No audio AND no volume adjustment available. Why?

Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. 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.

Strange Audio Glitch With Volume Adjust

When I hit the volume keys on the keyboard to adjust the volume, there is a delay that I do not get when doing the same with my desktop system. There is also an audible click on the audio when the volume is adjusted. If I go to audio preferences and then use the same keys to adjust the volume, the click and delay goes away. When I leave audio preferences the problem is still fixed for at least awhile. Rebooting brings back the annoying click and delay and I think it comes back after awhile whether the computer is rebooted or not. I have experimented with turning the audible response to volume changes on and off and this has no effect on the problem other than the problem goes away because sound preferences have been opened to make the change and not because of what the setting is. I think the problem must have to do with the sound source being opened and closed whether the audible response is set or not. When sound preferences are opened, it's as if a different routine is being used when the volume keys are pressed and it continues to be used until that piece of code gets purged from RAM memory when it hasn't been used for awhile.
I'm just curious if anyone has this issue as well.

Ah, the ever popular "feature" explanation.
I can accept that it is a result of attempting to implement a feature but the way it is working on my machine indicates that this "feature" is poorly implemented.
Well designed computer programming anticipates users actions as best as possible and makes things work as best for the current situation. Most Apple programming is a perfect example of how to do this correctly. When I hit a key to change the volume, it's reasonable to think that there's a good chance that I will hit the key again because once might not change the volume sufficiently enough. Instead, what I get is the sound channel turning on and off for every key press, no matter how quickly I press the key. This happens even if I do not have an audible response selected. Should sound be turned on when there isn't any sound to be played? I don't think this should be necessary for changing the volume if you do not have an audible response set.
Now this is how I feel this should actually work:
Sound, when running from battery should be handled like a disk drive or a screen. If it is not used for a set amount of time then it should be turned off and turned back on only if it is needed again. Hitting the volume keys when no sound is playing might set a shorter time limit before the sound is turned off but the "on" time should be sufficiently long enough to hit a volume key again without requiring the sound to be turned off and on on each press.
Remember how I mentioned that the sound problem would go away, maybe even for days if I opened the sound preferences? This would indicate to me that under this situation, the sound is not actually being turned off after a reasonable amount of time. Under certain situations, it doesn't stay on long enough and others, it stays on too long. If I am right about it happening during sound playback, then it's really messing up by turning off and then on when it clearly doesn't need to.
I am pretty sure that I have had the issue while plugged into power and at least once while iTunes was playing. Certainly when sound is already playing this shouldn't occur. For some reason, I can't seem to get the issue to surface again, but I think that it just might take some time after rebooting sometimes for it to happen again. I will post more on this when it happens again.

Pulse Audio and Wine Volume Levels

I have just installed Pulse Audio and I am having problems with Wine audio levels changing depending on other software. If I run a Wine program on its own it will play audio but will not appear in the Pulse Volume Control. If I then open a Linux application such as Firefox and play audio, the Wine program's audio will set itself to the lowest volume track present. For example if only Firefox is running it will follow Firefox's volume dial.
In other words, Wine doesn't have its own PulseAudio volume dial, it will 'latch onto' any other track present.
$ pacman -Q | grep pulse
lib32-libpulse 5.0-1
libcanberra-pulse 0.30-4
libpulse 5.0-1
pulseaudio 5.0-1
pulseaudio-alsa 2-2
Has anyone heard of this happening before? Any suggestions on how to fix it?
EDIT:
Apologies this should be in the multimedia section
EDIT:
I have finally solved this problem by configuring Pulseaudio to use flat volumes as explained here, (the actual problem is outlined in the section after).

[SOLVED]HDMI audio and gnome volume applet issues

Hi all,
After setting up Arch without too many problems came the real pain in the ass: HDMI audio over a Asus NVIDIA GeForce EN210....
Eventually I got everything to work with the help of the ASLA en Pulse wiki pages, but I found the last piece of the puzzle here:
http://wiki.xbmc.org/index.php?title=HO … ,_or_GT240
Maybe this is useful for others too.
The only problem I have now is that the ALSA deamon fails to load. I found this in the boot log file (/var/log/boot):
Thu Apr 12 13:54:19 2012: :: Restoring ALSA Levels [BUSY] Found hardware: "HDA-Intel" "Nvidia GPU 0b HDMI/DP" "HDA:10de000b,10de0101,00100200" "0x1043" "0x8343"
Thu Apr 12 13:54:20 2012: Hardware is initialized using a generic method
Does this mean I don't need the alsa deamon anymore? Sound still works normally after boot but a strange thing is that I can turn up and down the volume with the gnome shell volume applet but the volume of media applications like vlc do not react. Same problem with flash video's like youtube. I do hear the "blip" sound from the applet.
Does anyone have ideas how to fix this?

