Any advice on increasing the volume on my Classic?

I have recently bought an iPod classic for the first time.
The volume is a real disappointment and is so low on certain tracks and in certain places eg whenever there is a deal of background noise, that it is almost unlistenable.
I have tried to turn the volume up on iTunes via file/get info/volume adjustment, maximise the volume on my iPod before synching, disable Sound Check on my iPod but nothing works.
It may be that the source of material on my iTunes is varied - emusic, iTunes store, CDs etc - but I would have expected to be able to adjust this if it were an issue.
I would welcome advice on the matter - it is ruining my enjoyment of my new purchase.
Many thanks
John

The problem is the varying volume on the input sources. The approach I've taken is to do the volume adjustment for each individual file in iTunes (it's one of the tabs when you look at the attributes). That increases the volume for playback through the headphones and the classic itself, but not iTunes. You can do "equalize volumes", but that just adjusts the same slider. ON the Classic itself, disable the sound check. It can also be the quality of your headphones -- you can get headphones with additional amplification.
(Lastly, it could be all that loud music you listen to :-)).

My loudspeaker are very low (switched to max) any way to increase the volume. (IPad 1)?

Never mind. I see. Siri simply has it's own volume and you can adjust it while in Siri itself. It was set low by default.

Is there any way to increase the volume beyond maximum volume?

Is there any way I can increase the volume on the internal speaker on my MAC Pro Tower beyond what it is at maximum volume?
Thank you.

Depending on what you're trying to do, there are a few solutions.
If you're just using the machine normally & playing games, etc, then get some amplified speakers, or if you have a stereo system available at your work/home you can get an adapter cable that will let you run from the line out of the Mac Pro to the input jack on your stereo.
If you're looking to so more serious audio production, then look for an audio interface. Companies like M-Audio, MotU (Mark Of The Unicorn), Akai Pro, and Apogee (among others) make some great devices that connect via USB or Firewire, and will offer better sound out, which you can then connect either to an amplifier, studio monitors, or even PA gear.

How can I increase the volume on an audio track imported from a GarageBand project, beyond the 11

I have an audio track, mp3, originally recorded in GarageBand, but with an recording level set too low. I've now adjusted the volume in the audio track to the max, but during playback it's still rather quiet. I have to turn the volume on my Mac to the max to have it at an acceptable playback level. Is the any why to increase the volume on that track any further?

How can i increase the volume of 6plus when make phonecalls

How can I increase the volume when I make the phonecalls. I already tried the normal method like press the slide volume button but it doesn't work.Is there any other methods to solve the problem?

Did you try that while on a phone call? Also there are different volumes for different devices. If you have your earbuds in and set a volume that will change the volume for when your earbuds are in. If you have a bluetooth headset you can set a volume for that.

Increasing the Volume of a Garageband Recording in Logic Express 8

I'm new to Logic Express, but I'd like to use it to increase the volume of a multi-track recording that I made in Garageband. (Of course, there may be a way to increase the volume of the recording IN Garageband; however, if so, I don't know how to go beyond the 6 db level that seems to be the max for each track.) Here's what I tried to do: I imported the mixed-down, AIFF audio file that I made in Garageband into Logic Express and then I pushed the master volume slider to the maximum. I then saved and exported the file from Logic Express as another AIFF file (with a different file name, of course), thinking that the new recording would be louder. It wasn't. Any idea what I might try next? Thanks in advance for any help.

I've found an answer to my own question. I simply imported the recording that I made in Garageband into a new Garageband file and then turned up the volume. I'd still like to know how to do this in Logic Express, though, since I'd like to move to that more sophisticated program.

Increasing the volume on flv files

I've got about 200 flv files have issues with volume. I need to increase the volume on each. Is their a quick and easy way. They all load into the one swf file so is there any code I can add to the swf the will automatically increase the volume of any flv thats loaded into it? Thanks

If you use Netstream:
var ns:NetStream=new NetStream();
var nsst:SoundTransform=new SoundTransform(1);
ns.play('filename.flv');
ns.soundTransform=nsst;
nsst.volume=2;//This alone will not change the stream's volume
ns.soundTransform=nsst;// You have to reapply it by doing this again

How can I increase the volume of my text alerts without increasing call volume??

The alerts that are pre-programed on my phone for text alerts are very quiet. When I turn the volume up so that I can hear them then my call volume is embarrassingly loud. I have tried to get new tones in the store but they all seem to download to my ringtone - not text tones. I have even purchased (from the Verizon store) tones that are for texts, but again, they download into my call ringtones. Any suggestions would be great since I am a big texter and am getting very frustrated because of missing so many.

@Halon,
I know how you feel! Text messaging is my main means of communication so I use it all the time. I definitely don't want you missing any important text messages because you can't hear the alert.
Keep in mind that the volume level will increase or decrease the same for both calls and text alerts. You may notice that the ring tones options for the text messages are not as loud as the ones for calls. Unfortunately, there is no way to increase the volume for the text alerts without increasing the volume for the call alerts as well.
One thing you can try is turning in the Vibrate mode so the phone vibrates also when you receive a text messages. Visit http://vz.to/1aflRJ0 for steps.
Keep me posted if you need further assistance.

