Headphone controller won't work with iOS 7?

I updated my phone to iOS 7 and I try to play music through my apple headphones and it will not work. I also cannot play or fast forward songs through the lock screen or the control center, I have to physically open the music app, which is an enormous disadvantage when you are working out... I was wondering if there was a fix for this or if it is just a bug... Or if it's just me getting this issue. I checked on my iPod and it's not the headphones. Please help if you are having this issue or if you know a fix for it!! Thanks

Same issue
The headphone remote/control works on a another iphone but not on mine.
Music does work , its only the controls on the headphones that don't work
Phone - Iphone 4
Tried restarting the phone, syncing the phone, resetting it  from withing the phone, holding the buttons & then through itunes .. No use...
Issue happens across any pair of headphones including Apple's
Same happens in music app and 3rd party apps like spotify , tunein radio .
Can't use the buttons on the headphones to pick or answer call's as well .
I drive 4 - 6 hours a day and can't change songs on the go. Looks like this update screwed my phone .
The iphone 4s in my family is still on ios 6 and I don't plan on updating it . Tha's been my general advise to everyone I see and talk with a iphone , as this looks like a update related issue.

  • New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3 says it needs 11.1 but I cannot load that on my macbook using OSX 10.5.8 any way around this?

    New ipod touch won't work with itunes 10.6.3, says it needs 11.1 or newer but I cannot load that onto my MacBook running on OSX 10.5.8 - is there anyway around this?

    No. If your MacBook has an Intel processor you can update to OSX 10.6.8 and then install the latest iTunes.
    A 5G iPod with iOS 7 requires that if you have a Mac you have OSX 10.6.8 or later.
    You can get 10.6.8 here:

  • PDF Portfolio does not work with iOS Reader 11.3.2 on iOS 7.1.2

    Well this is upsetting. I created a PDF form with several pages of the same form (it's a travel log).
    My hoping to use Adobe Reader to complete the form and save back as a week at a time won't work.
    I created the form using Acrobat Pro 9 from CS5.
    Does anyone know if a PDF form in a Portfolio should work with Adobe Reader on the iPad2/
    Also, what can I use that works with forms as a portfolio?

    Ken,
    please could you describe your workflow. It might help to find some solution. Also it would be great if you can share a sample of your document. Please email it to [email protected] with the reference to this discussion "PDF Portfolio does not work with iOS Reader 11.3.2 on iOS 7.1.2"
    thank you.

  • Sd photo import camera kit not working with iOS 8

    I bought an Apple brand sd card photo import camera kit for the iPhone 5 (lightning cable) a couple years ago. It no longer works with iOS 8.x. I now have an iPhone 6 Plus and it still does not work. I get the error "This accessory is not supported by this iPhone." Since it is Apple brand it should work.
    I have googled and searched the forums and found no leads on this. I was hoping with the latest 8.3 release it would be addressed. Does anyone know how to get this to work or is it an apple bug?

    One article that might be helpful is here (suggesting you need HUB if it's drawing too much power):
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4106
    @ rotorcraft:
    It has to have a DCIM folder, but the directory after the DCIM folder, and the files themselves, have to follow DCF rules (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Designrule_for_Camera_Filesystem)..if it's the structure created by the camera it should be fine but if you change the folder to something other than DSC_xxxx and you change the image filename to something other than ABCD1234.whatever then it won't show up.
    You can double check if the kit is being recognized at all in Settings -> About, then scroll to the bottom, it should say like Apple Card reader or something I forget. If it isn't, I would just reboot

  • FM transmitter won't work with my iPhone

    I bought a Premier FM transmitter from Auto Zone the other day. It has a 30-pin connector with an led panel that lights up when you connect it to an apple device. It's suppose to work with all 30-pin devices but doesn't work with my iPhone 4 (iOS 7.1.2). I have tried it with my iPod Touch 2g and two other iPhone 4's that belonged to my friends, and it worked with all three devices. Any explanation why it won't work with mine?

    "the Middle East" is a really big place. I suspect you bought a gray market hacked phone. Call Apple Care and give them the serial number. Maybe they can tell you if it's locked and to what carrier.

  • Importing cr2 raw files won't work on ios 6 when it worked fine on ios5. Anyone have a solution?

    I have  been importing cr2 raw files to my iPad using ios 5 but importing cr2 raw files won't work on ios 6. Sees files in camera but when import stops it fails with an exclamation mark in red circle. Anyone have a solution?

    Don't know if you care anymore or it applies, but I was able to get things working but it took drastic measures.
    I had to do a full system reset and update by doing the following:
    - Make note of all your settings in your system and apps especially accounts and forget about in app data that's only on your iPad and not in a cloud service because it will be gone after this
    - Connect iPad to Mac and startup iTunes
    - Hold down Home and Power buttons simultaneously for about 8 sec until the screen turns black
    - Release the Power button but continue holding the Home button until there's a popup on your screen which indicates it's in recovery mode
    - Follow the instructions to recover your iPad but recover it to factory state, not recover from a backup
    - Reinstall all your apps and content
    - Reconnect to all your services on your system and apps
    I could not restore from a backup since it brought back my bad data too.  It also didn't restore my music and no matter what I tried it wouldn't put my music onto my iPad.  Had to start clean.
    It appears over time that the system gets dirty and there's lots of bad data that can't get resolved.  This is especially true if some of your apps have crashed a bunch.

