Ipod wont play music when songs played stays at 0 no sound

no music will play on ipod

Hey this has happened to me a couple of times to but
my works if you leave it alone for awhile ( maybe i
just hit it in the right spot). However before this
happened for 3 weeks or so my ipod would randomely
stop playing if it is on hold. i think this is
related to a malfunction in teh feature were if you
take out the headpohones it stops playing. Did your
wife experience similar problems?
Recently my ipod has a near inaudible volume. it's up
all the way, hte max volume is up all way, and when i
adjust max volume the volume comes back but as soon
as i exit out of the adjustment it becomes quiet
again.
My ipod is working now just from fiddlings and
leaving it alone (temperature effect it?)
If your wife experienced any similar problems let me
know so i can send it in before it progresses to be
worse.
It works now but for how long? thanks
No.. leaving it alone doesn't seem to help. It's really kind of weird, it's like everything works except playback via headphones. I can actually play songs that are store on the ipod when connected to iTunes (i.e., on my computer). Just that headphones don't seem to work.
Sigh. Thanks for the post though.

Music widget wont play music when touch 'play' button

iPhone 6 with iOS8.1，
I have tried reboot didn't work , only when I play music in music app, the music widget can work。

not sure if this will help you guys, but it solved my issues. my itunes 9 and everything else that was negatively effected, is now working great.
i read somewhere (sorry i dont have a link) about how to change your network settings. basically i opened op airport utility, found the time capsule (its both my router and HD), clicked manual setup, clicked wireless. once in this menu, i did two things. im not sure which one was the solution, but i did both since they fit my needs better.
one thing i did was changed my "radio mode" from "802.11n compatible (802.11g/b compatible)" to "802.11n only (5GHz)". the second thing i did from the same wirless menu, was click the wireless options button, i changed multicast rate from 6 Mbps to 24 Mbps.
both of the changes resulted in everything working fine. i can stream all my data to apple tv and play movie files without all the problems that i and many others are experiencing.
like i said, im not sure if this will help you guys, but it helped me. so give it a shot if you dont see a diffference than revert back to whatever your original setting were. oh and please note, if your network is set to 802.11n ONLY, things that arent n compatible (like my iphone) wont see the network. so this solution my not work for everyone, but i have two wireless networks so its fine.
good luck everyone

How do I configure my bluetooth on my iPod Touch 4G to automatically play music when connected and to connect as media not a phone?

Is there any way to have my iPod Touch automatically start playing music when it connects to my car stereo via Bluetooth?
Also, I would like the option to connect to my car stereo as media only and not as a phone. My car stereo supports the ability to connect to a phone via Bluetooth simultaneously with another device such as my iPod Touch as a media source. The problem is that if my iPod Touch connects first it will force out my phone from connecting via Bluetooth since it connects as a phone as well as media. I have been able to make this whole setup work by turning both my phone's Bluetooth off and my iPod Touch's Bluetooth off. Then turning my phone's Bluetooth on first and allowing it to connect. Then changing the Bluetooth option on my phone to only connect as phone. Then turning my iPod Touch's Bluetooth on and that works just fine. Both devices respond perfectly but for that to work I have to do that process everytime I get into my car. Is there anyway to set this up so I don't have to go through all of this hassle?
Btw my iPod Touch has been updated to version 4.3.5.
Any suggestion, comments, or concerns would be helpful.
Thanks,
Jon

If you store itunes andn iphoto library on the TC you could be in trouble. The TC has no auto backup mechanism.. it is simply unable to work as a true NAS. It has no media servers. It is slow.. it is very easy to corrupt libraries especially in connection over wireless. In general we recommend people do not do this.
If you go ahead anyway.. apple have specific instructions for moving the libraries.. do follow it.
I am not sure if the SONOS can play directly from itunes library or has to use an itunes server.. remember the TC is a dumb as a board router with no media servers. Apple TV also need an active itunes to work AFAIK.. you cannot play files.. unless you JB the ATV.
Also be careful as SONOS does not like apple names.. use all SMB compatible names.. short, no spaces pure alphanumeric.
Finally yes,.. at last .. you can extend the wireless in the TC using another apple router.. you cannot extend wireless using any other brand.

I cannot play music when connect to stereo via 30-pin connector. Help?

Since I first upgraded my iPod Touch 2nd Gen to iOS 4.x, I cannot play music when connect to external speakers via the 30-pin connector. I've tried several different speaker systems, but none work. My iPod freezes after making my song selection and doesn't do anything until after rebooting. Even then, it just goes through the same cycle if I select another song. My iPod is 100% functional until I try to plug it in to an external speaker system.
Keep in mind that it worked up until iOS 3.1.3.

Sounds like iOS 4 broke the compatibility with your accessory, something that sometimes happens with major OS changes. Your only hope is to see if the accessory manufacturer has an update to make it compatible with iOS 4, or downgrade your Touch back to 3.1.3.

My iphone starts playing music when I'm not even touching the phone

My iphone 4 starts playing music when the phone is in my purse and I'm not touching it or even going through my purse. I've tried making sure the ipod is not set to a song but rather to a menu screen when I close it. Sometimes I haven't even used the ipod recently. My phone also calls people when I'm not touching it. Does anyone else have this problem? It must be something I'm doing but I can't figure out what it could be. I'd appreciate any help!

Mine plays music when I have the iPhone 4 in my pocket and bend over a little, I know that kinda 'scrunches' the phone slightly but no other iPhone I've had ever did this and I've treated them all the same. I'll be walking along, pick up something and then the music starts playing. I don't touch anything, never attach headphones, basically the phone is asleep but somehow something triggers the music to start playing. I've entered this as a separate thread but no one seems to know why this happens. I suppose I could take the phone back and exchange it for a new one, but it would be better to know what is causing this.

