Iphone 6 no longer plays music/photos to my Denon Receiver/Sony TV

On my iPhone 4 (still on IOS 7) I was able to play music directly to my Denon AVR. I could also show pictures on my Sony TV.
Last night I tested this with my iPhone 6, not sure if its the phone or IOS 8, but it was unable to do either of these things. The devices simply never showed up in the list of options, I just saw things like email or facebook etc. where normally the connected device list would be below. I had to go back and use my iPhone 4 to share some pictures and music.
Anyone know if this is functionality that I can get back? I'm not sure why it would regress like this from working to not working, but that's something I used fairly often and am hoping I can still do it.

Did everything you suggested. No change. Still charges the Iphone, but will not play music on either the Sony dock station or my other dock station. The fact that the Iphone quit playing music on both dock stations on the same day, makes me wonder if the issue is with the Iphone. Took it to the local Apple store and they say the problem has to be with Sony. With all of the other folks experiencing similar issues, there seems to be intermittent compatibility issues between Iphones and some devices, but Apple says it is not their problem.

HT1222 my iphone 4S no longer plays music output to speaker after updating to version 6.1.3. I am unable to reset the phone to an earlier version! How do I get my audio output to speaker back? (music, audible, youtube, netflix))

So you have business contacts that were lost... do you not have these on a Database in some shape or form? Sounds like you need to invest in a RAID1 backup setup for your computer so you dont have this issue in the future.
As for repairing your problem, sounds like you are going to need to start from scratch at this point or if the data is still on your phone look into a program that can take the information from the phone onto iTunes.

IPhone 4 no longer playing music in dock

Hi,
My iPhone 4 has stopped playing music through any of my Apple docks. My friends iPhone 3 plays music through the same docks ok so the problem doesn't lie with them. My iPhone 4 charges in the dock Ok but just doesn't play music. I suspect this could be related to a recent IOS upgrade - I'm currently on 5.1
Has anyone else experienced this or know of a solution?
Thanks!

Hi hockeymom11!
So it looks like you have a couple of issues here, let me address them individually. If you have a backup in either iTunes or iCloud, you will want to apply that backup to your iPhone in order to get your contacts back. The article informing you on restoring from your backup can be found here:
iCloud: Restore your iOS device from iCloud
http://support.apple.com/kb/ph12521
As far as the songs go, you will probably want to try deleting all of the songs off of your phone and resyncing them onto your iPhone.
The car stereo issue is a little more intricate, and has a whole article to itself outlining troubleshooting steps. You can find that article right here:

Hope that helps, and thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!

Iphone 4s no longer plays music in my car!

Last week I lost all my contacts, they disappeared, everything else is in tact. I decided to do the upgrade that itunes asked for on my 4s, now I cant play any songs in my car when I plug my phone into usb. Worked perfectly fine before. Sometimes a song will play a bit and then just quit. The songs work fine when listening on itunes.I also noticed that when syncing a number of songs doubled on my playlists on my phone....any suggestions?

Can no longer play music through headphones

My iPhone will no longer play music (spotify, iTunes, radio, podcast) when using headphones. I recently upgraded to iOS 6.0.1

I would first treat it like a hardware issue, take a cotton swab and remove some of the cotton and stick it in the headphone jack to clear out any pocket lint that might be interfering with the connectivity of the headphones. If you are still having a problem I would contact Apple.

After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - whihc has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5.

After ios 8 update I can no longer play music through my car. I have a 2012 Nissan Rogue - which has its own cable made to use with iPhone 4 - I use a apple adapter to converst to use with 5. Has been working fine up until update. Is there a fix for this? The car does not have usb

Here I come to save the daaaaaaaaaay!!!
Had the same issue with my Nissan Rogue 2011.
This listed below will fix it...
Go to General > Restrictions > CarPlay -- Make sure Carplay is DISABLED. (The new IOS 8 enables this on default)
Go to General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
The Nissan Rogue radio system was never designed to work with CarPlay. By default, CarPlay feature comes enabled when you install IOS 8. Suckz, right?
You're very welcome! Have a great day!
Sincerely,

My iphone no longer plays music on intempo rdi

Hi
Since the latest IOS update my iphone no longer plays music on intempo rdi dock

I too am having the same problem. I have an Infiniti 2010 G37 and have always used an apple cord to connect either my iphone 3GS or my 4th generation Nano to the usb port in my car. It used to allow me then to access all my music through my built in nav/stereo system. Since last update, I get message that says this device is not supported

Also when I plug in my iPhone to a jack that uses a power amp like external speakers it works fine. I have no idea whats going on i've restored it twice and still nothing.

