IPhone cuts off audio randomly

In the last few days my iPhone 4S will be playing a song or podcast and randomly cut off the audio from either speaker or headphones. The song continues to play in the I phone but no sound comes out and I cannot make it start again, just decides to do it itself. It seems to go better while connected to my computer but still happens. I tried restoring but chose to restore from back up so as not to lose my contacts etc maybe I should fully restore? Anyone know what it could be?
Really bloody annoying and it seems to be interfering with the lock sounds which has randomly come on and off just today.

Yes. Call failed. Call failed Call failed. Constantly. I'm pretty sure it's iOS4.

Import from FCP Cutting Off Audio

I've just had a few hours added to an interview I've been editing thanks to either a setting I don't know about or an import bug between FCP and Soundtrack. I'll try to explain.
I have 4 video tracks and their accompanying audio tracks. After editing the footage (which include several "J" and "L" cuts, if that matters), I sent the file to Soundtrack as a multitrack project. Upon beginning to work on the audio, I quickly discovered that the import had cut off some of the clips. Not all, but some. The edit sounds fine in FCP, but then the clip is cutoff mid-word in Soundtrack. For example, in FCP a clip ended on the word "purpose". In Soundtrack, the same clip ended at "pur-".
I could think of nothing else to do but take the affected clips one at a time, and by trial and error, extend the audio clips in FCP 5-10 frames past where they were supposed to go. A couple hours later....somehow--even though it sounded wrong now in FCP--it sounded correct in Soundtrack. Then I made my audio adjustments, added a background track, and took it back into FCP.
This has really confounded me. Is there some kind of export bug? A setting? What?

well you might be in the wild west just a little. I haven't tried editing anything from an iPhone. My guess is that the video isn't frame based, but that it's probably a long GOP codec. I do everything in one of the flavors of Prores. You might want to try that and see if it clears up the issue. Download a copy of Mpeg Stream clip and convert your files to ProRes and then bring them into Final Cut. Then you'll be using proper frame based footage.
Note that you can get a cable for your iPhone that, when plugged into the audio socket, gives you both audio in and monitoring out. I have one, and I use it for a Sony wireless mic set. Then your audio is automatically wedded and you can skip the hassles of double system sound. You could even take the monitor out of the H4 and run it into the camera so you have an automatic backup. Oh, and check the frequency of the sound on the iPhone footage. It might not be 48k.
Take a look at Pluraleyes, for syncing double system sound. It does a very nice job

IPhone Cuts off Full Screen Photos in Contact View

The iPhone can use a full screen photo of a contact (when a call is initiated), if the original is cropped in iPhoto as '2 x 3 (iPhone) / Portrait'. (To set up full screen view on the iPhone, the user must select a contact, tap the 'Edit' button, tap the contact photo, tap 'Edit Photo', tap 'Choose', then tap 'Done'.) However, the same photo is then cropped to a square shape when initially viewed in the Contact screen, often cutting off the person's forehead. A suggestion for improvement would be to have the iPhone use the square cropping settings of the original photo when it was added to Address Book (for initial Contact view), and then use the 2 x 3 settings when the call is initiated to have the photo fill the screen. Anyone have any workarounds?

Hello
I have updated my software recently and the full screen default for the web browser is very annoying and causing my phone to slow down badly.
Has anyone been able to turn the Full Screen web mode default off??
Or how do you delete a software update.
Thanks

SPA942 cuts off voice randomly

Hi everybody,
I am using a Linksys IP Phone SPA942 in the office and when I'm talking on the phone or dialing a number my phone just decides to cut off the voice randomly. Apparently the person on the other side of the line hears me fine, it's just me not hearing them. I tried switching phones but didn't help. I work in a healthcare company and it's really frustrating to ask patients to repeat all their complaints because you couldn't hear them! I would appreciate any help in this regard.

Unless it is broken device then it is network problem. Either NAT or statefull firewall decide not to allow packet to flow from outside to phone.
Catch packets on the wire - if you will see uninterupted bidirectional flow of RTP packets, then phone is broken, if packets dissapear in one direction then network is wrong.

