Help! Can't adjust the volume of my ipad 2 - volume button not appearing

Hi. My ipad has no sound - especially when playing music. The volume button is just broken (not the one on the side but on the music app itself) - I can't adjust the volume, the round thing to adjust it is just gone, and it's just gray and no sound at all. But when I ask Siri/adjust the ringer, there's still a sound. So I don't really get it.
Even when I plug in the earphones, there's still no sound and I still can't adjust the volume
The volume buttongs on the side doesn't do anything
I tried reseting my ipad

iPad 2

    Hello, Miryam Maria. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities. 
    I see you are experiencing issues with sound on applications when playing video/audio content.  If this is the case, the first thing I would check is if the side switch is set to silent as this can cause applications to be mute.  Below I have included an article that covers adjusting the  settings for the side switch.  Also, make sure to close all applications in Multitasking and power cycle the device.  Test the sound issue after processing these steps.

  • Hi Guys! I have an Imac with Mac OS X version 10.5.8 and bought a wireless keyboard. Unfortunately I can´t use the volume buttons on the keyboard. I have checked almost everything, does anyone have any good idea?

    First, Go to System Preferences, keyboard, and click on the Keyboard tab
    Make sure that the checkbox by "Use all F1, F2, etc, keys as standard function keys" is NOT checked.
    Next, click on the Show All button, and select Bluetooth. You should see your Apple Wireless Keyboard listed on the left side of the screen.
    Click once to select it, and then click the gear icon at the bottom of the box, and choose Disconnect.
    Power off the keyboard by holding down the power button on the keyboard for a few seconds until it show "keyboard Off on your imac screen, then turn it back on again.
    The device should appear once again in your bluetooth list.
    Try out the volume control buttons now, and see if that cleared things up

    how can i fix "the sim card inserted in this iphone does not appear to be supported " after restoring a factory unlocked iphone 4

    The term "factory unlocked" has no meaning. Your phone was not legitimately unlocked. Contact the carrier it is locked to and find out if you can get it unlocked.

  • I can't adjust the volume on my IPhone!  HELP!

    I can't hear any alerts and the volume doesn't adjust when I push the side buttons.  I do not have the sounds locked and I have the feature on to allow adjusting the volume with the buttons.  When I push the side buttons the ringer icon comes up but the volume wont adjust.

    I had the same issue. I also couldn't hear any music or sound from apps and no sound when I typed a text message. But ringer worked which was odd. I sent in for repair and Apple sent me a replacement device.

  • Can't adjust the volume while using DJ controller

    I've got a DJ controller. I just hopped from Windows to MAC (Pro Retina 13). I basically use Traktor DJ whenever I mix. Normally when I'd quit the program for DJing, the controller kept working - so I could play music via youtube through my speakers.
    And just control the volume overall with the volume keys. Now that I'm on MAC, the DJ program works fine and I can control the master with a knob, but as soon as I quit the DJ program - It plays music through youtube and iTunes just fine, the only thing is it won't allow me to adjust the volume in any way.
    The controller is mapped to a program, I can't use a master knob to adjust the volume out of the program...
    Whenever I try to adjust the volume with the F11 and F12 keys it just shows an O with a slash through it.
    I really want to control my volume through my mixer, please help!!!

    Have you by chance installed an app called "Boom"?

  • Since my update, I can't adjust the volume from my keyboard...the volume keys have a locked symbol that shows when I press them.  I checked System preferences but can't find a way to get the lock off.  Thoughts?

    I can't adjust my volume from the keyboard volume controls... they seem to be locked.  I tried system preferences, but couldn't find how to "unlock" them.  Thoughts?

    Did you try unchecking this function?  It seems to work in reverse of what you would expect, or is that just my imagination?

  • I can't adjust the volume of my iPad 2.

    Whenever we're adjusting the volume, there will be a bar that comes up, together with the speaker symbol. Now, there's only the speaker symbol without the volume bar. The sound went away suddenly as I was playing some games on my iPad.

    1. If Side Switch is set to Mute, check to make sure it's not muted

    2. Check the Volume buttons

    3. Double-click the Home button; swipe the Task Bar to the right. Check the Mute and Volume settings.

  • If you rent a movie through iTunes can you watch the movie on your iPad if you are not connected to internet or 3g

    If you rent a movie through iTunes, can you watch the movie on your iPad if you not in an area that does not have wifi or 3G access?  Such as on an airplane, etc...

    Yes - as long as the movie has totally and fully downloaded onto the iPad.

  • Can you adjust the volume of the alert sound, iPhone5?

    iPhone5.
    Can the volume and length be adjusted for alert sounds?  For instance, I would like to set an alert or alarm that rings LOUDER than my phone normally rings.

    but you can't lengthen it unfortunately.
    Bear in mind, the screen is the largest consumer of power.

  • Can I adjust the volume of system sounds?

    I need to raise the computer's volume to listen to music in iTunes through the built-in speakers. Is there a way to lower the volume of the system sounds independently so they do not interfere with the music? Thank you very much for an answer.

    Yes, go to System Preferences > Sound > Sound Effects tab > lower the "alert volume" slider to your desired preference.
    Regards,
    Captfred

  • How can I make the volume buttons on my iPod Touch control ALL sounds - not just alerts and system sounds?

    I would like to TOTALLY silence my iPod.  I turn the volume all the way down using the buttons on the side, but this just silences alerts and system sound effects.  Then I start a game, and the game sounds still play.  Of course I can turn the volume down after the game starts, but by then I'm already busted :-)
    I don't know if it's related, but...
    I can plug in my headphones and then turn the game volume all the way down. But when I remove the headphones, the volume goes back up again.

  • HT5622 On Itunes when I listen to my music I can't turn up the volume at all it's on but only at a certain level I turn it up any higher. On my computer i can turn up the volume but not on i tunes even if I click it to be higher i goes back.

    the volume for i tunes wont change it stays at a constant volume it wont let me turn it up or down. I can pause though.

    How are you trying to play them, in the iTunes store or the Music and Videos apps ? Downloaded and synced music and videos should be in the Music and Videos apps, and you can stop content that is only in the cloud from showing in them via Settings > iTunes & App Store > Music and Videos 'off' (under the 'show all' heading).
    If you don't have your music and films/TV shows in those two apps then you should be able to download them into those apps via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app.
