I have changed the side switch option to fix muting and orientation lock, but if I fix muting I have orientation lock and if I fix orientation lock I have the muting problem. How do I fix both?

What should I do, Ive tried the tap home button twice side switch trick, but i can only solve one problem then the other one pops up how can I solve both problems permanently?

Push the switch to the up position.

  • HT5622 iPad 3 and my sound has stopped from speakers, but can get from headphones.  It's not the side switch and the volume is max in all areas.  Anyone got any ideas, what problem is and how to fix it thanks

    Hi,
    My iPad has just stopped working with sound from the speakers, it works fine with the headphones in.  The soft mute button is not made and the volume is at max.
    Any ideas what problem is and how to sort.  Thanks

    System sounds can be muted from the software switch in the task bar as well as from the side switch depending on how you have it set up. This my boilerplate resonse for sound issues.
    1. If you have no sound at all, even in the Music App, try rebooting the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    2. If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
    This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

    3. If you still have no sound at all - except when using headphones ....try cleaning the dock connector opening of the iPad with a soft brush and just a little bit of rubbing alcohol.

  • HT4085 Why isn't "hold" an option for the side switch on the iPad?

    Why isn't "hold" an option for the side switch on the iPad?
    I'd like to be able to let my 3 year old watch videos on the iPad, but young kids want to touch the screen.  I need a method to disable the touch screen.  Seems simple, why isn't this an option?
    Is there a way to write an app that allows the side switch to act as a "hold" switch?

    The obvious solution is to put the iPad screen out of his reach.  Now that's innovative! 

  • I went in you tube and watched videos on how to fix my headphone jack and its not the headphones cause when I look inside I see this little white costing in there I think that's the problem how can I fix it

    I went in you tube and watched videos on how to fix my headphone jack and its not the headphones cause when I look inside I see this little white costing in there I think that's the problem how can I fix it

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Make sure that y do not leave any foreign material or leave anything in the jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    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.
    Apple - iPod Repair price                  
    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • How Do I Find the Side Switch Controls in Settings?

    Hi;
    I recently installed the latest iOS on my iPhone 3GS. I just read that one of the new features is increased control using the Side Switch settings. For some reason I cannot access this in Settings.
    Any suggestions?
    Thanks.

    Hi, Paul:
    You're right. I just realized that and was about to remove this question.
    Thanks for your speedy reply.

  • Choose what the side switch does

    I have ipad air and i can choose between making the side switch Mute the device or lock the rotation. I also have an iphone 4 and i would like to be able to do the same. can i do that? the software is the same or ios 7.1
    My actual problem is that on my iphone both the home button and the power button are broken and i figgure out that on the ipad i can turn the screen on by using the side swich because it's on lock rotation. If I can change what the side switch dose on the iphone it would save my phone! haha!
    So please anyone if you know anything, any suggestions are appreciateted

    There's no side switch on iPhone, except volume and mute and you can't reconfigure the mute or volume switches to do anything other than their intended purpose.  With one exception.  You can use the volume switch as a shutter release to take pictures.

  • Have downloaded both Adobe reader and PDF reader, but when I attempt to open a pdf from a site on safari, it starts to load, then disappears.  Any way to fix this?

    Have downloaded both Adobe reader and PDF reader, but when I attempt to open a pdf from a site on safari, it starts to load, then disappears.  Any way to fix this?

    Try quitting the PDF apps and Safari like I describe below. Then reset the iPad. After it starts try again.
    Double click the Home button to show the screen with running and recently used apps. Each app icon will have a sample page above it. Flick up on the page (not the app icon) and the page will fly away and the app icon will disappear. This quits that app. Then reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • HT4085 Side Switch Options

    How can I use both rotate screen orientation and un-mute simultaneously?  Why do I have to choose one or the other???

    If you are asking if you have the screen rotation working and have system sounds at the same time, you can absolutely have both at the same time. It would not make sense if you couldn't up have both at the same time.
    The kb article that you must have been reading when you posted your question explains in great detail how you can have both at the same time, but I will try to explain it in a boilerplate that I have posted here many times in the past.
    System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
    Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
    If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
    If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center if you are running iOS 8. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
    If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.

  • I just updated my mac and when i went to open iphoto it says it "can not open because of a problem" how do i fix this?

    i just updated my mac and when i went to open iphoto it says it "can not open because of a problem" how do i fix this?

    To re-install iPhoto
    1. Put the iPhoto.app in the trash (Drag it from your Applications Folder to the trash)
    2a: On 10.5:  Go to HD/Library/Receipts and remove any pkg file there with iPhoto in the name.
    2b: On 10.6: Those receipts may be found as follows:  In the Finder use the Go menu and select Go To Folder. In the resulting window type
    /var/db/receipts/
    2c: on 10.7 they're at
    /private/var/db/receipts
    A Finder Window will open at that location and you can remove the iPhoto pkg files.
    3. Re-install.
    If you purchased an iLife Disk, then iPhoto is on it.
    If iPhoto was installed on your Mac when you go it then it’s on the System Restore disks that came with your Mac. Insert the first one and opt to ‘Install Bundled Applications Only.
    If you purchased it on the App Store you can find it in your Purchases List.

  • My iPad Prefs are set for the side switch to Mute; but the speaker does not mute when the switch is moved down.

    My iPad Prefs are set for the side switch to Mute; but the speaker does not mute when the switch is moved down.

    That setting only works for system sounds like push notifications (emails and the like), some game sounds, keyboard clicks and things like that. If you want to mute all sounds you still have to turn the volume all the way down with the volume switch.

  • HT4085 The side switch is locking the display.

    The side switch is not displaying the speaker icon and does not do volume up or down.  Holding it does do the power off.   Worked as expected lazy night.  I powered down.  This morning I powered up and was watching a video, when to adjust the volume and the screen locked.   Unlocked the screen with the pin and resumed whee I has in the video.  Tried to adjust the volume and same behavior, locked the screen.
    Other means of controlling the volume are working.

    My mistake....  All is working.  I was not hitting the volume switch, But the sleep/wake button !   I must have still been half asleep !!

  • Sound has stopped. Have checked speaker, side switch and volume controls.

    Sound has stopped.  Have checked speaker, side switch and volume control.  Anything else?

    Sounds for what? Music, apps, alerts? Or all?
    Make Sure iOS is updated to the latest version
    Reboot the device by pressing and holding down the home and sleep/wake buttons (power) at the same time until the apple logo appears on the screen, then let go.
    If that doesn't work then reset the device by going to settings/general/reset/reset all settings
