I spilled milk on it and now it's stuck in headphone mode? I already tried rice btw

Being as clumsy as I am, I accidentally poured milk all over my ipod. I left it in rice for about 12 hours, but music is stuck in headphones mode and the typing is really slow. Any ideas what I should do?

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack/other hardware problem. Likey a stuck/shorted headphone jack for the headphone stuck.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    Thanks anyway for your help.
    But allow me to extend to you a simple reflexion about the jailbreak (even if my iPhone wasn't... except if my little cousin jailbreaked without me noticing the advantages or disadvantages) : Would you refuse an alcoholic trying to go to rehab ? Would you really let someone trying to restore a cellular phone die without it, because he went on the bad side a couple of years ?
    Not a great analogy, but this is a user-to-user forum, and Apple will not allow discussion of jailbreaking; if someone tried to help with jailbreaking the message would be deleted. However, if you have a jailbroken phone Apple will generally not block a discussion of how to unjailbreak it. The only problem is that not all jailbroken phones can be restored successfully; it depends on the method of jailbreaking (which I can't discuss without THIS message being deleted).

    put the phone in DFU mode (do a search for how to do this) and restore to the latest firmware. you may have to download the firmware from apple and when selecting restore or update in itunes press the shift key and select the firmware.
    Hope this helps

  • Someone tried to jailbreak my iPod and now it is stuck in recovery mode. How do I fix it?

    I'm not sure what jail breaking is, however one of my friends insisted on jail breaking my iPod, 4th generation. Now it is stuck in recovery mode and everything has been wiped out. I had backed my iPod up to my computer before everything happened. Thanks for any help!

    I suggest that you find a new friend.  Based on the experiences of others, the jailbreaking may well be non-reversible.  Here are some things to try...
    Restore...
    Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."
    If the Restore doesn't work, let the battery drain completely.  Then recharge for at least an hour and Restore again.
    I really don't want to recommend the next step because it's a real PIA after the fact.  However...
    Restore as new with NO reload from backup!
    IF you choose to try it, here are some cautions.  Make absolutely certain that all purchased data, such as apps, music, movies, etc., are present in the iTunes library.  Also make absolutely certain that all non-purchased data, such as photos, pdf files, Word files, etc., are present and accessible somewhere on the computer's hard drive.  Be aware that you will lose all game data (scores, etc.).  Be forewarned that it is tedious recreating all your folders and putting each app where you want it.  Finally, be aware that all passwords will be wiped out and all settings will have returned to their default values.

  • HOW TO GET MY IPHONE 4S OUT OF BEING STUCK IN HEADPHONES MODE? I TRIED BLOWING IT, I TRIED SUCKING IT AND I TRIED THE QU TIP, ALSO FREEZING AND PLUGGING AND UNPLUGGING THE HEADPHONES. I ALSO RESTORED IT AND PUT IT IN DFU MODE AND STILL NOTHING.

    How do i get my iphone 4s out of being stuck in headphones mode. When i dont even have headphones plugged in, it says headphones ringer. I've tried blowing and sucking in the jack, didnt work. I tried using a blowdrier in the jack, didn't work. I also tried putting it in the freezer while in a plastic bag, trying to clean it with a qu tip, and plugging and unplugging the headphones more than 100 times, still nothing and i also restored, reset, and put my iphone in DFU mode, and still nothing seems to work. DOES ANYONE KNOW ANY OTHER WAY I NEED HELP PLEASEEEEEEEE!!!!!!!!!!! ANYONE ANY OTHER WAYS TO FIX IT?!?!??!? That would be very helpful

    I had the same problem.  I squirted a drop of WD40 in the headphone hole and then used a plastic dental toothpick and twisted it around in the hole.  It amazingly worked.
    Good luck

  • My iPhone seems to be stuck in headphone mode.  I tried plugging in and unplugging the earbuds several times, but it still does not work.  Any other suggestsions?

    My iPhone seems to be stuck in headphone mode.  I already tried plugging and unplugging my headphones, but it still is stuck in headphone mode.  What can I try next?

    I've read other methods but they didn't work for me.
    You can try cleaning the jack with a q tip, blowing into the jack and then pulling in and out the headphones (thi worked for my friend).
    The toothpick trick which i got from this link here : http://science.opposingviews.com/turn-headphone-mode-off-iphones-15782.html
    Ive also heard although it isn't the best, using an air compressor to clean out any gunk in the jack that can help aswell.
    I'm utterly frusturated at this point. I'm just going to go to the Apple Store and see what they have to say. If of these at home remedies don't work i suggest you do to and brace yourself for repair costs.
    Best of luck

  • I factory restored my iphone and now it is stuck in repair mode. i cannot connect to itunes to restore as i get error "itunes cannot find disk"

    i restored my iphone4 to factory settings because it was running slow and some apps werent working. My phone is now stuck in repair mode and is continually rebooting itself.

        Oh no! Sounds like your phone has sustained physical damage pctrackmom. Do you have insurance? If so, you can process a claim for a replacement at http://bit.ly/07CrqPK at your convenience.
