Ipad mini sound problem
Hello, my ipad mini that I bought a month ago was working fine when I first bought it. but now theres a problem with the sound. The thing is, at first i realised the game Sims sound was muted, although the volume is on, and then i figured the sound of messages, keyboard and mails etc was not working... i can listen to music and youtube works fine, today i realized that also at facebook app video sounds are muted. I beleive this is a operating system malfunction, what can i do to correct the problem... i am not sure but the problem may have started after the new ios update...
hi JimHdk,
I solved the problem with a reply from another tread.
from settings i choosed to use the side swithch for to lock/unlock rotation of the screen.
and when i was doing that the swith was in mute mode. so i keeps it muted and i didnt know that this was the problem. Now i set it back to sound setting mode and unmute the switch. everything works fine.
I guess apple should put another switch to control this under settings/general/side switch.
otherwise its so hard and confusing to figure that out while some apps have sound and some does not.

The sound in my iPad mini has gone noisy after I updated to iOS 7.0.2. Is there n issue to solve this? Anyone else facing the same problem?
There is NO NEED to reset settings nether restore the iPad.
There are some possibilities for sound problems - most of them are really simple:
http://youtu.be/SDf1LDcE95Q
(1min 36sec)
It covers the basics:
checking side-switch / mute / "Control Center"
volume all up
...and also the worst cases:
closing all apps (for rare cases when a single app might render the sound system instable)
rebooting the iPad
So, don't get desparete: try the things in the video.
There are people who reported having forgotten an audio-bluetooth connection activated with a turned-off sound-system or speakers... or forgot Air-Play turned on... so be sure you disengage bluetooth and/or airplay.
On the 'hardware side', dirty dock connector (30 pin) can make the iPad 'think' it is connected to external audio - if so, cleaning it with a dry toothbrush can fix. Also, moisture in the headphones connector can make the iPad switch to 'headphones' even without headphones connected, making it silent: check if you can hear things with headphones plugged in - if so, try gently inserting and removing headphones a few times and check if you get sound back to iPad's speakers alone. -

IPad mini having problems recharging.
Since the most recent update, I have had problems charging my iPad Mini. Several times, I have plugged it into the wall charger. The green charging icon comes on and the lightning bolt shows but when I check it several hours later, not only has it NOT charged but it has also DRAINED most of the charge it still had. Is anyone else having this type of problem?

I bought a new apple ipad mini a week back and i found sound is muted in some applications where as songs, videos and youtube are working fine. please help me out.
In Settings > General > Sounds, are all categories turned on?
Do you have the sound volume bar at a high enough level?
Are you sure Mute is not turned on, double click the home button, swipe to the right, check the speaker symbol at the left side. -
I upgraded my Ipad mini as recomended to 7.0.3. The sound is terribly distorted in all video playback and music. Thanks for helping

For the past two days I have had an issue using google (search bar) on wifi both on the iphone and on the ipad mini (both running ios 7). If on the iphone I use the regular 3g data network I have no problems, google loads up fast and any search I do goes as well. If I use my macbook pro connected to the ethernet cable to my home network, I have no problem either. I can't just seem to be able to access google through my home wife on iphone and Ipad. tried to empty the cache, deleted cookies. If I reset the devices it works for a few minutes and then the problem is back again.
Any suggestion?Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
You will have to re enter the Wi-Fi password.
If that doesn't help, try here > iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections -
I've changed my wifi password, but my ipad mini still remember the old one. Therefore, I cannot connect to wifi, but my mac book is okay with it. I tried to reset the internet settings, but my ipad mini doesn't allow me to verify my password!
The wifi password is usually printed on the router's label.
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

hello i have a ipad mini and recently i have been having some problems with it for around one week, i normally leave it charging through the night and when i wake up my ipad says that my battery is at 100% when i take it of the charger it says 99%. so i restart it and the ipad says that the battery is back to 100% (this happens every single morrning)
now this morrning i woke up and my battery was 100% so i took it of the charger and said it was on 99% i went to have a shower and when i came back the ipad was displaying that i had 88% so i restarted it and it said that i had 88% not 100% even though it had no use while i was in the shower.
so how can a battery drop that much in 30 mins
PLEASE HELP ME!!You probably need to recalibrate the battery. See link below.
Try this first - 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.)
The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W (5W on Mini) USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.

At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.htmlhttp://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

Ipad mini charger problems.
Got iPad mini from Orange and on the first charge the unit only charged to 88%. The charger has no charred marks but I could smell a sooty smell. Orange replaced the whole unit and charger. After a few charges the same thing happened again, charged the iPad to 88% the charger is dead. Anyone had the same problem or offer any advise?
This is the answer to your question I have an iPad mini which has a charger the charger broke after 3 months of use. The smaller chargers have been made to be more efficanct but in the long term don't last as long. I have one now , this is my 3rd charger. This one is starting to break I've had it for a week. To fix your charger you can twist the top of the charger until it starts to charge. If this does not work, I would recommend going to the apple store. Sometimes they give you a new charger, if it has no cut in half and is looking okay, hope this helped

Retina iPad mini battery problems
I have a 64GB Wifi/4G retina ipad mini. Mobile data is turned off.
I have also turned off all push and background refresh.
ATM my battery is on 50% with 2 hours 25 min usage. That time is made up of Netflix, Facebook, email and safari. I have had most iPads and never felt the battery had a problem.
My partner has the air, which has stats 3x better than mine.
Any idea what might be the matter? Faulty iPad? Bad backup?Yeah, my brightness is always ~50.
I think the reporting is faulty. Last night I charged to 100%. I wanted a 23 minute episode on Netflix and the usage report said 16 minutes standy and 16 minutes usage?!?!?
So I then watched another episode which then had the usage recorded ok.
I ran it up to 2 hours 20 usage and had 75% battery left. Then I put netflix on and left it running episodes for a few hours, battery was 61% and usage was 2 hours 28!
I have known usage to go up when not in use but never the reverse and I have no idea what might be wrong?