Installed Itunes: New PC, Windows 7 x64, updated ipod software, click to eject ipod, PC goes to blue screen, dumps data, restarts; songs do not play correctly on ipod. IE: play a song - only first few seconds will play. Some songs play fully, some do not.

Hi just wanted to let you know I solved most of my XP problems with my new IPOD. It won't recognise the IPOD or driver and froze and locked up and then the battery died. After hours of trying different things here is what I did. I completly closed computer down. Waited 15 minutes turned on and reloaded everything. I put the usb cable in but not hooked up to IPOD. I turned off Mcaffee (all of it). After my computer came on. I then went and closed everything I didn't need in the bottom toolbar. (taskbar). I then reloaded the software and waited. Took forever to reload and I don't know why but whatever it worked but I DID NOT HOOK UP THE IPOD LIKE IT SAID! I instead shut down the computer after loading the software and waited 5 minutes and turned it back on. I again waited and shut of mcaffee. It loaded everything fine this time and said new hard ware and drivers detected. I plugged my IPOD in and YES I WAS UP AND RUNNING (THIS IS AFTER 6 HOURS OF PLAYING WITH OTHER THINGS!) I am able to load and play, burn, watch movies, see pictures and everything your suppose too! The only thing I see different than the instructions is I left my usb cable plugged in and when it said to eject the disk I didn't. I also didn't plug in the IPOD (5th Gen) and then I shut down waited and then restarted the computer. I hope this helps others because I know the feeling of wanting to return something you paid dearly for and worked hard at saving money to buy one and it doesn't work. My only thing I dislike about apple is they didn't supply a ac adapter for the IPOD and the instructions say to plug it up when trying to charge battery. DUHHHHHH, ya can't do that if ya don't have one and stores are closed and won' open until Monday! But at least I am up and running. I just hate having to plug up IPOD to computer daily to charge the battery which only last a half a day1

Doesn't play music when docked

My iPhone 4 does not play music when docked on any type of docking station or when I plug it into my iTrip in my car. It still charges just fine, but immediately stops playing music when plugged in. When it is plugged into external speakers, it stops playing on its own speakers as well.
I also have an unrelated problem that came up yesterday: my phone's power button is jammed up. I cannot even push it anymore. This is my 3rd iPhone in less than a year that has had this problem. I don't think I push the button very hard at all, not anymore than anyone else. What makes this happen, and can I get it fixed without paying out the *** and without taking it apart myself? I got my phone from Best Buy as I don't have an Apple store within 150 miles of me. I am currently using AssistiveTouch instead, which is just plain annoying. Please help with either problem if you can!

Recently, I have the same problem but with my B&W Zeppelin, and it turned out it was the problem of B&W and has sent it for service.

Hi,does anyone know how the Iwatch will play music when it is not near a bluetooth device as it is stated in the feature setting..Icloud streaming,internal hard drive?

Hi,does anyone know how the Iwatch will play music when it is not near a bluetooth device as it is stated in the feature setting..Icloud streaming,internal hard drive?

I did not hear them state the feature requirements directly in the streaming even but there are statements on the Apple website that clearly say that an iPhone is necessary. I'm guessing that other than Bluetooth for pairing with the iPhone, it's just not technically possible to fit any other radios such as WiFi or LTE into that form factor or battery capacity. I don't even remember them mentioning if it had a speaker or could pair directly with bluetooth headphones.
While I'm hoping that the watch has a reasonable stand-alone feature set, they didn't make it clear what exactly it can and can't do without an iPhone nearby. I also hope that they communicate this better in the coming days.

Home page safari shortcut fails to play music when minimized

I made a homepage shortcut to safari (music.google.com) which stops playing music when minimized. If I launch safari directly and navigate to music.google.com music continues to play when minimized. Symptoms are identical IOS5 & IOS5.01. Any suggestions?
Thanks in advance for any guidance

I accessed the GarageBand site and not being sure how one would play an audio loop there, I clicked the little green arrow next to "Rational Eyes" near the top. This put up a little black window that said "MP3 Player (GarageBand.com)" with a line of text that said "Report problems by clicking the 'HELP' button above.", but there was no help button other than the item on the tool bar of the site window. There was no sound.

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.

Since downloading ios 6 my iPhone 4 will not play itunes when docked - plays ok when not on dock. Has anyone else had this problem?

At least I'm not the only one with the issue. I was looking it up so see if others had the same problem and found a bunch of posts about it. I'm assuming it's not the phone then, it's the software. Should I bring it to the Apple Store? Replacing the phone seems stupid, because the phone isn't really the problem. It's the software! Maybe the iOS 5.0.2 will fix it??? I don't really want to wait though, it's a pain. If a lot of people have this issue it should get Apple's attention. They need to do something to fix it, ASAP!

Trouble playing music when iPod shuffle is connected

I have an iPod shuffle. When it is connected to my iTunes, it will sporadically re-connect and update every 5-10 minutes or so when I try to play music. I will try playing a new song on iTunes, and the application will interrupt my click, freeze for a few seconds, state that it is updating my Shuffle (without me instructing it to), and my Shuffle will pop up in Windows explorer. This is extremely annoying and tedious--and it only happens with my Shuffle, not my nano.
Do any other users suffer this problem? Any suggestions on how to fix it?

Just tried it and now it works. Of course it's the simplest answer. =)
Thank you!
