I took my headphones out of my iPod but when I use the volume it still says there in. Why?

I had my headphones in and then I took them out. But my iPod insists I still have them plugged in. So now I can't listen to things out loud. I'm really aggravated because I tried plugging them back in and then out but it still says I have headphones in when I use the volume. How can I fix this problem?

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. 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 iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • I restored and updated my iPod, but when I turned it on, it still says connect to iTunes

    My brother just got an ipod for Christmas, and we told him not to put a passcode on it because he would forget... but he did it anyways and he did forget! He ended up disabling it trying to unlock it. It said ''Connect to iTunes." When I connected to iTunes, it said it was disabled and needed the passcode to do whatever,  but I held the top button and the home button down for ten seconds to Restart it because we don't know the passcode! It said to Restore and Update, so I did that. Now it's in Recovery mode... and I can't get past that part! I thought I had done it right, but when it turns back on, it still says connect to iTunes! Help??

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    My iPod touch is having a little issue with the volume. When I plug in my headphones the volume works fine. When there aren't any headphones plugged in, no sound comes out from my iPod. When I go to turn up the volume, it still says headphones. I tried restarting it a few times, nothing worked. I looked up many tutorials, and still nothing did the trick. Any tips?

  • Why does it say headphones when i use the volume buttons

    why does it say headphones when i use the volume buttons instead of volume when the headphones are not plucked in?

    - 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.

  • HT204053 i'm using same apple id for my ipad & ipod but after start using the same apple id on my ipad, i can't upadte my free software, it's showing "YOU CAN NOT UPDATE THIS SOFTWARE SINCE YOU HAVE NOTOWNED THE MAJOR VERSION OF THIS SOFTWARE" so how I ca

    I'm using same apple id for my ipad & ipod but after start using the same apple id on my ipad, i can't update my free software downloaded on both, it's showing "YOU CAN NOT UPDATE THIS SOFTWARE SINCE YOU HAVE NOT OWNED THE MAJOR VERSION OF THIS SOFTWARE" so how i can update my softwares on ipad & ipod using the same apple id

    I think the issue is that iTunes (for whatever reason) thinks I have two Apple ID's.
    also, to further complicate the issue, when i try updating the apps from my iPod the iTunes store is still recognizing my old hotmail Apple ID. So when I go to enter my password it won't accept because it doesn't match with the old Apple ID, even though it is the same account (just new Apple ID name).
    I have tried signing out within the App Store and re-signing in with my Apple ID but it still brings up my old Apple ID name when I try to update.

  • I'm confused about sound on my iPad 2. I know it has speakers and it makes sounds for notifications, etc. But when I play the Time Warner TV app, there is no sound. Do I need to buy speakers or headphones?

    I'm confused about sound on my iPad 2. I know it has speakers and it makes sounds for notifications, etc. But when I play the Time Warner TV app, there is no sound. Do I need to buy speakers or headphones?

    Here is my situation, iPad 1 Time Warner app works fine with or without headphones, ipad2 I can unplug headphones and it works but when headphones are plugged in I can barely hear it even cranked up, my husbands ipad2 works fine with both so what that tells me is that there is something physically possibly programmed differently.  It really makes no sense.  I might just take my ipad2 back and swap it out.  It is weird all the other sound through the iPad comes through on headphones and speakers fine.  You are not alone with your time Warner app sound issues.

  • HT201274 So I have tried to update my iPod touch about 5 times now and it still says there is an error. I,ve erased all my settings and attempted to restore it, but it wont let me. I'm ready to throw it away and find a new product.

    So I have tried to update my iPod touch about 5 times now and it still says there is an error. I,ve erased all my settings and attempted to restore it, but it wont let me. I'm ready to throw it away and find a new product

    Errors when updating leads to corrupt system files and this may be your problem. If you're using windows, connect your device to PC and run any third party app like Syncios. If it detects, you maybe in luck and try to back-up your data if possible. I hope that it won't and if doesn't, there is no other way to recover files. You should be restoring with iTunes and all data will be erased, or else your device may become unusable.

  • My itunes store is saying that it could not contact the server, it says i need to restore my ipod but when i go to restore it, it says the server could not be contacted or something. what does this mean?

    okay so last night i went to charge my ipod in the computer and it started working then i took it out of the computer and put it on a wall charger and it had a spasm attack and shut itself down, after that it said i had to connect it to itunes so when i did it kept telling me that i need to restore my ipod, but when i press restore the itunes said "the contact server is not avalible" or something similar to that, what does that actually mean and is there anyway i can fix my ipod. i have dropped my ipod a few times, on tiles, wood, in a gutter of water when it fell out my pocket but im also wondering is it something to do with my ipod or is it itunes?

    Try:
    iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot contact the iPhone, iPad, or iPod software update server
    The abuse may prevent a restore or prevent proper operation of the iPod if you can restore the iPod.

    I have a 4th gen. Itouch wiht IOS4 and i want to update it, but when i click the update button in ITunes it says "contacting IPod software server" and it looks like it is loading. However, after about 5 seconds it stops and says "ITunes could not connect to the IPod software server". I found the apple webpage that is supposed to help me, but when i went to the LAN settings in the control panel i found that 'Automatically detect settings" was already checked. I do not know what to do, Please help.

  • Problem with speaker, I only can make calls with headphones, or with handfree speacker from my Iphonhe5, I have no devices on Bluetooth of my phone, but when i use the player and use the volum it appear like if I have a device paired

    Hi,
    I have a problem,
    I use to drive costumers cars, I don't have any devices to pair to my Iphone5.. but today I drive a car and my Iphone ask me if I want to pair the phone to the car, and I chose "Cancel" ..
    since that..
    every time I want to play a song the phone acts like if it is connected to a car or some other device, every time I try to make a call, I only can use the hands free speaker or the headphones, because if I use the normal speaker to listen with the phone next to my face, the person that I am calling can listen me, but I dont..
    so what I think it happens is like.. the phone connects to the car, the car is with the client, so, now, I can't have the the device "on" to my phone recognise it, so I would be able to delete it..
    how do I solve this situation.. how can I delete a device that my Iphone is programed to use it, even when bluetooth is off....

    I have looked at loads of sites and there is no information for how i can do it

    In itune did you play any of the songs downloaded. If so plug your ipod back in an manualy check off to sync all music. If that doesn't work you might have to restore the ipod.
