My 4S thinks there r headphones still attached.. how can i undo this

had my headphones plugged in this morning. after undoiung from jack, phone still think they r plugged in .. how can i fix this.. cant use my phone noormally

My iPhone 4S won't play ANY sound unless I have a external speaker or have a wireless fm transmitter plugged into the headphone jack to play sound through my home surround sound system or car speakers. I have searched the Internet and a few places said I might have lint or dirt in the headphone jack. One way to supposedly tell is to press the volume buttons while there isn't anything plugged into the headphone jack and if the phone shows the headphone volume instead of the ringer volume then that's the problem. But mine shows the ringer volume when I press the volume buttons. Another site said it might be the charging pins at the bottom of the phone and to clean those as well. So is there something in the headphone jack port or did my speaker stop working? I have already tried to shut the phone down, hard rest, a factory reset, and made sure I had the latest updates for IOS 6. I checked my sound settings and made sure the side switch was turned on and up! So it's not that.  Another website I found said there could be a problem in the software. UGH!

    On my iPad 2 I can nolonger view maps.  It says there are JavaScript errors.  How can I fix this problem?

    First, try a system reset.  It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
    Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until the screen blacks out or you see the Apple logo.  Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears.  You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
    If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore.  Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset.  Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync.  From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab.  Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup.  You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod.  Again, say "yes."

    When you email from iPhoto, you have a choice as to the size of the picture - choose medium and your friends will be able to see them.  By the way, do your friends click on the photo attachment  in the mail to open it?

    Either add or credit card or
    Create a NEW account/ID for her using these instructions. Make sure you follow the instructions. Many do not and if you do not you will not get the None option. You must use an email address that you have not used with Apple before. Make sure you specify a birthdate that results in being at least 13 years old

    Go to Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
    On your mum's iPhone go to Settings > General > About > Name - put in your mum's name so that iTunes can tell them apart.

    There has never been a facetime app on the iphone.
    As the manual says, you access from contacts.  Pick a contact and scroll down to the facetime button

  • When syncing any device, the device screen appears, but there is no text.  How can I fix this?

    When I connect my phone, iTunes shows the device.  When you go to the device screen where you would see the serial number and the check boxes of what you're syncing, there is no text.  The Sync and Apply buttons are there but no wording.  The check boxes are there, but no wording next to it.  So you don't know what you're syncing.  I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling iTunes, but it still doesn't work.  And it happens with all 5 devices that I sync. 

    That generally indicates trouble with the Segoe UI fonts on your system, shannon.
    Unfortunately, it's a bit trickier to deal with on Windows 7 than other Windows operating systems. (The instructions by Vortical that usually fix it on Vista and XP can't be applied on a Windows 7 system.)
    Try having a look through the following (unfortunately rather long) topic for discussions of possible causes of the issue on Windows 7 systems, and possible treatments for the various font-related issues on Windows 7:

    It sounds like that Library is damaged. Restore from your back up is the simple surefire solution.

  • My iphone is on silent but it still rings how can I stop this?

    My iphone rings even when it is on silent, how can I fix it?

    If you have the silent switch set to on, then your phone should not ring.  No need for changing settings.
    If the silent switch is definitely fully on, then you should try resetting the phone by holding down the sleep button and home button at the same time, keep them held down til you see the Apple logo, ignore the 'slide to power off' message and release after a few seconds.
    If that doesn't work, then I would visit an Apple Store.

  • My laptop thinks there are headphones in at all times, such that the speakers won't work, how do I fix this?

    My laptop thinks there are headphones in at all times, such that the speakers won't work, how do I fix this?

    Thanks but that did not work. Details: when I don't have headphones plugged in, the volume won't go up or down and it also displays a circle with a line through it meaning it's not working. When I go to settings and look at my audio output, it only says headphones, even if no headphones are plugged in. I have tried inserting and removing headphones many times, also tried poking the inside of the headphone jack with a stripped Q-tip, and nothing works. Something inside the jack that senses headphones is not sensing the lack of headphones.

  • Okay so my IPod touch 4 won't play music through any headphone I put into the port. I've tried it with 4-5 different headphones but it still won't work.  How can I fix this?

    Okay so my IPod touch 4 won't play music through any headphone I put into the port. I've tried it with 4-5 different headphones but it still won't work.  How can I fix this? This isn't the first time something like this has happened but it has never stayed this way for such a long time. If I have to send it in for repairs I will but I'm not sure if its under warranty

    To check for warranty coverage:
    https://selfsolve.apple.com/agreementWarrantyDynamic.do
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iOS device. 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.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for theother 4Gs. They do not fix yours.

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