which is working perfectly without any issues on its WIFI then I believe this is a completely software issue.
         I know this is a general issue for Apple users and I refuse to upgrade to higher version as I am not sure the higher version can fix this issue however I am pretty sure the newer version of IOS did bring a lot of new bugs, anyone can provide me any suggestions guys ? THANKS A LOTTTTTTTT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Terrence

    I have fixed this issue after upgraded my router's firmware finally, this is a completely compatibility issue between Apple and other third party manufactures, hopefully we can get compabitlity list for each future IOS version ahead of time which can potentially avoid such kind of embarrassing situations moving forward, thanks !

  • Iphone 4 Home button not working after upgrade to OS 4.3.5

    Iphone 4 Home button not working after upgrade to OS 4.3.5.Please help!!!!!!!!

    It seems that settings of mail accounts have something to do with it. I've delete my gmail account and am now using Microsoft Exchange. It seems better, yet not perfect. The issue is definitely due to OS 4.3.1
    Apple answer is - no answer. It is a shame that the quality of their products, in terms of design and concept, is not match by a care for customers. It is not normal that I, as a customer, have to spend hours reading Apple Discussions forum to try to understand what the problem is. A little more respect for a customer that spend big $$$ buying their products wouldn't hurt.

  • My built in camera is not working after upgrading to a new Skype version

    my built in camera is not working after upgrading to a new Skype version

    See this thread:
    https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5306216?tstart=0
    FIX: 
    1. You need Time Machine
    2. Go to folder /Library/CoreMediaIO/Plug-Ins/DAL/
    3. Copy AppleCamera.plugin to good place (usb memory stick is the best place).
    4. Go to Time machine in date that skype work fine.
    5. Change AppleCamera.plugin with file from Time Machine
    6. Restart system, Now skype need to work with camera.
    If that doesnt pass,

  • Ipohone 4 hotspot not working after upgrading to ios7.1 ?

    my ipohone 4 hotspot not working after upgrading to ios7.1 but my some friends having iphone 4s its works fine and those having iphone 4 it's not working although we all have same operator and same operating system (i.e ios 7.1).I think this is problem only  with iphone 4 users with ios 7.1 , so apple plz fix it in ur next update.

    You don't like the answer?
    Again it's not a bug, use a supported carrier if you want Personal Hotspot.
    Read the list one more time, if carrier is not on the list, IOS7.1 patch the loophole.

  • TS1702 My app store, Apple ID, safari, and most other apps do not work after upgrading to iSO 6, How do i solve this problem?

    My app store, Apple ID, safari, and most other apps do not work after upgrading to iSO 6, How do i solve this problem? Can somebody help me please?

    The App store is a problem for many and I have not seen a solution.
    What is "wrong" with your Apple ID?
    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is 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.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.

  • Personal hotspot not working after upgrading to ios7

    Personal hotspot not working after upgrading to ios7

    I was having this problem (iphone 5 wouldn't work as hotspot for my PC laptop) and had tried everything suggested on these message boards, so I finally went to the Apple Genius Bar and they fixed it for me.  Here's what they did:
    1) Turned the Hotspot off on my iphone
    2) Went to the Control Panel on my laptop to "Network and Internet" > "Network and Sharing Center" > "Manage Wireless Networks" (on the left navigation panel) and deleted my iphone from the list of WiFi connections I've attempted.
    3) Flipped the manual WiFi switch on my laptop to Off and then back On again (to reset it)
    4) Turned the Hotspot on my iphone back on
    After that, when I tried to connect, it worked.  Hope this works for someone else.

    The Mybook Icon only appears if it is connected via USB.
    After using Firewire and getting used to the speed...USB 2.0 is like a Corvette racing a Veyron...lol
    I am not upset on these issues, it is normal for new OS to have these problems...unfortunately, even OSX is not invincible.
    I'm sure Apple/Steve is on every Programers A*s for a solution.
    I still think APPLE'S OSX will still be the future of Operating system!
    For now, still waiting for the patch and hopefully soon.
    Suggestions are still Welcome for a Solutions:-)

  • Web Service is not working after Upgrade SAP EHP6

    Hi ,
    Recently we upgraded SAP ECC 6.0 to EHP 6.
    We have a custom web service which is consumed in  .NET Application to get the Sold To from Sales Order.
    the service is working perfectly before upgrade and it is not working after upgrade to EHP6.
    When I tested the Service in WS Navigator in SAP, it is working fine.
    We raised a message to SAP and SAP analyze the Traces and confirm that the HTTP Request Header coming from .NET application is not having User ID and Password , so it is throwing exception from SAP as unauthorized.
    But in service it is configuration as basic authentication and log on using user id and password and .NET application is calling service by passing user ID & Password.
    Customer is not happy as it is working before Upgrade and SAP confirmed every thing fine in SAP, but the service is not working.
    we did the below steps.
    Regenerated the configuration
    Re imported the Certificates
    Activated the service in SICF.
    Please let me know if anybody have same problem or if any steps we are  missing.
    thanks.
    Uma

    after changing the .NET Application , Service is working fine.

  • Internal speakers not working after upgrading to Maverics

    internal speakers not working after upgrading to Maverics

    There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
    1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
    2. Run Software Update and make sure you have a fully up-to-date installation of OS X.
    3. If you've installed an application called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and restart. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
    4. If you've installed a software equalizer called "Boom" or anything similar, update or delete it and restart.
    5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
    6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select the Output tab. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them. Move the Volume sliders all the way to the right.
    7. If a red light is coming from the audio-out port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
    If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
    8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Restart and test.
    9. If you have a MacBook Air, turn off Bluetooth and restart.
    10. Start up in safe mode. Don't log in; just restart as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
    11. Reset the NVRAM.
    12. Reset the SMC.
    13. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data.
    14. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.
