No sound is coming through my headphones when they are plugged in

For some reason, sound is no longer coming out of my headphones when they are plugged into my laptop. I have had my laptop for 3 years and never had this problem with this computer or any computer. When the headphones are plugged in, the sound comes through the speakers in the computer but not through the headphones. Its really frustrating and I would love some help figuring out what is going on.

What generation Nano do you have?  I assume a 5G Nano, since you are referring to sound output through the iPod's external speaker.  If that is the case, first make sure your headphones are plugged all the way, meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano.
Also try to reset the device by pressing and holding both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.

  • Radio says no signal, to plug in headphones. They are plugged in now what?

    I want to use the radio and it says "No signal, headphones need to be plugged in"  they are plugged in. Now what?

    Double check to make sure the headphones are plugged ALL the way in meaning the white part of the headphones is flush with the Nano and no silver from the plug can still be seen.
    Otherwise try a hard reset of the Nano.

  • When texting someone and they reply their replies are not coming through to me and they are being told they are texting the wrong Ipod number....help!

    I tried to text my moms phone yesterday and she said she replied but I never got it....a couple hours later someone texted her and said she was texting the wrong number. I had to have my iTunes re-enabled because my account was compromised, could they have given my old number to someone else if so how do I get a new nukmber for my ipod for texting?

    You don't need to login to these workstations at all
    for the registry to take effect. All you need to do is let the workstations sit in the OU and "soak" the new policy , then restart the stations remotely/manually once or twice. I have about 60 OUs that work this way.
    the only other 2 things left are: 1) check if policy replicates to all DCs 2) format reinstall that client or use 2-3 different clients and 2-3 regular PC workstations to test the settings. the 2nd option will confirm if the DevotIT locked the registry settings
    down or not.
          I am using two computers to check this and one uses Windows Vista, the computer configuration settings are being applied, but when I do a gpresult /h c:\report.html and have a look there are no registry entries in there.  When I
    do the same thing on the thin client, the registry entries show up in the report.html file.  Why would that be?  Is there an issue with Windows Vista?
         Also, how can I troubleshoot the replication without creating folders on sysvol.  I don't want to mess with sysvol folder.
         Do you know what the Error message means?  I am trying to search for it but haven't really found much.  Is there maybe a listing of errors with GPOs? 
       ***** UPDATE:  *****
               I checked the details of "Thin Client Lockdown and I have Computer version: 18 (AD) and SysVol (19)   
               They are supposed to be the same numbers correct?
       ***** UPDATE: July 11th, 1:29 pm *****      
               I created a new OU and new policy from scratch.  No modifications at all and all new names.  There should be no conflicts at all.  Still getting that error.  No matter how many times I reboot and
    no matter what domain server comes up, I still get the same thing.  Both my vista computer and thin client have been moved over to the new OU.
             I might create a new thread to put more attention on this issue.

  • Iphone acting as if it has headphones when none are plugged in.

    I have an iphone 3G. I am not hearing any ringing when people call. I also have to take calls on speaker. This is the second iphone I have had. The "geniuses" at the Mac store gave me "new" one two weeks ago and already it doesn't work.
    I have reset the phone and turned it on and off. The mute button is NOT on. I can't run to the Mac store every two weeks. Please help.

    Hey whereismyrobot,
    The issue could be caused by debris getting in the iPhones headphone jack.
    Try adjusting the volume on the iPhone without headphones connected, does it show (headphones) even though headphones are not connected?
    If it does try the tips in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630

  • I'm a singer and recently bought a Macbook Pro.  I'd like to use it to play music through my PA system but it doesn't seem compatible as no sound is coming through.  It is however coming through my smaller Bose system.

    I'm a singer and recently bought a Macbook Pro.  I'd like to use it to play music through my PA system but it doesn't seem compatible as no sound is coming through.  It is however coming through my smaller Bose system.  My main system is Alto APM80.1000 with Proel speakers.

    Hi it's a headphone jack and two larger (microphone type jacks?) at the other end.  Please excuse my not not knowing the name of anything - I know where everything goes but not the names!  So if I press Alt and the sound icon at the same time what output should I be choosing?
    I've tried plugging into the red and white tape in tape out and the front of the amp with a headphone/red and white jack lead and a slight sound comes out but of bad quality.
    When I'm going through my bose it's an easy headphone to headphone lead and is working perfectly.
    Thanks

  • At what level does your sound start coming through?