Iphone 5c with iOS8 no longer plays music through cadillac cue

iphone 5c with iOS8 no longer plays music through cadillac cue

Thanks for the the reply Jeff.
Actually I misstated my initial question. The iPhone works fine through the bluetooth connection to Cadillac CUE but it does not function when tethered. If I use the voice command in the car to play music, CUE recognizes the request, loads the selection and then freezes. I can see the album cover on the screen and the player control loads but the music does not start. After a short period, CUE flashes UNKNOWN ALBUM, UNKNOWN ARTIST. it took a while for me to understand the complexities of the CUE and iPhone voice command interaction but just when I had it worked out, the update to iOS8 killed it again.
I seem to recall having a similar problem when the first version of iOS 8 came out. The first update solved the problem, but the latest update has created the problem again.
Any thoughts? Are others having this same difficulty?

Since upgrading my iPhone 4 to IOS6 it no longer plays music through the Apple Dock

Since I have upgraded my iPhone 4 to IOS 6 it no longer plays music through the Apple Dock.
The dock still charges the phone, no error messages appear on the screen when I connect it but when trying to play music the sound just comes out of the speakers on the phone and not through the connected dock.
I have obviously tried a reset (power and home button together) as suggested for fixing other sound issues people seem to be experiencing but this made no difference.
Any help would be appreciated!

Why would there be a fix? YOU are having the problem. I'm not, no one I know is having the problem. No fix is needed.
Basic troubleshooting steps clearly outlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new. Have you been through any, if not all of these troubleshooting steps yet?

My iPhone 4S will be playing music and then it will stop and go into dock connector mode. What do I do to stop this?

Hi, my iPhone 4S will be playing music or nothing and it will randomly stop! I doesn't even show the volume bar. It goes right into
dock connector mode when it's not even on a dock. It only does this when I want to play music through the iPhone speaker. I
don't know what to do or how to fix this, It started doing this when I was on 5.0.1 and I read something saying it would help
to upgrade my phone, so I went to 5.1 and nothing was fixed, sometimes it does this and than it doesn't. For me to get it back to
normal I need to hold down the Siri button and select the way I want it to play when the device button comes up and it says
" iPhone " , " iPhone Speaker " and sometime it won't even say those. Will apple give me a new phone if I take it in? I never signed up
for Apple care. I just got this phone in February 2012. PLEASE HELP ME.

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore. Has any of this been tried?
Unless and until is has been, Apple will not do anything, beyond the basic troubleshooting listed above.

ITunes says I have authorized five computers so I can no longer play music I have purchased. I have not replaced my computer once. Why does iTunes say this?

Hey Christownsend,
Thanks for the question. To troubleshoot this issue, you may want to try deauthorizing all computers:
iTunes Store: About authorization and deauthorization
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1420
To deauthorize all computers associated with your Apple ID
If you need to authorize your new computer and are unable due to already having five authorized computers, you can deauthorize all computers by doing the following:
1. Click iTunes Store on the left side of iTunes.
2. If you're not signed in to the store, click the Account button, then enter your account name and password.
3. Click the Account button again (your Apple ID appears on the button), enter your password, and then click View Account.
4. In the Account Information window, click Deauthorize All.
Note: You may only use this feature once per year. The Deauthorize All button will not appear if you have fewer than two authorized computers. If you need assistance on using this feature, please contact iTunes Store support via email (http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/store/).
Thanks,
Matt M.

HT4972 Has anyone had issues with failure of the music player to launch after updating to OS5? My Gen 3 will no longer play music!

Has anyone had issues with failure of the music player to launch after updating to OS5? My Gen 3 will no longer play music!

I think a few have.
Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing is lost
Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
