No sound with or without headphones

Hi there,
My problem started when i was watching a video online and i had comercials, so i decided to turn off the sound of it. Since that issue i can't heard anything. I when to setting and everything is the way that i supposed to be. But i don't have any sound at all. Do i have to reinstall OS X leopard? Thanks.

First, scroll to one of the pulldown icons on the right hand of your screen. There's a "sound" icon that tells you if your speaker is working. Use the pulldown to make it louder. Or, go to System Preferences/Sound/Output and look at the bottom of the screen. The toggle on the bottom should be pushed toward the middle to make the sound louder.
If you've tried everything - and it seems you have - you might want to visit your local Apple Store's Genius Bar to have a specialists look at the machine. If it's less than a year old or have Applecare coverage, they'll take care of it in store. If you're not in warranty and don't have Applecare, visit the Genius Bar anyway. They may be able to fix the problem if it's easy, and would be able to put you on the right track to fixing it.
Post here when you've come up with the solution!!

I have a nearly identical problem with my Ipad 3. Mine is the left channel. I've yet to find help, but have found a number of other posts on this and other forums discussing the issue. People have tried restore, reset etc. Also, cleaning the ports with compressed air or cotton swabs. It appears to be a software issue, but no one is sure.
Along with the original poster, I'd appreciate any help.
As far as the 'level 6' poster, if you're going to be rude, please don't bother. Hope it was just a bad day.

Audio in is working, but no audio out on internal speakers (with or without headphones.)

The sound on my laptop has stopped working entirely, with and without headphones. What should I do?

The sound on my computer has stopped working. I have searched through countles google entries to try and figure out the problem but I can't find anything remotely useful. I never spilled any liquid or anything on my computer. I was just searching through youtube and when I clicked a video there was no sound. Then I checked iTunes and tried to play some music, still no sound. I played around with the preferences and volume control, still no sound. If you have any advice please help. Going to the apple store is so expensive and I don't have the time or money.

Did you try resetting PRAM and SMC?
Is there any red light visible in the headphone port?

IPad 2 no sound while playing without Headphone .

Hi Folks,
Hope you all master mind over there are in good spirits.
It's been while now that all of sudden sound stop coming from my iPad 2 .When I use the side volume up/down,nothing happens and only the icon is displayed that shows just a volume but without any levels to increase the volume.
Strange thing is that when I plug in my headphone into the volume jack of the iPad 2 , sound start coming.
Things I have tried.
1).Tried checking the sound setting in the general-sounds and everything seems to be correct.
2).Verified the side volume /lock button.
3).When I double click the home button and slide to the right , I can see the volume button being displayed there without volume levels and can't even increase the volume.
I am going impatient and It seems that after trying so much , I have to live with issue.If any of you experts have some workaround for me , I would be very much grateful to you.
Apologies ,if I have written this question in wrong way , or if I was not able to make you understand the issue .
Thanks in Advance

Have you got the solution Miles 2? Please share if you know. My ipad 2 got exactly same as yours. Upgrade to iOS 7, retore, back up,...done all but not solve issue.
Please reply and Thanks a lot...

Audio is VERY low with and without headphones even after being turned up! :(

Ok, so I have a Satellie A105-S361 Toshiba laptop with Windows XP that recently got repaired and it works splendidly, but the other night I discovered that when I tried to listen to audio, the sound was so low that it was difficult to hear. So I turned up the volume in the Volume Control window and tried again, no change. So then I tried plugging in my headphones to see if I could hear anything, still no change. So you can hardly hear the sound through the speakers or any headphones. Turning up the volume doesn't help, and its really starting to get a little frustrating.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

First, check the pesky manual volume dial, it's on the front of the computer, on the very right, kind of tucked under so it's a bit difficult to see.
Then check the "Sounds and Audio Devices" control panel.
There's the "Device Volume" slider, and also look under the "Speaker Volume..." button for another volume slider.
Also, click on"Advanced..." and there should be a mixer that pops up, and you can adjust more items there.

Hopefully it is simple fix...sound wount play without headphones

HELP...NO SOUND UNLESS USING HEADPHONES...how do I fix?

the headphones and internal speakers use different volumes, I assume you have turned up the volume when you were not using headphones. Also, please use the iPhone forum in the future for any iPhone related questions.

Akai mini controller has no sound with or without GarageBand?

I found that sometimes there is no sound from the Akai Mini Controller with it is used with GarageBand and completely no sound when played on its own. Something wrong?