    Hello, I have had a look at previous discussions regarding sound issues but have not come across an answer for this particular one. On the bar level, my sound starts coming through at about the 6th one from 0%, is this normal for a brand new Intel core 17"? I only found this out by playing a CD today and wondering why there wasn't any sound even though the sound level was halfway....When do your sounds start coming through? My G3 sound started a lot earlier and halfway was loud enough so I am finding this a bit strange
    Btw, I have looked at the System Prefs and it all seems OK.
    Thanks

  • TS1630 My iPhone 4 says the headphones are in when they are not. I am not getting any sound from the speaker. Nothing appears to be in the headphone jack.  Any ideas anyone?

    My iPhone 4S  has no sound through the speaker generally, although the speakerphone does work.  It is indicating that headphones are in, when they are not.  Nothing appears to be in the headphone jack.  Resetting the phone has not resolved the problem.  any ideas what could be wrong?

    This just happened to my brand new iPhone5. I tried turning all the way off and then on AND plugging and unplugging. Only to discover that simply connecting to the charger worked!!!
    Very frustrating though!!

  • My Macbook is not playing sound unless i have headphones in. The light in the headphone plug stays on even when they are not plugged in. How can i fix this?

    My Macbook is not playing sound unless i have headphones in. The light in the headphone port stays on even when they are not plugged in. How can i fix this?

    You might need to clean the headphone port (I was in the same situation and this worked for me).  Dirt, dust, and debris accumulate in the port and eventually the computer registers the debris as headphones being plugged in.  After cleaning the issue was resolved.

    You can try the standard fixes of reset, restore from backup and restore to factory defaults to rule out a hsoftware proble.  Frequently it is to to a problem with the eadphone jack and the solution is to replace the jack.

  • My sound won't work on my ipod 5. I plugged the speakers in and it works fine.  When the headphones aren't plugged in and I turn the volume up it says that they are plugged in.  Please help !

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. (this was already sugested) There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: 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
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • IPhone 5 YouTube sound is coming through Ear-Speaker (Not from main speaker).

    I’m using Safari and Chrome to watch YouTube videos, but this morning I realize that sound is very low, later I realized that sound is coming through ear-speaker and main speaker is not working for YouTube media. Any advice?!?
    Everything else is working perfect, music, ringtone, alarm all sounds coming through main speaker but all safari and chrome media is using Ear-Speaker. Really frustrating, I really think that buying iPhone5 was mistake.

    I Have a similar problem occurred on my iPhone 5 , after install iOS 8 I can hear by ear speaker but the mic didn't work also volume bottoms didon't work,
    my ear speaker still new in a good condition.

  • No sound from internal speakers or headphones when using ART Tube interface

    Hi - can anyone help with this...
    I have no sound fromthe internal speakers or headphones when using my new ART Tube USB interface - I get a nice loud recording level from the ART but cant monitor - in Logic 7.2
    Audio hardware interface in logic 7.2 is set to USB Codec - just like the ART manual states
    And the SOUND control panel is set to speakers/headphones
    But no love...
    Any comments welcomed
    Si2

    By default, OSX will only let you have one interface active at any one time - so if you specify the ART as your interface to get sound in, you don't have access to your regular interface to listen to it.
    But there is a workaround - open the Audio/MIDI Setup utility, create a new "Aggregate Device", and add both your required audio interfaces to it.
    Now, back in Logic, select the aggregate device you created as the audio device, and now all your inputs and outputs from both interfaces are available - the aggregate device acts as one big interface containing both your hardware interfaces.

  • Sound does'nt shut down when earphones are plugged in. Ipad Mini.

    Sound doesn't shut down when earphones are plugged in. Same earphones used with other ipad or iphone give no problem.

    might be a hardware issue with the headphone jack. Try cleaning it with a dry soft toothbrush to remove lint and dust.
    If that doesn't help:
    Try doing a hard reset for the iPad: Press and hold both the Home button and the Sleep/wake button simultaneously for about 15 seconds and release when the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't solve the issue, you could also try backing up the device and restoring the device as new.
    In that case, follow the steps in: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    NB: set up as a NEW device because a software issue will be in the backup. If the issue persists after restoring as new, you should offer the device for service.
    If you get specific error messages/codes in iTunes when updating/restoring, check this: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
    If you're not able to restore the device, this one might help: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    Using that last article will erase everything on the device, so make sure you have a backup!
    Good luck

    I assume you have double checked to make sure you are plugging the headset all the way in meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?
