Volume switch off but IPOD plays through speakers

I was at a conference today and turned my iphone off so it would not ring. After about 5 hours I started messing with my phone (I know I shouldn't have but...) Anyways, all sounds are muted except IPOD functions. Songs and movies play through the speaker even when the mute swithch is activated. Anyone else have this? Is it in need of a fix or am I missing another place to mute the phone?

Page 37 of the iPhone User Guide describes the switch as a ring/silence switch.
Page 96 states that when set to silent, the phone will not play any ring, alert or effects sounds. It does play alarms set by the clock.
Go to Settings - Sounds on your iPhone to see what is controlled by the ring/silent switch. Don't fool with anything else while "in conference".

    What model iPod and iOS works and which does not?
    Sometimes a 4G iPod will not fully sead in the dock because its case configuration is different that previous models.
    Also, sometimes an iOS update breaks compatibility.
    Have you checked the dock manufactuer's support stie for compatibility?
    Sometimes this works:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: 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. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up                             
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

    ' and utterly lost. the iPod is Completely switched off but the utility "Find My iPhone" is installed

    - If you previously turned on FIndMyiPod on the iPod in Settings>iCloud and wifi is on and connected go to iCloud: Find My iPhone, sign in and go to FIndMyiPhone. If the iPod has been restored it will never show up.
    - You can also wipe/erase the iPod and have the iPod play a sound via iCloud.
    - If not shown, then you will have to use the old fashioned way, like if you lost a wallet or purse.
    - Change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod and report to police
    - There is no way to prevent someone from restoring the iPod (it erases it) using it unless you had iOS 7 on the device. With iOS 7, one has to enter the Apple ID and password to restore the device.

  • The flashlight in my iphone 4s keeps lighting even when it is switched off. I went through many articles and in those was mentioned presence of humidity could be one reason, but my phone was not prone to such conditions

    The flashlight in my iphone 4s keeps lighting even when it is switched off. I went through many articles and in those was mentioned presence of humidity could be one reason, but my phone was not prone to such conditions & it is the condition when i took it from its pouch. Kindly help

    If the phone is offline there is no way to track it or send a message to it.  You can place it in lost mode to lock it and send it a message (see http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmfc0f0165), but this will not take place until the phone goes back online, if it ever does.  If it does, you will get an email informing you.

  • I switched off my ipod touch 4g during an ios6 update

    it was during the ios6 update that i realised for some reason i did not want to update it because of what my friends told me, it had nothing beneficial for the ipod touch 4g, so i decided to switch off my ipod touch 4g and now it would not turn on the only thing that i could do with it was restart it which  i have done over 40 times and it either shows the apple logo and then goes dull or turns blue to yellow, yellow to white, grey to white etcetera.
    Can someone please help me i don't know what to do with it i've looked everywhere for a solution.
    and my dog bit through the top of my usb lead. **** you bellatrix
    thanks, Brittanny Pegg

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • FN+F11 turns volume on/off, but LED light remains red

    Pressing the function key FN+F11 switches volume on/off, BUT the LED light is always on and red.
    Pressing the function key FN+F12 switches wireless on/off, AND the LED light switches red/white accordingly.
    Any suggestions for a fix?  Alternatively is there a trick to disable the lights altogether?

    pressing "Erase Contents And Settings" button on that device.

    At the time, my iPod Touch was fully charged. After deleting everything, I pressed "ERASE CONTENTS AND SETTINGS" button.
    I switched off my iPod Touch button IN ERROR because the process world take long. I repeat: After deleting everything, I pressed "ERASE CONTENTS AND SETTINGS" button. I switched off my iPod Touch button IN ERROR because the process world take long.
    What am I supposed to do next?

    - What happens when you turn the iPod back on?
    - For a 1G and 2G Pod, erasing all contents and settings can take hours and you need to have it connected to a chargings source.
    - You may have to place the iPod in recovery mode and then retore via iTunes.  For recoverymode:
    iPhone and iPod touch: Unable to update or restore

    My Ipad got switched off while file transfering through bluetooth and not switching on

    If your iPad is not switching on then try a reset : press and hold both the home and sleep buttons for about 10 seconds when the Apple logo should appear (you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot).

