Control click and lock sounds independently of ringer?

Ever noticed how loud keyboard clicks and screen lock sounds can be in elevators and quiet spaces?
I am looking for a way to have quiet (but not silent) keyboard clicks and lock sounds, while keeping the phone ringer as loud as possible so that I can hear it when it is in my pocket.
I tried everything I could think of, without success: It appears that clicks and lock sounds are always at the same volume as the ringer.
One solution would be to turn these clicks and lock sounds off completely, but I would miss them in everyday use. The other is to do what I do now, which is to reduce the overall volume when I am inside, and put it back to the max when outside - but it is a hassle.
Any solution?
Thank you.
PS: Bonus question: Can Siri be automatically silenced when the mute lock is on? I know that one can silent it when the Siri microphone comes up, but you have to also change this every time you want it back to respond. I had embarrassing/disturbing Siri prompts happen by accidentally holding the home button too long while on mute mode.

Do you turn those sounds? I like the keyboard click sound but it just sound inconsistent and it's annoying...

Keyboard clicks and lock sounds are off even though the settings show them as "on". How can I get them back?

Use the volume buttons on the side of the phone. Personally, I find it's better with those off completely.

Keyboard clicks and lock sounds have quit

The keyboard clicks and the lock sound have quit working on my phone today. I have rebooted the phone and that didn't fix it. Has this happened to anyone else?

Do you have the ring/silent switch on? See the top left side of your phone. Is the red dot showing?

My keyboard Clicks and Lock click has suddenly disappeared. Help?

I woke up today and my KeyBoard Clicks and Lock sound is GONE on my iphone 5. I checked in setting and everything states it is ON, but the clicks are gone. Help??

try this
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).

I have iphone 4s 32GB ,the volume of the ringer and alerts can't be adjusted using the volume buttons and lock sounds and keyboard clicks available, but all not appear ??!!!!!!!

Hi nitramred,
To start troubleshooting this issue where you are unable to adjust the volume after receiving a call, please go ahead and first force close all of the apps currently running on the device, and then reset it by following the steps in the articles below.
iOS: Force an app to close
Turn your iOS device off and on (restart) and reset
Take care,

Photoshop and elements 13
Working in iPhoto
Want to edit image using photoshop elements
Did the following
IPhoto>Preferences>Advanced>Edit Photos: In drop down menu chose in Photoshop Elements
Also control click and chose edit in external editor
Drop down menu edit photos in external program>photoshop Elements
Go to to the image I'm working on --- selected the image, the clicked on edit. When nothing happened I double clicked the image. Still elements didn't open. Then I opened the Elements editor, went back to iphoto and tried the entire process again. the photo still didn't open on Elements 13 for editing.
I have 3 Elements 13 books as well as looked on line--all my references say the exact same thing ---- iPhoto>Preferences>advanced>edit in external program>photoshop Elements
I uninstalled and reinstalled both iPhoto as well as Elements.
I spoke with application technical support. There appears to be nothing wrong with my copy of iPhoto. However there is no support from Adobe. I waited for over 1.5 hours for chat support several days ago, and finally gave up.

You are probably choosing the obvious file rather than the correct file as the PSE editor. The actual editor is hidden away inside the Support Files folder. The PSE file at the top level of the PSE folder in Applications is just an alias for the welcome screen and what you're describing is exactly what happens when you choose that. You want this one:

Lost Clicking and Typing Sounds when Published

Hello,
In the preview of my videos, I could hear both the audio I recorded and the automatic clicking and typing sounds from the mouse and keyboard actions. One I publish my videos, I lose the clicking and typing sounds. How do I get them back?

Hi there
It may depend on your version of Captivate. Assuming version 4, if you click Edit > Preferences... and look at the Preferences dialog, are the options enabled?

Control + Click and Drag

Hi there,
Scenario
I need to use Google Chrome on my early 2011, 13' Macbook Pro (running Mavericks 10.9.2) for an online job. They have their own interface which is only supported by Chrome and not Safari or any other browsers.
Problem
On some specific tasks that I do, I need to draw a box on the interface while Pressing the Control key, but when I press Control and Press mouse button to draw the box, it brings up the MENU. This doesn't seem to be working with Command key either, since unlike windows, CTRL is COMMAND in mac.
I need to figure out how do Control + Click and Drag in the interface.

