IPod Nano - Home Theater / Bose Wave CD - Volume too low?

Connecting my Nano via the 3.5 mm plug as an AUX to a Bose Wave CD or my home theater produces a very low sound - I need to turn up the volume quite a bit. However, if I hook up the same Nano to Bose computer speakers - all seems fine. I am contemplating buying the Bose Wave CD, but if this remains a problem, I am not too happy. Suggestions?
- via dock connector - such as in Bose Sounddock - this is not a problem.
- I am not currently using the sound limiter option

You don't mention which nano but on the 6th gen you can adjust the volume limit in the settings.

Make a Genius Bar appointment at your nearest Apple Store and pay $75 USD for an out-of-warranty replacement.

Try restarting your device. If that doesn't work, take it to an Apple store. If it is less than a year old and just stopped working, they will replace it for free (be sure to back it up to iTunes first). If you dropped it, you will have to pay because Apple will not replace a device due to "Human Error." If it is more than a year old, you will either have to pay to get it fixed, or have to pay to get it replaced.

Unity 7 VM .wav volume too low

I just converted to Unity 7 UC and some users are complaining that the volume on the .wav files is too low even when they have the volume turned up all the way. I saw other posts from unity 3, etc.. that wanted you to adjuct the gain levels on the voiceports. Is that still valid and if so, do I adjust them on the remote side that is experancing the low volume issue.
Thank you for your help.

My Ipod Nano no longer goes to full volume. Can this be fixed?

Recently, I have found that my Ipod Nano (2nd generation) no longer plays music at full volume. While it is generally sufficiently loud, at the gym, with all the external noise, I have trouble hearing some of my music. Is there a fix for this problem?

sound, like it needs repaired
but 1st try an restore to factory setting's plug the ipod in to computer and click on the ipod tab click on restore, if its still the same as before it's time for repair check out this web site

And why is the crappy supermarket mp3 player louder then my Ipod Classic then???
I don't know, you tell us!
I also use an extra AKG headphone with a low impedance which fits the Ipods output, otherwise it would even be more silent.
I have an old pair of AKG K340 headphones and I use a Cmoy "altoids" amp to drive them from the iPod.
I compared also with my old 5.5 Video Ipod and with the volume cap enabled (i can also uncap it of course :-)) it is 5dB louder then the classic.
I believe it is a known fact that the 5th gen iPod can be hacked, the Classic cannot.
I am also working for a very big service department for Nokia Siemens Networks and within i learned that the customer is the king, but this doesn't seem to apply for Apple.
As has already been said, it is an EU law - and all mp3 players sold within the EU must comply with EU legislation. If you know of a brand that doesn't, perhaps it's not actually approved for sale within the EU. Apple are not going to ignore an EU law, whatever you think or say! Do you think the EU would simply roll over and let Apple ignore this law?
I am not the only complaining customer i suppose, and normally when a company is loosing (normally satisfied) customers it should think about customer oriented solutions.
As above!
When i buy an Apple product i automatically assume a very good product, but i am really, really annoyed this time. Other producers within the EU don't play by the book and no one takes care about it, or how can the supermarket mp3 play much louder than the classic (i measured the same!! output impedance).
I believe other manufacturers do play by the book. Is "supermarket mp3 player" a euphemism for something that should not be sold within the EU?
You know - since you feel this strongly about it, you should take the matter up with your MEP (Member of the European Parliament), since what you say here will not change a thing.

IPod Nano won't turn on--flashes apple image/low battery--is it dead?

I just used my iPod nano two days ago and it was working perfectly fine. I was just about to use it tonight when I realised that it wasn't turning on. I tried resetting it, but nothing happened. So I plugged it into my computer, to see if it would charge. The computer is not recognizing it. The images that flash on the screen are the black apple logo, like when it starts up normally, but then it does a low battery with an exclamation point/lightning bolt. Is my battery dead already? I just bought it in January!!
Any help would be great. I just moved up to college and had a horrible time getting connected to the network here. I had to drag my computer down to their lab so I could download software updates (because I wasn't able to use the internet in the room because I didn't have the updates--but couldn't get the updates because I couldn't go on the internet!)... Grr.
iMac Indigo G3; ipod Nano Mac OS X (10.3.9)

It's likely that your iPod's battery is dead, since it hasn't been put to use in almost 4 years. You'll need to have the battery replaced either by Apple or a third party repair company ( a little cheaper).
Or if you want you can purchase and swap out the battery yourself using one of the numerous walk through guides online.

IPad volume too low on Apple TV when watching movies

Hi.
I have the latest Apple TV, 3rd Gen iPad and Retina MacBook Pro. If I play any movie through Apple TV using my iPad (using Video App) the volume is often far too low. This means that I have to turn my Amp/Speakers up (to around +60; +40 is normal) often leading to the sound cutting out altogether and on one occassion blew my amp.
However, I can put the identical film/file on my MacBook Pro - stream that into my Apple TV and the volume outputs at +40 as normal and everything is fine.
Also - If I stream TV etc through the iPad and play it onto my Apple TV - again this can be heard no problems at +40. The same can be said if I stream a youtube video using the iPad (+40 is fine)
I can only conclude there is something amiss with my iPad or in partic the Video App/settings for films but have no idea how to remedy it.
Pls can someone help me sort this as my Macbook pro is often left in the office and so I cant use it to watch movies at home all the time
Thanks

Have you tried checking or resetting your volume limiter under "music" from the Settings home page. Scroll down to "Music" and tap "Volume Limit". Once there you can either turn it off or raise the maximum volume. If you go to the max it will just turn off the limiter.
Here's a video from CNET that also explains this easy adjustment.

