Why does my music keep pausing and playing on my macbook Pro every time i put my headphones in?

Everytime i plug my headphones in my music starts playing and pausing, and i don't press the buttons on the headphones or the on mac.

Your  topic states Macbook Pro yet your system profile confirms you have a Mac Pro which is a desktop computer.  Which one are you having issues with? 
Which os version are you using? 
Which app is playing your music?

  • Why does my music keep pausing on its own (iPhone)

    Everytime i put my headphones in my music goes ballistic.  I'll listen to it for a few minutes then it will pause.  sometimes it will even not play in the head phones but on the phone itself.  has anyone else experienced this?  if so how did you solve this problem.  i already restored it via itunes and did a hard reset and that didn't help.

    Does the same thing happen if you use another set of headphones?
    If it does, there might be something in the headphone jack like lint, dirt, or something else. You might be able to get it out by connecting the headphones 5-10x or spraying compressed air into the jack.
    If it doesn't you might need to get those headphones replaced.

  • Why does my google keep asking if can use my current location  every time i use it, even if i say yes every time?

    N.B. This is also happening on my iphone 4.

    OK -Here's what worked for me.
    For iPhone:
    On your iPhone or iPod, in your preferred browser, go to www.google.com, and sign in to your account (if you aren't already logged in).
    Scroll down to the bottom of the page, and select "Settings"
    Under "Precise Location", select "Do not allow"
    Scroll to bottom, and "Save"
    For iPad:
    On your iPad, in your preferred browser, go to www.google.com, and sign in to your account (if you aren't already logged in).
    Click the "Settings" cog in the upper right corner, and choose "Search settings"
    Select "Location" from the left sidebar
    Under "Precise Location", select "No. Do not use..."
    Select "Save" to save your preference.
    When you do search for a specific location in google, it will use your general location, but there will be an option above it to "Use Specific Location" during that search, specifically. No need to leave it on all of the time!
    This will eliminate the popups - at least it did for me! I have Private Browsing enabled, and no issues so far. Next time you log in to your settings, it will default back to allowing precise location, so keep an eye on that!

  • Why does i tunes keep bouncing and not open after I have done an update

    why does i tunes keep bouncing and not open after I have done an update ?

    Hello, romani-jo. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    Try resetting your System Management Controller or SMC.  Try launching iTunes after processing these steps.  If the issue persists, try downloading a fresh copy of iTunes by accessing the second link below.

    If you go into Facebook settings, in the app section under your account, and delete the skype from your facebook apps, it appears to fix this issue.

  • Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing!

    Why does my itunes crash after start up with an "APPCRASH" error every time i open it?! I have been trying to fix this for weeks but all i can do it re-install it every other day which does nothing! I am desperate to get access to my itunes to get music on my phone and all of this just makes me want me to sell my iphone since there is no other way to add music to my phone. If things go get sorted soon you can say goodbye to my support.

    For general advice see Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.
    The steps in the second box are a guide to removing everything related to iTunes and then rebuilding it which is often a good starting point unless the symptoms indicate a more specific approach. Review the other boxes and the list of support documents further down the page in case one of them applies.
    The further information area has direct links to the current and recent builds in case you have problems downloading, need to revert to an older version or want to try the iTunes for Windows (64-bit - for older video cards) release as a workaround for installation or performance issues, or compatibility with QuickTime or third party software.
    Your library should be unaffected by these steps but there are also links to backup and recovery advice should it be needed.

  • I'm trying to play this new movie i bought with my macbook but every time i put the movie in it makes a noise and only stays there for 6 seconds then ejects itself how can i fix this problem?

    I'm trying to play this new movie i bought with my macbook but every time i put the movie in it makes a noise and only stays there for 6 seconds then ejects itself how can i fix this problem?

    Restart your phone,hold the home button and the off button down till the apple symbol comes up. If that doesnt fix it , you need to do a restore in itunes by connecting to itunes , click on your phones name to the left, then click restore in the center of the screen and restore from backup.

  • There is something wrong with the volumes buttons in my macbook pro, every time i pressed the one who raises the volume, it leads me to the screen where (i do not no what its called) the background is black with the date and time and a calculator.

    There is something wrong with the volumes buttons in my macbook pro, every time i pressed the one who raises the volume, it leads me to the screen where (i do not no what its called) the background is black with the date and time and a calculator. However, when i lower it, my safari tab goes out of the screen. What do you guys think i should do? I'm getting very nervous.

    You may want to try using the information in this article to adjust the behavior of your function keys to see if that resolves the behavior:

  • Why does all videos keep buffering and not play

    Why do videos keep buffering and play when I select them?

