My pads volume control dent and volume sign stay on to zero volume

my son drop the i pads2 at the volume control button. The volume control got dent into the body. Now, the volume control is at zero volume level and I cannot adjust the volume control to turn up the volume. What can I do to fix it?

It did not work becasue the button is jammed and I finally unjammed it with an army knife. It solves the problem.

No volume control elements and/or devices found

Hi, I recently installed Arch Linux and I followed the tutorials on how to configure it. At this moment I have Gnome installed and it is working fine, I only have one problem.
Every time if I try to access volume control I get the following error:
"No volume control elements and/or devices found"
I'm relatively new to Linux so it might be me just being stupid(Maybe I just don't have the right packages installed) but I've searched the web and I didn't find anything that could help, I also searched this site but there are only a few things about sound problems. I think the problem is caused because Linux is not detecting my sound card (its an on board sound card) or maybe I have not given the command to detect it/activate it. In Google I've found that 'lsmod' and 'lspci' commands are for detecting drivers, so I executed those in my terminal and put them here, I hope this might help fixing my problem.

Try unmounting the volume on your iMac using Disk Utility. Then mount it again. You may need to reboot the laptop or relaunch its Finder process (using the Force Quit window) after remounting the drive on your iMac. Remember that no process may be accessing any files on the drive you plan to unmount, or the unmount will fail. Unmounting and remounting an external drive on my iMac made it become visible on my MacBook Pro after it had disappeared.

Can I get the dent and volume fixed on my ipad 2?

My schools ipad 2 dropped from the bed and now has a dent right on the side where the volume buttons are. The volume is stuck on off/low and they can't move because of the dent and the volume "icon" is stuck on the main screen the whole time i use my ipad. Can i get this fixed if i sent it to apple and for how much amd how long till i get it back?

Aguece-
As school property, it might be best to turn it over to your computer resource people and let them handle it.
If they can show it to an Apple Store Genius, it is possible it will be covered under warranty. Otherwise there is likely a fixed fee to trade it for a replacement.
Repairing it would probably be less expensive than Apple's replacement. I suggest your computer people look for an Apple Authorized Repair Center near you. There may be one in your city. In the US, <United States>. Outside the US, <http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1434>.

I Am not getting any sound at all from my ipad. I have checked the control panel and it says the sound is "on". Any other suggestions? It has worked just fine in the past.

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
Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430 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.

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.

MISSION CONTROL, LAUNCHPAD, and FULL SCREEN APPS (one month later)

