RE: Speaker problems

I have an iPhone 4S.  I have been having speaker problems for a while now and am slowly realizing when using and doing certain things that my sound is not working.  When I take a video my sound does not work, when I facetime with someone they can't hear me but I can hear them.  When I try and put someone on speaker phone they can't hear me.  I can listen to music and listen to videos from facebook, youtube, etc.  So my question is what could be causing this because I have sound otherwise, I can hear text message sounds, facebook notifications, etc.  Help is appreicated.  Thanks. 

Hi serena36,
This sounds more like a microphone issue that a problem with your speaker. I would suggest using the steps in this article to troubleshoot -

    Have you tried the standard fixes:
    - Reset:
    Reset iPod touch:  Press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button and the Home
    button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore the iPod from backup via iTunes
    - Restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If still problem you likely have a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genus Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • Rear speaker problem

    Hi, i have 4 speakers and a subwoofer. Mainboard is asrock xtreme4 which come with realtek hd audio.
    You may know the famous "rear speaker problem" on windows products. While speaker test just works fine, rear speaker never works on media player, winamp etc...
    But recently it become really interesting because, that rear speakers works fine on firefox browser 22.0. So it gave me hope the solve this problem once and for all.
    Right now, when i listening any thing on firefox, rear speakers works fine. But not working on Chrome and other stuff.
    What firefox 22.0 made to work speakers fine?

  • Solved my scratchy speaker problem. Do a hard reset. Home,sleep button. Hold till screen goes blank.

    Had a scratchy speaker problem and strange sounds when ipad shutdown. Hold the home button and sleep button till screen goes blank. Turn on after a minute or two. Fixed it on ipad 4. Good luck.

    Apple replaced with new phone under warranty, had to haggle a little to get that done.  Set up new one as a new phone, not from a backup, so as to not transfer any possible software issues to the new one, still re-setting up everything...      all was good for the first week or so, now this one does the same thing, plus a new issue.    While on calls the screen will go black, and the absolute only way to get control of the phone again is to hold both buttons down until the apple logo appears and phone restarts. Additionally, sometimes it will now become unanswerable when receiving a phone call, has only happened on vibrate, but it will go into a continuous vibrating mode and no way to answer the call or stop it, other than the two button restart.  Does it on normal calling, and on 4g lte calling setting (verizon).

    i've installed a SoundBlaster Li've! Value in my computer and i've connect to it a speaker system Creative Inspire 6. 6700

    WHY? Thanks for your help!

    The reason is you have only got a 4 channel sound card....... It's not a 5. sound card. Dude it's time you upgrade man.

  • Centre Speaker Problem with Z-5500 and X

    When I have entertainment mode enabled (not sure if its the mode's problem or not) the centre speaker doesnt play alot of the music (I heard the voices are supposed to come from centre while ambience comes from the other speakers) most of the sound is coming from the other 4 speakers. Also, when the song gets real intense (or a word starting with "s" is said) the speaker starts to crackle and fizzle, and it makes me think the speaker is dieing or not able to handle that sound. However, when I enable game mode and play counterstrike or such, with the volume pretty high (about halfway for the Z-5500 is deafening) I can shoot and throw grenades and such but the centre channel (which plays alot more sound then when Im playing music) doesnt crackle or fizzle, it handles pretty much 80% of the sound) I especially hear the crackling/distortion or whatever it is when Im playing System of a Down's Chop Suey, when he says the line "self righteous suicide" it crackles and causes a fuzzy sound when he says it, and some other songs have parts of it when this happens. Just wondering why the X-Fi is causing this (i dont think its the modes problem cause I have the problem with game mode too) but it cant be the speaker as it works perfectly fine in game.

    Hows it going mate. i have a very similar setup to you and have the same problem. the sound only comes out of the front and centre speakers. even the surround sound comes out of the fronts. this is because the vista drivers do not support dolby digital or dts. lol what a waste of money. there is no warnings about this when you purchase the card. i am appauled at this. It is false advertising.

  • Airport Express speaker problem

    I have an Airport Extreme running my home network with two Airport Expresses, both hooked up to powered speakers. One Express is the older model, the other brand new. AirTunes intermittently drops one or the other speaker setup. My question is this- would I potentially fix this problem by upgrading the older Express to a new one? Thanks!

    My question is this- would I potentially fix this problem by upgrading the older Express to a new one?
    If all of your wireless client support 802.11n, then the answer would be yes. In that case you could create an 802.11n only network to get the best bandwidth possible for streaming.

  • Macbook pro 13 Speaker problem

    When I listen to music in Mono, it’s supposed to be that the speakers sound exactly the same from both channels. But when I move the balance of the speakers in System Preferences, the left speaker sounds very distorted and muffled and in the right speaker sounds good with a lot of bass.The guitars sound awful in the left channel . there is a problem with my Macbook? or is supposed to sound like that? i just bought it. its a 2012  model without retina display.
    Thank you!

    Both speakers should work equally well.  I would exchange it for another one if you just bought it.

  • Multiple Speaker Problem with Airport Express

    I'm having an issue with my Airport Express in selecting Multiple Speakers. I have one Airport Express located in the Living Room, and have no problem playing music on that directly from iTunes. However I cannot play there and on the Mac at the same time. An error message comes up:
    An error occurred while connecting to the remote speaker "Living Room". An unknown error occurred (-15000).
    I can clear the error and then go back to listening either in the living room or on the computer, but not both.
    I have tried reinstalling everything...iTunes, Airport, Mac OSX, you name it.
    Any ideas anyone?

    I may have a solution for you Shannon. My solution, found after a lengthly Apple Support call, applies to Tiger 10.4.11 however it likely applies to Leopard as well. The problem is with your Firewall settings which may be blocking UDP access and or have it operating under a Stealth Mode. It must be set to allow UDP Traffic.
    In 10.4.11 under System preferences/Sharing/Firewall under the Advanced button there are three checkboxes "Block UDP Traffic" "Enable Firewall Logging" and "Enable Stealth Mode". Uncheck all three of these boxes and it should work.
