My phone will not vibrate when I switch to vibrate

My iphone does not vibrate when turned to vibrate. How do I rectify that?

For IOS 7.0.6 and IPhones 5S
I spoke with a  Tier 3 Apple Tech yesterday..
I  followed her instructions and did the same on all three of my IPhone 5S  phones.  The problem was immediately resovled and fixed on all of  them.   It has not recurred.
That side button, above the volume controls must be showing orange.
In SETTINGS:
1. Go to Sound,
2. Under VIBRATE - make your choices on whether you want to "Vibrate on Ring"  and/or "Vibrate on Silent."
3. Go to RINGER and ALERTS (right under VIBRATE).
4. Under CHANGE WITH BUTTONS - make sure you're showing the green part of the slider.
Then as long as you have a ringer tone and a vibrate tone selected, exit out of there.
If  your phone's side button (the "silence" button) is showing orange, you  should have no problems and everything working as you want, just as I  did.
If  your phone's side button (the "silence" button) is not in the orange  postion, your status quo before all of the above should remain in  effect.
Again, this "silence" button is directly above the volume buttons on an IPhone 5S. 
Hope this helps.

    Make sure Auto-Lock is not set to Never.
    Goto Settings> General >Auto-lock.
    Auto-Lock is described on page 97 of the iPhone User Guide.

  • Phone will not ring when called

    Hello... I just purchased the iPhone from AT&t and the phone will not ring when called.  I have gone  to settings, sounds, ringtones and all looks good.  Phone sometimes shows a caller is calling but not always and it is not ringing.  Please help>>>

    If the issue is still occuring try a restore just in case.
    If that does not solve the issue..... Take it back to where you purchased it from
    AT&T's DOA (dead on arrival policy) is 30 days from the day of purchase.
    They should be able to replace the iPhone for you as long as you ask them to within 30 days of it being purchased.

    Hello alleyfun
    For issues with your iPhone not charging, check out the troubleshooting below to see if you can get it sorted out and working again.

    Resolving issues
    If your battery doesn't charge, or if your device shows a low-battery image, black screen, or "accessory not supported" alert, follow these steps.
    Inspect the connector at the bottom of the phone:
      Make sure that there are no bent pins in the connector. 
    Make sure that the connector is free from debris.
    If there are bent pins or debris, please contact Apple Support.
    Otherwise, continue troubleshooting.
    Make sure that the outlet you're using works.
    Make sure that the Apple USB cable and Apple USB power adapter work.
    Plug the device in to power and let it charge until your device turns on. This could take between 10 and 30 minutes. If you don't have an Apple USB power adapter, try connecting to a computer's high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be on.
    If the device still exhibits an issue, try turning your device off and then on again while connected to power.
    If the issue persists, please contact Apple Support.

  • My phone will not charge when plugged into charger

    Anybody have a solution when your iphone will charge charge

    If the iPhone does not charge when connected to your computer either, the problem is with the cable being used or with the iPhone. If when using the power adaptor only, the problem is with the power adaptor.

  • My phone will not ring when i get a call i have checked setting and volume is up

    only had phone 1 week have 3 phones 1 itunes acount how do i set up multiple acounts in itune it keeps syncing all of our info

    no, my do not disturb was not on. and on the do not disturb, you still get calls from those in your favorites.  I turned off the vibrate with any call or alert and put the flashing led in the accessible section on. 
    but it should not do that.  it didn't even vibrate.  my girlfriend called me and texted me with phone on table while we were at dinner and nothing.  it went right to vm she said.  tower is full so something is wrong.
    thanks for the idea though.

    Hey ricbow!
    I have a couple of articles for you that can help you troubleshoot this issue with your iPhone. First, here is an article that addresses your question specifically:
    Battery does not charge
    Verify that the outlet being used is working.
    Try another USB power adapter if available.
    If no other USB power adapter is available, try connecting to a high-power USB 2.0 port (not a keyboard). The computer must be turned on and not in sleep or standby mode.
    Try another USB cable if available.
    iPhone and iPod touch: Charging the battery
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1476
    Next, here is an article that will help you if you are having issues related to being unable to turn the phone on:
    Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
    Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
    Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
    Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
    After at least 30 minutes, if:
    The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
    The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
    Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
    If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
    If the display turns on, go to step 4.
    If the display remains black, go to next step.
    Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
    If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.

  • When I get a phone call or text message it will not make the sound. Just vibrate. But the switch is on normal. When I change it to vibrate the volume thing will not show. Nor will my up volume up key work. Is there any way to fix it?

    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.
