I can only hear my phone when it is on speaker.  The volume button says "headphone"  I couldn't find anything on settings.  Help!!

Has this ever happened to anyone?  I checked in settings, but couldn't find a way to readjust this.  Thx.

Try cleaning out your headphone jack with compressed air and/or a tissue/cotton swab.
Try plugging your headphones in/out about 20 times.

  • Any idea why I can only hear a caller when I'm using speaker phone?

    Does anyone know why I can only hear a caller when I am using speaker phone? 

    Hi goodferg,
    The troubleshooting steps below may help you with the sound issue you are having with your iPhone 4:
    iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
    Resolution
    Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
    Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
    While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
    Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
    For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
    If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
    Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (chooseSettings > General > Bluetooth).
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
    If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
    Hope this helps!

  • My speaker on my iPhone 4s stopped working. I can't hear my phone ringing, music, apps or use the speaker when having a call.  I can still make and take calls when I see them calling but can't hear the phone ring.

    This afternoon my speaker on my phone stopped working. I can not hear it ringing when someone call, but if I see someone calling and I answer the call they can hear me and I can hear them fine. I also can't not put the caller on speaker at all , I also can't hear my music or gaming apps. When I turn my phone on or off it does not make a sound as well. I have turned the phone off and turned it off by pressing the top button and home button at the same time and that did not work. I checked the volume and the mute button and the volume is up all the way. I don't know what else to do can you please help me?

    I have had this happen to me on 3GS, 4 and 4s.   Usually the solution is one of the following:
    1-  If  your volume indicator says  headphones even though they are not plugged in, then:
    Stick your headphones into the headphone jack and then remove quickly.
    2. If that does not work Power your phone off. Then when restarting Reset the phone by pressing the home button and the power button at the same time until the apple logo appears.
    3. Make sure you have not chosen to send audio to an Airplay device such as Apple Tv.
    Hope one of these works for you

    Hey oopsy daisy 113,
    I would check out the troubleshooting steps in the following article. While some don't seem like they directly apply to your situation, I'd pay special attention to steps 1, 8, 9, 10, and 11:

    What do you mean "out of warranty"? Warranty is for a year right? Or am I out of warranty because the phone cracked? I'm a noob...
    I'm still covered I think. I got the phone in December.

  • I have ringtones set for my iphone 4s but can only hear a ringer when somebody calls and nothing else

    I own a iphone 4s and have different ringers set for emails, text messages, etc....   However the only ringer that comes through is when i receive a phone call.  Can somebody help me?

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPhone shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

  • Just got a new iMac. I am using CS5.5, everything except InDesign is working. I can't open it. When I try to run the installer it says that "Adobe Suppor Advisor is no longer in use". I am then led to the online site for 'help', but I can't find anything

    I transferred everything over with an ethernet cable. All my apps are working... Photoshop... Illustrator... InDesign won't though.

    adobe products are especially prone to problems when 'migrated'.  they should be properly install using the installation files.
    at this point, uninstall your cs 5.5, clean and reinstall using the proper installation files, Use the CC Cleaner Tool to solve installation problems | CC, CS3-CS6
    if you need the installation files:

  • I have an iphone4 and i can only hear calls when i use speakerphone.  I'm trying a master reset but how do i back up my contacts from my address book??

    I have an iphone4 and I can only hear calls when I put them on speakerphone.  The people I'm on the phone with can hear me I just cant hear them.  I am about to try a master reset but how do i backup my contacts from my address book? Does itunes do that when i backed up the rest of the stuff on my phone?

    Back it up in iTunes! Just make a backup of the entire device but make sure you check sync contacts and the option to add contacts from phone to address book on computer.

  • Verizon iPhone 5, 64GB black - is anyone having issues with a very choppy conversation while talking on the phone.  Both my wife and I have the same phones and are both having the same issue.  We can only hear every other word.

    Verizon iPhone 5, 64GB black - is anyone having issues with a very choppy conversation while talking on the phone?  Both my wife and I have the same phones and are both having the same issue.  We can only hear every other word of the person we are talking to.  This happens at home, on the road and in the downtown area while calling both cellphones and landlines. It is intermittent, so we don't know exactly when it will reoccur.  Absolutely no problem with data.  The data speed is great.

  • I can only hear sound from one side of the head phone

    I've plug in my bass guitar through a cord and a converter in the line in port on my PC. Then checked 'listen to this device' (head phone) which is connected properly as it worked perfectly when I play any sound in ma PC. But when I play my guitar, I can
    only hear it from one side of the head phone. How to fix it!?

    Is that compatible to give output from both sides (R + L) ? Can you check same thing on other system ?

  • TS2755 I can't hear me text message come in if my home screen is locked.  I can only hear it if my phone is on any other screen

    HELP!!!!!
    I can't hear me text message come in if my home screen is locked.  I can only hear it if my phone is on any other screen..

    Hello Trisha0422
    Check to see if Do Not Disturbed is turned on as does not notify with an alert or sound when the screen is locked. Look for the Moon in the upper right hand corner by your battery icon.
