My external speaker will not turn off

I can't figure out how to turn off my external speaker.  Even when my headphones are plugged in, it still plays.  I did not know this was happening until an airline attendent asked me to please turn down my music on a flight.  Boy was I embarassed!  I reset it to the original settings and it still has not cured the problem.

Make sure that your headphones are plugged all the way in meaning you cannot see any of the silver from the headphone's plug still showing.  Once you have verified that, try a hard reset of the iPod.  To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • External volume on 5G Nano will not turn off

    External volume always stays on, will not turn off on 5G iPod Nano, even when headphones are plugged in.
    Went through the 5 R's (Reset, Retry, Restart, Reinstall, Restore).  No change.
    Could it be a defective volume control?

    I had same problem - I reset options, etc.
    FINALLY, after reviewing this discussion and going to the link as was suggested, I called Apple. The tech guy suggested making sure it was not on lock (on top) which it wasnt' and said to press Menu and Middle circle button (as opposed to Play/pause) at same time and apple logo should appear. It did, and then it unfroze and let me turn it off finally!!!
    He thought problem occurs when you leave it on too long.
    He suggested NOT to reset options else you'll lose your playlists (at least until you sinc up with your itunes.
    Hope this works!!

  • IPod will not turn off after being used as an external HD in Windows

    I have disabled the option to have Itunes open when I connect my Ipod and I turned off the iTunesHelper in msconfig. This allows me to use my Ipod as an external HD without interference by iTunes. I have found that since upgrading to Ipod firmware 1.1.1, after I disconnect my Ipod using the Safely Remove hardware option in Windows XP SP2 my iPod will not turn off. I just turn on the lock, and let sleep mode set in after 2 minutes.
    This only occurs if I connect the iPod as an external HD and does not occur when I connect the iPod with iTunes open to sync my music library. The problem started with firmware 1.1.1. Is anyone also having this issue, and if so, is there a known solution?

    If you are not past the 2 weeks return period you can just return it.. for sure the TC is not ideal when you want something to store files.. the fundamental issue is lack of backup. The TC cannot back itself up. Nor can Time Machine in the computer backup network drives.
    To mount the TC disk in finder.
    Use Go, Connect to server. in the top menu.
    Type in AFP://TCname.local or TCIPaddress. (where TCname.local is the correct network name of the TC.. ie not its name as typed in, if it includes spaces and illegal characters like apostrophe. You need to find the actual network name from network utility netstat scan or better still use proper naming on the TC.
    Local is the default domain and helps.
    If the TC is in router mode the IP is static and is better used than the name.
    AFP://10.0.1.1 for example with default IP is far superior way to identify a network resource.
    The disk password will be requested. Add it to your keychain.
    It is better to load files to a DMG or sparsebundle.. See Pondini for info.

  • Ipod will not turn off, no longer recognized

    iPod asked to update to latest software.  Upload failed and ipod left in state where it will not turn off, and is no longer recognized in itunes or as a device.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Ipod nano firewire error and will not turn off! PLEASE help

    I am having the exact same problem as I see may of you unfortunate Apple users are. I am receiving the error message about firewires and I have never used one. The nano will not turn off and I have to let the battery run out. The play/pause function works perfectly fine, but not to turn off the nano. The sleep function does not do anything either. I am so disappointed with Apple because they would not help me on the phonbe since it is well past my first 90 days of ownership. I may have gotten a single drop of water on it, but that was about 2 weeks ago, and still having the same problems. I don't know what to do, but I see that Apple has gotten mighty rich off of their JUNK products! Anyone out there, help me please!

    Do a reset.  You will not lose any data: Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If this does not help resore from a backup.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414
    Lastly try restoring to factory settings.
    If none of this works, it's probably a hardware problem.  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of your Apple store.  You are under warranty and they will fix or replace it on the spot.

  • Web sharing starts but will not turn off

    I have enabled web sharing and been running successfully for a long time, recently upgraded to Lion.
    The problem I have now is that I can turn Apache on through the Web Sharing prefs but it will not turn off, technically that not true as the instance is killed off but something is restarting the httpd processes (new pid's). As far as the Pref pane is concerned Apache is off (un checked box), though in reality, a new instance is running.
    The only way to turn it off is by su apachectl stop.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks,
    Adam.

    Have you tried to hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds or so, until you see a silver apple. See if you can get it to reboot.

  • My iphone 4 will not turn off... how can I fix this?

    I went to turn off my iphone 4 and it will not turn off... it is just stuck on the circle thing it does when shutting down????  What's wrong with it?

    Try holding down both the top and home buttons a the same time until it restarts- that probably would do it.
