[@makkrohero59]

I’ve had like 6 of these now. They always end up skipping songs, pausing songs and then eventually only plays sound in one ear. I’ll try this, but I doubt it will work in my case. I hate those things

[@kitty-dx6iy]

Your phone/the adapter is probably getting dirty or you’re being too rough with it. Try being gentler and cleaning the adapter and charging port and headphones in general often.

[@kullenberg]

@@kitty-dx6iy "too rough with it" is complete bullshit. These things wear out by just fucking walking with your iPhone in your pocket with headphones plugged in.

[@belladoobee]

literally

[@kitty-dx6iy]

Edit these things are so fragile I just bought one with the thingy already attached.

[@kullenberg]

@@kitty-dx6iy sorry I didn't mean to curse at you, just frustrated with the longevity (or lack there of) of the product!

[@joelobuchowski4571]

Thanks. Helpful steps, including disabling Bluetooth to avoid conflicting connections and port clean-out with toothpick.

[@anantsingh1212]

This was amazing. My headphone was not working and I was worried about heading to an iphone store and spending money to get it fixed. But your last ultimate step helped and my headphones have started working again. Thanks :)

[@Sabethyelle]

Hi Chaq, my jack adaptor is working but only one earphone has sound. I have tried different earphones, so the issue for this might be the adaptor itself, as it's always the same: only 1 side works. Do you have any tips for this case? Thanks!

[@thoneyomoboye350]

I was about to return my device when I stumbled on this video and it works perfectly after following the instruction

[@rjkilla84]

i have an off brand braided adapter because i was tired of replacing them. sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn't. there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason why. i have to stand on one leg jump up and down sacrifice a chicken while repeatedly plugging and unplugging the adapter into the phone until some combination of voodoo works. so frustrating

[@jvnk_4270]

I think we have the same kind of adapter xD

[@TT33533]

im having the same issue no matter what i do nothing seems to work.. not even these steps

[@rakshitri]

Thank you the step of forget lighting connector/adapter helped me

[@blackoutlol2857]

Thanks so much I tried restarting and sure enough it solved my problem:)

[@oliven340]

Wow thanks. I just realised my Bluetooth is off. Switched it on and now working.

[@OGMAAL]

That final step was what worked. Thank you. I had so much lint from my jeans in there. 😅

[@svfca777]

Thank you! Your video fixed my iPhone max pro 13 headphone issue! You made my night!!!!

[@chriswhitlow1643]

Very informative. Great job.

[@Nihalanilu]

Bro where is the adapter adjustment setting in iphone SE ? The jack is connected to the mic but not able to recording, only listening to music is available

[@lucquant8798]

Whether or not I have the lighting adapter plugged in, there is no lightning adapter setting in headphone safety.

[@mikemillan5757]

Please update to latest iOS do this first. Then connect lightning adapter with headphones. On Home Screen you may see a headphone picture asking to connect. For some reason keep your Bluetooth on and check your list of devices

[@DarenHowarth]

Really excellent help - very clear and concise thank you

[@K-SmokeRick]

I don’t see that on my iPhone X but every time I turn off my phone wait for like 5 seconds plug those headphones in you got and it works but when I take it out I got to power my phone again and turn it back it for it to work but I don’t see that settings ❤

[@marufhossain2603]

You saved my life😭…i was about to by a new one😅

[@OlatundeO1]

Thanks, switching my iphone off and then on solved the issue.

[@negativezer0741]

I bought a two pack. One broke the first day I used them, and the other one broke a few days later after it’s first use. I’m just gonna get Bluetooth headphones, but thank you for the video

[@yhesers]

will this allow me to listen to calls and speak thru the mic jack?

[@briggitelondon]

Mine has very low sound dunno whats wrong changed volume setting already and its still the same

[@pietromussa6980]

Do u know why an apple adapter usb c lighting isn t working on a Xiaomi 9? The audio is really really low. Thank u for helping!

