IPad is not making any sounds except for itunes, Pandora and Netflix. Need help.

From one day to another the iPad is not making any sounds (lock, keyboard, games) except for music on iTunes, Pandora and video on Netflix. All sounds are activated on the iPad's general settings. I have synced it and updated the OS to no avail. Any help or suggestions is gratly appreciated.

If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds 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.

  • IPad is not making any sound

    iPad is not making any sound when typing, watching video from YouTube and video from cameroll. I don't even hear when I receive notification. My mom and dad has the same problem on their iPhone 4s. My mom when to apple store to replace for a new phone but do I have to go to the apple store to replace it too? I also tried a restore but it did not work. Please answer!
    Thank you

    DISCONNECT BLUETOOTH.
    After doing all the ridiculous resetting and changing/checking the settings by the advice given on these forums and on YouTube, I finally discovered that if you have your apple device connected to any other device by bluetooth you will not get any audio but by the device it's connected to. How un-awesome is that? Ive always been used to how my android devices work with Bluetooth which is when the system you're connected to is off or in a different mode, you still have audio. That makes perfect sense and is convenient, right? But I thought my brand new ipad was busted when I connected to my entertainment system by Bluetooth and haven't been getting any audio the last few weeks. So basically I need to go into settings every stinking time if I want to hear my game or show my wife a YouTube video. Regretting ever got this overpriced tablet...

  • My iPhone 4s is not making any noise except for when someone calls me, an alarm going off, or unlocking it.

    I have no sound except for my ringtone, alarm, and sometimes the unlocking noise. No text alerts, email alerts, media noise, Pandora noise, iTunes noise, anything. First on my own I restored it to factory settings, cleaned the dock and head jack, did the head phone trick in and out, and I have checked for water damage. I have searched the threads and Google for solutions but none have worked. I talked to Apple today and they made me restore it again and it still doesn't work.
    ^Usually theres a volume bar on videos, none here.
    ^Theres no thing to slide the sound back and forth here.
    ^Also no sound bar here.

    Also I should mention that Apple said it is a hardware issue, but a software issue.

    Check the Mute switch, which is on the left side of the phone above the volume buttons.

    IPAD 3GS iOS 8.1.2 updated recently but sound muted please solve my problem

    What do you have Settings > General > Use Side Switch Set To ? If 'rotation lock' then you mute/unmute sounds via the Control Centre (swipe up from the bottom edge of the screen), not the switch on the side of the iPad.
    If that is not 'on' then try inserting and removing headphones and see if that gets sounds to work, and if not then try a soft reset (i.e. a reboot) and see if that makes any difference : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear

  • My iPad will not make any sound whatsoever. I reset it to factory settings and still no sound. Help

    My iPad will not make any sound whatsoever. I reset it to factory settings and still no sound. Help

    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

  • ITunes download said I needed to uninstall first. Followed instructions on how to uninstall. Everything worked except for iTunes itself and it won't uninstall but won't install either. Help!

    I followed the instructions for the uninstall as found on the website, but all of the software except for iTunes uninstalled successfully. Now it won't uninstall and the updated version won't instal either and I have no idea what to do. I'm very frustrated at this point as I've tried everything on the support website.

    Perfect, thanks.
    "The installer has encountered an unexpected error installing this package. This may indicate a problem with this package. The error code is 2330."
    That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
    Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
    Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
    Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

  • Why does my ipad mini not have any sound?

    My ipad mini does not have sound in any of my apps (mostly games). Sound is on in settings, and sound is turned on in each app. It is a first generation mini, not a retina display. Thanks for any suggestions.

    First try a Reset  ( No Data will be Lost )
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least Ten seconds... (But can take Longer)... until the Apple logo appears. Release the Buttons
    If no joy... Try a Restore...
    1: Connect the device to Your computer and open iTunes.
    2: If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane.
    3: If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try using the Steps in this article to force the device into Recovery Mode.

  • IPhone 4 not making any sound.

    I just bought a new iPhone 4. All of a sudden today it has stopped making any noise. Nothing for a call, new text, song from the iPod, nothing!! I've checked all the settings under sounds (I can't even hear the previews from all the sounds). I've even restarted the phone. Any ideas on what's going on? Its brand new and I'm already having issues.

    Is it still connected to the Bluetooth in your car (been there, done that)?
    Put the phone in handsfree speaker mode when on a call and let us know if you hear any sounds then.

  • Push notifications are not making any sounds. (iPhone 4)

    Hello, I am having an issue with sounds from my push-notifications. I have all phone sounds enabled, the volume turned up, and all the sound options for the desired applications set to allow push-notifications, AND to make noise.
    All of my other phone sounds work, calls, SMS, vibrate, alarms, everything else EXCEPT push-notification sounds. I can go in to my AIM settings and even hear the desired sound play in the settings menu, however when I get an AIM message, no sound.
    What gives? All my firmware is up to date.

    You can only get an authorized unlock for your AT&T device through AT&T, so your iPhone was probably jailbroken. See this for more info -> iPhone: About unlocking
    Also, take a look at this Whatsapp FAQ.

  • Can download, and install, but will not load any page except for mozilla.

    When i download and run the install, all seems to go well until firefox loads. The only page that loads is the Mozilla page. When i try to go to any other site, it has a problem loading page error. This would be on a Windows 7 system.

    Hello, chvbob, and thanks for contacting Mozilla Support.
    You may try to disable IPv6.
    To disable IPv6, change the preference network.dns.disableIPv6 from "false" to true . Here are the steps:
    1. Type about:config in the address bar, press Enter.
    2. Find network.dns.disableIPv6 in the list.
    3. Right-click -> Toggle.
    4. Restart your Mozilla application and try again.
    If this doesn't work, you can re-enable IPv6 by resetting the preference to "false" (double-click to toggle).
    [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/firefox-cant-load-websites-other-browsers-can Here]'s an interesting article about another problems, including IPv6, that may help you if the first advice didn't work.
    Please, make sure you check everything in the article and contact us again if none of the solutions worked.
    This is FJM8 from Mozilla Support, thank you for contacting us and have a nice day!