    I am in Florida, and  have a comcast business account and get download speeds of 22mbps (as tested).
    The Apple tv is hooked directly into the modem with ethernet.
    We have tried about 6 different routers with apple TV and none of them make the Apple Tv perform without stuttering and buffering.  So we decided to use direct hook up.
    I have called Apple repetitively because when trying to watch a trailer/preview, the preview stops and the buffering starts.
    This will also happen when watching movies.
    Lowering TV resolution to 600x480 does not help either.
    Apple fail to tell me where their Itunes servers are located, so it's impossible to do a traceroute to see if there's a problem on the way.
    Desperate with this situation I opened a DSL account with Centurylink :same problem!!
    It seems that Apple should fix their Apple TV product before placing a product on the market that does not perform as stated.
    We took this a step further, and purchased a few Apple Tv's which we are setting up with different Internet providers to see what the results are.
    You may think I have nothing better to do, but I'm building a case against Apple and shall get to the bottom of this. There are no excuses for placing faulty products on the market.

  • Why Does Disney Junior Keep Pausing/Buffering?

    I have my ATV (3rd Gen) hardwired to my network, so it's especially frustrating that Disney Junior keeps pausing during playing their shows. I've never had this issue with Netflix/Hulu/etc. It only seems to happen on the new Disney apps on the ATV. I have a hard time believing it's something on my end since every other app I use has no streaming issues. I put on a show on Disney Junior and it pauses every 10-20 seconds for 5-10 seconds. I switch over to Hulu Plus and watch an entire show with no pauses whatsoever.
    Is anyone else experiencing this?

    I have the exact same issue.  Anyone have any answers?

  • IPod 5th gen device keeps pausing and playing music randomly

    Self explanatory. Don't know why this started happening. I take good care of my iPod too. Resetting my iPod doesn't do anything. Sometimes Siri randomly pops up too. Even when my iPod is locked, these problems are still occurring. Please reply back to me ASAP

    If no earphones attached then:
    Try:
    - 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.
    -  Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • Why does my itunes keep freezing and give me the rainbow wheel of death?

    Whenever I am doing stuff on my computer it will randomly freeze up and I am almost positive it only happens when iTunes is open and playing. I have a lot of free space on my hardrive even though I have around 6000 songs and a bunch of movies on there. I just downloaded a bunch of games form the app store too that could be taking up space. Please let me know if you can help!

    what model year make computer do you have what os are you on how much ram do you have?
    go to launchpad (yeah I said it) utilities> system information.
    on the left hand side, hardware should be highlight and you will have all the information you need to give us.
    Feel free to exclude your serial number. you can do so in preview. But it doesn't really matter, and it would be nice to have a reference of it somewhere should it ever get stolen. it your choice. 

  • Why does my Mac keep freezing and applications not responding?!?

    Hello everyone, I have a mid 2009 MacBook Pro, 500gb HD, 4gb ram. The problem is that it keeps freezing. I am writing this on my iPhone because my laptop would probably just freeze up if I even attempted to open an application. The problem is that my laptop won't stop freezing up. As soon as I have any application open, it will stop being responsive, give me the beach ball spinning wheel thing, and I'll use command-option-escape to open the force quit menu (because at this point the mouse usually can me moved around the screen but just makes the system get worse) to force quit what ever applications I have open. Then finder will stop responding, and then nothing will work until I do a forced shut down (hold the power button down) and turn it back on again, where the same thing happens within a minute. I tried repairing permissions and doing a P RAM reset, but have had no success with either. Please help, this is ridiculous, I can barely use my laptop and I need it for school. Thanks,
    -Dylan

    Your issue sounds like the hard drive is failing or it was bumped or moved while it was operating and corrupted the data on the drive.

  • Why does my iPad keeps connecting and disconnecting from the new late 2013 iMac

    Hi there,
    I've recently bought a new late 2013 iMac and ever since then I'm not able to connect my iPad 2 to it. When I do connect it keeps connecting and disconnecting  again and again for some reason. The cable is fine and I've tried it with other devices. Just wondered why this is and whether you guys can help me out.
    Thanks a lot!

    Hi,
    I had the same problem and just found a solution. I tryed restoring all content and settings on the iPad (Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings). It took lots of time, however it didn´t work because when I connected the iPad and iMac the problem persisted.
    Then I thought it wasn´t an iPad problem but iMac OSX problem. So I searched the web for "Reinstall Mavericks" and found this http://support.apple.com/kb/PH13871?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US.
    It also takes like 6 hours with my internet speed. Next day I connected the iPad and everything is just fine.
    I described both processes because I don´t know if in the end the iPad reset helped in the solution.
    Hope that helps! good luck
