Video out from the headphone jack died... 30gb 5g

Hi all.
So, I have a 30gb 5g ipod. I have played video out of the headphone jack to a tv for years now. I have the apple version of the video out cable. So, recently, the video stopped playing. The audio plays. YES, it is set to tv out = on, NTSC. This worked fine. Now no video. Video DOES play on the ipod itself. And, I bought an expensive dock cable that has composite out and that does work for video. So, I am just wondering what happened to my video from the headphone jack. I guess I could try to get it fixed, but is it worth it? Any ideas would be appriciated! Thanks!!

OK, I was DETERMINED to figure this one out...simply because it USED to work...
Somehow (last 'update' I assume)...my 'TV out' was turned off.
On my 80GB model, it was under menu > videos > video settings > TV Out
I just turned it 'on' and I was back in business...of course it doesn't make up for last weekend, when I was out of town trying to get the darn thing to work...but at least it works now.
Hope this helps.

  • Ideapad S400u - Noise coming out from the headphone jack

    I also have this annoying noise coming out from my headphone.
    It happens while the notebook is charging/plugged.
    Could anyone help me?
    My lenovo is Ideapad S400u - Windowns 8.1 - 64 bits.
    Thank you,

    Igor,
    Welcome to the forum!
    Can you describe this noise?  Is it coming from the area around the headphone port?  If you plug headphones into the port, does the noise go away or change?   Is the outlet you are using for charging grounded?
    Thanks

  • HT201471 Does anyone know if video comes out of the headphone jack like the Itouch does on a Ipad3?

    I was wondering if the video out put comes out of the headphone jack on a Ipad3 like it does on a Itouch?

    No. Video will need to be shared via Home Sharing, Airplay or using an AV adapter.

  • How can I remove the background sound from the headphone jack for my MacBoo

    for my MacBook Air problem adding music intensifier (Panasonic ST-HT1000) to give it an unpleasant sound background that sounds like a whiz, it's not so loud, but it is an unpleasant .. after a short time can get used to, but the fizz does not pass, however, believe that it is a big problem.
    Further I notice that when MacBookAir disconnected from the charger, it remains quieter sound.
    At first thought that the headphone jack (3.5 mm Headphone:
    Connection: 1/8-Inch Jack) or wiere have problem, but tried 3 different cables, but that does change enything, the problem remains.
    When I added iPhonu3GS playing - the background sound were not, then everything is OK!

  • Internal speakers suddenly will not unmute.  My headphones work, and there is a red light coming from the headphone jack

    I put my volume on mute a few weeks ago, and I don't know if I have used it again since then or not, but now the volume will not unmute.  There is a red light glowing out of the headphone jack.  Sound through headphones works.  I've tried updating and restarting my computer.  Help?

    No, not forceful - gentle.
    A PRAM-reset might also help:
    Shut down the computer.
    Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
    Turn on the computer.
    Immediately press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.Continue holding the keys down until the computer restarts, and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
    Try this a few times.

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. 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 iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • Digital Audio Noise from the Headphone Jack

    I have been searching for a while to see if anyone else has this problem.
    I have random faint digital noise (bleeps, bloops, and whirls) from my headphone jack. This happens regardless of application. I can get it going good by just tossing the volume bar back and forth on the sound pref panel.
    I have considerably less of this from the line out but still detectable noise.
    I have disconnected everything non essential from the Mac Pro and my power outlet are reduced to a minimum. (monitor and Mac)
    I have tried numerous headphones including Etymotic ER•6 and Sony MDR-7505.
    This has always been present in 10.4.7 and 10.4.8. Like I said, its faint in volume - but it gets annoying!
    I have read the following below and believe these do not apply to me because this is not an external powered device.

    I found out today what is causing the noise on my Mac Pro!
    Our next door neighbor has a really high power HAM radio that I am picking up static and transmissions from. I thought I was going insane when I heard weird voices coming out via my headphones. I know it is our neighbor because I heard him relay his name and location. Had to get my wife to listen to prove I was not going crazy.
    Here is the weird thing. I do not have AirPort or BlueTooth on the MacPro...so I cannot figure out how the transmission is permeating the Mac. Could it be a shielding issue on some internal component?
    Thanks!

