Low volume with eu firmware

for the people those dont know the situation, i have to summarize. European Union ask for a volume cap for ipods. So apple does different firmwares for usa and eu. that causes volume decrease.. Assume that ipods in usa can give 100 desibels, but ipods in european union can only give 60 desibels..
this *****..
so i need us update for my update. do anyone in usa can post their update file here, or can give me an url to download? your file is in you c:\documents and settings\user name\application data\apple computer\itunes\ipod software updates.

Hi,
let me make a small correction:
there are no different firmwares!
The regional code is hardcoded in the ipod itself.
Restoring with an "US"-Firmware would not change anything.
The other way round:
i have a US-Ipod and had it updated with the newest "European" Firmware.
There is no change in volume.

  • Low volume with X-FI XtremeMu

    I ordered the Vista CD from Creative, installed it, and the automatic updates were applied, well, automatically. Sadly, the volume of my X-FI XtremeMusic is very low compared to what I'd get on XP. I've reviewed the messages here, but I can't find the answer. Is there one?

    Yup, same issue with the x-fi platinum, I have been using the youpax release to solve this issue. This would be an excellant find if it works for all the X-fi family, thats the only issue I have left to solve with this card.. let you know in a bit. Also, installed the latest patches for Vista tonight, didnt help the volume, but it MAY have helped with some of the odd choppiness, hard to tell .... Thanx for the info guys..The very next day ......
    Yup, it works, and it works great, solved a lot of level/volume issues. Great find. And it works on many cl cards

  • Insanely low volume with via8233 onboard sound

    Even with all volumes on alsamixer set to maximum, my via8233 onboard sound puts out about half what it ought to. Through my headphones, it sounds as though it's ten feet away... I can't seem to find anything on this problem anywhere on line, and I don't have a good preamp handy - only the piss-poor, buzzy black speakers that came with my last computer. Can anyone give me some advice?

    It is inaudible, can hardly hear sound. I did try that options line and still nothing. I shouldn't have to use another sound card since it did work once and it does work with all my other distros. But getting another card is an option.
    Thnx.

    Well... How low, exactly, is your volume? Is it just lower than it ought to be, or is inaudible? Because if it's inaudible, then try:
    options snd-via82xx ac97_quirk=0
    If your volume is just a lot lower than it should be, use a preamp, or just stick in another card.

  • IPhone 5s iOS 8.2. low volume with video turned of...

    Hello,
    Today I stumbled across a curious bug on my iPhone 5s with the most recent iOS version. When I make a video call and either one of the users (or both) has the video on, sounds works fine for me. When both users turn off their video during the call (or if the call is made without video at all), the volume suddenly drops down on my end. If video is turned back on again, volume is good again. In other words - during a no video call I almost can't hear the other user from my iphone, but he/she can hear me all the time.
    It's no coincidence, tried it a couple of times.
    Does anyone know how to fix that?

    I have the same issue and it has to do with iOS 8.2
    Apple, please mend this ASAP. Really stupid change since iOS 8.1
    If you for some reason must have many different folder make sure that you put the newst photo in the last folder so one can easily find a photo when I don't want to copy all photos to, let' say, my friend computer.

  • Low Volume with Intel HDA ALC889

    Hi,
    I have a Intel board with Intel HDA ALC889 and I get sound out of it without problems. To get a half-decent volume, I have to set all volume controls (i.e. Master, PCM, Front) to 100 %, but sometimes it is still too quiet. Additionally, when I increase Mic Boost for Skype, all that gets louder is the background noise.
    Sorry for the German locale, but here is the output of aplay -l:
    $ aplay -l

    Is there any solution to get a better volume?
    Thanks in advance.
    Kind regards
    Thomas

    No one with a clue?
    Well, I already tried to set
    options snd-hda-intel model=intel-x58
    according to http://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation … Models.txt as I'd say my board is nearest to a X58 board. But that didn't change anything.
    Can it be a hardware "problem" or something else? Until now, I'm unwilling to spend money on an additional sound card if there is a solution...

  • Nokia X2-00 with low volume in earpiece

    My Nokia x2-00 became with low volume when in conversations. I have pressed the volume keys to the max, but still the volume is very low.
    Any suggestions? Will a firmware update fix this?
    Thanks,
    Pedro

    hi mate,
    Have you checked via Nokia Suite on your PC if there are any firmware updates available for your device? IF there is, please update to the latest version offered. If that doesn't work, you can try re-installing your current firmware through Nokia Suite and if that doesn't work either, try Restoring your phone to factory settings.
    Failing that, you will need to take your phone to your local Nokia Care for them to inspect: http://nokia.com/support

  • Why are midi notes in piano roll lower volume when selected with pointer than when in playback?

