IPhone4s will not play music - continuously shuffles
My iPhone4 will not play any music. When I select a song, it goes to the screen for the song to play and it immediately goes straight back to the list of songs. If I hit shuffle, it just continously shuffles, shuffles, shuffles, then goes back to the list of songs. I have cut the phone on and off numerous times and it still continues to do this. I have tried tapping the album art and that doesn't work. I have turned off shuffle and that doesn't work. I do not have shake to shuffle selected in my settings. Help!
Hi mimibrown5,
In my experience, the songs that are skipping may not have transferred over to your iPhone correctly. I would advise you to uncheck the "Sync Music" checkbox in iTunes, and apply the changes (so there is ultimately no music syncing to your iPhone).
Once you have done that, recheck the "Sync Music" checkbox, and apply the changes once more. This will instruct iTunes to completely remove all music from your iPhone, and then copy the files once more. If you have a large amount of music, this initial sync may take a while.
If the above does not resolve your issue, see the following articles:

IHome iA91 will not play music from iPhone 4
Hey everybody,
I'm having an issue that seems to be fairly common, but lacks a solid solution.
Whenever I dock my iPhone 4, the iHome iA91 will not play music. My iPhone continues to play music through its own speakers, but will not use the iHome's speakers. A message also pops up on my phone saying, "This Accessory is Not Supported by iPhone," even though the iHome iA91 lists the iPhone 4 as compatible. On top of that, it worked when I first got the iHome and now it suddenly will not play my phone. The volume bar on the iPhone also randomly disappears and returns while it's docked.
I have tried resetting my phone (home+power), I have restored my phone to stock, I have power cycled the iHome, all to no avail. The iHome speakers will still play the radio and alarms work as usual, and my phone charges without issues.
I'm getting quite frustrated and am desperately seeking an answer. Thanks in advance to everyone who reads or replies.Hi Adam,
Try the steps mentioned below to resolve the issue:
1. Disconnect iPhone from Docking System, restart both the System and the iPhone and then reconnect iPhone to the System.
2. If this didn't helps, try resetting both the units. You can reset the Docking System by pressing RESET at base using pin pointed object like paper clip.
3. Also, try updating iPhone and to latest version and check if that helps.
NOTE: If iPhone has the case or cover, the device may not be set correctly. Remove the case or cover from the iPhone and set the device again.
If my post answers your question, please mark it as "Accepted Solution".
Thank you for your post. -
My iPhone 4s has been replaced at least 4 times within a year and nobody at the genius bar seems to know what's wrong but every time I plugy phone into my cable that connects my iPhone to the stero in my car and when I disconnect it, my iPhone think its in dock mode and will not play music or sounds with our being plugged into a dock. However it will occasionally make sounds when a text comes in but that's about it. I really don't know why this happens or how to fix it, HELP!!

Need assistance with recent upgrade. I installed 6.1.2 and now my iPad is sluggish and will not play music from iTunes.

My 30-pin dock is connected to my lightning to 30-pin connector which is connected to my iPod touch 5g. But my iPod will only charge, and will not play music through my dock, only through the iPod's internal speaker. Help please!
Have you tried resetting both the iPod and dock? To reset the iPod, press and hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
To reset the dock, unplug it and plug it back in.

My iPhone will not play music, and says it's connected to a dock when it's not. Help?
My iPhone will not play music. Whenever I try to play music through the speakers on my iPhone it won't let me adjust the volume (like it's connected to a dock) and when I do connect it to a dock, the music plays through the iPhone speakers. Also I've tried just listening to my music through earphones and it plays for around 6 seconds then it goes back to like it's connected to a dock. Help? I've tried turning it off and on, restarting it and even restoring it and nothing's worked.
It says this when not connected to the dock. His dock is an ihome which isn't an official Apple dock. I think my next step is to take the thing in to an Apple store.

My iPhone 4S will not play music out loud. I can't turn sound up or down, it doesn't even give me the option. I think that it thinks its docked, I've tried to blow air in it, I've tried compressed air with no luck.
Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if fixed. If not, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean again, very well with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

My Macbook Air will not play music from the speakers
My Macbook Air will not play music from the speakers and the institutions says that it can only play sound out of earphones.

