    Headphones not Recognized

    Not sure if this is M1 specific or an OS-wide thing. But I've noticed on my 14" M1 Pro MacBookPro that it has an annoying inconsistency with audio. I can have my headphones plugged in and audio will still come blasting out of the speakers. This seems to happen quite a lot after a reboot. As...

    Other iPhone 14 with 3.5 mm headphone jack and advanced support for high-impedance headphones

    It would be a good business decision for Apple to add a 3.5 mm headphone jack with advanced support for high-impedance headphones (like on new MacBooks) to the new iPhone. 1) Apple would make their product line cleaner by allowing to use the same set of headphones with MacBooks and iPhones...

    I have a MacBook Air M1 running macOS Monterey 12.1 bought in May 2021. After the last update when I turn off my computer with wired headphones plugged in and then turn the computer back on again, it won't recognize the wired headphones.

    The new MBP‘s single biggest flaw is the Headphone Jack location

    This bothers me a lot while not even being affected by it (yet). Adapter users will now have to choose to either use their left-side USB C adapter, or the headphone jack, as the adapter will cover the all-new and bestest-yet jack. I‘m talking about the adapter „bars“ you basically attach to both...

    Hi there, I seem to have damaged the headphone jack on my Early 2015 Macbook Pro. The right side works fine, but the left side only outputs white noise and none of the actual signal at all. I've tried multiple cables and different sources (spotify, youtube etc). It's definitely an issue with...

    iPhone 6(S)/Plus Sound stuck in headphone mode?

    So today, me being me, I dropped my phone in a fairly large puddle today. And again, me being me, I thought nothing of it. So when I went to play music through my phone (without the headphones) it says that it is still stuck in headphone mode? Once I actually put the headphones in, the music...

    iPhone XS Resurrecting the headphone jack; it won’t happen again because of thei design choice? ....

    is it possible? I’m thinking no. Like many of you who were mad when Apple removed the jack (I know I was one) for reasons cited as “courage”, a yr later after iPhone 7, they came out with the X that was thin with edge or edge screen made possible by folding the screen on the bottom to allow...

    Other Advise regarding post iPhone release date.

    When a new generation of iPhone's are released, how long do we typically have left to purchase the previous generation's models before they are taken off the shelves? Is there typically a time window? I assume the next generation may deprecate the oldest models, which are the only models to...

    iPod touch Ipod display problems after replacement
