IPhone 5S phone calls - no sound, mic works in every other scenario

During phone conversations the person I am connented with cannot hear me! All other aspects of the phone work, I can hear them, go on speaker, etc
Tested the mic, works for Siri, Voice Memos etc.
This happened all of a sudden.
The phone is not in headset mode, there is nothing lodged in the jack. I am not on mute, the volume is turned up, etc
I have restarted several times and nothing. Otherwise the device is functioning as normal.
Any tips? I am at a loss.

You're not speaking to Apple on in this forum, nor will someone from Apple see this post. We are just users like you and I.
Have you tried to restore or reset your phone?

My iphone 4 'phone app' suddenly won't work

My iphone 4 'phone app' suddenly won't work. It's not a microphone or other hardware problem because I can use viber normally. I have already upgraded to iOs 6.1.2 from a 5.1 (when the problem started), and even after the restore it still won't work.

This is asked and answered multiple times daily.
If you've tried a restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new as recommended in the User Guide and this fails to solve your problem, then you have a hardware failure and will need to bring your phone into Apple for replacement.

Call Audio On and Off with every other call

My wife both have the Samsung Intensity 3. We like the phones but every since getting them the call sound only comes on every other call whether going out or receiving. Even just yesterday I was stuck in the desert with limited reception and had to call 911 and the call sound wasn't on which was awful when I would only have sporatic 30 second windows of service.
This is my second new Samsung Intensity II after they replaced it 2 weeks ago and I don't know what the problem is. As I said, my wife has the exact same issue. And it happens everywhere we go not just at home.
I don't know what to do other than get another phone model.

No the sound comes back on. On the second attempt at calling the sound would be on. My previous device did not have this issue.
Since this problem was constant and we couldn’t any longer to resolve the issue we opted to get a different device. We switched to the LG Extravert and now the issue does not occur at all. The phone works exactly like it should.
So I don’t know why the Samsung Intensity III was having so many issues, especially after getting another new Intensity after the first one did the same thing.

My ipod is cracked and it chipped away a little more last night and that's when my wifi stopped working. My wifi works on every other device in my house except for my ipod. Is there something wrong with my ipod?

Does the iOS device connect to other networks?
Does the iOS device see the network?
Any error messages?
Try right next to the router
Do other devices now connect?
Did the iOS device connect before?
Try the following to rule out a software problem:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Power off and then back on your router
.- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Could it be this?
iOS: Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim
One user reported that placing the iPod in the freezer fixed the problem. A trick that works frequently with iPhones:
Settings > AirPlane Mode ON, Do Not Disturb ON
Power down and wait 5-10 minutes
Power up
Settings > AirPlane Mode OFF, Do Not Disturb OFF
If not successful, an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is usually in order.

Nothing will print. My printer works with every other program, but not this one!

I see the printer, in blue when I click on the hardware tab. Actually there are 2 things listed that have to do with the printer.
The first one is called:
HP Photosmart Prem C410 series (DOT4PRIN.... and under the Type it is listed as IEEE1284.4...
The next is listed as:
HP Phototsmart Prem C410 series and under the Type heading it says Printers.
I don't know which one to pick. So when I choose the name highlighted in blue, what do I do to change the name?

What happens when you try?
Do you get a message?

IPhone 5s no call/text sounds work. Game sounds done work either. Only sound that works are music and videos

the call/text sounds don't work. Neither do sounds coming from the games I play(clash of clan) or other apps I use such as snapchat/vine. the sounds only When I play music/videos

Hi there Prideleader,
You may want to try force closing all open apps and resetting the device as an initial troubleshooting step. Take a look at the articles below for more information.
iOS: Force an app to close
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset

Can't hear phone calls/button sounds or use speaker phone lg extravert

I tried to make a phone call but can't hear any ringing, the call goes through but nothing happens. My volume for the earpiece is at maximum and so is the main volume on my phone, I can't hear the button sounds either. If I hit the play button, I can hear the ringtone it plays for volume check and it will also play the power up and power down tones. I tried to use speaker phone, but when I touch the button it won't work. I took the battery out and that did not help at all. I also reset my phone, and that also did not help. I checked my alarm setting since I use that frequently and it works just fine too. I am extremely unhappy because I had this phone replaced in August because the camera stopped working and now it looks like I'll have to do it again but out of warranty.

