Hello Hartnett01,
Thank you for the details you provided regarding your audio issue you are experiencing on your iPad. I found a couple of resources that I think might help.
First, I recommend following steps in the following tutorial to address an issue like this (you can skip step 2 "Recharge iPad" because it's not related to this issue):
Frozen or unresponsive iPad

If the issue persists, I recommend reviewing this article next (the title of the article refers to an iPhone, but the steps still apply to an iPad):

Ipad volume button only says sound effects

Not sure what happened but my volume button does not operate now on my ipad 2. When I unlock it and try it, it says sound effect. I have tried all the common remedies posted to no help. Only sound I can get is from the headphones. Please help me.

Nevermind about the help. I spoke to a friend and he suggested taking Q-Tip, removing part of the cotton, put a little rubbing alcohol on it, then insert it into the headphone jack. Clean it several times. Then also do the same to the charging port. Not sure which fixed it but it works properly now.

Static when turning up or down volume on Klipsch 2.1

just hooked up my "Klipsch 2.1" speakers on my iMac (late '13). I used these on my mid '11 mac mini with no problem. but so far I've tried listening to K-Love radio and I'm getting static when I turn the volume up or down. I've tried turning down the volume down in sound preferences to compensate. Is there anything else I can do to eliminate this? I didn't have the problem using "Bose companion 2" speakers prior to hooking up the Klipsch 2.1. Is there an app that might help with this? Some kind of equalizer or something? Or any other equalizer within Yosemite?

My sound for music and apps is not working. when i try to turn the volume up it says "Sound Effects" ...Anyway to fix?

I need to kno how to fix this problem

Try the standard fixes:
- Reset. Nothing is 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.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory defaults/new iPod

My 5 yr. old turned off the volume on my ipad. when I hit the volume buttons it just says "sound effects" and does not go up or down

I had the same problem- go to Utilities, General, Use Side Switch To, and change it from Mute to Lock Rotation- this solved the problem for me.
Good luck!

How do you make it not so sensitivity. when turned off set down it comes back on or when working out shirt brushes ipod and it changes music

You didn't say which model of iPod Nano that you have, but generally there should be a lock setting, that can be turned on or off, to prevent accidental changes in settings. And, there is also a setting to turn on or off a feature called, "Shake to Shuffle." It allows you to change songs by just shaking the iPod.

When using bootcamp computer shuts down when turning the screen down.

Im using the latest version mac os x macbook retina 15display. When im running Windows 8 through bootcamp I'm having problems when turning down the display the computer always have to reboot again. I have to start it and choose to boot from Windows 8. But when entering Windows8 again it will remeber its state from when turning the screen down. This also causes a problem that I can not use only a single external display because I always have to have my screen up because when turning down it will shut down and my usb devices as mouse or keyboard will no be able to detect the computer. This is not a problem on my Mac Os X partition.

the behaviour of various things like closing the lid is something one controls in the control panel in windows under powersettings same as with all windows laptops

When using side buttons, volumes says sound effects

Not sure what happened here. Is it a mistake by a 3 year old or a bug issue. Started about a month ago that when i open apps that have sound the volume goes mute, meaning sound and keyboard and lock too. Even when i close the app down and open say a video type app, there will be no sound. I will push the side buttons and the gray box that should say volume says sound effect. I have already done the reset with holding home and lock buttons, can't remeber how many times. I have also reset the iPad, i have synced it too. Please help

Try this - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
1. Go to Settings
2. Tap on General
3. Tap on Reset
4. Tap on Reset All Settings
What this effectively does is to reset some of your Settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It doesn’t affect your data. All of your email accounts will remain intact, as well as any SMS text or iMessages.

Hi MrJavonte15,
If you are having issues installing iTunes on your Windows machine, you may want to take a look at the following article:

HT4623 when turn imessage on there is a message saying waiting for activation but it doesnt change anybody knows why?

when turn imessage on there is a message saying waiting for activation but it doesnt change anybody knows why?

Hi guys,
I keep getting "waiting for activation" on my iMessage. I can only send/receive iMessage from my email address, NOT my phone number.
I have done all kind of fixing suggestions that I can find online, but nothing works so far.
- Date & time set as automatic (I don't know why this matter, but mine was already set as automatic from the begining)
- Reset network setting
- Changing the DNS to 8.8.8.8.
- Restore to factory setting (from back up & as new iPhone)
- Turning on/off iMessage & facetime
- Sign out/in of apple ID
- Change location from apple ID
- Hard reset/reboot
And many others.
...me too. I'm in Portugal having the same issue!! Hopefuly Apple will give us a solution, shortly...

IPad 3 Volume Control says Sound Effects and won't adjust

Regardless of the mute button/orientation lock whenever I push up or down on the volume control buttons on the side of the iPad, the Volume indicator that lights up in the center of the screen says "Sound Effects" and there are no bars below it to indicate the actual volume, and it will not change. If I double press the home button, and swipe right to the dimmer/volume/play controls, the volume bar doesn't even show up in its location there. I'm thinking that the kids changed something in one of their games. And turning it off, or even doing the hard reset of pushing the home and off button simultaneously doesn't clear the problem out.

Greetings!
I just now followed the advice above, and solved my problem by using a different charging cable.
Must be lucky that the old charging cable is "dorked", and not the internals of the iPad!
The indication of a bad cable, I guess, is that the sound controls fade out after a few seconds with it connected, but they do not do so with a good cable.
Thank you for the shortcut to happiness, easytiger!
BTW, some folks also say that the problem may be related to using a non-Apple charger or cable; my "bad" cable is non-Apple; the good one is the original (albeit too short) cable that arrived with the iPad.

Volume button says sound effects, no sound.

I Can not get the sound to come through on my ipad. It works with head phones. It was working a few days ago. My volume buttons say sound effects. It used to say volume?

Hello Skeetercove,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Please follow the steps below to troubleshoot the issue of having no audio output from your iPad's speakers. Please note that even though the steps state it's for iPhone, the same applies to your iPad.
Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
Try turning off Bluetooth.
If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
Restart the iPhone.
If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
If the issue is not resolved, please contact Apple Support.

I lost my iphone so I purchased one from Craiglist, it isold. It is a 4.2.1 (8C148) and when I want to down load apps, it says I need iOS4.3 Can my old phone even be upgraded?

I don't even know if this can be upgraded to higher level software. When I try to download an app, it
states that I need iOS 4.3 but when I plug it into to my itunes it says that it is the right update. So do you
think that I have such an old phone it can't be upgraded to handle the newer apps like Shazam

Iphone 3g can only go to 4.2.1

Why is my iPad 2 volume going in and out? Sometimes it says sound effects and the squares on the volume aren't coming up. I've tried everything.

Why isn't my IPad 2 volume going In and out? Sometimes the volume squares won't come up and when I have headphones in it doesn't work the volume will work for 1 second amd then boom it's gone again! I've tried updating, restarting, and the mute bottom isn't on I've tried everything, but nothing is working. Can someone please help thank you.

I have the same issue that the international keyboard (globe icon) is not accessible once I updated to ios 7. I am attempting the restore from iTunes, but receive:
"Find My iPhone must be turned off before “xxxxx iPhone 4S” can be restored."
Of course, I am unable to access this setting on the iPhone. From my Mac I entered iCloud and tried changing setttings and erasing the phone from the Find My iPhone there, but it did not turn the feature off on the phone.
Any suggestions?

When turning up or down volume it's says sound effect
