Ipod is playing music out of the headphones and the speakers at the same

My ipod is playing music out of the headphones and the speakers at the same time and I can't figure out why. I reconnect the headphones and it still plays out of both...It is like it doesn't recognize that there are headphones plugged in, but yet it still plays out of them. Help would be appreciated. And the headphones are all the way plugged in

Ah my ipod is not the only one doing this obviously...i thought i was alone in this world...it still has this problem after an entire month...and no this problem has nothing to do with my computer...although sometimes plugging in the ipod to the computer eliminates the problem for a while.
Sometimes i listen to it at the loud volume that the other poster is talking about through the headphones and it will randomly recognize the headphones after about 30-60 minutes usually. but then the next day it will have the same problem

    My iPod Touch 5th Generation won't play music out loud. Why and what can i do to 'fix' it?

    If you mean the headphones work but the speaker does not:
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be 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.
    - 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
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

  • I recently purchased a 7th Gen iPod nano which I have downloaded my music to. However, when I try to play this it is showing on the iPod as play but I am getting no sound through. I have checked the headphones and reset it. Any ideas?

    Haha I had the exact same problem. Once I had tried it like 4 different pairs of headphones i was ready to give my iPod back. Then I tried pushing the headphones in further and proceeded to kick myself. I seems a lot of people have the same problem, post it on here and realise a few minutes later.

  • The volume on my iPhone 5c is really low when playing music out loud.

    When I am playing music out loud it is far too quiet. It is actually louder when I put headphones in without putting them in my hear than when I just play music out loud. What could be wrong? It's really annoying me.

    Hello, asialeighx.

  • Cannot Play Music Out of My Ipod Stereo

    Hello.
    I have a major problem. If anyone can shed light onto this problem it would be much appreciated.
    I have a Phillips stereo which is made for Ipod, and it also acts like a docking station which chrages the ipod aswell, now I had an Ipod classic before I got an ipod touch which this stereo docked and charged perfectly. It also played music from the Ipod, you know stuff which it's supposed to do as a stereo.
    However, when I got my Ipod touch it wouldn't do anything with it. It registers on screen that the ipod is docked and the speakers start sounding like they're about to play, but the ipod doesnt seem to want to let the stereo play it's music, it would rather play it out of it's inbuilt speakers. The ipod doesnt seem to register that it's docked and won't charge while docked on the stereo.
    It won't play music out of it or charge, which is becoming increasingly annoying, I'v tried the settings and can't find anything in the Ipod's setting which may cause a problem.
    The reason why I think it's the ipod is because when I turn the stereo onto a different option such as CD, and put the Ipod onto the dock it registers as playing the Ipod and instantly switches to the ipod option---which it's supposed to do if working properly. Not to mention it played the classic perfectly and seems to be just having problems with the touch.
    I'v also tried turning the ipod on and off while docked and still nothing worked.
    Any Help is appreciate or advice.
    Thanks

    Actually, the page you've linked to does not mention the Touch at all - yes, it mentions the iPhone, which is almost the same as a Touch. But it doesn't mention the Touch. I wonder why! In addition, a link on that page mentions downloading more information on the product as a pdf document, but the link doesn't work!
    I followed some links from there to other pages and notice that on this page:
    http://www.p4c.philips.com/cgi-bin/dcbint/faqview.pl?ctn=DCM278%2F37&dct=QAC&newtmpl=1&refdisplay=HAV_GENERAL_IPOD_SUPPORTY&refnr=0075099&scy=US&slg=AEN there is a problem!
    At the top of this page, it states that your "Docking Entertainment System" is compatible with the iTouch 1st and 2nd generation. (Apple do not - and have never - produced anything called an iTouch!) But in the table below that, it is clearly stated that the iPod Touch 2nd generation will not play through the 30 pin Dock Connector, while the 1st generation Touch will.
    The same issue is apparent with the Classic, if you can work out which Classic you have! The list at the top says one thing, but the table says another - namely that the 120GB Classic doesn't work through the dock but the "older" 160GB Classic does. No mention of the newer 160GB Classic.
    Nowhere on that page is the iPhone mentioned.
    Why is there a difference you (probably) ask? Well, the first iPods were charged using a firewire connection (which happens to be 12 volts). Then, later iPods could be charged by either the firewire or by the USB connection (which is 5 volts). The more recent iPods and Touches can only be charged by the USB (5 volt) connection. Usually, this should simply mean that the later iPods and Touches can play through a dock connector but they would not be charged by the device. That's how both my Klipsch speaker dock works and the adaptor for my car stereo. I can play and control the iPod Touch, but it doesn't charge.
    So the long and short of this is, it's the Philips device which is the problem. Perhaps Philips have a fix for it. Klipsch did - they withdrew the RoomGroove from sale and only made it available again once it could charge the iPod Touch 2nd generation. (I have one which does charge and one that doesn't.)
    Specifically (in case I wasn't clear earlier), there was a change between the 1st and 2nd generation Touch. 1st gen can use firewire, 2nd gen cannot.

    Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
    Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
    If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
    Let us know how you get on.

    I want to use an old 3 GS iPhone that is no longer in service as a phone now as just an iPod to play music. When I connect the phone to the computer with iTunes running, iTunes says it can't connect to the device because it didn't get a valid response from the device. How can I get the system to recognize the phone, and let me rename it as my iPod, instead of my phone?
    As an aside, the current installed operating system on this old iPhone is 4.2.1, but that wasn't one of the selectable options in the operating system list dropdown below. Don't know if that makes any difference.

  • My Ipod touch plays music but every time I open an app that I have downloaded it closes immediately.  This started happening after updating to the latest version of Ipod software.

    My Ipod touch plays music but every time I open an app that I have downloaded it closes immediately.  This started happening after updating to the latest version of Ipod software.

    Here's a couple things to try:
    1. Reset the iPod by holding the sleep/wake button and home button at the same time for 10-15 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
    2. Uninstall and reinstall one of your purchased apps. Sometimes this can rectify the issue.
    3. Connect the iPod to iTunes and restore it. New system software usually resolves the issue. Make sure you sync before restoring because a restore removes the data from your iPod.
    Hope one of these works for you!

    I am also experiencing some problems with the new software version, I bought the Belkin TuneBase for my car 25 days ago it had been working fine since I upgraded my Ipod 2 days ago, you know that sometimes if you don't get good reception you can change to a diferent preseted station on this Belkin Transmitter but since this Ipod upgrade I can't change to a diferent station and also i can't disconect it like before because before it said you were ok to disconect and I'm afraid to return because perhaps afterall is a software problem.

  • 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.
