Ipod Nano 7 - No sound comes out of the headphones, and i tried different headphones... Can you help? What shall i do?

Hello ! No sound comes out of my ipod nano 7. I tried different headphones, all working on other players, but nothing comes out of the ipod nano. Of course I turned the volume up and made sure to press on play... Anybody to help me out? Thanks a lot !

The jack on the Nano is very tight when it is new. Push the headphones all the way in until the plastic on the headset jack is flush with the body of the Nano.

The problem occurred a few days after I had updated to iOS 7.02

Hey Tahls23!
I have an article that can help you troubleshoot that issue:
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting

No sound through stereo headset
Inspect the headset jack for debris and clean if necessary.
Connect the headset and make sure the connector is pushed in all the way.
Check the volume setting. Adjust the volume by pressing the volume up and down button on the left side of the iPhone.
If you are trying to listen to music and cannot hear any audio, make sure that the music on iPhone is not paused. Try squeezing the headset microphone to resume playback. Additionally, from the Home screen you can choose iPod > Now Playing, then tap Play.
Make sure the latest version of iTunes is installed on the computer that you are syncing the iPhone with (songs purchased from the iTunes Store using earlier versions of iTunes won't play).
Try another Apple headset (some third-party headsets require an adapter to be used with original iPhone).
Try a different song or video.
Check to see if the iPhone alert sounds or other iPhone sound effects exhibit the same audio issues.
Disconnect the headset from the iPhone and see if sound comes from the built-in speaker.
Take care, and thanks for visiting the Apple Support Communities.

I have to press my headphones in my 4s to use it, when i let go no sound comes out of the headphones. has anyone else had this problem??

just tried using my headphones for the first time while at the gym, i had to hold the headphones in and when id let go, no sound would come out of the headphones and the music would pause, has anyone else experienced this problem?? im assuming its a hardware problem?

nevermind, i had to press it in real hard for it to click down, was scared to do so before, didnt want to break it. UGH.

What do i do if my (a.) my itunes no longer detects my ipod, and (b.) no sound comes out of the headphone jack? The ipod still turns on, operates, and charges.

My ipod still works as far as powering up and operating is concerned, but it suddenly stopped outputting a signal through the sound jack. Also it no longer is detected by itunes in the source list.

It would be odd if both of those problems happened at the same time, since they seem unrelated (unless you dropped the iPod or got it wet or had some other accident).
Check the other end of both of those connections first. Try a different set of headphones. Try a different docking cable. Try a different USB port. Make sure the computer has been restarted since having this problem.
If it still powers up to the main screen, and seems to play songs (although you can't hear them), that probably means the hard drive is still working. That's good, because it's the most valuable part, and the part that usually breaks first (on an iPod that has a hard drive).
If you can't get it working, you might consider getting a broken iPod on eBay. Chances are good that it is broken because of a bad hard drive (unless the description makes it clear that it's another problem), and the other parts (except maybe the battery) are likely to be OK. You can then swap its bad hard drive for your iPod's hard drive. Be sure to get the same type of iPod, including the thickness, because the 5th gen iPod came in two thicknesses (corresponding to the thickness/capacity of the hard drive mechanism).
This is one web site with instructions for disassembly

But don't spend too much money on it. The hard drive may appear to be working now, but you never know when it might fail.

Clean out/blow out the headphone jack. Insert/remove the heaphone plug a dozen times or so
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.
- Power off and then back on the router
- Reset network settings: Settings>GeneralReset>Reset Network Settings
- iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
- iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a bad headphone jack
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours

A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

5g ipod nano 8GB no sound through ear buds or headphone jack only when docked.

5g ipod nano 8GB no sound through ear buds or headphone jack only when docked. any suggestions? i don't want to replace any of the parts inside if at all possible.
I have a 5th generation 8GB iPod nano. I bout it off of eBay in May of 2010 and it has worked great until now (Apr 2011). The 5th gen plays music through the headphone jack even when no ear buds are plugged in. I was using it one day and it just stopped. I tried resetting it manually and automatically and I tried reinstalling iTunes. Nothing has worked. Now it won't even play sound though the ear buds (or the aux hook up in my car), only when it is docked to my iHome. Does anyone have any suggestions? I dont want to replace the iPod or any parts inside if at all possible. ANY SUGGESTIONS ARE WELCOMED! THANKS!

Headphone jacks are only good for so many in and out usages. Usually its the headphone jack itsefl that goes bad first but sometimes it is the internal part. If you are lucky you can clean out the inside and get it to work.
These devices are not made to last for someone who actually has those headphones around there neck and acually uses there listening devices through out the day plugging it in and out. This is not in any way an Apple thing, it is a problem with many devices. The male ends tend to get dirty hanging around then scratch the female end when used. In fact, using higher end headphones you can really notice even the smallest particles of dust on the male end of plug when used, that is the small popping you might notice when the cord moves.
Hopefully its a problem on the male side of things.
I would recommend a person that wants to use headphones alot to keep a small 2 inch extension plugged into there device that can be replaced when it goes bad inplace of wearing out the original plug.
Again, this is not an Apple problem alone.

