It's possible you have water damage in your headphone jack, which is why it's no longer working.

The other common problem with the iPhone 5 headphone jack is that lint collects in there, and eventually enough gets compacted down in there that a connection is no longer possible. I would suggest using a very small, fine-tipped screw driver and gently poking into the jack. If it feels like it's hitting the metal, then it's probably water, but if you swirl the screwdriver around a bit and it doesn't feel like it's scratching the bottom, then you probably just have lint.

If it's lint, you can gently pull it out. If you need a new headphone jack, find a local repair shop or replace it yourself. (See related link below for a guide.)

Music stops after unplugging earphones from laptop?

No. There are speakers in the laptop. But, if no sound is coming out of them, they are most likely muted. If they are not muted, and they are still not producing music, check the volume of the music you are playing. If this is not the case, your laptop speakers are most likely broken, and are in need of repair.

Portable Speakers?

Before you go shopping for portable speakers, it is important to think about when you will most frequently use them. Some portable speakers may sound good, but also can still be bulky to transport, and vice-versa. Be sure to pick out the speakers that meet both your sound quality specifications, as well as are easy to transport.

My speakers are not working the light is on but there is no sound and i cann't listen to music or anything what do i do?

Make sure that the speaker cable is connected to your computer, your volume on the speakers is turned up and the volume on your computer is turned up. Make sure that no mute options are enabled. If you still can't hear sound, try using another program that plays sound.


Speakers are playing unwanted sound. No windows or apps open but can still hear sound like a voice and sometimes a song playing and people talking coming from the speakers.?

It sounds, no pun intended, that the sounds are arriving at your speakers from somewhere. If you are connected to the Internet, then turn it off. If you have a wall that can you can move the computer to different to the wall or room you normally use, do that. There should be a reason why you are hearing sounds from the speakers. Good luck finding out what the reason is


1992 Chrysler Town and Country with the Inifinity Sound System The amplifier going to the rear speakers is bad Where is it located and can it be replaced?

AnswerThe amplifier on Infinity Speakers were integril to each speaker. Relpace the speaker with OEM (new or used) and enjoy the best factory sound around.There is the possibility that the sound processor is failing. It is located under the dash on the drivers side on my '93 T&C. May be different on a '92 but should be the same. I have the same problem with the front door speakers on mine. I have replaced both door speakers and still have the same problem. I can only believe it is the sound processor. Hope this helps.
