Alarm volume honks on the Z22! Help!

The alarm volume honks! It isn't even 1/2 as loud of my Palm V which recently died and the Z22 was the replacement.
I have seen the complaints, talked to Palm but no solutions yet. I tried installing Emerald Sounds but still no luck. I really need a solution. Does someone out there have one?

Yes i did. It is not a hardware problem on my handlheld but a systemic problem with the Z22 based on on all complaints in the forum. I have spent over an hour with tech support trying to explain but no one seems to understand.

Can I set the iOS6 clock alarm volume?

Dear Folks,
The (alarm) clock built into iOS6 seems very slick, but the volume is too low to wake me up. I can't seem to find a setting to change the alarm volume (nor does the physical volume switch alter it).
Is there a way to do this?
Thanks!

Dear Moireach,
Yeah, that works!
A minor correction -- The 'official' name for that volume control is "Ringer and Alerts," not "Sound Effects." It's the slider right at the top of the Sounds setting screen on the iPad.
Thanks for your help.

How do I set my iPod's alarm volume separate from that of the other sounds?

First of all, I tried to post this to the iOS Apps community, but there doesn't seem to be one for the Clock app.
I wake up by the alarm feature on my iPod Touch, but sometimes the volume is turned down super low because throughout the day I have the volume in Settings>Sounds>Ringer and Alerts turned down while I teach. I did have the "Change with Buttons" turned on, but that seems to set the music volume the same, which I don't want (hearing a loud mail bing while listening to Bon Iver just isn't the mood I'm going for).
I think the simplest solution, and probably most obvious since many of us use our Clock's Alarm feature, is to have it's own volume somewhere like Settings>Notifications>Clock. Something like that. But I can't find it. And if there were options to turn off the sounds in Settings>Notifications>Mail - or any of the preloaded iOS software - that would work, too. But there's not from what I can see.
Has anyone found a workaround for this? How can I keep my Alarm volume without disturbing class all day with Mail and other notifications' sounds? I'd hate to find out that the "Most advanced iOS" still relies on me turning down the volume after I wake up and trying to remember it when I go back to sleep - both times when I'm too sleepy to think.

This works on an iPod Touch, OS 6.1.6.
Basically you need to
- turn off "change with buttons" in Settings->Sounds->Ringer and alerts
- turn on "do not disturb" in Settings.
This way
- the lateral buttons will only affect the music sound;
- all notifications, lock, and unlock will be silent
- but the alarm overruns this, and can still be heard (at the same volume as the music was last left to, I presume).
So you can listen to Bon Iver withouth emails swooshing in and out, and you don't need to remember changing the volume before going to sleep and after waking up I have to say: pretty cumbersome to figure out, Apple!

I can't get the volume to work when I watch a you tube video, there's no volume slide under the play button, and my volume control on my I pad won't do anything either, but the volume of all my alarms and sounds works perfect, what can I do??

Is there a way to pre-set the alarm volume on iPhone?

Is there a way to pre-set the alarm volume on iPhone? Every evening I have to remember to adjust the volume to 3 bars, versus full volume during the day.

I cannot believe this problem hasn't been rectified yet!
If I use the pre installed ringtone as an alarm and set it low so I don't jump out of my skin, then my call volume is too low the next day, so have to change it.
If I use a song as an alarm, I have the same problem, but its when I watch a video. I set it quiet, then jump out of my skin the next morning if I've left it tuned up after watching YouTube. Also works the other way if I've watched a video with the sound down, and forget to turn it back up, then I don't hear my alarm, which makes me late!
It could also do with an ascending volume option, so it starts nice and quiet to wake you gradually. My old phones from pre iPhone days had these features and they worked great.
Surely this isn't that much of an issue to sort out. Yet I've seen posts back as far as 2006 complaining about it.
Come on apple pull your finger out!

Can't adjust the alarm volume

Why is it that the alarm volume does not change if you change the phone volume setting on the 1-30 scale. The alarm volume level is insanely loud, and s always the same whether you phone volume setting is on 1 or 30.
It would be very nice if the volume of the alarm could be changed as well as currently it scares the s..t out of me every morning when it goes off.

Currently there is no way to adjust the volume of the alarm clock sound. Even with GDR2 installed.
All i can suggest is for you to choose an alarm sound that isn't so disturbing.
I do agree though that the ability to adjust the alarm volume should be there along with the ability to have separate volume controls for other aspects of the phone's sound system.

How do you change the alarm volume, how do you change the alarm volume

How do you change the alarm volume on a iPhone 5C?

You can change it in Settings > Sounds > Ringer and Alerts (or with the buttons on the side of the phone if you have "Change with Buttons" turned on in that same section of Settings > Sounds).
Note that this change is not specific to the Alarm -- it will change the volume of incoming calls and other alerts as well as the alarm.
I have found it works better for me to set the sound at the volume I want it to be for incoming calls and then to find an Alarm sound that works best with that volume level. Without changing the volume, some Alarm sounds seem louder or quieter (or at least more or less irritating). You select the sound when setting the alarm and the sound selected will then be the default on future alarms.

Downloaded ringtone, from iTunes store, is so loud! Volume is all the way down, but the ringtone is crazy loud. Help?!

I downloaded a ringtone from the iTunes store and set it as my text tone. Cool, right? Well, IT'S SO LOUD. My volume is all the way down and people clear across the building can hear it! What can I do?

