Why can't i hear the other party on my iphone?

I managed to solve this problem.
Here's how I arrived at the solution:
This morning I could hear the other party fine.
This afternoon I could not hear, except by using the speakerphone.
How could this be?
What had I done "wrong" between the morning and afternoon?
It turns out, I had downloaded a new app (wi-drive) and updated another (Google Translate)
So I just deleted those two apps.
Lo and behold, I could hear the other person.
My advice: if you can't hear the other person, just try deleting the last apps you downloaded before the problem started.
It might just work, as it did for me.
good luck

Typically this happens when a corporate Exchange account is added to the iPhone and the corporation requires a passcode to protect access to their system.

  • Why can't I hear the phone ring when I call somebody, but if I put the speaker on it works

    Why can't I hear the phone ring when I call somebody, but if I put the speaker on I can hear the ringing?

    Don't jump all the way to restoring just yet.  Check to make sure there's nothing in the headphone jack, and nothing covering the microphones (including the noise cancelling microphone at the top next to the headset jack)
    1. Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    2. Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    3. Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    4. Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • Why can I not hear the person I am video chatting with?  They can hear me.

    Why can I not hear the person I am video chatting with?  They can hear me...

    Hi,
    There can be several reasons.
    1) They have their Mic Off.
    In iChat > Video Menu the Microphone Enabled (or Audio Chat Enabled in Lion) needs to be ticked.
    2) the System Preferences > Sound > Input tab Volume is not high enough ?
    Slide it to the right (their end)
    2a) the Mic selected here is not the one select in iChat > Preferences > Video section > Microphone drop down.
    3) there is an issue with the speed differences in the internet services you both have.
    If they are fast and sending lots of data and your end cannot buffer fast enough frame get dropped to smooth out video.  There comes a point when the audio can no longer keep in sync and is dropped as well.
    In iChat menu > Preferences > Video section > Bandwidth Limit set 500kbps at both ends
    This also smooths out ISP variances.
    4) after that it tends to be combos of things such as Processors involved, the Speed of those Processors and the speed or bandwidth available to the computers involved.

  • Why can't i have the Facetime App on my iPhone 4?

    Why can't I have the Facetime App on my iPhone?

    Very Vague question.
    Why do you think that you cannot?
    Tap contacts, pick the contact you want to call, scroll down to the facetime button.
    What is your issue?

  • Why can't I see the iTunes store on my iPhone 5c?

    Why can't I see the iTunes store on my iPhone 5c?

    Well then it is somewhere on one of your Home pages or in a Folder:
    Do a spotlight search to see if it accidently got moved into a Folder: Swipe down in the center of the screen to bring up the Spotlight search and type in iTunes. If it is in a folder, the folder name will show up to the right.
    If it is not in a folder, but shows up on the Spotlight search, then you need to look at each Home screen to see if you can find where it got moved to.
    Finally, you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout, which will reorganize all of your icons so that the original Apple core apps are on the first Home screen as they were originally. Of course, if you have a lot of app icons that you have set up on specific Home screens you would have to move them all back to where you wanted them. But that should put the iTunes icon back on the first Home screen.

  • When making a call I suddenly can't hear the other person but my iphone 4 says it's still connected

    Phone is on orange contract and today during calls I can't hear the other person and the phone thinks we are still connected.  Help please!

    I've got that problem too sometimes. I think it's a mistake in iOS and it will be fixed in another iOS-update

  • HT1491 Why can I not hear the sound on a video I downloaded from iTunes on my ipad

    I downloaded the new episode of Sons Of Anarchy and I can't hear it. It looks fine though. I bought the season pass and was able to watch and hear the other episodes.

    There is no way to access videos directly from the lock screen.
    What exactly is being attempted here?

  • Why can't I hear the first note until it loops around?

    Hello Everyone,
    I have a littlr problem. I have quantized a drum pattern so that the kick drum is on every fourth of a bar. The problem is....I can't hear the first kick until it loops around. Any ideas as to why this is?
    Many thanks,
    JV

    Look at the piano roll (or the event list) and make
    sure that the first hit is on or just inside the
    first beat of the measure. It might sound fine, but
    if it's even a single tick in front of the first beat
    of your sequence, then you won't hear it, since
    playback starts at measure 1, beat 1, tick 1.
    Most of the time when this problem occurs it is not because the note is behind the downbeat. And with note chase=on that shouldn't present a problem anyay.
    And moving the beat one tick later than intended? If the tempo was right up there, say, 170 or something, maybe you wouldn't perceive that. But at slower tempos, a tick is a huge amount of time, especially for drums, and personally I wouldn't recommend changing the intended timing of your notes to suit the sequencer's inability to play things correctly on the downbeat, whatever the cause may be.
    The easiest workaround for this (and it's not perfect, but still a workaround) is to start playback slightly before the downbeat.

  • Why can't I hear the person I'm calling???

    Ok I know the subject line sounds like I'm a couple sandwiches short of a picnic.  But honestly just a couple days ago my Blackberry phone rang, I go to answer the call and I can't hear the caller on the phone, but they can hear me.  The only way I can have a conversation with anyone is by using my speaker.  Does anyone have any suggestions as to why this happening and how to correct the problem???

    I spent sometime with their on-line techs, they restored my phone to factory settings but the same problem was happening.  Because I've still have a warranty on my phone, I was able to have it replaced.
    If that happens to be your case, remember to back up or sync your phone with your computer.  You'll loose all your information if not.  Must be a batch of defective phones, we must be the lucky ones to have 2 of them huh?
    Good luck!

  • Why can I not hear the sound on my videos?

    I cannot hear the sound on my videos after I convert them for iPod use on iTunes. I can hear the sound before I convert them - what gives?

    Quicktime, Quicktime Pro and iTunes don't convert "muxed" ( muxed means multiplexed where the audio and video are stored on the same track) video files properly. It only plays the video and not the audio.
    See:iPod plays video but not audio.
    You need a 3rd party converter to convert the file with both audio and video.
    Videora is one, but there are others.

  • Why can't I hear the receiver of my call unless it's on speaker

    Every time I make a call the receiver of my call picks up but I don't hear the dialing or anything on my end.  The screen indicates that the call is in progress but there's dead air on my end.  Only when I press speakerphone i can hear the person on the other end.  The phone is only 3 weeks old.

    Have you removed the plastic protective film that is on the iPhone when it was shipped?
