How to decrease volume to headphones?

I just purchased a new 13 inch macbook, and its perfect! Except for one small thing.
When I'm winding down in bed I like to listen to music quietly. The problem is that when I decrease the volume to one bar, it is still too loud for my IEM's. When I decrease the volume further, it mutes. Someone will suggest that I change the volume of each application, like using the slider in iTunes, etc... But I want the volume for the entire system to decrease, since sometimes the application I'm listening to doesn't have a volume control (some music blogs I use).
Is there any way to decrease the volume further before it mutes? Does anyone know of a way to decrease the volume gap between the mute and first step?

Hold Shift and Option keys down as you adjust the volume, it will move in smaller increments than full bars.

    Try a hard reset of the Nano. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    I assume you have double checked to make sure you are plugging the headset all the way in meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?

  • My AD-41 Headset doesn't Decreases Volume?

    Hi friends...
    I have just bought a new N73 music edition recently.
    I have gotten a problem with my Headset Ad-41.
    All buttons work fine except one, and its the decreasing volume button. I took it to the place I bought the device and asked for this problem. he said all other headsets just work in one way. he said me it just increases volume and doesn't decreases it.
    I wonder how is it possible that a nokia headset device can't decrease volume ?
    is he true? or there is a problem with it?
    tnx
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    He is not telling the truth. The headset is faulty.

  • IPad Mini decrease volume button suddenly stuck down... Overuse?

    A few nights ago, as I was watching YouTube, my decrease volume button on my 1st Gen iPad Mini got jammed down suddenly... It literally was working perfectly moments before. If you press down hard you can still turn the volume down, but it seems to just be stuck down. My Mini has always been in a case (looks brand new, no dents and such) and the power, increase volume buttons still 'click' and work perfectly but I've had it since Christmas 2012 so I think it could just be overuse. Any ideas on how to repair it?
    Thank you!

    Hello thisiscourtney-
    I’m not sure if Apple still performs repairs on 1st Gen iPads anymore, but my recommendation would be to take it to an Apple store or contact Apple directly here for more assistance.
    My guess is that most likely it would be uneconomical to fix, but that’s obviously your decision.
    Thanks for posting!

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.

    how do i get my headphone to work with the iphone? Are there some settings
    that I need to turn on so I can use my headphone while talking on the phone?

    Are you using the earbuds that came with the iPhone? If you are using other earphones, it's possible that they need an adaptor to work with the iPhone's recessed headphone jack.

  • How to decrease the width of left column in the "2 column layout"?

    Hi all,
    I create two webdynpro based iViews in the EP, then I create a page use the "2 column layout(Narrow:Wide)".I put one iview in the left column and another iview in the right column. When I preview my page, I found the left column still too wide. So how to decrease the width of my page's left column?
    Thanks and Best regards
    Deyang

    Hi Deyang,
    You have to create your own layout:
    - Navigate to System Administration->Support
    - Choose Portal Runtime -> Browse Deployment
    - Navigate under pcd or under temp, and download the layouts par (com.sap.portal.layouts.default.par.bak if I recall correctly)
    - Import that par as a project to Developer Studio
    - Make your changes (create a new jsp acording to the existing examples, and update the portalapp.xml accordingly)
    - Export to par (in a different name!) and deploy
    - In the portal content: new from par -> Layout (don't forget to mark it as a template).
    - Your new layout template will now be available when you create new pages.
    good luck!

  • How to Decrease fragmentation level of a table.

    Hello Everyone,
    There is a table present in my production database.
    Its version is Oracle 10G(10.2.0.1.0)
    i)Its size is 26 GB with fragmentation level.
    ii)It has more then 48 crores of rows.
    iii)Its size is 20 GB without fragmentation level.(So 6 GB of unused space is wasted).
    Following are my doubts regarding the above points.
    i) How to decrease the fragmentation level of the table.
    ii) if there is any way to decrease the fragmentation level,how much time it will take to perform the particular activity so as to decrease the fragmentation level.

