Why Earpods doesn't work on Ipod Shuffle 3G?

I just got my new earpods because I have an ipod shuffle that I didnt use for a couple months because I lost the earphones, but it seems this new ones dont work, I cant turn volume up/down or anything I can just ear the music with the default volume,,, in the manual it says it is suppose to work on iPod shufle 3rd generation or later... I think it is a lie.. or somebody found a way to make them work yet?

Only Apple would know the answer to why they won't work with the 3G.

  • HT1202 why can't I charge me ipod shuffle on another computer? My "home computer" is the one at work.

    why can't I charge me ipod shuffle on another computer? My "home computer" is the one at work.

    So you are trying to connect your iPod Shuffle to another computer you don't normally sync it with is that correct?  And it won't charge for some reason?  How are you connecting it?  To a USB or a USB port located directly on the PC?

  • One reason why commandLink doesn't work in dataTable

    Ok, so I think I've got an explanation why commandLink doesn't work in dataTable when the model bean is request scoped. Maybe somebody can tell me if I'm wrong.
    I have a model bean that generates table rows based on some input criteria (request parameters).
    So, we validate the inputs, apply them to the bean and render the page. Once the inputs have been applied to the bean, a request for table rows returns rows, no problem.
    However, we put a commandLink in each row, so we can expand the details. Maybe we even get smart and repeat the input row-generating criteria as a hidden field in the page.
    Unfortunately, when the user hits the commandLink, the list page simply refreshes, maybe even w/out table rows. The user doesn't get the details page as expected.
    Why not?
    Because: in the DECODE phase (even before validation and before "immediate" values have had their valueChangeListeners called), we ask the model bean for the table rows, so we can decode the commandLinks. Unfortunately, in "decode" phase, the request-scoped model bean has not had its row-generating criteria updated (that happens in the "update model" normally, or at the END of the decode phase if we got cute by (1) setting the "immediate" attribute on the row-generating criteria to "true" AND (2) set a valueChangeListener to allow us to update the model bean early. The END of the decode phase isn't good enough -- in the middle of that phase, when we're attempting to deocde commandLinks, the model bean has no citeria, so there's no row data. No row data means no iteration over commandLinks to decode them and queue ActionEvents. So, we march through the rest of the phases, process no events, and return to the screen of origin (the list screen) with no errors.
    So, what's the solution?
    One solution is to make the model bean session-scoped. Fine, maybe we can store a tiny bit of data in it (the search criteria), so it's not such a memory drag to have it live in the session forever. How do we get that data in? A managed property in faces-config.xml with value #{param.PARENT_KEY} won't work because it's assigning request-scoped data to a session-scoped holder. JBoss balks, and rightly so. Do we write code in the model bean that pulls the request parameter out of thin air? (FacesContext.getExternalContext()....) I don't really like to code the name of a specific http request parameter into the bean, I think it's the job of the JSP or faces-config.xml to achieve that binding (request parameter to model propery). Plus, I'd be sad to introduce a dependency on Faces in what was previously just a bean.
    Is there a better way?
    In my particular situation, we're grafting some Faces pages onto an already-existing non-Faces application. I don't get the luxury of presenting the user an input field and binding it to a bean. All I've got to work with is a request parameter.
    Hmm, I guess I just answered my own question. if all I've got to work with is a request parameter, some ugliness is inevitable, I guess.
    I guess the best fix is to cheat and have the bean constructor look for a request parameter. If it finds it, it initializes the criteria field (which, in my case, is the key of an object that has a bunch of associated objects (the rows data), but could be more-general d/b search criteria).
    (I looked at the "repeater" example code in the RI, but it basically statically-generates its data and then uses 100% Faces (of course) to manage the paging (where "page number" is essentially the "criteria").
    Comments? Did I miss something obvious?
    John.

    ...or I could just break down and do the thing I was hoping to avoid (outputLink instead of commandLink):
    <h:outputLink value="/faces/Detail.jsp">
      <f:param name="PARENT_KEY" value="#{bean.parentKey}"/>
      <h:outputText value="#{bean.label}"/>
    </h:outputLink>It's still a "hardcoded" parameter name, but at least the binding is in the JSP and faces-config.xml, not the bean Java code.

  • IOS 7 doesn't work on iPod touch 4g, so does the mean its the end for this device? Or are they going to make updates specially for lower devices an apps that are compatible ??

    iOS 7 doesn't work on iPod touch 4g, so does the mean its the end for this device? Or are they going to make updates specially for lower devices an apps that are compatible ??

    Which apps remain compatible will be up to the individual developers who sell those apps. There will be no further iOS updates, but those aren't really necessary to continue to use and enjoy your device. I still have an iPad 1 running on iOS 5, and it is fully functional.
    The App Store has an app called VintApps 3.1.1 that is specifically geared toward iOS 3.1, however, you would probably be able to run most of those apps on your iPod, and considering that there will be a rather large market for iOS 6 apps users, it is not likely that you will see a significant reduction in choices any time soon.
    It is not the end for the device in any sense except that it is at it's ultimate iOS level. And again, I have an iPad that is at it's ultimate iOS level (iOS 5), and I get new apps all the time that work for both my iPad and my iPhone that runs iOS 6.1.1
    No need to fret....

