HT1689 My IPhone stopped playing any audio except the ringtone. Any ideas?

My IPhone stopped playing audio such as my music or applications with audio. The only sound it makes is the ringtone. I read some blogs where people said to plug in headphones and then unplug them. I tried that and actually had audio a couple of times but then it was gone again. Any ideas?

You could have dust, or a partical in the headphone port that is causing your phone to think there are headphones plugged in. Look into the port and gently blow it out if there is anything in it.

Ran into the same thing here. Turns out you shouldn't be trying to watch them from iTunes - instead open the "videos" app and all of your purchses should all be there and play in full.

I have a HP Pavilion dv6 that has suddenly stopped playing any kind of audio. How do I fix this?

I have a HP Pavilion dv6 that suddenly stopped playing any kind of sound. That's with earphones plugged in or not. The microphone indicator in sound setup indicates that it is listening to external sound, and when I play system sounds, the speaker icon in the volume mixer indicates that the hardware thinks it is playing sounds, but nothing is coming out of the laptop at all. I thought if it were a speaker not working internally I could fix it with earphones or external speaker but that isn't working either.
Any ideas?

Hi,
Try the following.
Open windows Control Panel, open Windows Update, select 'View update history' in the left hand pane and then select 'Installed updates' link in the following window.
Locate update KB2962407, right click it and select Uninstall. When done, restart the notebook, open windows Control Panel, open Windows Update and select 'Check for updates'. You'll see the update you just uninstalled being offered again - right click and select 'Hide Update'.
After this you may or may not need to delete and reload the Audio driver - if you do, the procedure for using recovery manager to reinstall Software and Drivers is detailed in the relevant document on the link below.
Recovery Manager - Windows 8.
Recovery Manager - Windows 7

My iPhone 4S has decide to stop playing any of my music. All my songs are there, but when I click to play, it just scrolls through a bunch of songs and then reverts back to the play list. Anyone have any suggestions as to how to correct this? Thanks.

I am having the same issue. And today, I noticed that when I was talking on the phone, the volume went down low. I had to reboot the phone, so that the volume was up again. Mostly, though, it's my music that I am having issues with.
Same issue as listed above. iPhone 4S. IOS6.

My iPhone 5s has stopped playing music out of the speakers. It works when I plug in my headphones but other than that there's no sound. It just randomly happened so I'm not sure if I can fix it or if I need to bring my phone in

Download a free app and try again, you can delete the free app afterward.

Apple TV suddenly stopped playing any video

Yesterady my apple tv stopped playing any type of video. This includes movies I've purchased on iTunes, previews on iTunes, Hulu, Netflix. I click play on the video the spinner pops up and the video *almost* starts and then just cancels itself going back to the previous screen. I've tried:
1. Restarting ATV
2. Resetting ATV
3. Testing network connection on ATV -> all is ok
4. Restarting my router & ATV
I'm able to go on the internet with other devices so I know I have internet connection. I'm also able to sign into the Apple Network with my ATV so I believe it has internet connection as well.

So we have this ATT provider in common.
Based upon this other discussion -- https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5565870?start=0&tstart=0 -- I ran the Netflix video called 'Example Short 23.976' -- though I had to wait about 15 minutes for it to start playing, it eventually did. I have the U-Verse service of 12 MBPS, and speedtest.net confirms that is what I am indeed getting. But the results showing in Example Short 23.976 should be (and used to be) 5800 kbps; tonight it is 230 kbps, then 500, then 1000, then 2000, then freeze, buffer for a minute, then back down to 230 kbps.
I suggest you run the Netflix video called 'Example Short 23.976' both during prime time hours and at other times during the day, and report back to us with your results. I have a suspicion this is an ATT problem.

I am unable to play Pandora through my USB connection (via Lightening cable) in my 2011 Honda Accord with my iPhone 5. Any idea if a fix will be available?

IPhone stops playing songs in middle then goes to next... why??

I noticed after the last update that my iPhone just stops playing certain songs in the middle of them and goes to the next one. I don't know what the problem is. It seems that cds that I have ripped and put on my phone work great all the time, but the ones that I download from iTunes and put on my phone don't work. I haven't had this problem until just recently and it's starting to get very annoying. Is there anything that I can do about it.... is this a common problem?

I actually have a song that plays back perfectly in iTunes. It also plays back fine when selecting the song on the iPhone through iTunes. However, when disconnecting the iPhone and playing it back just through the iPhone the song will distort after 16-17 seconds and skip to the next song. This doesn't happen however if I manullay skip the first 17 seconds of the song. It's a strange circumstance. I just decided to delete the song all together from my iPhone.

IPhone stops playing Protected AAC songs

My iPhone stops playing songs in the middle. All the songs that stop are Protected AAC songs-old purchases. It happened on a 3G, and now on a new 4GS. They play fine on my computer. Sometimes it skips to the next song automatically, sometimes you can skip manually, occasionally it loses its way entirely. It's been happening for the last few months, but not too often in my library. It is perfectly repeatable for each song, down to the second it stops, but the timing varies by the song.

IPhone stops playing music

My iPhone stops playing music. It only happens and happens conistently on certain files, old Protected AAC files I bought from iTunes. It seems to happen mostly (or always) at the same time, one minute eight seconds in. I notice it most on Creedence Clearwater Revival Chronicle, but also on other music from the same era of my downloads. Sometimes you can just skip to the next song, sometimes it has lost its way worse. It happens on both my new iPhone 4S as well as my old 3GS.

They play fine on the computer, just not on the iPhone.
