IPad Sound Not Working, Volume High, Ringer On?

Well, this has been going on for a while now but my iPad sound just doesn't work! On YouTube the sound does work however, the ringer doesn't work anymore and out of nowhere even the application sound effects, etc. have stopped working! I'm trying to detect whether this is a hardware or software problem and by the looks of it it's hardware. Is there any other way I can tell?

1. Double-click the Home button and swipe Task Bar to the right
2. Check the volume and mute settings

IPad sound not working

iPad sound not working. Need help

Is it working on any apps e.g. Music and Videos apps but not third-party apps or notification sounds ? If you do get sound in Music and Videos then have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music 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

Magic iPad - sound not working, almost

Hallo - believe it or not. I found a magic iPad (first generation). One day, that iPad did not have sound over the internal speaker, even then knob on the slider disappeared.
Only when the headphone were plugged in, it appeared (the knob) and also the sound via headphone worked as before. So, I was looking thru the discussions here and other sources. I checked the condition of side switch and set it to orientation lock instead of muting. But I took care, that I did not change it when it was in muted position. It did not help.
Okay, no problem. The iPad was restored via iTunes.
Same behavior. Nothing has changed.
But then I was looking at the different apps (it is an iPad of a collegue). I found an app SMULE - it is an app which makes sound when you touch the screen. And, the internal speaker was working ! Hu ? The knob was there ! Hu ? First thought: it has repaired by themselves. I switch to iTunes and want to start a song. The knob disappeared and no sound ! Hu ?
I started SMULE. Sound and knob there. Switch to iTunes. Knob and sound - gone away.
Okay, now it is time to start from the scratch. I reset the iPad, so it looks like out-of-the box. That should work, isn't it ?
Wrong ! No knob on the slider, no sound. Plug-in the earphones. It works.
So, restored the apps again. SMULE is the only app which may take advantage of the internal sound, as before. As soon that app is active, the knob is there and the sound is brillant as it can be thru the internal speaker. Switch to any other app. The knob and the sound disappeared.
Aja, it is an iPad 5.1, the firmware is 5.1.1(9B206).
Does anyone has an idea except to buy a new one

One of your Apps is crashing the sound driver and thus the iPad loses some sound capability.
Restore the iPad as new in iTunes but do not install any Apps. The sound should work. Add Apps one by one to isolate what is causing the problem.

IPad sound not working. Can't find any way to fix

The sound on my iPad has stopped working all of a sudden. I've tried restarting it, updating it, I've checked the mute/screen rotation settings and everything. Whenever I click the volume buttons on the side the normal "Sound Effects" icon with the bell shows up on the screen however it won't show the volume bar at all. Also when I go into 'Music' the volume bar can't even be touched, it's just grey as though it's inactive. I don't now how to fix this, it was working fine earlier :/

Thankyou :) it didn't work at first but after i reset the settings I mucked around with the mute/screen rotation settings and it started working.
Cheers xx

Iphone 4s, keypad sound not working, volume buttom doesnt show up or down

Hello,
I have bought my iphone 4s, 32gb 2 days back and i found out that the keypad sound does not work. i have gone to the setting, sound and turned on the sound of lock and keypad. However, its not working. also, the colume buttom when i click it up or down it doesnt show the bar, actually its doesnt work it shows only the symbol of sound.
i tried to reset, restore... no results
anyone can help me with that??
Thanks

I spoke with Apple and they suggested doing a restore. I did this and the sound was restored. I started installing my tweaks and programs, each time testing the sound. When I installed "Hands-Free Control" the sound issue came back. This is a tweak to allow you to control Siri without having to hold the home button. When you activate the listening option, the sound on the phone stopped working. When you turn it off, it started working again. I dont know if the rest of you are have this Cydia tweak, but that was the culprit for me.

Ipad A1430 was referred to as the new ipad- sound not working.

