No Sound from ipod.

I have an ipod video. I can only get sound when it is connected to itunes on my computer. I replaced my headphone jack and still no sound. What else coulb be wrong? Thanks.

" At that time I can play music from itunes through the computer."
But that's not songs from the iPod though is it?
Have you been through these?

If nothing helps, you can arrange online service here.

Or you could take it into an Apple store and have them take a look at your iPod.

    no sound from IPod 5 generation but plays songs

    Assuming your earphones are in good condition, the iPod battery is fully charged and you are not trying to play very high quality music.(not HE-AAC), when was the last time you played any music on your iPod?
    Try this if you haven't yet.
    Reset the iPod - Press the Menu and center button for about 10 secs till the Apple logo comes ON, release the buttons, select your preferred Language.
    Play your music.
    Good Luck!

  • Sound from iPod Touch

    Hi,
    I just got an ipod Touch but it wasn't clear in the features guide whether the ipod touch is suppose to give out music sound without the earphones.
    In the settings, it gives the option to choose either speaker, earphones or both.
    So seeing that options, i chose speaker option assuming i will hear the music without the earphones. But i didn't hear any sound from the ipod touch when playing music tracks.
    Am i suppose to hear music sound from ipod touch or is the speaker option for external speakers connecting to the ipod touch?
    i'm worried my ipod touch is faulty.

    The ONLY way to get sound from the IT is with either a headset or external speakers plugged into the audio out jack.
    Unless you turn on the sound for the internal speaker, which is actually a transducer to give small alarm beeps. It won’t play music/audio.
    From the iPod touch user manual, page 78.
    *“Turn sound effects on or off*
    Choose General > Sound Effects and select whether you want sound effects to play
    over _*the internal speaker*_, through the headphones, or both.”

  • No sound from ipod classic

    can anyone help !! my ipod classic has no sound from it at all. Not from my headset or docking station or car kit. Very annoying ! Have done all the reset stuff etc but no joy. Anyone got a better idea ? Thanks

    My classic 80 GB ipod that I bought 2 years ago now has no sound at all. Initially, it came and went and now no sound. I can see that the music is playing on the screen, but no sound comes out either on earphones or dock.
    no warranty anymore and don't want to have to pay $160 to fix it. I restored the IPOD but still no sound. HELP!!!!

  • PROBLEM - no sound from ipod

    Ipod displays playing music, but no sound. Tried several different headsets. Music plays from itunes from ipod just fine.

    Its def the logic board. I called Apple customer service and the woman I spoke to basically told me I was S* out of luck. She told me because the IPod is so "old" (if 5 years if really old) that they would have to special order parts and that it would cost upwards of $129 to fix.
    I told her I could buy a new Ipod for less than that and owning other Apple products I am suprised to hear that they do not garuntee their products. It's blows my mind that I have old discman's, I am talk about 10-15 years old, that with a new set of Double A batteries, would work fine. However, when I asked if they could replace this product, not being damaged and minor blemishes on the exterior from its case, she responded no, that it's out of waruntee.
    So I then asked her, can I expect for my Apple products to just crap the bed every three to four years and she said, "Sir, the only thing I can tell you is that your 30G Ipod Video is out of waruntee." I LITERALLY left this bad boy in my car for the 5 years I have had it in the cool glvoe box. I listened to it solely in my car becuase my Alpine deck has an attachment. This is garbage and Apple won't help you....well they will, but they will charge you an arm and a leg.

  • No sound from ipod shuffle?

    The iPod Shuffle registers on iTune, the downloaded songs show up on the computer screen; however when I attach the ear plugs to the unit not sound emits from the ear phones, not even a hiss. What should be done?

    You might want to post this in the iPod shuffle forum.

  • No Sound from iPod, Tried Everything

    Hi Guys,
    Any suggestions on what to do? About two weeks ago I would try to turn it on, got the green light, but no sound was coming out of it. (Trust me, it's not because I needed to turn the volume up
    I've tried just about everything that there is to try. I'm using a 2.0 USB, so a slow USB port isn't the issue; Windows and iTunes recognizes the iPod. I've reset it many times; reformatted it, updated the iPod software, restored 3 times, reinstalled iTunes, and after all this it is still a no go.
    Any other recommendations before I turn this in to get fixed/replaced?