Sound no longer comes out of the headphones but will come out of the speakers on a m6-1035dx.

I am using Windows 7 64-bit on an HP Pavilion m6-1035dx. Sound still comes out of the main speakers but won't come out of the headphones. I tried the audio troubleshoot buttom and it couldn't detect the problem. I also tried two headphones and neither work. I didn't make any changes to my computer or really touch my computer from when it went from working to not working.

Sound no longer comes out of the speakers but will come out of the headphones on a m6-1035dx

I am using Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit on an HP Pavilion m6-1035dx. Sound still comes out of the headphones but won't come out of the main speakers. I tried the audio troubleshoot buttom and it couldn't detect the problem. I also tried two headphones and neither work. While i was trying to test sounds on skype application I could hear the sounds on speakers for a very short time. Please Help!!

Hi,
Try the following.
First, temporarily uninstall Skype and when this has completed, restart the notebook.
Next, download the IDT Audio installer on the link below and save it to your Downloads folder.
http://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp56501-57000/sp56953.exe
When done, open windows Control Panel, open Device Manager and open up Sound, Video and Game Controllers. Right click the IDT device and select Uninstall - you should also get a prompt to remove the current driver, tick the box to allow this and then proceed with the uninstall.
When complete, shut down the notebook, unplug the AC Adapter and then remove the battery. Hold down the Power button for 30 seconds. Re-insert the battery and plug in the AC Adapter.
Tap away at the esc key as you start the notebook to enter the Start-up Menu. Select the Bios option ( usually f10 ). Press f5 to load the defaults ( this is sometimes f9, but the menu at the bottom will show the correct key ), use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter. Press f10 to save the setting and again use the arrow keys to select 'Yes' and hit enter.
Let Windows fully load, then open your Downloads folder, right click on the IDT installer and select 'Run as Administrator' to start the installation. When this has completed, restart the notebook again.
If it now works Ok, reinstall Skype

I have a iPad and I connect it to my tv through hdmi but would like the sound to come out through the headphone socket, can I make this happen.

Go to System Preferences>Sound>Output and make sure that you selected the right output. I think if yo use HDMI you might not be abe to select another output.

Plugged my headset for the first time into my iphone4 to listen to music and the sound came out thru the phone and not the headset, anyone else have this challenge? Help

Plugged my headset for the first time into my iphone4 to listen to music and the sound came out of the phone and not out of the headset. Anyone else experience this problem? is there a way around it?

Sorry saker, but if you have not backed up your data anywhere, and you told the computer, in essence to clear the data and restore it with your iPod data, then you are pretty much out of luck....

HT201471 Does anyone know if video comes out of the headphone jack like the Itouch does on a Ipad3?

I was wondering if the video out put comes out of the headphone jack on a Ipad3 like it does on a Itouch?

No. Video will need to be shared via Home Sharing, Airplay or using an AV adapter.

What is the driver version for your NVIDIA GeForce GT640?
There is a known issue specific to Premiere Elements 10 and NVIDIA GeForce. The Announcement at the top of this forum tells it all - detailed description of problem, references, fixes, and fix details.
The following is a copy paste of that Announcement....
If you are a Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer uses a NVIDIA GeForce video card
and you are experiencing Premiere Elements 10 display and/or unexplained program behavior, then your
first line of troubleshooting needs to be rolling back the video card driver version instead of assuring that
it is up to date.
Since October 2013 to the present, there have been a growing number of reports about display and
unexplained workflow glitches specific to the Premiere Elements 10 user whose Windows computer
has a NVIDIA GeForce video card. If this applies to you, then the “user to user” remedy is to roll back
the NVIDIA GeForce video card driver as far as is necessary to get rid of the problems. The typical driver
roll back has gone back as far as March – July 2013 in order to get a working Premiere Elements 10.
Neither NVIDIA nor Adobe has taken any corrective action in this regard to date, and none is expected moving forward.
Since October 2013, the following thread has tried to keep up with the Premiere Elements 10 NVIDIA reports
http://forums.adobe.com/thread/1317675
Older NVIDIA GeForce drivers can be found NVIDIA Driver Downloads - Advanced Search
A February 2014 overview of the situation as well as how to use the older NVIDIA GeForce drivers for
the driver roll back can be found http://atr935.blogspot.com/2014/02/pe10-nvidia-video-card-roll-back.html
Please refer to the following for the driver version history of your NVIDIA card
Based on history, you should be using
GeForce 320.18 Driver
320.18

Please review and consider and then let us know the results.
Thank you.

You should also ask this in the iPad forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.
