I can't hear any music with earbuds.

First time buyer of IPOD.  Not very technical.  I can't hear the music on the IPOD.  It looks like it's playing - confused.

Hi Melinda240,
The article below may be able to help you with this issue.
The troubleshooting steps would be the same for 6th generation or 4th generation iPod.

Check the volume setting.
Try adjusting the volume by pressing the volume buttons.
Try another song or audio file.
Try another headset.
Reset iPod by holding down the Sleep/Wake button and Volume Down buttons until you see the Apple logo appear.
Cheers,

  • What happen to my ipad? I can't hear any music without headphone

    What happen to my ipad? I can't hear any music without headphone even volume button also not working if headphone is not join with ipad.

    Hey there Glissen11,
    It sounds like you are not getting audio when you connect your headphones to your iPod Classic. I would use the troubleshooting steps in the following article named:
    iPod classic Troubleshooting Assistant
    https://www.apple.com/support/ipod/five_rs/classic/
    Step one is to reset your iPod, and here it is to get you started. There are additional troubleshooting steps if needed in the article as well:
    To reset your iPod:
    1. Toggle the Hold switch on and off. (Slide it to Hold, then turn it off again.)
    2. Press and hold the Menu and Center (Select) buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears, about 6 to 10 seconds. You may need to repeat this step.
    Tip:
    If you are having difficulty resetting your iPod, set it on a flat surface. Make sure the finger pressing the Select button is not touching any part of the click wheel. Also make sure that you are pressing the Menu button toward the outside of the click wheel, and not near the center.
    If the above steps did not work, try connecting iPod to a power adapter and plug the power adapter into an electrical outlet, or connect iPod to your computer. Make sure the computer is turned on and isn't set to go to sleep.

  • So i cant share any music with someone that is not near my house?

    My brother has a bunch of music that i want, but he is in some other part of the state>> so i can't share any music with him unless he is at my house?

    so i can't share any music with him unless he is at my house?'
    Correct.
    Sharing requires that devices and computers be within range of your Wi-Fi network. Home in this case.

  • The volume on my iPad 3 has gone. I've checked the mute button, tried restarting, resetting etc and nothing has changed. I can't hear the music, hear any sound from videos. Most times the video stops playing after a seconds. My iPad 3 is only 2 months ol.

    If you have lost all sound and video is freezing on you, that ain't good. Your iPad is two months old so I would not hesitate to contact Apple at all. You are entitled to 90 days of phone support.
    http://www.apple.com/support/ipad/contact/.
    If you want to try a couple of things on your own, try quitting all apps and then reboot the iPad - not so much for the sound issue itself - but more as a general "start all over again" sort of approach. It might help with the video freezes.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Reboot the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If you use headphones on occasion, you can try plugging and unplugging those as well and see if the sound comes back.
    You could even try restoring the iPad to factory settings and then restore from a backup, but unless there is something totally hosed on the iPad, that should not be necessary with a two month old device - of course assuming that you didn't drop the iPad or do something accidental that could be causing the problems.

    So i got my iphone 6 and the music works fine with the bluetooth on my lexus until i plug it in to the USB charger.  Then you can't hear the music.  When i have it unplugged the music plays fine through the speakers.
    When i get in the car, if the audio is set on bluetooth the music will start playing automatically without me doing anything even if i don't have the music (itunes) running.

  • I can see the music toolbar moving, but cannot hear any music.

    I can see the music toolbar moving, but cannot hear any music. My phone rings and clicks, so I know some sound works.  Ever since I synced my
    phone on my computer, I cannot hear my music or any videos.

    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings

  • I cannot hear ANY music on my iPhone

    I cannot hear ANY music on my iPhone. I can make and receive phone calls even in speakerphone mode, but I cannot hear any of tracks that synced from iTunes, not even with the headphones. Is anybody having the same problem? Does anybody have any idea on how to fix it ? I do not want to reset the phone for fear of having to reactivate it. Is Apple aware of this critical problem ?

  • ILife '11 can not hear the music that is added

    With the iLife'11 I add music from iTunes, I see the green bar but can not hear the music. Worked for years with iMovie and never had this problem. Please help us. This is a major problem..!!

    Wwell, maybe it is just me. I have been using and have bought 7 Apple devices just over the past 3-5 years. Having supported, programmed, configured and taught college level courses for MS based and super computer hardware and software configurations for almost 20 years I am apparently ignorant of differential operations. Previously I had 5 choices on any hardware or software when playing anything like music, video, DVDs or anything similar. I had 'Play' 'Fast Forward' 'Fast Rewind' 'Pause'  a n d  'STOP'. Perhaps Apple has found the STOP unnecessary but I thoro enjoyed knowing whatever I was playing had STOPped and could not continue unless I chose to go back to the program or equipment and chose any of the 5 choices except STOP again since I could not STOP a STOP. As I said perhaps I need to reconsider my choices and obvious ignorance. Thanks for all the help.

  • I can't hear any sound from the web

    I can't hear any sound from any flash website, or music players on myspace, and youtube.com etc... I think its a flash problem. It worked a few days ago. Is it a problem with my browser? With Flash? A virus?
    I tried the web browser's preferences and system preferences. I got the latest version of flash player. Is there anything else?

    That's great kar3b3ar.
