Headphones wont work on a PC

I have been trying to use my iPhone 4 headphones at school to listen to music and my headphones dont seem to work with any of the PCs. I get a sound coming out that sounds like the headphones are blown but they work just fine on my phone. Anyone have this problem and know a solution? I would rather not buy new headphones just for the PC.

The headphones can be used with any normal stereo headphones jack. Are you sure you're putting them in properly?

My headphones wont work.

I've only had my macbook pro for 3 months and now the headphones wont work. I was wondering, is there a way to fix it on my own? If I were to go to Apple, would they fix it free of charge or do I pay? How much would I pay?
By the way, I have the 3 year warranty, but the man who sold me my mac said that the rules will change in january 2011, so I'm not sure if everything is free of charge.

If you bought your MBP new three months ago, it's still under its standaard one-year warranty, and any defect in it will be repaired free of charge. Your AppleCare plan extends the warranty for two more years, for a total coverage period of three years from the date of purchase. The fellow who told you that was going to change was misinformed, or else you misunderstood what he was telling you.

My plug-in for headphones wont work

okay, the thingy that you plug your head phones in mine wont work.
the last couple of months its be like skipping, its like its scratched inside.
whenever i moved the jack a certain way it wouldnt work, and sometimes when it did only one ear would work.
now lately it barely works at all
usually i can manage a way to place it for it to work but not anymore, its stripped down is what i think.
and the thing is i cant use the speaker cause i got the old headphones.
my warranty is used up cause i got this ipod last christmas.
what am i supposed to do? :S
i tried other headphones and none will work

Bite the bullet and pay for the iPod Touch to be repaired by Apple. It's cheaper than a brand new one, and at least then it will be fixed.
The problem is probably some heavy scratching or bent metal inside the mini port (the headphones port). Unfortunately, there's no "EASY" way to fix this, and chances are, Apple will just send you a refurb back anyway.

Iphone headphones wont work, damaged hardware?

I don't really know if this is the correct place to post this but well..
I've been using the standard Iphone 5 headphones for a while now until recently they stopped working as they should, won't play/pause using the button thingy on them. So I tested them on my friends Iphone 4 and they worked as they should. So just wondering if I've damaged the hardware in the phone somehow or changed any settings by mistake

Hi Padawaan,
If the headphones are working on a different iPhone, then I would suggest trying some of the troubleshooting steps below for your iPhone 5:
iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
I hope this information helps ....
Have a great day!

My headphones wont work in the ipad audio minijack

my headphone minijack won't work. I've checked that the headphones I use work in everything else.

The iPad has a standard 3.5 mm jack. Any pair of headphones with a 3.5 mm connector should work.
Have you plugged them in all the way?

Hi lekgotproblem,
Welcome to the HP Support Forums, I hope you enjoy your experience! To help you get the most out of the HP Forums I would like to direct your attention to the HP Forums Guide First Time Here? Learn How to Post and More.
I see that you have some issue with sounds playing from the speakers even with headphones connected. Try this link to a third-party site, it will show you how to set the default audio device. Set the headphones as the default and the sound will go through headphones and when you remove it will go back to the speakers. The link is for Windows 7 since I you didn't mention what OS you are using. If you are using Windows 8 just search for Control Panel on your tile screen and then to go Sound and the rest of the steps will be the same.

Side of my headphones wont work

I know its not the headphones because I have used several different pairs. Anything I can do?

If a reset/restore doesn't fix it then make an appointment at your nearest Apple store ( Assuming your Touch is still under warranty. ).
If the Genius folks can't fix it they'll replace it.

Ipod video right headphone not working

i think the prong in my ipod video is out of place, if i hold the jack down and on an angle, it works in both ears but if it moves out of its place, the right headphone wont work. is there a way to fix it by myself? can i move the prong back into place? or do i need to send it in for repairs and if i do will they wipe my hard drive?

wow. i just came across the same problem just a couple of days ago. My ipod was working fine in the morning and when I got off of work I got no sound out of the right earphone. I bought new headphones cause this has happened before and it was the headphones, but like you said, when pressure was applied to the jack it was only then that I got sound out of both earphones. Ive had my ipod for almost two years now and it is still in really good condition and I dont really know what could have brought this on. Is this a pretty common thing to happen? I had a 3rd generation before this one and had to send it back after a year or so because the battery died, but I did not have this problem with that one and was actually a lot rougher on it. Sorry for the long post. Thanks for the input.

I recently repaired disk permissions on my mac HD and now my on-board speakers wont work, the icon is greyed out and only works when my headphones are plugged in.

Try to put your headphones several times in and out from your connection, might be the switch is stuck. Normally it should work again while trying to plug the headphones in and out!

Docking stations works, but headphones wont!

My Ipod will work fine well in the docking station, but won't even turn on while I'm using it with the headphones. It seems to freeze up. Any ideas?

Thanks, djjackj, I'm starting to believe that, too! (Though it would be so much easier if it was just a software glitch!)
I've been searching old posts about this problem. It started cropping up back in 2006. At least 66 people have posted about this same phenomenon.
Two posts mentioned possible DIY fixes. Here's their advice (but I haven't tried this myself yet):
"Hello everybody,
I have found a solution for my problem, I hope it can help you guys too. I found this following link to get my ipod open:
http://www.answerbag.com/q_view.php/30180
When I opened it I discovered that the connection to the little print (?) where you plug in your headphones was loose (it is a piece with both the headphone plug and the hold function). So I simply reconnected it, and voila, my ipod was fixed! Good luck!"
"I had the same problem and fixed it by following the procedures to opening the mini to replace the battery. Then you will see the CB that the headphones plugs into. This CB (circuit board) plugs into the main ( mother board )
Mine had worked it's way partly out. I pushed this plug back on securely and the headphones now work. Hope this helps. You can find the instructions for changing the battery by googling changing the battery on a mini IPOD."
Someone from Germany already tried this . . . and it worked!
But opening an iPod is scary stuff . . .

I accdently formated my shuffle and now it wont work what do i do?

I accdently formated my shuffle and now it wont work what do i do?
That and when I plug the shuffle in to the comp iTunes doesn't reconize that the shuffle is pluged in.
it has updated a-few times. and when iTunes sees that the shuffle is in the comp it tells me that the songs are on the shuffle.............but when i unplug it and put my headphones in no music comes out of it!
so what am i to do
shuffle 512MB Windows XP

I'm having the same problem! My good-for-nothing brother has formatted iPod shuffle through "My Computer" and now it won't work. Neither iTunes nor iPod software updater recognise the thing. To be honest, neither application even start when the shuffle is plugged in! And now I've just read that apple says you "SHOULD NOT FORMAT" shuffle. What am I to do? Have I lost my iPod for ever?

Very likely it is a hardware issue (exactly same as mine). I am afraid to say that you need to send it for repairing. You will get a replacement if your iPod mini still under the warranty
