Microphone problem with iPad mini

I bought the iPad from the Apple Store 2 months ago. Till yesterday the microphone worked fine. My husband has it with him in Greece and we talked on Skype. Today it no longer works. I tried the reset technique of holding the on/off button and home key at the same time. It didn't work. We checked the settings for restrictions-it didn't work. It shows that the microphone is on. Any ideas? Please?

Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
To solve some sound problems, just follow these simple steps
1. Go to Settings
2. Tap on General
3. Tap on Reset
4. Tap on Reset All Settings
What this effectively does is to reset some of your Settings to factory default. It’s not a complete removal of settings. It removes all of your preferences for Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, Do No Disturb, Notifications, General, Sounds, Brightness & Wallpaper and Privacy. It doesn’t affect your data. All of your email accounts will remain intact, as well as any SMS text or iMessages.

        Hey there nemesyssoft!
    Congrats on the new iPad! It's a great device! We certainly want you to be able to use the device as soon as possible. If I may ask, were you still having issues connecting to the data network at all? Activation can take be a bit longer the initial time. Please let us know if you still need assistance.

  • Does anyone have battery problems with iPad mini retina?

    I am noticing that there may be an issue with my iPad Mini Retina battery.
    I will put to charge at night and in the morning it will say it is at 23% when I actually unplug it
    it changes to 100 or 93%.
    Is this happening to anyone else.
    Could it be I use it too much???
    It is only 1 year old.

    AlanLpdx wrote:
    The same thing happened to me. I think what happens is that the OS update starts ALL of your apps running in the background and burns through th battery....
    I don't see that as causing the issue though.  Plain fact is that only a very few apps can truly RUN in the background (i.e. execute some task, like playing music).  Most apps in the recent tasks bar are suspended (similar to a UNIX halt state), not running, since the iOS only supports a very limited sort of multitasking and most apps do not have any code that can, in fact, run in the background.
    So, for those experiencing the reduced battery life, I think something else must be happening, although I don't know what since my battery life has been excellent with all the upgrades.  Just saying that I'd suspect some other cause for those with the problem.

    I have an ipad mini.  I upgraded to ios7 last night.  Everything looks good except safari and the camera.  I do not see the new funtionality in safari and my camera does not have pano and the button that allows you to change effect.  Any ideas?

    Hi ..
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    You may have to re enter your Wi-Fi password.
    If nothing above has helped, try here >  iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

  • Problem with Ipad Mini not restoring or coming put from recovery mode

    Hey so I have an Ipad mini,
    A little while ago it kept resetting while in the middle of watching things or working on emails. It would happen about once a week or so. Then last night it's been stuck in a continual loop of trying to turn on.
    I've managed to put it in recovery mode, and I've plugged it into iTunes and it'll partly restore, up until the point of 'your ipad is now resetting' but the picture on the ipad is it still in recovery mode.
    Then I've also had error 9 come up as will, so I've changed the USB port as well.
    Any help would be great,
    Thanks

  • Problems with Ipad mini

    I just got an Ipad on my imail wont connect saying there is a server problem. However, I can brows the internet on the same Ipad so this cannot be true...

    Not that's not necessarily true. You may still be able to connect to the Internet but maybe not connect to your email provider's server.
    Try quitting the mail app completely and you can even try turning off mail for that account and then turn it on again and see if you can connect to the server then.
    In order to quit the mail app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Reboot the iPad as well.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If you still can't connect, try turning mail off, restart and then turn mail on again.
    Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Your email account>Mail>Off. Or if its a POP account ... Settings>Mail, contacts, calendars>Your email account>Account>Off. Restart the iPad, go back to the settings and turn mail on again, launch Mail and see if you can connect.

    Re: Wifi problem
    Some things to try first:
    1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
    2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
    3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at
    http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
    4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
    5.  Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
        •    Launch Settings app
        •    Tap on Wi-Fi
        •    Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
        •    In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

    Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
    Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
    You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.

  • Blue Yeti microphone problem with iPad 2!

    I have a Blue Yeti microphone which I connect to a powered hub (Logik LP4HUB10) and an Apple camera connection kit which I then have used through GarageBand on my iPad 2. Due to various reasons I did not use the Yeti for about 9 months or so. Anyway, when I returned to use it today, when I plug in (through recommended connection sequence) and turn on GarageBand, the microphone does not work. The light is on constantly (doesn't even blink when I press the mute button) and GarageBand does not seem to acknowledge the microphones existence (not even an error message of any sort). I have tried the microphone on my PC and it works fine. The Yeti previously worked fine through GarageBand on my iPad 2. Therefore, can anyone provide any help at all? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
    Many thanks,

    It's really hard to say why it's not working since it should not work to begin with.
    That's a completely unsupported configuration and could very well damage your iPad.