  • Headphone jack won't work right

    I have a 60GB video iPod and the headphone jack won't work right. I only get audio in the left ear unless I push the earphone plug to the side. I know this is common among listening devices and wondered if there is any easy way to correct this or if I should just take it to Apple to have them fix it. It's definitely not under warranty and wondered how much it would be to fix it...

    If you are at all handy you can replace the headphone and hold switch. It is not terribly difficult. Almost all sites that sell the parts have online videos that show you how to do it. I have replaced them as well as batteries and screens. I encourage anyone that has some mech skill and there Ipod is off Warranty to try it. If you have a great fear or are all thumbs then of course send it somewhere. One advantage of doing your own repairs is that while you have it open you might as well replace the battery with a longer life batt and also the screen with a brighter one for about the same cost as 3rd party doing the work on just the jack and hold switch. A lot of the sites send the case tools and jewelers screwdriver with the part. or at any hardware store, or where every tools are sold you can get a jewelers screwdriver. Good luck.

  • IPhone 4s bluetooth won't work with Clarion FZ709

    Actually the issue is that the iOS5 won't work with the Clarion FZ709 - it sees it and then immediately drops. I've reset the Clarion, reset the iPhone, same thing - it can discover it, then it loses it seconds later. Of course, dropping the version back to 4 isn't going to work for my iPhone, since it's new. I guess I could use my 3GS again, but I'm spoiled now with the features of the new phone.
    A brief search discovered this issue was mentioned here months ago - will there be any update to address this? It's apparently causing issues for many other manufacturers and OEM stereos too.

    Same problem with my Clarion FZ 709 after upgrading to iOS 5. Before this upgrade all works fine. Its no problem with the new iPhone 4s, its a problem with iOS 5. I could re-produce this problem with the new 4s and the older iPhone 4. Both are running iOS 5 and are still not longer able to connect via Bluetooth. After initial pairing the connection get broken after a few seconds. Yesterday i have upgraded both devices to 5.0.1 but the problem is still not fixed. From Clarion i got the feedback that they are not able to fix this issue because it seems that the problem depends on a change by Apple done within the new iOS. So hopefully Apple will recognize this problem and deliver a bug fix within the next iOS upgrade.

  • Mavericks won't work with my cannon printer/scanner Cannon MP560 what can I do to solve this?

    mavericks won't work with my cannon  Cannon MP560 printer/scanner what can I do to solve this?

    Try restarting the device first..
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, then swipe the slider to power off.
    Then press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.

  • VPN over a TC doesn't work with iOS 4 or iPad OS 3.2.2

    MacBook, iPhone (1G, 3GS) and iPad are working fine with wifi and a Time Capsule. But there is a problem with newer OS (iOS 4, iPhone OS 3.2) and VPN (Cisco IPSec).
    The VPN-connection is established (symbol in title-bar), but no systems within the firewall are reachable. IPhone 1G with iPhone OS 3.1.2 and VPN is working fine. The iPad also did, before upgrading to OS 3.2.
    All systems do work fine with VPN via a Lancom access point. Seems that new OS won't work with an Apple Time Capsule any more. Update to 3.2.2 and 4.0.2 didn't help.
    Are there any special security settings that have to be configured in a Time Capsule to connect via VPN/IPSec?
    Thanks for any suggestions.

    {quote:title=Tesserax wrote:}Time Capsules are VPN "pass through" devices{quote}
    That's the way I expected they have to work. But it seems they do not. The VPN-data seems to be blocked by my Time Capsule. Is this behavior a bug?
    As written above: All my devices are working fast with Wi-Fi over my Time Capsule and without any problems when used without VPN. VPN works fine with all my devices via a LANCOM L-305 access point. VPN with first generation iPhone and OS 3.1 is also working fine via Time Capsule. iPad also did before upgrading to 3.2.
    With the newest software versions iPhone and iPad cannot exchange data through a VPN-tunnel when connected to my Time Capsule. Looks like some new security features have been introduced.
    Is there any document available, where a complete list of all changes from 3.1 to 3.2 can be found?

  • IPhone 4 stop working with ios 6.1

    iPhone 4 stopped working with ios 6.1, visited apple first time, restored phone and worked, less than 24 hours later stopped working again, back to the store, I told iPhone is out of warranty and they'll replace for $150. iPhone worked fine with previous version, no problem at all. Asked to restore to the previous software version, told can't be done. Why should I pay for a damage caused by a software update. Tec claims that ios 6.1 will not work with my phone because it discovered some hardware malfunction, possible the home button. They can't repair. suggested to go to a third party. I'm a satisfied Apple product user for many years. What happened? Any welp out there?

    Hey.. I have had this issue since yesterday afternoon.. Some people are saying to keep restoring again and again until it finally goes through.. I have done so like 10 times on my MAC and then I used my husband's PC and tried it 4 times.. No success.. I called apple support, but no help came from there at the end, and the only thing they were able to suggest to me is to sell me a new phone just like mine for a discounted price.. **** NO
    Anyways after about 18h of search and stress I came across this link:

    That will only make it possibe to go backward.. You will end up back with the IOS 5, but at least you will have a working phone and it will bring back all your contacts and everything else that you ever had backed up on icloud and on your computer. There might be descripencies with the Applications but again this is an issue easily solved, you can always download them back.
    Two more things: One, you do not have to download the old version of the itunes, the newest version worked for me without any issues
    When choosing to download the older IOS 5.1.1, you will need to figure out whether your carrier is GSM or CDMA but you can easily google this info online..
    Well hope that will work for you like it did for me
