ITunes switches to avg volume when switching speakers

Anyone find it absurd that the volume is reverted to 70% or so after switching from an AirPort Express to Computer?
Suppose you put in your headphones, turn the volume down and switch to Computer. What's more stupid than to assume that the user wants 70% volume after that?

Just to add... I have iTunes configured to open on Space 2 for default. I just removed this configuration and it stopped doing it. Then I configured it again and it's doing it again.
Don't really know what changed from yesterday, all I can think of is the iTunes update I did.
Going to remove the configuration until I get and update that may address this issue.

  • The new iTunes update mutes the volume when movies are played in full screen.  Help?

    Yep.  After installing 11.1.3, the audio of a movie in iTunes when you switch to full screen plays for a fraction of a second and then goes off.  I can play other things in the background (Pandora, ANYTHING with volume) and the volume for those is fine.  Full screen iTunes, however, is muted.  Furthermore, when I switch from full screen to regular, the audio picks up where it was BEFORE full screen mode and is out of sync until I quit out of the movie and reopen it.
    Is this a new 'feature' setting or has the update given us some fun errors and bugs free of charge?

    Thanks for your reply AppleMan1958. Unforunately the playback problem was only experienced in the project described, - all other projects played fine....and I tried a lot of different ways to do it...so I really believe the whole project, including the playback (which did not work in the editing window in the right hand corner either, -nothing was shown there and the red marker line would not move across the project) just suddenly become totally corrupt...However, after deleting the project as described above and installing imovie11 I have done the whole thing over again and completed the project without problems this time.
    But thanks for the tip anyway!

  • HT201413 I have restored and updated my ipod from recovery mode however I still have the usb cord and itunes icon on the ipod when it is switched on. How can I get my ipod to work again?

    I have restored and updated my ipod from recovery mode, however I still have the usb cord and itunes icon on the ipod when it is switched on. How can I get my ipod to work again? I have updated and restored 5 times! When connected to itunes it only shows the summary page saying ipod in recovery mode.

    Fixed it!
    1. Made sure itunes software was up to date
    2. Pressed and held 'home' button and 'on-off' button at the same time for about 10 seconds till ipod reset (I hadn't done this step previously)
    3. Connected to itunes
    4. Pressed restore and update ipod
    Update successful and ipod taken out of recovery mode

  • ITunes switched to Chinese on its own

    My iTunes switched to Chinese on its own and I do not know how to switch it back. I tried going to my macbook's system preferences, but my language is already set to English. I've restarted both iTunes and my computer and nothing has worked!

    OK, let us know if that takes care of the problem. Also if you are in the habit of turning off your compute when you're done with it for the day please read your owner's manual again. It isn't necessary to turn it off, on page 15 of the current models it says;
    Putting Your iMac to Sleep
    If you‘ll be away from your iMac for less than a few days, put it to sleep. When your iMac is in sleep, its screen is dark. You can quickly wake your iMac and bypass the startup process.
    I (and many others) are in the habit of leaving their machines on 24/7. I let mine sleep when not being used, it been doing this for about 4  years and has been 100% reliable. Just a thought!

  • I have a 6thgen Nano, and all the recent songs I've purchased from iTunes wont play at normal volume when connected via audio cable. Can anyone help me figure out why?

    This is a semi-new problem, ongoing for several months. I've purchased songs from iTunes before and they play just fine on my Nano when connected to an audio jack cable, but for some reason, anything downloaded in the last few months plays at an insanely low volume. Normally, if I hit the advance button on the Nano to skip to the next song I'll hear a split second of the song at normal volume, but that's it.
    I've restored both the iPod and my iTunes (using a Dell laptop, Windows 7) multiple times but to no avail. The songs play fine in iTunes itself, but I've even noticed a decrease in volume when listening to the songs on headphones. I'm beyond frustrated with this as I can't find any support online in the Apple archives, and I can't listen to any of my new music without burning to disc. Any help would be greatly appreciated!!

    I have, a couple different pairs, unfortunately, and still no change. TBH, the headphones don't bug me nearly as bad as the fact that I can't plug my iPod into a radio or speaker with an audio cable and hear my latest purchases. Drives me crazy that I can't listen to my tunes!    

  • Itunes 9 won't connect to remote speakers when firewall on?

    Hello all
    Got an annoying problem streaming to Airport Express. Hopefully somebody has come accross this or has a suggestion on how to resolve it.
    When Itunes 9 tries to connect to remote speakers linked to AE it give an error message of something like "error connecting to remove speakers ASDFDSFLDSF. unknown error(-15000)". I have noticed that when I turn my firewall (ZoneLabs) off everything is fine. I have put Itunes on the program list of trusted programs but this doesn't help matters.
    Airport express is about 1 month old and has all recent updated.
    Anyone got any idea what I should be doing?
    Thanks in advance,Andrew

    When Itunes 9 tries to connect to remote speakers linked to AE it give an error message of something like "error connecting to remove speakers ASDFDSFLDSF. unknown error(-15000)".
    With any luck, the following troubleshooting document may be of some help with that:

    EDIT: drat ... sorry, that one's for the Mac ... okay, will look a bit further to try to track down the relevant Windows firewall settings. At any rate, if you're behind on your Firmware versions, it would still be worth checking on that.

