My volume won't work on some of my apps but works on podcasts and my music. What is happening
When I use my apps like I funny and tapped out or want to watch video clips there is no sound, but I can listen to my music and podcasts without any problem. I have tried restarting my iPad several times and it still does not work. Any suggestions?
Your 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. 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 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.

My volume won't work on my iphone 3gs
Please help... I took my iPhone 3GS to the Genius Bar on Monday because my volume won't work at all on any part of my phone. They said it was dust in my ports and they blew some air in the ports and it worked again. Unfortunately, it didn't last. I certainly didn't get my phone dusty. Any ideas what is going on? Thanks
You can go again Genius Bar and tell them about previous repair attempt, they can check if still same problem, or it was something else.

My volume won't work on mac pro
My volume won't work on my Macbook Pro. The button works and I can see the volume being turned up/down, but no sound comes out! I tried everything in the volume section of System Preferences. Does anybody know what I can do? Thanks!
Try a PRAM reset:
If no success, look in the audio output port. If there is a red light, the internal switch is stuck. Insert the headphione jack a few times and see if that will trip the switch.

i did the ios5.1.1 update and now the volume on my phone doesn't appear when i push the buttons on the side of the phone. occasionally i see them, but my speakers won't work for playing videos or music either. it does ring when i receive a call though, and for my alarm. ne1 else had these problems?
I have had this happen to me on 3GS, 4 and 4s. Usually the solution is one of the following:
1- If your volume indicator says headphones even though they are not plugged in, then:
Stick your headphones into the headphone jack and then remove quickly.
2. If that does not work Power your phone off. Then when restarting Reset the phone by pressing the home button and the power button at the same time until the apple logo appears.
3. Make sure you have not chosen to send audio to an Airplay device such as Apple Tv.
Hope one of these works for you -
My volume works for notifications and not music, help!
My volume won't work, but my alarm and notifications will :/
Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!

I changed my Apple ID to my new email address successfully for the iTunes and App store but it won't work for iCloud and it won't recognize my password. I read that this can't be done. How am I supposed to get into iCloud? I plan on getting rid of my old email address which is my old Apple ID so how is that going to work?
Same question Wish someone had replied!
I changed my Apple ID to my new email and now cannot find any way to access icloud. Unfortunately I had allowed icloud to hijack my airbook files, so of course I am afraid I will lose them tomorrow when I exchange my iphone for a new one and cannot keep an icloud account i cannot access. What a poor sync system! Really atypical for apple! -
Help please. Extended display won't work on MBP and AOC 20" 1600 x 900 60HZ monitor. Mirror display does. I've a mini dvd to vga converter cable. Should this work?
I have the same mini display port adapter and Belkin DVI-HDMI cable (but a Panasonic 42" Plasma HDTV) so just set this up on it to see if I could duplicate your problem, unfortunately for you (but good for me) I can't.
I connected the adapter+HDMI cable before switching the HDTV on and then powered up the MBP. It (the HDTV) came up with my background right away (it's set at Mirror not extended Desktop) and when I run System Preferences/Displays get the following. Sorry but all I can confirm is that adapter+cable combination should work ...
Try doing a Parameter RAM reset - hold down command/option/p/r keys at start up and wait for three chimes before releasing the keys? -

Some of my apps on both my iPad and iPod Touch no longer have sound. Others still do. I checked general settings. Any other ideas of how to fix this?
If you lose 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.

How do I get refund on some of apple app that I have downloaded and didn't liked it.
How do I get refund on some of apple apps that I have downloaded and didn't need it?
Apple will only refund you if there is a problem with the app. i.e., works incorrectly, crashed, or doesn't download. But not simply because you don't like it.
Out of curiosity, which app(s)? -
i got iphone 5S and i live in pakistan .. my itunes is not working in country when i open it , it shows two columns of podcast and itunes U what to do?
You won't be able to download music, films or TV programmes from iTunes until either they are available in Pakistan (which will need a sufficient number of content providers to grant Apple a license to sell their content there), or you move to a country where they are sold. Are there other music purchase downloads sites in Pakistan ? You can also copy your own music CDs via your computer's iTunes (so you could buy CDs and copy them) and sync them to your phone.

the screen on my iPhone is frozen and I can access apps through Siri. The touch screen works within the apps but not in the home screen. What do I do?
Have you tried a reset which is similar to a computer restart and is done by pressing and holding the home button and the sleep/wake or on/off button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo and then release?

I upraded some of my apps on my ipod touch, and one of them, my candy crush app is messed up, couldn't connect to facebook. tried re-installing it, same thing happened. now i have to start from the begining again, which really *****!! please help!!
There is nothing wrong with the OS update.
Delete ALL your email accounts.
Restart Playbook
Put the accounts back and ensure they are all set with PUSH ON. Manual (push off) will burn battery.
Similarly delete your wifi connections and add back when required.
Turn off wifi is not connected to wifi.
Any "hunting for connection" in email or wifi will burn up battery.
