My playback volume on 10 is SOOOOOO low! What happened??

10.4.1.10 - My playback volume is abysmal. Other things playback with plenty of volume. I crank up my PC volume, ITunes volume, my external speakers volume and it's just poo! Websites with sound are great. It's not just new music, it's all music. That "sound check" button can be on, or off, no difference... I can crank up the volume on each song, no difference...UGH!! What happened and how the heck do I fix it?! I mean really?!?! This is no good, no good I say!

Figured it out...
In the bottm right where you choose multiple speakers, at some point, I modified the computer output to be lower... that setting stuck and wasnt 'sliding.
This is a default in the design for sure. But am thrilled I figured it out!

Playback volume for recent imports is low.

I have been digitizing my old LPs. I have my turntable plugged into a Y adapter and then plugged into the line input of my computer. I have the sound recorder level at 100%. I am copying them as wma files and then importing them into iTunes. It is a somewhat tedious project but it has been a hoot to hear some of these that haven't seen the light of day for 30 years. When I play back the wma file it sound ok. I've burned a couple of cds from the wma files and they sound ok. When I play any of them back in itunes, on the computer or the ipod, I need to turn up the volume so high that I get a lot of white noise hiss. In the car or the house, doesn't matter. I have looked through help and tried some things but they haven't made much difference. I don't know what to do next to be able to listen to this music. I also have lots more LPs to do.

$30.00 for Ivolume is not an option.

Sound recorder playback volume low ?

I have a dv6000 notebook , for the first time ever I tried recording sound using windows movie maker to add ''narration'' but the playback volume is very low .
I tried the windows '' sound recorder '' and got the same result .
I've been through all the standard adjustments and settings and have gone into ' control panel ' and adjusted 'levels' and everything else with no success .
When I record a video using the sound on my camera the volume is fine - it's just the mic sound that is low whether I use an external mic or the built in ones .

I have the same issue and I see no responses to your inquiry.. This Windows help menu leaves much to be desired. Im sure I will one day figure out how to work this version that I had no clue I was buying bc it should come with a warning label.. its completely different and agonizing and great help menu lovely.. Im sorry to be so negative wish I could help.. Ill sit here all night till I figure it out and then post an option on how to adjust the recording volume.. Unreal..

Ipod playback volume

I use my ipod for Group Fitness classes & always play it at Max volume & then use the stereo system that I hook up to to adjust volume.
I've noticed that the playback volume is not as loud as it used to be even though my ipod is on max & so is the stereo system.
Is there a way to increase the volume on output when I playback?
I also have noticed that some songs thatI purchase from iTunes may not play as loud as others.
HELP!

Has the *Volume limit* been set to less than maximum? You can tell this quickly by turning the volume on the *Now Playing* screen to maximum and if the speaker icon stays as a speaker, the answer is no, it isn't. But if the speaker icon changes to a padlock when you get to "maximum", then the *Volume Limit* _is set below maximum._
On the iPod, go into *Settings/Volume Limit.* The small up-arrow under the scroll bar is the "limit setting". Turn the scroll wheel to increase the maximum and press the centre button to set it. The bar will return to a lower level. Don't worry about that - it's supposed to, the arrow is what you need to look at. +(Do not press the play button to set the volume limit unless you are going to remember the combination that you will be asked to set as well.)+
Why/how did this happen you ask? I don't know, but as I confirmed my instructions to you (I have an iPod Touch as well, so I get confused +at my age)+ my maximum volume reduced when I came out of the menu - something I realised by turning to max on the *Now Playing* screen and seeing the padlock, which I hadn't seen before!

Why is the volume of my phone so low in calls ?

Why is the volume of my phone so low in calls ?

Hey there Claudia,
It sounds like the audio from the receiver is low when you are talking on the phone. I found this article for you to help troubleshoot this issue named:
iPhone: Receiver and call audio quality issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5196
Receiver
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
Increase the volume during the call.
Make sure nothing is blocking the receiver. If you're using a protective case or display film, remove it and try again.
Make sure nothing is plugged into the headphone jack or the dock connector.
Check the receiver opening to see if it is clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush.
Try another location with better signal. If the audio issue happens only when on a call, it could be due to the location.
If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or a car kit, try turning off Bluetooth on your device. Learn more about troubleshooting Bluetooth connections.
Restart the iPhone.
Make sure your device is up to date.
If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, contact Apple Support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

Playback volume variation

My songs playback at different volumes from each other so I find myself constantly having to adjust the volume setting (and occasionally going deaf). Is there a way to fix this from some menu?
Thank You

You can adjust the playback volume preference for a tune by getting the information and adjusting the playback volume in the the options. If you choose multiple files at once and get info it will adjust them all.

Podcast Playback Volume

Have recently really got into Podcasts, great time killer to and from work...however on the whole whenever they play back, they are so quiet. So, for example, trying to listen to Sunday Supplement on the train or bus is impossible due to background noise.....even at full volume....
Please help!!

