IPhone 4 no sound, what to do ?

Hi there,
I have a problem with my iphone 4. i bought it some month ago (last november) and this problem happened many time but now i'm sick of it...
The problem is that my iphone lost all sound (and it not the switch on the left side). When i try to listen some music, for example, the screen 'play' appear and it go back to the song selection menu...when i have this problem, i need to reboot the iphone many time (4-5-6 times and again...), when people call me, i can't hear them, and they can't hear me, when i try speaker, doesn't work (it like it became enable and 1 seconds after disable...can't activate it..)
I never dropped it, i never used it the wrong way. I tried restore, back up and still not working or work for sometime (1 week or less) before the problem come back.
Some people say that is a problem with the headphone connector, but it is not...when i up the volume "(headphone)" don't appear.
What can i do ? some people had this problem?
Sorry for my poor english

I got my iPhone a week ago and noticed an intermittent problem which I initially attributed to newbie ignorance. This morning no sound whatsoever. I searched and found several solutions that worked for others but not for me. I even did a Restore. Finally I found this - press on the corner that has the antenna problem.
Now I knew about the antenna issue, but not which corner has the antenna so I pressed on corners (squeezing between thumb and forefinger) until I got to the bottom right and voila! Success! My sound has returned.
I will probably be taking a little trip back to AT&T/Apple to have a little discussion about this, but until then, I guess I know what to do.

I have a nearly identical problem with my Ipad 3. Mine is the left channel. I've yet to find help, but have found a number of other posts on this and other forums discussing the issue. People have tried restore, reset etc. Also, cleaning the ports with compressed air or cotton swabs. It appears to be a software issue, but no one is sure.
Along with the original poster, I'd appreciate any help.
As far as the 'level 6' poster, if you're going to be rude, please don't bother. Hope it was just a bad day.

Try reset all settings.
Settings > General > Reset > Reset all settings. It won't delete any data.

Hey Kirby17,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you are not getting any sound from the speaker, follow this article.
iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
Try turning off Bluetooth.
If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.
Have a nice day,
Mario

Iphone 4 sound is not working in apps

My iphone 4 sound is only working in my music app and my videos and my ringtone but not on any apps such as snapchat,facebook,youtube,instagram, and more. what should i do?

Standard user troubleshooting as outlined in the manual are restart, reset, restore, restore as new. Start with a simple power off, and back on. Any change?

My Itunes Library and iPhone have fallen out of sync on music over the yearsare - how can I compare my itunes library with my Iphone to see what songs are missing from my library so I can then bring my Library up to date

Hello Solid Buck,
Thank you so much for providing the details about the duplicate song issue you are experiencing. It sounds like you would like to remove the duplicate songs that will not play on your iPhone, but when you connect it to iTunes, iTunes only shows you one copy of the song on your iPhone.
In this situation, I recommend deleting the individual songs that do not play directly from your iPhone. I found the steps to do this on page 61 of the iPhone User Guide (http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf):
Delete a song from iPhone: In Songs, swipe the song, then tap Delete.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,
Sheila M.

Iphone 3g sounds text,lock,sending mail and more

My iphone 3g sounds keep disappearing I thought I could deal with it but I cant it's very frustrating. What do you think I should do.
Message was edited by: jamin13

im a bit of a loudmouth about the text sounds issue, so far i have found that resets restores etc dont work, it comes back anyways and also apps dont cause it. I wiped out all apps on my phone and still lost sounds, also people reported never installing any apps and still losing sounds.
I think its just 2.0 being the piece of rushed crap that it is.
but i digress GO APPLE YEEAAAAAAAAA!!!!!

Iphone 5 Sound Turns Off

Hi guys, my iphone 5 sound turns off by itself after about 8 hours. Anyone knows what could be going on thanks?

I just updated to 7.1 and I am having the same problem. From the home screen, I don't hear text sounds. If I open the imessage app then you hear it, from home screen you don't. Rebooted once... no help.

Iphone 4s sound stopped working since update ?

Ever since the leatest update (5.1) my Iphone's sound doesnt work? when i play music the volume button has disappeared and the keys on the side of the phone only turns the "ringer" up and down. Ive also tried double clicking the home button and swiping to that volume control but the nozzle disapeares when i touch it. The strangest thing is when i but headphones in my volume control all comes back ?
Ive reset my phone, turned it off and on and restored it using itunes. What is wrong with it ???