    I am having the same problem. I used itunes to put an audio book from audible on the shuffle, but the book will not play on the shuffle. I tried putting other things i.e. music from CD, music downloaded from itunes, none of it will play on the shuffle. When I press the play button the shuffle the green light comes on briefly (as long as the play button is depressed) and then goes out. No sound at all comes from the shuffle. When I plug the shuffle into the USB and look at what is on the shuffe using itunes, itunes shows the audio book and music are on the shuffle, when I press play using itunes, the music will play. I am completely frustrated! If anyone has answers please help!

  • (weird sound from ipod

    2) the other thing is that when i am using the ipod i can hear sounds coming out from the back of it. the sound is very similar to the computer cpu sound and the cdrom drive sound (but slightly lower in volume). i can't hear the sound when the i am listening to music with the earpiece on(cause the music volume is louder). the sound is quite disturbing. (PS the click wheel sound is off.)
    3) i was charging the ipod with a charger yesterday. its fully charged in less then an hour. after charging, i used the ipod continuously for abt 4 hours and the battery level went down by almost half. what wrong with it? i thought fully charged batt can last up to 30h for ipod classic 80g?

    1. Not sure. Stuff happens.
    2. Is this just the whirr of the hard drive/click of the heads as it reads data? It should settle down once it has read the file you are playing into memory.
    3. The iPod battery meter is a bit eratic. When charging the display will show full after about an hour which is when the the battery has been fast charged to about 80% of max. charge. To achieve max. charge takes about 4 hours. During playback the level of the charge displayed seems to vary up & down depending on what you're doing so I don't pay it too much attention. Battery life will depend on how much time the screen is active - e.g. playing videos, backlight timeout settings & brightness, how much you use the menus etc. I haven't yet managed to make mine run out before I get home at night...

  • Best possible sound from ipod

    Hi does anyone know the best possible sound settings in iTunes under "import" section in MP3 format *That an iPod G5 can play?* in terms of kbps and sample rate.
    12' Powerbook G4 1.5Ghz 768MB RAM   Mac OS X (10.4.4)   iPod G5 and iPod G2

    There's a good breakdown of formats and the quality of different bit rates in this two part article:

  • Iphone 4 ios 5 no sound from ipod

    I upgraded my iPhone 4 to ios5.  Since then the iPod (now called "Music") is basically useless, it hangs when I try to play songs and emits no sound.  Has anyone else had / solved this problem?

    I found the solution on a related apple discussion:
    http://www.iosappadvice.com/forum/fix-music-not-working-bug-in-ios-5-beta-7/
    The hard reset of the iphone does not work.
    Seriously though, I thought Apple could do better than to have such serious bugs, perhaps this a side effect of Steve Jobs' "reality distortion field" philosophy ...

  • Clicking sound from ipod mini

    Hi,
    Last week, my ipod mini started making clicking sound while I am using wheel click. I had it for just 5 months. Thank you.

    Totally normal. Go to Settings -> Clicker -> Off if you don't like it. But it will turn itself back on again if you reset.

  • Slightly fuzzy sound from iPod Classic?

    So my 5ish year old 160gB iPod Classic has started to have slightly fuzzy sound output, it's less noticeable with rap music, but quite apparent with everything else. It's not unbearably fuzzy, but enough to bug the s*** out of me. And it's not my headphones. I tried cleaning out the headphone jack and got some lint and fuzz out, but it didn't really help. If I took this to an Apple store would they be able to do anything about it? Because I'm super scared about anything happening to this iPod-- it has over 25,000 songs on it, some of which I don't have access to anymore, so I don't want to lose anything.
    Thanks

  • Weird internal sounds from iPod... help!?!

    Last night i unplugged my iPod from the computer, immediately it started making a crunching noise that came from inside the iPod and it started vibrating... it totally froze and i couldn't even reset it. Attaching it back to the computer did nothing either.
    So i left it till the morning. By then the noise had stopped. I could turn it on, but all the memory had been wiped but it still said i only had 12GB (not 30GB) of memory. It still refuses to connect with the computer and actually makes that freeze up too. Also, when left connected, it overheated to a very high level. I've tried restoring factory settings but that does nothing either
    Obviously i'm worried, just wondering if anyone can shed some light on what has happened and (if anything) what i can do about it.
    Thanx

    i'm having the same problem i came to apple.com to see if other users where having this problem last night i was listne to my iPod and the ipod was doing the same thing yours did but mine didnt freeze. it worked and the hard drive would vibrate and stop then continue again doing the same thing so i reset the iPod. but im going to take it back because i don't think thats a normal problem = (.
