The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly

The head phone jack on my brand new iPod touch 5th generation is not working properly. It has sound without the headphones in but when I plug them in it has no sound, it's low, or poppy. I had only used my apple supplied headphones once before and it worked fine. I know it's not the headphones because I tried them on my girlfriends phone and they worked fine.

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. 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 iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

My iPhone is acting up again; freezing up during phone calls and now the head phone jack intermittently doesn't work.

I got my iPhone 5 back in February 2013 and for the most part of the year I enjoyed it. Then I started having issues with it. First of all the WiFi randomly quit working. I didn't even update it. So I tried updating it, resetting, and restoring it. While it was under warranty I tried getting the issue fixed, but Apple CS blew me off saying it was accidental damage and I should have gotten Apple Care. This time Verizon covered their *** and replaced the phone for me even though it was out of their 6 month warranty period. I think I posted this experience before.
Now my iPhone is acting up again. It first started freezing up during phone calls and now the head phone jack intermittently doesn't work. Again, resetting, restoring, and updating it did not fix these issues.

The original issue they didn't state exactly why it was Accidental Damage. After running through some troubleshooting, they just stated it was Accidental Damage and that I should file a claim with my insurance, and that Apple Care would have covered it; then closed the request.
I've tried resetting settings, restoring it as new, and that was a no go. When it freezes up during calls I also have to perform a hard reset by pressing and holding both the power and the home buttons to get it functioning at all again(just completely freezes, won't respond to touch or home button.) I noticed that the proximity sensor isn't responding as well, so I have to tilt it away from my ear while in a call to keep from pressing the buttons on the touchscreen with the side of my face. I avoid phonecalls now, and text exclusively.
I don't live anywhere near a Genius Bar so I'm stuck with the online support to Apple. And since I don't have a landline, I get charged for their phone support so I tend not to use it.
Getting two lemons in a row seems coincidental so I'm wondering if it's a bad batch Verizon got then distributed out.

I have put my head phone jack surcuely in but it's not making much sound. I have turned it up the whole way but it only gives me a tiny whiny little bit of sound. It only does this if I push it really far into my ear!!! Help!

I own the movies and I want them to stay in my iTunes library basically forever.
But in both cases the file name no longer shows in the movie list, so I don't know how to re-download it from the Cloud.
iTunes prefs > Store > Show iTunes in the Cloud purchases.
This will show all your iTunes purchases in your library with a cloud icon down arrow. Click the icon to redownload or click on Play to stream without downloading.
Also see this , -> Download past purchases
and techncially, you don't "own" the movie, You simply have a license to use it.
Yet the first thing iTunes does when you hit the delete key is tell you that it will remove the movie forever from all devices and the library.
Actually, no it does not tell you that.
FYI: You should keep copies of all yoru iTnue spurahses as the labels/movie studios/copyright owners can pull their product at anytime and it won't be available to redownload.

My head phone jack isn't working. Only works with the new headphones that have three rings at the bottom. My regular ones with two rings don't work with the computer anymore. Anyone know a fix?

Get the new keyboard at eBay and replace by yourself may be cheaper way, though you're required higher skill and well know about MacBook Air.

How can I safely get a broken-off head phone jack out of the receptacle?

The head phone jack broke off in the iPad. It is too far down to remove with tweezers. Any suggestions on how to get it out safely? I sent it to the company and was told that unless I fixed the dent on the corner and scratches to the charging base at a cost of $255, they could not fix it. So now I am trying to figure out how to get it out myself.
Thank you for your help,
Karen

Use super-glue on the tip of a jeweller screwdriver (tiny screwdriver) to extract the phone jack.

I have a 24" mid 2008 imac when i plug the head phone jack into my stereo i have a hum that never goes away.

i have tried grounding both the head unit and also the computer it self and all i find is the noise is still there. what can i do to get rid of the noise? i think the problem is in the grounding of the head phone jack it's self but i dont know. has any one else had this same problem? thanks for your time.

How did you confirm grounding? How old is your house? Does it have 3-prong outlets? If not, there's no guarantee they are wired right even if they are the ones with one wider prong slot. If they are 3-prong, that's still no gurantee they are wired right. You would need one of the below to be sure. Just trying to save a lot of troubleshooting of devices when it could be your house wiring.

HT1414 restoring my iphone 3gs is not completeing and the phone is not working

restoring my iphone 3gs is not completing and my phone is not working i took it to my local phone shop they told me that the new itunes will not fit onto the iphone 3gs, how can i get my phone to work.

If your restore is failing, there could be MANY issues... You may need to restore the phone back to "new phone" during the restore... PAY ATTENTION HERE... You will lose ALL contacts, photos, videos, voice memos, etc... But you will be able to re-add your apps< and music through itunes. that is very last resort though. if that doesnt work, I would look into updateing your phone. Personally I wouldn't get the 5, just because I dont need the additonal size screen... I have the 4S and LOVE it!! but, do some research, and see what you can find on the matter. But it sounds like your headed down hill fast with that phone... May be best just to upgrade and save yourself the frustration...

Xperia Z3v Head Phone Jack Cover

Just curious if any one of you had dipped your Xperia Z3v in water....On sonymobile.com it says that make sure all the ports are closed, but the phone did not come with a head phone jack cover. Does that mean it is already waterproof? I examined all the photos avaiable on sonymobile.com and none of the pictures showing the phone under water had the head phone jack covered. Any feed back (from Sony) would be appreciated! Thanks for reading

the 3.5mm jack its waterproof, it doesn't need a cover/flap

Why was the head phone jack moved to the bottom of the iPhone 5

Why was the head phone jack moved to the bottom of the iPhone 5

Because it worked better with the new design, most likely. To get the real answer you'd have to ask the people that designed it.

I can hear sound though my head phones but not though the speakers on my iPad how do I fix it

I can hear sound though my head phones but not though the speakers on my iPad how do I fix it

Or ... If you can hear music in the Music app without the headphones, you may have system sounds muted.
If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Zen touch head phone jack prob

I've had my zen for just under a year now and i've recently i've started using it more frequently and realised that there is a problem with the head phone jack thats on the mp3 player.
I bought zen touch from Hong Kong(because i was on holiday there), however i li've in England and i am not sure whether i can get a replacement player or not.
Can anybody help me?
If i can get a replacement player, is there a shop that i can visit in person? because i find it insecure to send things to shops by royal mail. If there is can somebody give me the address of the nearest one to me? I li've in Nottingham.
Thanks for help in advance.

Thank you for the information, can I please have the photos so I dont destroy it entirely !. Take care,?Simon?(Dublin, Ireland)
