Calendar alerts not loud enough

My iphone5 alerts are way too soft, and I can't hear them. The ringer is set to max, but I can't figure out how to set the calendar alerts to high. When I do a hard reset it works for a while (less than a day) but then goes way down in volume. I need a good, loud alert for appointments. I've set it to vibrate, but it's not always in a pocket so I can feel it. Please help me. I'm missing appointments because of this. I think it started after the last iOS update, but it seems more recent than that.

You may want to look into using another sound for the tone, or possibly another app to use for reminders. I don't know of another way to make it any louder.

Song in my iphone 4 not loud enough when i play on the dock speaker.

when i play song on my iphone using dock speaker the song not loud enough.. pls help.

If your dock is connected to an amplifier/speaker system try this:
With your phone sitting in the dock, try to increase the volume, using the volume control buttons of the phone. Set it to max and you should have more sound coming out of your speakers.

Volume - Not loud enough.

My husband and I would like to listen/watch videos without headphones, however, the maximum volume is not loud enough for us to understand some words. Is there a way of increasing the maximum volume output without the use of external speakers or headphones?
Thanks.

Open iTunes on your computer---Podcast--->
Pick the Podcast you want to raise the volume--->
Press the keys...Command+i--->
Press the Option tab--->
Check the box Volume Adjustment...Set the volume to your liking.
or set it to 100%
If you want to do all the podcast at one time. Choose all the podcasts at one-time. You can do the same with movies and music too. If you want to adjust the volume to a select few in you library, Seclect All--->Option key and click on the podcasts (video, music) that you want to deselect.

ITunes not loud enough

I have a Toshiba P205 notebook. All the drivers are up to date. When I listen to podcasts on iTunes, I have to turn the volume all the way up, set the preamp to max, everything, and it's still not loud enough. When I run the 'test' app from Realtek, it's loud enough to break glass. What's up with iTunes?
Same thing on my iPhone 3GS. Just not loud enough.
Ideas?

I have to turn the volume all the way up, set the preamp to max,
What "preamp"?
iTunes has its own volume separate from the system volume. Top left under the Play button.

Microphone voice of iPhone4 is not loud enough

I call to my parents yesterday, but they complained the voice was not loud enough.
Version is 5.11, I bought it in Apple.com 18 September.

- Go to Settings>Sound and see if a Sound Limit is set. I
Make sure it is at max
- EU has recently required that devices like the iPod limit volume lower to preserve hearing. Thee is no way to raise that limit. USA and other placs to not have that limit. The limit is locked to a unique identifier on the iPod like SN so restoring does not remove it.

HT1918 the tone is not loud enough on my i pod

My tone is not loud enough on my i pod and i can not make it louder.

I´m using same config, MBA rocksmith cable and Mic powered by a (singleAA baterry) Ive tried recording in Quicktime (more or less noise, good volume), audacity(way too low volume) SoundtrackPro (same low volume), GARAGEBAND (lot better volume and very decent recording, great presets and much better export options!
when you listen your recording on garageband it will sound LOW volume, im using mac headphones almost at max vol, maybe it lowers the volume so there is no feedback,... BUT whe you export to file and open it on Soundtrack or quicktime VOALA! normal voice recording is hitting 0dbs, so that gives me chance to lower down to -12dbs after doing my edits.
Use GARAGEBAND to recrod voice, or any other intrument, works great with Rocksmith USB cable, mic does require use of AA battery.
Busting my head with this for hrs until I tried Garageband.
good luck.

HT4528 sound is not loud enough

My ringtones for phone calls is not loud enough. Is there a way to increase this other than the norm?

To turn the volume up, go to Settings > Sounds and slide the volume bar to the right.
Press the volume + button when you're on your home screen to turn the sound up.
Double-tap your Home button and flick your finger from left to right TWICE and slide that bar to the right
Remove any cases that you have and test it also
If its still not loud enough for you after doing these, you can reset all settings (Settings > General > Reset). If its still not quite what you want, restore it as new in iTunes on your computer or take it to the Apple Store http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1414?viewlocale=en_US

Zen Vision M 30 GB : sound not loud enough and how to change title of albums on the

Hi, I'm a french ZVM new user so sorry for my bad english !?Two questions :?) I have very good ears, I don't like to listen the music too loud?but my ZVM does not play loud enough. I always need to put volume on level 25 (the maximum) when I'm listening to ZVM outside (and in the quiet of my house, I still have to put volume around 22 to hear something). I've red on this forum that one of the solution is to upgrade the version of the firmware. My ZVM is loaded at present with version .40.02. Can the download of the last version available on the creative website solve my problem ? Is there another way to solve it ?2) I've used the software CREATIVE MEDIA EXPLORER to load my cd's albums on my ZVM. But there are some mistakes in the title of the albums loaded (the ID3 tag are sometimes wrong). How can I change the wrong titles on my ZVM ? I've changed them on the files on my PC, with CREATIVE MEDIA EXPLORER but the changes are not uploaded on my ZVM. Thanks a lot for your answers and advices

For the sound issue, try some diff buds and see what happens. Contact customer support.

