My ipad 3 has no sound, i cant hear music, games, nothing

Can someone help me figure out why i can't hear sounds on my ipad 3

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.)
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

    I have iph 5 but the camera has crashed suddenly and cant hear any sounds on the phone

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

  • My iPhone 4S has no sound when I play music, videos and movies

    Is the slider all the way to the right??
    And no, if your phone is vibrating when you get texts/calls then you're not in Do Not Disturb.   You would see a Crescent Moon symbol to the left of Battery % if it was on.

  • IPad video has no sound

    why when I am accessing the site www.sportlemon.tv (www.trombar.com) the video has no sound?

    Found the fix.
    If the reboot doesn't fix it.
    If the headphoens work find, but no external speakers.
    If the double-click and page right to the software mute, doesn't show the sound knob - just the brightness
    If your pop-up shows "Docking Station"
    Then, the problem is very likely a dirty connector.  The iPad/iPhone/iPod connector uses a resistor value to determine if the device is connected to an external 'speaker'.  There are a range of resistances, for a range of products.  This is known as the Connector Pin 21 issue.
    Take some windex on a que-tip, or perhaps a Windex paper scrub and rub it on the bottom connector port.  Somehow, "something" has gotten on those contacts, and it is pulling the voltage on pin #21 down - so that the iPad "thinks" it's connected to an external speaker - this will disable the internal speaker circuitry, as well as the internal speaker volume controls.
    Do not over-saturate and short out your iPad.  Do not throw it in the sink, do not use the kitchen faucet to flush it out.  A Que-tip with a few drops of Windex (or other gentle cleaner) should work just fine.  Takes all of 30 seconds - and magically, the volume knob appeared and everything worked just fine.

  • My iPad 2 has no sounds or alerts.

    my ipad 2 32 gig has no sounds.  Settings are set with various sounds and volume is 100%.  Can a one help?

    Most likely you turned Mute or Do Not Disturb on. To turn off mute use the side switch or Control Center. To turn Do not Disturb off use the Control Center, look for the cresent moon.

  • IPad 2 has no sound unless I use headphones???

    My iPad has no sound unless I use headphones. Any suggestions? I have checked all settings, etc.

    Have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the iPod and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound. Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

  • My iPod touch has no sound when I play music or use the iPod touch at all.  Yes, the volume in the "sounds" is all the way up.  It has not been dropped or gotten wet.  I turned it off and on.  now what?

    My ipod touch (4th generation) has no sound.  I have turned it off and on.....I have the volume up in the "sounds" area.  When I push the side volume button, there is no image that appears in the screen that shows that I am either raising or lowering the volume.  Do I need to just rest the ipod touch as a new device? Or is there someting else I can try?

    And, now when I do press the side volume buttons, the image appears but with the words' "sound effects."  what does that mean?

  • My iPOD 30 GB classic has no sound.  Screen shows music is playing but cannot hear it.  This happenend last fall, and then in december it started playing again.  Recently it has stopped playing again. What causes this?

    My IPOD 30 GB classic  has no sound.  THis problem started last summer intermittently.  THen in December it started playing again and did so for about 3 months without a problem.  Again, recently the sound stopped coming from the ipod.  I usually use a BOSE docking station that seems to be working fine. THe screen indicates that the songs are playing, but there is no sound, either thru headphones or on the docking station.  I have reset, rebooted and restored and still no sound.  What causes this to happen and is there a fix?

    Which version of iTunes are you using?
    What is the iPod software number as shown in the iTunes Summary windows?
    If both the soundock and the earphone has no sound after the HardReset, then I think you Audio chip has been fried.
    But please try this Hard Reset again
    After charging till full charge, at least 2 hours (preferably 4 hours)
    Toggle the Hold switch, make sure you dont see the red mark when you do the  next step
    Reset the iPod -> Press Menu and Center button simultaneously for about 10 secs till the Apple Logo comes ON
    Then release the buttons
    Select your preferred language.
    Test the sound again.
    Here is the Apple support Article on the 5Rs

    If it doesn't help, try Restore after the above.
    Good Luck!

  • Cant hear music through dock..new ipod, current model

    Hi all, I cant hear any music through any dock I have in the house.  Headphones is fine.  I have four adaptors from old dock to new ipod and none work...what's going on...should I reset?

    Since you already did all that stuff, I don't know what else you can do...  I think there is a mechanical "switch" of some type inside he headphones jack that recognizes when you have something plugged in.  It may be "stuck" in the position when headphones are plugged in, so the iPod thinks there is something there when there is not.  I heard that you can use something non-conductive, like a wooden toothpick, to dislodge it, but I've never had a need to do it myself.
    OR, since all 7th gen nanos are still under warranty, and you know this is not an incompatibility issue because it worked before, maybe you should have it checked by an authorized tech for repair or replacement.  If you have an Apple Store nearby, you can take it to the store's Genius Bar.  You can make a reservation at the store's web page

  • My new iPad mini has lost sound

    I purchased an iPad mini a few weeks ago and the sound was working no problem. All of a sudden it has stopped in apps and music. Checked mute and done a reset but neither have worked?

    Hello Rach42,
    Thank you for the details of the issue you are experiencing with sound on your iPad.  I recommend the following steps for an issue like this (the steps refer to an iPhone but are also applicable to the iPad).  You can skip the steps you have already taken:
    Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, followthese troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, please contact Apple Support.

  • Ipad 2 has no sound, no bar, and side buttons don't work.

    my sound cut out randomly yesterday and I suspected that it was on mute but it wasn't and nothing I try listening to/watching even has a volume control. It's like volume never existed in the first place.
    I Reset the factory settings, had it off for 4 hours, and cleaned the ports....nothing.

    Try a device reset:
    Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
    1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
    2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
    3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

  • IPad 3 has no sound

    I have had my iPad almost a year and a half. I don't play sound everyday but as of yesterday my sound faded out.  I went to the settings screen under general and it's on the mute setting. On the side of the iPad the mute button is not on and the volume button is all the way up. I have blowed into the speaker area and the sound plays and goes away. What could this problem be and hopefully it's something I can solve.

    Did you also try to reset the iPad by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches after installing new software or apps.
    If this does not work, set it up as new device, explained here:
