Headphones show on won't switch to speakers?

Speakers stopped working, volume control shows headphones are on. Checked switch settings, checked sound controls under "settings". Tried reset several times. I understand this is not an exclusive problem. Please don't tell me to do a full reset. I can buy Windows if I want to reboot all the time. Thanks!

Thanks for the reply. Yes, that was actually my first thought. I blew into it and plugged jack in and out several
times.
The volume controls at the bottom when you double tap the home button seem to function correctly as well.
When I did search I found this problem is NOT exclusive to my Ipad. I'm thinking a conflict in this last upgrade as I only upgraded the last version a week or so ago.

X-fi for notebook won't switch between speakers and headphones

I have a Dell Studio 537 with the x-fi for notebook card. When inserted, I can hear songs through the headphones and the console correctly says 'headphones'. When I remove the headphone jack, the console switches to 'speakers' but I can't hear anything from the speakers. I can plug in headphones, it still says 'speakers' but I can hear the music.
The reverse is true. I can start out with music playing on the speakers and never be able to convert it to headphones without removing the card, closing everything, reinserting. It's a pain.
Is there anything I can do to fix this so I can leave the card in most of the time?
Thanks in advance?

Plug your speakers into the soundcard as usual.
use the front mounted headphone socket on the fromt of the X-Fi I/O unit to connect your headset and set the control panel to automatically mute your speakers when the headset is connected. Your speakers will mute when the headset is plugged in and all you have to do is plug or unplug the headset at the front to switch modes!...Now please do not ask about doing the same with your mike connector!! see other thread by me!! p.s creative do ship a /4" to 3.5mmm adapter with the card.
Hope I have understood your post

My classic video ipod won't switch back to regular video mode after using it on an elliptical. The port still allows me to charge and works on the elliptical and treadmill but it will no longer change modes to allow me to watch my shows on the ipod screen

From the iPod's Main Menu choose Videos -> Settings and make sure TV Out is set to Off.
Otherwise, try a hard reset as well. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

Sounds like your iPod is in restore mode. Connect it to iTunes. iTunes will pop a little message up saying that your iPod is in restore mode and asking you if you want to restore it, click yes. Your iPod will restore to factory settings and you will be given the chance to restore from a backup. You can do this or set it up as a new iPod.
Here is Apple's page on restoring your iPod.

IMessage won't switch to "on."

My iMessage won't switch to "on." When I press the button to switch it on, it immediately switches back to "off." I am connected to WiFi but do not currently have the SIM card in because I am in another country. I am using the iPhone like an iPod Touch. I have an iPhone 3GS. How do I fix this problem? I've restarted it, restored it, everything...

I got my iMessage to switch on, by completely resotring it on Itunes. I tried everything but I can;t get iMessage to work. Like its activated but the msgs just wont deliver. I'm currently overseas now, in UAE. The thing is, when I go to iMessage and click on my Apple ID it shows the iMessage Account. And then I went to change location, it shows you a list of countries. I cant find UAE!! So I think the country as a whole blocked it. Like they once blocked BBM for blackberry (They finally allowed it) but I think its the same with iMessage. Absolutely ridiculous.

Sony Bridge for Mac wanted an update, and phone won't switch on now!

Hello
Today I was trying to transfer some files from my phone to my Mac. When I connected my phone the Sony Bridge for Mac has asked me if I would like to update so I clicked yes and it began updating, with my phone connected. Then out of sudden, my phone switched off and it won't switch back on. It will only vibrate and show the Sony logo but won't go any futher. I tried the combination of vol+ and on/off button and many others, but nothing works!! I need my phone very urgently at work, and I really don't want to loose any files!!!
Please help!
Solved!

It sounds more like you had a system firmware update and you may have disconnected your phone as this process was happening - All you can do I'm afraid to say is a system repair but this will erase all data on your phone

Wifi symbol missing plus phone won't switch off

My wifi symbol is missing from my screen, settings say I am connected, checked this by turning cellular data off and I can still access Internet so I must be connected.
Thought by switching off and turning on again might fix the issue but my phone won't switch off.
Can anyone offer any assistance? I'm a bit of a technophobe so need things in laymans terms please.
My iPad and another iPhone are showing as connected to the same wifi network.
I have an iPhone 5.

RESET DEVICE
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).

HD movie and tv show files won't play in iTunes 10.6.3.

Just did a fresh install of Mountain Lion and for some reason now HD movie and tv show files won't play. I get a black screen.
Standard Def tv shows and movies are still playing fine though.
Oh and yes I already tried switching it to 32-bit mode via the "Get Info" screen. Same problem results.
Any suggestions?