    Well Mine is Oracle 10G. Hence the production database is Locally Managed.Well it has more then 48 millions of rows in my table
    Definition of Fragmentation :-
    When rows are not stored contiguously, or if rows are split onto more than one block, performance decreases because these rows require additional block accesses.
    When a lot of DML operations are applied on a table, the table will become fragmented because DML does not release free space from the table below the HWM.
    Definition of High Water Mark(HWM):-
    HWM is an indicator of USED BLOCKS in the database. Blocks below the high water mark (used blocks) have at least once contained data. This data might have been deleted. Since Oracle knows that blocks beyond the high water mark don't have data, it only reads blocks up to the high water mark when doing a full table scan.
    Please go through the below example if you have any doubts.
    EXAMPLE:-
    How to find table fragmentation?
    SQL> select count(*) from big1;
    1000000 rows selected.
    SQL> delete from big1 where rownum <= 300000;
    300000 rows deleted.
    SQL> commit;
    Commit complete.
    SQL> update big1 set object_id = 0 where rownum <=350000;
    342226 rows updated.
    SQL> commit;
    Commit complete.
    SQL> exec dbms_stats.gather_table_stats('SCOTT','BIG1');
    PL/SQL procedure successfully completed.
    Now lets determine the size of table
    TABLE SIZE(with fragmentation)
    SQL> select table_name,round((blocks*8),2)||'kb' "size"
    2 from user_tables
    3 where table_name = 'BIG1';
    TABLE_NAME size
    BIG1 72952kb
    ACTUAL DATA in table:
    SQL> select table_name,round((num_rows*avg_row_len/1024),2)||'kb' "size"
    2 from user_tables
    3 where table_name = 'BIG1';
    TABLE_NAME size
    BIG1 30604.2kb
    Note = 72952 - 30604 = 42348 Kb is wasted space in table

    Did you mean Bluetooth? One. Did you mean FM or infrared, driven from the 3.5mm output jack? Any number of them, assuming you use the same frequency to receive the stream.

  • How to decrease width of the dropdown bookmark panel (FF 11)?

    How to decrease width of the dropdown bookmark panel (FF 11)?
    This panel is too wide and covers too much space in underlying windows. The book marks text should not be truncated but some way needs to be found to allow the entire text of any line to be viewed when the cursor lands on it. Much of the information in "HELP" related to this question turns out to be very very old (essentially meaningless in 2012).

    My bookmarks truncate, but only after many, many characters. Then you can view the full title, as well as the URL, in the mouseover tooltip.
    To narrow the width of the bookmark menus:
    (1) There might be an existing add-on targeted to this; I didn't search.
    (2) You could create a custom style rule. One way to do this is to use the Stylish extension and add the following userstyle (create a blank rule first):
    <br>@namespace url(http://www.mozilla.org/keymaster/gatekeeper/there.is.only.xul);
    #bookmarksMenu menupopup {max-width:15em;}
    That works in my test, but you can tweak that maximum width to suit your needs. (1 "em" is about 16 pixels). Stylish can be installed from here: [https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/stylish/ Stylish :: Add-ons for Firefox].
    (3) You could create a custom style rule in the file userChrome.css, which you can add to your personal Firefox profile. I didn't test it.

  • How to adjust volume on Audio Timelines

    A couple questions about volume adjustment on the various Audio Timelines on Premiere Pro CS 5.
    1) How to adjust volume level of an mp3 on the Audio 2 timeline?
    2) How to adjust or mute volume of an 'individual' video clip on the Video 1 and Audio 1 timeline? (I have many clips on the timeline and know how to mute them all, but in this case, I'm looking to only mute certain clips in the timeline.)

    Along with the material covered in the Help File, that Ann linked to, see this ARTICLE. It goes into a little more detail on the differences between Clip Keyframes and Track Keyframes (generated with Audio Mixer). While the effect of those can be the same, there are nuances, that one should make note of.
    Good luck,

  • How to decrease SGA size in oracle 9i

    hi,
    how to decrease SGA size .. now SGA size=400m i want to drecrease to 150m
    Thanks,
    Mohammed

    Why do you want to do this? Is your system low on memory?
    Perhaps your DB is on a laptop with
    only a small amount of memory?
    Well an enterprise database server set of
    thread inside a complex service would need
    a high powered laptop with large amounts
    of memory.
    Or perhaps your UAT server has 10 databases
    on it all competing for resource?The culprit may not be Oracle.
    For example (as you have not told us your operating system, windows linux unix?) IBM's AIX unix operating system comes configured optimally for managing file caching in the OS memory; as Oracle also caches the blocks read from disk sometimes the file system caching is redundant and ends up using memory better allocated to Oracle. In that case you tune the Unix kernel to reduce memory allocated to the file system caching. The default settings allow IBM AIX to take up to 80% of system memory for caching bad if you have allocated 40% to the SGA already.........
    The really cool thing about AIX is you can do this on the fly and you don't need to reboot so when you go live you juggle until you get an optimal setting and then monitor.
    In the end you may just have to add memory.