  • What speakers will work with iPod shuffle 2G, what speakers will work with iPod shuffle 2G

    What speakers will work with iPod shuffle?

    Any speakers that are self-powered (has its own power supply), and connect using standard 1/8-inch "mini-sterio" jack (the same connector on regular headphones).

  • Confused as to why this doesn't work...

    I wrote this code correctly, but it doesn't seem to work. I'm not sure if I'm leaving something out or not using something correctly. If anyone can tell me why this doesn't work, it would be greatly appreciated!
    P.S. in the actionPerformed method, I want to put the window to close once someone clicks an "ok" button. How is this done? I've tried using setDefaultCloseOperation(3), but it doesn't seem to work.
    peace,

  • Why FaceTime doesn't work in Saudi Arabia ?

    why FaceTime doesn't work in Saudi Arabia ?

    we have stores sell apple products some of them sell with faetime at a high rate,
    and some other sell apple products without facetime at a normal price.
    finaly we need apple stores in Saudi Arabia to prevent this fraud.
    thank you
    what you're saying here is that some people parallel import apple products around the normal channels and they are from other countries so they havent got facetime blocked
    and others normally import apple products and they are blocked
    and then you go on believing that if apple had a store in saudi things would be better rest asured that if they did they would sell products with facetime blocked

  • Why can't I get my ipod shuffle to do anything when I know the battery is full

    Why can't I get my Ipod shuffle to do anything? Before it stopped playing, saying or doing any thing I checked battery and it was full! This has happened before with another Ipod shuffle and I took it back. well, my new one is doing it. It plays for a while and then it decides to stop. Has anyone else experienced this?
    Headphones in properly. Check !
    Battery full. Check !
    I can not even see a light when I switch it on and off. No voice over to tell me anything. Zero music!
    Played music for about 1-2 hours max. Should be more than this! Checked battery before it stopped anyway and this was fine.
    Help!

    Does the iPod connect to other networks?
    Does the iPod see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iPod connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                 
    - 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.
    - Power off and then back on the router
    - Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Speaker doesn't work on ipod 5th generation. Why?

    Just received a 5th generation ipod touch and the external speaker doesn't work. There are plenty of inaccurate answers on many sites. Am I overlooking something in the setup of the device or does this mean a trip to the Apple Store while on vacation?

    There are not settings.
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.

  • ITunes 11 Autofill Not Working On iPod Shuffle

    I had to reinstall iTunes 11 following a reinstall of Windows and now iTunes will no longer "Autofill" my iPod Shuffle.
    Formerly, Autofill would randomly refill my iPod Shuffle with tunes from my iTunes library, but it no longer wiill.
    When I select "Autofill" the status bar at the top indicates it has begun a synchronization and iTunes seems to "hang" at that point.  I am never presented with the screen showing the "random" tunes selected or showing them being updated on my iPod Touch.  After some bit of time, iTunes reports that it could not add any more songs to my IPod Shuffle because there was no more space on it.
    As of now, my iPod Shuffle is "stuck" with the tunes it had on it before I reinstalled iTunes as part of a Windows reinstall..........the Autofill feature of iTuned 11 doesn't appear to be working.
    I've worked on this for hours and hours and tried every combination of settings I can think of with innumerable reboots to have Windows 7 re-recognize the iPod Shuffle. (It disappears following the "hang" of iTunes 11.  I'm out of ideas and have no more time to expend on this. Oh....and it will not let me reset my iPod Shuffle back to factory state eitehr.
    QUESTION: Does anyone know how to "fix" this............or is this a bug in the current release of iTunes 11?

    Hello,
    I have the exact same problem as you do. I tried updating iTunes to the latest version (10.0) and my iOS on my iPod Touch (2nd generation, 8GB) to the latest version (4.0.2) and unsyncing all of my apps to see if they were conflicting with the top tens list somehow. However, my top tens list is still blank/empty.
    Let me know if you find a fix.
    Thanks

  • Belkin stereo doesn't work on iPod Touch 2g??!!

    Hi,
    I just bought that little Belkin stereo attachment for audio recording using my iPod Touch 2g, but it doesn't seem to work! Or at least I don't know how. The manaul for the stereo only has directions for using it on iPod nano 2g, iPod nano 3g, iPod 5g, and iPod classic! What the heck?!! I asked the clerk at Apple Store whether there's a stereo attachment for my iPod Touch, and this was what he gave me.
    The last day for me to return this thing is Thursday, so can someone please help me out. I'll call the place tomorrow but for now, does anyone know if these 2 devices are compatible?
    Thanks a lot!

    Why don't you try contacting Belkin - as they make the device, they would be the obvious people to ask for a definitive answer. You'll probably find Belkin's contact details, web address etc. on the box, or in the instructions.
    However, if the manual doesn't mention the iPod touch, that suggests its only compatible with the iPods they have listed.
    If it is this product that you have bought:
    http://catalog.belkin.com/IWCatProductPage.process?Product_Id=277661
    then as it says on the web-site, it is only for iPod nano 2nd generation & iPod 5th generation (video). Belkin don't make a microphone compatible with iPod touch according to their website.