    I'm using Logic X on mac mini. When I select midi notes in piano roll with the pointer, they are at a  lower volume than when in playback? I use Logic X on mac mini with Apogee Duet.

    Thanks for your help Erik.  I found the answer you posted about 30 minutes after posting my question.  To me it doesn't answer my question 100%.  The reason is that I can't expect to believe that every time someone records midi they have to go through all these extra steps to merge it (and it is not easy to do because they are hidden behind one another) in fact my problem was so unique that other logic users didn't understand why I am having this trouble.  SO that brings me to my conclusion, that I have some setting that is keeping this from being a seamless operation and transforming it into a bunch of hoop jumps.  Thoughts?  Could it have to do with record settings of "merge"? I saw a few  different settings there but none make sense to me.
    thanks again.

  • How do i change  ringtone volume to ring with low volume first and then gradually increase to the max volume ?

    how do i change  ringtone volume to ring with low volume first and then gradually increase to the max volume ? this feature was available before but is  still available now ? this is for IOS8 running on Iphone 5c.

    I've never been aware of a function like this in the past. You could create a personal ringtone that would last 30 seconds or less and set the volume on that ringtone to do that with an audio editor, such as Audacity.

    I'm trying to play MIDI files in Quicktime. It works buy the volume is very low, even with both Quicktime and computer volume on max. What can I do?

    I'm having the same issue.  After opening Audio Midi Setup in Utilities I noticed that the master volume slider of the Built-In Output is very low.  I am not able to slide to get any more level out of the system.
    Can you adjust the master volume on your system?

  • Songs with very low volume

    Hi!!
    (Excuse me for my bad english language.)
    The songs are being exported with very low volume. I mixed all tracks to best use. I tried all the quality options, including no compression. I also tried with and without Normalize. What else can I try? What could be happening? Tks!

    Hi stosfot,

  • Low Volume Ipod Classic 2009 from USA?

    Hi,
    I just purchased the new Ipod Classic in October in New York City at the Apple Store. Now, back at home in Switzerland, I loaded the Classic via Itunes. Now I have the feeling that the Classic has a much lower volume than my old 5.5G Ipod Video (from the USA, too. Without EU volume cut). Is this possible? Is the new classic more quiet than the older ones? Firmware problem? May I have the EU Version althoug I bought it in New York? Is there a way to figger out via serial number etc. if my classic is an US or an EU model?
    Does anyone, who lives in the US, the same impression about the volume?
    Note: both Ipods are filled with exactly the same files and "maximum volume" is set to max in both models.
    Thanks a lot for some ideas.
    Gero

    Does anyone, who lives in the US, the same impression about the volume?
    My 2009 160GB USA unit is very loud.
    I think that your computer tells the iPod that you are in the EU and it locks in a lower volume.
    In the EU the 'State' and not the individual controls the volume of YOUR music.
    Talk about "over governed". I guess I'm lucky that the "sound Police" didn't confiscate my USA iPod on a recent trip to Europe.
    Good Luck.

  • Low volume in headphone in iphone 4s.

    I have an iPhone 4S, iOS 7.0.4 installed. The volume coming out from my earphone is significantly low comparesd to other iPhone 4S, this is creating a trouble. I'd also like to mention that, my loudspeaker is okay (checked), my earphone is okay (checked with other phon s), my iOS is running flawlessly. I restart my phone hundreds of times. I restored my OS with fresh firmware several times. My headphone port (3.5mm) is working flawlessly aside from the fact that, the volume level is approx 60% of oter same phones. I don't have a warranty.
    Any kind of help, advice or suggestion will do. Thanks in advance.

    this is a pain isnt it
    I plug my beats into the iphone4s, I'm listening away, and then I get an SMS. I click close, coz I wont read that right now, and instantly my volume increases !!, but get this, as soon as the song is finshed and the next song plays, my volume reduces back down again. I need another sms to get my volume back up !!
    So Im thinking, OK, the iphone wants to alert me with Chime - coz its a new SMS, raises its volume, but can neither sustain that volume through to my next song, nor if I unplug my beats and put em back in again.
    *** apple, sort this out!!
