When I play music on iphone5s and charging - I get feedback/buzz from noise cancelling headphones
This only happens when charging and using noise cancelling headphones (sennheiser PXC350).
I get a buzz, but if I touch the metal on top or bottom of phone the buzz goes. Electrical interference, if I turn the noise cancelling off, no buzz.
Other headphones are fine that aren't noise cancelling.
Any ideas if this is a fault with the phone?
Likely due to build up (and discharge) of static electricity (referred to as ESD). Ever scuff your feet on carpet and touch someone else? Similar concept here -- your iPad is getting charged up, probably due to movement against a nice generator like the nylon lining in your purse, and discharging through your headphones into your ears. This effect is often a bit worse in very dry climates. Perfectly harmless, but not comfortable.
To test this theory, walk around holding your iPad rather than putting it in your purse. Any better? If so, either carry your iPad or put it in something that is not going to generate static charge like the inside of your purse. Plastics and nylon are good static generators, so keep it away from those. Leather, silicone, rubber, etc. are pretty low generators, and pretty insulative to generators outside of them.

New iphone5 and can't get my photos from iCloud to show up. Why
I got a new iPhone 5 and I can't get any of my pictures from iCloud to show on it. They are all there on my iPad. Why can't I get them on the new phone.
Photo stream photos are only saved in iCloud for 30 days (even though up to 1000 will remain on your devices until deleted). If your photo stream photos are over 30 days old, they are no longer in iCloud.

Hi I use my phone for conference calls and use the microphone jack to connect to speakers. It doesnt work when making phone calls but when i play music on the phone the jack works with the external speaker.
Happy to have been of help. Hope all goes smoothly.
BTW, for the sake of others who may help you here, it's usually most polite if you mark the post that answered your question as being the one that "solves" it, not your own post. That's how people get points here, if a questioner marks their post as either "helpful" or "solving". It's not an issue for me, but for those just starting out in the forums it may be important to them. See:

Same with me nothing has changed. However what reduces it for me is if you change your battery settings to high performance. But it still does it, you will just find it will do it less.

I spilled some pop on the back of my iPad. I cleaned it off and everything seems to be going good but when I play music it will either play with no sound or play then continue with no sound. What can I do to fix this (without being costly, it's a iPad 2) this happens with other music apps too. Please I need help!
You can try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears.
Try again to see if the problem persists. If it doesn't work, there isn;t much anyone here can do for you. It may be a physical problem with your speakers. -
How do I prevent itunes from moving my music from its original place ie folders in an external drive when I play music from itunes. I have all my music in artist folders and separated by MPG3/MPG4 and FLAC folders within the artist folder and itunes moves the track/s whenever i try and load selected music to my ipod/iphone. I've tried to find some sort of preference to prevent this, but no joy? What am I missing?
Try opening iTunes preferences. Then click on advanced tab. Then uncheck "Copy files to iTunes media folder when adding to library." By default, iTunes copies music to its own media folder when you use iTunes to play the music.

If you are referring to the speaker(s) along the bottom edge, there is one speaker, one microphone.

The problem is with facebook, go to settings / facebook / your user name and delete your account, the do a hard reset (home+power for some seconds).
dont need to delete the facebook app! just delete your integrate account from settings

My iPhone 4S has no sound when I play music, videos and movies

Is the slider all the way to the right??
And no, if your phone is vibrating when you get texts/calls then you're not in Do Not Disturb. You would see a Crescent Moon symbol to the left of Battery % if it was on.
