I have an iPod Touch 5 model MD750LL/A running 7.0.3 11B511
It still thinks it has headphones plugged in when it doesn't. I don't see anything stuck in the port. Phones work if I plug them in, but the speaker doesn't come on when no phones are plugged in then if I press the volume buttons the onscreen says headphones on the volume indicator popup.
iPod touch, iOS 7.0.3
I would restart the device by turning it off then turning it back on. This should fix it. Hope this helps!
- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPod touch: 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
- Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.
A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.
iPhone Repair, Service & Parts: iPod Touch, iPad, MacBook Pro Screens
Replace the jack yourself
I actually did a bunch of this stuff (short of replacing the jack or resetting the device) before I posted. What did the job was getting to the office today a shoving the tip of an air duster all the way in the port and shooting one little tap in there did the job. Blowing into the port was the solution just needed more power.
Thx all
Some people have said use compressed air and that works but if you don't have that a ball pump works just as well
