No sound while docked

Anyone know why the iPod won't play any sound effects or music while on the apple dock?  It does play the alarm clock sound but not any other sound.

It seems like I get the same issue..... sometimes. It's not a consistent problem so I put it down to a Mobile Me problem. I DID get an e-mail last night telling me that due to ongoing issues with MobileMe, Apple are extending m subscription for a further 60 days.
One issue I do have is that my iPhone Bluetooth headset doesn't seem to charge when the cable's connected to the dock and the dock is connected to the power (not my MacBook). Charges fine connected to the MacBook. Anyone else had the same ?
I have to confess that I've had nowhere near the number and type of problems that some people have. Sure, I got typing lag and my 3G signal is a bit hit & miss, but my backups have never taken longer than a couple of minutes, I've never lost data, and my GPS works great. Maybe I'm lucky, or maybe it's because I'm completely Apple.... MacBook running latest OS, latest version of iTunes, etc. Just a theory.

    I am having trouble getting my My Mac Book Pro 15" Retina to wake up with an Apple Bluetooth Keyboard and Mouse while Docked in a Hengedock vertical docking station. The Keyboard and mouse work great with the laptop lid open but when closed in the docking station the bluetooth signal does not seem to transmit.  Is there a setting that can be changed to allow an Bluetooth keyboard and mouse to wake the computer while docked?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a Fusion Drive or a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Using the iPod Function of iPhone 3G while docked in the Universal Dock

    I am trying to use the iPhone to play my music while docked in my universal dock with the correct snappins that I just received. I here absolutely no music from the speaker while docked. I have tested it while using the alarm and receiving a call from someone. Is there something I am doing wrong or does it just not play music the the speakerphone while docked. Thanks, Jeff

    There is a difference between the iPhone 3G dock and the Universal dock with the iPhone 3G insert that allows one to be used as a speakerphone (or standalone iPod) and the other to be used really only for synching and charging.......you can guess which is which!
    If you really need the hands-free speakerphone facility (with iPod music delivery of a sort) then the 3G dock is the baby, but if you really want quality iPod music-delivery then why not consider a cable from your Universal dock to your sound-system? This solution works for me for music (as well as synching and charging) but hands-free speakerphone is still a no-go with my Universal dock, so I then use the 3G one.
    I hope that helps....

  • Switching off of keyboard sound while dialing

    How can I switch off the keyboard sound while dialing a number? The keyboard sound itself is switched off so no sound will be played while typing an e-mail or text message.
    I am using BB Z10 running OS 10.0.10.90, German language.

    Volume buttons will turn off the dialing tones ( as well as the ringer).  Also setting the phone to silent or vibrate only profile.  Only workarounds I know of for this.

  • IPhone doesn't make audible alerts while docked

  • No sound while video recording on N500!

    Hello! I just bought Lenovo 3000 N500 for my sister who is in Germany...I want to check everything on laptop, because I want her to use it to skype me...Everything is lovely, except I can't get sound while video recording...Is it possible this laptop has a webcam, but no integrated microphone? But  when I  go and use windows sound recorder that comes with Vista it records audio...But I can't get video to work with audio recording in the same time...Anybody there with a solution? Thank you , people!

    Same problem. Here's my solution:
    For now i record video using an app calle "Video FX Live". It records sounds clearly. Native iphone app still doesnt records any sound.
    So this proves the sound issues during video recording or facetime IS an IOS BUG.

  • Rt cnbc has no sound, while other videos have sound. Suggestions?

    Rt cnbc has no sound, while other videos have sound. Suggestions?

    Are the videos that still have sound those in the Videos app, or a different app ? If Videos app then have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound. Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • Click wheel frozen while docked

    All of a sudden, after 7 mos of no problems, my 3rd gen nano click wheel will no longer work while docked to my dock at home or in the car. I have been using it with both for at least 4 months and have never had this problem. I have tried both types of resets, have downloaded the most recent software, have made sure the lock switch is not engaged, and its still having the problem. After resetting it, the click wheel works fine with the earbuds (always has), but as soon as I plug it into either dock, no longer. It will still play, but can't use the click wheel. Anyone have this problem? Any solutions?? Please help!!

    The screen freezes on whatever is playing (a podcast, song, etc..). It freezes at the point the song or podcast is at when I put it in the dock. Even if the podcast or song finishes, the screen is still completetly stuck at the point it was when I put the ipod in the dock.

  • Crackling sound while pressing the area of Micro SIM slot?

    I´ve to ask the global z1 compact users about the build quality of the devices.
    My first device from amazon.de had a crackling sound while pressing the area of the micro SIM card slot - amazon did an instand replace but the replacement unit also started with this issue on day after set up. I think this is not a general fault but i´m a bit angry with this issue on such an premium device.
    Can you hear anything when pressing this area? what do you think about that? Will you recharge?
    I´ll hope that this is not a problem for water resistance...thinking about the Z in the first times...loosing back panel...

    Hello Koyirai
    If you are having issues with sound, check out the article below to troubleshoot the issue further with checking connections with any Bluetooth devices and checking the headset jack to ensure nothing is blocking access.

  • Sound while recording with audigy 2 zs plati

    i have the audigy 2 zs platinum. i'm using the /4" line in 2/mic in 2 to plug my guitar into. i can hear the guitar fine until i hit the record button on my software. it records what i'm playing, and will play it back with sound, but, again, no sound while recording. i also noticed there's no "li've" sound during playback. i've checked connections, and installed the latest drivers for the card. i'm using adobe audition 2.0 to record. please help!

    Sure. Selecting "Line 2" records the signal just after it has entered the main CL chip, and selecting "What you hear" records the signal after it has been through the mixer/effects DSP in that chip. It's likely that CL lowers the volume a notch to reduce the chance of clipping from mixing/effects processing. Note that the signals at that point are 32-bit, so that some additional headroom really doesn't lose you anything; all you need to do is to raise the recording volume a bit to compensate.
    The card's unity settings are designed for 50% on the recording slider and 00% elsewhere (i.e. there is a 2x digital multiplier on the recording slider). You may get some useful insights from a page I have: <a href=http://pages.sbcglobal.net/hamakerd/sbsrc/ target=_blank>http://pages.sbcglobal.net/hamakerd/sbsrc/[/url] by following the Additional Information link at the bottom, and seeing my comments (under the General heading) about how I determined the recording volume settings I used in that testing.

  • I muted the sound while playing angry birds and now I can't get the sound back. I have the sound on ipod, just not with the games.

    I muted the sound while playing angry birds and now I can't get the sound back. I'm fine with ipod, just the games

    If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

    You can click the Volume icon on the Windows Taskbar near the clock and click the Mixer link at the bottom to open the mixer.<br />
    You can adjust the volume level for each application in that window, so make sure that Firefox is not muted or set at a low level.<br />
    Current Firefox versions use the plugin-container process to run plugins, so you need to check the volume setting for the plugin-container process.<br />
    You will only see the Firefox program or the Plugin Container in the Mixer if you are on a website that plays sound.<br />