My iphone cut off while using itunes and now it wont work. it cuts on and off and it wont restore.

while putting music on my iphone from itunes my iphone suddenly cut off. it wouldnt come back on unless hooked up to charger and even then it turns on and off.. i have tried restoring it but it wont work. it actually restored once but it just started doing the same thing within an hour. every other time it errors out. what can i do?

Hi emfletcher!
If you have already tried restoring the iPhone, then the next troubleshooting step to address this issue would be to try putting the phone into recovery mode and attempting a restore from there. I have an article for you that can help you perform these steps:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

In order to fully troubleshoot and isolate issues, I would recommend not restoring from your backup after you finish this procedure. Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
Cheers,

My iphone cut off

My iPhone 4S shut down and will not back up.

hold down the home/power button until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.

After updating to 6.1.2 my iPhone turns off seemingly randomly

Having the same problem. ever since i've updated 6.1.2
its a pain in the ***! any help apple? its really not ideal!!!

Video playback audio cuts off after few second

Pictures are fine but audio cuts off sometime around 5-10 seconds for the entire duration of the video unless you skip the video further a few seconds where the sound cuts off,audio are back but only for maybe 1 or 2 minutes then if you repeat the same step audio are back but again for only a few minutes,only occurs when not using headphones,but when I am using headphones video and the audio plays fine for the entire duration of the video.It annoys me as I don't usually use earphone.

Try:
- 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.
- Unsync/delete all videos and resync/redownload
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

Songs Cut Off Before Finished

Can anyone tell me why on my Mini songs occasionally stop abruptly before they finish and the next song begins?
The latest song to do this, which came off my CD, plays to completion on iTunes.
Thanks.

Hi all, I think I've figured out one solution to this problem. I have a 3rd Gen iPod and was having songs cut off. Random songs at random points near the end of the song. I've read a post here about deleting the artwork from the songs on the iPod, and it worked! Long story short: Use this script from www.dougscripts.com "removeallipodartwork" to delete all artwork from the iPod, not iTunes. iTunes is fine, only the iPod is having trouble with the little bits of artwork information. If you have any doubts, manually delete artwork from just a couple of songs, update your iPod and listen for the cut off (you can fast forward to near the end of the song). Believe me, I've tried everything else for the past 18 months or so. MP3, AAC, different quality, different iTunes versions, different iPod OS, restoring the iPod, I could go on. Hope this helps.

My phone cut off by itself and will not tun back on

the iphone cut off and will not cut back on or do anything. it is not receptive when i plug it into my computer either. Help please

Reset it:
Press the sleep/wake button & home button at the same time, keep pressing until you see the Apple logo, then release.

Shuffle cuts off last few seconds of the song

This morning when playing a playlist on Shuffle/Songs, iPod would cut off the last few seconds (15-30) abruptly and move on to the next track. I changed the shuffle to Album but with the same result. However, now in the afternoon, it is playing ok with the shuffle.
Has anyone else encountered such behavior? Could it be a bug in the software?

Ipod cuts off while playing

Suddenly, my ipod within my iPhone cuts off while playing in the shuffle mode. Most times this occurs while I have it in my pocket and am moving, but I have no idea whether this matters or not. It will either cut off completely or skip to the next song after cutting off in the middle of the previous song. Is there something that I can do to fix this?

I have the same issue. The phone works fine if I am sitting around, no problems listening to hours of music. I ride my bike and have the phone in my jersey pocket and after about 15-30min it starts going into an auto pause mode to the point I can no longer listen. This is very annoying and I think it must have something to do with the motion sensing causing the pauses.

My ipod is cutting off my MP3s

Hello. My ipod was working just fine, but a couple of months ago, it started randomly cutting off some of my songs. It doesn't do it to all of them, so far, but a few of them have lost 30 seconds to a minute. They're fine in itunes, but not my ipod.
