Iphone 4: why is the ringtone volume louder than playing music?

i have a custom ring tone on my i4. i just happened to realize this, but when i played a song from my phone in the ipod section, it doesn't sound as loud as the ringtone version of it.
why. is. this??? oh please tell me there's a way to adjust the volume so the songs in my phones library can sound as loud as the ring tone. and i mean, it's considerably louder.
why on earth don't the songs play that loud in the FIRST place???

The song will fade out completely before the ringtone starts. On top of that you might have the vibration catching your attention and/or notice the display lighting up with the caller's info. Plus if you let it ring for some time the ringtone might loop, further catching your attention.
Cheers

AIrplay is not supported on 1st gen, I assume you have a 2nd gen (black box). Not all apps are enabled for AirPlay, this would be up to the developers to do

My iPhone is mixing up the two volume controls

Hello,
I have an iPhone 3G, and recently it started to mix up the two volume controls for ringtone and sound effects very often when I launch an application, especially for games. Normally when I launch an app like a game, the volume control would automatically switch to the one that controls sound effects as soon as the game is finished loading, and it is that one that controls the game sound effects/music; however, now lots of my games use the ringtone volume instead, resulting in sudden and extremely loud sounds (since I always keep ringtone volume to maximum) that are not controllable even if I adjust the ringtone bar, forcing me to mute the iPhone altogether. Does anyone know what's wrong and how to fix this? Restarting did not work.

No one ever had this problem before or know how to fix it? o.x

How do you increase the voicemail volume on an iPhone 4s ( Verizon ). The phone volume is fine. It is when I retrieve voicemails. Even the speakerphone is faint. I have adjusted the side volume buttons and the volume control in settings.What am I missing?

Number one - that person has given you false information...the Apple store genius bar supports all Apple products whether in or out of warranty. Checking is free, service on an out of warranty item is not free.
Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.
Since you show that you have iOS 7.0.3 you might want to update that iOS to 7.0.4...plug the iPhone in so you are on a solid power source, then while on a WiFi go to Settings > General > Software Update and update to 7.0.4.

Why is the max volume so low on my ipod 6th gen

why is the max volume so low on my ipod 6th gen

Well, my volume control certainly does influence the start up chime and I cannot see why yours shouldn't. Use keyboard buttons F11 and F12 to adjust your sound level last thing at night and if your machine auto starts in the morning it will not wake the household.
True, if volume control is turned down to a lower level, you would have to adjust it for other sound output that you do want later, iTunes and videos on browsers etc, but it requires little effort.

Why is it that my iPhone 4 suddenly lost the sound bar in music and YouTube? I am able to make phone calls, but otherwise my iPhone is silent. It says that it is playing music, but no sound is emmitted, nor am I able to change this.

Not knowing what steps were included in "all the troubleshooting possible with Apple people," I'll suggest you give the phone a chance to reprovision your cellular account.
First turn off Wi-Fi. Then power off your phone. Hold the Sleep/Wake button until you see the power off slider. Then slide to power off. Turn the phone back on. After the phone starts watch to see if No Serive is displayed. Hopefully after 15-30 seconds that will change to the name of your cellular service provider and finally indicate LTE or 4G as well as include some dots indicating signal strength. You can then turn Wi-Fi back on.

How to raise the ringtone volume in nokia 5200??

i cant figure it out how to raise the ringtone voice on my nokia 5200, when someone calls me the ringtone voice is low and than after like 4 seconds it goes higher and higher to the maximum...i want the ringtone volume to be at the maximum from the first second that someone calls me, some help would be great

hi,
What you need to do is go into:
"Settings" then "Tones" and make sure "Incoming Alert" is changed to "Ringing" rather than "Ascending"
I hope this helps.

How to raise the ringtone volume te the maximum? (...

hi all im having a prob with my nokia 5200 the ringtone volume when someone calls me is low than it starts raising for like 5 seconds to the maximum ... i want the ringtone volume to be at the maximum from the first second that someone calls me ... PS whats the musical note button on the left side of the mobile phone serve for ? when i press it a mp3 song starts playing but i have like three mp3 songs in the music folder and i can listen to just one

You can't change this....it's a safety feature. Actually I quite like it: it's much less antisocial since it lets you answer the phone before it annoys too many people......

Iphone 5 - why is the phone# 'grayed'...

iphone 5 - why is the phone# grayed in imessage under "You can be reached...'?

Because there is no reason for it not to be grayed out.
iPhone automatically registers your phone number for use with FaceTime and iMessage during activation.
You can also add an email address to be reached at via iMessage in addition to your phone number, but you can't remove the phone number for this with an iPhone.

Why does the ringer volume display frequently on 3gs

Why does the ringer volume keep displaying on my 3gs? Seems it may do this when the phone is picked up or shaken.

This just happened to me today. The ringer volume display just remains on screen. Tried hard rese, nothing. It happened right after I dropped my 3GS - of which I've done many times but had not affected it because of the silicone case taking the brunt of the shock. Hope someone has a solution to this.

How can I get my ipod nano (6th gen) to stop making a static-y noise when I try to listen to my music? It has been doing this for a week and the music is faint while the static is louder than it.

It has been doing this for a week and the music is faint while the static is louder than it. I try plugging it in to my iTunes and when I un-plug it, it still makes the loud static noise. I have also tried tapping my knuckle on the back of my ipod nano. This has not damaged it at all nor caused this to my ipod. There is no water damage to the ipod. Only a few scratches from a couple drops. The drops have been on concrete but not at a very high distance. How to I stop this? Do I need to replace my ipod instead?

Have you tried a different pair of earbuds/headphones to rule out a pair of damaged/faulty ones? You might also want to make sure the headphones are securely and firmly seated in Nano's headphone jack. Lastly, check the headphone jack for any signs of debris or damage. You may need to have the headphone jack replaced either by Apple or a third party repair company.
I assume this static is present on any track you listen to versus only particular ones?

Try resetting your phone by pressing and holding both your home and power button at the same time for about 15-20 seconds till the apple logo appears ..
Hope it works out for u :)