[@arinugroho3458]

working again after hard restart. Thank You

[@ishitanaha9732]

For my iphone 12 it is not showing lightning adapter and i am only able to hear sound in my right earbud and the sound on my left earbud is very low as compared to the right one. And it is only working when my bluetooth in on

[@lukajovanovic4258]

Thank you God bless you 🙏🙏🙏thank you very much you helped me a lot in my Situation with my ugly thoughts thank you i am so grateful and thankful 🙏🙏🙏

[@SuperSj10]

Very helpful; mine’s working again. My adapter worked properly -recording from interface- at first then suddenly stopped. I wasted day trying to figure out if phone or cords were broken. Not sure why it stopped working…did I overload the sound levels of the phone and trigger an automatic override? That might be a useful feature if it prevented damage to audio of the phone, but I’m not sure how Apple engineers would expect laypeople to figure out these steps out on their own, and I’m guessing what made it stop in the first place. Any ideas?

[@DiegoLopez-hl5ru]

Same here hahah a

[@DiegoLopez-hl5ru]

I can’t get wifi here so I need these pain in the ass adapters and they suck apple making us pay more for cheap stuff making us loose money

[@Humza1804]

I just went to headphone notifications and turned them on, plugged it back in and it worked

[@andreigjj0989p8]

I have a ipohne xr, when I connect the adapter to the phone, the phone charges but there is a buzzing sound in the headphones and the headphones do not connect to the phone, so what is the problem?

[@hib5446]

Thanks buddy the last method really helped me❤

[@flqmx7007]

my earpods work perfectly with and without the adapter on my ipad but when i plug it into my iphone x it just doesn’t seem to work. my charger also works normally on my iphone. i’ve tried on my sisters phone and on my mothers phone and it works completely fine. i’ve already done everything shown in the video and also cleaned my charging port

[@kyssmyass]

Same issue on xs max. Tired of these dongles

[@flqmx7007]

@@kyssmyass Turns out my charging port in my iPhone had one broken pin but for some reason it was still able to be charged. i ended up replacing the charging port and everything was fixed

[@Red-Feather]

It worked. Thanks. 👍.

[@jessicacollins8049]

Thanks. This helped. I had to turn off the blue tooth.

[@unleashed2724]

It just randomly stops working for me. Like it was working fine yesterday. But today it’s not working at all. It’s not being recognized, as the sound still comes from my iPhone rather than the headphones.

We shouldn't have to. Greedy Apple assholes.

💀

[@leejamiemellor]

Knowledge? Hes talking utter shit, you just switch on bluetooth cos thats what these adapters are and it connects all by itself without doing any of the nonsense this whopper is on about

Thank you. Turning my Bluetooth off worked a treat

Mines Idk whats happening. It’s making a crackling noise like something cracking. I just got fed up and uses my speaker for audio

@@Abhishekverma-le4ib yeah I bought a new one. I realize some moisture of water went into the cable and I didn't know. It was rusted

[@Abhishekverma-le4ib]

@@BigsteppapoloThanks bro but for me i changed the adaptor but still the issue is there talk with apple support no solution i think problem is in the charging port

[@Bigsteppapolo]

@@Abhishekverma-le4ib the charging port ? Yeah will have go get a new port also. Apple have warranty to a certain time. Like 1-2 years. They will help you with feedback but you can't get a part from them

[@ankita9664]

I cannot see ‘lightning adaptor’ option & my adaptor is connecting as bluetooth earphones. How to resolve that

[@kamalgt8969]

Thnks bro

[@martinkk2943]

In my case, the solution is different! OS16.5.1. When I plug the headphone with the adaptor in, a voice in the headphone says 'Power on' - but no music is playing; still sound off the phone, not in the headphone. Then I must turn Bluetooth ON and select 'lighting' as device -- then a voice says connected in the headphone. And then it works. BUT only for a minute or so as the volume reduces itself down to zero. How to fix that??? Also, is Apple software trying us to be Bluetooth radiated? We do not need Bluetooth with a cable headphone!!!

[@lostu9257]

Whenever I try to play music with my iPhone 11 on my lighting adapter connected to an aux it plays out of my phones speakers, not the audio device the adapter/aux is connected to. Frustrating. Restarted 10+ doesn’t work. A box came on my screen that said “is your lightening adapter___something “ but disappeared before I could read it w/out me touching it.

I still can’t play anything through earphones and it plays out on speaker like nothings plugged in😭 It was raining when it happened so I wonder if it’s water related now.
