Sound not playing through iPhone 4s speakers in Music - the volume bar doesn't show up.

When I want to listen to music without headphones, the music doesn't play because the volume bar is absent. Why is this happening and how do I fix it?

Try resetting the iPhone by holding the Lock and Home buttons simultaneously for 10-15 seconds or until the phone restarts and you see the Apple logo.

    Have you copied your content over from your old computer and onto the new on ? If not, and you still have your old computer, then there a number of methods described on this page which you can use to copy your library over : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4527 . If you no longer have your old computer then have you got a backup of your content that you can copy onto the new computer and add into iTunes ?

    Restart iPhone: Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for phone to restart.

  • Sound not playing through any device.

    Sound will not play through any device I try. I tired re installing all the drivers messing around with the playback device
    and sound mixer and tried going through the audio jack in the back the headphone jack in the front hdmi to my tv and usb wireless headset none of them worked. and tried them all on with something other than my pc and the devices themselves work. i honestly
    dont know what else to try is it something with windows or maybe my graphics card or something else? please help.

    Hi Kevinwido,
    When did this issue occur ?Have you made any modifications to the machine ? Will the built-in sound device work ?Have you tried to update the motherboard from the manufacturer website to have a check ?
    You may need to download the sound card driver from the manufacturer for the sound devices to have a check.
    If only the outer device won`t work and both of them are USB devices ,it is recommended to reinstall the USB controller driver, too .
    If the issue occured recently ,we can perform a system restore to recover the machine to a previous point to have a check. Please note we will miss some configurations after the restore point .
    Best regards

  • My iMac will not play through it's speakers. Also, can't adjust the sound settings because it shows as non changeable.

    When I press any of the sound keys on my keyboard (mute, louder, quieter), the normal thing on the bottom pops up when you change the volume using the keyboard keys. However, the speaker icon appears dark gray with a slash through it. The volume shows all the way up, but below the volume there is a little circle with a slash through it. When I went to Sound under System Preferences, I could not change anything. It all appeared as if there was no setting for that option. For example, I couldn't check or uncheck any of the boxes under 'Sound.' I don't know what the problem is. I have researched it and seen other problems similar to this, but I can't find a good, valid answer as of what will fix this problem. Please help!  Thanks!

    Could be one of 2 problems. Is there an optical cable plugged in to the headphone jack?
    If not it seems you have the same problem as I had. My iMac got put in for repair and they damaged a little switch in the headphone jack, if it's under Applecare they will fix it. If not carefully try a cotton bud (Q-tip in America) in the port.

  • Sound not playing through internal speakers or headphones

    Okay, so I am wanting to listen to audio, but it is not working through my speakers or headphones. Last time that this happened, I know that it had something to do with airplay, since I remember doing something with airplay. I have no idea what is causing this this time, but if you need any additional details, just ask.

    Have you tried a PRAM reset?

  • HT201335 I want to watch an iTunes rental video on my MacBook Pro but stream the sound to my Airport Express linked speakers.  However re Airplay icon doesn't show up in iTunes when playing the rental video.  Is there a way around that?

    I want to watch an iTunes rental video on my MacBook Pro but AirPlay the audio to my AirPort Express linked speakers.  However the AirPlay icon isn't available when arching the rental video in iTunes.   Is there another way?  Do I need to but an AppleTV?  I don't own a TV, hence why I want to watch on my MacBook Pro.

    With or without an Apple TV you can't send video to one device and audio to another using AirPlay.

  • Sound not playing through speaker or headphones

    Hi all
    My iPhone 4 has developed a problem - I get no sound at all, not through the speakers, or by plugging in the headphones.
    No app sounds, no key sounds, no phone call sounds - nothing!
    I've tried cleaning all the fluff out of the headphone jack and the dock connector, I've also tried a full restore.
    One other odd thing that happens is that if I open the Music app, it has now started cycling forward through the track listing by itself
    Any ideas?

    Did you already try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting the phone, but it can cure some glitches.
    If this does not work, try to set it up as new device without using the latest backup, to rule out a software issue.
    If still no sound, you might have a hardware problem, and the phone needs to be serviced.

  • Why do some songs not play through entirely when they have in the past?

    In both iTunes and on my iPhone and iTouch, certain songs that used to play completely now stop with just less than a minute left on them.  I checked "Info" on the songs and nothing is set to stop the song before it reaches the end.  Any thoughts?

    It is from iTunes not the web. The link is a screenshot of what happens in iTunes.

  • My ipod is not playing through my headphones but plays out loud

    My ipod is playing music out loud but will not play through

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem.

  • Music and videos start playing fine but randomly stop and the volume bar disappears

    I have an iPhone 4S and run 6.1.3.  I start to play music or videos (youtube, ESPN, Netflix, any) and they start to play fine but then randomly stop.  The volume bar disappears as well.  But then it reappears and I can play it again.  When I do so it plays about 30 seconds, sometimes less, and pauses again.  I have to repeat the process.  Any idea how to fix or what might be causing the problem?

    Try a reset:
    - hold both the home button and sleep/wake button down at the same time
    - the iPhone will turn off(keep holding) but as soon as you see the apple logo appear release both buttons
    Also make sure none of the LCI have been set off especially the one in the charging dock of the iPhone. Read the article below for help in checking this:

  • After connecting my Apple TV this morning, I have no sound. It is hooked up to play through my television speakers. Any ideas on how to get sound? Also, I tried hooking it up through my surround receiver, but could not get it to come up on my ty screen.

    Have you tried adjusting the "Audio Out" and the "Dolby Digital" settings in settings > audio and video? It may be worth trying several combinations of these settings, although typically it is the "Dolby Digital" setting that causes most problems for users.
    Also make sure that you have correctly mapped the input port on your sound system to the output, if you are unsure about how to do this, refer to the manual that came with your sound system.
    Have you tried playing various content sources (i.e. podcasts, music, iTunes Store video, other video etc), do you have the same problem with all types of content? If you use optical you might also check that you can see a red light at the end of your optical audio cable. Is your optical audio cable plugged straight into your sound system, or does it go through a switch or other device?
