IPod Play/Pause and Sound Issue

After the recent 3.1.2 update I'm having a problem with my iPhone's sound cutting out. It's not the speaker because I can reboot the iPhone and it will come back. I'm also having the issue where when I hit the play button in the iPod app after it switches to the pause button it immediately reverts back to the play button. Has anyone had/resolved the issues?

I was just coming in here to search for an issue like this, and found this thread.
I started experiencing what seems like this same issue yesterday. When playing MUSIC ONLY on the iPod, iPhone 3G, random skipping, within the songs, pausing etc. is occurring. This is not occurring when playing podcasts however.
The other oddity here is it does not happen, when playing through headphones. It's only happening when using an auxiliary cable through my car stereo. I know there is nothing wrong with the jack, or plug, as other devices, including another phone\ipod work just fine.
I'm calling Apple regarding this as I literally just had the phone replaced due to a problem with the ring\vibrate switch falling off, so this is a new\replacment 3G. It's been updated to the latest of everything, so this is really disturbing me at this point.

  • At you tube display video window but did not appear play, pause and sound bottons

    at you tube display video window but did not appear play, pause and sound buttons, last night i watch the video at you tube perfectly.

    It looks like a driver related issue specifically the video card driver. I suggest that you scan your computer with RadarSync so that you will know which drivers need some updating. Once you some results, you can either Google the updates or go to the HP's support website to get the latest updates or you can use RadarSync to update automatically. I hope this helps! David

  • I was just listening to my iPod nano and it stopped working. I plugged it into the computer to sync it and it won't sync. The little light don't come on on my nano. I've turned it off and on, pushed the play/pause and nothing. Can anyone help me out here?

    How long have you left the iPod to charge? It can take up to 30 minutes before it shows any signs of life. Did you use the instructions in this article to properly reset the Shuffle?

  • Using a bluetooth headphone, how can I play/pause and skip tracks on apps like Spotify?

    I have just bought the Sennheiser MM 550-x bluetooth headphone. I am not able to use the headphone's bluetooth buttons to play/pause and skip tracks in Spotify and other non-Apple apps in Lion. The bluetooth controls (avrcp) work in iTunes and QuickTime player, though. The same issue applies to the Apple headsets with inline remote controls. Is there a workaround for this, like third party remote apps  that responds to bluetooth commands or let you remap incoming bluetooth commands?

    I'm having the same issue with my Philips, I have tested on ML and Maverick and still happening,  the controls just work with iTunes and I always use spotify... Any solution for that!?!!?!?

  • Previous, play/pause, and next buttons don't work now?!

    Hey everyone so i recently downloaded and installed itunes 9.2.1 I don't have any problems with it now but i've noticed that on my mac the previous, play/pause, and next buttons on the top row of keys don't work now has that happened with anyone else? now when i look under controls on itunes it says to pause its the space key and previous and next are command then left or right arrow but those only work when you have itunes open in front of you. Its not a huge deal but i was so used to just flipping through music and pausing and started when i wanted its just annoying!!! lol is there anyway to get them to work again?

    I was having this problem as well. They were working with everything else, including my Google Chrome media keys extension (Sway.fm Unified Music Media Keys in my case). If you're running a browser extension that allows you to use your media keys on your browser, disable it. In my case it seems the extension was somehow blocking iTunes from being able to use the media keys. Once I disabled it, the keys worked perfectly with iTunes. I imagine this is probably a problem with the latest iTunes update not wanting to share use of the media keys rather than a problem with the browser extensions, since my browser extension hasn't updated since I first downloaded it.

  • Can I add the Play/Pause and Mute functions to image buttons

    A custom skin that was created to wrap around a Captivate
    movie we are creating does not include the playbar, but does have
    both a Play/Pause button and a Mute button, both of which are
    normally located in the playbar. We want to create custom image
    buttons for these actions and assign the Play/Pause and Mute
    funtions to them. Can anyone suggest how we might do this? I
    suspect that the answer lies in creating Javascript that will
    accomplish these funtions. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Does anyone know if it's impossible?

  • Connect to car, IPOD Classic pauses and will not play

    Hello to all,
    First of all I am not very good at computer stuff. I used my IPOD Classic for about three months with a car kit and all was fine. All of a sudden it stopped playing. I figured out that the IPOD pauses when it is connected to the wire from the car. I have tried connecting it with the car off, on, radio off, on all with the same result, as soon as the IPOD detects the wire it pauses. My radio will only play the IPOD not control it. Any ideas?? This is driving me mad. I don't understand why it worked for months and then suddenly stopped. Thanks in advance for any help.

    I'm having the same problem. I updated my ipod in itunes and now my car's usb deck will not recognize the ipod. It had been working for years without a problem. I emailed kenwood and they said apple pushed out an update that is causing compatibility issues with car decks. They suggested a "soft reset" which did nothing. Kenwood told me to contact Apple and Apple wants me to pay for support. Guess I'll surf around this forum till I find a way to revert back to an older version of the ipod software.
    Here's the thread from kenwood:
    Dear Mr. Lapteff,
    Thank you for contacting Kenwood USA Corporation. We value you as a Kenwood customer and appreciate the opportunity to be of assistance.
    I understand you are having an issue with playing back your Ipod. If you recently updated your Ipod to the newer iOS4 software version we recommend attempting to soft reset the Ipod and attempt reconnecting to your head unit. The available updates from Apple have caused some issues with connectivity. For information on resetting your Ipod we recommend visiting www.apple.com.
    Please feel free to contact us again with any additional questions.

