My DINC 2 Won't recognize headphones! Help!!
Hi, my droid incredible 2 has worked in the past, but now, I try to plug in headphone to listen to music, and the music plays out of the phone's speaker. I've tried three different pairs of headphones, and I've attempted to clean out the headphone jack as best as I could. It still will not connect at all! Please help!
Hi elawson081,
I use my headphones too, so I understand how important they are! Let's see if we can get this figured out for you! Are you able to use the phone for voice calls, without using the headphones or the speaker going on? Do you notice if you downloaded anything right before this happened? Please put the phone in safe mode and then re-test. Safe mode tests to see if an application is causing the issue. Here are the steps:

Please also make sure that no debris is in the headset jack on the phone, just to see if that is the problem. Additionally,make sure you feel (and hear)the clicking noise when attaching the headphones to the phone.
Please let me know the results. Thanks!

MacBook won't recognize headphone microphone
I can't get my Macbook to recognize the microphone built into my Apple earbuds or my Urbanears Plattan headphones. What can I do to make it work?
Help me Apple Support! You're my only hope!Welcome to Apple Discussions
I can't remember if that setting is stored in PRAM but resetting it won't hurt and might fix it.
Hold down command/option/p/r keys at start up and wait for three chimes before releasing the keys. -
IPod charges, iTunes won't recognize iPod - Help!
my iPod charges when connected to my PC but iTunes will not recognize it (it will not come up in iTunes). as a result, i can't add songs to it, etc. i know my USB port works (both do actually). any advice? thanks in advance.
Hey Rina91!
Have you tried putting your iPod in Disk Mode, then connecting it to your computer again? For more info, read here -> Putting your iPod into Disk Mode
This may be a case of drive letter confusino in Windows. Follow these steps below to try assigning your iPod a different drive letter
Log off of any other users on your computer.
1 - Don’t plug in your iPod yet.
2 - Go to "START -> Control Panel -> Admin Tools (if you don't see this, click on "classic view" button on the left panel) -> Computer Management."
3 - Click on the "Disk Management" button in the left panel area.
4 - Now, with "Computer Management" and Control Panel windows opened, reset your iPod, and connect it.
5 - Right-click on your iPod's listing there (after a few moments when it gets recognized in this drive window), and click on "Change Drive letter and Paths". Then the "Change..." button.
Here's what it should look like:
Assign your iPod the letter "M" "N", "O" or the like (further along in the alphabet).
For more details, see this article:
Windows confuses iPod drive letter / Changing drive letter
Have you seen all the suggestions in this article, as well? -> iPod appears in Windows, but not in iTunes
See if you have any sucees with those suggetions.

Lumia 1020 Won't Recognize Headphones
I have a Lumia 1020 and a Nokia Purity Pro headset/headphones. Ever since I paired my 1020 to my Purity Pro, the headphone jack has stopped working, and the only way to listen to music has become my Purity Pros. Which is fine, except my car doesn't have Bluetooth, so I rely on an aux cable for music.
Anytime any type of headphone device is plugged into the 1/8" jack on the top of the phone, there is the solid 'pop' in the speakers, bu then nothing happens.
The 1020 just plays sound out of the speakers as if nothing were plugged in.
This is the 3rd Nokia Lumia I've had issues with the headphone jack. I'm not sure if it's a software issue or a hardware issue, but two of my previous 920s have had headphone jack issues.
Thankfully those both occurred within the first 25 days, so I was able to get AT&T to swap it for free. However, my 1020 is now almost 3 months old, and AT&T wants a 199$ deductible to do anything about it.
Does Nokia offer any type of support for these issues? Searching the internet gives mixed messages of horror stories of people sending in their devices only to never see them again or have them immediately returned, or wonderful stories of Nokia sending a new device before they even receive the defective one.
Any help would be appreciated.Hi d_savov,
Welcome to the forum!
Is this for a Lumia 1020 as well? Have you tried using your headset with other phones if possible? This will help verify if your headset is working fine. Have you also checked if there's something stuck in the phone's headset port that might cause the issue? Your headset is a Nokia WH-208, right?
BTW, are you getting the same audio quality with the music or calls when the sound is received via loudspeaker? Also, when you say 'the phone isn't recognizing your voice', does it happen when using both the headset and the phone's mic?
Try to verify if the phone's software is updated by going to Settings > Phone update. Try also to check if the system apps are up-to-date by scanning the QR codes shown at this link, especially the ones for Accessories and Audio: Nokia Windows Phone 8 App Updates. You may also reboot the phone by simultaneously pressing and holding the volume down & power keys until it vibrates and restarts.
We'll wait for your feedback. -
PC won't recognize WPSM54G HELP!
Greetings. I am trying to reinstall my WPSM54G on my wireless network (via Belkin F6D4230-4 router). I can make it through the steps to set up the print server without any errors, but when I go to set up the PC, it does not pick up the WPS. (PC works fine on wireless). I am using XP.
I went through the the settings on the WPS vis the IP address, and set the SSID and WPA2-PSK settings to match my router. I have also tried disabling the firewall, which did not resolve. I have it set to obtain an IP address automatically. The WPS settings do show my printer in there
I had the WPS working with this printer awhile back, but I cannot swear that it was with this particular router, if that matters.
Appreciate any help or suggestions. This is frustrating...!You can access the setup page of the WPSM54G. Assign a static IP address to the print server so that it will not change the IP address after reboot.
If your computer is able to ping the IP address of print sever then it is communicating with the print server.
You just need to add a printer port on your computer so that it will print through the print server.
What is the operating system on your computer?
Follow this link to configure printer port on windows Vista computer.