If you right-click the podcast in itunes, and then select "Get Info", under "Options", you can adjust playback volume. Have you adjusted the volume here, coupled with the volume controls on the phone?

Set playback volume check? Where can I find this

Where can I find the preferences section to Set playback volume check?

Hello Kevin57013,
It sounds like you are wanting to reduce the maximum volume of your phone or enable Sound Check. These are in the Music Settings named Volume Limit, and Sound Check respectively:
Music settings
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iphf2d8534c
Sound Check (to normalize the volume level of your audio content)
Set the volume limit. Go Settings > Music > Volume Limit.

Volume slider and playback volume...

Hi
I recently purchased a 120GB Classic and, due to the fact that I don't hear too well, you won't be surprised I find it too quiet (if only I'd known about the 'cap' beforehand so I could have got one from the USA...).
I bought a half-decent pair of headphones, which has helped, and also got an inline amp (which increases the 'noise' as much as the volume, so I'm not that sold on it...). Anyway, I had the idea of bumping up the volume on iTunes and re-syncing all the songs, so I did.
I wasn't sure what the effect on quality would be, so I knocked it up about halfway and resynced the iPod. Which took forever.
I'm pretty sure the iPod is now louder, but I may be imagining it - I'm tempted to put the bar all the way to the top, but if the increase is purely psychological it seems a waste of time (and it does take time!).
So, does the volume slider affect iPod playback volume?
Thanks for reading, and thanks again if you can help.

So, does the volume slider affect iPod playback volume?
No. If you increase the volume of a song in iTunes, all you do is make it so that the maximum volume on the iPod is reached before the volume bar is at full.
For example, if you increase a track's volume in iTunes by +100% then when it's on the iPod you will find that that track hits it's maximum volume level at about half volume, and turning the iPod up to full volume will not increase the volume any higher after this point. A track which has not had it's volume altered in iTunes will reach exactly the same sound level, although of course you will need to turn the volume level of the iPod to full in this instance.

Playback volume problems on burned CDs

When I burn CD's from playlists on my iBook and play them on a home CD player (not iPod), the song playback volumes vary greatly from song to song. Some are very loud and some very soft. Is there any way to control this problem so all songs are about the same volume? The sound check option and going to "file/get info/changing volumes" on individual songs does not help.

The Sound Check option (Playback) and changing the volumes in 'Get info' does not adjust the volume when burning.
Ticking the checkbox 'Use Sound Check' in 'Preferences>Advanced>Burning' (for Audio CD only) might do the trick, but I don't find it satisfactory for me.
You can adjust the volume (gain) for each individual track by using the 'Normalize' function in various audio editors (Audacity, Sound Studio etc.).
This is a lengthy procedure, but it can be a solution when only a few tracks need adjusting. The tracks are permanently altered, unless you save it as a copy.
Maybe there are similar programs, but what really does a good job for me, is 'Jam' (roxio.com). You can select all or selected tracks to 'normalize' them.
Adjusting gain for each track individually is also possible, if some songs need to be louder or softer.
The adjustments will not alter the tracks, but are saved in a separate file.

The volume of Youtube is extremely low, even maxed out.

I would say that for the past two-three weeks I've been having a problem where my Youtube volume in Firefox is extremely low. In order to hear anything really I have to have my Windows volume at 100%, my speaker volume maxed out, and Youtube volume at its highest.
I Watched the exact same youtube video in chrome and its so LOUD! I had to turn my windows volume to 50% and my speakers way down and it was still louder than Firefox. I searched for similar issues and found one that exactly matched my problem, I even followed the suggested steps to fixing the issue at hand but nothing has worked.
Steps completed so far:
-Fresh install
-Cleared cookies, cache, site preferences and offline data
-re installing flash
-Cleared flash cookies and settings
I dont want to abandon firefox but this issue is extremely annoying and there doesnt seem to be a logical fix available. Any help is appreciated.

Philip,
I want to thank you for your suggestion. There was an issue where the volume for the Firefox application was turned down extremely low resulting in the issue at hand. I have since corrected this thanks to you!
James,
I appreciate you trying to help but I explained in my question that I had the YouTube volume up to 100%.

IPod Nana - Playback Volume Limit - Changes Locked

I have been having problems with the Playback Volume limit. I set it at 50%, but then it was playing too softly. When I went to adjust, there was no Menu option to modify this. I saw another post that said to press and hold the Menu + center button, until the apple appears. This brought back the menu option.
However, I do not remember putting a password (4 digit number) on it. I tried the combo I use for my iPhone, and I guess I used something different.
Does anyone know how to erase the Volume Limit Combination Lock?
Thanks!

Try 0000 as the combination.
If that does not work, you will need to Restore it to reset the combo.
