Stops recording when headphones unplugged

I recently recorded a live performance and I unplugged the headphones from the jack on my Macbook Pro and the recording stopped. I don't recall this happening previously. Any thought, ideas or experiences with this happening?

I'm recording via a line in so the internal mic was disabled. I didn't get the "detected feedback" message and it stopped recording almost immediately after unplugging the headphones.
Basically: Analog output of an A&H Zed 14 mixer into the input on the Macbook Pro. The reason I removed the headphones from the Macbook was to check the mix at the mixer.

How do I stop Quicktime from stopping recording when it believes the signal is lost?

I'm trying to digitize old VHS home videos through Quicktime (latest version). But when the tracking goes a bit awry, Quicktime stops recording telling me "RECORDING STOPPED, TRY RECORDING AGAIN."
This is not true. It's just an instance of a bad part of the tape. It took me 13 days just to record one 6 hour tape because I had to start a new recording every few moments. I had hundreds of files!
How do I stop Quicktime from ending a video recording when it believes the signal is lost? Is there a way of turning this 'feature' off? If not, does Apple have a software that will do what I'm asking? Final Cut Pro X or something else?
Thank you!

Here is a screenshot of the error. As you can see, I got a full 4 seconds of video recorded before Quicktime X believed the signal was lost (just a bit of off tracking).

DVR says it's full and stops recording when it's not

About 10 times over the past 3 months, I've gotten an on screen message saying the dvr was full and it would stop recording. When I would go to check how full the drive was it would be 10%, 7%, 20%. Very rarely does it go above 50% full. Anyone have this happen to you?

HT5137 I have installed on my iPad Mini IOS 7.2 and I have downloaded the. Free Podcast app from Apple. When I plug in my ear buds, the podcast software stops. The play control actually changes to STOP. When I unplug the ear buds, the software works fi

When listening to the Apple-provided Podcast App on my iPad Mini, the moment I plug in my ear buds, the playback stops and no amount of tapping the play button will restart the playback. Then, when I unplug the ear buds, the play button functions normally. This has only begun since I updated to the new IOS 7.2
Regards...

Log in to the Developer forum. You will find instructions on how to install the lastest beta. Your problem is the beta you have installed has expired. All of them did on October 5; you will find hundreds of threads discussing this. If you have a beta it is assumed that you will continue as a beta tester, so a simple update using iTunes will not work.
If you no longer want to be a beta tester install the GM 7.0.2 by restoring from iTunes using DFU mode.

IPhone Randomly Plays Music when Headphones Unplugged

Hi, kind of a strange problem...
Sometimes, seemingly at random, when I unplug my headphones, music will start playing out of the speakerphone. It's always Achtug Baby by U2 (I see why it's Achtung, starts with A but why U2 I dont know, lol).
Just wondering if I'm somehow doing something that would cause this behaviour or if this is a documented bug.

There's already a thread on this here where you might be able to find answers/reasons http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7871760#7871760

My in-built speakers keep stopping working, when i unplug external speakers.

When i unplug my external speakers, to use the in-built ones, the sound goes off and the volume icon becomes greyed out (like this)
and in the preferences there's no option for internal speakers.
when i restart it comes back but it keeps happening.
i have lion, and a white, early 2008 macbook

Internal mic won't record when headphone is in the audio jack

I've tried toggling the monitor on and off and plugging and unplugging the headphones. I just want to be able to record a track and then layer vocals on top while listening to the first track through headphones. But when I attempt this it seems as though the internal mic becomes disengaged? PLEASE HELP! I just got this new mac a week ago.

Garageband > Preferences > Audio/Midi and choose built in mic as input.

Stops recording when program opened on top

I need to be able to open up a program over the AA3 screen in order to read a script from the screen and record it. Every time I try to do this, Adobe stops the recording. Is there a setting that can keep it recording under another program open on top - as did AA1.5?
Thanks
Nick

Does the new Nano pause when headphones unplugged

The mini does this. Does the new Nano? What about other models?

Yes, the new nano does pause when the headphones are pulled out. I just loaded up my green 4GB.

No sound through external speakers on my iphone 4s but headphones work fine! When headphones unplugged volume button shows headphones not plugged in! Tried all solutions suggested here to no luck?!??

No sound through external speakers but fine through headphones! Button on left is not on mute and checked all settings and all fine! Tried all solutions here but no luck! Sound gone before I updated the software??

You may have debris in your headphone jack blocking the sensor. Try blowing hard on the jack, and inserting/removing your headphones quickly multiple times to clear it.

