ITunes says volume tuned all the way down - no iTunes sound!

Today iTunes pops up a notification saying 'iTunes volume turned all the way down'. The speakers are on, volume is up. All other media play fine - but there is no sound if I try and play anything through iTunes!
I've never had this problem before.
I downloaded iTunes again, restarted my Mac and still, same problem. Any ideas? Thanks!

FYI, I can't say for sure this will fix your prob, but reinstalling an app on a Mac does NOT re-do the Preferences file, so if the Prefs are wonky, the reinstall will make no difference.
*Renewing the Prefs*
with iTunes not running, move the file Users>YourAccountName>Library>Preferences>com.apple.iTunes.plist to the desktop
Launch iTunes (the app will automagically create a new prefs file)
If the prob is now fixed, move that prefs file to the Trash. There might be some personal settings in iTunes you will need to re-do.

Downloaded ringtone, from iTunes store, is so loud! Volume is all the way down, but the ringtone is crazy loud. Help?!

I downloaded a ringtone from the iTunes store and set it as my text tone. Cool, right? Well, IT'S SO LOUD. My volume is all the way down and people clear across the building can hear it! What can I do?

You should have gotten a user manual. If the manual is of no help, contact the manufacturer.

The sound effects volume is all the way down. It pops on for a second, then disappears. I can't find it in settings. How do I get the sound back?

The sound effects volume is all the way down. It pops up for a second once in awhile and then disappears. I can't find it in the Setting. Music sound plays fine, but no sound on my apps. Any idea how to fix it?

If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

Why is my iTunes volume turned all the way down every time I launch the program?

Everytime I launch iTunes I get a warning and my iTunes volume is volume is turned all the way down. How do I fix this?

This worked for me:
Close iTunes
Open Finder and navigateto: Users>YourAccountName>Library>Preferences>com.apple.iTunes.plist
Move that file to the desktop
Launch iTunes (which will create a new prefs file)
If the problem is now fixed, move that prefs file from the desktop to the Trash. There might be some personal settings in iTunes you will need to re-do.

ITunes starts automatically and the volume is all the way down

Hi everyone, lately I have been experiencing some issues with iTunes. It starts at login (even though the option is not selected) and gives me an alert that the app volume is turned all the way down. Furthermore every time I try to turn up the volume, it will automatically jump back to the previous point.
After many tries, I finally completely re-installed my OS and moved all my data through migration assistant. I only moved applications, music, pictures and documents, leaving behind all the configuration files and other stuff that seemed replaceable. This didn't work either.
Any suggestions?

common problem..sounds like your volume flex cable has shorted. bring to apple service tream

IMac using OS 10.8.4 volume goes all the way down on restart

If my volume is halfway up and I restart my computer it automaticcally changes to all the way down. I want it to remain where I last set it on restart.

it didn't chime twice as the instructions said it would.
When you restarted, was the system clock still showing the correct time? If it was, you probably didn't reset the NVRAM.

My volume automatically turns itself all the way down whenever I start my ipod (even when I'm not playing music)

My volume automatically turns itself all the way down whenever I start my ipod (even when I'm not playing music). As soon as I slide my ipod into opening the volume goes all the way down. Even if it's already completely off, the audio icon comes on the screen, which tells me the ipod is still trying to lower the volume. As I said, I don't even have to be listening to music. I can be on the opening screen. When I turn the volume back up, it immediatley turns it back down. It only doesn't go down if I physically hold my finger to volume bar on the touch screen.
And yes, I've updated all my software (on my ipod and laptop). I've also entirely reset my ipod twice.
Tell me, is it time to ditch the ipod and find some other sort of mp3 player (this is one problem at the end of a long list of less debilitating but equally annoying issues I've had with my 2 ipod touches)

Yeah, I probably mean restore. Multiple times though!
Also, I forgot to mention that this issue persists regardless of whether or not my headphones are plugged in.

Opens with volume all the way down

WHenever iTunes opens under my profile, whether it is a computer restart, log out/log in, or program (iTunes) restart, I always receive the warning that 'The iTunes volume is turned all the way down. To change the volume drag the slider at the top of the iTunes window" I am able to check the 'Do not warn me again' option, but I don't because I want to know why the volume is turned all the way down in the first place.

Here's the answer supplied by Johnny Hands. He's referring to the AirPlay control located next to the volume slider. Make sure your computer volume is turned up or the check mark is disabled on the Multiple tab.

TS3274 My sound On/Off button does not work. I have to turn volume all the way down to silence it. Is the switch faulty, or am I missing sometging

The volume On/Off switch does not work. It does not mute sound. I have to turn volume all the way down to silence the sound.
Is the switch faulty or am I missing something here?

well first remove the case. check the headphone jack for debris. do a hard reset by holding sleep/wake and home button down together for 10 seconds untill apple appears. backup and restore via itunes. if issue persists the device needs repair

I have adobe Premiere Elements 13. It will not let me delete audio or have it fade in or out. I can move the yellow line all the way down till the volume reads -0.0, but the sound is still there on playback. I can click on fade in and fade out and the yellow line that graphs volume takes a sharp raise or dip at the beginning or end of the clip, but there is no change in volume when I play back. What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for the reply. Great news about the volume adjusts.
Now about those fades for the volume. How are you doing that?
1. Right click the Timeline video audio and select Fade and then
see the Fade options (I had a video with audio file, so I saw the choices as shown in the screenshot)
2. You can also create two volume keyframes at each end of the Timeline audio clip rubberband (orange line that goes horizontally across the middle of the audio clip). At the position of the Timeline Indicator, click the Add/Remove Keyframe icon, and then with the mouse cursor position the white dots (volume keyframes) to achieve the Fade In and Fade Out audio. In the screenshot below I have moved the Timeline Indicator so that you could better see the white dots (volume keyframes).
Please let us know if any of the above works for you with regard to the audio fades.
Thank you.

