Ipad mini. no sound. volume control shows headphone icon. no headphone attached

Hi, I am having trouble getting any sound out of my mini, which is on IOS 7. The volume buttons show the headphone icon but there is no headphone attached. What do I need to do to get back to normsal? I cannot see any setting?
I have had my mini for a year with no problems.

Try this  - 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
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.

To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
1. Go to Settings
2. Tap on General
3. Tap on Reset
4. Tap on Reset All Settings

  • HT4085 My volume control indicates headphones not speaker.  No sound from iPad. Have checked the mute button is off and button is set to operate lock rotation.  Any suggestions?

    The iPad sound is not working and the volume control shows headphones rather than speaker.  Mute is off and I cannot see any reference to headphone/speaker settings or switch.  Any suggestions ?

    Most likely something is stuck in the headphone jack. Try to vacuum it out or CAREFULLY use a straightened paperclip to remove any dust or lint. You can also try resetting your iPad by simultaneously pressing and holding the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple Logo. This can take up to 15 seconds so be patient and don't release the buttons until the logo appears. Try again to see if the problem persists.

  • Sound volume control unresponsive after waking from sleep

    Lately, a strange problem has developed on my MacBook 13-inch Aluminum (Late 2008), running Mac OS X 10.6.4:
    After waking the MacBook from sleep, the sound volume control keys on the keyboard does not affect the volume control of:
    * Neither the sound volume output by the built-in speakers,
    * nor the sound volume indicator/slider in the menubar,
    * nor the sound volume indicator/slider in the Sound preference pane in System Preferences,
    Only the sound volume slider/indicator in the Sound preference pane in System Preferences has an effect on the actual volume ouput by the built-in speakers.
    First I thought the problem was affected by disconnecting a set of analog headphones while the MacBook was sleeping -- it seemed that after sleep the volume control keys on the keyboard and menubar item still was set to affect the headphone port and not the built-in speakers.
    However, the problem just occured after sleeping without anything connected to the MacBook. The built-in speakers were muted, when the MacBook lid was closed, and the computer went to sleep - after waking from sleep the built-in speakers were unmuted - and control was only possible through System Preferences.
    Any ideas?

    Not sure if you stumbled on the other threads like this one:

    I've been having the same problem on my Mac Pro for a while, finally decided to see if there were some other people having the problem. I'll see if the others have a solution yet.
    One workaround I've been doing is to go to Preferences -> Sound and select a different output device. For me, I have to flick to Internal Speakers and then back to Line Out.

  • My beats studio 2013 work fine on my ipad but the mic/ volume control doesn't work on my iphone 5

    My beats studio 2013 work fine on my ipad but the mic/ volume control doesn't work on my iphone 5. Can anyone help me?

    Thanks, daniel.early79!
    I have an iPhone5 bought in late Dec 2012.
    I've noticed on rare occassions that the volume down button some times would not respond.
    Starting yesterday, the volume down button would not respond more consistently.
    Sometimes a reset would fix it, sometimes a reset network would fix it, but the problem would come back.
    Came across this thread, and pressing gently on the upper right hand corner fixed it!
    I remember seeing some video on Youtube or iFixit that shows how to replace the power button. It appears that the volume buttons and the power buttons are tied in together on the same piece of connector. I supposed taking the iphone in and out of cases may have warped or twisted the connector inside the case ever so slightly that the sensor for the down volume button got shifted.
    The down volume button works now, after doing the trick you suggested. I'll wait and see if it comes back before taking it in for warranty repair.

  • Satellite P10-804: Cannot alter the sound volume control

    The Sound Volume Control on the front of the unit has set itself to far in the whole and cannot be altered.
    Is this something I can fix ?

    I dont know if you can fix it.
    Do you have enough experience to disassemble the notebook?
    Do you have good experience in soldering?
    The volume controller is fixed on the motherboard its not easy to say what happens maybe there are some loose contacts
    I think its better to contact a notebook technician because he has more experience as a common notebook user like me and you!

  • Gen 5 has lost volume control of headphones and also radio does not recognize headphones are plugged in.

    gen 5 has lost volume control of headphones and also radio does not recognize headphones are plugged in.  Any Ideas on a fix?

    The earphones must be pushed very hard into the iPod. So hard, that the white part of the plug must touch the iPod in order for the external speakers to turn off. You will hear a click.
    If you do a forum search, you will find this same solution. If it does not work, you will need to take your iPod to an apple store or call the Apple iPod tech support if still under warranty or you have Apple Care.

    That's because you are using her Apple ID or sharing an Apple ID on your iPad.
    Do you have your own Apple ID? Do you share an ID? If so, is the ID her Apple ID?

  • HT201412 ipad will not do anything but show apple icon ?

    ipad will not do anything but show apple icon help please ?

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try on another computer
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

    Or go to the store, wait in line, and go 1-800-Geek-Squad. Then hand over the phone to the geek squad guy at the counter when it's your turn, so both departments are confused.
    Don't actually do this.
    However, yes, there could be a number of issues with that, it's kind of hard to diagnose over the boards. If you can't figure it out by the time the store opens, bring it in - or call the phone number for 24/7 support.

  • Satellite A355-S6931 Low Sound - Volume Control wheel just spins

    I've checked and tried everything I can find or know how to do to get enough volume and nothing works.  Everything is set to 100 %.  I use headphones (same ones I used with my 5 yo Toshiba).  Why does that wheel just spin with no change in volume and no stopping point either way?  I have to suspend my Netflix service as I have about 2% sound.  Satellite A355-S6931 - 6 weeks old now.

    It might as well be broken as it affects absolutely NOTHING no matter how far or how long I turn it in either direction.
    I expect this computer to deliver an acceptable degree of sound.  I have some hearing loss and use headphones exclusively which have their own volume control.  My 6 year old Toshiba laptop would blast my eardrums out with volume if I wasn't careful to keep all controls from the max.  Granted, I paid more than double as much for the computer back then and got Win XP-Prof besides.  I wasn't looking for a "cheap" computer but expected comparable quality to my former Toshiba, in spite of being stuck with Vista.  I could do without MANY of the bells and whistles this thing has for some acceptable SOUND.  Seems like a basic provision. 
    Can I get the sound card replaced for something better?
    What about the adapters that sell for about $10 on eBay?
    BTW -- the Toshiba DVD Player won't work at all.  Using Window Media Player shows the DVD but the sound is totally inaudible.  I've had to suspend my Netflix service.