Hope this makes it better for you.

Volume too low on ringer and with hands-free headsets

Both the ringer's volume and the volume within headsets are too low in my new Droid X. When holding it to my ear while talking it is loud enough well below max volume, but hearing people through headsets while driving is often too low with all volumes set to max (on loud freeways, for example). I usually keep my phone's ringer on silent vibrate, but it would be nice to be able to turn it up louder when the phone is sitting on a desk at home. Cell phone ringers can be obnoxiously loud, but there are times when people need to have them turned up.
Because it is an issue in both the ringer speaker and the jack for wired headsets, it seems like there is a good chance of getting a software fix to raise the max volume levels. Reading posts on forums, it seems clear that this problem is widespread in most, if not all, Droid X devises.
If you are having similar problems, please take a moment to call both Verizon and Motorola with a polite report of the issue. I spoke with both today and they said they were aware of the issue, and the tech at Motorola said they were "looking into" a software fix for it. If enough people call and report it, we have a better chance of getting a fix sometime soon.
Verizon's support line is: (800) 922-0204.
Motorola's is: (800) 734-5870 (I chose #6 for "other issues" a couple of times after routing into Droid support to get a live tech)
It can be frustrating to filter through the support systems and report it, especially if they tell you to try obvious things like rebooting the phone and turning the volume up, but it really is the only way to get them to fix this issue. Both techs I spoke with actually looked in their systems right away and acknowledged the issue is being reported by people.
Of course, if anyone has a real solution to this issue, please let us know what it is!

Thanks for the suggestion JKramer. I should have been more clear about having adjusted all volumes up in the settings screen. Assuming all sound options are located within the "Settings --> Sound & Display" screen, then yes, I have tried changing them. I have also tried changing the option to "use incoming call volume for notifications" under the "ringer volume" settings, after reading that someone had success in improving volume that way.
This issue is not a problem all of the time. It is only an issue when there is an elevated level of background noise, such as driving on the freeway, or having music or a movie playing in the room.
The phone is otherwise excellent! I live and commute in areas of very spotty reception (with all cell providers), and this phone will keep calls and not even have voices garble where my past two phones have consistently dropped calls in at least five problem locations. So far, everything else about it seems to work great!
Maybe some of these phones don't have this issue. Or, maybe the people who say they don't encounter the problem are lucky enough to live in relatively quite environments most of the time. In a quiet house or office, it is certainly loud enough. It just needs to have the option for increased volume when in noisy places. The issue is that its "max volume" settings are not as loud as with other phones.
Searching for something like "Droid X volume" will indeed show many people experiencing these same problems on various forums...

Volume too low on Lumias

I previuosly owned a Lumia 800 and now a Lumia 920, and both have exactly the same problem...the earphone volume is just too low. Things are fine of you are hearing in a quiet room, but if you are walking or jogging in the street, the music volume at 30\30 is too low.
Nokia should get an iphone or ipod and compare, Hard too see how Nokia can sell itself as a music platform, yet produce sub par music devices.
I'm angry because of this. The Lumia 920 is an expensive device. Switching back to the iphone...

I love the Lumia 920 and the Windows 8 OS. I started off with the iphone, then to android, and now to windows 8 phone. However, there are certain things that should be left up to the consumer to control. Not everyone is the same, your hearing may be more sensative than another person. Since this is a Nokia issue, the volume should have been left to a volume level that will please everyone. I like listening to music loud especially when I am cutting my grass. It is annoying using a weed trimmer and I can hardly hear the music cause it is too low even though I have it at the max setting. The exteranl speaker is the same issue. 10/10 is rediculous. Everyone is always trying to control the way others do things and say things, express themselves, etc. It needs to be adressed and included in the next update.

Earpice Volume Too Low!!

I switched from Verizon and a RAZR phone to the iPhone last week and the earpiece volume is TOO low!! I can only hear well in a quiet room or when I use the Headphones, but in a restaurant holding the phone up to my ear, forget it, very low volume. Heck I was walking along Collins on South Beach yesterday and the street sounds made it impossible to hear well.
This is BULLS%@#!
Is Apple doing this to conserve on battery power?
Other than that, (oh and Safari crashing everyonce in a while) I love the phone.

If u change the volume on the phone does it work?
I dont have that headset so i would know...
and the jawbone is probably much better than it
About the crashing... it happens to probably anyone, but apparently, by reseting it (holding home and sleep) it makes them happen less often

Volume too low on TV

I've connected my new Ipod 5G to my TV.
It works well, appart from the volume level.
Even with the volume set to the max on the Ipod, I need to increase the TV volume nearly to the max to ba able to hear well.
BTW, I've noticed, that when I want to hear music on the TV, when I decreasen then increse again the volume on the Ipod, the max volume has decreased by about 1/3 !
Am I the only one ?
Thanks for your answers.

Yes, I have the same "problem"; Normally on my TV the loudest volume we can handle, i.e. to watch News etc is 35, no way higher than that...
I played LOST from my iPod to my TV, first off the iPod has to be put on Maximum volume, and on the TV, to have that "loud enough comfortable-audible" volume like a '35', I have to crank it up to about 42-45... that's how high the volume control I have to raise to hear the show properly
Thanks and cheers

VoiceOver volume too low

I hope everybody can understand the title , as I am still an English learner
Recently I got a ipod shuffle and I love it.But when it is noisy outside I am not able to hear the voiceover , for the volume is too low.Especially when changing playlists.
I know there's no way to make it higher. So can anybody here help to communicate with Apple for the problem ? thx

All of us here are only users like you. The most we can do or suggest is for you to leave feedback to Apple using this link.
