HT201401 After updating no sound when receiving a text.  All sound choices just vibrate.

After updating iphone no sound when receiving texts.  All choices only vibrate.  Also no volume bar for music.

Hello LEC2,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
I would first check to make sure that your sound options for your alert tones is set correctly.  Please look at the following link for more information:

If that doesn't resolve the issue, also take a look at this link:

  • No or low sound when receiving a text. Volume is fine for incoming phone calls.

    After the latest software update, I can not hear any sound when receiving a text. However I can hear sound when I receive a call.

  • I am suddenly not getting a text tone when receiving a text - all other sounds work fine

    I am suddenly not getting a text tone when receiving a text.  All other sounds work and text tone is checked in settings.

    I finally discovered that the problem is with a single text tone and all the rest work fine.  The text tone not working is one I purchased from iTunes about 2 weeks ago and it worked fine up until 2 days ago.  When the text tone is still there and it plays when I manually select it, but there is no sound when I get a text.  Anyone have any ideas on what the problem is or how to fix it?

  • No sound when receiving a text

    Since the most recent update my Galaxy S3 does not make any sound upon receiving texts.  I've tried all sorts of sounds and none work.  It will vibrate, but absolutely no sound.  I've restarted, shut down... no help.  I tried downloading new sounds.  Any more ideas?

    I am having this issue ever since the update.  I had my 3 year old's voice sweetly saying message when I got a message and now - nothing!  I never know if I've gotten a message!!!  I can't access the settings  - causes instant crash.  Messaging constantly crashes either way too. 
    Messaging is probably THE most important feature of a phone.  For that to not be working - this is a SERIOUS problem.  I can't believe they forced such a buggy firmware update on the users!!!!

  • My iphone will not vibrate or make a sound when receiving a text message

    for some reason since yesterday, my Iphone will not vibrate or make a sound when I receive a normal or Imessage text message.
    I double checked that vibration works in general and it does. so does the sound file for the Text tone.
    My ringer works fine as well as vibration for incoming calls but nothing works with a normal text message (even whatsapp works fine).
    I have no idea what could be the issue here.
    Any ideas?

    - Unmute your phone
    - Set your Ringtone to default
    - Adjust your volume
    - If you're on iOS6 - DO NOT DISTURB feature turn it OFF
    Try again

  • Can you set the iPhone4 to vibrate without sound when receiving a text?

    I turned on vibrate, but no ring tone and I don't get any notification (other than the text displays on the screen).
    It seems that I have to set a ring tone to get text notifications, but what about just vibrating without sound?

    I had the same problem. It appears it is a software issue and we will have to wait for an update. In the mean time, someone on here suggested that you turn the phone off and back on again whenever this happens and it will fix it for a while. Has worked for me so far.

  • Why doesn't my iphone 5 make a sound when receiving a text?

    Everything is enabled.  Nothing is muted.  Phone rings fine, but texts come as a vibrate only no sound. 
    I have done a hard reset also. 

    Settings, notification center , review the option here and make sure they are correct

  • TS2755 No sound when receiving txts...

    I have noticed after the last two updates I have no sound when receiving my txt messages.
    Not sure if I have done something wrong...
    Thankful for any help...

    No, you can't get rid of the sending sound.
    If you have your text tone set to "none", you will receive no audible notification and no vibration. The work around would be to install a custom ringtone that is just silence and set the text to that. You wouldn't here anything but you'd still feel the vibration if you've turned that setting on.

  • Is it possible to restore to ios5 after updating to ios6 when my phone returned to locked state to unlocked state. Pla help...

    Is it possible to restore to ios5 after updating to ios6 when my phone returned to locked state to unlocked state. Plshelp...

    Sounds like your iPhone was hacked/modified/jailbroken to work
    with wireless carrier other than the one it was purchased from. The
    update has relocked it to the original carrier. Contact the original
    carrier to see if they offer unlocking and if you qualify - only the
    carrier to which the iPhone is locked can unlock it.
    What does it say when you look at Settings=>General=>Carrier?
    Be advised that the previous modifications to change from original carrier
    to your current Carrier may have rendered the software unable to be
    officially unlocked and may prevent future updates.
    Reverting to a previous version of iOS is not supported. Even it it was,
    such reversion would not solve your problem because the iPhone has become
    relocked to the original wireless provider and that status will not change
    no matter what iOS version is installed.

  • IPhone making strange sound when receive all types of message.

    I've bought my iPhone 4S last week and it started making a really strange sound when receiving all sorts of messages (e-mail, whatsapp, sms). The sound is the sound I selected for each one but it loops 4 or 5 times everytime! What can it be?

    If no change after powering your iPhone off and on, try an iPhone reset, which is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release - ignoring the slide to turn off prompt when doing so. An iPhone reset does not affect any data or settings.

  • I have an IPad 4.  After updating the system, when I try to look at picture on Facebook and make it larger, there is just a "circle" in the middle of the page instead of the picture.  Can anyone help me?

    Close all open apps by double-tapping the home button, then swiping up and off the screen with the app window (not the smaller icon).
    Reset your device: hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until the screen goes black and you see the Apple, then let go. (No data loss)

  • Microsoft Office 2011 no longer opens because "there is a problem" after updating mountain lion when the app store said there was an update available this morning. Reinstalling did not work. What's the problem?

    Microsoft Office 2011 no longer opens because "there is a problem" after updating mountain lion when the app store said there was an update available this morning. Reinstalling did not work. What's the problem?

    Has your problem been solved by the updates??
    Have a similar problem. This MacBook opened all MS Office programs in Dec2012 but no longer does in Feb2013. Went to Microsoft/mac/downloads but none of the three updates would run citing a problem "version of software needed to run this update was not found on this volume".
    MacBook: 7.1, Intel Core 2 Duo, 2.4 GHz
    Microsoft Office 2011:  version 14.2.3
    Mountain Lion: 10.8.2 (12C60)

  • No alert sound when receiving email

    This sounds like a well-known problem which has been discussed over in the Mail discussions for quite a long time.
