No sound on YouTube or text alerts since ios8

I get no sound from YouTube when clicking from links in Facebook or emails.
Text alert tones also stop working randomly and it won't play alert tones in sounds settings. Ring tones are fine and I'm not using custom tones.
Sure a reboot fixes it temporarily but it stops working again after a few messages.
Any one else having this trouble?
iOS 8.0.2 iPhone 5

Hi,
Thanks for posting in Microsoft TechNet forums.
Did it work before? When did this issue begin to occur? If it works before, system restore can be under consideration.
Please go into Internet Options>Advanced tab scroll down to Multimedia and make sure that "Play sounds in web pages" is check, click Apply/OK.
If it is already checked, uncheck it, click Apply/OK then go back and recheck it, click Apply/OK.
Meanwhile, does the sound work in the following website?
http://www.microsoft.com/Windows/windows-7/videos-tours.aspx
Meanwhile, it seems you have two output devices, please go to control panel-> sound->under playback tab, set the other device as default to test
the issue.
Best Regards
Magon Liu

  • Sound not working for text alert just vibrate

    Sound not working for text alert just vibrate and no sound on keyboard

    I'm having the same problem, it just started today (11/13/2012). 
    Settings > Sounds> Text Tone = Tri-tone
    Lock Sounds = On
    Keyboard Clicks = Off
    The mute button is also in the correct place (ring, not mute).

  • Bluetooth mode prevents notification sounds for all items (Text, Alerts, Mail, etc.), except the phone ringer?

    It seems that the use of the iPhone 4 Bluetooth to a phone headset (In this case a hearing aid 'streamer') prevents all other phone option sounds (Text, Alerts, mail, etc.) from working. Is it normal that there is a conflict between the iPhone 4 Bluetooth use and other phone item sound notifications?

    No, iOS does not offer that option. You can offer Apple feedback here: http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • IPhone 6 recently stopped ringing and making text alert sounds since most recent upgrade to ios 8.1.1, has anyone experienced this, and if so, how did you correct?

    AFter recent upgrade to ios 8.1.1, my iphone 6 no longer makes text alert sounds and ring does not sound for incoming calls (except on car bluetooth).  has anyone experienced this, and if so, how did you correct?

    I had the same problem until tonight. Played with ring tones, do not disturb, volume, and everything else posted. What I found is that when you go to sounds/text tone, there are two types of tones in the scrolling menu. The top set of tones are for alert tones and the bottom set are ringtones. They are separated by a gray bar that states their purpose. Many of the tones are the same name. You need to set your text alert in the Ringtones and reminders, alarms, and such in alerts. The weird thing about this menu is when you go to sounds/ringtone the menu is reversed. Mine works in locked mode or unlocked now. I have an Iphone 6 8.1.2. My problem started after my latest OS upgrade. Hope this helps.

  • Samsung note 3 is not giving audible alerts for all my text messages since the 4.4.4 update.

    Samsung note 3 is not giving audible alerts for all my text messages since the 4.4.4 update.  I get an audible tone about 3/4 of the time.  Thinking a conversation is over I come back 45 minutes later to find another text I didn't know came in.  I've restarted my phone and checked my message settings.   Any ideas?  Factory reset is not an option!

    I'd try going back into the Text Message settings. In Sound setting, work the setting from None to an alert. Then in Vibrate put a check in the box then uncheck. Just to see if that will free it up, could be a possible corruption with the new software update?

  • IOS 7.1 on iPhone 4 causing sound issues - no text alert, lock sounds, lack of vibration (sometimes) - anyone else got this issue?

    Basically pretty much ever since I updated to iOS 7.1, I'm no longer getting my text alert sound for SMS or iMessage, the lock sound no longer plays and there is sometimes a lack of vibration, I can assure the sound is up on high, it is not on silent or do not disturb - though i have it on this sometimes. Has anyone else got this issue? As it is very irritating and needs to be fixed.

    If you update ur iphone 4 and lost all those features, the only way you can fix it is with itunes, plug in to ur computer and restore the IOS , before do that make sure to back up all ur info on icloud and ur computer.
    Good luck

  • My 4s lost sound on text alerts, music and keyboard clicks but still plays ringtones and alarm sounds.  Took to Genius Bar but they said never seen anything like it and to buy a new one.  Help please, need fix to get all sound back!