Ios7 calendar alerts not working.

I have an iphone 5s and my brother has an iphone 5. both have IOS7. The calendar alerts are not working. We both set events and the events show just fine. It even syncs to iCloud and shows up on my iMac etc. But the iphone does not alert. I always set a 2 hour followed by a 1 hour alert for my appointments. While the alert shows on my imac, nothing shows up on the iphone. I checked to make sure that the iphone seeting for calendar allow notifications and everything is setup ok.
Anyone have this issue?

Calendar alerts not happening

My calendar entries have little yellow bells by them, but the Bb's not giving any kind of audible alert tone or vibration when the appt. is due. I've looked in calendar options, profiles, where my Bb is set to "normal," and settings, but nothing about setting the calendar alerts is there. It seems like such a simple issue--anyone know how to turn on the calendar alert?
Thanks so much for your time, and best wishes!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You have to first click on your profile icon, then scroll down and select advanced. Then click on normal if that's what you use. Then you will see all the things you can change the tone for. Click calendar and adjust as you wish, just remember to hit the back key and save.

E50 not loud enough

Hello,
Are there any programmatic ways to make E50 louder? It's not loud at all and I cannot listen to music in loud environment. The standard wired headset is not good enough either.
Will I be able to resolve the issue with other headsets?

Hi,
buy a stereo hmm... adapter Nokia AD-46 and a pair of closed canalphones, such as Panasonic RP-HNJ50 and enjoy your music.
http://europe.nokia.com/ad-46
Closed earcanal-phones will block the outside noise. There is even a battery powered noise cancelling earphones Panasonic RP-HC30 that will cancel the noise.
Beware of wearing closed and noise cancelling earphones in dangerous situations, like while riding a bike or walking through city roads, carefully read the instructions.

Output sound, NOT LOUD ENOUGH

I HAVE UPGRADED MY MACBOOK TO LEOPARD OS, AND AUDIO IS REALLY LOW EVEN-THOUGH THE VOLUME IS REALY HIGH. I WENT TO PREFERENCE SETTING, CHECKED SETTINGS AND THEY ARE OK. I CANT HEAR MY MUSIC LOUD ENOUGH THE MY MUSIC OR ANY OTHER AUDIO. PLEASE HELP.

Hello,
Most notebook sound devices usually produce hallow sounds and are normally harder to hear at higher distances. Your best bet, rather than to push the limits of the speakers, ( they aren't great ) is to hook your laptop into some external speakers made for this type of operation. I usually hook my Macbook up to the TV along with my home theater system when I am using Front Row. I highly suggest you do the same.

Ipod not loud enough

I can hardly hear my ipod. I have the volume set at the maximum level, but unless I'm in a soundproof room, I can't hear my music or videos.

if you're using the iPod headphones, the music should be loud enough to have your phones "cackle".
Check your iTunes -- view the song properties, is the volume set at normal? Try setting it higher. Also, enable the Sound Checker, it MIGHT do something.
Lastly, is it just your music or videos?? Regular quality music should be okay.
Or maybe your phones are just defective.

Calendar Alerts not working correctly

When I create event in my iPhone 5s Calendar (iOS 7.0.6), the alert setting is messed up.
I set up 2 alerts (reminders):
For example...
The first would be 2 hours ahead
The second would be 1 hours ahead.
But... the calender ALWAYS put the Second alert FIRST since it's the earliest reminder!
It frustrating as heck as it does it ALL the time!
Has anyone have it happen to them??
Obviously, you want the Furthest date reminder to be the First reminder alert then the Second alert would be closest time to the appointment.
Tried the following under Calendar:
1. Using "edit"... it's "fixed" but upon saving but it puts the Second alert reminder First and vice versa.
2. Tried the "Event Details" screen... tap on Alert and Second Alert to make the changes. You make the changes but the changes are NOT made, at times, at it's reversed. Sometimes it will save but not always.
- If either is saved, you exit to "<Day" then Return to the appointment Only to find out that the Alerts have Switched AGAIN!
Frustrating as heck!!!
Any solutions?!
Thanks!

I have been experiencing this same bug for 3 major releases now! I have called Apple support on it, and there has been no fix even remotely suggested. They aren't even aware of this problem. Clearly, no one from Apple has cared enough to address a major functionality bug like this this, which has been around since 2011....
This is Apple's MO. Make beautiful products, that work wonderfully, but include something sooo stupid that it keeps them from becoming great. They've done this with OSX and the server versions.
Maybe we'll get a fix in iOS 8, but I wouldn't hold my breath, since as far as I can tell, they aren't officially aware of it.
