My iPhone 4s plug for the headphone is not responsive unless I push the headphone in hard and hold it there. Is this a defect? Do I have to visit the Genius Bar?

My iPhone 4s socket for the headphones does not connect with the headphones' plug unless I push it in hard and hold it there. If I take my finger away, the outside world hears my music, but I can't hear it through the headphones. Is this a defect in the socket? Do I have to visit the Genius Bar?  (I think I do, which would be pretty disappointing for a phone that's only a week old.)

I am having the same problem. Just got my phone 5 days ago! Just tried headphones tonight after I got Netflix and Pandora apps. I'm pretty peeved... tried 4 different pairs of earbuds and headphones. Going on a work trip in a week and really wanted to be able to use this new toy! Seems like it's a hardware problem. Did you get anywhere, cindyao?

  • Can I exclude photos on my iPhone from being sent to iCloud and how?  My goal is to only sync my calendar to the iCloud and exclude everything else.  This way I don't have to pay for more space.

    My goal is to only sync my calendar to iCloud and exclude everything else.  This way I don't have to pay for more space.

    Hey Murphie,
    I don't pay for more space and I'm backing up two devices to iCloud, a 32G ipad and a 16G phone.
    However, you can merely chose NOT to backup to iCloud. Then you won't run out of space. Items synced to iCloud do not take up your backup space.
    Now, you WILL have to back up to your computer via iTunes the old fashioned way, or risk losing valuable data. Your choice.
    However, if you manage your data responsibility, you won't run out of your 5G of storage on your iCloud backup from normal use.
    Good luck

    Hello, Nectar bits. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I see you have tried some troubleshooting steps already with there issue persisting.  Here are some additional troubleshooting steps to go through when experiencing this issue.  They are labeled for the iPhone, but apply to the iPad as well. 
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
    If the issue persists, see the section labeled Issue not resolved.

    there somting is like not clear so  i think that the blocking of factime is affect the front camera so i want be sure if the front camera of iphone from UAE is like any iphone from another country and have the same quality ??
    The front-facing camera is available for use even without FaceTime.  If you are having issues with your front-facing camera, I suggest troubleshooting the issue:
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6 older, hold down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

    hi can anyone help please ? i have had apple products now for apron 7 years BUT have never been able to make the bluetooth work , not even when 2 products i.e. : phone and iPod are in the same room. So i stopped trying but would like to set it up between my iMac and iphone / ipad but can't get it to work, they say discoverable but just will not connect to one another. I also tried the connection code and tried without one ... NO JOY ... Is this common or am i a twit ?

    You can't connect an iPhone or iPad to a Mac via Bluetooth, except for Internet tethering.
    You're not doing anything wrong - it just isn't a feature of iOS devices.
    What were you hoping a Bluetooth connection would allow you to do?

    i Purchased iWork's for my Mac and want to add it to my iPad, do I have to purchase the app?

    Hello!
    Unfortunately you have to buy this apps on your iPad. These are different apps from their similar on Mac.
    Although, if you buy them on your iPad, you'll can download for free on your iPhone/ipod Touch.
      iPad/iPhone bought after september/2013, has received iWork for free. If you have yours earlier than this, so you need to pay these apps.

  • I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries)

    I bought the Keynote app for my MacBook, but when I open the application and try to install it, I get an error message saying that the application will not work with my MacBook. What gives? And, can I please request a refund? ($19.99 = a week's groceries).
    Thank you for your help! - I did try looking for all available specs about Keynote on the Apple iTunes website, and found nothing that could help me. HELP!

    1
    Close all iWork applications
    2
    Uninstall Keynote; this must be done with an application remover tool to delete the installation properly. Appcleaner is known to work correctly for this purpose, it is free and can be downloaded from here: Appcleaner Download
    3
    empty the trash
    4
    shutdown the Mac and restart. After the start up chime, hold down the shift key until the apple logo appears
    let the Mac complete the start up procedure completely, it will take longer than usual as the hard drive is being repaired
    5
    Reinstall Keynote by logging into the Mac App Store using download / install

    Yes - email &amp; text work fine but when I use something like Google Images or search a blog with imbedded photos I get the empty white boxes with question marks.  If I click the question mark it opens the photo but I can't possibly do that for EVERY image on EVERY page I search!?!?!  I've rebooted the iPad &amp; my wireless card several times but neither action helped.  Have any clue what I should do now?

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