Sound completely turned off after pulling headphones out

I was listening to some music on my headphones and finally unplugged my headphones from my computer and suddenly I can't hear anything. I make sure that my volume is on and nothing is on mute. I don't understand what happened. I checked if the volume buttons work, they do and on high volume, I check the Audio MIDI Setup which I just discovered when I was trying to figure out how to bring volume back into my computer and not sure what to look for. Someone help?

Is there a red light shining in the headphone port ?

System Sound wont turn off after 1.3.1 update

I turn off the System Sounds to not here when notifications come in when I sleep, but I want to be able to here the phone ring when I call comes in...i dont wont to have to mute the whole phone... Is there a problem ticket or a break fix open on this issue...
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I have the same problem. I could turn off system sounds at night which would stop the e-mail notifications, but still allow the phone to ring. After the 1.3.1 update, the systems sound slider has no effect. The only way I can mute system sounds is to turn the ringer switch off which mutes the phone completely. I contacted Sprint and they have no clue. And, of course Palm only works during weekdays and normal working hours. Palm really needs to test updates completely before releasing them. I note others are reporting similar sound problems under different headings.

Sound output turning off in iTunes

When using iTunes on my macbook pro and connecting to AV amplifier with miniDVI-HDMI cable, the sound output turns off after some minutes. apron touching the trackpad, the sound turns on again.this does not happen with VLC. any help?

Since asking the question, I have established the following:
The sound output stops when the display goes to sleep. Note that only the display sleep mode affects this, not the computer sleep mode. Also the screen saver does not have any affect.
So, does anyone know how to stop this from happening? It does not make sense to me that iTunes ouput should stop when the display (not the computer) goes to sleep ...

They're dated 2004-5-4, which I assume means May 4. There is no change in the sound problem. I have a Creative SoundBlaster Live Value card with line in jack. The sound is fine for the first 60-90 seconds of either live view or recording, then it snaps off and stays off. It's the same whether I'm using MSI PVS or WinDVD Creator as the capture software, so I'm pretty sure it's the driver.
However, I'm not sure how to make sure the new driver was the one which WinXP Home installed. Before running the setup.exe that came with the new driver, I ran Add/Remove Programs from the Control Panel and removed the USB Audio/Video Device Driver item that represents this device driver. After rebooting, I ran the setup for the new driver I just downloaded. After rebooting again with the MSI VOX2.0 card unplugged, I plugged it in and Windows "found new hardware" and offered to search for a driver for it. I allowed that to go forward and got a warning from Windows that the driver was not signed or approved. I allowed it to install anyway, but there is still the same problem. I don't know how to verify that the new driver was the one picked and installed by Windows, or if it could be still the original one that was on the install CD supplied with the MSI VOX2.0.
I noticed that a no-audio problem was mentioned as fixed in the ReleaseNote.txt file included in the msipvs_8609.zip file, but I'm not sure they're talking about the same no sound after the first minute problem.
I can't find anything else about this anywhere.
Anybody solve this problem yet or have an idea where to find help?
Yes I think I found the problem. It seems that only laptop users have this problem. I also had this problem with the vox connected on my laptop. Sound simply switches off after about 30 seconds. Reading the forum I found out that the problem only appears with laptop users. I tried it on my desktop pc and the problem disappeared.
The problem can be solved by disconnecting all other usb devices that draw current from the usb port. I did this and since then the vox is working correctly for hours now. It is a pitty that we are not helped by MSI. I would expect that they know how much current the vox draws and that it is critical.

Sound for messages and e-Mail get turned off after using handsfree in car

Does anyone have a solution when sounds alerting messages and e-mails are turned off after using the phone in var with handsfree (using Bluetooth)? The sounds are turned back on when restarting the phone but reoccurs after driving in car with handsfree again. This is very annoying when takling several trips with car during a day. The phone still rings when receiving a call.