Weird volume adjustment

hi,
i had the "sound check" turned on, so he check the songs, did what he did, but now i've turned it off, and i still have volume modifyer in songs (the volume in summary tab, and the volume adjustment is on none)
how do i reset all the volume modifs?
thanks

itunes 7

that was the first logic thing to do, but nothing happend, eaven select all put +100, then reput none

HT201401 Volume buttons are not working and the volume option is not showing up on screen for me to be able to adjust it. My silent switch is not turned on.

I went to turn my app on that plays my music at night while I sleep and the volume buttons on the side of the phone don't work. The volume slider isn't even showing up on the screen in any of the apps that have audio available. I have restarted the phone numerous times, looked in settings, made sure my phone is up to date, and made sure that the "silent switch" is on. I checked to make sure that I can hear the alarms I have set go off, but the volume isn't working any where else on the phone.

Do the basic troubleshooting steps: Restart, Reset, Restore using a backup, Restore as new. (See User Guide, Appendix B)

My keyboard clicks and ringer volume have disappeared. I have tried plugging in the head phones many times, blowing air in the headphone jack, credit card in the charger jack, everything on you tube basically! To no avail! Any suggestions?

Main menu audio volume adjustment issue

Under the Disc Menus tab, using the Ladybug menu template that comes with Premiere Pro Elements 9 and chose an audio clip to use as intro music. I need to adjust that tracks volume to better match the core video/audio levels. Ideas? The audio mixer does not show that track.
Thanks in advance!

Welcome to the forum.
I think that Audacity, or similar, is the easiest way to handle this.
As I am usually doing DD 5.1 SS, for my Projects and for my Menus, I just create a Menu Sequence in PrPro, and edit my Audio (or perhaps Video too, if I have a Motion Background on the Menu), but as PrE does not have Sequences, one would have to create a New Project, to do that. Yes, Audacity would be much easier.
Good luck,
Hunt
PS - even the full-featured Adobe authoring app., Encore, needs to have the Audio's Volume adjusted outside of the authoring program.

'Volume Adjustment' effect is different between iTunes and iPod

I spent weeks using the 'Volume Adjustment' option on hundreds of quieter albums in my library to consistently match the louder volume levels of newer albums of my library. I wanted playback to be even across the board of my entire library. Some needed a small percentage of increase, some needed the maximum. To my ears' content, I played each adjusted album back in iTunes through powered monitors and studio headphones to make sure each album was just right.
To my horror, after I sync my new library to my newly wiped and restored 5th gen. iPod Classic, the 'Volume Adjustment' effect is multiplied and the playback on anything that was adjusted is ridiculously louder than even the originally loudest album I have. I am also using the same headphones with my iPod that I used to adjust the albums in iTunes on my MacBook Pro.
So pretty much my question is, "what the ****?!"
In iTunes, the 'Volume Adjustment' is great, and playback is perfectly even across the board while I am actually playing back in iTunes. Either I need to go back and change each and every album I adjusted to a much lower adjustment and have to deal with quiet playback in iTunes once again or I can get ear-blasted by my iPod during track changes yet still enjoy the even sound levels in iTunes. I playback in iTunes as frequently as I use my iPod.
There is no grey area and I am sad about this :'( Why is there no consistency? Has this been discussed before or does anyone have a solution?
Thanks for your time,

i don't own a classic but you might want to see if you find a +sound check+ setting on it. you may want to enable sound check in iTunes and the iPod.
additionally, you might want to check out iVolume.

If this doesn't resolve it you most likely have a hardware failure. Fortunately, your phone is in warranty, so if you take it to an Apple store they will replace it.

Clip inspector in imovie not working properly - when I select a picture (in project library) - and select clip adjustment it tells me that I need to select one or more clips to view Inspector tools and when I select a movie clip and then click on audio adjustments the audio adjustment appears as a speaker icon and I don't know how to get to the various audio options? It was working fine one minute and then I seemed to lose the functionality. Also editing a photo in a photo or getting rid of ken burns effect etc does not seem to work. help

Can anyone shed any light on this as I am having the same problem? One minute it works fine, the next you get the error message above.
Many thanks.

Why can't Adobe Premiere Pro CC 2014 Time remap Audio and Video together?

In case you didn't notice, my question is WHY. I don't know why Premiere Pro can't do this. From what I understand at the moment, the only way to time-remap audio in any way shape or form using Adobe software is through Adobe After Effects, which my computer has absolutely no chance of running ever. I know how to do regular stretching of audio in both Audition and Premiere Pro, but apparently I can't time-remap audio using either of these programs.
So why can't Adobe Premiere Pro time remap audio along with the video? What's the reason that it can't? It's a massive disappointment and would be very impressive to see accomplished in the future. If it's possible to time remap audio and video together in After Effects, that's great and all, except for the fact that I can't use that program. Why can't it be done in Premiere Pro and will it ever be possible in Premiere Pro?
Also, will time remapping audio become possible in Audition someday?

That sounds like a great idea. File a Feature Request:

I have been sampling new imported drum loops. And if I adjust region to song or time strecth it updates the audio file in the library. How to stop this? I lost the original setting to one loop. automatically doing it ??

This "original file cannot be found" thing happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes .
