RE: Phone Randomly Playing Music

2015-01-31 Thread Sieghard Weitzel
Hi Brandon,

 

I had this issue once and it started on a long flight back from Hong Kong to 
Vancouver. Many times when I stopped my Audible book with the headset remote, 
it would suddenly start playing again or vice versa. I finally realized that 
the headset was at fault. It was a rather old set of Apple Earpods and the 
wires must have come into contact at times creating the signal to start 
playing. When I arrived in Vancouver I stopped by an Apple Store and got a 
replacement headset which you can get for free if you have Apple Care. After 
that my problem was fixed.

 

The only other scenario I can think of would be if you have a bluetooth 
keyboard which is turned on in your backpack and maybe keys are getting pressed 
by accident. The Apple Wireless keyboard is sort of notorious for that since it 
doesn’t have a mechanical on/off switch, just a button which gets easily 
pushed. It is the main reason why I got rid of it in favour of a Logitech K811.

 

Regards,

Sieghard

Hello,

 

I’m having an odd problem on my iPhone 6. I have a set of earphones with a 
built-in microphone and which has the iTunes controls, where if you squeeze the 
mic part of the earphone cord it plays or pauses music. Anyway when I have the 
earphones plugged in, the phone will randomly play music without me touching 
anything. Also sometimes siri will get enabled and I’ll hear the double beep 
that indicates it is listening. Again this is all without me touching anything.

 

Why could this be happening? It is incredibly inconvenient. I like using 
earphones a lot so no one else hears what I am doing and I can have privacy.

This happens to me too - even without earphones plugged in, and sometimes even 
when the phone is turned off with respect to Siri listening. And sometimes 
Tune-In Radio comes on unbidden, as well. And yes, this is very annoying. Are 
there any fixes? Thanks. Penny
