IPhone 4: When playing a podcast and I exit it closes ipod.

Question: When I'm listening to my iPod podcast and I go to my mail (for example) it closes or pauses my iPod podcast. Is it suppose to do that? I thought it was suppose to run just like Pandora in the background?!

Do you play 'Video' podcast?
If you are playing a video, it suspends as you close the ipod app.
This happens even in music with video such as video clip.

The sound on my iPhone 4S cuts out when playing music/podcasts.

The sound on my iPhone 4S cuts out when playing music/podcasts. If I unplug and replug in the headphones, the sound comes back on, but often for only 20 seconds or so before cutting out again. Sometimes it will play for 15-20minutes before cutting out. The track is not "paused", and appears to continue, just no sound. I tried cleaning the headphone jack with compressed air to no avail. I also noticed the the same phenomenon occurs when I sync my bluetooth to my car audio. That is, it will play for a while, then the sound will cut out, even though the track is still shown to be playing. If I reset the bluetooth, the sound comes back on.
This started happening about a week ago, but no "event" that I can think of caused it. I didnt' get the phone wet, forcefully drop it, or leave it in extreme heat. I've tried doing a reset of the phone. I also was running iOS5 when I first noticed this, and since upgraded to iOS6. The problem appeared with both.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks,
Steve

One thing that helped was getting a toothbrush and scrubbing the dock connector on the phone. I scrubbed the connector and used compressed air for about 1/2 hour till the connector looked much cleaner. An Apple employee told me that the pins on the phone had a little corrosion and sand. The problem hasn't gone away completely, but has been significantly reduced. I'm going to hold out until my contract expires after which time I'll switch to an iPhone5 (or newer) or Android phone.

The sound on iPhone 4s when playing videos is terrible?

I think Apple need to update iOS 6.1.2 to repair this error, because playing is missed bass and treble. Seriously!!!

I am now missing 26 songs from my Iphone. (After resynching it told me 26 songs could not be downloaded and to see Itunes for more info, of course Itunes had no info). So now I am missing 26 songs and cant figure out how to get them back. They play through my laptop and my Ipad but I cant even see them on my Iphone anymore. I'm starting to regret my upgrade to the 4s. Help Apple!
Were these 26 songs purchased directly from the iPhone? If so, these might be "ghost" entries ... connect your iPhone to iTunes and click on the small arrow to the left of your iPhone's name. Select the iPhone's "Music" category and see if these 26 phantom songs appear grayed out. If so, that's probably what the message is about. I have the same problem, although for each of my 9 "ghost" songs on my iPhone I have legitimate entries that play just fine. I can only see these phantom entries on my iPhone when I view its contents through iTunes (and I get the same error message you get). Unfortunately, I don't have a solution for the error message, but ...
If these 26 songs really are in your iTunes library, are they set to be sync'd to your iPhone? (assuming that you auto-sync) In other words, are you either syncing your entire library, or at least a playlist (or genre) that you auto-sync to? If they're not part of your auto-sync categories, then they won't go back onto your iPhone until you designate them to auto-sync to your device.
If you manually manage music on your iPhone, can you drag and drop these 26 songs to your iPhone?

Iphone 4 when playing game no sound

hi guys:
my iphone 4 when playing game no sound but the ringstone is ok no problem,so i try to reset my phone but the problem still there~is that my hardware problem?

Hello Zijie92,
Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with sound on your iPhone. Have you checked to see if the Side Switch is enabled? This could be muting the audio:
In ring mode, iPhone plays all sounds. In silent mode, iPhone doesn’t ring or play alerts and other sound effects.
iPhone User Guide - Ring/Silent switch
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph3bd01398
If you are experiencing this issue with just one specific application, I recommend the steps in the following article:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

After updating to iOS6, I lost all sound for apps like YouTube, Netflix, games, and even notifications. The only time sound worked was during a phone call or when the head set was plugged in.
I did a full back up and restore- sound restored but only for a day before the problem returned.
Called Apple Support and was advised to do another restore, but this time restore it as NEW first, then do the restore from back up.
Seemed to do the trick.
Here are the instructions of what I was given- hopefully this will help you too:
Here is a link about backing up your iPhone with iTunes.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766?viewlocale=en_US
Once you back up your device you will want to restore it.
You will need to have iTunes open on your computer screen.
Please turn your iPhone off.
Press and hold the Home Button.
Continue to hold the Home Button as you plug you iPhone in to the usb cable.
You will want to continue to hold the Home button until you get a screen with the message "device found in recovery mode".
Please follow the prompts and restore device as NEW.
once the restore is done you will have to set up the device and test the sound.
If it works you will then need to restore the device from the back up to restore your user settings.
You can find the instructions how to restore from back up also from the the link I provided.

If your computer is running an OS X prior to Snow Leopard 10.6,
the answer (if it is an Intel-based Mac; not old PowerPC model)
would be to buy the retail Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD from Apple
for about $20, and install it. Then update that to 10.6.8 by using
the installed Snow Leopard online to get Combo Update v1.1 for
Snow Leopard 10.6.8. After that is installed & updated, run the
system's Software Update again, to see what else is available to
that system.
Later systems can then be looked into at Mac App Store, once
the computer is running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
And if your computer is a Power PC (G4/G5, etc) and has no
Core2Duo kind of CPU -- See "About this Mac" in apple menu
to disclose the general info about your Mac. Also you can see
even more by clicking on "More Info" when looking in there...
If it isn't an Intel-based Mac, it can't run a system past 10.5.8.
Hopefully this helps.
Good luck & happy computing!

