Music Distortion via Earphones

Hello community,
Just yesterday, my iPhone 3G which runs on 3.1.2 played back distorted music.
The music echoes and sounds warped, and the artist lyrics become muffled. It's similar to only listening to an instrumental but in a distorted way.
I checked my EQ and sound check in the iPod settings, but everything looks normal and untouched.
How can I fix this?
Thank you in advance.

Could be slightly undersized jack plug on the Shure's, together with a not so forgiving jack on the iPhone. Do they work ok when wiggled? Not just a dirty jack plug on the Shure's is it, with a not very healthy spring contact on the iPod jack socket. Try cleaning the jack plug with a solvent, (wipe clean after though). Jack socket connections can be cleaned of sorts by repeated plugging/unplugging.

  • How can i record a song in a karaoke music track via GB?

    how can i record a song in a karaoke music track via GB?

    First plug in some headphones.
    Then drop the karaoke song into garageband. You do this by just draging and dropping the song file into garageband or if the song is in itunes just use garagebands media browser.
    Now create another track (vocal track).
    Put headphones on hit record and sing.
    This is a bit over simplifed but give it a try someone will be here when you have more specific problems.

    Try backing it up in iTunes, then restoring software. Back up first, though.
    If problem is still there, then you may have to take this to a higher level. http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/

  • I have just bought an iPad mini and to transfer my contacts,music etc via iTunes on my PC, the PC crashes - is this because of the different operating systems?

    Can anyone please help

    Hi Pa23from Argyllshire,
    This error: I have just bought an iPad mini and to transfer my contacts, music etc via iTunes on my PC, the PC crashes should not occur.
    The best guess is this crash is caused due to an issue with the PC.
    Make sure your iPad is updated to the latest operating system: iOS 7.0.4 and make sure iTunes is updated to iTunes 11.
    iTunes 11 is optimised for iOS 7, so if you have an iOS 7 device and non iTunes 11 computer, life would be hard.
    Try to update iTunes to 11.1.3 from: http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Even try uninstalling iTunes and then re-installing. iTunes will not lose any of your iTunes songs when your un-install it as iTunes stores every media item in a folder found in (or around): C:\Users\NAME\Music\iTunes
    Obviously iTunes and iDevices work best using Mac iTunes however; iTunes 11 and iOS 7 iPad Mini should work fine.
    In summary possible solutions:
    1.       Update iPad Mini to iOS 7 or better (iOS 7.0.4)
    2.       Update iTunes to iTunes 11.1.3
    3.       Restart both PC and iPad
    4.       Uninstall iTunes from PC
    Many Thanks, Happy New Year and I look forward to hearing from you regarding this crash!

  • Does the Iphone 3G support music playback via a bluetooth headset?

    Hi All,
    Does the Iphine 3g support music playback via a bluetooth headset at all, I suspect not...

    It's been on many a user's requested feature list since the first iPhone, and people were disappointed when it didn't show up on the 3G. The adaptor he links to will get the job done.
    I have to admit I've demoed a couple of bluetooth stereo headsets, and the music sounded awful. Perhaps it's improved, but for this reason it's not a feature I've personally wished was included.

  • 6120 - receiving music files via bluetooth

    the phone currently receives bluetooth-received music files (.aac) and places it in the message inbox
    and there's no option to transfer it to the sd card.
    i can't use pc suite while on the go...
    unlike other phones where it is saved in a received files folder, the 6120 doesn't have this (or i haven't seen it yet).
    is there a way to transfer it directly from the inbox to the memory card?
    thanks in advance.

    hi ,
    i was facing limitaion with memory when i was receiving music files via bluetooth..
    what i did is chend the meory in use for inbox as memory card. this will help us to receive any number of files...

  • Music distorting when browsing the web

    Hi,
    Since installing the latest version of itunes on my windows pc the music distorts whenever i am browsing the web and click on links. Its never done this before. Any ideas please?
    I have 8mb broadband and a good spec pc so its none of these causing the problems.
    Thanks

    i'm not having that problem but it may be somthing that a software restore through iTunes could solve. If not then it may have somthing to do with the websites your browsing. If the sites arent compatable with the touch or have some file formats that are not compatable somewhere on the webpage it could be causing the touch to freeze up for a bit which would stop your music.

    You can do it with the file manager this is how i use to do it. You will find it in menu|applications|office folder
    There is also a possibility to long press on the track and send. Im not sure if C5-03 support this... But go to you music libery and find the track you want then long press on it and press send.the long press method works

  • IPod only playing music through one earphone

    My ipod (5th gen) is only playing music through one earphone! Its definitely not the earphones because they work perfectly fine in my iphone. What could the problem be?

    first off try a different set of headphones, just because they work in x doesn't mean they will work in y. Second try cleaning it- blowing in it, compressed air, more than likely there's a piece of lint or dirt stuck in there. reset, update or restore the ipod. at your own risk you could check to see that all internal connections are seated properly as these zif connectors can come loose. if nothing you probably need a new audio jack

  • Music Distortion Problems

    With the recent upgrade to iTunes 7, I am experiencing many problems with my iTunes music becoming distorted or skipping playback (not skipping a song, but parts of a song). It generally only occurs if another sound occurs on my computer (for example, someone loggin in on MSN, recieving an IM, or getting new email).
    I would assume it has something to do with how iTunes and the sound hardware interact. I've disabled most of the iTunes enhancement features (such as the sound enhancer) but the problem still persists.
    Anyone else having this problem or any ideas how to fix it?

    this maybe due to your sound card driver you could try updating it
    music distortion/skipping normally happens when your cpu is running at 100% so check your windows task manager (by pressing cntl alt del and selecting task manager)
    as a temp fix you can do the following to stop your songs from skipping when someone signs into messenger
    in messenger goto tools - options
    click alerts and sounds from the left hand menu
    under windows live messenger events (it may be slightly different if you are running an old version of messenger that isnt windows live messenger e.g msn messenger 6)
    untick all the boxes to the each sound
    now no sound will play when a contact signs in

    Willeeeee,
    If this is happening after doing what you have done I would try one thing first and then see about exchanging the card for another. Try following the suggestions in here as they can have an effect on the detection of the card.
