My iPhone wont play sound without headphones in

My iPhone wont play any sound without headphones in the volume
Buttons work but won't change sound my speaker won't play any sound at all

i had the same problem and used a very small screwdriver, inserted carefully into the heaphone socket, to very gently push the microswitch at the bottom of the socket. i did this a couple of times and suddenly the sound works again.
i think the button down there can get stuck and cause this problem, or maybe it was just a fluke... try it anyway- it worked for me!

  • My IPhone wont play sound

    My IPhone wont play sound. Works fine in a dock, but once I pull it out it stops playing. It wont play music or ring. It will only vibrate.
    I know the speakers work because it'll play for two seconds then stop playing once out of dock.

    No I did not this is with the switch on "on"

  • Iphone wont play any music, headphones or without, nothing works, help!

    So, my iphone has been working fine. Then yesterday, I usually listen to Pandora Radio through my iphone, through my headphones at work. Now, no sound. It says the track is playing, i've tried diff stations, nothing plays sound. So i tried the Ipod on my Iphone...no audible sound either. It says its playing, but I cant hear anything, even with the headphones out. This is very frustrating, any help would be greatly appreciated.

    well, after the 5th restart, it works. So , i think im gonna mail it and get a new one, cause it seems to be a problem

  • HT4528 iphone wont play sound acts like its plugged up.

    wont play ringtones or music acts like its hooked up to a ihome or cord.

    So the sleep button only works intermittently? That sounds like the switch is about to fail. This isn't that uncommon... If you go to
    settings -> general -> accessibility -> assistive touch
    Turn this on and you will find a translucent little doo-dah appears. In this under device there is an option to set your phone to sleep. It's not the best solution but at least you'll be able to lock it when it does fail completely.
    As for your sound problems, it may be that the mute switch is broken, make sure vibration is set to on and give it a wiggle. Your phone should vibrate when you set it to silent and an icon should also appear momentarily on the screen.
    Also, I'd check your settings as headphone volume and speaker volume are set independently of each other.

  • HT201401 My iphone 4 wont play sound through the internal speaker. Will play if I hook up headphones. I have reset it, restored it, and it does the same thing.

    My iphone 4 wont play sound through the internal speaker. Will play if I hook up headphones. I have reset it, restored it, and it does the same thing. I can still hear when i make calls too. The the output button only says dock connector or apple tv.

    If the phone has ever gotten wet it may be damaged. It may also have dirt or a bent pin in the dock connector or the earphone jack. Try cleaning the dock connector and inspecting it with a magnifying glass. Try inserting and removing the earphone plug several times. If you have restored it and that did not fix the problem damage is the most likely cause.

  • My Iphone 4S cannot play music without headphone. Everything else works, such as alarm, siri, notifications, etc..., except music out loud. I tried everything, but there is no explanation on why it does this.

    My Iphone 4S cannot play music without headphone. Everything else works, such as alarm, siri, notifications, etc..., except music out loud. I tried everything, but there is no explanation on why it does this. If siri and alarm work fine, it cant be a internal sound system problem, and it is just for music without headphones plugged in or any other sound system.

    Hi shanny202.
    Really strange problem you have there. I have a few questions though.
    Please try again and try to make the phone as a new without restoringen with you iCloud-data or backup-data from iTunes. Maybe it is something wrong with the data (strange).
    Anyway, i think you should call Apple Support or visit an Apple Store, don't forgot to make a Genius Bar reservation.
    You locate the nearest Apple Store here: http://www.apple.com/retail/storelist/

  • I need help i dropped my phone in water, dried it, and now it wont play sound except for on the headphones

    i dropped my phone in water and now it wont play sound except in headphones and i even dried it!

    You'll have to buy an out of warranty phone at the apple store.
    Just because you dried doesn't mean that there wasn't any damage done.

  • My iphone 5c wont play sound on videos or music on certain occasions. why?

    Ive had my phone 5c for just over a year now and recently it wont play sound on music and videos on certain occasions. i have done all the updates possible to do on it and this has made no difference. tried turning it on/off and that doesnt work. any ideas/?

    Hello atbruner,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    From your post I see that you'd like your videos taken on your iPhone to be automatically synced to your other devices via iCloud.  Photo Stream will only sync your photos between your devices, however Apple recently introduced the iCloud Photo Library beta which will sync all of the content taken on your devices.  To learn more about these items, please take a look at the articles below.
    Which photo formats does My Photo Stream support?
    My Photo Stream supports JPEG, TIFF, PNG, and most RAW photo formats. My Photo Stream doesn't work with video.

  • My iphone wont make sounds any more

    My iphone wont make sounds any more , when i play music or videos i cant hear a thing .. tried resetting it and formatting it but still wont work !
    it rings and the speaker works while calling but other than that all audio-related functions are off .

    Hey M Butalak,
    Thanks for the question. Based on the information you have provided, it sounds like the following resource may help to resolve your issue:
    iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5180
    1. Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
    2. Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    3. If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    4. Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    5. If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    6. If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
              - Try turning off Bluetooth.
              - If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    7. Restart the iPhone.
    8. If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    9. If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, please contact Apple Support.
    If the issue persists, please follow the last step by contacting Apple Support for support and service options.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • HT4085 I has a problem and I am not able to solve that when I use sound effect it is showed only headphone even I did not installing the headphone I has a problem and I am not able to solve that I am. Not able to hear the sound without headphone please he

    Sounds to me like a hardware issue or maybe something is stuck in the headphone jack. When you plug in headphones, the jack in the iPad is switched to play only through the headphones and not the iPad's speakers. Sounds like either the jack is faulty or there is something stuck in the headphone jack. Get a flashlight & look inside the jack for anything that looks like it doesn't belong in there.
    Regardless, I'd take it in to an Apple Store if you have one nearby to have it checked.
    EDIT: "Ocean20" had an excellent suggestion above. While doing that, you may also want to rotate/twist the plug in the jack back & forth a few times as well. Dirty contacts can often times be cleared by doing this.

  • My ihome wont play sound

    i plug in my ipod touch and it charges but wont play music and i have it set for ipod i try it on radio and it wont play sound then either!

    Did it work before?
    Does iHome say it will work with a 4G iPod with yur iOS?
    Sometimes this helps:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: 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. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                                                 
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    My iphone wont play certain songs that i bought from itunes on my phone, it just skips songs.  Does anyone know how to fix this?

    So i fixed it by converting each song to a AAC File or whatever. Made a dulicate song but it works, just right click on the song and hit convert to aACC File.  For one album I had to right click view in apple store and hit download on the songs that were skipping.