IPad air keyboard makes sound when volume is turned all the way down

My iPad air's keyboard makes noise, even when the volume is turned all the way down. Is this normal? If so how can I turn off the keyboard typing noise without disabling entirely.

Aloha Raptorcheese, Good news, if you have you have change with buttons turned on you can control the keyboard volume with the normal volume control. No need to go back to settings all the time.

No sound. Mute is not checked, volume all the way up on iTunes and on status bar. What am I doing wrong or missing? I restarted last night and it worked before that but not since, any one have any ideas?

Thanks, Rob

First off did you go to System Preferences > Sound > Output > And is the correct output selected?
Any red light coming out of the headphone jack? If so, you'll need to re-set the little switch in there by inserting a 3.5mm jack carefully in & out 20 odd times. Or grab a toothpick (non-conductive) and a flashlight.
Tried anything else that produces a sound? On restart do you get the chime? Perhaps check into Audio Midi Setup to ensure your output is selected correctly using the cog at the bottom left.

Ipad Volume keeps turning itself all the way down

ipad Volume keeps turning itself all the way down rendomly i`ve tryed everything from upgrading to V5 to rest the device what should i do

Is the switch above the volume set for mute? Accidentally bumping that would turn down the volume.
Try Settings > General > Lock Rotation to On and see if that eliminates the problem (although beware that the switch will now control screen rotation. If sound starts working corrcetly, but your screen lock keeps setting, then I think you are having a switch problem.

One small error but it is the same error all the way down through the if's

This program is so close to finally running after I have spent well over 8 hours trying to figure out the code now I am getting an aggravating error saying " ; " expected all the way down throughout my if statements. Can anyone please tell me what to do to get this program to run? I am so close.
Here is my code:
import javax.swing.JOptionPane;
public class CustomerStatus {
public static void main(String[] args) {
int option = JOptionPane.YES_OPTION;
int hiatustime;
int purchasenumber=1;
int loyaltime=0;
String status="";
System.out.println("Purchase Number\t Time before next purchase(months)\tTotal Customer Loyalty(months)\tStatus History");
System.out.println(1 +"\t\t " + 0 + "\t\t\t\t\t" + 0 + "\t\t\t\t" + "STANDARD");
while(option==JOptionPane.YES_OPTION){
hiatustime=Integer.parseInt(JOptionPane.showInputDialog(null, "Enter in the time between purchases(in months): "));
purchasenumber++;
loyaltime+=hiatustime;
If((loyaltime >= 10) && (hiatustime <=6))
status="PLATINUM";
If((loyaltime >= 10) && (hiatustime > 6) && (hiatustime <= 12))
status="GOLD";
If((loyaltime >= 10) && (hiatustime > 12) && (hiatustime <= 18))
status="SILVER";
If((loyaltime >= 10) && (hiatustime > 18) && (hiatustime <= 24))
status="BRONZE";
If((loyaltime >= 10) && (hiatustime > 24))
status="STANDARD";
If((loyaltime < 10) && (loyaltime >= 5) && (hiatustime <= 6))
status="GOLD";
If((loyaltime < 10) && (loyaltime >= 5) && (hiatustime <= 12) && (hiatustime > 6))
status"SILVER";
If((loyaltime < 10) && (loyaltime >= 5) && (hiatustime <= 18) && (hiatustime > 12))
status="BRONZE";
If((loyaltime < 10) && (loyaltime >= 5) && (hiatustime > 18))
status="STANDARD";
If((loyaltime < 5) && (loyaltime >= 1) && (hiatustime <= 6))

If((loyaltime < 5) && (loyaltime >= 1) && (hiatustime <= 12) && (hiatustime > 6))
status="BRONZE";
If((loyaltime < 5) && (loyaltime >= 1) && (hiatustime > 12))
status="STANDARD";
If((loyaltime < 1) && (hiatustime >= 0))
status="STANDARD";
System.out.println(purchasenumber +"\t\t" + hiatustime + "\t\t\t\t\t" + loyaltime + "\t\t\t\t" + status);
option = JOptionPane.showConfirmDialog(null, "Would you like to enter any more time between purchases(in months)? ");
}

hey duke, you're back :)
can you please enclose the whole code in a block. it's hard on the eyes

My touch screen wont work. i've run the battery all the way down then plugged in but screen doest work

after running with my Itouch i came home can could not get the touch screen to work. Ive run the battery all the way down, plugged it in but the screen still doesnt work. any ideas?

Hold the home button and the sleep/wake button (...) until the screen goes black, then turn the thing back on. If it doesn't work correctly, hold the home button while plugging it into iTunes and restore it.
