I have the sound effects icon in the middle of my screen, how do I remove it?

I have the sound effects icon in the middle of my screen and I want it to go away! How do I get rid of  it?

Try giving your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys, past when you see the red power down slider and until you see the silver apple. Let it reboot and see if that fixes it.

    Nope!  I did as you suggested, Went to finder, then to desktop opened it and there is absolutely nothing showing! I THINK about a hundred years ago I put that widget on plus a little message to my wife underneath it. I cannot seem to access either of them. Thanks for your thoughts though. Mike T

  • I have a horizontal line across the bottom of my screen how do I remove it?

    Re: Macbook Air mid 2011, I have a horizontal line across the bottom of my screen, it appeared when I was updating my iPhone, How can I remove this line from my display?

    It may be a GPU or display issue. In both cases, make a backup of your Mac and take it to an Apple Store or reseller to get it repaired.
    To check whether it is a GPU or display issue, try taking a screenshot by pressing Command, Shift and 3 keys. The screenshot will appear in the Desktop, so open it and check if the line appears in the screenshot too. If so, it is a GPU issue; if not, it is a display issue.

  • The sound effects icon is staying on the screen. How do I get this to go away

    The sound effects icon is staying on my ipad. How do I get this to go away?
    Thanks for the help.
    Have A blessed and Wonderful Day!!!!!!!

    If the sound icon is stuck on the screen, then the pad thinks you are pressing the volume rocker on the side of the pad.   Do you have a case or something that might be touching that rocker?  
    Some have reported that they have put a small dent in the pad body that presses the switch.  If so, you need to somehow indent it.
    Try a reboot.  Press and hold both the home and sleep button until the apple logo appears.  Ignore the red slider.

  • Tried reset, taking off case, no Bluetooth but sound effects keeps appearing in middle of screen. If I turn down volume it goes away but then comes back. Sometimes immediately. Sometimes in 5 minutes. Am not touching anything on side of iPad at the time

    Cannot get sound effects icon to stop coming on.   When I turn down the volume, the icon goes off briefly and then it comes back on at full volume and stays in the middle of the screen, until I click the volume down again.  Doesn't help to reset, the case is not on and it still does this. Most annoying.

    Tried any basic troubleshooting steps?
    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 - let go of the buttons.
    You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.

  • Tilting, Volume Buttons and Sound Effects icon problem.

    Every time I tilt my iPad while using it on a flat surface the volume button is contacted and the Sound Effects icon appears.  This is a very poor design in my opinion.  It drives me crazy!!  Any workarounds?

        knothead997cdp - I know that with the iPhone, they say there is an app for everything, but causing you headaches isn't one of them! Judging from the multiple issues you are describing, the master reset is definitely the best course of action to take. You may always stop by at your closest Apple Store for a second opinion. In all honesty, it just sounds like the update went corrupt somewhere. Starting clean should take care of it!
    Let us know how it goes. If you have any additional questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to us!
    Thank you knothead997cdp, take care!

  • Sound effects icon

    when I turn on my iPad the sound effects icon appears.  It didn't use to.  What can I do to remedy this?

    Have you tried restarting your iPad, hold both the Home and Power buttons down until the apple logo appears and restarts your iPad?

  • Sound effects icon will not go away

    Sound effect icon will not go away. It is in the middle of the screen. Tried changing the sound setting no luck.

    I also am having issues with the "sound effects icon" on my iPad.  I took it to an Apple store and was told there was a dent in the side by the sound button.  Is this a common problem?  Haven't dropped the iPad so don't know what has caused this.  Apple said $269 to repair.  Got the iPad at Christmas as a gift.