  • No sound from the headphone jack

    MacBook Intel, purchased Jun 2007, Leopard 10.5.1 here.
    The problem - about two weeks ago headphones stopped to work. The effect is: I plug them into the headphone jack, the preferences show that sound output changes to headphones, the sound comes out of the headphones then after between 20 to 50 seconds it is cut and goes dead. Removing the jack and plugging it again gives another 20-50 seconds of sound.
    Checked five different headphones + one set of external speakers. Same effect. Checked with different audio sources inside the system. Same effect.
    Checked system config - everything fine, OS "thinks" the headphones are on but the sound is cut in less than a minute.
    Did reset as described (switch off, remove power sources, hold power button for 5 seconds, power on) - this brought back the familiar sound when the computer powers on (was silent previously, though I didn't notice it) but the headphone effect persist.
    What can I do besides sending to Apple for repair?

    if the start up didn't have the normal tone then that means that when you restarted/shutdown the computer then you had the volume on either mute or down very low..
    So i assume that your computer speakers work fine...
    i think that it may be the computer switching to mute all the time when an external device is plugged into the headphone jack.... either way you have 5 months left on your warranty and i would take advantage of that or you may be kicking yourself in july...
    cheers

  • Does anyone else notice the light from the headphone jack on their white iPhone 4?

    I noticed that whenever i turn on my lockscreen or whenever my iphone's screen is on, you can see light from the audio headphone jack. Anyone else have this problem? ( Iphone 4 white)

    Clarification, iPhoneMac is correct. There is light noticible at the bottom of the Headphone Jack.
    However, when I responded, I checked the 6 iPhone 4 here and none of them showed this in lit room normal usage. In Dark Room especially with the Screen Brightness turned up you can see a bit of light (glow) at the very bottom of the Jack, if you look right down the barrel.

  • How do I get a good line level from the headphone jack from my latest model iMac?

    My house is wired for analog sound and have for years used my iPod and iPhone to send an analog signal to my amplifier which drives speakers in multiple rooms. When I try this on my brand new iMac I get a buzz. Is there a setting or patch cable that can give line level analog audio out of my iMac?

    There is no audio out any longer on the new iMacs.
    Not true.   All the iMacs have audio out, including the current models:
    Headphone/optical digital audio output (minijack) - this can be used for line output also
    Support for Apple iPhone headset with microphone
    The current models don't have an audio input.

  • What do i do if my (a.) my itunes no longer detects my ipod, and (b.) no sound comes out of the headphone jack? The ipod still turns on, operates, and charges.

    My ipod still works as far as powering up and operating is concerned, but it suddenly stopped outputting a signal through the sound jack. Also it no longer is detected by itunes in the source list.

    It would be odd if both of those problems happened at the same time, since they seem unrelated (unless you dropped the iPod or got it wet or had some other accident).
    Check the other end of both of those connections first.  Try a different set of headphones.  Try a different docking cable.  Try a different USB port.  Make sure the computer has been restarted since having this problem.
    If it still powers up to the main screen, and seems to play songs (although you can't hear them), that probably means the hard drive is still working.  That's good, because it's the most valuable part, and the part that usually breaks first (on an iPod that has a hard drive).
    If you can't get it working, you might consider getting a broken iPod on eBay.  Chances are good that it is broken because of a bad hard drive (unless the description makes it clear that it's another problem), and the other parts (except maybe the battery) are likely to be OK.  You can then swap its bad hard drive for your iPod's hard drive.  Be sure to get the same type of iPod, including the thickness, because the 5th gen iPod came in two thicknesses (corresponding to the thickness/capacity of the hard drive mechanism).
    This is one web site with instructions for disassembly
    http://www.ifixit.com/Device/iPod_Original
    But don't spend too much money on it.  The hard drive may appear to be working now, but you never know when it might fail. 

  • HT4806 Mac mini digital audio out through the headphone jack

    I'm misled by this sentence for audio out port from the support page: "For digital audio, you can use Apple iPhone headset with microphone".
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5539
    It is there for all mac minis starting from 2010 model.
    Does it mean electrical digital signal? Any chance to get S/PDIF coaxial signal?

    If an optical signal is OK,  you just need one of these:
    http://www.amazon.com/dp/B00016W6Y6
    To convert the optical signal to a co-ax one will need a more complex/expensive convertor.
