My Ipod Has The White Screen Of Death And Is Bluetooth Connected With My Speaker. Help

How do you pair wireless bluetooth headphones with your TV?

YES, any pair of bluetooth headphones will work with your TV and for that to happen, we first need to identify the ports available at the back of your TV.Identifying PORTS at the back of the TV :If you have a media center where all your audio sources feed into a receiver (e.g. the audio from your cable box, your Bluray player, your HDTV, etc. all gets piped into a receiver that controls all the audio and then pumps it out to your surround system) you’ll want to check the ports on the receiver instead of the TV. This way your new wireless headphone setup will work for not just watching TV but for listening to music and whatever other audio you pipe through your home media center.The vast majority of television sets have at least a TOSLINK optical port and, in addition, either a headphone jack or the L/R composite audio jacks.Buying a bluetooth transmitter :The biggest decision you need to make regarding which Bluetooth transmitter you’ll purchase hinges on how many headphones you want to pair with the transmitter. Every Bluetooth transmitter on the market will pair with a single pair of headphones but very few of them will pair with two pairs of headphones and if you want more than two pairs of headphones you’re out of luck.The market for Bluetooth headphones is enormous and just like the regular headphones market there are budget headphones you can pick up for twenty bucks and there are premium headphones that cost as much as a modest car payment.You’ll most certainly spend more time reading over the feature lists of the Bluetooth adapters you’re interested in and shopping for headphones than you will actually setting the system up. Setting up a Bluetooth audio receiver is a straightforward affair.Setting things up :If you have a dedicated headphone jack or a L/R composite audio output, you can plug the Bluetooth receiver directly into the ports (using the supplied headphone-to-composite adapter if necessary).If you are using the optical audio port then you simply add in the aforementioned TOSLINK converter in the sequence, linking the TOSLINK port to the converter and then plugging your Bluetooth adapter into the converter.For most of the transmitters, you simply press and hold the main button on the unit and wait for the light to blink. Once the light on the base unit is blinking, hold the pairing button on your headphones. A few blinking lights later and you have a link between the two. Pop the headphones on, turn the TV on, and test the audio.

How do I fix speakers that make a static sound only when there is no audio output?

From your description, it seems that the circuitry which detects whether or not there is audio signal coming in is faulty. Many active speaker manufacturers feel the need to implement an auto on/off feature, that you can't even bypass! I'd rather have a simple ON (I want to listen to music, even with 2 minutes of silence in between songs if I so wish) and OFF (I don't want to listen to music). Simples.Sorry, but I don't think there's anything I could recommend to fix this, apart from the usual suspects: electrolytic capacitors gone dry. If you know a bit about soldering and electronics, open up the speaker - POWER CORD DISCONNECTED - and use your nose first. Does anything smell like it's burnt? Do any components, or parts of the circuit board tracks, look charred?Then use you eyes: do any of the electrolytic capacitors (cylindrical-shaped thingies) look bloated, either at the top - it should be flat - or on the sides?If so, then jot down the values written on the side (capacity and voltage rating) and go buy some new ones.You wouldn't believe the high percentage of electronics that fail because of cheap capacitors mounted too close to heat sinks - making them go dry prematurely. Poor design.Hope this helps!

iPhone 5 receives call, but cannot hear the caller. What are some suggestions to fix it? Is this phone completely broken?

Try those reseting/ restoring options first,if it doesn't help, then there are still few things to try, apart from above suggestions, to determine the actual problem. 1. Press volume up/down button a few times on the home screen, see whats written on the volume bar screen, is it showing "headphones" or "ringer", if it shows "headphones" with no headphone plugged in, then most likely the headphone jack circuit is shortened.2. if above showed "ringer", most likely the hearing speaker on the top of the phone is busted, or the circuit connection from the hearing speaker is cut off.3. if the replacing the hearing speaker doesnt help and the circuits are not cut off, then most likely u21 IC is busted.

I no longer receive notifications for text messages on my iPhone 4. How can I best troubleshoot this?

Thanks for the A2A.If you haven’t done so already, try restarting your iPhone.Also, tap Settings, then tap Notifications and scroll down until you find Messages. Tap it and check your notification settings. Also check to make sure Do Not Disturb is not turned on. (It is really easy to accidentally turn it on in Control Center). You can tell if Do Not Disturb is on if there is a moon at the top of the iPhone screen next to the location, bluetooth, and battery indicators.If none of that works, you could try doing a Factory Restore.That’s about all you can do short of taking it to an Apple Store or buying a new phone. (Hey, it’s an iPhone 4 — maybe its time.)
