HT4085 I have done it all and still can't get any sound

I have lost all sound on my iPad how do I get it back.

If you truly lost all sound on the iPad - including the Music App (did you actually check the Music App?) - then reboot the iPad and see of the sound comes back.
Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
If you do check the Music App and find out that you do have sound in there - then system sounds have probably been muted. In spite of the fact that you were on the "Understanding the Side Switch" support site, I will explain it my own way here.
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.

  • Hey i have a ipod touch and i can t get any sound out of my head phones. The lil bit i can get is scratchy and very very low??

    I have a ipod touch and i can only get a very lil bit of sound and its scrachy souding out of my head phones... sounds good if you dont use head phones??? Can anybody help??

    Your MacBook Pro doesn't have HDMI output... it's DVI. For sound, you will need to use the headphone out/optical digital audio out port to the TV/stereo. As far as video goes, I'm confused as to what cable you're using but at one point you're converting DVI to HDMI.

  • I have changed my password and still can't get homesharing to work. Get the message "Homesharing could not be activated because the account or password was incorrect. It's what I have used to sign in here!

    I  have changed my password and still can't get home sharing to work. Get the message "Home sharing could not be activated because the account or password was incorrect." It's what I have used to sign in here! Any help much appreciated.

    So I reset my Apple ID password. Which then stopped my MobileMe account from working. Hang on - these were 2 different accounts a while ago, with different passwords!!!
    So I have logged back in to MobileMe with my AppleID, and that's working again. After a short wait I can now create Home Sharing again.
    Folks, I think we have just had our Apple IDs merged with our MobileMe accounts!! With no consultation or warning.
    My guess is that this is the most seamless way for Apple to do it, as the vast majority of people use only one email address and one password for everything. Only those of us who had the same email adress but different a different passwords for MobileMe and Apple ID will have noticed. Annoying for us few, but a clever strategy on Apple's part, becasue we have been driven to fix the issue ourselves by chaning the password, and in doing so we have realised that our mobileme account is now the same thing as our Apple ID.

  • My phone thinks the headphones are plugged in and I can't get any sounds.  How to fix?

    My iphone 5 thinks that the headphones are plugged in and they are not.  I used them earlier today but they are no longer plugged in to the phone. I can't get any sound (text alerts, ringing, etc) on the phone outside headphones.  Any ideas on how to fix?

    I have resolved my own problem thanks to reviewing other discussions. The solution that worked for me and that was suggested by an Apple store associate some time ago was to plug and unplug my headphone jack into the iPad four times. On the fourth time leave the headphone jack connected and rotate the plug clockwise, then remove and try your sound. When you use the external volume control the HEADPHONE label should be gone. It appears I have to do this now every time after I've used my headphone jack.

  • I have an iPhone 4 and I can't get the sound on any of the apps.  My cell is ringing fine, it's just the apps.  Can anyone help me?

    I have an iPhone 4 and the phone rings just fine, but I cannot get any audio from any of the apps.  I tried most everything I know.  Please help.

    Hello, Cdaefda. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    I would recommend making sure the vibrate switch is not engaged.  Some applications will be mute if the phone is set to silent.  If the ringer switch is set to audible alert, try the steps in the second article below.

  • Getting message that :There is no connected Camera. I have rebooted several times and still can't get it back.

    When I go to use Photo Both, Facetime, I get "There is no connected Camera". I have a built in camera but don't know how to fix it. I have tried rebooting in three steps several times. First time it worked, but everytime I log back in, I get the message again and now the reboot does not bring the camera back. Any suggestions on what I'm doing wrong or should do to fix it?

  • I can't get my ipod to sync with new laptop. I have tried to erase and sync, I have authorized new laptop, and still can't get new songs on ipod. Help

    I had to purchase a new laptop, since my old one crased. I downloaded iTunes, and my library came up. I followed the directions given, synced ipod, authorized computer and was given a pop up that stated 25 of my songs could not be transferred.Go to Store, authorize computer and resync. Which I did. When I authorize computer another pop up appears and it states this computer is already authorized. I am getting really frustrated. I have gone to the Apple store several times, had to make appointments as they were to busy to help me then. I show up for appointments to either be told, no appointment appears in their schedule, or they are running over an hour late. Any help would be greatly appreciated!  Thanks

    Why can't the songs be transferred to the device?  Is it because they are not authorized?  Were these 25 tracks purchased/downloaded with the same account you have used to authorize the PC/new iTunes library?
    Have you seen this article yet?

  • HT201412 I have tried all of the above and still can't get my ipad to respond

    I have tried all of the above and still can't get my ipad to respond

    Everything? Did you see the very last part about restoring the iPad and did you notice that there is another link in that step in case you cannot restore the iPad?
    Symptoms
    Your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch may occasionally stop responding to buttons, switches, or touchscreen input and may exhibit one or more of the symptoms listed below.

  • TS4268 Ever since I uploaded i0s7 I haven't been able to receive I messages or face time. I have took it to the apple store and they couldn't figure it out. I have also followed the trouble shooting from I tunes and still can't get it working

    Hi,
    Strikes -
    Go into compositionReady and have 3 variables you will be able to set them like this
    strike1 = 0;
    strike2 = 0;
    strike3 = 0;
    So on the wrong item click have
    if(strike1 == 0) {
    PLAY STRIKE1 ANIMATION
    strike1 = 1;
    else if(strike2 == 0) {
    PLAY STRIKE2 ANIMATION
    strike2 = 1;
    else if(strike3 == 0) {
    PLAY STRIKE2 ANIMATION
    strike3 = 1;
    So this will make it so when the wrong item is clicked each strike will be played in order.
    Random Scrolling -
    You should look into the Math.Random function to make things random in edge.
    This is an example of the Random function. It will generate a random number up to 100.
    var random = Math.floor (Math.random () * 100);
    Lose Screen Score -
    So we can create another variable in compositionReady for the lose score.
    score = 0;
    Now when the user gains a point to add to the score you could do this code on the click
    score++;
    which would add 1 to the score, However you can add however much you like to the score doing "score + 2" and so on.
    To edit a text with the score at the end which I'm assuming you will want to do you will use .html
    so $("Text").html("You score is " + score);
    I hope this helps!