Captivate stops recording

Captivate stops recording when I select a drop down icon in an application. This has just started, not a problem in the past

Hello,
Few questions:
What version of Captivate?
When you are referring to an application drop down icon, is Captivate recording up until that point and then it doesn't record you clicking on the drop down icon?
If so, what happens when you press the "Print Screen" key on your keyboard?

Recording stops when headphones are unplugged

I'm the FOH guy at my church, and I typically record the stereo output from the console for archival purposes. I'm using Audition CS6 on my Macbook Pro running Lion 10.7.5.
I'm recording the stereo track in edit (waveform) mode with headphones plugged into the MBP's built-in headphone port to monitor the recording. When I unplug my headphones, the recording automatically stops.
A quick check of the preferences didn't show me anything, so I'm wondering if anybody else knows of a solution to this?
Thanks!

My Lenovo laptop would do the same...it appears to send a message that the audio devices have changed when the computer switches from speaker to headphone or back.
One cure I know (but which might not be popular) is to forget using the rubbish in-built sound card in your Mac or PC and get an external USB (or Firewire or Thunderbold but USB is cheapest) audio interface. Even the cheapest, nastiest external interface will sound tons better than the built in and also eliminate sillyness like this.
That said, I just tried something on my built in Realtek sound destroyer and may have a suggestion. When I plug or unplug the headphones, I get a warning saying that the list of sound devices has changed and do I want to re-set my preferences. There's a tick box on that that says "Don't show me this message again" and, after ticking the next trial recording kept going as I plugged and unplugged my headphones multiple times.
I have no idea if this would help on other computer/soundcard combinations (and have even less idea about Macs) but, if you see that message, it's worth a try.

ITunes opens when I unplug my headphones

I have a late 2008 15" MacBook Pro running Mountain Lion. I use the headphones that came with my iPhone 4 with my MBP all the time. Every now and then, when I unplug the headphones from my MBP, iTunes will open. It doesn't happen every time, but it happens enough to irritate me. Any thoughts? I have searched for an answer to this and could not find anything.
For the record, this same thing happened on both Lion and Snow Leopard. Thanks.

When I record an audio track, there is a waveform. When I stop recording, the waveform disappears and becomes a straight line. It also disappears from the track edit window. But the sound is there. How can I stop the waveform from disappearing?

When I record an audio track using Logic Pro X, there is a visible waveform which appears as I record. When I stop recording, the waveform disappears and becomes a straight line. It also disappears from the track edit window. But the sound is still there. How can I stop the waveform from disappearing? And can I do something to view it after it has disappeared? Anyone know the anser?

In Logic:
Preferences/Audio Set Recording Delay to 0 <zero>
This should always be set to zero unless a specific set of circumstances exist and you're audio drivers do not report position correctly.
On occasion, usually when importing a Logic 9 project, Logic-X randomly changes this to a negative/positive number. It's actually a bug in Logic, as it should always display the waveform.

IPod starts playing when I unplug something from the headphone jack

Greetings,
I use Internet radio apps like Pandora and Live365. Often, when I stop the app and unplug the audio cable or earbuds, the iPod app will start playing the very first song (alphabetically speaking) in its library. At full volume, no less. So, I have to quickly hit the iPod button to bring it up, and then hit stop.
It doesn't happen every time, and I can't figure out if there is a particular sequence of events that triggers it, or if it's just random. Anyone else experience this?
Thanks,
DM

Due to various hardware issues, I'm on my 4th phone.
Each and every one has displayed this same "unplug and spill one's audio secrets" behavior, usually with incredibly annoying, embarrassing (I have weird, rather personal music tastes, never mind my preference in Podcasts), and potentially battery-draining results (if I leave the phone on my desk and attend a meeting for, say, an hour).
I've "reset" the phone/s (for this and other reasons) and this "feature" of the iPod turning on when I unplug the ear buds has persisted.
I have third-party earbuds (but it happened during all the time I used the Apple ear buds, too). They're the "Ultimate Ears MetroFi 200v" set; they sound great, but the "talk" button is not nearly as cleverly placed as with Apple's (it's too low-- near my belly-button-- and it also protrudes considerably).
The catch-22 for me is that if I just wrap my earbuds around the phone and shove it in my pocket, the button will activate at some point, and I'll find that the iPod has been playing for an hour... if I just yank the buds out (like I WANT to, and ought to be able to), the iPod starts playing, usually at the the loudest volume (leftover from whatever onion-chopping or laundry-folding activity saw me last listening to the phone out loud).
So, it's a bad feature. No option (that I can see) to disable it. A glitch? From Apple? C'mon... all FOUR of my phones have been otherwise perfect, lol...
Sorry for the long rant wherein I didn't even suggest any possible fixes. I'm just glad to have found others experiencing this problem, and glad that I am not the only one who hasn't found a solution.