I don't see anything via that link that I can relate to this posting.
If you want to make the change in frames happen solely based on the direction (x) that the mouse is being moved, then you need to test the current position of the mouse against the last known position...
var startPosition:Number = mouseX;
wwr_mc.gotoAndStop(10);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, onMouse);
function onMouse(e:MouseEvent): void {
    if (mouseX-startPosition >= 0) {
        wwr_mc.nextFrame();
    } else {
        wwr_mc.prevFrame();
   startPosition = mouseX;
I am not sure what you find as being too fast. When you are doing things relative to an extended event, such as a mouse being moved for some time, then it is highly likely that the event will execute the event handler function repeatedly... as fast as the frame rate of the file allows. So if you want more control of the rate at which mouse moves effect nextFrame/prevFrame function calls, then you need to build in some form of delay. In the example below, it takes the form of removing the mouse move event listener for a short period using a timing function (setTimeout in this example, though you could use the Timer class as well)
var startPosition:Number = mouseX;
var delayTime = 250; // 0.25 sec
wwr_mc.gotoAndStop(10);
stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, onMouse);
function onMouse(e:MouseEvent): void {
    stage.removeEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, onMouse);
    var currentPosition:Number = mouseX;
    if (currentPosition-startPosition >= 0) {
        wwr_mc.nextFrame();
    } else {
        wwr_mc.prevFrame();
   setTimeout(setListener, delayTime);
function setListener(){
   startPosition = mouseX;
   stage.addEventListener(MouseEvent.MOUSE_MOVE, onMouse);

My key sounds and lock sounds no longer working, have tried everything!! Please help?

I have only had my iphone 4s for two months. The key sounds and lock sounds not working, happened after plugging it in for charging. It's all switched on in settings. Now it only vibrates when a message comes, or new mail etc, even though I have tones set it doesn't play them. I have done a full restore and hasn't worked either. I have also noticed the amount of power has disspeared (number) now too. What should I do? Thank you!

Thanks, power icon all sorted. But I still can't get the sounds back. I tried that reset at the beginning and it hasn't worked. Tried it again, still the same. What should I try next? Remember I've already tried a system restore. Nothing is working! Don't know what to do next?

The control click and external mouse right click no longer works when copying and pasting album art within itunes. Ex. Hit get info for one song to paste to the rest, copying the artwork wont work when it used to.

My play and skip button will not work on the control center and lock screen

For the first few days I had iOS 7, everything worked fine. Now the Control Center and lock screen will not play, pause, or skip through my music or iTunes Radio. It works fine within music but I would prefer not to have to unlock my phone every time I want to skip a song. Anyone having this issue/know of a way to fix it?

I didn't have that problem, but I had many others. I've always been a fan of Apple but I'm really disappointed with the latest updates. iOS 7 is full of bugs, the worst being in my music app. It crashes, both in my iPhone 5 and iPad 4, it keeps autosyncings songs from the cloud I don't want (and I can't get them erased), plays a song, but shows a different song, to name just a few... I hope they fix this asap, cause that's really annoying me.

I cannot get any sound from my ipad. I tried youtube, pandora and. Iseos and none have any sound. I have checked the control panel and the sound is "on". Any suggestions?

I Am not getting any sound at all from my ipad. I have checked the control panel and it says the sound is "on". Any other suggestions? It has worked just fine in the past.

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430 It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
1. Go to Settings
2. Tap on General
3. Tap on Reset
4. Tap on Reset All Settings
What this effectively does is to reset some of your Settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It doesn’t affect your data. All of your email accounts will remain intact, as well as any SMS text or iMessages.

Where in settings/sounds do I find apple timer sound and lock sound?

After a reset to try and get mains charging back (it didn't work) The Apple alarm has changed its sound and I want to revert to my previous sound but I cannot finf anything that alters this in Settings/Sounds. Also I would linker a stronger sound when I plug into a mains charge ( when I eventually get it back) I can't find that in Settings/Sounds either. Any advice?
Thanks.

I do not know what you mean by the Apple Alarm. If you are talking about the clock app where you can set an alarm, you have to option to set whatever sound you want when you set or edit the alarm setting. If you have an existing alarm, tap the Eidt button in the upper left corner, tap the arrow to the right of the alarm and the Sound setting is the 3rd setting in the list.
If you are not hearing the plug in sound, system sounds have been muted, or so it would seem. You cannot change that sound. You can make it louder in the settings in Sounds>Ringers and alerts. Use the volume slider there and as long as you don't have it set to use the volume button, then whatever you adjust the volume level to in that setting, will be the volume setting for the charging ding.
If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the control center. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Control / Click and Shift /Click in Captivate

I am currently using Captivate 6.1 (and reviewing 7.0) to develop simulation training. Many applications have a requirement to hold down the control or shift key while clicking a click box. Can anyone tell me if this has been sorted in 7.0 or if there is any way to handle this? I have tried using Flash animations but this too provides layering challenges when the interaction after the shift or control click is in the same area as the shift or control click (which is normally the case).