"Loads" of bovine excrement!! Why don't you post links to some of those "loads of threads" discussing this. Why didn't you post in one of those existing threads in the first place??
Apple Store emplyees NEVER tell customers of "loads of complaints" or would be fired on the spot. And, in your prior post you said "apples saying that it's defiantly not a software fault".

Bad iPhone 6 sound quiality on calls

Hello. My iphone 6 sound quality during calls is bad. Sounds like the speaker is broken or something. I hear people like they were talking to me trouth a walkie talkie. I disable ambiend noise and nothing. I did get a little better quality enabling Hearing Aid Mode and the sound whent ok a little but still bad compared to iphone 5. Now i got a new iphone 6 for my wife and the same thing is happening. What is this a software or hardware problem? Sorry for my bad english.

Your house is haunted! lol I've never heard of any issue like this. The best thing to do is to set up an appointment by going to www.apple.com/retail.

You will need to contact iTunes support.

I uploaded a CD to my itunes it shows in my library but I am unable to get it on my iphone 5. what am I doing wrong??

I uploaded a CD to itunes it shows in my library but it does not show up on my iphone 5. What am I doing wrong?? working on this for 2 days now and still cannot figure it out.

I'm also having the same problem, when before I hadn't. I've been trying to research this issue too w/ little success. All of a sudden I realized that not all my songs were playing and red squares w/ red circles appeared next to a bunch of music on my playlist. So I tried to delete my playlist & re-sync but I couldn't get alot of my songs back onto my iphone 4. I believe we're being forced into subscribing to the itunes Match where it stores all your music (purchased & uploaded) on the cloud. Hoping I'm wrong.

I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 thing. But now my iphone's gmail inbox shows a random selection of emails (not most recent ones that are in my inbox). How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

I synced two of my email accounts via gmail's POP3 capabilities. But now my iphone's gmail inbox only shows a random selection of emails (i.e. right now it is May 31, 2013 but the emails in my inbox are a couple from Nov 12, a few from Oct 12, and then some way older than that and so on.When I log into my gmail from a computer, I see all my emails in the logical, standard order. How can I make my iphone inbox match what I see when I log on using a PC?

If you're trying to decide between using POP and IMAP, we encourage you to use IMAP.
Unlike POP, IMAP offers two-way communication between your web Gmail and your email client. This means when you log in to Gmail using a web browser, actions you perform on email clients and mobile devices (ex: putting mail in a 'work' folder) will instantly and automatically appear in Gmail (ex: it will already have a 'work' label on that email the next time you sign in).
IMAP also provides a better method to access your mail from multiple devices. If you check your email at work, on your mobile phone, and again at home, IMAP ensures that new mail is accessible from any device at any given time.
Finally, IMAP offers a more stable experience overall. Whereas POP is prone to losing messages or downloading the same messages multiple times, IMAP avoids this through two-way syncing capabilities between your mail clients and your web Gmail.
That is from the page that you linked- does highlighted part of message ring a bell?

Hi i upgrade from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am getting no sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever

Hi i upgraded from lion to mountain lion to day on my mini mac,Since the upgrade i am no longer getting sound through my HDMI cable which was working fine on lion Checked the midi audio settings and system preferences to out on HDMi nothing no sound whats so ever.Any one any ideas?
I use a samsung TV for my monitor via HDMI.Tried all the system Audi setting nothing .Head phone and internal speakers are fine.

Similar issue; Audio was working fine on Lion, now not on Mountain Lion. Have a Macbook Pro early 2011 with AMD Radeon HD 6750M, connected by thunderbolt through a Lacie LBD to a mini-displayport to HDMI adapter (n.b. same problem when not going through the LBD) to a Pioneer VSX 521 AV receiver. For me when I go into audio Midi settings all the volume sliders for the displayport device are greyed out and at zero. But when I click 'configure speakers', it's able to send out the test signals to each speaker. Part of the problem could be that I'm not getting the option to put out 6channel sound, only 2 or 8 channel. Since my system is Dolby 5.1, and I only have 6 speakers, I would have expected the 6ch option to be available. But I imagine there's more to it than that. Elsewhere someone has suggested playing with Remote Interactive over HD on an Onkyo device; I'll see if there's something similar on the Pioneer that can be changed. Any other suggestions welcome.