Any updates that make the volume louder?

I don't know if it's just my ears, but it seems that the volume on my Macbook is becoming lower of the the time I've had it (3-4 months) Are there any updates available that increase the volume?

No - just make sure you have all the regular/required updates by launching the 'Software Update...' function that is under the Apple Icon (upper left of your screen).
If you're certain that your sound is diminishing (the volume on the Macbook is barely adequate as it is) then I suggest stopping by your Apple Tech/Store and maybe bringing your Macbook along to compare with the other models.

Why does my iphone keep increasing the volume?

Why does my iphone keep increasing the volume? it isn't the buttons and i keep trying to fight it and keeps increasing... Any advise, i seem to be the only one having this problem. The phone just keeps increasing volume by itself and can't do anything about it, its off and on.

Because you have repeat on. Turn it off.

Both volume buttons increase the volume.

Recently my iPod Nano 6th Gen started acting up.
Both volume buttons increase the volume, it sometimes randomly changes to both volume buttons decreasing the volume.
The iPod was bought in America, however I live in South Africa and there is no official Apple support over here.
To my understanding Apple warranty is international? Should I try get a replacement through Apple (and how?) or just take it to a third party repair shop over here?
Any help will be appreciated.

You have 14 days from the date of purchase to get a "replacement." As for repairs, the standard warranty is one year from the date of purchase. The extended Warranty is called Apple Care which last 2 years from the date of purchase.

IS THERE A WAY OF INCREASING THE VOLUME ON A USB DOWNLOADED WITH I TUNES? WHEN I PLAY MUSIC FROM IT IN MY BMW IT IS NOT VERY LOUD.

IS THERE A WAY OF INCREASING THE VOLUME ON A THUMB DRIVE DOWNLOADED WITH ITUNES MUSIC? WHEN PLAYBACK ON BMW RADIO, EVEN WITH THE RADIO VOLUME AT MAX, MUSIC IS NOT VERY LOUD.

Can't answer the query, since I don't use thumb drives and my volume's very responsive. That said, please don't post using ALL CAPS. That's considered shouting and is very disconcerting.

Whilst playing a selection from a CD I've put in my CD drive, I select Controls and then wish to increase the volume. It tells me to Press Control and then Up. Where is the Up button please ? Thank you.

My question is how do I increase the volume when playing a CD in iTunes. The volume slide is at full, but when I press Controls, it tells me to press Control and UP. Where is the UP on my PC or is it on the screen ??
Thank you.

It means the UP arrow on your keyboard. Depending on your keyboard, it is usually located on the right hand side of the keyboard, either with the numbers keys or below the Enter (Return) key.
However, Control/Up will simply attempt to move the slider in your iTunes programme further up. If the slider is already at the top, then those keys will have no effect, since the iTunes volume is already at maximum. Perhaps your computer's volume controls need adjusting.
In Windows XP, I believe (if I recall correctly) that the volume control is in Start/Accessories/ and either Volume or Mixer. In Windows 7, it's in Start/Control Panel/Hardware and Sound/Adjust Sytem Volume.

Is there any way to increase the font size in the Creative Cloud. Using a Lenovo Yoga 2 with 14" screen and care barely see the menus

Is there any way to increase the font size in the Creative Cloud. Using a Lenovo Yoga 2 with 14" screen and care barely see the menus.

In short, no. There is no fix yet. They only barely acknowledge there is a problem. The "fix" is to enable 200% UI scaling which makes everything comically huge and unusable. This is pretty much of a joke. A really, really EXPENSIVE joke.

Is there any way to control the volume on my Apple TV?

Here's the scenario: I have a small amplifier under my couch that controls the speakers connected to my Apple TV. When I use Airplay from my iPhone to listen to music, I'm able to control the volume right from the music App on my phone- this is perfect because I don't like to reach under the couch to change the volume. However, there are two scenarios when I cannot seem to adjust the volume anywhere except on the amp. These are:
First: Using Airplay while playing a video from my MacBook Pro to the Apple TV. In this case, the volume slider in iTunes suddenly has a little lock icon on it and is unadjustable. Is there any way to unlock the volume?
Second: When using the Apple TV directly to play any media- music or movies. The volume up and down buttons on the Apple TV don't control the volume. I'm forced to reach under the couch to adjust the volume- which happens quite frequently. Is there any way to control the output volume of the Apple TV?
The lack of volume control has been super disappointing. I've been a (multiple) airport express user for years so kind of expected Airplay to work the same for video- with the ability to control the volume from whatever device was transmitting. Can anyone help me?

Andrew- this is how I would expect things to work. However, when I use airplay from my iPhone to say, play a youtube video, the volume on the phone is suddenly rendered useless and I'm forced to adjust the amplifier. When I just play audio from the phone, the volume works.
It's the same on my macbook pro. If I mirror the screen, my computer's volume affects the speakers volume. However, if I am in itunes and play a movie and use airplay for that, I get a lock on the volume. Is this a setting somewhere?

Any advice on increasing the volume on my Classic?
