I updated my ipad and the sound stopped working.

I updated my ipad to IOS 8.1.and the sound stopped working. My sidebar buttons say soundeffects or soundeffects mute when I press them. On my control panel there is no sound bar. As you can see in this screenshot it is not showing a sound bar to adjust volume. HELP?!

Update: Last night, I cleaned my headphone port & docking port. Reset Network Settings & General Reset all settings & reset ipad. Didn't work immediately & had some setbacks. I decided to wait to do the restore factory default for the next day, this morning. I decided to test the sound before proceeding. My sound is working correctly now & didn't need to resort to the restore factory default. All of the above worked but perhaps needed over night to really dry the rubbing alcohol used to clean the ports.?
sound is working. Thanks so much for your help Diavonex!

  • Yogurt spilled on my macbook air and now sounds stopped working. Pls help

    Hi!
    So mac and yogurt were inside my bag and the yogurt's lid accidentally opened getting into my mac's charger, usb and headphones port. I tried turning it on and everything seemed fine, sounds and the heaphone port were both working but the usb port wasn't so i just wiped away the yogurt. After wiping everything I could see off, i tried connecting my mac to the power and it's working. Usb port not working tho and the sound stopped working, tried connecting a headset and still not working. Those seem to be the only problems. Right now my mac's open and standing to it's side near the heater to dry. What should I do? :(

    Yes, everyone tries the "dry it out" method, doesnt work,... when it does 'work' it works for a while until corrosion sets in.   Make a service call.
    Liquid spills, why your MacBook chassis is a one-way valve for spills
    After a substantial spill many people will turn their notebook upside down and shake it, not only does this not work, but it spreads liquid havoc throughout your machine and makes things often as bad as possible.
    The keyboard itself acts like a one way valve in the case of a substantial liquid spill. While liquid pours into the bottom chassis easy, it does not come out easily at all, and in the case of any spill, most of it will not come out by turning it upside down. Disconnect all power and contact Apple for diagnostics and repair.
    Do not attempt to, after a spill, ‘dry out your MacBook’ and test it
    After a spill most people invariably try to “dry out” their notebook by various methods, including hair dryers and otherwise. This both does not work, and after a substantial spill of any magnitude, even if the liquid was water, residue is left behind.
    There are additionally many very tight places inside your notebook where liquids will linger for a very long time, and cause corrosion or worse.
    Immediately unplug your notebook and contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and parts replacement.
    In the case of very minor spills people will “dry out” their notebook and feel success that their notebook is working ok, however invariably in nearly all instances after 4-14 days an error / fault pops up and is usually followed by more.
    In case of a spill, damage estimates are impossible,.....anything can be fixed, without question.......the question is cost.
    contact Apple for in shop diagnostics and cost estimation ....possible parts replacement.  

  • I've spent 6 hours trying to update my iPad, and it doesn't work. It can't get past trying to back up, and just stops and gives an error code. I've deleted the backup, re-synced, and tried again and still no luck. What do I do now?

    I am not running any antivirus software on my Mac, and I have the firewall shut off. Any other ideas? I have not problem downloading all other Apple software updates. I downloaded the latest iTunes software before starting the iPad update process.

  • Hello  My system version 10.5.8  I have installed Safari update - 5.0.6 and the browser stopped working. At openingit shows the following icon:   "Safari has suddenly finished working. Possible problem is in the action of the plugin "TastyAppsAVPlugin".

    Hello
    My system version 10.5.8
    I have installed Safari update - 5.0.6 and the browser stopped working. At openingit shows the following icon:
    "Safari has suddenly finished working. Possible problem is in the action of the plugin "TastyAppsAVPlugin".
    After deleting all plugins from the folder "Internet Plugin", Safari worked again no problem, BUT all sites with flash content (e.g.YouTube) did not work.
    I then tried the following experimental steps:
    a) Moved all plugins from the folder "Internet Plugin" into a temporary folder.
    b) Downloaded and istalled Adobe Flash Player version 10.3.181.34
    c) Started Safari and it did not work ( same message"TastyAppsAVPlugin")
    d) Deleted Adobe Flash Player from the folder "Internet Plugin". Safari worked.
    e) Moved back all plugins, except Adobe Flash Player, from the temporary folder to "Internet Plugin" folder. Safari works... But Flash won't work!!! Before update to Safari 5.0.6 , ev erything worked perfectly well.
    Guys, please solve the problem

    There are many threads on this.  I typed "Uninstalling TastyApps" in the Google search, and came up with these:
    http://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=Uninstalling+tastyapps&ie=UT F-8&oe=UTF-8
    I do not know which of the many TastyApps haxies you have.  Perhaps it would be better to contact them directly, once you know which of their products you have.

  • Just purchased a new iPad and the sound works on Siri, music, videos, alarms, but on games it will not.  Is this a preference or perhaps a defective unit.

  • I just got my iPad and the iMessage was working and than all of a sudden it stopped and when I tired to log back in, it said I had a bad connection which I didn't. So it won't let me use my iMessage

    Check Settings>General>Date & Time>Set Automatically>On. Make sure that the time zone setting is also set correctly.
    If that didn't solve the problem, restart your iPad and try again. If that fails, reset your iPad and try again.
    Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    Reset 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.

  • The sound stopped working on Mac Book Pro OS X?

    The sound stopped working. Firefox installed updates and since, the sound is disactivated. I went to preference, and the silence box is checked, but it doesn't allow me to uncheck it. The sound peripheric is not recognised it seems. What can I do?

    Hopefully one of these steps should solve the problem.
    1. System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers
        Make sure Mute is not enabled.
    2. Remove the headphone.
        If you see red light in the headphone port, plug the headphone
        in and out of the port 5 or 6 times to flip the microswitch inside.
        Sound output may be stuck in the digital mode.
    3. Reset PRAM.  http://support.apple.com/kb/PH4405
    4. Reset SMC.     http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
        Choose the method for:
        "Resetting SMC on portables with a battery you should not remove on your own".
    5. Applications > Utilities > Audio MIDI Setup
        Audio Devices window
        Side Bar
        Click the Built-in Output.
        Under Mute any of the boxes checked? If so uncheck it.
        Option click the speaker icon, if present and select Internal Speakers.
    6. Launch iTunes and play a song. Adjust the volume there.
    Best.

    After ios 7 update on ipad mini, auto rotation stop working. Anyone facing this issue too?

    for ipad,
    if you go to settings-General
    You can select between using the side switch to lock rotation or mute.  If you select one mute, then the lock rotation icon will show up in the control center.  If you select lock rotation, then the mute will show up.  THe side switch is then used for the other option.

  • I have just had a replacement IPad as the camera stopped working. Now the new iPad won't recognise my aol e mail for face time as well as my apple id. I have tried adding as a second e mail, but it says already in use

    I have just had a replacement iPad as the camera stopped working.
    Now the new iPad won't receive FaceTime calls at my aol.com email.
    If I try to add it as a FaceTime address it just says email address already in use.
    I guess it is still linked to the old iPad in some way
    Any suggestions? The old I pad is wiped and back in the store

    This Apple article should be able to help ya out -> iOS: FaceTime is 'Unable to verify email because it is in use'

    Hold the HOME and SLEEP buttons at the same time until an Apple logo appears. If nothing has happened after holding for 30 seconds charge the phone for 15 minutes with the wall adapter and try again.

    I dropped my iPhone in the water and the touchscreen stopped working. After drying it out for a few days I had the LCD replaced, but the touchscreen is still not working. What do I do?

    Why don't you ask that question of the person who performed the uncertified service?