I have an iphone 4s when I take pictures and send them to my computer or someone elses computer they so times appear upside down. Is it because I have windows? Can I do anything about this?

I have an iphone 4s when I take pictures and send them to my computer or someone else they appear upside down. I have a window operating system. Is there anything I can do to reverse the pictures?

OK, here's the explanation. When you take a picture, the iPhone knows what orientation it is in (portrait, landscape, etc.) and adds that information to the picture's EXIF data so it knows which side is up. Apple devices can decode this information and show the picture right side up when it is viewed. However, Windows computers cannot do this. They are not capable of decoding the orientation information added by the iPhone, so they are displayed in a default orientation (which may not be right side up).
This only happens on Windows machines, and unfortunately there is nothing you can do about it, except use the rotation buttons in Windows picture view to orient the photo correctly.

Videos created on ipad are black when played on picasa and quicktime. How do I fix this?

Videos created on my ipad2 are black when played on picasa and quicktime. How can I remedy this so any player can use the video without having to use handbrake to convert?

Assuming that you are trying to update apps that you bought with your own ID .... Try changing it in the app store app. Tap the featured tab in the App Store. Go down to the bottom left corner. You can access your ID in there as well. See if your son-in-law's ID is still showing. If it is - tap it and sign out. Sign in with your ID.
If you are trying to update apps that he bought with his ID, you have to use his ID and password to update them. Apps are always tied to the ID that was used to purchase them.

Itunes/quicktime crashes when trying to play video podcasts and 3GP files

Hello all,
I've searched these forums and didn't see anything that might help me, so if know of any solutions posted already, please let me know. I have an HP laptop(AMD Turion 64 X2 2.0 GB processor, 2 GB or RAM) running Windows Vista Home Premium. I used to be able to play 3GP files at one time with Quicktime, but now I cannot. Then, the other day I tried to play a video podcast and it starts to play, then says, "Itunes has stopped working". Quicktime does the same thing with 3GP files. This was before my update to Itunes 8.0. It happpened with Itunes 7.5.11.1 or whatever the last version was. It obviously does the same thing with Itunes 8. I've tried completely uninstalling Itunes and quicktime, then reinstalling them both and I still have the same problem. Just a note: I tried playing the video podcast via Windows Media Playey, and it worked fine, except for no audio(I don't think WMP has AAC support) so I think something is conflicting between Itunes and my computer. Anyone have any ideas? Thanks in advance!

Do you have any better luck with that if you update to iTunes 10.6.1.7?
From the notes for the release:
iTunes 10.6.1 provides a number of improvements, including:
• Fixes several issues that may cause iTunes to unexpectedly quit while playing videos, changing artwork size in Grid view and syncing photos to devices.
• Addresses an issue where some iTunes interface elements are incorrectly described by VoiceOver and WindowEyes.
• Fixes a problem where iTunes may become unresponsive while syncing iPod nano or iPod shuffle.
• Resolves an ordering problem while browsing TV episodes in your iTunes library on Apple TV.

How can I create a playlist that syncs with my ipod touch 5 that plays both podcasts and music? Before updating to itunes 11 I was able to do it and now it seems that the power is gone. (I do not have the podcast app on my ipod touch 5)

When apple first introduced the podcast app for my iphone I discovered that installing it took away the option to have a playlist (smart playlist or regular) that mixed music, audiobooks and podcasts. I therefore quickly uninstalled it and was happy to have my iOS devices happily mixing music and podcasts.
With the push to itunes 11.1 and iOS 7 on my ipod Touch and ipad mini I no longer have mixed playlists. I do see (according to itunes) that the podcasts are copied to my devices but there doesn't seem any way to play them. Nor do my mixed format playlists contain them.
When combined with the change to the podcast tab in itunes that shows all available by default and doesn't seem to offer any way to Turn it OFF so I can easily see what new unlistened to podcasts exist it seems that the way I got used to using my itunes since my ipod nano first generation has been eliminated. I haven't read why so if someone could point me to their logic on how come I would want the changes they keep trying to force on me I would at least understand their motives.
If no one has a better fix I have discovered that I can declare the podcasts to be audiobooks and get them to play that way. One downside to that approach is that it doesn't clear them out of the podcast folder thanks to the change to the iCloud friendly format or whatever they were hoping for.

And what is the wording of the error message?

Music volume keeps dropping on my iPhone 6 when using both headphones and AirPlay

when playing music on my iPhone 6, sometimes the volume will drop for reason at all. Fortunately it doesn't happen too often, but when I'm driving and it dones happen, I can bearly hear it. It corrects itself completely at random too. Please help, it's an annoying problem.

Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

You need to connect it to the computer with which you initially sync'd your iPhone to iTunes. If you claim that the computer is no longer available, it reads as if you are in possession of a stolen device.
