Ipad 3 Sound won't work in games

How do I get the sound to work for games?

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 it's the icon far left; 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

    THe sound won't work for games unless I plug In headphones. The setting shows like the sound is on.

    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.

  • Game sound won't work on ipad mini and iphone 5

    Game sound on my iphone 5 and Ipad mini won't work.
    I can fix the problem on my ipad mini buy going to:  Setting > General > Lock Rotation (turning on lock rotation which turns off mute).  But this unfortunately also locks my orientation into landscape.  Surely there is a way to enable sound for games and yet not rotation. 
    And on my iphone I have no idea how to fix it.  There isn't the option to unmute anything in settings that I can see. 
    Btw, I'm running the latest ios in both my ipad and iphone  (which is ios 7.0.4).
    Does anyone have an idea how to remedy this situation in both my devices?  Thank you in advance!

  • My sound won't work on my ipad even though the sound is up and the button on the side is on volume? Any ideas ipad 2

    My sound won't work on my ipad even though the sound is up and the button at the side is on volume? Any ideas. For ipad 2

    They will replace it with a refurb of like kind if the problem is deemed to be hardware related and not caused by misue. They will probably try restoring the device and troubleshoot it on their own before they replace it for you .... And I'm talking about an Apple Store here.
    You should probably try this next.
    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.

  • My iPad 3 iOS 8.3 suddenly stopped playing sound on its speakers while on Spotify. Volume max. Side switch not on mute. Tried rebooting thrice. Sounds won't work on other apps. Works with earpods.

    My iPad 3 iOS 8.3 suddenly stopped playing sound on its speakers while I was listening on Spotify. Volume was maxxed out. Side switch not on mute. Tried rebooting thrice. Sounds won't work on other apps (Soundcloud, NPR, Clash of Clans). There are sounds when I attached my earpods. I tried the switch to mono solution on the other threads, didn't help either.
    My iPad is generally muted because of classes, but when I un-mute it it works fine. It just stopped after one song, and now I can't get it to work. Any thoughts? Thanks.

    Hi!
    I've the same issue after updating to iOS 8.3. on iPad 3.
    sound is working properly only with headphones attached.
    when I tap on AirPlay button it says "Docking connector" while it should "iPad"
    when i play with sound settings and try to change e.g. some alert sounds, sound is played and volume slider in control center magically appears.
    any other app can't play sound.
    is there any fix for that?
    Thanks

  • My sound won't work on my ipod 5. I plugged the speakers in and it works fine.  When the headphones aren't plugged in and I turn the volume up it says that they are plugged in.  Please help !

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. (this was already sugested) 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
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R".
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: 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 iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    If not under warranty Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

    A third-party place like the following will replace the jack for less. Google for more.

  • My Mac's sound won't work-the buttons do though

    When I play videos(i haven't checked youtube yet) my sound was out if i paused the video and restarted. Now my sound won't work at all or even for my Facebook games. I had this problem before with just youtube and i was able to fix that, but now i can't fix this. Help?

    Hey saxon198
    If it is just the one user account, then the next step would be to migrate the data that you have to a new user. The best method is to copy your Home Folder to an external hard drive. The next step after that is complete is to delete the user that is causing the issue. Then all you have to do is to copy your data back over. Just copy the contents of the documents folder into the new documents folder instead of replacing it. Now things that probably will not make the move unless you have iCloud or another syncing service is Contacts, Calendars and Notes. You can export those if needed. If it seems confusing or to daunting, then the next step would be to contact Apple Support for further help. I have provided a link to do so with multiple different options for you.

    When you get to the license recovery kit, type sudo, leave a space and drag LicenseRecover.py into

  • My ipad sound doesn't work?

    My ipad sound does not work, only when I put head phones in or using FaceTime.. Event if I use my head phone the sound is in and out. It's not locked on silent or anything. It's just not working, not my apps, music or videos. My ipad will just be completely silent. Then a weeks later the sound will decide to work then stop working later on or when I charge it

    (A) 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
    (B) Swipe upwards from bottom of screen to launch Control Center. Make sure sound is not muted (tap the little bell)

  • My iPad sound just stopped working

    My iPad sound just stopped working. How can I fix that?

    Have you tried restarting your iPad?  Press and Hold the Power Button and Home Button for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple Logo on the screen, and then when you see that, you can release both buttons and wait for the iPad to finish booting up.  Once it comes back up try your sound again

  • My macbook's sound won't work - no output devices found in settings?

    I've been having a lot of issues with my Macbook.  It has a 2.4 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor and is running on version 10.6.8 Mac OS X.  It asks for certification whenever surfing the web or loading websites, and always redirects to a different page.  Now, the sound won't work at all - regardless of mute on/ off or sound turning up and down. I went to settings to check out the problem, and there is no output or input device listed or found on that page.  I have no idea what's going on, and now, even though it's plugged in it won't charge.

    First thing I would try for your sound output issue would be to reset the parameter RAM.
    Best of luck.

  • HP 6120n Sound won't work bought replacement sound card not sure of what to do

    HP 6120n  - Using win 7  - Sound won't work
    Tried restarting and Troubleshooter and it not not solve the problem
    Bought used replacement sound card (30 day warranty) but not sure of what to do to install it or even if it is necessary

    Hello @4u2bu,
    I understand that the audio is not working on your HP Pavilion a6120n Desktop PC running Windows 7 and you are wondering it you should install the new audio card you purchased. I would recommend that you first try the steps set out in the HP Support document: No Sound from the Speakers or Headphones (Windows 7), which has been designed to address audio issues with computers running Windows 7.
    Now if the above document does not work I would suspect a driver issue and since HP does not have audio drivers for your computer running Windows 7 I would suggest you go ahead and install the new audio card as it will have the needed drivers.
    I hope I have answered your question to your satisfaction. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
    Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!
