HT204291 Why I can' t hear the sound from my games while I am playing?

Why I can't here the sound when I am playing a game?

If you lose 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 task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

  • I bought my Iphone 5 a week ago, now suddenly my sound is gone when i play games, i checked everything and the weird thing is that when i put my headphone in i CAN hear the sound when in games, also he just plays music whitout my headphone. What could it

    Hello so as you can see in my question i have troubles with my sound
    I cant hear annything of my sound in game and i did check everything
    The weird thing is that when i put my headphone in i do hear the sound
    Also my music plays without my headphone
    Wat can it be ? Pls help !

    Ok, a little clarification then, you can hear music fine with the speaker and headphone?  You can hear a game's music fine with the headphone but not with the speaker?  Do you get the notification sounds ok with the speaker?
    If the speaker sound is acceptable with everything except the game then there is a problem with that game and its settings.
    If that is the case, you might want to try deleting the game and then downloading and reinstalling the game to see if that helps the problem.

  • If I watch any type of video the sound from a game comes on and plays and will not stop playing.

    I went into the activity monitor and force quit this 1890

    5
    3.1 MB
    Intel (64 bit) that works until you watch another video.
    I really would like for bert and ernie to stop talking in the background the game was on the Sesame Street Website.

  • Can not hear the sound

    I have final QT H264 1280x720 AAC Stereo 22,050 kHz.
    I can not hear the sound, why?
    Thanks.

    Its very strange, I created this file outside FCP, using video gallery software.
    I placed in FCP and looking at the Wave Audio its a straight line. Means the audio is there with -1000db
    thanks for help, the case is closed.

  • I cannot view clips on the viewer window - as it appears black, However, I can still hear the sounds in the background.

    Hello!
    I cannot view any of the clips (not from event browser nor from timeline) on the viewer window - as it appears black/or blank/ or static ! However, I can still hear the sounds in the background.
    P.S I have chosen the filter: ALL
    Please help me with that I'm getting desperate ! I need to finish a project within one week :(
    A million thanks in advance

    Hi F. Carl
    The clip is intact and it has video and audio.
    I have worked on it before and all was fine until I lost the work when it got frozen!
    The issue is:
    I have a (MOV.) ready clip that I wanted to edit a bit, hence I have imported the clip (import media) and whenever I try to work on it, the black screen prohibits me from doing anything.
    Any ideas please ... It's really strange !

  • When i start Firefox ( 5.0.1 ) it loads the home page fine but along with it, it starts playing a video i watched earlier on youtube and it is invisible ( no where in tabs ) and i can just hear the sound. After playing the video one time it stops.

    Sorry you are having problems. First of all try Fifrefox's safemode.
    *[[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]]
    If that works post back for further advice.
    Next step, if safe mode did not work.
    <u>First: Try a clean install, <sub>(you have had a none standard version installed previously)</sub></u><br /> that involves deleting the program files. Then if necessary try troubleshooting by creating and using a clean empty Firefox profile.
    See
    * this recent post [/questions/940399#answer-377134]
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/Standard_diagnostic_-_Firefox#Clean_reinstall
    <u>Second: try a New Profile</u>
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_Manager#Creating_a_new_profile
    * this will be an additional profile, it is still worth backing up any existing or currently working profile on a regular basis
    **[[Back up and restore information in Firefox profiles]]
    * Until you are absolutely confident about the repercussions I suggest
    ** always use an empty folder when creating a new profile
    ** never delete or rename profiles, just disable or remove shortcuts
    ** after creating a new test profile open it and check for any addons or plugins that may be have been included by default

  • I can't hear any sound from the web

    I can't hear any sound from any flash website, or music players on myspace, and youtube.com etc... I think its a flash problem. It worked a few days ago. Is it a problem with my browser? With Flash? A virus?
    I tried the web browser's preferences and system preferences. I got the latest version of flash player. Is there anything else?

    That's great kar3b3ar.

    Hey ErikSimon, I kept troubleshooting my problem last night and when I loaded my samples an alternate way, actually the longer way, it worked. I think I have gremlins in the system or something, but I got it working again. I was having the issue when I tried loading the samples via these instructions that were mentioned in SFLogicninja's Youtube video @ 3:07
    http://www.youtube.com/user/SFLogicNinja#p/u/8/7YjgKLZ2jpY
    They are good instructions, but the Logic gods weren't smiling on me last night. Really weird and frustrating at the same time. Thanks anyways.