  • How can I play music from the icloud using apple tv (2) controled by remote app  on iphone so the TV is switched off but stereo on

    I was blown away when I started using the new remote app with Apple tv to play music from my iMac on my best music speakers in the living room!!!  However there are still 2 things required to make things ultra simple:
    1 Not to have my iMac switched on to have to stream music to the Apple tv (I've now started using iTunes Match which has almost fixed this one)
    2 Not have to have my TV switched on to control my amplifier through the apple tv.  (I can do this using the remote app on the iphone but only for music streaming from my iMac it wont work for music I have in iCloud, apart from music now playing.  I can't search/browse any other music)
    If this is fixed it will be absolutely awesome!!! As my apple tv will replace all the HIFI separates apart form my amplifier and I can control what music my amp plays using the best user interface in the world my iphone/ipad
    Dylan

    Hi, I don't have this bug. I can play music through my apple tv with the TV switched off and use the apple remote app to control the apple tv.
    My problem involves:
    icloud music ----> broadband router ----> apple tv ---->music amplifier.  Using the remote app on the iphone to control whats playing.  This almost works but in the remote app you can only see the currently playing song, you can't search/browse your music in the icloud (itunes match).
    What does work is:
    iMac-itunes music ----> apple tv ---->music amplifier controlled by the remote app in the iphone with teh tv off.  I can view my itunes library with the tv off using the iphone remote app. I would like to do this but using my music in iCloud. That would be awesome!!!

  • Can I override the headphone jack to play through speakers?

    Macbook pro 15" early 2011, running mavericks 10.9.5
    Some cabling broke off in the headphone jack and I can't play sound through my speakers since it's still identifying headphones. I read that this is a mechanical switch and can't be fixed by software, but that was like a year ago.
    Is this still the case?

  • IPhone 4 won't play through speakers

    Recently, wheneven I dock my iPhone 4 into a docking station, it will not play through the speakers. It will charge. I had this checked by the Apple Store and they said that all the settings are correct and there is no damage to the pins. I have tried docking in a Fidelio and and Sony docking station. No sound comes out through the speakers but, again, the iPhone is charging. Can anybody help with this? The Apple person suggested it maybe something to do with the Bluetooth but I've turned that off and on, and it doesn't make a difference. Thank you for any help or suggestions.

    Have you tried a reboot
    Hold home+ sleep button down ,ignore slide to off until the Apple logo appears then release
    Generally if you get no replies it will be because now one has a clue with the info you have provided
    ie as in what troubleshooting have you done .

  • Some qt only plays through speakers, not soundcard

    Has anyone had this where about 30% of the time qt is only heard through the speakers, even though all the settings are for the soundcard only?
    computer/see below
    soundcard-motu traveler
    all updates are "current"
    thanks

    I don't know if I can word this differently.
    I do allot of music and sometimes on the net, there are sound clips. Sometimes these clips will play through the soundcard, sometimes not..I have changed the sample rate and that works sometimes....but it's not a solve-all.
    Also, lately, if the soundcard is off, I can't play though the apple built-in sound device......
    is there something I am doing wrong?

  • How to get audio to play through speakers

    I have a Vizeo TV smart monitor, an Apple TV (of course), and a DVD/Receiver. A nice set of speakers are hooked up to the DVD player.
    I introduced the Apple TV to this family recently. The Apple radio stations played through the speaker in the Vizeo TV and was not so good. Then I bought a optical video cable and used it to connect Apple TV to the DVD receiver. That worked brilliantly for a while and the blues songs from the blues station on Apple TV was coming through in full stereo through the speakers.
    This worked for a while but more recently when I turned the system on again to listen to the same station, the sound was coming through the tv monitor's single speaker, not my mildly expensive nice ones. Does anyone know what's going on? btw Apple TV is connected to the tv monitor on HDMI3 and I have tuned the monitor to HDMI3 so that should be consistent.
    Thanks,
    Bill

    that what you're asking is why the original appletv the alu one don't support airplay when
    the airport express do right?
    guess it's a choice from apple maybe it required a software update as airplay was "invented" long after the last atv1g os update and rolling out an os update for a discontinued product as the
    first appletv was osX and intel x86 based
    and it's replacement atv2 is ios and Arm based