  • Itunes can't see my Airport Express speakers after I close my laptop

    So this is a weird issue- and I haven't been able to find a prior discussion on this topic. Apologize in advance if I asking something that is already well documented.
    but I've seen the problem on two separate laptops now: if I stream my itunes through my airport express speakers and then subsequently close my laptop (presumably putting it into hibernate or some other energy saving mode), itunes cannot see the airport speakers upon reopening the laptop. I have to reset Itunes - and then it will see these speakers every time. Same thing happens when I reset my airport express- sometimes I have to reconfig the router through the airport utility. As soon as a press update and the router resets... then itunes cannot see the airport express speakers.
    Not a huge issue- just requires a lot of rebooting to fix. Buts its frustrating.. my macbook speakers are lame. I wish itunes has some sort of speaker refresh button that would reset the speaker settings.
    My wife says it is known itunes bug.. anyone know anything on this?
    Thanks in advance everyone!!

    1. Did you try just to switch back to the cpu-speaker and the directly back to the express?
    2. Did you do a firmware update of your express? Just open the express-server-program to do so.

  • Problems with volume when streaming a Netflix movie from my Mac Book Pro (Mid 2009) to my flat screen TV?

    Hi!
    Does anyone know what I need to do in order to turn up the volume when I’m streaming a Netflix movie from my Mac Book Pro (Mid 2009) to my flat screen TV?
    I hooked up the HDMI adapter from my Mac to my TV and it is currently in Mirror Mode, but I can’t turn up the volume, the only audio I’m able to adjust is on my Mac.
    I’ve already tried: System Preference > Sound > Output > Internal Speakers Built in output.  That’s the only option my Mac gives me.
    Any suggestions?

    Hello jguti,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    I understand that your external display connected via HDMI is not being detected by the computer.  At this point, the best bet for your next troubleshooting step would be to reset the system:
    Reset the system
    You can reset the Mac's parameter RAM and SMC.
    Reset the resolution
    Start by resetting the Mac's parameter RAM. If the display does not come up, was previously set to an unsupported resolution, and still results in no video:
    Start up in Safe Mode.
    From the Apple () menu, choose System Preferences.
    Choose Displays from the View menu to open the preferences pane.
    Select any resolution and refresh rate that your display supports.
    Restart your computer.

  • Dropping in volume when exporting

    Whenever I export a song to iTunes from grargeband, the volume drops SIGNIFICANTLY. It drops from where I was it in garageband to almost inaudible unless I turn my speakers way up.
    Is anyone else having this problem? If so what did you do to fix it?
    Thanks

    Turn off the auto-normalization in the preferences!

  • If I have my iMac internet sharing turned on, the Airport Utility won't recognize the Airport Express I want to use to stream iTunes to my stereo.  When I turn the iMac internet sharing off, the Airport Express appears but calls itself a base station.

    If I have my iMac internet sharing turned on, the Airport Utility won't recognize the Airport Express I want to use to stream iTunes to my stereo.  When I turn the iMac internet sharing off, the Airport Express appears but calls itself a base station.  I just bought the Airport Express and it's not clear how I should set up my System Preferences for Sharing.  Thx

    Yes. Unfortunately the stereo is too far from the wired ethernet connection   My iMac is connected to the internet using an ethernet cable from the DSL modem (plugged into the wall, not wireless).  The Airport Express is plugged into an outlet 25' away from the iMac and connected to my speakers.  I've turned on the iMac Airport wireless Internet Sharing, hoping to stream iTunes to the Express connected to the stereo.  The iMac Airport picks up several neighborhood networks so I know it's working (and I connected my iPhone wifi to it just to check as well).
    When I use Airport Utility to set up the Express, the only time Utility recognizes the Express is when the iMac Airport is off.  When I turn on the iMac Airport, the Airport Utility immediately loses the Express and asks to rescan.
    Maybe that explains my problem better.

  • Keeping the volume when converting an AIFF file to MP3

    Hello,
    I use Garageband to make a podcast that I then send to iTunes. Within iTunes I get the name, artist, date etc. set, then I convert the AIFF to an MP3.
    However, I have noticed that the volume of the converted MP3 file is significantly lower than the original AIFF. I have tried converting to AAC and the same applies.
    The volume of the original AIFF seems perfect to me... How can I get the MP3 file to be at the same level when converting?
    Thanks in advance...

    The only thing I can think of is that you have Sound Check enableb and so it is lowering the volume when you convert to keep it the same as the rest of your library. Try turning it off.
    It is also possible that having it off could cause the same problem, so if it is off, try turning it on and see what happens.
    To check the status of Sound Check, go to the Playback tab in Preferences.

  • E72: How to mute the loudspeaker volume when playi...

    When I use the Media Player it seems to be playing MP3 not on a speaker, but on a
    loudspeaker only.
    How do I mute the loudspeaker volume when playing my MP3 recordings - basically what I need is to be able to play recordings on a speaker (but not on a loudspeaker, which is on a back side of the phone - next to camera) only.
    Thanks

    I am not sure I understand.  There are only two ways to play sounds on an E72, through the earpiece and through the speaker.  Are you talking about a set of Bluetooth stereo speakers?  I have never used anything like this, but maybe someone else can give a recommendation.
    When the Music Player is running, I am also not aware of a mute key, although other Nokia phones may have this feature.  I think sometimes the Talk Key has weird functions on some phones, but not on my E73.  If you want to mute (or pause) playback, I have always done it the old fashioned way, by bringing Music Player to the front and pressing pause.

    Take a look at the troubleshooting steps provided by Apple in this support article:

    Hope those help.
    Your iPod touch will never appear in Windows Explorer, by the way. It doesn't have the "disk mode" that the older iPods did.