I'm pretty good embracing a new thing when it comes along. I downloaded LION the day it come out, which was over a month ago at this point. On that day, I immediately found MISSION CONTROL and LAUNCHPAD both uninituitve and pointless. Unhandy iCandy. And of FULL SCREEN APPS? Not necessary on an iMac anyway.
So I quickly sought out quick solutions to 'fix' these new features. Launchpad and full screen apps have the advantage that they can be simply ignored. This is a good thing. Mission Control, on the other hand, got in the way of a beloved feature for me: what was once SPACES and EXPOSE. That is, I couldn't simply ignore MC because I still needed the previous helpful features in Snow Leopard.
My solution was kind of surprising and eye-opening. It's complicated to explain but I thought I'd share. This conclusion is likely best suited for someone not using a small screened Mac. It turns out that most users (with big enough screens) don't really need Mission Control, Launchpad, Spaces, or Full Screen apps.
At all.
Let's go through that conclusion, one by one:
FULL SCREEN APPS
If you have a relatively big screen (20 iMac for instance), why do you need Safari full screen? Unless you intend to sit across the room from the computer, no reason. And there's lots of bright empty space when you do this. Do you need the Mail app full screen? If you need reading glasses, maybe, but otherwise, nope. I find it's easier just to stretch out an app pretty big and leave it at that.
Full screen apps DO offer a nice feature which is making your desktop, menubar, and dock go BYE BYE. I can see where sometimes this is a useful feature, but typically -- NOPE. Typically I want access to my dock (to switch between open apps without the added step of cancelling full screen first), and typically I want access to my menubar so that I can glance up and see what time it is or find an app menu quickly.
The only feature I find worthy of praise with full screen apps is that they hide the clutter on your desktop. But there's an app in the Mac App Store which makes your desktop icons vanish with the touch of a button (CAMOUFLAGE). I mean, what's the point of a wallpaper if you bury it with desktop clutter or eliminate it with full screen apps? If it's a busy and distracting wallpaper, umm... you picked bad wallpaper.
LAUNCH PAD
LAUNCH PAD offers an iOS experience inside OS X. At first I thought it was completely silly. After a month now, I kinda get why it's there. Kinda.
You see, before LP, to duplicate it's functionality, you'd have to organize folders yourself. Put folders of various apps together. Place them somewhere in the finder heirarchy. Then drag those folders into the part of the dock with the trashcan. Then you could click them open and have access to similarly themed folders of apps. The problem here, of course, is that unless you're a power user, you'll never do this.
So Apple thought, AH-HA, we'll just drag into OS X a paradigm that users already get from iOS. Clumping apps together any way you like them. The misfire, if you ask me, is not allowing users to drag the new iOS folders straight into the dock when finished. That is to say: copies of said organized folders. It's as if Apple's software people have complete contempt for the dock -- and are desperate to have users abandon it.
My problem is that I like having folders in my dock of stuff I need. It just works, as Steve says. Going to the same EXACT place every time I need anything is more intuitive and graceful than ADDING an app called Launchpad that launches you into a different finder altogether. Makes zero sense and THIS is why I say, like FULL SCREEN APPS, LP can basically be abandoned.
By the way: need proof that Apple has complete contempt for the Dock?
MISSION CONTROL/SPACES
A month has passed since MC was introduced and SPACES was eliminated. I dare anyone to tell me why either is needed at all. Before you get iMiffed, humor me for a moment and hear me out.
The notion of SPACES was that it's a neat way to keep like minded open apps together. I totally bought into this, back in the day. So much so that I was iMiffed when it was gone in Lion. But let's look at this closer.
The REASON why we needed SPACES was that we could have WAY too many windows open at once on a Mac. Right? A big mess of windows covering each other up. Suppose you're surfing in Safari but need iTunes? But iTunes is hidden. So what did you do? You went to Spaces as step one, moused over to your iTunes space as move two, and then clicked it as move three. Seems like a great solution until the day you discover that you could simply click on iTunes in the dock as move one and arrive at iTunes. As one step. Period. Really simple, right?
Why have Spaces and apps dance around when you can just click the app you want and be done with it? That's the critical observation to make in order to follow my entire line of reasoning. Sure, it may look really cool and make Windows machines look like junk, but at the end of the day, why add two steps to something you might do 100 times a day -- switching between apps.
So why OH why did Apple add Spaces? Simple: because too many apps were visible at once in one 'desktop' window. So if you can build many new desktops, there might only be one or two in each. Great solution. Right?
Wrong, as it turns out. Because we still have the two extra steps. It's a weak solution. And it's in complete contempt of the Dock, which as it turns out, offers the strongest solution.
The strong solution would be that only one app is visible in your Mac's window at all times. Say you're in Safari. Despite having 12 other apps open, you only see Safari. Your dock tells you that you have other apps open, but nothing else sits in your window BUT the app you're using. So you want to go to iTunes? So click on it in the dock and Safari vanishes and iTunes emerges by itself. No other windows. What could be simpler? (This app is freeware known as ISOLATOR.)
If you download and try ISOLATOR, you'll say, umm, okay, but wait: sometimes I do want more than one window in view. Okay, fine, turn it off then. From the handy menu bar menu. I find that 98% of the time I need ISOLATOR on. Mileage may vary.
So let's recap. One third party software removes distracting desktop clutter, the other removes distracting app windows. Both can be toggled on and off from the menu bar. One is free, one costs $2. These two solutions remove the only real feature of FULL SCREEN APPS and make SPACES and it's newfangled cousin MISSION CONTROL pointless.
Need that last one explained? Well, what's Mission Control but a variant of spaces? To invoke MC and switch to the needed window are those same two annoying steps Spaces added into the mix. Nothing was fixed. Plus, like spaces, you must invest time and energy organizing such spaces.
Why bother? And so I ask again: can somebody who's read and tried the above carefully explain to me why Mission Control, Launchpad, and Full Screen Apps are really needed at all? (Outside of small screened Macs.) Doesn't the dock and these two sharewares together solve most problems?
Am I missing something?