Brand new macbook pro won't recognize headphones?!?!
Howdy y'all
just got this Macbook pro 13" less than a week ago... I was getting ready to record a song, plug in my headphones... the sound continues to play through the internal speakers... this is SO frustrating.
this macbook pro replaced an ol 15" black macbook which had problems with the headphone jack also (red light coming out of the port)
someone please tell me how to fix this. i've tried several of the "fixes" seen on this board, nothing worked. doesn't even show when i pull up system preferences.
Apple, this is seriously unacceptable
what are we paying 1,500$ for?!?!?!?Have you tested to determine if the headphones are functional?
Since you got the MBP less than a week ago, have Apple check out your problem and fix it or exchange for another new one, or if you are totally dissatisfied, a refund.

My ipod touch (2nd or 3rd generation) won't recognize headphones anymore! I have'nt gotten it wet or dropped it. I've tried cleaning out the plug where you plug the headphones in. I've had no luck. Is this fixable or is it time to trash this iPod?
- 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 this price. They do not fix yours.
Apple - iPod Repair price
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the jack yourself
iPod Touch Repair – iFixit
It i likely not worth getting it fixed if a bad headphone jack -
Please Help - My iTunes library won't recognize my iPod classic
My iTunes library won't recognize my iPod classic 80gb. I try doing the trouble shooting steps on apple, but they still did not work. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I'd love to add some newer music to my old iPod for listening in the car or when travelling. Thanks a lot.
Hello dmbnewfie,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that your iPod classic is not being recognized in iTunes when you connect it to your computer. I know you have tried some troubleshooting on the Apple website as well, but without knowing which steps you have completed, I would suggest working through the attached iPod classic Troubleshooting Assistant.
Apple - Support - iPod - iPod classic Troubleshooting Assistant
Have a great day,

How do I get my music from Media Center to my iphone 4s. Itunes 10.5 won't import the MC music library, and MC won't recognize and synch to the iphone plugged into the USB port so I can't load playlists from MC to my iphone. Itunes help doesn't work.
Hello and welcome to the support community
As you know, your iPhone 5 is not compatible with our iBook G4. To get your music in iTunes from your iBook to your iPhone you would need to migrate the music files to a newer intel based Mac. A Mac which has Mac OS X 10.6 or higher installed. Then sync your iPhone 5. -
i have to upload video from my hewlett packard t200 camcorder to my mac. but mac won't recognize the camcorder files. i even bought flip4mac by tele stream which so far is useless. please help me use my camcorder with my iMac os mountain lion 10.8.2
i tried to get the installation disc for the camcorder but mac wont' recognize it becaue it is windows based i guess.
i just bought the camcorder a few months ago and when my computer crashed thought i'm finally getting a mac...it's been a costly venture which has resulted in more frustration than before my pc.
now the things i want to use with my mac that i thought would be even simpler...are not even useable...
helpThat camera shoots H.264 in an .avi wrapper.
You will have to transfer the files via the Finder.
Get a free copy of MPEG Streamclip and convert them to QuickTime .mov using the H.264 codec if you are presumably editing in iMovie.
Note that your list of video codecs won't look like mine as I have Final Cut Pro, but H.264 is definitely an option for you. -

I upgraded from leopard to snow leopard. now iTunes won't recognize my iphone, and the upgrading the software keeps crashing.. help!!
Mountain Lion is OS X 10.8
10.6 was called Snow Leopard.
To use iTunes 10.7 the following is required:
Macintosh System Requirements
Mac computer with an Intel Core processor and 512MB of RAM
OS X version 10.6.8 or later
Safari 4.0.3 or later
400MB of available disk space
Broadband Internet connection to use the iTunes Store
Do you use iTunes Match?
That way all of your songs would be matched with the master song on the iTunes servers independently of iTunes on your Mac or PC...
Look here for further information: http://www.apple.com/itunes/itunes-match/
