Iphone 4s wont play long playlist frommusic app

i have an iphone 4s. when i sync playlist longer than 200 songs its hangs up. and i have one with 2000 songs and it wont open them. clear white screen, then shut down music app. help.

So the sleep button only works intermittently? That sounds like the switch is about to fail. This isn't that uncommon... If you go to
settings -> general -> accessibility -> assistive touch
Turn this on and you will find a translucent little doo-dah appears. In this under device there is an option to set your phone to sleep. It's not the best solution but at least you'll be able to lock it when it does fail completely.
As for your sound problems, it may be that the mute switch is broken, make sure vibration is set to on and give it a wiggle. Your phone should vibrate when you set it to silent and an icon should also appear momentarily on the screen.
Also, I'd check your settings as headphone volume and speaker volume are set independently of each other.

    My iphone 4 wont play sound through the internal speaker. Will play if I hook up headphones. I have reset it, restored it, and it does the same thing. I can still hear when i make calls too. The the output button only says dock connector or apple tv.

    If the phone has ever gotten wet it may be damaged. It may also have dirt or a bent pin in the dock connector or the earphone jack. Try cleaning the dock connector and inspecting it with a magnifying glass. Try inserting and removing the earphone plug several times. If you have restored it and that did not fix the problem damage is the most likely cause.

  • My iphone 4 wont play ringtones on itunes

    my iphone 4 wont play ringtones on itunes as it says i need to be running an iOS 5.0 or later. i tried to update my phone but itunes says my phone is up to date with version 4.3.5? Any ideas? this has just happened today (12/10/11) The ringtones i alread have play fine on the phone.

    I believe you have to make the ringtones in iTunes for them to work. Not sure if they are mp4 format as that is what works on the iPhones.

  • Music has red dots on iphone and wont play

    Some music has red dots and wont play on iphone but appears on ipad and plays. Also cant update pc with music purchased on ipad that has been backed up on icloud.

    I'm experiencing the same issues. Some songs will play andsome it just skips through and I can't make it stop scrolling up to the point where it will take me back to the main screen. depending how many times I do it or when I do it, some songs that didn't play on the initial try might play then, but not my whole playlist. All the songs play on my Ipad 3 and Ipod and they used to play on my Iphone 4 with iOS 6.

    Hello atbruner,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post I see that you'd like your videos taken on your iPhone to be automatically synced to your other devices via iCloud.  Photo Stream will only sync your photos between your devices, however Apple recently introduced the iCloud Photo Library beta which will sync all of the content taken on your devices.  To learn more about these items, please take a look at the articles below.
    Which photo formats does My Photo Stream support?
    My Photo Stream supports JPEG, TIFF, PNG, and most RAW photo formats. My Photo Stream doesn't work with video.

  • Iphone 4 wont play videos after upgrade ios 4.3.2

    I wonder if anybody can poine me in the right direction.
    I have an Iphone 4 running the latest iOS 4.3.2, the problem is that I can't play non-native videos on my iphone using Apps such as Azul Media Player or VLC. Both afore mentioned Apps are supposed to make viewing of non-native formats such as .mpeg. avi, etc possible, - indeed they DID prior to latest iOS upgrade.
    Now it might be worth mentioning that Ive upgraded my iphone to latest iOS but Ive also installed a new Windows based PC at home. I'll tell you why ive mentioned this.
    Originally video files where imported to my iPhone via Itunes which was running on an old X86 Windows Based PC - Windows XP Pro SP3
    verything was fine, no problems importing using iTunes File Sharing and equally no problems viewing videos using Azul Media Player.
    Yesterday seems to be where everything seemed to go heywire!
    I took delivery of a new Acer AX3950 Computer running 64-bit Windows 7 Home Premium.
    I installed 64-bit Itunes then reinstalled a back-up of data from DVD which contained all Music Albums, Apps etc. I then connected my iPhone 4 to my new PC and sync'd - everyhting went smoothly just as anticipated, all data restored lost nothing.
    Then, Im prompted to upgrade to latest iOS 4.3.2, which I did.
    All files downloaded, unpacked and went thought the verification process with Apple Inc, iPhone was preparred to receive latest iOS then the installation began, - and subsequently failed before completion. I was then offered the choice of performing a recovery - losing all Music Albums, Apps restoring my Iphone to its native factory settings, - which was my only option at this stage. So, I opted to perform a recovery, - which failed also!
    Now im left with an iPhone 4 in my hand which is about as much use as a chocolate fireguard. There was a picture on the screen which depicted a USB data cable with the words Recovery Mode above. Then, low and behold, I had a bright spark of an idea...
    I went and fetched my old X86 based Windows XP Pro SP3 computer set it up and connected my iPhone to one of the USB ports.
    Then I opened iTunes which detected the phone was in recovery mode and asked if I wanted to Recover my iPhone installing latest iOS and returning it to native factory settings, - again, I had no other option, so I went ahead.
    Once again iOS 4.3.2 was downloaded from Apple, unpacked, verified, iPhone was prepared etc..
    installation began and continued successfully including reboot, - Yippie! My iPhone 4 sprung into life!
    I was then offered the choice of restoring all data from a recent back-up - which I did. After almost 2 hours (despite iTunes contdown timer continually saying 7 minutes remaining) I finally restored my iphone back to what I thought was it's fully working condition. Well almost, apart from the video rendering issue as mentioned.
    Now, if you're still with me, - and God knows I hope you are..
    This is what I'm wondering..
    Why is it I can't play non-native video files on my iPhone 4 since upgrade to latest iOS 4.3.2?
    Please help if you can it would be greatly appreiated. - my iPhone is bog-standard issue, all Apps have been purchased via App Store and the phone has not been tampered with - i.e. Jailbroken.
    Yours with much respect.

