IOS 6.1.2 downloaded. lost sound on music app

Can anyone direct me on how to get my sound back? I've rebooted, checked muting toggles, rebooted again. No success. This happened after I downloaded the upgrade. How can I fix or re download or go back to the earlier iOS rev?

You can not revert to an earlier IOS. Besides, your issue is extremely rare.
First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here.

HT4623 I have just finished the upgradation to an iOS 6.1.3 and have lost sound in Music and Videos. I am using an iPhone 4S. My iPhone doesn't produce sound when playing Youtube or local camera videos. However ringtones and notifications sound works fine

I have just finished the upgradation to an iOS 6.1.3 and have lost sound in Music and Videos. I am using an iPhone 4S. My iPhone doesn't produce sound when playing Youtube or local camera videos. However ringtones and notifications sound works fine.It is quite strange as well. Have you encountered this issue before?If yes then what's the solution?

I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

Ever since I have updated my software to iOS 7, I cannot download anything from the AppStore app and I have tried resetting my password and updating ITunes, but nothing works! Please help!

Ever since I have updated my software to iOS 7, I cannot download anything from the AppStore app and I have tried resetting my password and updating ITunes, but nothing works! Also when I try to sink my mini with my iTunes account it says you cannot sync because the sync session failed to start.

It sounds like to me you're trying to sync using the computer.
Try these things and see if it helps before you try your next syncing session. If none of the things below work then you might consider trying to sync using iCloud only.
Try a Restart.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your settings
You can also 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. You won't lose any data, but it takes time to enter all of the settings again.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. Apple recommends this only if you are unable to restart it.
Or if this doesn't work and nobody else on the blog doesn't have a better idea you can contact Apple.
Here is a link to their contacts with most of the information below.

You would have to create the ringtones.
Google will find several way to do this.
You cannot buy ready made ringtones from your computer.

Updated iOS 7.1.1 and lost sound

Hi
I have just downloaded the new ios7.1.1 on my ipad and have lost all sound. Have checked my settings completed a hard reset with the home and off key but still no sound any ideas what could be wrong. I have tried contacting apple but said over year warranty and would need to pay a 1 off incident fee to solve the problem which I didn't have until this update.

The posted "Official" fix does not work after switching apps. If you've lost sound in app and games but not in music or headphones, then try this. Close all current apps, go to settings, control center and turn off "Access Within Apps". Then do a soft reset with the home and sleep button. Your audio/external speakers will now work in apps. Apple broke the audio controller (pause/play/forward/back/volume) in the Control Center with their 7.1.1 update.

Lost sound on unrelated apps

My iPad lost some sound on a few things, email alert, Ted video plays without audio, other apps work fine, keyboard lost sound and audible alert for calendar has stopped. Any suggestion?

Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound. Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and its the icon; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

Lost sound on my apps

I have no sound on my apps . sound works with mail and safari.

Reset iPad
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears
Note: Data will not be affected.

ITunes audiobook downloaded but missing from Music app

I purchased and downloaded an audiobook from iTunes but it does not show up in the Audiobooks section of the Music app.
It shows up on the device when I enter the title in the iOS7 Search bar (so it definitely downloaded).
It will play when I tap on the Search hit (so it downloaded successfully).
When I tap the "back" button while it's playing I get to the "Audobooks" page in the Music app: but the book isn't shown in the list of available titles!
So it's on my device but can only be accessed via Search.
I've force-quit the Music app.
I've hard-rebooted by iPhone 5.
I haven't synched to my Mac in 2 years (not even sure my Mac iTunes is up to date)

The exact same thing happened to me - I downloaded an Audiobook and it entered a black hole. This is ridiculous! I even tried pluggin it into my iMac and transferring purchases to my computer and then syncing it again that way and it did not fix the problem. It seems though that other audiobooks that I did purchase on my Mac and then transferred to my iPhone worked fine, but I'd rather not have to plug it in to my Mac.

