  • Iphone sound stopped working after ios 6.0 update

    My 4s was working fine until I updated to 6.0.  After that, my sound stopped working.  If I plug in headphones it works, but as soon as I unplug it stops.  When I plug into my USB sync cable it works, but when I unplug it stops working. I updated through user settings over wifi and not through itunes sync if that makes any difference.  I know other people are experiencing similar problems.  Any help would be appreciated.

    Yes rev, I tried the dock cleaning as well, I didn't help me either. I read and tried everything others did-no luck. I'm guessing these are the facts, either it will quietly get fixed on an update or the % of phones with the problem compared to those that don't doesn't warrant attention and is better addressed through Apple by just replacing it..if it's still under warranty.

    Hey Kirby17,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you are not getting any sound from the speaker, follow this article.
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.
    Have a nice day,
    Mario

  • Iphone 4S sound issue - sound stops working after a few minutes

    The sound on my iphone 4S stops working after a couple of minutes, including both the headphones and the loudspeaker. If I unplug the headphones and replug them in, the sound starts to work again, but only for a few minutes until it conks out again. How can I fix this problem?

    Any problem when connected to another wi-fi network besides your own?
    The only additonal troubleshooting options after powering the iPhone off and on, an iPhone reset, and resetting network settings on the iPhone is restoring the iPhone with iTunes from the iPhone's backup and/or restoring with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the backup.
    If no change after restoring as a new iPhone or not from the backup - the same when connected to any wi-fi network besides your own as well as not being able to maintain internet access when connected to your carrier's cellular network, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

  • Iphone 3Gs phone sounds stop working at random.

    I have an Iphone 3Gs and am having some issues with the phone sounds. I can lock the phone after its been working perfectly and come back to it in a few minutes and the unlock sound will be gone, the key sounds dont work and any apps that have sound will not put out any sound. The phone is never set to silent and the volume levels are always around the same level, also if I open the ipod the tracks will play but there will be no sound through the phone or the headphones/speakers and the onscreen volume level slider does not appear.
    During this issue the alarm will still sound out and the ringer still rings and the sms tone will still sound.
    I can rectify this by switching the phone of and on but this is happening more and more and Im sorry for seeming to over the top but this is a huge inconvenience and shouldnt happen in the first place.
    Is there a reason this happens and is there anything I can do to stop it happening again?

    I have the exact same problem.. Just got a brand new 3GS today, after my old one was replaced.
    The sounds stops working and at some occasions the speaker will play some strange sounds. Even noticed that when my gf tried calling the phone, it gave away a "phone to close to speaker-sound". If you know what i mean.
    I have no idea what to do, anyone?

  • My iPhone 5 stopped working with my 2015 Subaru Outback after the iOS 8.1.3 update

    My iPhone 5 stopped working with the USB connector on my 2015 Subaru Outback. The phone will still charge, but the message is something like "this iPhone will not work with this accessory". Is there a fix being made? I saw others post with issues with the latest update. It worked fine with the prior iOS version 8.1.2

    Hello bballfan85,
    It sounds like your getting an error message that the iPhone isn't going to work with your Subaru all of a sudden over USB. I would use these troubleshooting steps from this article, named:
    If you need help with iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch accessories
    Update your software
    Install the latest version of iOS. You can see which version is on your iPhone by going to the About screen.Disconnect and inspect the accessory, then restart your device
    Disconnect the accessory and turn it off, if possible.
    Inspect the connection between the accessory and device and make sure that no debris or other damage is present.
    Restart your iOS device by turning it off, then back on. When the Home screen appears, reconnect the accessory.
    Try a different device
    Make sure the issue is with the accessory, if possible. Always use an identical or similar, compatible device with the accessory you're troubleshooting.
    If there's static coming from the left audio channel when you use headphones, try connecting the headphones to a similar device.
    If the device isn't syncing when connected to the dock, connect it directly to the computer using the Apple 30-pin to USB Cable or try another USB port.
    If you're using Lightning to 30-pin Adapter in a connection chain, try using the same adapter on a similar or identical device.
    Restore iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
    Restore your iOS device. You should rarely need to use this step with an accessory issue. If the issue only affects a third-party accessory, contact the manufacturer before restoring the device.
    These steps will help you troubleshoot the iPhone side of the equation.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • IPhone 4 stop working with ios 6.1

    iPhone 4 stopped working with ios 6.1, visited apple first time, restored phone and worked, less than 24 hours later stopped working again, back to the store, I told iPhone is out of warranty and they'll replace for $150. iPhone worked fine with previous version, no problem at all. Asked to restore to the previous software version, told can't be done. Why should I pay for a damage caused by a software update. Tec claims that ios 6.1 will not work with my phone because it discovered some hardware malfunction, possible the home button. They can't repair. suggested to go to a third party. I'm a satisfied Apple product user for many years. What happened? Any welp out there?

