4.2.1 killed the Keyboard Clicks on my iPad
Keyboard Clicks worked right up to the point that I installed 4.2.1. Now they don't work at all. Or almost at all. They will work on the initial password screen. They also work on the Settings->General->Sounds page. But no where else.
I've turned all of the sounds (including Keyboard Clicks) off and on again several times. I've cranked the volume up all the way. I've also played with the new Mute switch just in case that was giving me the problems. Nothing seems to work.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?
Just a thought- have you got the new Airplay feature turned on in iTunes or the video app?
Now this is an interesting question. However I checked it out and I don't think so. First because I don't own an Apple TV or compatible speakers. Indeed I've never even used Airplay and had to consult the web to find out how it works.
So I checked. I brought up a video and then a song, and did not see the Airplay up arrow icon on the control window as shown in the Apple demo videos. So I'm pretty sure it is not currently enabled on my iPad. I also went into iTunes, and the only reference I could see to Airplay was under iTunes->Preferences->Devices. There were options to look for remote speakers and for remote devices. Those options were selected so I turned them off. I didn't see any other Airplay features in iTunes, that I could find. So I'm guessing this isn't the problem for me.
I did find one other place where Keyboard Clicks works. In addition to the initial screen-lock password page, and also the Settings->General->Sounds page, I also discovered that Clicks works on the search page that you get when you swipe to the right on the home page. But, other than those three pages, Clicks doesn't work anywhere else.
I'm still thinking that it is a 4.2.1 bug, since it appeared exactly when I did the upgrade, but it is odd that no one else has (yet) reported this same problem. It's still possible that there is a weird configuration issue (like Airplay - thanks for the suggestion) but if so I haven't found it yet.

Why do I have to uncheck the mute checkmark to get keyboard clicks and then the rotation locks. Can't I have both. Sorry, I am probably not explaining myself very well. I want the keyboard clicks is what I am trying to say and I want to be able to rotate the screen. This only happened yesterday. Thank you.
Edit : your reply on your other thread appeared after I started typing this.
Your original thread : keyboard clicks not working
You can have both.
The Settings > General > Use Side Switch To is only saying what the switch on the side of your iPad, above the volume control, is controlling - what that switch isn't controlling is instead turned on/off via Control Centre (swipe up from the bottom edge of your iPad's screen).
So if you have the side switch is controlling rotation lock then swipe up from the bottom edge of your iPad to open control centre and there should be an icon for muting/unmuting notification sounds - if the icon is white then mute is 'on', if it's grey then it's unmated (tap the icon to turn it on/off).
And similarly if you have the switch controlling notification mute then the icon in control centre will be for turning rotation lock on/off. -

My iphone5s won't let me hear any music only with headphones , I can't even hear the keyboard clicks .
Hello reyna171,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To troubleshoot your iPhone's speakers please go through the following steps:
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.

Where is the keyboard click sound located?
Hi,
I would like to change the sound the Mac plays when using keyboard click sounds. Any idea where the sound file is located? I figure I can just swap in a new one.
Thanks,
AllanChoose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu and enter /System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/ScreenReader.framework /Versions/A/Resources/Sounds/ as the folder's path after removing all spaces. Once this folder has appeared, play the different sounds and see if any of them is the one you want. If none of them are, repeat the above process with /System/Library/Frameworks/Carbon.framework/Versions/ A/Frameworks/SpeechRecognition.framework/Versions/ A/Resources/SpeechFeedbackWindow.app/Contents/ Resources/ as the path, again removing all spaces.

How to fix the Superdrive from killing the keyboard usb port?
IF the Superdrive is plugged into the iMac USB port, the keyboard USB port indicates that there is not enough power for the thumb drive or other device. If the Superdrive is unplugged, all is well on the keyboard USB port.
Any fixes for this?Hi there, I have the same problem on a 27" iMac: when the superdrive is connected to a USB port on the Mac, the USB ports on the keyboard seem to lose all power, even for a USB key.
I called Apple and they told me to reset SMC, PRAM and VRAM but to no avail.
I will try with another keyboard as they seem to say it could be a keyboard problem (which a very much doubt...) -
How to get the keyboard sounds on my ipad
For some reason the click sounds on the keyboard arent working and the other sounds such as receiving emails etc.....
I have recently reset my ipad and hasnt worked since
Any help would be appreciated.Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad above the volume switch, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085 -

Kill the MouseEven.CLICK event when mouse is held down?
I have been studying games on Facebook and am trying to emulate mouse event handling. For example in ChefVille you can click on objects and drag them around. But if you hold the mouse down you pan the entire game environment and when you release the mouse button a click is NOT registered on the object below the mouse. In my tinkering the CLICK event is triggered on the release of the mouse button no matter how long I keep the button depressed. How do I keep the CLICK event from firing if the mouse is held down for some period of time?
I don't know that you can cancel a CLICK event in the middle of it happening (CLICK = MOUSE_DOWN followed by MOUSE_UP), but you can trigger a Timer on the MOUSE_DOWN event and use its event handler to set a boolean variable that your CLICK event handler function can make use of to decide whether or not to process a CLICK event.