Hi
I have had a problem that happened over the weekend, when I used airplay with my ipad.
The sound on my iPad seams to be wirelessly connecting to auxiliary sound systems is fine but the iPad refuses to acknowledge my iPad speaker.
-the scroll bar for adjusting volume and turning on wifi b/tooth screen brightness there is a choice of which "air" products you want to sync sound with hand comparing to another iPad there should be an option for not choosing a wireless connection. It the attached iPad speaker.
I have restarted it apple button and lock. Also reset network settings and turned everything off for a 10minute cool down and restarted again.
Thanks any help would be grand

Verify that your iPad has Retina Display.
If your iPad has the 30 pin dock connection, you may refer to it as iPad 3rd Generation.
If your iPad has the lightning dock connection, you may refer to it as iPad 4th Generation.

After upgrade to ios8.3 sound not working

After upgrade to 8.3 on my iPad, Sound not working at all, no matter which application i open there is no sound.

If you don't have sound in the music app or the videos app, try a reset. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10 seconds until the Apple logo appears on the screen.
Having suggested that, I assume that you did check to see if the volume is turned up on your iPad.....

The sound in my IPad is not working after I downloaded the new iOS 7. I tried to reset the IPad to no avail. Could anyone be so kind to help me?

I"m going to make the presumption that you've checked the volume and that you don't have it muted. One thing some have suggested is to go into the settings and reset all settings.
It is kind of a drag because you wil have to retweak everything but it's helped for some.

Sound on iPad is not working and I've tried all

sound on iPad is not working and I've tried all.. Someone HELP me

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.

HELP iPad mini sound not working

We just bought our daughter her iPad mini today and the sound just stopped working. It'll only work with headphones; we never put headphones in prior to the sound not working. I tried resetting the phone and phone settings several times, as well as plugging in and out headphones. I changed the switch on the side to lock rotate. I also turned off the mono sound thing. I am at a loss as to what else there is to do. Any other suggestions? I've been at this for a couple of hours now trying to fix her iPad. Please help!

Do you get sounds in any apps on the iPad ?
If you get sound in the Music and Videos apps but not others then have you got notifications muted ? You say that you changed the side switch to rotation lock, but are sounds muted ? The switch on the side of the iPad controls either rotation or mute, the function that it isn't controlling is set via the iPad's control centre : swipe up from the bottom edge of the iPad's screen and it's the right-most of the 5 icons in the middle of it (if the icon is white then it's 'on', tap it to turn it grey and 'off').
Notification mute and rotation lock : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

My ipad2 media volume not working, volume bar not showing

My ipad2 media volume not working, volume bar not showing

here are my similar symptons:
in Settings the volume slider bar when moved plays a sound out of the speaker
when you double press home button, and slide over to the brightness and volume slider bars, the volume slider is completely gone.
when you plug in headphones it works fine, volume rocker controls volume perfectly.
when you press volume rocker without headphones, nothing happens, or a blank "sound effects" icon displays.
I sent my Ipad2 to Apple for this under warranty. They said there are some small scratches on the side of it.
It lives in a heavy duty case, but the exposed area has been knicked some how. The little divots in the metal on the side mean that "impact" must have broken it.
Forget the fact that it spontaneously started happening and that the speakers and headphones both work at various times, and the volume rocker works, but iOS 5.1.1 apps can't send sound out the speaker, but the volume settings in the sound do send out sound..
so they refused to look at it or repair it under the warranty. I was a day away from buying yet another apply device in our family that already has a couple iPod Touches and 2 iPads. I think I'll buy a droid now.

Message tone, music, lock/keyboard sounds not working...tried everything =[

Hey all, iPhone 4s has gone mental!
I have read through many posts on sound not working and i have tried everything, previous back ups, complete restore, clean out the headphone port, hard restore, also the volume buttons on the side when pressed will show ringer but no volume adjustment bar pops up =/ and the change volume with buttons is 'on'
unless my headphones are plugged in nothing works, except my ringtone.

Cheers all
