Old Headphones don't fit iphone

I have a pair of Sennheiser PX 100 headphones which I had been using with my ipod video. But they don't fit the iphone jack. Are there adaptors out there for this sort of problem.

What kind of adapter is actually needed?
I have lots of adapters and don't want to drive to the Apple store (50 miles) if I can help it. Does anyone know if this is something that can be picked up at Radio Shack?
It's pretty apparent it's some kind of triple plug (for the stereo headphones and a mic jack) but I was hoping this isn't proprietary.

  • Headphones don't fit it completely anymore.

    From one day to the next, my headphones stop fitting in. When I look inside, I don't see anything blocking the entry, but there is a part of about 2 mm that doesn't get in. I can't listen to music, plase help.

    The headphone plug seems to be too long and narrow for the jack. It easily slips out when I try to plug it in and I hear no sound when it's sitting in there.
    The plug's shape is identical to the in-ear headphones that came with my first generation iPhone, which also does not fit. (except my headphones have 2 channels instead of the 3 on the iPhone in-ear set.)
    My frustration stems mainly from the fact that no one else seems to have this problem... it's very odd.

  • Headphones don't fit as snug in jack as they used to

    I have a 2 year old 160gb classic. When I use my headphones, they seem to just slide in, and don't stay in very well. My iPhone 4S snaps the headphones in snug. Is this just an issue of age, or an issue ? Is there anything I can do, besides change the jack?

    Sorry guys, but this sounds to wierd - I'm listening to Pandora as I write this using $20 Sony earphones from WalMart. Or I can plug in my 3.5 jack which feeds into my amp & listen full-blown stereo. Not braggin or trying to make you jealous here - but I think I'd go to your dealer and demand some satisfaction. Good luck!

  • I got an iPhone five but my apps don't fit to my screen how do you do it?

    my apps don't fit to the screen of my iPhone five how do you do it?

    It is not an iOS 6 issue. The screen of the iPhone 5 has more pixels tall than other iPhones and the app was not made for that screen size. You will have to wait for the developer to update the app to support the iPhone 5 (and 5G iPod touch) screen size

    You won't be able to use it unless you can get the old owner to remove the device from his account. This is Activation Lock and there is no way around it. Apple will not help.

  • My headphones won't fit into the jack in my Mac Mini. Do I need a special type of adapter?

    Hi, I would like to plug my headphones into my Mac Mini, but they don't fit. I have tried many different types and brands of headphones, but nothing works. Do I need a special type of headphone or a special adapter or something? Or was it an error in building the product? I'd really like the help soon, thanks!

    No. The iPod uses headphoes with the standard 3.5 mm plug.
    Is the problem that the plug cant be fully inserted?

    Hello mushysun,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you did not sign out of your Apple ID on your iPhone before creating a new one, then you will need to sign back in with your previous Apple ID and then sign out.  If you do not remember your password and do not have access to the email account, then you can reset your password by using the security questions.

  • Headphones doesn't fit anymore

    Hey
    I have a little problem with my iPhone 3G, the headphones doesn't fit anymore. I have used the headphones with the phone since I bought it (July 2008) without any problems, but today when I tried to plug in the headphones, they didn't want go all the way down, and sound quality was terrible. I can push it all the way down (and the sound is normal), but it goes up again if I release them. It seems like something is stucked in side there (altough I can't see anything), or that something is broken. I have tried with two different headphone (both made for the iPhone 3G) with the same result.
    It could also be dust, but I seems strange that it should go from working perfectly fine (yesterday) to not working at all (today).
    Anyone experienced the same problem with their phone before?
    I'm considering going to the Apple Store in Orlando tomorrow to see if they can help (the ATT store where I bought phone couldn't help at all), but if someone knows something I can try before driving to Orlando, I would appreciate it.

    Take a look at this shot:

    It is a shot of how it should look, the white plastic at the bottom is the moisture indicator. If you see lint you may be able to get it out with a very thin wire with a bend at the end to hook the lint out, just make sure the wire is soft and the phone is OFF

  • Can't delete albums or old photos off of my iphone 4

    i've accidentally synced my photos on to my mac and can't delete any albums or old photos off of my iphone 4

    I tried this several times, it did not work for me.  iTunes asks me if I want to delete photos on my iphone that were previously synched, I said yes, hit "apply" and then "sync" and it tried to sync, but it went very quickly and did not delete any photos.  Any ideas?
    Adding your comment to a thread marked solved is not likely to get you any answers. Also adding the same comment to multiple threads will not help either. If you have a specific problem with respect to the Photos app, create a new question. Give your question a short but succint title. In the body of the question explain clearly what your problem is, what you have done already to correct it and what, if any, error messages you received.

    As already provided, if you don't have such in your iTunes library, on your computer, then there is no way to put it back on your phone. Apps are DRM protected, so even if you found a copy somewhere, you wouldn't be able to use it.

    If the text is still on the phone and wasn't deleted, I don't see why not. Probably easiest to use an app like TouchCopy (Mac and PC) or PhoneView (Mac), rather than looking through things on the phone itself.

    iCloud Backup shows this message
    iphone is currently being restored and will automatically back up when it is done.
    My iPhone has been showing this for a long time.
    is this because my old phone is still Wifi active?
    This is a new phone all contacts and other stuff seems to have downloaded.

    this has nothing to do with your old phone (connected to wifi or not). It has to do with your wifi and new iphone. check wifi connect/restart router. then restart iphone.