You should have gotten a user manual. If the manual is of no help, contact the manufacturer.

Alarm Volume on Nokia E5

Hello,
Does anyone know how to control the alarm volume on the nokia E5? Just got the phone a week ago and almost had a heart attack every morning. I tried controlling it via the profile "normal" and customize but the volume only works for the actual ring. Please help!
Thx,
Dan

Its not covered in the manual because Ringtone volume is controlled by sound profiles' settings.
Menu -> Settings -> Profiles -> [up/down to select profile] press Options (Left Soft or Navi key) -> Adjust -> scroll down to Ringtone Loudness -> press Change (again: Left Soft or Navi key) and adjust it by pressing left/right.
Volume buttons are controlling media players' volume when they're on (Music Player, Real Player), or volume during calls.
[Sorry if the names of options differ slightly, my software is in another language so I'm just guessing, but you should easily get it right anyway]
Did it help? Then hit the green Kudos Star button on the left.

IPod Touch 4G Alarm Volume

I just purchased a new 4G Touch and got it all set up with the data from my 3G and noticed right away that the volume for the clock alarm was about half as loud as the 3G. I remember hearing of issues with the alarm due to the setting for the new year but I can't see where this would affect the volume.
Any ideas, and yes the volume is all the way up.

I had the same problem - go into your settings, sound, and there is a separate volume for "Ringer and Alerts" you can slide it up to full volume or turn on the "Change with Buttons" feature.

Where is the remote volume control in the new ITUNES - I cant adjust my volume control remotely on my Zepplin Air anymore

Hi I have downloaded the new itunes 12.01 - since then I have had nothing but trouble with my Zepplin Air. Now I cant remotely change the volume control on it, only being able to change it on my connect

I did try that too (was already turned on). It seems like this is a big step backwards, since even if control center worked in YouTube, it requires stopping the video, opening the control center, closing it, and restarting the video. Very counterproductive to simply restoring a volume slider on the basic You Tube controller, next to the timeline slider. Again, I appreciate the help. For now, I can use the buttons on the side of the iPad (not as convenient), and hope a newer version of You Tube will restore volume controls that work in next upgrade.

DV8T - Sound Works Half the Time - HELP!

Hello,
I have had my DV8T-1200 for about a week now and this problem has existed the entire time I have owned the computer.
Sound works fine for an hour or so. Then, it gets into this strange situation. Sound stops working. If I look at the windows volume mixer, and it shows that whatever program is playing sound (Chrome, Rhapsody, WMC, WMP, Internet Explorer, etc.) has sound coming out of it (I know this because the volume indicators show the green sound bars bouncing all over), however, under the device sound in the mixer, it shows that no sound is coming out.
However, there is one very strange temporary fix - if I go to the control panel, open up the sound card settings dialog, and go to the "enhancements" tab, and then do the following procedure: disable enhancements, apply, re-enable enhancements, apply. Then sound starts working again 80% of the time. However, it only works for ONE more song, then immediately inbetween tracks some glitch happens again, and the sound goes back to not working. Usually I can do this enhancements-trick as many times as I want, and it will work. However, sometimes it does not work, and there is a different fix - if I tell the sound card options that a different device is the default, then reset the main sound as the default, sometimes this is the fix..
Here are the diagnostics I have tried:
I know nothing is muted.
I have tried headphones, problem is there as well.
I have updated the IDT drivers
I have updated the BIOS
I have went into the IDT HD audio configuration panel, and messed around with ALL the audio enhancements.
I have went into the control panel, to the sound options, and have ensured the the correct device is checked as the default.
I called HP, and they said "well we need to wipe your computer clean, and go back to factory settings. problem - it didnt' work them either, and the only thing I have installed is Rhapsody, and Microsoft office. So I just don't think this is a good fix.
PLEASE help! Is anyone else having these problems?

I also have a dv8t-1200 with windows 7 64 bit for less that a month now. As soon as I got it, I noticed that sound would work sometimes and not others. Usually when I use other audio sources like iTunes, or www.amazon.com mp3 samplers or the installed Corel Movie Wizard. I can usually fix it by starting and stopping all the programs, or bringing up the IDT audio control and doing some tests. It does not always occur the same way or the same time or under the same conditions that I can tell, but happens a lot. I think if the audio chip were going out, I could not easily play extended audio which is no problem. It is only when the mixer gets involved. Like you, the mixer shows the audio is still there, just not coming out of the speakers.
I HAVE noticed it happens ONLY (when I try and use one or both of the dual headphone jacks for external speakers.
I've tried all the fixes you have except wiping the system. I've also checked the option to let programs take exclusive control of the audio. Nothing works.
HP, are you listening, you have a problem here. Please fix it or I will have to return the PC.

Can I lock the volume curve to the track so it moves with the track?

I can't seem to move the volume curve when I move the section or track. Is it possible to lock the volume curve to the track or section? Otherwise I have to recreate the curve for that section or track which seems so completely inefficient that I can't imagine that is how it is supposed to be done.
Thank you!

here, this should help:

Would the alarm clock works with the tablet is off / shutdown?

Hi all
Some users (including me) will turn off / shutdown their device when they are asleep to conserve device battery life.
Would the alarm clock work if the tablet is off / shutdown? I do know some smartphone alarm clock would work when the smartphone is off and when it's ringing, it would just automatically turn on the device without user manually on it.
Have a nice day!
