Ipod isnt working through headphone jack.

My ipod touch isnt working through the headphone jack. Simply said. How much will it cost to get something like that fixed? It works on the speakers inside the ipod, and everything with it is fine aswell. Its just the darn headphone jack.

It roughly will cost you about $50 in labor plus the cost of the part. you can check around for repair shop prices but this is about the normal price for this type of repair. if you like to try fixing it yourself check out youtube videos. if your not handy on working on electronics I would highly suggest that you let a professional do it.

Ipod touch 4g, music isnt working through headphones

This problem just recently started happening. I would plug my headphones into my ipod touch, and the music plays outloud. I have tried many things, and it still doesnt work. I have tried:
~restoring
~restarting
~new headphones
~plugging headphones into old ipod (they work)
and they still dont seem to work.. Would anyone know what might be wrong?

Likely a problem with the headphone jack. I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store or call AppleCare. You 4g iPod is still in warranty.

Do i have to send my iPod in if the headphone jack isn't working?

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".
- 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.

HP Pavilion 15-p027ne, Audio working through headphones/earphones but not through speakers

HP Pavilion 15-p027ne:
Audio working through headphones/earphones but not through speakers.
I downgraded from windows 8.1 to Windows 7 (64-bit) and the problem is still not resolved.
Appreciate any troubleshooting tips.
Thanks.

Hi there @donimuha
Welcome to the HP Support Forums! It is a great place to find the help you need, both from other users, HP experts and other support personnel.
I understand that you are getting sound from the headphones/earplugs but not from the system speakers. I am happy to assist you with this.
As the sound is working through the audio jack, I will assume for now that the audio driver is fine. Please check through the following page, which is very comprehensive. If you are still having a problem it is possibly a hardware issue with the speakers.
No Sound from the Speakers (Windows 7)
Let me know if that works for you.

Probably dead if you have tried to charge it.
You should never try to charge or turn on a wet electronic device.
You should let it dry for a week or so, then try.

Ipod nano 7th generation Headphones jack dented :(

ipod nano 7th generation Headphones jack dented help? how much does it cost to un-dent it? is it even possible? I can't put my headphones in. :((

This is rediculasly common for this device. Hopefully Apple gets the design right next time around by moving the earphone jack ever so slightly towards the center.
Anyway, are there any suggustions for moving it back properly yourself?

IPod Touch 5th gen headphone jack and battery not working properly

Yesterday my iPod touch 5th gen's battery started draning at an incredible rate. Won't last longer then 1 or 2 hours now. And add onto it the headphone jack stopped working properly. It's now only plays in one ear, it's all static over the sound it's supposed to play. I baby my iPod. This all happened out of the blue. What do I do to fix it?

Saraa22 , the same recommendation was given over a year earlier:
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".
- 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.

If anyone has this same problem with their Ipod touch 5g headphone jack. I found a way to fix it. I did everything of the above but nothing actually worked . But this is what worked!
First reset your Ipod by pressing down the on/off button and the home button at the same time for 10 seconds until you see the apple icon
Then after it turns back on : Go to settings then press on general. Then press on accessibility and scroll down and make sure MONO AUDIO is on!
This will definitely fix the problem.

Will apple replace my ipod touch since the headphone jack no longer works properly?

It is still under warranty and there was no damage to it from anyone. The headphone jack is faulty and it is a hardware problem not user damage

If they determine it to defective, then they will replace it.

Constant static through headphone jack

Playing audio through the Mac's own speakers - no problem, but audio through the headphone jack = irritating static / whitenoise as well as the audio, the right side worse than the left.
I tried with a number of different headphones and speakers through the jack, which showed that the problem wasn't the headphones. This is an 18 month old iMac.
When I took the Mac to an authorised repairer to get the optical drive replaced recently, I reported the problem with the headphone jack, and they replaced the wire between the motherboard and the jack thinking that would fix the issue, but it hasn't. They suggest replacing the whole motherboard (for a further outrageous cost (I'm no loner in a warranty period)). An earlier discussion in the community thought the problem could be resolved with a grounding adpater on the power cord, but in Australia we don't have that problem because all power is grounded.
Any advice on what exactly the problem is? The repairers couldn't say, but I note that a number of people have reported this issue but not posted any successful fixes. Any suggestions?

you could also try a reset.
PUSH AND HOLD the middle button and the menu button AT THE SAME TIME for 10 seconds.. this may take a few trys and it works best if hooked to power..
you could also try a restore but if you do backup your information because it will erase your ipod

!!! HELP: Connect nano to stereo through headphone jack?

Is it possible to connect an ipod nano to a stereo system through the audio minijack/headphone jack? I was sure it was possible, but now it doesnt seem like it.. I've got a nano, but havent opened it yet (its my birthday present..) and nearly the whole point of me getting it was because I wanted to play it through the stereo!! Im seriously considering returning it! Isn't there an adapter or something, other than those crappy 3rd party fm/cd/tape ones that you can use?? do you HAVE to get a dock or some expensive thing?
I know that they left out the a/v jack on the nano but I thouhgt that was mostly for connecting to a tv and you could use headphone jack for just audio.. im so bummed out. my mom's been calling stores for me and asking them and they say it's not possible. grrrhh
please let me know if there is some way..!!!!

I know, tried it and it worked
shows them stupid store staff who dont know sh*te about the things theyre selling!
I LOOVVEEE my nano so far! It ROCKKSS!!! <3 <3
thanks you guys + for the replies

No sound through headphone jack even though it's been replaced...

I'm hoping someone has some info, i've rang the support line three times and have got nowhere!
Basically, i have an ipod 4th gen Nano 16gb and a few weeks ago i suddenly got no sound coming through my headphones or speakers. I was quoted for a headphone jack repair, had it done and when i reeived it back the unit was still not working and it was suggested that i have a problem with the logic board.
However, this work was not carried out by Apple so i'm not sure how this wouls affect my chances of them repairing/repplacing.
The Nano is also out of warranty.
My ipod only gets occasional use, and i've never had any issues with it before or dropped/damaged it in any way.
Basically i was just wondering if anyone has any thoughts as to when i go to the Genius Bar whether they would replace my ipod even tough it is out of warranty. I only ask because a similar thing happened to my friend and his was replaced...

Try the Microsoft audio fixit.
There were no BIOS updates related to udio issues released for your notebook.
What is the service pack level of your Windows 7 OS?
Have you been installing Windows updates?
Did this issue just begin recently and did it occur after a Windows update was applied?
Post your results here please.

IPod wont play through headphones.

I have an iPod Nano 5th generation, and it will not play music through the headphones. I have tried turning it on and off, turning up and down the volume, and plugging and unplugging the headphones. Nothing seems to work! Please help!

Did you try the headphones with some other device, to make sure they are working properly?
If the headphones are working fine, and you already tried doing a Restore, the most likely cause is that the headphones jack has become faulty.

No sound through headphone jack, no mechanical problem, what to do?

I have verified through resetting my new iPad, that there is noe mechanical problem with my headphone jack. it works fine until I reinstall my backup. Thus it is a software issue, byt what? There is no selection for output jack problems in support, just look at the menu options for posting on iPad. Nothing on connections like the headphone jack. Strange.

Steinar-
Your problem may be due to a software issue, but it is not normal. If you are near an Apple Store, demonstrate it to an Apple Store Genius. If the Genius can not fix it, you may get a replacement iPad.
One thing you can try while the headphone jack is not working, is to reset (reboot) the iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Resetting this way will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.
