Volume maxed out but still not loud

my shuffle (current gen) has worked fine for about 6 months now but recently the volume has lowered...its really weird. i tried changing the setting in the settings tab on my comp to the max and its still not as loud as it was before. any advice would be nice.

You might note that checking the box to set a volume limit actually DOES limit the volume even when set to maximum...
Try your earphones on some other device audio out to see whether your earphones are the problem. About a month ago, I began having trouble with volume in higher than normal ambient noise situations... turned out my Apple earphones somehow had become less sensetive to the shuffle's output level. I went back to a previous set of earphones and was back at the normal volume range.

  • Since installing yosemite my computer/screen blacks out, but still running

    Since installing yosemite last week, my computer/screen blacks out, but still running. I have since rebooted everything, started from scratch and utilizing my external drive transferred all files/apps back. Did not help, in fact it is getting worse. Computer screen blacks out every 5 min or so and have to power up again. Also, continue to get Java message updates even after all have been updated over and over again. Any suggestions? Thanks!

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled in OS X 10.9 or earlier, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • I plug in my iPhone and this message showed. "This iPhone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes." I did this but still not working. Please advise

    I have a problem with connecting my iPhone to iTunes. I uninstalled one of the computer program and restart my laptop. After restart my laptop and a message said that iTunes might not working because one of the component is missing and request to reinstall the iTunes. Hence I remove iTunes from my laptop and I reinstall iTunes to my laptop but still not working.
    Before this the iTunes will automatically launch when I plug in my iPhone. But after I reinstall iTunes, it's not working. When I try to plug in my iPhone after iTunes launched and message "This iPhone cannot be used because the required software is not installed. Run the iTunes installer to remove iTunes, then install the 64-bit version of iTunes." popped out. I did this twice but it's not working as well.
    Please advise what should I do to fix this.

    First make sue you are installing the 64 bit version of iTunes.
    Second make sure it is iTunes 10.7 or later.
    I would download a fresh copy of the 64 bit version of iTunes 11. After installation reboot your computer.
    Before connecting your phone reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

    Thanks so much but none of that helped.  It was driving me crazy because it would back up another external drive.  I just changed the name of the drive from iPhoto/iTunes Library to Media Libraries and IT WORKED!! I guess for some reason it didn't like the drive being called iPhoto or iTunes ???? I don't understand but I have tried so many solutions and exchanging things out but the name change did it????!!!
    Thank you for your help and replying to this.  Guess I made my own issue!

  • Spontaneous volume max out

    Hi
    recently, while recording with garageband 4.1.2, the volume will spontaneously max out, causing pure static for about 5 minutes, but then go back to normal. if the recording is left running, the static will come back again and the same process will repeat. if I stop the recording tho, sometimes the volume max out will disappear and the recording will be fine (as if the max out never occurred), but other times the max out will remain.
    any thoughts? I use a shure sm57 mic into a Edirol FA-66 firewire recording box. It's worked fine for the past 4 months, just in the last week has it started acting up.
    any help would be greatly appreciated, cheers!

    You could try reloading the firmware but it might be a hardware problem - button stuck down, maybe? If so, try exercising it. PB

  • TS1559 since i installed ios8 my ipod5 is not connecting to the internet i tried doing evrething but still not connecting

    since my ipod updaded to ios8 its not connecting to the internet i've tried evrting but still not working plzz help

    Does the iOS device connect to other networks? If yes that tend to indicate a problem with your network.
    Does the iOS device see the network?
    Any error messages?
    Do other devices now connect?
    Did the iOS device connect before?
    Try the following to rule out a software problem:                
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Power off and then back on your router
    .- Reset network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings
    - iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections
    - Wi-Fi: Unable to connect to an 802.11n Wi-Fi network      
    - iOS: Recommended settings for Wi-Fi routers and access points
    - Restore from backup. See:
    iOS: How to back up
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem and it does not connect to any networks make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
    First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
    http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
    If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
    As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

    Can any one please tell me how to view .shtml files in Firefox?

    SHTML files are regular HTML files that make use of Server-Side Includes. In some server configurations, the special file extension is required to instruct the server to parse the file for SSI code.
    If Firefox doesn't recognize the file type, it is likely the MIME type is incorrect.

  • No Crop tool in Adobe Camera Raw, have updated to 8.7 but still not there, how do I get full tool panel please?

    Hi, I have the $9.99 Adobe CC package but in Camera Raw I do not have the full tool bar, went to Adobe site and downloaded Camera Raw 8.7 but still not there, I have Windows 7 on PC. Please can anyone help. Thanks.

    Yes, in the camera-raw preferences you can set ACR to open as a plug-in when editing TIFs or JPGs.  There are three settings -- paraphrasing:  Don’t, Open all, and Open those with settings.  You would want to set JPG’s setting to Open All at least temporarily. 
    Of course you can also use PS to crop, right?