Ipod touch will not play music. It will play though with headphones in and when attached to dock. Any suggestions?
If you have not yet restored the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod try that. If stil have the problem you very likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

My iPad will not play music or videos in iTunes or my music app what do I need to do to fix this?
Music plays in the Music app - not iTunes. Videos play in the Videos App - not in the Music App. Is that what you are doing? If you are using the correct apps for the appropriate content - quit the apps and restart.
Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button. -
hi, my brand new iphone 4 will not play music through my music app but it will play videos through youtube and will play the sounds throught my games and will play text tones and facetime ect. what is wrong?
At least I'm not the only one with the issue. I was looking it up so see if others had the same problem and found a bunch of posts about it. I'm assuming it's not the phone then, it's the software. Should I bring it to the Apple Store? Replacing the phone seems stupid, because the phone isn't really the problem. It's the software! Maybe the iOS 5.0.2 will fix it??? I don't really want to wait though, it's a pain. If a lot of people have this issue it should get Apple's attention. They need to do something to fix it, ASAP!

TS1630 My phone will not ring for calls or text messages. It also will not play music out loud.
My phone will not ring for messages or texts. It also will not play music outloud. I know it's not the speakers because it does make noise when I type in my password and sometimes when I am in the settings for the ringtone. It will not make the message sounds in settings. With headphones it makes noise. I don't know what to do and I've tried all the settings. Has this happened to anyone else? The silence key on the side is off. I've tried restarting it, but it does not work. Sometimes it will make noise when I am typing, but only a few times. I haven't dropped it and I have an otterbox, so I don't know what would cause it to do this...?
Everyone you are way over thinking this as did i at first. My wife had the same issue. there is i switch right above the volume button as demonstrated on this link. its designed for lets say you into a class or meeting you can switch the phone to silent quck and easy.

X6 will not play music out loud when i use music p...
Hi
i was wondering if anyone could help me , ive just got a nokia x6 as a upgrade , i myself have a blackberry so i gave this to my dad however being parents do not know what there doing with a touch screen phone, this x6 will not play music out loud through the speakers , could he have changed anything on the phone ?? he told me this once and i tryed it and it worked but i have recently tryed the phone again and now the music will not play out loud through the speakers can anyone help?????bazyeo wrote:
@steve_p: The point I am trying to make is your statement that the X6 has an annoying bug where the music player goes to near silent through the loud speakers. Just because it affects some phones but not all does not mean it is a bug. If it was a bug it would affect all phones not just some...
I do NOT agree with your logic at all. According to your reasoning every single X6 on the planet has to suffer a particular issue before that problem can then be termed a 'bug'. Taking that arguement to its ultimate conclusion you would state that the X6 has never suffered any bugs what-so-ever. I'm sorry I do NOT agree. I note you live in Australia, a totally different market from UK where I happen to be, as chanchan has stated there are hundreds of different product codes that cover just the X6 let alone the different hardware platforms RM559 & RM551 plus the 3 different mass storage sizes I mentioned above. Different batches of handsets and different market areas can suffer from different issues that won't necessarily be the same. I would class a bug as an issue that affects more than 1 person or a handful of people. Let's agree to disagree eh?

Agreed. Hence my comments above.

I'm here to help people. If someone has an issue with their Nokia phone that I have had experience with or that I have found a solution to then I will help if I can. I don't have to justify myself to you by providing documented evidence and digging up proofs. Again I don't really care about my credibility to you either... people can see my full post history all the way back to 2005 when I first joined and they can judge for themselves if I my advice is worth taking, or not.

Please enlighten me by way of PM to my past misdemeanours and I will happily discuss them with you, again via PM, I think this poor thread has been spammed to death as it stands. Can I also please ask that in the future if you have any problems with my posts and you think that I am deliberately trying to mislead or post falsehoods that you notify a moderator, or contact me via PM. Quite frankly, I don't like your tone or attacking nature and I don't like being typecast as a liar or worse an uninformed idiot and I'll thank you not to point accusations my way again. If, however, you have another point of view to my own and can put that down in a civil way then I'll happily respond. I will leave it there for now and I will do my best not to post in this thread again, unless to give further help to the original poster.

My iphone will not play music on dock or car adaptor, but will charge. It seems to have started after the last upgrade.
Slight water damage on electronic equipment is like being slightly pregnant
It either is or it isn't and your iPhone is water damaged
Since you that turned it on prior to drying it the damage is done now
Take to Apple and pay for a replacement
