My iPhone 4S plays music for 5 seconds on a dock then stops sending audio

Hi. My first time in an Apple Community. My 4S plays music through headphones ok but if I connect it to a dock (Wadia 170i), the music plays for 5 seconds then stops. It's the same whether Spotify, Audible (talking books), BBC iPlayer etc. So whether streamed or stored on the iphone, same result. It's important to note that the iPhone continues to 'play' though the sound no longer seems to be sent through the dock. It could be a dock problem but it's so simple I find that hard to accept since it has no problem with an iPod. Has anyone else experienced anything similar? Thanks. Paul

How do I get iphone to play music for a ringtone

Hi,
I have an iphone 4, I want to change the ringtone from the "boring" ringtones that they have, I go to change the ring tones "settings" > "sounds" > "ringtone" it then says "standard" & above that "buy more tones"...well I've bought more tones...so why cant I use them as a ring tone?!!!!

You convert the song you want to use to a ringtone. You can not set a song itself as a ringtone, it must be in a specific format and under a certain length.
Google is your friend.

Playing music for others online

I am interested in playing music for others in a chat out of itunes or something of that nature and was wondering how i set up the sound to play directly through the soundcard to increase the sound quality. I have an idea how this is done for pc's but cannot fugure it out for mac. Basically i dont want it to play the music through my interenal speakers and then be picked up by the internal mic and retransmitted. There has to be a simple way to do this. ANy help? I am just using the internal stuff, no fancy speakers or anything. Also any free apps or programs that i can get to play around with sound as well?

Thanks Wrathius . I know what Teamspeak is all about just that I haven't use it before.

HT201263 iphone only shows logo for 13 seconds when connected to pc thats all it does however i connected to wall socket it goes up to connect to itunes but when i unplug it then it switches off

iphone only shows logo for 13 seconds when connected to pc thats all it does however i connected to wall socket, it goes up to connect to itunes but when i unplug it then it switches off.
this is coincidently after an ios update for iphone which i did just approx two days earlier which was suppused to fix battery issues?
also battery shows 100 percent full but as i explained if disconected from socket it switches off altogether.

Hopefully and most likely faulty battery. If you have Warranty or AppleCare, make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution.

You will need to do it using a third-party utility such as Phone to PC. Also, see:

Turn it off and stick it in a cup of rice for 1-2 days, making sure it is completely submerged in the rice. This will draw out the moisture.
Works like a charm.

IPhone starts playing music automatically when connecting to bluetooth

I'm having an issue where my iPhone 4S (iOS 6.0.1) starts playing music/podcasts as soon as it connects to the bluetooth audio in my car, even when neither the music app nor the podcasts app is open at all. This is extremely annoying because every time I get in my car it starts regardless if I want to listen to anything or not, and I'm forced to take my phone out and shut it off every time. At first, I thought it was a glitch with the podcasts app, so I deleted it, but it's still doing it through the music app. The weird thing is, while it's playing, if I open the music app, the "Now Playing" button doesn't appear. But if I double click the home button in the lock screen, or go to the music controls by double clicking on the home screen, it does show what's playing. I have no idea how to make this stop short of shutting off bluetooth, but I don't want to do this in case I want to use the phone itself while driving. Please Apple, fix this soon!

I am having a similar issue with my new IPhone 4 and my cars Bluetooth audio
The music on my iphone just randomly starts playing whenever I enter my vehicle. This happens eventhough I have paused the music
On one occasion the music was playing at the same time as I was on a phone call.

My itunesradio is only playing songs for 30 seconds or less how is that possible??

help, My itunesradio is only playing songs for 30 seconds or less how is that possible??

Hey there,
It sounds like you are using iTunes Radio, and the songs only play for 30 seconds or so. I recommend starting by signing out of the iTunes Store:
Choose Store > Sign In (or Sign Out).
From: iTunes 11 for Mac: Manage your iTunes Store account
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH12299
Then restart your computer:
Choose Apple menu > Restart.
From: OS X Mountain Lion: Restart your computer
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10991
Then sign back in and test the iTunes Radio again.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

My iPhone 4 plays music at a low volume when connected to a car stereo

My iPhone 4 plays music at a low volume when connected to a car stereo either by fm transmitter or aux cable. The volume on the phone is full and the car stereo is full yet you can barely hear it. Anyone else had issues with this

I seem to remember someone several months ago having this same problem and I think it turned out to be the AUX cord.
FM transmitters tend to have low volume associated with them as well from my experience.

My iphone just play music high

When im using headphones my iphone only play music when the volume is up to 80 % , i dont know what to do , i have already tested others headphones and the problem continues , need help

now its only playing music using headphones when the volume is at max

I am having difficulties in maintaining a facetime connection through my ipad. It will generally work for 20 seconds or so and then the frame freezes. It is difficult to follow our 2 year grandson. Any fixes?

I am having difficuties in maintaining a Facetime connection through my ipad 2. It will generally work for 20 seconds or so, and then the frame freezes. Sometimes we have audio with a freeze frame picture. It is difficult to maintain the attention of a 2 year grandson anyway, but the the lost connections make it impossible. Any fixes?

This is a connection problem with wifi. Either your wifi is failing, or your internet service is not fast enough for video feed.

Why can't I message on my Mac. I open up my messages and it stays up there for a second or two. Then it will close out by itself. Help!

For some reason, the error box photo didn't appear in my post. Here it is:

I have an iPod 3; Version 6.1.3 model MC540LL//A : Question, When I'm filming a video, lets say for 45 seconds. I click to stop recording video. It does NOT click off. Keeps recording for about 10 more seconds.

First you have a 4G iPod. Yes there is some delay between tapping the stop button and the recording stopping.

I updated my iPad to iOS 6 I face a problem to retrieve my books in the iBooks and the videos as well all the other apps are fine , I am sure I did back up, the books appear for a second in the iBook then disappear? Thanks

I updated my iPad2 to iOS 6 I face a problem to retrieve my books in the iBooks and the videos as well . All the other apps are fine with full data. I am sure I did back up to my friend's mac book pro .The books appear for a second in the iBook then disappear? Thanks

They gave me a brand new phone and I logged into all of my iCloud stuff, etc...
When I try to go onto the Internet it will say its loading, loading, loading, then give up. Pandora has given up after one song. All other apps that need to connect to Internet or networks load and load and then give up. I will double tap the one button and close out all the apps and it may work for a second but no more. Then I will turn the phone off and the same thing happens.
I have run out of ideas.

I use chrome on my iPad Air. When I open the ipad it often flashes a page that I had viewed for a second or two and then it is gone. How can I prevent this?

I don't know if you can prevent it at all. The same ting happens to me in other apps - not just web browsers. I realize that since it's a web browser, there might be something that you don't want someone else to see if they use your iPad, so If it bothers you that much, close Chrome when you are done with it.
Double tap the home button to bring put the multitasking display. Find the Chrome app preview window and drag it up off the screen to close it.
