My ipad does not sound without headphones

my ipad stopped ringing for no reason , only works if I hold headphones

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 have the iPad Air 2 - you can only control system sounds from the control center since there is no side switch.
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.

  • HT4085 I has a problem and I am not able to solve that when I use sound effect it is showed only headphone even I did not installing the headphone I has a problem and I am not able to solve that I am. Not able to hear the sound without headphone please he

    I has a problem and I am not able to solve that when I use sound effect it is showed only headphone even I did not installing the headphone I has a problem and I am not able to solve that I am. Not able to hear the sound without headphone please help guys

    Sounds to me like a hardware issue or maybe something is stuck in the headphone jack. When you plug in headphones, the jack in the iPad is switched to play only through the headphones and not the iPad's speakers. Sounds like either the jack is faulty or there is something stuck in the headphone jack. Get a flashlight & look inside the jack for anything that looks like it doesn't belong in there.
    Regardless, I'd take it in to an Apple Store if you have one nearby to have it checked.
    EDIT: "Ocean20" had an excellent suggestion above. While doing that, you may also want to rotate/twist the plug in the jack back & forth a few times as well. Dirty contacts can often times be cleared by doing this.

  • My iPad does not have sound when on the Internet, including YouTube, but does have sound with iTunes and other apps.  How can I correct this?

    My iPad does not have sound when on the Internet, including YouTube, but does have sound with iTunes and other apps.  How can I correct this?

    If you are sure that you have sound in other apps - and if you can still hear keyboard clicks and get notifications, then system sounds are not muted. Try this and see if it works.
    Close all apps completely and reboot the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the recents tray will appear with all of your recent 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 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    What do you mean 'does not ship unless he closed' ? What are you trying to do with your iPad, and what happens when you do it ?
    If your computer's iTunes isn't recognising the iPad then do you have the latest version of iTunes installed on your computer ?

  • Sound do not works without headphones

    Sound only works with headphone. How I can restore sound without headphones in ipad3? Qazi.sohail

    With the headphones unplugged, does adjusting the volume bring up the volume indicator with "ringer (headphones)"?  If so, try searching for article TS1630 on apple's site or google.  It may have some debris in the headphone jack that could be removed by plugging and unplugging the headphones about 7 times.  If that doesn't work, keep following TS1630.

  • IPad does not find iphone hotspot

    I have iPhone 4S and an  iPad2 WiFi both running iOS5.1
    I use the iPhone hotspot function to get the iPad on the internett when not at home. This workes great, I had to type inn the WiFi password the first time i connected the iPad, later the iPad connects without having to type the password.
    Since iOS 5.1 the iPad sometimes have problems finding the iPhone hotspot. I turn on the "shared internet" function of the iPhone, open the smartcover on the iPad, but it does not connect (the two attached rings does not appear). If I go to Settings>WiFi on the iPad, the iPhone WiFi hotspot does not show up, the iPad just keeps searching. Then after a little while, the iPad suddently connect, ususally after I open Safari or Mail or something on the iPad. If I then close the smartcover, and leave the iPhone hotspot on, reopen the iPad smart cover, again the iPad does not seem to find the WiFi hotspot. I have to turn the hotspot function off/on on the iPhone, and then after a little while it works. When first connected,everything works OK.
    Is this a problem with iOS 5.1?

    Just going to the hotspot screen on the iPhone puts it in host mode where it's easy for the iPad to find it.
    You lose some speed due to bandwidth bottleneck of Bluetooth, but I found bluetooth tethering had fewer headaches and was more persistent.

  • My ipad does not appear in itunes

    my ipad does not appear in itunes but the computer recognises it

    I had the same problem. found a dozen different solutions in various forums. None worked.
    One of the official responses TS1538 came very close and sounded promising. I found that the usb device did not appear in device manager. The ipad appeared only in the imaging devices.
    The instructions were to right click on the entry in images and update the driver, pointing at
    program files\common files\apple\drivers\usbaapl.inf.
    This told me that my device was not found in the driver. date on the files was 2009. date on the files in another pc which worked was 2011.
    I had already re-installed itunes, which I thought should install the necessary driver.
    Decided to fool it. copied the files in the above folder and then deleted them. Then re-installed itunes again.
    Fixed.
    So why doesnt itunes installation over-ride the old files?
    Why doesnt apple tell us about this fix.
    Why did I buy and apple?

  • HT4972 How come my iPad does not have software update in the settings?

    Help, my iPad does not have software update available in settings, how do I update?

    The option to update without the computer (Over the air) was made available with iOS 5. If your iDevice is using a version of iOS lower than 5, you will need to use iTunes on your syncing computer to perform the upgrade. Use the Apple link below as a guide for the upgrade.

  • TS3899 My ipad does not communicate with iphone on one of my email accounts and will not remove deleted emails that are done on the iphone and vice versa, what setting should be changed?

    My ipad does not communicate with my iphone on one of my email accounts and will not remove deleted emails that are done on the iphone and vice versa, what setting needs to be changed?

    It's my understanding that an iPhone can only sync with one computer. You need to choose one computer. Sounds like it syncs at work, but not at home. If you want to just sync it at home, then you have to make sure the home computer has all the info that you want on it, like music etc. Then you have to deauthorize the work computer for it to sync at home. When you connect it will ask if you want to set up as a new iPhone or restore from backup. If you don't have a backup on the home computer then either way you will be wiped clean. So any photos, contacts, notes etc you have will be erased. You would need to backup or copy your photos from your iPhone. When you connect it to your home computer, it will give you that popup message to open your iPhone files. Then you can copy those photos and save them onto your computer and sync them back in through iTunes.
    For your contacts, do you use any type of address book? If so you'll want to back that up and then transfer to your home computer. For notes, you can just email those to yourself and then save that email. I use MobileMe so the contacts issue is easily resolved.

  • I am having trouble with my iPad, i can start it, but the iPad does not work. i tried to use the power and home button at the same time, the apple logo appears, but the iPad does not work. What am I suppose to do?

    After the Apple logo appears, what happens then? Can you hear any sounds or if you tap on the screen, does it seem like apps can open or are you just seeing a black screen? You might have a hardware problem, but you can try restoring the software and see what happens.

  • IPad does not turn back on

    I turned off my IPad and plugged in to recharge for the night.  In the morning, the IPad will not turn on and I have tried multiple reboots holding the sleep/home button without success.  I have plugged into a desktop to connect to Itunes and the IPad does not appear on the computer.  Should I try anything else before heading to the Apple Store?

    Is the battery empty ?  It can take up to 15 minutes of charging from empty before it will respond. Try charging it for a while if it might have been nearly empty and then retry a reset : pressing and holding both the sleep and home buttons for 10 to 15 seconds.
