Iphone 5 suddenly no sound

I recently had a software update (6.1.4) on my Iphone 5.  I ran the update last week and everything seemed fine.  However, as of yesterday my phone no longer made sound, it just stopped making sounds to everything.  It makes no sound when it rings, when I receive a text/email or when I try to listen to music.  The sound is completely dead.  The little switch on the left of the phone is turned on for volume.  I did a reset and nothing seems to help.  Has anyone encountered this problem?  Does anyone have a solution?

  • IPhone suddenly no sound during phone conversation!  Help!

    Hi all,
    Recently my iPhone suddenly no sound during phone conversation, can't hear any sound from the other side. However if i choose 'handfree' during call engaging then it's ok for external speaker. Also listening music is ok...
    Also I obsevered that the light-sensor won't blank the screen. Is it hardware issue so that I have to send to Apple for repair?
    Please help!! Thanks.
    Regards,

    Fixed..refer to some old post. Re-insert headphone plug several times and solved.

  • Imported video from iPhone suddenly without sound. Thanks Apple!

    Is there any way of recovering the original file from my iphone? Im used to Apple delivering products of high quality therefore I delete all files from my iPhone after importing to my computer. You shouldnt have to save the files just to make sure the import was a success.   But this time I shouldnt have trusted this lousy piece of "equipment".  I, full of anticipation, watched my movies. They have not sound! Why now!? Why these movies?! I have not changed any settings in my iPhone at all since last recording of videos with working sound and I have racorded videos with working sound after these.
    The imported videofile have no sound at all. This is not a question about volume. VLC tells me there is no sound stream at all! Videos taken the day after have normal working sound. Presumably worthless iTunes messed up the importing and some great, priceless minutes of video gets destroyed because there is no sound!
    Please someone help me recover the original files from my iPhone or get these minutes of video WITH sound. pleaase!

    The fact that you never heard of it doesnt change my situation. But thanks for the sympathy.
    The problem still exists.
    If it is not iPhotos fault. It must be Apples video-app on my iPhone. Right?! Its still the same company that made this junk. I dont know of any swith muting the sound while recording video.
    I am also aware of the problems involved in saving data that has been flagged "OK to delete" by the OS.
    Regarding the "try google tip" Im not sure if you are suggesting any other means of data recovery that wouldnt be proper to suggest on this website but still might work. If that is the case please insist on suggesting that method once more, maybe beeing a bit more specific?
    If you are just beeing polite and havent got any more answers but still want to help by giving me standard answer. Thank you for your help but it wasnt enough.

  • When I rec videos with iPhone 5 the sound doesn't exist but only a annoying noise..WHY?!

    Suddenly now when I rec videos with iPhone 5 the sound doesn't exist but only a annoying noise..WHY?!

    Only songs that are physically stored on the iOS device can be deleted with a swipe. Songs that have been listened to, and are in the temporary cache, apparently can not be deleted with a swipe. The easiest way to get rid of these songs is to go to Settings > General > Usage, tap Music (you may need to scroll down in the list), swipe across "all music" then tap the delete button. This will delete ALL music on the device.
    Also, iCloud and iTunes Match are not the same service.

  • IPhone 3Gs no sound after 6.1.3 update

    So I was just playing some music with my iPhone 3Gs when suddenly the sound goes off.. there was nothing.. even keyboard ticks everything theres no sound..
    The sound works in earphones and also in calls (earpiece) but the speakers are not working..
    I've searched the forum and other people have simillar problem with their iPhones 4, 4s and 5 running in 6.1.3.. The only solution they said was giving it to a local apple store.. but my warranty has expired and the apple store in my place is far away..
    The volume bar is showing.. I can slide the volumes still.. no sound
    I already tried to restore.. but still no luck of having sound..
    Can someone please help.. cuz i know 6.1.3 is the last iOS in 3Gs.. and I dont wanna buy a new one..

    I have an i-phone5 after software update 6.1.3 i have no sound form either music ringtones and calls. I have to use my head set. I called Apple and they just gave me a solution, go to the apple store?  I am with out a phone. I payed $800.00 for this I-phone 5. 

  • My iPhone wont play sound without headphones in

    My iPhone wont play any sound without headphones in the volume
    Buttons work but won't change sound my speaker won't play any sound at all

    i had the same problem and used a very small screwdriver, inserted carefully into the heaphone socket, to very gently push the microswitch at the bottom of the socket. i did this a couple of times and suddenly the sound works again.
    i think the button down there can get stuck and cause this problem, or maybe it was just a fluke... try it anyway- it worked for me!

  • Movies I record with the iphone have no sound

    I've recorded a few movies with the iphone where the sound was fine, and now suddenly the last few have no sound when I play them back. I know I'm not covering the microphone...they are next to the charging dock on the bottom...
    any ideas??

    Connect to iTunes.
    Do a sync as each sync makes a back up.
    When done click restore this time instead of sync (right there in iTunes)
    It will reinstall the OS.
    You can restore from back up to see if just the fresh OS fixed it and thus your backup will be put back too with all your data.
    If doesn't fix, repeat but when it asks ifyou want to use backup, say no this time and restore it as a new phone.
    If that still fails, then take it to Apple.
    Restoring is what they suggest first and they will try in the store as well if you didn't.

  • I couldnt use my iphone. suddenly, the face on its screen just went big

    i couldnt use my iphone. suddenly, the face on its screen just went big & hanged! what happened? can i save the information stored thereat?

    Hey there!
    It sounds like you are having trouble updating iTunes, even though you are connected to the internet. I would start with the troubleshooting in the following article to help resolve any software conflicts, or security software issues:
    Resolve issues between iTunes and security software
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3125
    If this does not resolve the issue, I would next remove the iTunes software (this will not compromise your iTunes library):
    Removing and reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1923
    Or
    Removing and Reinstalling iTunes and other software components for Windows XP
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1925
    Then download iTunes with this link and install it:

    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Iphone speaker is sounding buzzy/distorted

  • Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

    Why iPhone 6 Plus sound microphone not working, but in the case of sound recordings in conversation mode work?

    Sighhhh, wasted so much time yesterday and today going around Sony centre and then carphone warehouse. They told me to come back after Easter.
    I came home, banged the phone against the wall and it worked.
    Turned out that mic was working on loud speaker and when using headphones so I thought that the secondary mic is working and the main one (placed with the speakers) isn't. So I banged that part against the wall slightly (in plastic case to prevent scratches) then put the phone underwater, waited for it to dry and now it's working. Idk how well and if it's of perfect quality again but people can hear me well.

  • Since updating to iOS 6, my 4th gen iPod touch, and my 3rd gen iPad has sound in and out. Sometimes it's on, and then all of a sudden, no sound. I've tried everything from restarting to fully resetting each one starting fresh, but nothing. Please help.

    I have exactly the same problem. I have tried almost everything and I am nowhere near an Apple shop as I am working in Africa.
    Did you manage to find a solution? Help please if possible. Regards Az

  • My phone was sitting on the table, with nothing turned on, and all of a sudden it sounds like there is air coming out of my speakers.

    My phone was sitting on the table, with nothing turned on, and all of a sudden it sounds like there is air coming out of my speakers.  It does this for 1 minute straight, then will stop. When I pick it up, then set it back down, it does it again.
    HELP!!!

    No nothing will show up on the screen.. If I push the 'home' center button it continues doing it, same with the sleep/wake button.
    I thinking it may be static out of my speakers --but I don't understand why all of a sudden it is dong this. I have had no problems with this phone, until now.

    No such model exists, therefore there is no problem.
    Seriously though, clean the dock connector and headphone jack.  Lint/debris in either can cause problems.
