Ipod classic - no sound from headphones or dock

Hi,
I have an ipod classic and it has stopped outputting audio on both the headphone socket and the dock socket.  Any ideas how I can sort this out?  Or is it just dead?
Thanks

Thanks for your reply
Do you mean take it to a physical store?  The closest one I have is just over an hours drive away, if they'll look at it for me though I guess it's worth it.
Thanks

  • Ipod classic no sound from headphones

    My Ipod classic has no sound from the headphones?

    Hey carnabylane,
    Thanks for the question. To isolate the issue further, does it persist with a different set of headphones? If so, lets complete some troubleshooting with your iPod:

  • HT1459 my  4th generation ipod only has sound with headphones

    my 4th generation ipod only has sound with headphones how can i fix this problem

    - Try inserting/removing the headphone plug at least a dozen time.
    - Cleanout/blowout the headphone jack
    - Reset the iPod. 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 settings/new iPod
    If still problem that indicates a hardware problem. Likely the headphone jack is bad.

  • Low and unclear sound from headphone HP Pavilion G6 2228tu

    laptop hp pavillion g6 2228TU  OS windows 8 pro 64 bit
    every thing was working fine.. but from last 2-3 days i faced a problem of low and cracking sound from headphone ..
    laptop speraker are working fine .. but when I connect headphone to audio port .. sounds comes out to be very low and unclear.
    I tried headphone with my desktop and mobile but it was working fine.
    I called HP custmor support.. they gave a link of sound driver.. i updated sound driver but no solution comes out..

    Hello Deepak-Kumar,
    You’re having a problem with the sound not be very loud.
    Go to device manager and uninstall the IDT audio.
    Do not restart the computer.
    Now install the updated sound driver.
    Since it has not been to long since the problem started, you can run a system restore.
    This will take the system back to when everything was working correctly without affecting your personal files.
    Here is a link on how to do a restore.
    Let me know how everything goes.
    Have a good day.

  • Are the newer ipod classics (80GB and above) compatible with docks for the older ipod classics (20GB)?)

    are the newer ipod classics (80GB and above) compatible with docks for the older ipod classics (20GB)?)

    I have an iPod Touch 2 with iOS 4.2.1.  This is the highest version that works on this device.  I checked it once and it had to do with iOS 4.3 and above only supporting the higher RAM CPUs on newer devices.
    Apple does make it harder than it needs to be.  There still remain a number of apps available on iTunes that will work but they are hard to find because you must manually look at each app specs to see if the app supports an iOS below 4.3
    App backups are your friend since iTunes has no way to keep older version of apps.

  • I bought an iPod classic in Japan from an apple store...

    I bought an iPod classic in Japan from an apple store. I still have the reciept but obviously it is in japanese. There are 3 or 4 dead pixels stuck on the iPod screen. If I take it back to an apple store in the UK could I have it fixed? The iPod is less than a year old.
    Thanks,
    TehTom

    If it was purchased less than 14 days ago, you can return it to the store for a full refund and buy a white one.  Otherwise, no, you can't exchange it.

  • My iPod classic was stolen from my car is there away to recover it

    My iPod Classic was stolen from my car is there away to use iTunes to recovery it ?

    The only way that you can track it, is if you had find my iPhone app on, and it needs to be connected to a wi-fi network.  You should change your iTunes password as soon as possible. 

  • No Sound From Headphone Jack, Only Internal Speakers working in Macbook Pro A1278

    Hello, the internal speakers of Macbook Pro A1278 OSX 10.7.5 are working perfectly, but no sound from headphones or external speakers when plugged in. Headphones/speakers recognized when plugged in, shown by System Preferences/Sound, and since the sound stops from internal speakers when headphones/speakers are plugged in. No red light seen coming from headphone jack, as I read in other posts. The problem began after a cable was connected between computer and stereo system. Maybe overloaded the sound card and burned out a connection? Wondering if you think that the sound card needs to be replaced or is there another solution possible? Thank you.

    Hello JohnBoarkman,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that you hear no sound from your accessory when you connect to your headphone jack. My first troubleshooting suggestion for this situation would be resetting the NVRAM on your Mac. Please use the instructions in the attached article to complete this process and let me know if the issue continues.

    Have a great day,

    My ipod classic got knocked off it"s dock by my cat.  Now no matter what I do I only get the sad face with the exclamation point, even when I try to charge it.  Is it hopeless?

    Yes, it's likely that the iPod's hard drive is damaged and is in need of replacement.

  • My new iPod Classic doesn't 'wake' when my docking station switches on (alarm setting)

    My new iPod Classic doesn't 'wake' when my docking station switches on (alarm setting).
    My old iPod Classic never ever let me down, and I used it in the docking station every working day for two years.
    But this new iPod Classic has let me down three times just this week!
    Any clues?

    While the iPod is connected to your iTunes, look (in iTunes) on the Device/Podcasts pane (tab) and make sure the Sync Podcasts option has been selected (there should be a tick in the box).

  • HT1363 why is my ipod classic ejecting itself from my laptop?

    why is my ipod classic ejecting itself from my laptop?

    Is Enable Disk Use ticked from under the iPod's Summary tab?  Does this happen when you plug the iPod into another available USB port?
    Are there any other USB devices that are plugged in?

  • I just purchased a 120gb iPod classic 6th generation from a friend. I have the latest iTunes installed and the software on the iPod is also current. My problem is whenever I'm syncing the iPod and iTunes freezes between the 250- 300th song...

    I just purchased a 120gb iPod classic 6th generation from a friend. I have the latest iTunes installed and the software on the iPod is also current. My problem is whenever I'm syncing the iPod and iTunes freezes between the 250- 300th song... I have to manually reset the iPod for the iTunes to run correctly, but then my music isn't added and iTunes tells me I have to restore the iPod... I've done this numerous times only to no avail... Someone please help!!!

    Here is what worked for me:
      My usb hub, being usb2, was too fast. I moved the wire to a usb port directory on my pc. That is a usb1 port which is slow enough to run your snyc.

  • Ipod classic sudden sound distortion from dock connector only

    I have an ipod classic 160gb 7th generation.  When I docked it one day the sound was very distorted and unplayable.  This happens in different docking stations yet they play with other ipods.  I can still sync and charge (through some but not all chargers) and can play through headphones.   
    I have reset, restored, turned the EQ off and still no change.  Any help /advice?  not under warranty
    thx

  • TS1382 IPOD Classic "clicking" sound - computer won't recognize it now

    IPOD Classic. Was transferring files from iTunes and started hearing a "clicking" sound from iPod. Tried to disconnect. Computer said safe to do so but iPod screen never said ok. iTunes and computer won't recognize it now.Is clicking a hard drive failure? Also when I try to turn it on all I get is the "go to apple support url". Can`t get to any menu screen.

    Thanks...it sounded like that from other things I read. Appreciate the response.

  • IPod classic poor sound quality

    Hi,
    I have a three year old iPod classic, and have noticed over the last month an issue with the sound. The sound quality is extremely poor and static sounding, like an am radio station whenever I use ANY setting on the equalizer. When the equalizer is set to off, the sound is normal again. This happens both with earphones and a dock with speakers.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks in advance!
