IPad audio  output is not working properly, except on Siri. Any ideas on what is wrong and how to fix it?

iPad audio output does not work, except for on Siri. The mute button is not on, and the volume buttons have no effect/ don't work (unless Siri is open). I have reset the iPad, tried iOS7 and iOS8 resets, which didn't help. The audio output mostly works when headphones are out in, but has a tendency to cut out from time to time. Without headphones, Audio might start working again briefly from time to time, but most the time it doesn't.  Any ideas on what is wrong with it and how to fix it?
my iPad is a 3rd gen, 16GB wifi only model, if that helps
I did take it to an Apple Store, but the inncorrectly insisted that my speaker was bust and it would cost £250 to replace the whole iPad!

iOS 8 isn't even out yet. If you are running iOS 8, I assume you are a developer and if you are, you are in the wrong forum to try to get help. If you are not a developer and you're running iOS 8, maybe that's why you are having problems on the iPad.

The type that I made bold doesn't make sense. Is this a typo and you mean that " headphones are not in"?

And you know they are incorrect because you get sound here and there from time to time? That fact doesn't prove that something isn't working correctly inside. You could very well have a bad connection inside the device causing this, but somehow you seem to know that's not the case.

  • My iPad messaging feature is not working even though wifi Internet access is strong--what's wrong?

    I've been using messaging on my iPad as I travel internationally to chat with my family who have Apple products back in the U.S. but here in France, although I have strong wifi service, my messages won't send.  The sending bar across the top stops abut 9/10 of the way across then eventually says "Not delivered!" in red.  I also do not receive messages.  I visited the Apple store in Paris and messaging worked just fine on their wifi.  The wifi internet connection where i am staying is strong and messaging appears to be the only feature not working.  What is going on and does anyone know how I can fix it?   Thx.

    Are you sending wifi or 3 g?   I would not be surprised if the local 3 g network was blocking or somehow non compatible.  I would be surprised if this was happening on a wifi network.

  • Auto-Brightness on iPad mini Retina is not working properly.

    Hello! Noticed that the Auto-Brightness on iPad mini Retina is not working properly.
    It works correctly only when such a dark place, then unlock the iPad brightness will be at a minimum. Likewise, if unlock iPad in a room with light, the brightness will adjust to the surrounding space.
    If I turn light into a dark room, the brightness slider does not move, and stands on the site. Checked on the iPhone 5S, there problems are not present. Auto Brightness is working correctly.
    P.S. Sorry for my bad english!

    Right click your volume icon in the notification area and select "volume control options". From there, you should be able to select the external speakers.
    I hope that helps!

    Thanks for that information!
    I'm sure I will be calling AppleCare, but the problem is, they charge for the phone calls don't they? Because I don't have money to be spending to be on the phone with a support service.
    In other things, it seemed like the only time my MacBook was working was when I had Snow Leopard without the 10.6.8 update download that was supposed to be done to prepare for OS X Lion.
    When I look at the information of my HD it says that I have 10.6.8 but that was the install that it claimed to have failed and caused me to restart resulting in all of the repeated problems.
    Also, because my computer is currently down, and I've lost all files how would that effect the use of my iPhone? Because if it doesn't get fixed by the time OS 5 is released, how would I be able to upgrade?!

  • RH 5.5 output does not work properly in RH 7

    I inherited a WebHelp project created in RH 5.5. I have RH 7.
    When I open the files, make modifications, and recompile them, the
    output does not work properly once I put it on our hardware box.
    Those infamous red squares are present and there seems to be a lot
    of .js files being called, but even when I do a straight 1:1 copy
    and include all the files, and delete the red squares, it still
    doesn't work right.
    Also, oddly, when I open the original (5.5) files in my v7 --
    even without making ANY changes at all -- the TOC has
    disappeared.

    When you view the upgraded source files in RH7, are the red
    squares seen the editor?
    When you generate to a local folder and view the output
    there, are the red squares present? Are there any other issues with
    the generated output?
    Have you applied all three patches to RH7? Help About should
    show 7.0.3.

  • "Itunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video may not work properly".

    Turned my Dell running windows 7 off 2 days ago. Turned on today.  Launched ITunes and got message "Itunes has detected a problem with your audio configuration. Audio/Video may not work properly".
    All my albums are there but won't play.

    Any ideas ??

    Hey MrCurwen,
    I was able to find an article that included the same error message you're experiencing:
    iTunes for Windows: iTunes cannot run because it detects an issue with QuickTime
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1371
    According to that article, if you see the error message "iTunes cannot run because it has detected a problem with your audio configuration," QuickTime may need to be reinstalled. Please follow the steps below to uninstall QuickTime and then download and install QuickTime using the QuickTime standalone Installer.
    On the Start menu, click Control Panel.
    Follow the steps appropriate for your Windows operating system below.
    Windows Vista and Windows 7: Click Uninstall a program (or if using Windows Vista's Classic View of the Control Panel, click Programs and Features) and select QuickTime in the list of currently installed programs.
    Click the Remove button (or Uninstall for Windows Vista and Windows 7) and follow the prompts to remove QuickTime from your computer.
    Download QuickTime. Note: There are two options for downloading QuickTime, be sure to select the option that does not include iTunes.
    During the download:
    If you choose to run the installer, proceed to the next step.
    If you choose to save the download, double click the QuickTimeInstaller file, then proceed to next step.
    Follow the on-screen instructions to install QuickTime.
    Reopen iTunes.
    Cheers,
    David

  • My 10.8.3 update did not install properly citing an 'Unknown Error'. Now, my Mail and Mac App Store aren't working. What went wrong and how do i fix it ?

    My 10.8.3 update did not install properly citing an 'Unknown Error'. Now, my Mail and Mac App Store aren't working. What went wrong and how do i fix it ?

    I tried this and still have the same problems. If I open Address book or the Mac App Store I get the library rebuild popup and a hang. I created a fresh user and then things are better apart from the printing issue. Its clearly some 3rd party software issue but the crash logs are meningless to me. I used the excellent Etre check app from http://www.etresoft.com/etrecheck so I have a list of what is being loaded and can compare clean and crashed user info but as I cant work out which of the startup items, launch agents, launch daemons etc that  are causing the problem.
    I have eliminated Dropbox, Mac Keeper and Witness, and it isnt related to my exterrnal LED cinema dispay or my external thunderbolt drives, or any USB devices if thats any help to anyone else. Info from Etrecheck follows -

  • Headphones not working on new 4s. Any ideas?

    Headphones not working on new 4s. Any ideas?

    When in system preferences/sound/output do you see the headphones there? If so select them.
    Try plugging the headphones in and out several times (there is a micro switch that can get stuck)
    Try toggling the volume keys while plugging them in.
    Try restarting with them plugged
    Trya pram reset: with nothing connected
    Power off, power back on holding the following keys:
    OPTION  COMMAND  P  R
    continue to hold till you hear the start chime 2 times then release, rebbot.
    If still no joy take it back to the Apple store, you have 14 days from the date of purchase to swap for another machine, or a refund, or have them fix it. Take full advantage of your warranty.

    Have used large format, but using the 'burn' software, I am not getting seamless video quality on DVD even though I am burning at 2* speed. Any ideas? Do I need better software? Or is there a problem with the SuperDrive?