Well, Apple does not participate in the forum, so they will not hear all of the things that you have asked them to do. If you restored the device as new and tested it with no content added and it was still not working correctly, then you need to make an appointment at the Genius Bar at the nearest Apple store to have the hardware checked. Then when there you can tell the Genius everything you wanted to tell Apple here, about the number of Google hits you received, the fact they broke your phone and want it fixed or replaced. and that you feel they should not be treating you like they are. If you want to tell Apple all of this prior to your appointment, you can go to their feedback page HERE, and click on the appropriate link. Otherwise, this is a user to user forum.

I get no sound when I play games on my iPhone 5s with just the speaker but headphone it works. Music works both ways. What do I need to do so I can hear my game without headphones like I can my music

When playing games on my iphone 5s I can't hear any sound but if I play music from where ever it works. If I put on headphones I can hear the game would like it to work with sound with out them too what did I do to mess up my phone help please

Hello tiffay8,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
From your post I understand you're not getting any audio output from your speakers when you're playing games. Follow the steps below to resolve the issue:
Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
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.
If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
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.
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.
iPhone: No sound or distorted sound from speaker

Sound do not works without headphones

Sound only works with headphone. How I can restore sound without headphones in ipad3? Qazi.sohail

With the headphones unplugged, does adjusting the volume bring up the volume indicator with "ringer (headphones)"? If so, try searching for article TS1630 on apple's site or google. It may have some debris in the headphone jack that could be removed by plugging and unplugging the headphones about 7 times. If that doesn't work, keep following TS1630.

Sound not playing in apps/games without headphones

My iPhone 4 running iOS 6.0.1 is not playing sound through the speakers when in game.
This has been a problem that I have held off on for awhile now.
Here is relavent information:
1. Sound works when headphones are plugged in. Therefore, in game settings are not set to muted.
2. Music, Youtube, phone call speaker work. They can be played without headphones when the play button is pressed.
3. The volume buttons on the side do absolutely nothing, Ringer does not show up.
4. The switch above the volume buttons is not on silent.
5. I have reset the device multiple times. I have reset settings in General.
6. I have tried cleaning the headphone jack with a q-tip and the dock connector with a toothbrush.
I'm hoping to find a solution without having to resort to a restore which may not even solve the problem.
Also way past warranty, so not an option.
Thanks!

My iPhone 4 will not let me play my music I bought on iTunes or pandora or YouTube with out my headphones or speakers plugged in. I can play my ringtone without them plugged in but that's all. Also my iPhone will not turn off. Please help

I tried resisting my phone it didnt work. Please help? This is the first time it has ever happens and has been doing it for a week. The sound will only play without headphones or speakers is when I'm listening to my ringtone. And my phone won't turn off. It turns off then just turns back on.

There's a whole lot to read in your post, and frankly I have not read it all.
Having said that, this troubleshooting guide should help:

In particular, pay attention to the mobile device support sections near the bottom, assuming you have already done the items above it.

Problems with HQ-2300D headphones. Lack of surround sound and other minor probs.

I've bought Creative HQ-2300D, and I am disappointed so far.
My first problem was instructions. I am not trying to insult anyone, but the booklet didn't instruct anything. It merely explained what the buttons did and what did the pictures mean (as if I can't recognize a notebook when I see one). The diagram did not include PCs, either.
Regardless, it wasn't useless as finally I've made the headphones & the decoder work. I was surprised that the cable connecting my machine and the decoder was short and thin. Very thin. Here's what I had in my bundle, aside from the decoder, headphones, and cheap Energizer AA batteries:
http://img293.imageshack.us/my.php?image=img0020qh6.jpg
"A" is used for connecting the headphones to video game consoles, I gathered, so I put it aside, since I needed to connect the headphones and decoder to my PC. I tried using "B", but couldn't fit the black thing anywhere. "C" worked. Did I get it right?
I tried music first. Horrid. Bass sounded blurred out and what closely followed could only be described as hands clapping with bass at zero. After messing around with settings, I've managed to reduce that effect to a minimum. Then I've tried watching a movie, and the sound quality was actually very good. Although I've been watching a DVD, I didn't notice surround sound.
Then I've tried games. Half-Life 2 and then Doom 3 with EAX patch. The sound quality is admirable, but I didn't notice surround sound. Is there anything I need to tweak? Also, there's faint noise after low sounds.
Are the headphones defected, or what?
EDIT: Forgot to mention my soundcard is X-Fi Platinum.

I'm really sorry for the double post, but after thoroughly reading the instructions again, I've managed to eliminate that faint static by pressing Dolby Pro Logic II and Dolby Headphones buttons simultaneously and holding them for 2 seconds.
But the surround sound is still absent. I thoroughly tested with the helicopter sound circling you, with both CMSS-3D on and off, I fired up Half-Life 2 and Doom 3 and tested if there's any difference between front and back, with both CMSS-3D on and off. I closed my eyes, and I couldn't tell where the sound was coming from.
