IPod no longer puts out sound, tried multiple resets/headphones
I have had my iPod for years, I believe I purchased it in 2006, and only days ago did it lose sound. I have tried to reset it, kill the battery, and I have also tried multiple headphones that work on other devices, to no avail. I've always had issues with it freezing, but never losing sound. It still indicates that it's playing, but no sound. Does anyone have an idea on how to fix this?
It sounds like you have attempted all the known troubleshooting techniques. It's more than likely that the headphone jack is a gone and is in need of replacement.

My iPad no longer puts out sound it was in my backpack will it was raining and don't know if that's what caused it pls help
A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

How do you get multiple live instruments to put out sound?
I just got a M-Audio 61 keyboard from my wife for our anniversary. I love it and it works great with GarageBand 1.X. I also have a guitar I use with GB. It is plugged in the 1/8 in. mini jack input in the back of the Mac. I however can't get both to put out sound at the same time. Lets say, for instance, that I would play the guitar and my wife the keys. How can I get both to put out sound at the same time?
Thank for any help you can offer.
Your friend in Mac OS X,
JoseDanke Christoph!
I was glad to get your response. I thought I was not doing something right in GarageBand. I'll get GB2 and try out multiple live sources.
Once again thanks.

IPod not putting out sound on right headphone
As of yesterday, my iPod is not producing any sound through the right headphone. I've tried my headphones on other devices and they work, and also tried other headphones on my ipod and the right headphone still has no sound.
It seems like a problem with the connection because when I jiggle the headphone jack, I get brief bursts of soun (it seems like if I physically hold the headphone jack towards the back of the ipod, it helps).
Anyone else encounter this or have a suggestion?http://www.iresq.com
http://www.ipodmods.com
or Google for more. You can either have them fix it or buy the part and do it yourself. -

Everything on my iPod touch (3rd gen) works just fine except the audio out put.
Try #2 and #3 in link below. If neither work, you most likely have a hardware issue. Contact Apple or a third-party service center.

IPhone only putting out sound to left earbud.
I updated to 5.1.1 and now my iPhone is no longer playing sound out of the right earbud, only the left. The handfree controls and volume buttons work but there is no sound coming out of the right earbud. I tried two different pairs and both had the same issue.
Is this related to the update or did my iPhone (model a1332, 16gb iPhone 4) just quit playing?I did try a reset/restore on my phone. I went back to the most recent backup before I upgraded and still had the issue of Apple branded earbuds not working. Any third party earbuds worked as I tested two different pairs.
At this point, I have to think that it is a hardware issue with my iPhone. However, I find it odd that only the left earbud works on Apple earbuds and also that the hands free microphone works as well as the iPod controls.
I've investigated every setting that I can in both the iPod menu and the Accessability menu with no luck on rectifying the issue. -
HELP! X-Fi Fatal!ty no longer putting out ba
I have the X-Fi Fatal!ty card. It is installed on an XP SP 2 system and is attached to a THX certified Creative 5. speaker system.A while ago, I accidentally uninstalled OpenAL not knowing that it was part of Creative's software. The sound went funky, all highs and mids with no bass. So, I system restored. The sound was still funky. Then I ran a repair operation with my original CD. Still no bass. Then I did a complete uninstall using a driver cleaner to make sure it was all fully gone before reinstalling all of the drivers and software. Still no bass. Then I installed the latest drivers from Creative. Now the bass is coming through, barely. I had to use the THX bass redirecting along with the 5dB boost to hear the bass at a comparable volume to everything else, and it's still not coming through all the way. I have tried downloading and installing the latest Open AL. Once at the repair operation and once with the full uninstall/reinstall. I'm still stuck with this issue. Most of the lows seem, for some reason, to be redirecting into the small satellite speakers, and even then at a vastly reduced volume. In order to hear them at all, I have to turn up the volume really high, which means my highs are now extremely distorted. I am a little wary about trying the new X-Fi beta drivers unless someone can tell me that they for sure work.Nothing I have tried has been able to restore my sound to the way it was.Has anyone else had this problem? Does anyone have any ideas on how to fix this issue?
I think I?got a similar?problem earlier today when I was messing around with?onboard audio?that I later removed and after unplugging a?USB headset.
Have you checked the device manager, is there any higlighted hardware that has a exclamation mark next to it.
I fixed the issue by simply uninstalling the WDM device with the exclamation mark and restarted. -
My iMac no longer puts out audio.
It doesn't make a peep with either its built-in speakers or headphones. I don't know what the problem could be. Any ideas?
Tried adjusting the volume, right? Checked to make sure that Audio System Preferences are ok?
If so then try resetting the System Management Controller (SMC) and the NVRAM and PRAM
Also run Audio Midi Setup (in the Applications/Utilities folder) and make sure the output source Format: is 44100.0 HZ
Finaly do you have Windows on the machine?
Post back if you still have the problem

Ipod touch freezes when every its trying to reset
So i decided to reset my ipod and when ever its on the apple screen with the little loading circle it would freeze and then restart and and freeze again. I do not no what to do.
Help please.I would place the iPod in recovery mode and try to restore it. See:
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1808
If that does not work I would let the battery fully discharge via the repeating freeze and restart and then try charing it and see what happens when you either turn it on or reset it. -
I have a problem of 5th generation of iPod .It has headphone sound but not out sound I mean without headphone there is no soung.I how can Solve the problem?
I have the same problem too. I tried turning it off, and it still didn't work. If you keep your headphones in a lot, I believe that is the problem. I am no tech expert, but when you put in your headphones, it triggers something and that something might be stuck. When I turn upp my vokume when my headphones are not in, it says "headphones". Pretty weird.
