Loose volume button. help

I bought a iPad mini with retina display a couple days ago and the upper volume button slightly moves when you gently press it. My lower volume button and the off button do not do this. Is this normal?

We can't make your decision for you. If YOU feel it is a problem, then by all means, take it back and get one to replace it.

Ipad mini loose volume buttons

I had my ipad mini with retina display for 2 weeks now and my volume buttons are loose. I'm very happy with my ipad but the fact that my volume buttons are loose just bothers and I would hate to go back to apple to complain about such a small issue. Is there a possibility for the loose volume button to break in the future?

It might. You need to make an appointment at your local apple store, take it in and have them look at it. Before you go in, be sure to back everything up because apple stores don't repair in store, they swap your malfunctioning device for a replacement.

Ipad mini retina - loose volume buttons

I recieved my ipad mini 2 (retina screen) yesterday evening (ordered from apple store)
Very happy with it, however there seems to be an issue with the volume buttonsm the up button feels really loose and rattles when you shake the ipad, the down button seems to be very stiff and doesnt make a sound. The up button seems very springy even with the loosest touch and rocks back and forth if you run your finger over the button, the down button seems solid and doesnt move,
is this just me being fussy or is there an actual problem, if i take it into a store will i get a replacement ?
thanks

Hey Tom:
In Mexico we don't have Apple Store's (they should bring at least 1 Genius Bar somewhere ) so I take it to an "authorized service" store by Apple and achieved nothing but wasted time (+ 1 week and was diagnosed as manufacturing defect but nothing "too serious" or affecting functionality . I have reported them with Apple). I fully understand that if this would have happened in USA things would have been very different and I find this unfair when my iPad is obviously wrong, the button moves and even make some noise. Is not my first Apple product or first iPad, I know there is something wrong.
According to UPS (two days ago) they received in Apple my package and since then I haven't heard a thing .
Today I'll leave the city for a trip and I was really expecting to have the iPad before the weekend but seems that its not going to be like that.
I have never had a problem with Apple (or my family in the past 12 years) and I am very disappointed with the support and attention but more importantly the resolution of my problem has been S-L-O-W and is still not resolved. Since I bought the iPad almost a month now has not been used nicely .
Anyway thanks for your answer, I'm expecting a call from Support but I'm sure I will not have my replacement today and will be another whole week without it.

Volume buttons loose

I notice my volume buttons are slightly loose. I went to the apple store and almost every iPhone 4 on display had either the lock/unlock or home or volume buttons loose...I only have the volume button. I would hate to swap it and get one with the home button loose.
Any one else with volume button loose?

What constitutes a loose VOLUME button and not a HOME button is when you move it up and down it feels loose instead of being rock solid like I have seen on some iP4...and I find it annoying. Some would not...call it OCD if you like but I don't like it. Now the thing is that I know there are more people having issues with HOME loose button which is worse in my opinin so I would hate exchanging mine and get solid VOLUME button but loose HOME or ON/OFF buttons!

My volume buttons have ceased to work when I want to use the built-in speakers, however they will work when I use my headphones....help!

This thread concerns IOS 7.1.2. update and the subsequent loss of volume button functionality and use of internal speakers.
Please can someone help from the mac team!
It's not a jailbreak phone. The phone is a replacement from Apple and the volume buttons are virtually won't work for certain functions on the phone. Here are the symptoms:
When the volume buttons are pressed on the home screen i get "ringer" and the speaker symbol appear but nothing more (ie. +/- volume)
When playing back from iTunes with no headphones in, I get nothing through the internal speakers, nor do the volume buttons work, nor is the volume slider visable.
When i playback Youtube content with no headphones in, I get nothing through the internal speakers, nor do the volume buttons work, nor is the volume slider visable.
With headphones plugged in sound is audible and volume buttons work.
Whilst using voicemail, (no headphones connected) i can play the message through the speakers and control volume using side buttons.
I have restored the phone and this has not fixed the problem.
iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.2. upgrade

Hey there jeremy,
It sounds like your Volume buttons aren't working correctly and you are also not getting sound from your built in speaker. I would start by quitting all the running apps on your phone:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

When selecting the camera on 3gs the screen just goes black i can still take a photo using the top volume button but not with the screen please help

hello there
when selecting the camera on my 3gs the screen goes black and has no responce i can take a picture with the top volume button but cannot see it until i open photos
please can anyone help
thankyou andy

Try closing the Camera app completely and see if it works properly when you re-open the app : from the home screen (i.e. not with the Camera app 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
If that doesn't work also do a reset (unless this is what you mean by powering off and restarting) : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Lower volume button control not working help?

If you only restored from backup, restore to factory defaults/new iPod. If you then still have the problem it is likely a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

I suppose that you can demand all you want. It would have to be proven that the iOS update broke this particular function but it could also be said that it was just a matter of time that the broken thing manifested itself. Since the phone is out of warranty, it could also be said that it is your risk to update software. I'm not trying to be argumentative here, but we are not Apple. We are users like you and just try and provide support to other users. What you decide to do from here is your decision. I've given you all I know to do.

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Volume Button Acting like Power Button! Help!

For some reason, my iTouch volume buttons randomly decided to become a power button. Whenever I press a volume button, it turns off. It even gets the power off slide if I hold it long enough! It won't change the volume right either. Can somebody please help?

I am having the same issue. If anyone has a fix to this i would appreciate it. I have tried resetting and removing all data from the iPod but it did not work.

I need some help to move volume button in flash file.

Hello,
If anyone can help with this 2 issues I’ll be very glad.
I have this swf file to which I need to move the volume button to another place because my flash will be smaller and the button its not visible there. I have a picture attached with correct position. Actually I haver managed to move it myself using Adobe Flash Pro, but as I export the fla file to swf it results a mess. I have tried also with Sothskin Quicker with same results.
2. I need the main pictures to have direct links to my prefferance i.e. www.mysite.com/forum. I don’t know where to enter it.
I attached the 1Mb rar file with swf , xml and correct position. http://www.fileswap.com/dl/hihoGYdQZx/