I did find a solution to my iPhone-iPod-music-overriding-streaming-streaming-services-while-connected-to-USB problem Although, this solution is likely only applicable to BMW owners with the BMW Apps feature aka 6NR.
There may be other/simpler ways, but this seems to work:
1) Launch Pandora (or could be Mog, or other BMW Apps app) BEFORE you start iPhone/iPod playback
2) Start playback of Pandora via ConnectedDrive/BMW Apps.
3) Press Home button on iPhone, launch your streaming app.
The car still seems to think it's in the ConnectedDrive audio menu, as evidenced by the Entertainment details screen. You can now consistently play back any other audio service via your iPhone without the iPod audio overriding what you're doing. Good times! The only drawback so far is lack of ability to skip tracks via the steering wheel.
As long as you haven't started iPhone/iPod playback when you get in the car, you can often skip steps #1 and #2, and go straight into the ConnectedDrive menu, then go to step #3. Either way, following steps #1-3 works everytime.

Why does my Sony Sound bar CT60BT turn off after 15 minutes?

I turn the volume down during the evening and when I do, it automatically turns off after about 15 minutes. Is there a way to change the settings so that it doesnt go into standby mode?

Hi mdalton1284,
Your Sound Bar has an Auto Standby Function.
It will enter standby mode automatically when you do not operate the Sound Bar for about 15 minutes and the Sound Bar is not receiving an input signal but the sound bar is receiving signal from your PS4 going to the TV via HDMI connection.
You may try resetting the Sound Bar.
Follow the steps below.
Use buttons on the remote control for the operation.
Press BASS +, VOL - , and TREBLE + in that order within 3 seconds.
Let us know if you're getting the same result after resetting the device.
Thanks,

Hello sir my iphone screen turns off after using 2-5 minutes what would be the problem please help me out

hello sir my iphone screen turns off after using 2-5 minutes what would be the problem please help me out

To make sure that this is not software related, set it back to factory settings, without using any backup data afterwards. Set up the rest of the personal settings manually and test the phone. If it still does not work, this is a hardware issue and the phone has to be serviced by Apple or an Authorized Apple Service Provider:

Stuck in recovery mode and turns off after 30 seconds

Hi everyone,
I have done my research but no one seems to be having the exact same problem that I have. Here's what happened:
When I was updating the firmware of my Ipod Touch 4g iOS to 4.2 in a MacBook Pro, it suddenly cut the USB power because it was low on battery. After which, my Ipod now only goes from the apple logo to recovery mode (connect to itunes screen)then turns off after about 30seconds.
It still gets recognized in iTunes but it doesn't stay powered on long enough for something to be done (restore, iRecovery, etc.). I have tried doing the DFU to recovery mode, holding the home button when connecting the cable, etc.
I have everything backed up so restoring is not an issue. I just need it to work.
Help!

Not sure if this is the same problem exactly but all of a sudden my phone was stuck in headphone mode & wouldn't make sounds through the speakers at all. This was because of a dirt/dust buildup in the port. What I did was hold the phone & a flashlight in one hand & scraped out the crap with a safety needle/pin thing. This was very useful because I could exactly see where the stuff was & eventually I dug it all out. Works fine now! Hope this helps you/anyone else having a similar problem

How do I tell Apple to fix their software like apps that play sound even though the sound is turned off and not being able to disable features you hate like game center

Apple is suppose to be the pinnacle of usability and, yet, I want to throw my new IPhone 4s as far as I can and watch is smash into a million pieces on concrete. Seriously, I've already got three things that irritate the **** out of me. First, there are Apple apps that insist on playing sound even though the sound is turned off. If I flick a switch to turn the sound off, I want the sound off!!!! Second, if I do not want a totally unnecessary feature like Game Center, I should be able to disable it. I completed most of the Angry Bird levels with 2 or 3 stars and now I have to start over from square one. Maybe, this happened when I upgraded to the 4s but it sure seemed to happen when I joined Game Center. Tomorrow, I am going to reset my 4s to factory defaults to try to get rid of my Game Center account. I don't want Game Center! I do need Game Center! I hate Game Center! Finally, I had an alarm go off to wake me up and there was a Snooze button but no button to turn the alarm off. I flicked the slider to access the main screen expecting to see something to turn the alarm off but there was nothing. The alarm just kept alarming. I had to warm boot my IPhone to shut the alarm off! Really, Apple!!!!

