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"

  • 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!

  • 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.

    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:

    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,

  • 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.

  • 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 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.

  • My iPhone 4S wont play sound out loud...

    It's acting like it's plugged into a speaker, which it's not. It will not play sound out loud, and there's no volume bar. And when it does, it's literally for 2 seconds then goes back to no sound... I have no idea what made it start doing this. It was not dropped or anything.... Any suggestions?

    Is the Silent on? the little button on the side near the volume, If it is it will be orange. That might be your problem.

  • 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

  • My IPOD WONT PLAY SOUND ON VIDEOS

    i just got an ipod and i can play videos but there is no sound. the videos i want to play are music videos i have downloaded and ren and stimpy videos and meet the barkers tv series. i have clicked convert to ipod in itunes and they convert but after they convert they lose there sound on itunes and when i transfer them to the ipod there is no sound. has anyone else got this problem or have an idea to correct it. please help cuz i have minimal ipod / computer knowledge and i need all the help i can get thanks

    i downloaded a few videos and they played fine on
    itunes. BUT, they couldnt be added to my ipod. i
    followed instructions to convert them for my ipod but
    the converted videos dont have any sound. when i put
    the converted videos on my ipod, they wont play- they
    show up like a song- white background, name of song
    and band, and, instead of the album cover, there is a
    still frame from the video. is there something wrong
    with the videos??? help!!!!
    That sometimes happend to me when I converted the videos using Itunes....So, I use this converter instead...
    Videora Ipod Coverter
    http://www.videora.com/en-us/Converter/iPod/
    It'a a free program to download and your videos should play fine in your ipod once you use this to covert them.
    As for the videos not playing for you, it could be the fact that you coverted them using Itunes, so try the above converter instead and that should work okay. If that still doesn't work for you try getting your settings back to their original state - Go to 'Settings' and then 'reset Settings' and this will put your settings back the way they were once you bought the ipod originally. The videos should definately play in your ipod then.
    If you need anymore help, just let me know, I know how annoying it is when the videos won't play properly!!!
    Good luck with it!

  • Quick time wont play sound

    Im having trouble with quicktime, it will play the video of an m4v, but it wont play the sound with it, any suggestions.

    You can install QT only from the install DVD, yes, but it'll be best to uninstall it completely first. Trash the application, and any receipts.
    -Go to /Library/Receipts/
    -Locate the QuickTime receipts files.
    -Select all QuickTime receipts that have version numbers as part of their names (but don't select the other QuickTime receipts).