@ceasonly
I'm glad you still have some way to hear the audio on your phone, but let's get that speaker working! The most common reason for the phone's sound to stop working would be the switch on the side has been nudged accidently. Try to enable then disable Silent Mode http://bit.ly/Xhs40k to get the volume working again. Also, try to simply restart your iPhone by holding the power switch and home button together for 10 seconds. Nothing gets erased but it helps cleat out any temporary glitch your phone may experience.
If you're still having trouble, the next best step would be to reset the phone's settings http://bit.ly/HWRbPl. This does erase information from your phone, so make sure to back up http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766 your iPhone information first.
Keep me posted if you continue to have audio trouble.

IPhone 4 Phone Call Issues

About a week ago I noticed my iphone 4 (updated IOS) was having issues with phone calls. I would make a call to someone and mid-call they could no longer hear me. In other cases, I made a call to someone and they never could hear me at all. Other cases, someone calls me and they cannot hear me. Finally ther are cases where I call someone and mid-call there is a bunch of static and they cannot hear me.
I spoke with Apple and they told me that I needed to restore the phone and install it as a new iPhone. This should deal with the issue. I did such steps and then synced the phone and tried to make a call. The first three calls nobody could hear me. The next call they could hear me for 2 minutes and then static and nothing.
I have had a new SIM card installed and have reset the network as well. In reading the Apple Support Community postings, it looks like the only long term solution is to acquire a new phone. Is there any other solution anyone knows of to help remedy this situation. I have had the iPhone 4 for 2 years without an issue and in the last week, this crops up. It has not been in water, it has a case on it, I am not covering up the mics, the speaker phone is off.
Next to getting a new phone, any ideas?

There is nothing to sort out.
Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
If the issue still occurs, take the device to Apple for evaluation as there is obviously a hardware issue.

I updated my 4s to iOS 6.0, now i can no longer make phone calls. Everything else works.

I updated to the new iOS 6.0 software for my iphone 4s and now every phone call I make is ended before it rings. Messaging, voicemail, facetime, wifi, 3G/4G network are all still working. I've turned it off then on and reset the network settings and still nothing. any other ideas?

1. Reset iPhone (no data loss): Press both home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple Logo appears
2. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings

TS5458 I cannot get phone calls on Mac to work

I have a 2010 mac mini and an iPhone 5s. both are on the latest softwares. when a call comes in, my Mac will alert me as it should in Yosemite. But if fails when i try to answer. i also get a failure when i try to make a call from my Mac. i have
restarted both the mac an iPhone
made sure bother using the same FaceTime and iCloud
turned off handoff and reenabled it
turned off and reenabled FaceTime cellular calling
so far nothing. the only thing that works as advertised is SMS on Mac from my iPhone
please help.

I have the top-of-the line 2013 MBP w/Retina that I just updated to Yosemite. I also have an iPhone 6+ 128Gb. They won't "handoff" and won't channel phone calls to my MBP like talked about.
I've tried everything I can think of in the changing of the settings but there doesn't seem to be any published list of setting requirements anywhere. It's all been SWAGs.
The two won't even pair over bluetooth.

Problems with 'Find My iPhone' & Making Phone Calls

Find my iPhone was installed in my iPhone 4 and I would like to ask a few questions as stated below:
1. When I lost my iPhone, can I find where my iPhone is? My wifi option is usually turned off to save battery and the cellular data is also turned off as the Internet package in my country is not cheap.
2. When I try to access find my iPhone on a pc with the conditions above, my iPhone cannot be located. Does it related to the settings in 'Mail, Contacts and Calendars'? The Find My iPhone option is on in the iCloud tab and in the 'Fetch New Data' tab, 'push' is on and fetch 'manually'.
3. Sometimes, when I go to certain areas, I can't make a phone call or receive messages as well. I try to restart my iPhone but it doesn't seemed functioning at all. I tried to type *#06# several times in the phone interface, but it didn't show me anything. After a time, I figured out that after I turned on and off 'cellular data' then only it returned to normal condition. The imei number also will pop out a few times as I typed in the phone interface several times.

I usually use wifi when I am at home or even out. If I cannot track where my iPhone is, then what use of Find My iPhone invented for? And also the built in Assisted GPS function for the only uses of offline navigation and location service ONLY when with Internet access. Unlike the other phones such as GalaxySII, it can be real-time tracked. Although Apple has many restrictions, but it should improve the safety services.
iPhone or iPad, with or without cellular data or even wifi sometimes, is always full with fun and functionable. I can deal with my works with many useful apps such as quick office, pages etc. When I am bored, oops, I'm sorry, I won't be bored - I can spend my time with a thousand types of games or watching a series of movies/ dramas downloaded. With iDevices, I will not be living in a dull and meaningless world.
