Alert Volume goes to Zero

Since the Yosemite upgrade, overtime I start up, the volume in the menu bar is zero, despite being set to full volume in system preferences. The mute button is not checked, so that is not the problem. I have to manually reset the volume in the menu bar overtime I start up.

I tried trashing the audio preferences in the Library folder, and still have the same problem. The volume is fine in the System Preferences Sound Control Panel, but zero in the menu bar at startup every time.

IMac volume goes to zero

Since updating to Yosemite, every time I start up my iMac's volume goes to zero, despite being set to full volume in the sound control panel. The mute button is not checked so that is not the problem.

Volume going down automatically

the volume on my ipod touch is going down automatically without me touching it .. Ive put it back up but with 10seconds it will go down again, this isnt my ipod touch as i bought it second hand and have had it over 2years now .. I've tried restarting it but nothing works, is there a solution to my problem ??

I have been having the same problem with my iPhone 3GS for about 2-3 weeks. The phone seems to have a mind of its own: at any time (i.e., under conditions I cannot predict), the icon for ringer volume comes onto the screen, turns the ringer volume down to one dot, and stays there. I mean the volume stays at zero, AND that the icon stays on the screen.
Sometimes this happens in little bits at a time, other times it happens all at once. However, the end result always seems to be that the ringer volume stays down and the volume icon stays on the screen, in front of whatever is there.
I have not done any firmware updates recently. I have added a couple apps. I will sync/backup and try a restore, but I'm afraid I may have to take it to the Genius Bar.
I'm glad to see that this has happened to at least one other person. I can't explain it. I've got OS 3.1.2.

How can I schedule the Ringer and Alerts volume?

On a daily basis, I turn down the Ringer and alerts volume at night so my alarm clock does not wake me up with a super loud alarm. I then move the volume up before going to work so I can hear my phone ring throughout the day. This same routine happens every work day. I was wondering if there's an app that I can use to schedule how this volume goes up or down? kind of like the Do not disturb... any ideas?
Thanks!

Get an alarm app that has an independent volume and/or raises the volume over a few minutes (most of them will do this).
Also, you can schedule different alarms for different days (such as M-F then weekends) with different sounds.

Sound volume goes down spontaneously

For the last few months I have had a problem on both my macbook pro and my mac mini that they both seem to get stuck with the volume going down to zero and the volume change indicator the speaker with the little boxes below it going down to muted volume and when you try to increase the volume you get one bar of volume and the second you let go of the key it instantly goes back down. I have tried on both changing out the speakers for the mac mini and used headphones on the MBP but nothing really helps. I did a reinstall of OSX on the mac mini to see if this fixes anything. I have tried just about everything I can think of and I am trying to figure out how I can get it so that this doesn't happen.

Try trashing the "com.apple.systemsound.plist" file then restart your computer.

After iOS5 update ring tone volume go to zero when connect to VW Passat 2011 car kit

My iPhone 4 worked greatly before iOS5 update, after that every time it'll connect to RNS315 bluetooth interface ringtone volume go to zero and i've to re-set manually to the right volume. Re-paired but no changes.
Any ideas?

Well, visited my VW dealer and they said no updates for my car based upon the VIN/Reg and whats more there is no way this is a VW issue. Something in the iO5 5 bluetooth area has changes for the worse to force this to happen. THis is an Apple issue not a VW one and they should resolve, hoped that the 5.01 would fix, but no. Come on Apple sort this problem out.

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 I put headphones into my phone volume going down automatically

I have a iPhone 5 IOS 7.1.2 when I plug my headphone into my phone volume going down automatically please help me thank you

Your iPhone has separate volume settings for using headphones and when using the on-phone speakers. In other words, the volume will change when headphones are plugged in. This is by design. There is no separate setting in advance, just the change in volume setting after you change the audio device. For me, this is good because I usually have the volume up high when using the speakers and want it significantly lower when using the headphones. Having the individual settings keep me from blasting my ears when I plug the headphones in.

I am having a macbook pro 13" whenever I connect my reliance netconnect to it its volume goes down by 50%...

The problem is the Reliance software. You can verify this in the crash report. Try bypassing the Reliance software and just use the Network System Preference pane. Enter the same infromation there as you would in the Reliance software. Then hit "connect." It's worked pretty well for me.

Extended network often goes to zero

Hi.
Surprisingly my extended network often goes to zero. I've a traditional wep encripted extended network using two airport extreme. When the network goes to zero I see the indicator on the upper right corner disappear anche the green light of the airport becomes flashing yellow. After 30 seconds the situation auto-fixes.
How can I solve the problem? I've just checked the main range, it works properly!.
Thanks in advance for your help.

Alert volume tied to device volume in iOS 8

Hi there,
We just recently upgraded to iOS 8 on my wife's and my phones. My wife has a iPhone 5c, and is showing an unusual problem. Whenever she adjusts the device volume on the phone, her alerts are played back at the same volume. I did numerous tests, checking to see if her switch was set to change the ringer and alerts volume (it is turned off), and after she adjusts the volume, the ringer and alerts volume isn't adjusting along as expected. What ends up happening is when she turns down her device volume, her alerts get very quiet even if her alerts volume is around 90%. I verified the other direction too, where if we turn down the alerts volume and pump up the device volume, the alert is very loud.
This behavior was not the case in iOS 7.1.2, and I'm wondering if it's a bug in her build and if we should try a restore, or if this is a more widespread problem. My iPhone 5s has none of these problems. Any suggestions would be helpful. Thank you!

I Have just confirmed that this problem occurs at least in two cases: after I use the tts to read screen, and after I listen to podcast.i do have found a temporary solution: in my case I can use a so called soft reset to get back normal. Namely you just hold the power until the power off prompt. Then release the power button and hold home for 10 seconds until the home pops out itself. Accordingly this method terminates all the user generated processes in the background including the process that causes this volume issue. Try it and see if it fixes you problem. It works for me as a temporary solution.

Nokia 5530 xpress music: The volume goes down when...

Hi All
I hope all of you are fine
Nokia 5530 xpress music: when I play the music without Nokia headset the volume seems great but when I play the same song with headset the volume goes down.
is the problem from Nokia Headset or from the mobile itself?
Thanks in advance

I think this is Normal.
Otherwise It wouldn't do your hearing much good if you set the volume to maximum and then plugged in your headset

Formula automatically populate the date when inventory goes to "zero"

Hello- I am trying to create a formula that will automatically populate the date when inventory goes to "zero".
Date: Row 3 Columns P-AB
Inventory: Rows 5-400 Columns P-AB
Column J rows 5-400 is where I want the inventory run-out date to auto-pop
with so many rows of data, where stock goes to "O" will clearly vary per row. I want this formula, to look between Col. P-AB and tell me in Col. J when my inventory goes to "zero"
Thank you!

Thank you for your reply...using your formula, I'm still not coming up with inventory run-off date from row 3.
I need Column J to give me the date when my inventory is "0".

Mac Mini sound goes to zero on its own.

I have had my mini since 2009. This issue has happened intermittantly since I got it but has happened several times in the last while. The sound output goes to zero. On it's own. I go into system preferences to sound and slide the bar back to my desired level and all is ducky until it happens again. I suppose I should have spoken to Apple about this when Applecare was still in play but it did not happen much. Silly me. Any ideas about the cause? I am guessing this is mobo related and a cure will be costly. If I go that route.
I run a line out of the headphone jack that splits to my amp and a set of headphones.

Well, it was just a shot at a possibilility.
Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), & use Disk Utility from there to Repair Permissions, trash these files...

/Users/YourUserName/Library/Preferences/com.apple.systempreferences.plist
Reboot.