I agree with everything you said about full screen apps, mission control and launchpad. For apps that made sense to run full screen, they already could under SL. Launchpad is totally unnecessary and Mission Control is a mere shadow of Expose and Spaces.
However, I feel you have not given due credit to Spaces. The point of Spaces is to let one organise logical desktops for different tasks, not just a way to reduce the number of windows on display. For example, I have a Space for software development where I run Xcode and the iPhone simulator, a Firefox window showing perhaps documentation or some other websites pertaining to software development, a Finder window that is opened in the folder with my design docs. I have another Space where I have the remote login sessions, yet another Space with another Firefox window where I do general surfing and emailing. I can switch between these spaces using a keyboard shortcut, which is much quicker than having to lift my hand off the keyboard, move it over to the mouse, move the mouse pointer over the Dock, find the app and click on it, only to find that it has switched to the wrong window of the app.
Without Spaces, organisation of my desktop is disrupted each time I want to switch task, whereas Spaces allows me to drop everything I am doing, go and do something completely different for a while and go back to my exact previous environment. I have a 27" iMac so am not short of screen space but I use Spaces extensively. BTW, switching Spaces using a keyboard shortcut is a lot faster on SL than the equivalent on Lion, thanks to the gratuitous screen animation of the latter.

Lenovo S10-3 Fan Control (Linux) and overheating

Good day to everyone.
Let me describe the situation. My Lenovo S10-3 is always hot (even in idle) and uses internal fan very often. It irritates very much because fan is noisy (service found no problem).
Sensors: acpi-tz ~60C, core ~50C (idle).
But even fan is disabled (connector is pulled out from motherboard) temperature becomes not much higher --- approx 65-70C.
Now, the question: is there any way to override BIOS fan control values? (e.g. 55C="Fan on" to 60C="Fan On")
For the S10 series there is program named "Fan Control", but it doesn't work on S10-3 and this program is for MS Windows only. Can anyone give comprehensive ansver/guide how to control fan speed (or on/off temperature values) using native linux tools or special program? It might be very useful for others who experiences the same problem. Thanks.

The heatsink is not connected to the surface of CPU and GPU and this is why you said that disabling the fan doesn't make any difference in the temperature. There are two pieces of thermal pad on the CPU and GPU.They are actually unusable. Remove them. Put thermal paste on the surface of CPU and GPU and heatsink and then put a piece of copper on CPU and GPU. This will make connection between heatsink and surface of CPU. This will make the fan usefull . Do this at your own risk (There is no risk. But use suitable pieces of copper is very important.) Using google will help you find about this issue

My husband bought ipad 6mos ago in dubai for my daughter unluckily the ipad got snatched at redeem but almost damage with the dent and got no power, what should i do?please help

my husband bought ipad 6mos ago in dubai for my daughter unluckily the ipad got snatched at redeem but almost damage with the dent and got no power, what should i do?please help. that i pad is very much important to us,only the box i have here, what should i do if they dont allow to fixed it?

You can try taking the iPad to an authorized service center in the Philippines:
https://locate.apple.com/ph/en/
but since the iPad sold in the UAE is specific to that country (the government there requires that Facetime be blocked), a Philippine service center may not be able to service your iPad. You can ask though. If they cannot help, then you would probably need to send the iPad back to the UAE for service.