The sound is turned off. Only, some Apple apps like YouTube and Siri make sound when the sound is turned off. It is very embarrassing when this happens at work. My question was how do I tell Apple to fix this?
Turning off game center does not work. The games just prompt me to sign in when they are started.I have tried everything I can find online to stop this behavior. It is annoying and should not happen. My question was how do I tell Apple to fix this?
The alarm went off. There was a green thing that looked like a button but pressing it did nothing. There was a red button that said snooze. I did not want to snooze. I wanted to turn the alarm off. I slid the bar to unlock the phone and there were no running apps with a button to press. The alarm just keep running. I have not had this problem since it first occurred. The alarm now shuts off when I just unlock the phone. It may have happened because I had another alarm app running. The two may have interfered with each other. I would like to tell Apple about it.
It also annoys me that the button that closes apps leaves the phone app running. If I press on a number at 6:00 AM to get information about who called me, the phone automatically dials the person back and my natural reaction is to press on the button to close the phone app but the phone keeps dialing this person at 6:00 AM. It is a bad design. I would like to tell Apple about it.
Finally, I looked all over Apple's site to try to find someplace I could send them a polite message to let them know that I was not happy with these "features" but could not find anything. It is extremely frustrating to have issues with a product and not being able to tell the manufacturer about it. So, you grow up!.
When trying to fix the Game Center issue, I saw a link someone posted to report issues with the IPad to Apple. The answer I am looking for is where is the link to report issues with the IPhone.

Why won't my MacBook Pro 13 in 2011 not turn off after upgrading to Lion?

I upgraded to Lion when it came out, but I tried to run a PowerPC only game and the entire system crashed. I was then prompted to reinstall lion, so I did so, but after reinstalling it, it doesn't completely turn off. I click powerdown and it goes to a gray screen where it looks as though it's loading something, but will just stay on this gray screen until the battery dies out. There is no responsed to clicking with the track pad, nor to keys. Any ideas?

Boot to the Lion Restore disk (hold down option key when rebooting) select Disk Utility and then Repair Disk.

Sounds Keep Turning Off

I've discovered during the past couple of weeks that my interface sounds (clicks at login, locking sound when pressing the top button, etc.) have been consistently turning off. I can reactivate them by reselecting my ring tone, which forces that sound to play, and that reactivates my Text pings, login clicks, and the like, for a while, but then, sure enough, those interface sounds turn off again. Going into Settings/Sounds and turning off the keyboard clicks and then pressing the slider to reactivate the clicks doesn't work. Only reselecting the default phone ring is enough to reactivate the interface sounds that all show they're supposed to be on.
I've tried graceful shutdowns and hard resets, to no avail.
This is a first generation iPhone with OS 3.0 running and about 2.4GB free storage available.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?
Thanks for listening...

My iPhone's been out of its dock (the two port version that came with my Apple Bluetooth Earpiece) all afternoon, and the sound has been fine with all interfaces effects clicking away normally (after I reselected the default ring sound initially).
Because I had noted that others have reported sound issues after using their docks, typically after they inserted it into the dock and got the message that the device wasn't compatible (which it certainly had to be since it was from Apple), and since I had also observed this message popping up lately when I docked my iPhone, I got out my USB cable connector and tried it this time before putting it back into the dock. The USB cable plugged into my iPhone and the charging transformer as expected, the iPhone made the connecting sound, and proceeded to recharge my iPhone correctly. So, I unplugged it, and looked carefully at the dock's connector pins, which appeared to be OK. I gave the pins a hard blow, just in case some dust was causing the issue, and plugged my iPhone back into the dock.
The iPhone made its dock connecting sound, the battery appeared on screen, and the charging symbol appeared in the top right corner, again, all as expected. So, I unplugged it and re-plugged it in several times, trying to see if I was going to get the Incompatible Device message, and tested the interface sounds several times. All seems to be working correctly, at the moment.
So, my hypothesis at the moment is that the problem I've been having over the past couple of weeks is not software related, but potentially hardware related, specifically to the Apple dock connector itself. I can't be sure at this point, but I will be testing this if the Incompatible Device message appears again and I start having the sounds turning off issue again.
For now, I'm marking this question as answered.
