Hi and welcome to the Forum!

I'm a little confused when you say you cannot hear anything on the computer......did you mean on the iPad?

Before pulling headphones out of an iPad, turn off whatever it is your listening to first.

I hope that helps, if not and you mean something else, let us know.

I have now given your post it's own thread so as not to interrupt the other thread you had posted in. Please start a new thread for any issues you are having rather than hijack another's thread as it is against our Rules.

Hello - if the previous advice does not correct the situation; then make sure that your 'Side Switch' if selected to 'Mute Sound' has not been unintentionally put in the mute position - if not, then your might want to 'Reset' the iPad (directions below if not familiar w/ this maneuver) - just go the bottom of the quoted information - Dave

When an app (or several) are misbehaving, I usually go through the following steps:

1. Force Close - open the multi-tasking bar (double tap the 'home buttom' or use multi-gesturing and swipe up):
a. iOS 6.x - press & hold an app until all begin to 'jiggle'; find the offending app(s) and press the 'red circle w/ minus sign' - return to the home screen & try again.
b. iOS 7.x - find the offending app - then press and drag to the top of the screen - return to the home screen & try again.


2. Restart - press & hold the 'Sleep/Awake' (a.k.a. power) button until a red slider appears (may take a few seconds) - move the slider to turn off the iPad; then press & hold the same button until the Apple logo appears - wait for a restart.


3. Reset - press & hold the 'Power' and 'Home' buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears - this may take a longer time, so have patience; the iPad will 're-boot' - NOTE that none of these maneuvers will alter your apps, files, or settings.
