Headphones are plugged into mini iPad but sound still coming from speakers

When I was given this as a gift for Christmas, headphones worked great. Now it doesn't matter if headphones are plugged in or not the sound still comes out of the speakers. I made sure the headphones were in correctly and I've even plugged in different headphones. Is anyone having this problem?
Do I need to take it back?

I'm pretty sure they wouldn't be on here saying they tried many different headphones and not getting it fixed if they didn't push it in all the way. Have you tried resetting your iPad and trying again? To reset it, press and hold the Home and Sleep/Wake button till you see the Apple on the screen and the iPad will reset. After doing that, try again.

TS3308 why i can't connect the headphone to my iPad mini retina, to sound still coming out from the ipad

I tried to restore already but still I can't connect the headphone to my ipad mini, but in the other device the headphone is working properly...

is the connector inserted as far as possible?
Is there anything blocking it from being inserted far enough?

No sound is coming from speakers

there is sound when I plug in headphones. this problem started after I updated to ios 6.1.6.
I tried cleaning the headphone jack and reseting the phone.

that's a good thing then that it only show s headphone when the headset is plugged in. then follow these steps reset all settings, settings, general, reset option at the bottom of general, reset all settings, And no you will not lose your information, if issue persist backup and restore your device as new and if that doesn't work, time for a replacement. If you are uncomfortable following these steps you might want to contact Apple 1-800-MY-APPl or setup appointment at the Apple store but do a backup before you head out to the store because they more then likely to restore your device which will Erase all your contents and settings.

Loud static in headphones when plugged into laptop

Whenever my headphones are plugged into my laptop, there is a loud static/white noise. It's there all the time, but the sound is fine if on speakers. This problem just started

Restore it from your backup.
No idea what she has running on her laptop, but the iPhone appears just like any other camera. Sounds like something on her machine decided to go ahead and import the photos. They may actually be on her laptop.

Speakers only play when headphones are plugged in.

My internal speakers only play when the headphones are plugged in. (System preferences-Sound tells me I'm using Internal Speakers, audio port for sound input). When I remove the headphones, the red light in the jack goes on and the computer says I'm using Digital Out ("The selected device has no output controls.)
I have read many community responses, most saying that the switch inside the headphone jack hasn't engaged, that I should fiddle with it using a paperclip/bobbypin/toothpick or just plug-in and unplug headphones repeatedly. I have repeatedly both of these to no avail. When fiddling, I don't really know which bump inside there is the switch, I've played with them all.
No, it's not dirty, I've blowin air, vaccuumed, dusted. Same problem.
I do use my speakers often for work and pleasure, go between different external speakers and a projector.
It seems that the computer has things backwards- headphones unplugged is pluged and vice versa.
Any suggestions or clear guidance as to what I should be fiddling with when I stick a bobby pin in there? No need to refer me to old posts, I've read them.
Thanks in advance,
TheKip

If your phone is still under warranty, Apple will service your phone for free.
Did you check the headphone port for any kind of debris or lint?
Did you already try another set of headphones? Are you suing the headphones that came with the phone?
Is the headphone jack plugged in fully into the headphone port?

Music playing in speakers while my headphones are plugged

I tried 2 different headphones and since yesterday, when it is plugged, i can still hear music or sounds coming from the speakers and i do not hear anything in my headphones...pretty annoying, any idea?

Make sure your headphones are plugged all the way in meaning no silver from the headphone's plug can still be seen.
Otherwise try a hard reset of the device to see if that helps.

I have lost sound on my iPad in apps unless I use headphones ,does anyone know how to get sound back without them .I have used the mute volume on the bar at bottom of screen and the slider volume control there only shows when headphones are plugged in !

I also tried resetting settings all to no avail ...I looked up some advice and watched utube video advice on how to fix without success..
The volume control button on side does not work ,I got the iPad last August and wonder if it is a fault that means I must return it for replacement from where it was purchased ?

The Retrospect you used way back when is no longer around. The company was sold and that company produced a new version of Retrospect - Retrospect 8.x
So, as you've been told, you would have to be running a Tiger system with an old version of Retrospect software (5.x or 6.x - you would need to know) assuming you can find the software.
As best I can remember you cannot extract files from a Retrospect backup except using the software since Retrospect did not normally make a file by file backup rather it created an archive of the files in the backup. I'm assuming that the EMC/Retrospect people have told you that old Retrospect backups are not accessible by Retrospect 8.x?

My phone thinks the headphones are plugged in and I can't get any sounds. How to fix?

My iphone 5 thinks that the headphones are plugged in and they are not. I used them earlier today but they are no longer plugged in to the phone. I can't get any sound (text alerts, ringing, etc) on the phone outside headphones. Any ideas on how to fix?

I have resolved my own problem thanks to reviewing other discussions. The solution that worked for me and that was suggested by an Apple store associate some time ago was to plug and unplug my headphone jack into the iPad four times. On the fourth time leave the headphone jack connected and rotate the plug clockwise, then remove and try your sound. When you use the external volume control the HEADPHONE label should be gone. It appears I have to do this now every time after I've used my headphone jack.

My iPod 5 says that headphones are plugged in but they're not. Help?

So today I was just using my iPod 5 to play music and then it suddenly wouldn't play anything. Even when it was on full volume there were no sounds. I tried to find out what was going on and I found out that it says that the headphones are plugged in, when I pressed the volume buttons. If I plugged in actual headphones it would play music/sounds but if I plugged the actual headphones out it wouldn't play. Please help me!

- 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 iPod. 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 iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

My ipod 5th gen won't change volume when headphones are plugged in, but when they are not I can change the volume on the speaker. How do I fix this?

Try a hard reset of the Nano. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
I assume you have double checked to make sure you are plugging the headset all the way in meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?

The Mac running Snow Leopard should be able to configure virtually any version of the AirPort Express.

IMac: How to use internal built-in microphone when Bose mic-headphones are plugged?

Hi there,
I use my Bose AE2 for Lync conferences in my iMac, but the problem is that, when the headphones are plugged I seem "obliged" to use their made for iPhone/Mac mic.
The problem is that, however, the sound through this Bose's mic is terrible so the others in the conference can't properly hear me. So I just want to use the internal computer's mic, and it seems not possible when the headphones are plugged.
In that situation, Sys Preferences > Sound > Input, only shows "External microphone" and "Line in".
Meaning, what normally is "Internal microphone" automatically, when plugged, turns into "External microphone" and that's it. It's not possible to use the internal mic anymore if mic headphones are plugged.
Do you know any way to workaround this?
My OS is 10.6.8 (it's work's iMac), but I'm afraid this is not different in 10.9.X.
Many thanks in advance!

Hi, I plug in the headphones set with a regular headphones jack plug. They don't go with USB.
Thanks for answering
