Latest update no sound for text, email, plugging in ipad

since the latest update a couple of days ago my iPad sounds will not work. I mean the ones for incoming text messages, emails, plugging the iPad in- ALL STANDARD SOUNDS OFFERED BY APPLE NOT downloaded sounds!  This is very frustrating.  I have synced my iPad on my computer, i have shut down the iPad numerous times, if anyone else is having this problem please let me know. If it's an Apple bug please fix it.
thank you

I think that you have system sounds muted.
If you lost sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may 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 control center if you are running iOS 7 or iOS 8. Swipe up from the bottom of the screen to get to control center . Tap on the bell icon and system sounds will return.
If you are running iOS 5 or iOS 6, the system sound control is in the task bar at the bottom. Double tap the home button and swipe all the way to the right in the task bar to get to the speaker icon on the left side. Tap on that and the sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock can be accessed in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

    Cannot download the latest update 7.1.1 even though plugged in and on wifi keeps saying error help!!!!!

    I am not getting an errr #. It just says that there are purchases on my ipod, not in my itunes. I transfer all of my ipod purchases into itunes. Then I try an download the new version of my ipod 7.1.1. It still says there are purchases on my ipod touch. So I just hit continue because their are not purchases on my ipod, that aren't in itunes. It extracts the software, and backs up ipod. Then itunes just closes. When I reopen it I get the same message A new iPod software version (7.1.1) is available for the iPod “My" iPodl”. Would you like to update your iPod now? My imac has recently been restored to as new, I have the newest ipod touch, and my version of itunes is also the newest version. The only thing that I can assume is that the problem, is another untested & bad update, from Capn Cook.

  • Two days ago I was sent a notice of an update being available for my new 5s and Ipad Air. I tried to do the update and it wouldn't allow me to and ever since I can not acsess the internet on either device.

    Please help! Two days ago I received a message stating that a new update was available for my new 5s and IPad Air. I attempted to do the update and wasn't allowed to. Since then I am not able to access the internet on either device. It has been 2 days. These are very expensive paper weights that are only 2 weeks old!

    Thank you for your response. Like you it doesn't make sense to me either, however I finally got a response back from  AT&T. There are two towers down in my rural area and they should be backup tomorrow between 2-3pm. The update 'mess' is just a coincidence? We'll see,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,

    I used Mpeg Streamclip last night to take the .mov files to DV, but same thing I put into iDVD and made a disk image. Once all done i opened the image and the videos were there, but no audio.
    This first dvd had 2 of the videos in it the totaled about 90mins. I will try using the higher format. Also with having MPEG streamclip now, I guess I should go back to the .WMV files and try to converting form them? instead of the .mov files.

  • My iPhone 5 is not pushing through notifications for text/ emails or alerts in a proper fashion!

    My iPhone 5 is not pushing through notifications properly. The screen lights up but there is no sound alert or banner it may or may not be followed by a sound alert and / or banner or the sound alert may come twice even after the text/ email/ app notification has been checked. Or the banner notifications are being pushed through hours after I have checked the emails. I have checked the notification setting and all is in order and software is up to date as well. Called apple support but they want to charge me even to comment on what the problem could be related to! Pl help!

    Buying a bundle doesn't mean that your device will work aborad you need to make sure roaming is enabled on your account.
    If you have a EE extra plan you still need to make sure roaming is enable on your account your plan only gives you free/cheaper calls when abroad.
    If your wanting to enable roaming on your account there could be a deposit to pay if you haven't had the device for about 6 months.
    Unless you have paid the deposit then roaming is not enabled on your account.
    You need to activate roaming on your account by calling 150 from your device or from a landline 01707 315000 before you leave the UK.
    But you can still do this if you are abroad.
    If you have had the device/contract for 6 months or over you can login to your online account and turn on roaming yourself
    Manage this device>Usage controls>Roaming abroad - Allow and Call abroad and turn it on. If the option is not there you need to call
    It can take 24 hours to activate
    If you had this device/contract for under 6 months you need to call customer services on +44 7953 966250 from a landline.
    Once you have activated roaming you can then use this link to see what cost there is and what bundles you can have.

    And this

    Also sending a text to 150 with the words of RO country your going to i.e. RO Spain will get you a reply of what the costs will be from that country.

  • Change layout for text email to landscape instead of potrait

    I success send the text report to email. But how can I change layout for my text email to landscape instead of potrait. I am using FM SO_DOCUMENT_SEND_API1 to send an emails.

    I believe it is restricted by the length of the line which is about 70 characters or something like that. so there is no portrait or landscape option.
    I put my form instead of text in the printspool convert that to a pdf file and send that as an attachment automaticaly to the recipient.