    Lost partial sound, speakers work but keyboard, music, text alert does not except on headphones, please help!

    If you've had it for less than a year, then it's still under warranty.  Take it to an Apple store or an authorized service facility.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1434

  • IPhone 5S not receiving sound or vibrate text alerts from Android phones

    I have recently noticed on my iPhone 5s, that when someone with an android phone sends a text message to me, there is no sound alert or vibration, even though both are set to on position.  The problem does not occur for calls or email alerts, only text alerts and it does not happen when another iPhone user texts me.  I am fully updated to iOS 8.1.2, I have restarted my phone.  Any thoughts as to why only the texting alerts are affected and only from Android users?  Thanks!

    I think we do in fact have a similar problem.  When my phone is in sleep mode is when it doesn't always produce phone rings and never gives text alerts. I just verified this by having my assistant call and text me from her Verizon Galaxy phone and call me from our office land line.  From sleep mode my iPhone didn't ring with the first phone call from her cell or her first text message, but the text message did arrive.   She said my phone went straight to voicemail on the call and the text showed as delivered.  The land line test call did ring my iPhone.  A second attempt to call my sleeping iPhone from her cell phone did result in my phone ringing.  A second text attempt had the same result as the first, no alert, but the text did arrive.  A third text attempt with my phone not in sleep mode resulted in a text alert with the arrival of the text.  I did the same test, calling and texting my phone, with another iPhone 5s.  My phone rang from sleep mode but didn't give a text alert. 
    So, it would seem that this is mostly a text alert issue only when the phone is in sleep mode.  I'm going to review all my settings and failing finding something there that solves the problem I may call AT&T (if I am feeling patient).  I'll report back if I find a solution.

  • I have no sound alerts on my iphone5. My software is up to date. I can hear on a call but I have no text alerts, no ringtones, nothing that involves sound! Everything was okay a few hours ago. I have no idea how this happened. Please help!!

    I tried the compressed air, Qtip, etc... still nothing. Called Apple again.... and we did a complete factory reset from iTunes, wiping everything out... still no sound, which proves that it is a hardward problem, under warranty, I have to have phone replaced   No Apple repair centers within 300 miles of me! So... shipping phone off today. Bummer.

  • How do i set text alerts to sound more than twice on iPhone 6 plus?

  • Why wont my Iphone5 make any sounds (ringer/text alert/mail recieved) when connected to anything by bluetooth?

    I have had my Iphone for about a week, I love it for almost everything.
    From what I see the bluetooth part of the phone is worthless. I have tried to use the bluetooth for hands free calls when in the car, it works for making calls, siri works great to make the calls also. But when the phone rings the phone does not make any sound, when recieve any text message or email message there is no sounds.
    Why is this, I see alot of discussion online, but when calling Apple they "have never heard of it"
    How do I make it work?

    The text and email notifications worked on my old 4S with the Hands Free Link in my 2013 Honda Pilot, but the new 5S does not in the same car. It vibrates when a text arrives, but no sound.

  • HT201412 iPhone 4S text alerts stop working

    I've have iOS 6 for months. Out of the blue my text alerts stopped working. I've rebooted a few times to no avail. All settings look right. And everything else seems to be working proper.

    Diesel I tend to agree with you there! All other sounds do work and I have the "glass" tone choosen for texting. I was all working fine with the new ios6 which I've had for months. since all other sounds work, I'll be heading to the genius bar at my local apple store. Now if only I'd taken that apple care ....LOL oh well

  • Has anyone had issues with not hearing the text alerts on the iPhone 5?

    hello i have been having issues with my iphone 5 not hearing the text alert tones.it will go from time to time & only hear the vibrating sound, The wired part is all other alerts work fine , just text. 
    Has anyone having this same issue ? Also i noticed sometimes when i text, i'll see some crazy blury lines go across my screen like as i text it will move across any help?

    I have had that issue with no text alert sound and also with calls, no ring for the call but then I got a missed call or voicemail alert. Never had the blurry lines though. Right after I upgraded, the ring changed to a very short version of what I have selected and only rang once, other times not at all. This was a very big problem since I am working from my car most of the day and get a lot of calls and texts.  I did a reset with home button and button on the top as described in a post somewhere here on the forum and the problems stopped. So far so good. Give reset a try!