I think I have the same problem. Every time I play some HD movies in iTunes the movie seems to be stuck and the screen black. If I scrub the movie forward I can see the picture, even captions, but I can't play them. I said some because there are certain movies that DO play. I mean HD ones, SD video plays fine. But I couldn't find any clue. It's not a matter of file size, neither a matter of resolution, compressio... I'll wait for an update (system and/or iTunes) and if nothing happens I think I'll dig a little more. This is no big issue for me since they ALL seem to play perfectly when I select AirPlay to my Apple TV.
I'll try checking tags

My blackberry Curve 9380 won't switch on

Hi, my blackberry curve 9380 won't switch on and i have had it on charge since last night. The red light or green light isnt on and it doesnt want to switch on even after i take the battery, sim and SD card out? It is just under a year old. Can anyone help because i need my phone to be on urgently!!!!

Hi and Welcome to the Community!
Please try this sequence...note that, throughout the entire 4h15m process, your BB must remain connected to a known-good wall charger (not PC USB):
With the battery inside, connect your BB to the wall charger
Leave it alone for 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
Remove the battery
Wait 15 minutes
Insert the battery
Wait another 2 hours, no matter what the LED or the display does
This has been known to "kick start" some BBs.
It is also possible that your battery or BB has experienced a problem...to test, this sequence is needed:
Obtain a known good and already fully charged additional battery...use it in your BB and see what happens
Obtain access to a known good and identical BB...use your battery in it and see what happens
The results of this will indicate if it's your BB or your battery that has the problem.
Good luck and let us know!

My ipod mini won't switch on and i cant live without it !

My ipod mini won't switch on. I had been having problems for a few weeks before, transferring song lists to my ipod from the pc, showing the message "attempting to copy to the disk failed. An unknown error occured (-36)". I don't know if this had anything to do with my current problem. After un-installing and re-installing the latest version of installer, I went to switch my ipod on a few days ago and all that it showed on the screen was about half of the battery charging icon that usually fills the screen. I switched the ipod off again but when I tried to switch it back on, nothing happened. please help !

Tried these?

My mini ipod won't switch on or charge

My mini ipod won't switch on or charge. I have tried charging it several ways - via the pc, plug and incar charger but no luck. The pc does not recognise the ipod. I have tried toggling the hold switch. The usb ports on the pc are ok.
The last thing that I did with the ipod was detached from the pc when it had the message to do not disconnect.
Can anyone help
thanks

IPhone won't switch on - will Apple replace it?

My iPhone 3G won't switch on. I left it in its dock next to my bed on Tuesday night and woke up late Wednesday morning because the alarm hadn't gone off. My iPhone was dead. Not even the 'connect me to a power source' screen.
Tried holding the home button and lock button together, tried connecting to iTunes, tried DFU mode. Nothing - it's totally dead.
I went to the Genius Bar on Tuesday but their appointments were fully booked until Friday. The lady looked down the headphone jack and told me to come back Friday. I googled what she was up to and looked in there myself with a torch - no pink so it's not water damaged.
My question really is will they replace it? I got my 3G on launch day as an upgrade from the original, but that had to be replaced because the screen died. They swapped it in store no problem. I can't remember but I think it was less than 12 months ago.
Is the phone only covered by warranty for 12 months; and if so; since I have a replacement, does the warranty re-start from the day I got the replacement?
I have insurance so could always claim on that - but any advice would be appreciated. I will let you know how I get on tomorrow.

Thanks for your rapid responses.
As I said, I have insurance and it'll only cost me the £25 excess for a new phone, but I am a bit annoyed since this is the second iPhone I've had with a fault. I absolutely love my iPhone and I've looked after all 3 of them well; I'm as sure as I can be that this isn't my fault. It doesn't seem fair that the warranty doesn't re-start for this replacement phone, so this is what I'll be saying to Apple tomorrow. Regardless of the warranty, there's also the Sale of Goods Act which states that if a fault occurs after 6 months and within 6 years of purchase, the onus is on me to prove that the product was faulty when I purchased it and if it was, the manufacturer must replace it.
It's really a matter of principle for me as £25 on the insurance isn't a lot of money, but since I've recently bought a MBP and own numerous Apple products I'm up for a bit of an argument in store, so we'll see what they say.
Thanks again for your help.

I've been texting my friend with iMessage with wifi on and all of a sudden it changed to text message and won't let me send messages. My wifi is still on and working but it won't switch back to iMessage. Please help

What I recommend you try doing first is to turn iMessage off then back on. If that doesn't work, make sure that your Apple ID and password are correct. If everything seems correct and you still can't send out messages using iMessage instead of text message, I think you should either try calling AppleCare at 1-800-MY-IPHONE (1-800-694-7466) and/or scheduling an appointment at the Genius Bar at an Apple Store (that is, if there's one close to you).
Hope this helps!

My safari won't switch off - what can i do?

i opened a page which should have allowed me to download a mock TOCFL exam (that's the standardized chinese exam in taiwan), but instead i just got a page of gibberish and since then skype won't let me close it, also while closing tabs there's no longer an x to click, instead i have to right click and then close it that way. anyone know what's going on here? also since safari won't switch off, i have no way of trying to deinstall and then reinstall it...any suggestions?

Select  ▹ Force Quit... from the menu bar, then select Safari and press return. Do the same with Skype.
Run Software Update and install all available updates.
Reinstalling system components is rarely the solution to any problem, and certainly not to this one.