    Hey.. I have had this issue since yesterday afternoon.. Some people are saying to keep restoring again and again until it finally goes through.. I have done so like 10 times on my MAC and then I used my husband's PC and tried it 4 times.. No success.. I called apple support, but no help came from there at the end, and the only thing they were able to suggest to me is to sell me a new phone just like mine for a discounted price.. **** NO
    Anyways after about 18h of search and stress I came across this link:
    http://techglobex.blogspot.com/2012/06/downgrade-from-ios-6-beta-firmware-to.htm l
    That will only make it possibe to go backward.. You will end up back with the IOS 5, but at least you will have a working phone and it will bring back all your contacts and everything else that you ever had backed up on icloud and on your computer. There might be descripencies with the Applications but again this is an issue easily solved, you can always download them back.
    Two more things: One, you do not have to download the old version of the itunes, the newest version worked for me without any issues
    When choosing to download the older IOS 5.1.1, you will need to figure out whether your carrier is GSM or CDMA but you can easily google this info online..
    Well hope that will work for you like it did for me

  • Regarding Facetime on my Ipad. I get started on a call and after 10 or 15 minutes I cannot hear whom I am talking to. They can still hear me and I still have picture on the screen but my sound stops working.

    Why can't we use Acrobat Pro for mobile devices? Save a whole lot of headaches!!! Now I have to return this subscription.

  • My sound stopped working on my HP dv6-1280us

    Its only a couple of months old but my sound stopped working.  I don't know much about laptops but here is what I do know.
    It stopped working around 10 days ago.  At first there was no sound but I could move the volume up and down with the quicklaunch pad and the mute button would go from red to blue when touched.  I checked to make sure nothing was muted and everything seemed to be fine.
    I googled the problem and it said to do a system restoration back before it stopped working.  I tried several times and it went through the process but then when it rebooted it said that it didn't work and that none of the settings have worked.
    Then a couple of hours ago I noticed the mute button is now red and won't change to blue the volume slider is not responding to touch either.
    Then I saw a post on here that said to go to system recovery and reinstall the sound drived (IDT High Definition CODEC) and I did and it said it did but it didn't fix the problem.
    I am lost and would love some help if anyone has any ideas?  please?
    Thanks
    Amy

    I got some help from a friend and her advice worked.  I thought I would post this for others having trouble
    Well I guess you could try this it would not hurt. Assuming you use Windows that is.
    Go to run and type services.msc when the box pops up scroll down to Windows Audio and double click. Make sure that the service is started.

  • I have a problem with my iPhone 5 stopped working the sleep / power and simultaneously refused to obey the HOME button. I can not use either one or the other. I can not enable or disable the device, display lights up when you plug the charger. same displa

    I have a problem with my iPhone 5 stopped working the sleep / power and simultaneously refused to obey the HOME button. I can not use either one or the other. I can not enable or disable the device, display lights up when you plug the charger. same display works fine as it is surprising. or maybe someone knows what is the reason for this? is there any way to solve this problem?

    More than likely its a hardware issue, I have never encountered such a problem and best bet is to just go get it replaced. If you have insurance on your device apple will replace it as long as there was no water damage, if you dont have insurance they will charge $200 more or less. Hope you get it fixed

  • I updated my ipad and the sound stopped working.

    I updated my ipad to IOS 8.1.and the sound stopped working. My sidebar buttons say soundeffects or soundeffects mute when I press them. On my control panel there is no sound bar. As you can see in this screenshot it is not showing a sound bar to adjust volume. HELP?!

    Update: Last night, I cleaned my headphone port & docking port. Reset Network Settings & General Reset all settings & reset ipad. Didn't work immediately & had some setbacks. I decided to wait to do the restore factory default for the next day, this morning. I decided to test the sound before proceeding. My sound is working correctly now & didn't need to resort to the restore factory default. All of the above worked but perhaps needed over night to really dry the rubbing alcohol used to clean the ports.?
    sound is working. Thanks so much for your help Diavonex!

  • My iPhone just stopped working. I've tried charging it and turning it on and nothing works.

    Hello, my iPhone recently stopped working - I tried plugging it up to charge and that hasn't worked. I even took it out of the case. It still won't turn on. Is there any solutions?

    See Here for  >  Frozen or unresponsive iPhone
    Try this First... No Data will be Lost...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    Wait for the Apple logo to Appear...
    Usually takes about 15 - 20 Seconds... ( But can take Longer...)
    Release the Buttons...
