What if your speakers aren't working on iPod

My iPod keeps on telling me that my headphones are plugged in and I don't know how to resolve this problem!

- 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.

  • What do you do if some of your keys on your keyboard aren't working ?! Any suggestions ??

    What do you do if some of your keys on your keyboard aren't working ?! Any suggestions ??

    Yeah, a portable bluetooth keyboard is the cheapest solution. You can replace the top deck yourself without too much tinkering if you are a little mechanically minded. Most replacement services on the net charge from $150 to replace it. You can buy refurbished top decks from $50 or so. Unfortunately, the keyboard is part of the top case and not an individual part.
    One thing to note: If you do decide to buy one and DIY, make sure you get the exact one for your model cos the connectors do vary slightly.

    My sleep/wake button is now not working and than I faced problems with my sound, now my iphone speakers aren't working? What shall I do?

    The problem isn't solved after the restore, shall I bring my phone to the AppStore? Will they give me a new one? Or I should pay for that. Warranty is until December 2013;)

  • HP HP 15-r006la speakers aren't working

    I recieved my new laptop but the speakers aren't working. Volume mixer shows activity even though I can't hear anything. When I plug-in my headphones, they work just fine.

    Hi there @Fabmoral 
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand that you are getting no sound from your speakers, but that headphones work fine. I am happy to help.
    I assume you are referring to the internal speakers on the notebook, if I am wrong let me know. With that in mind please take a look at this page:
    No Sound from Speakers (Windows 8)
    Let me know if that fixes it.

  • Audigy 2 ZS - Rear Speakers Aren't Working

    *Audigy 2 ZS - Rear Speakers Aren't Working-Well, before on XP, just restarting, and re-installing my drivers worked flawlessly.
    Since XP, I've installed W7 x64 Bit, and the rear never worked, but I didn't mind, as I was always using my headset for gaming, but now that I've stopped gaming so much, and listen to music much more, I've been wanting my rear speakers back!
    Anyways, I've tried the nati've, original Creative drivers, no go.
    I'm using Daniel K's right now, no go.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Here's my rig-
    Windows 7 x64 Bit - Ultimate
    AMD Athlon II X4 620 @ 2.6GHZ
    Biostar A770E3 Motherboard
    Corsair DDR3 333mhz 4GB - Two sticks - Dual Channel
    BFG Tech GTS 250
    Creative Audigy 2 ZS
    600W Power Supply

    I got this problem when I updated to the new drivers, so that might be your problem since you recently updated. Check to make sure that your speakers settings are for 5. and not stereo. Also make sure that the speaker system is set to receive 6 channel input instead of stereo -- I know my Logitech 5500 system can set to stereo even if it is receiving 6 channels in.

  • HP ENVY 17 Notebook My speakers aren't working

    Hi. Can anyone help me? I have recently updated my hp to windows 8.1 64 bits but I hadn't any problem till yesterday. I often hear music on my laptop and yesterday I plugged (for the first time since I have the laptop - it has a month or two) my headphones. The music was sounding different from the way I was used to hear on the laptop and so I disconnected them. After that I pressed the play again but I didn't hear any sound from the speakers. Aparently the are on, the drivers are updated, I don't undestand. My serie number is 5CG3260W51

    Hi,

  • My Macbook Pro speakers aren't working and the headphone jack is emitting a red light when I try to play something with sound. HELP!

    The question says it all. It worked perfectly last night and stopped working this morning. A whole day has gone by and the speakers still don't work. I've plugged in headphones and that works.
    When I try to increase volume or decrease volume, it shows me the mute sign which makes no sense at all. When I try to unmute, it stays muted.
    HELP I'M ON THE VERGE OF BREAKING THIS P.O.S. LAPTOP

    SO I just now had the same problem. A million threads online suggested to try inserting headphones, toothpicks, or even qtips to try and switch the "switch" inside the headphone jack. Everyone had great results from using the toothpick method. Well that didn't work for me. here's what FINALLY WORKED!!--> I wrapped a toothpick in fashion tape (fashion tape is basically stretchy double sided tape. If you don't have any ask some girls and someone will have). My thought was that maybe this "switch" didn't need to be flicked or pushed like a button. Maybe it was stuck in like a button that has been pushed in. I used the sticky toothpick to pull up the button/switch. Basically, take the toothpick and pressdown on the switch (supposedly the botton is inside the jack at the 6 or 7-0clock position) and then press the toothpick away (so that you are pushing in the opposite direction [1-oclock]). do this multiple times so you're flicking the toothpick back and forth. Just make sure you press firmly enough in the 6-oclock position so the tape can get stuck to the button.
    Two tips for this method:
    1) I had tried a manicure q-tip first, which in hindsight could've cleaned out the headphone jack, facilitating a surface that can get stuck to the fashion tape effectively.
    2) You can see in the photo attached that I wrapped the tape on the toothpick a little past the edge so that there was extra tape on the end of the toothpick. That was (and this is just my theory) to make up for the fact that toothpicks have a tapered end. I figured that having this extra loose bit of tape at the end would allow me to reacch into any nook or crany of the headphone jack where this mysterious "button" might be lurking.

  • IHome speakers aren't working for radio!

    I tried to plug my ihome speakers into my computer, and when they wouldnt work i read the manual, which says not to do that cause it will damage the equipment. And the speakers are really good! It still plays for my ipod, but when i try to play the am/fm radio, there is no sound. Did I completely ruin them or is there hope? If anyone can help i would really appreciate it! thanks!!!

    Apple doesn't make iHome. You might try their website for help:

  • Speakers aren't working on i pod touch 5. Very crackly and muffled.

    Very crackly and muffled. I followed the directions to reset settings, didn't work. then I did a total restore. didn't work. Any ideas?

    - 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.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.
