My I-pad is stuck on headphones, I need help to get it back to normal ?

My I-pad is stuck on headphones, any idea how to get it back to normal?

Make sure nothing is possibly logged in the headphone jack on the ipad. Try blowing into the jack and inserting the headphone plug into the jack and then out a couple of times. Maybe gently turn it while plugged in.
You can also try this:
Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
If that doesn't work, then update iTunes on computer, backup device to iTunes, then restore the device.

  • I was in the middle of updating to 7.0.3 and Itunes stopped working. Now my phone is stuck in limbo (apple logo with status bar under) My power button doesnt work (of course) How do I get it back to normal?

    I have same issue. I click on the home button and Wake/sleep at the same time for 30 seconds or more and then the phone entered in Recovery mode. It is erasing my content now and installing the update. Let´s see how this ends. I have iCloud, iTunes match, and backups from previos versions, hope I can restore all my content.
    Otherwise I´ll go to the Genius Bar to do a checkup.
    Good luck!
    It did not work the first time... The iPhone4 kept in limbo. Then I did disconnect as suggested above and tried again to enter in Recovery mode.  This second time it works. And after restoring the iPhone4 with 7.0.3, it asked me if I want to recover from backup. I did recover from my latest back up and now it is syncing the content.

  • IPhone 4s battery stuck at 100 percent. How do I get it back to normal?

    iPhone 4s battery stuck at 100 percent. How do I get it back to normal?
    Ever since the update, I am having issues with the battery. Phone shuts down while it still shows 100 percent battery life. Normally not a big deal because I don't use it all the time but lately an issue when I'm working in Manhattan and it shuts down while in the middle of conversation or emailing.
    I can't go around charging it every hour wondering what my battery life really is.
    Please help!

    My phone now is not working at all. It only works for a few minutes while it is plugged into the wall and then it shuts down and pops right back up showing it has 75% battery. It has been doing this since yesteday afternoon.
    I tried the reset and it is still acting up. Dreading having to take this to the Apple store since it is past the initial 90 days and I will probably get charged for it. :( Dont want to shell out money for a new one since I just got this one in October.
    Thanks for your help.

    If you want to start the Restore Process over then follow these simple steps. Restart computer. Open iTunes on computer. Connect iPhone to computer with USB Cable. Hold both home and power buttons until iTunes recognizes iPhone in Recovery Mode. Usually takes about 20 seconds of holding both buttons. Click Restore button of iTunes.

    By "sos mode" do you mean recovery mode?  If so, you have to connect it to iTunes and restore it.

    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just cancelling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • HUGE BUG: Pre stuck on headphone mode! help

    I was listening to music on my Pre and had my earplugs plugged then I got call so I unplugged them and now I can only make calls using the speaker mode or a bluetooth headset and the internal speaker doesn't work anymore. During a call if I look at the icons at the bottom of the dial pad screen, the bottom left icon to switch to speaker mode is now a headphone icon and if i press it, it goes to speaker mode. I CAN'T switch back to normal mode. I've restarted my phone several times, tried everything I could , it's been 2 days and still cannot make a normal call!
    Please help, and no I don't want to reformat my phone  
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    Maybe the lubricant works and maybe just plugging and unplugging a few times works. Sprint was aware of the problem but had no solution so processed a replacement phone for me. I solved the problem and cancelled the replacement.
    Problem: Phone stuck in "headset plugged in" mode (can't hear anything on phone calls)
    Cause: Unplugging headphone while playing music
    Solution: Run Audio tests as follows
    Select Device Info | Preferences | Tests | Interactive Tests... | Audio.
    Select these tests: Phone, Headset jack, Headset microphone.
    Start | Continue
    On the Phone test, press Play, answer No, even though you hear the sound
    Same on the Record part of this test, Record something, Play it back and answer No, even though you can hear yourself.
    On the Headset Jack test, plug in a headset, click No Response
    On the Headset Microphone test, click Yes
    I'm guessing the calling VoiceMail with a headset plugged in, muting it, then unplugging the headset solution would work to reset it too, but this one worked for me.