  • Windows 7, Microsoft Keyboard Media Keys (Play/Pause), and iTunes

    I'm using Windows 7 Ultimate x64 and iTunes 9.0.1.8 with Microsoft Intellipoint 7.0 and a Microsoft Keyboard with media keys.
    In previous versions of Windows, iTunes, and Intellipoint, pressing the "play/pause" key on the keyboard would play or pause iTunes -- even when iTunes wasn't the active application.
    In my current setup, when iTunes is minimized, then the media keys don't control iTunes.
    Is this a bug? Is there something I can do to fix the situation?
    I've asked Microsoft for help, and they say it looks to be a compatibility issue with iTunes. So, now I'm asking Apple. Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

    I have this same problem, but with Windows XP Pro. It MUST be a iTunes and a Microsoft IntelliType driver issue.
    I JUST reinstalled my computer and loaded all new everything and the buttons worked off and on (depending on focus). I don't remember doing anything to make it work last time. The only thing I remember was installing a plug-in so my ATI Remote Wonder worked with iTunes.
    I downloaded Chris's dll as suggested. Worked flawlessly. I hope Apple and/or Microsoft fix this in the next release of their software.

  • My ipod classic pauses and unpauses spontaneously.

    My ipod classic pauses for one or two seconds and then begins playing again. This is extremely annoying and shouldn't happen with a $400.00 mp3 player. I listen to my ipod all day while at work. My ipod does this about 30 times throughout each day. Anybody know how to fix this?

    Hopefully just a reset will help.

  • Pixelated Graphics and Sound Issue (Gt70 2pc dominator gtx 870m)

    Sup.
    Bought my first MSI gaming notebook a couple days ago. It's fairly nice but it seems I'm having a couple issues.
    First:
    Sound issue. I have a Turtlebeach Z22 headset. When using it on my MSI laptop I get a series of pops every couple words.    The Z22 uses both usb and aux for the mic/headphones and I have tried everything from swithcing jacks, usb ports, updating drivers and playing around with realtek settings. No dice.
    Second: For some reason in game cutscenes have a lot of pixelation.
    I have tried crysis 2 and farcry 3 so far on max settings. Any sort of cutscene that uses a video clip (like Farcry's video tutorials) has a lot of pixelation and is sometimes fuzzy. The games are usually fine for the most part. I have updated my gfx drivers played with gfx setting and set launching options to Nvidia as global.
    Any ideas?

    Do you mean the pop sound? It would be better if you can share a video or sound record of the situation.
    2.
    Quiet manay people talk about the issue, try to change the game setting to improve the situation.

  • How can I get my Apple Remote to play/pause and do other functions on all applications?

    When I press the F8 button on my Macbook, it plays or pauses the media for whatever media application I have open, whether that's iTunes, VLC, or MPlayerX. Same goes for F7 and F9, which are backwards and forewards respectively.
    Well I recently bought an Apple Remote and expected that the same thing would go for the remote; the play/pause button would give the same command as the F8 button, so I could use the remote on whatever application that also supported the F7, F8, and F9 buttons. But apparently, that's not the case; so far I've only been able to control iTunes.
    So is there any setting I can change or program I need to install to have the Apple Remote buttons work just like the keyboard media buttons? I tried Remote Buddy, but that's not giving me specifically what I want since it's only designed to make specific programs compatible. But they still don't support for example MPlayerX, which is my default video player.

    Gosh, that must explain why it didn't come with a magic hat!
    I completely accept the fact that Apple designed it to do a limited set of functions, but in the post I asked if there was any program that I can install that causes it to do hit the function keys for me. There's already Remote Buddy, which intercepts remote signals and performs specific functions instead of the normal ones. How then can there not be a program that also intercepts them, but hits the function keys? Seems to me that that would be even easier than what Remote Buddy's doing.

  • How to change the size of youtube play/pause and progress bar?

    I have windows 8 and on internet explorer (hah), youtube videos play fine there. However, when I use Firefox, the display below videos showing the progress bar and play/pause decreases in size immensely. Is there a solution to this?
    This also applies to other videos on websites such as twitch, but not vimeo.
    I have tried changing font size to no avail, but I am relatively new to Windows (a Mac convert) and don't know the full options.

    I talked to Lenovo support and found the solution! Download the Youtube Center Add on to Firefox.
    https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/youtube-center/
    Then, click "Player" and change the Player Type to HTML5. Go to "Player Size" next (still under Player) and change the default to "Small". It works!
    If the other thread didn't get sufficiently solve,d feel free to link to this. I don't want to necro the thread though.
    Thanks to jscher2000 though!

  • Apple TV 2.3 and sound issues

    The 2.3 update seems to have cured the hang and reboot issues that were introduced in 2.2, BUT now when my TV show audio playback contains sounds like "ssssss", car engines, or white noise, I'm getting a strange oscillation in the audio. It's pretty irritating.
    Anyone else?

  • Play, pause, and skip button won't work on lock screen

    When I slide the little tab up and it gives you the options of the flashlight,calculator, and camera the play button and skip button don't work. I have an ipod5 and updated to iOS 7  how do I get it to work

    Thanks for your help. I tried a restore but that didn't work. Do you know of any instructions for taking one of these units apart? I might try seeing if anything is obstructing the buttons. If not, the buttons are probably faulty, just as you said.

  • Ipod video pausing and making strange sounds

    I have a 30Gb Ipod classic. When I get to a certain point in a video, the video will stop playing and start immiting a sharp, high-pitched sound, almost like brakes make when they're grinding. If i skip ast that point, I have no problems.
    Does anyone know what I should do?

    Hi,
    This has been a HUGE issue as of late with people and such as myself. The only thing that worked for me so far is to bring it to an apple store to the mac genius and they have to restart and reinstall the fireware in your ipod. So i strong reccomend you doing this so you dont get so frustrated like i did.