    I have the same EXACT problem.  it won't play some of my videos, any youtube videos (says it cannot connect to server) and won't play a lot of other internet videos

  • ITunes only plays one song at a time, it wont play my playlist or library

    all of a sudden my itunes will only play one song and then stop and when i press the "next" button, it just stops the song playing. and now there are check boxes in front of each song and i dont know what it means? i just want to be able to put my library on shuffle and play through them!!

    The check boxes have been there for as long as I can remember. You can see them in screenshots back as far as iTunes 1: iTunes Screenshots
    The check boxes have a number of uses: iTunes: Understanding the Symbols Next to Songs
    Unchecked songs will be skipped when playing songs from the library or a selection. They will only play when individually clicked on.
    Smart Playlists have an option that unchecked songs won't appear.
    Unchecked songs will not be burned to CD.
    The iPod has an option to only sync checked songs
    The Genius & iTunes DJ features will ignore unchecked songs
    Basically unchecking is a way of telling iTunes to ignore the item and exclude it from other automatic features.

  • IPod on iPhone 4 starts playing when switching between apps

    My iPhone 4's iPod starts playing when I switch between apps, it goes on and off

    Not sure if this is the deal or not, when I click on my ipod app it's playing a song, I can't here any music but the pause button is showing, is it playing and running down the battery.. BTW I never seem to have earphones around to see if it's playing, however I have sync in my car and it is playing when I switch to aux..
    Thanks for any help and I hope I'm not stepping on your positing. sorry if I am..

  • I iphone 4 wont load any kind of app or video

    my i phone 4 wont load anykind of app or video in wifi or 3g

    Also check to see that your silence switch isn't toggled on. The switch is located next to the volume up and down buttons on the left side of the device when you are looking at the display.
    If you are using a case, the switch may be covered or difficult to access.
    Toggle the switch and try to play music.

  • How to reinstall old app purchased on iphone that is no longer available in App Store?

    A couple years ago I purchased a Colorado maps app (I can't remember the name) from the App Store. The computer that I had it backed up on crashed, so I had to reinstall iTunes on a fresh hard drive.
    I still have the backup files of the hard drive that had the app backed up on it. But I don't know how to access the files for that lost app.
    Is there a way to reinstall or recover old apps no longer available in the app store from an old backup of itunes or something?
    Thanks

    You're actually overthinking it. You have the backup of that app of your old HD, yes? On Vista, go to:
    c:\Users\[Username]\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music\Mobile Applications
    The tricky part is finding the app name, since you've forgotten it, but try to go with the obvious names first. "Colorado.ipa" etc. Try Appshopper.com's search feature, to possibly refresh your memory. When you've found it, make a copy of it, and install it on your new iTunes Mobile Apps folder. Click on it, and let it load. You'll see it in iTunes (if you're using the same account as before). Good luck.
