IPhone screen no longer turns off while playing podcasts

Up until a few days ago my iPhone screen would turn off (go black) while I was playing back a podcast. When I wanted to stop or pause the podcast I would hit the Home button twice to bring up the controls. I must have inadvertantly changed a setting, because now while playing a podcast, the screen remains on the podcast screen and doesn't "go black". I listen to podcasts on speaker during my commute and I'm concerning having the screen on for so long will run down the battery. Is there a setting I can check into?
Thank you.

Hard reset-hold home and power button until it power cycles. If that doesn't fix it backup and restore. If that doesn't fix it restore as new. If that doesn't fix it take it in to Apple.

  • S890 screen turns off while playing games

    I bought this phone a week ago.Everything about this phone is awesom except one thing. The screen turns off while playing games automatically,which is really annoying. Is there any fix for this??

    Graphics card springs to mind;
    also, in your game settings, in either options or video settings (or similar). Are the settings correct for your card. I know on a low end PC, "full hardware acceleration" can cause crashing.
    I'd still think, it's more a graphics related problem. If you have a big flat screen mintor (e.g 24,27 or even 30") then that, in it's own right needs a good card. Add the game to it and you may have problems. I do take it you have compared the specs with what's required on the box (of the game) and "about this mac/"more info"). All the best.

  • IPad turns off while playing certain games.

    During certain newer games, my iPad will freeze and either keep the screen and have rectangles, or it will go black and restart. While this is a relatively small issue, I would just like to know if there is an easy solution; will I just not be able to play certain games? Or is there a fix?

    Try the basic:
    (A) Restart iPad
    1. Hold down the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears.
    2. Drag the slider to turn off iPad.
    3. Turn iPad back on, hold down the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears
    (B) Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
    Note: Data will not be affected.
    (C) Reset all settings
    Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
    (D) Restore iPad
    1. Connect your device to your iTune (computer).
    2. Select your iPad when it appears in iTunes.
    3. Select the Summary tab.
    4. Click the Restore button.
    Note: Data will be lost

  • Laptop ThinkPad W701 turns off while playing games...

    I got this laptop for 2 years and it has never done this before. Two weeks ago it started turning off when I played games like Skyrim or Europa Universalis 4.
    The laptop is hot at the place where the graphic card is located but the fan seems to be working...and PC doctor has no error.
    I disassembled the laptop and cleaned it from dust but it did not work...
    I tried different drivers (for quadro fx 2800m) and now I have installed the 326.80 beta, but it's still the same...
    I don't know what to do, I'm so angry that i'm considering to buy a Dell Alienware... can someone help me, please?

    Hey Xardas,
    I'll reinstall Win7 in a week to be sure it isn't an other problem.
    I uninstalled one device in the device manager, it was an ATI device, I installed a recommended benchmark so that was it's device I guess.
    As you said, I took a look into the Event Viewer, by the way thanks for that I didn't know that there is some kind of program :) , and there is one event that matches to the time, the display turns black. Maybe my translation won't be the best one :S
    *_+The discription for Event-ID "14" from "nvlddmkm" could not be found. Maybe the component, who starts this event, is not installed on the system or the installation is damaged. You can install these components on this lokal system.+_*
    *_+\Device\Video5+_*
    *_+CMDre 00000001 00000094 ff1fe138 00000007 00000000+_*
    I hope the translation isn't as bad as I think it is :/

    There are no user serviceable parts in an iPhone. Since you
    made an unauthorized repair to your iPhone, you will have to
    seek assistance elsewhere.
    Google or ifixit.com may provide some direction, but you can
    get no help here per Terms of Service. Sorry to tell you this,
    but it is what it is.

  • My iphone 4s automatically getting turned off (blank black screen) and not getting started until full battery discharge, after updating to ios 8.0.1

    My iphone 4s automatically getting turned off (blank black screen) and not getting started until full battery discharge. Even on long pressing power button - screen doesn't showing anything - not even "needs charging logo".
    This is happening only since I have updated to new ios version (ios 8.1).
    Is there anyone facing similar issue?? Any suggestion?!?

    Hi jayla_mora, 
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    It sounds like your iPhone screen is going blank and not responding. 
    You may find the tips in this article useful for troubleshooting this behavior:

  • Can a one please help me turn off auto play for Facebook the option is no longer in my  General settings  why is this ?

    Can a one please help me turn off auto play for Facebook the option is no longer in my  General settings  why is this ?

    And yet the link you posted only tells you how to do it on the Facebook App for Android. Nothing about the Facebook page is mentioned at all, or how to do it on an iPhone.
    With that said, and assuming you have the most up to date version of the Facebook App, you can now turn the auto play feature Off within the Facebook App itself.  Tap on the "More" icon on the bottom right, then scroll down to Settings->Videos and Photos->Auto Play. If Smart auto-Play is on turn it off. Then you can set the check mark on "Never Play Videos Automatically" which is the same as Off.

  • IPhone 3gs turns off while having 60-80% battery

    hello, iphone 3gs turns off while there is enough battery to be consumed. Round about 60 to 80 percent battery is more enough to keep alive an iphone for a whole day long. what suggestion you recommend, help asap......

    You could try to disconnect and after a few minutes reconnect the battery. That theoretically resets the phone BIOS and is supposed to help regarding the reboot issue (see post by NIKKOH007) http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2471090&start=2055&tstart=30
    Or replace the battery altogether with a newer, iOS 4 compatible battery. At iFixit.com they have come to the conclusion that not all batteries in the 3GS are necessarily iOS4.x compatible or a battery defect may be exposed after updating.

  • While talking on my Iphone, is there a way from having it turn off while in my pocket

    While talking on my Iphone, is there a way from having it turn off while in my pocket?

    Huh? You're post doesn't make a lot of sense. Are you talking on your phone? Or is it in your pocket? Are you using a headphone? Do you mean the entire phone is turning off? Or do you just mean the call is ending?
    Try locking the screen by tapping the power button on the top right of the phone before you put it in your pocket.

    Do you have backups of all the data on the startup drive? If not, do nothing else until you've backed up that data, if you still can.