Loaded IOS 7 and now notice that in the Music App cannot choose format to display all my albums as a matrix, Loaded IOS 7 and now notice that in the Music App cannot choose format to display all my albums as a matrix

After loading IOS 7 i note that there is no longer a choice of how you want albums displayed in the MUSIC App!
I used to find it useful to display them all as a matrix and then choose by touching the relevant album cover!
This app now lists the albums as a list alphabetically which means I have to scroll thru the list to find the album I want.Can we have this facility back?
I called the support desk and he could not find this feature!

Exactly!
This is all about the experience and accessibility. I don't even mind if the new desing is beautiful or not, but if I find myself, like you, avoiding looking for my music, my experience becomes frustrating. I have about 35 albums of a single artist and I used to love going over them and choose the right thing for me, especially being on the road a lot, and now I have to think twice about even entering his name.
I really hope Apple will take those kind of things into consideration when they issue updates for ios 7, and maybe also give us back the goole search which was embeded into the spotlight search (which is really not that big of a request).
And for your 4s - get the new iphone, it's MUCH better

After iOS 5 update, where is Ping in the Music app?

Hi all. Before the iOS 5 update, when I was listening to a song with my Music app (previously called iPod), when I touched on the display to see the details of the song playing, there were 3 icons: Repeat, Ping and Random.
The Repeat and Random icons are still there after iOS 5 update, but where is the Ping icon? You know, the one with the "thumb-up" that, once you tapped on it, it turned on blue to say that you liked that song. That icon has disappeared.
Do you know where is it? Thank you very much. Bye!

I have Ping turned off in iTunes, thus will not appear on my phone. There is no separate app, Ping gets transferred to your phone if turned on in iTunes on your computer.

I use an iPhone 4s i've encounter a problem with my phone that suddenly lost the sound when i'm playing games n listening to music but if there were an incoming call it is rang perfectly with sound.. Please help me.. I dont know what the problem is.. Thank you

Hi Jefrizalo,
If you haven't already done so, you may want to restart or reset the iPhone:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1430
Restarting your iOS device
1. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
2. After the device has turned off, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Resetting your device
If your device stops responding, you can reset it by pressing and holding both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If the above does not resolve your issue, the next best step will be to restore your iPhone using a computer with iTunes. Please be sure to backup your iPhone first.

IPad3 lost sound for all apps.

My ipad3 sound works with headphone but not speaker
Any more. Tried many ways but still not working. Reset ,restart ...
Need to found out what to do.

- Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
Try the following to rule out a software problem
- Reset the iPad. Nothing will be lost
Reset iPad: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup
- Restore to factory settings/new iPad.
- Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.

Hi i have asked for this help before and it was fixed but cant remember how to do it My ipad has lost sound in certain apps and general typing i remember fixing it through the settings can any one please help it not the mute

Hi I have had this problem before butr cant remember how to fix it . What has happened is certain apps have no sound where as others do I also have no sound when typing.I remember when i last asked for help with this problem it was done through settings. It not on mute Please help me.

You can enable keyboard sounds via Settings > General > Sounds . If they are enabled but you can't hear them then have you checked that you haven't got notifications muted (which will also affect most apps) ?
Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar.

[SOLVED] No sound on music apps with pulseaudio

Hi. I just installed pulseaudio on my arch in order to get a higher volume out of my laptop. My DE is gnome, and totem seems to work perfectly with pulse, but neither banshee nor rhythmbox seem too like it. Banshee gets very unresponsive when trying to play a song, and never even shows the slider moving forward, or make any sound at all. Rhythmbox has a similar issue, but without the unresponsiveness...
I'm not very sure how to debug this issue, To install pulse I followed the instructions from the arch wiki, including the configuration for gstreamer: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Pul … #GStreamer
Cheers!

Debugging would normally start with opening pavucontrol. What probably happened is that pulseaudio did not get control of your sound card, maybe some app plays sound before pulse starts. Or maybe totem itself grabs your sound card.
