Site-specific volume-control

There are some websites, that use Flash with Sound, but don't have an own volume-control. And if you use the volume-control of the OS, it effects the sound of all open webpages, media player, system sounds, and so on. And you have to remind to change it again after the visit of the site.
There should be a way, to separately control the sound of every Flash-applet. Maybe in the right-click-menu or any other way.
Greetings,
Jasper

This feature exists, and many sites - like Youtube - make use of it. Sites that don't use it -- there is really not much anyone can do, except complain to these sites.

Does iTunes/Airport Express support speaker-specific volume control?

Hi there,
So say I have two Airport Expresses, one in the living room with speakers and another one in the bathroom with speakers. Can I setup the volume in the bathroom to be lower?
Thanks.

You can do this using Airfoil at http://rogueamoeba.com/airfoil/

Is there a volume control specific for Facetime?

I'm wondering if there is a way to control the volume of Facetime without using the main volume control (like how you can control the volume of Skype within the application itself). Some kind of separate application or tweek?
Thank you.

No, there is no audio volume control specifically designed for the Facetime application. I'm using Snow Leopard 10.6.8 here but I'm sure this info also applies to your osx. You'll find that Facetime is not nearly as sophisticated as skype, at this point in time.

How do I set shortcuts on my new onn wireless keyboard for volume control?

Replacement Keyboard
Volume control issue with a non- Apple Keyboard
[Sunday - July 29, 2012 - 2:18pm]
Question: I just purchased a new keyboard in place of the orginal for my iMac which gave out this morning. The brand name of the keyboard is
ONN & it's a wireless board. I've encountered an issue that is a deal breaker - if there is no possible way to correct it. The volume control buttons used to
increase/decrease/mute the volume do not work on this product. I bough this keyboard because it was one of the two that was Mac compatable at my
local store. I realize you get what you pay for but hope there is a soulution!
**Sidenote: I was curious, anyone had any other issues with these keyboards?
Some additional information:
When I woke up this morning, sat down in my computer chair, turned on my iMac and pulled up Textedit. I placed my hands on my faithful keyboard and within moments I realized that it had met it's end. I was quite upset that my original, sleek white iMac keyboard was now a thng of the past but realized that I'd need a replacement very soon in order to get my paperwork done.
Unfortunately, I did not have time to ride forty-five minutes to my local Apple store and I didn't neccesarily want to hand over the cash for one of the pricey keyboards at the time because I am going on a vacation within the next few weeks and each dime counts. So, I decided to visit a store that obviously would have the cheapeast deals in the meantime. So, I headed to to Wal-Mart to make a quick purchase
As I walked the aisles it soon became evident that today's market still is not on point when it comes to having Apple compatable hardware, softwore or anything for that matter. As I quickly skimmed the keyboards I ran across several that caught my eye, but of course, they were all made specifically for Windows. So, finally I approcahed two keyboards that were Mac compatible. The first was way too large and came with a mouse, which I did not need. The second caught my eye and I knew that this would be my purchase.:::
The verdict: an onn wireless keyboard that was both affordable and also gave off a sleek and modern apperance. (Retailed: $24.00)
So, I got home and began using the board. For the first how I was actuallly very satisfied. I like the buttons and the feel of the board. Then, I encountered a problem that made my interested for the new keyboard vanish.
The Issue: On the boards layout, the (F2) key has a symbol that notates the decrease volume control button, (F3) of course would be the increase volume button & lastly the (F4) button represents the [mute] button.
However, these buttons don't work. Sadly, I am not aware of how I could possibly change this issue or if it would even be possible. I sincerely hope that it's possible - because I like the convience of the volume control keys - they were actually my favorite part of the keyboard. Manually changing the volume by going through system preferences does not sound fun to me once so ever. I guess you could call me spoiled but I don't think I can even keep this board if it doesn't have the ability to change volume/mute via the keyboard.
This is a shame because the keyboard it'self isn't bad at all and I actually somewhat like it. So, if you have any information or an answer to this question - I'd truly appreciate hearing your responses! Also, do keep in mind I am a rookie when it comes to computers as a whole so try to simplicate things for me if that is nessecary.
Closing negative note on this keyboard: As I typed this I started encountering a very annoying problem. As I am typing in a line, forming a sentence the keyboard would randomly start typing in pargraphs above and below as well. I'm not sure if this is something that I caused by pressing too hard with my hands or if this is a deffect. Either way, I will saving my receipt and the boxing for this product until I hear further news.
I hope to hear from you soon and I appreciate your help very much.
Have a great day,
David Travis Center

Volume control for video playback through Apple TV2

I am trying to configure the volume settings used on airplay through apple TV2 and a macbook pro and Iphone4 all with most recent updates.
I am using the apple remote app on my iphone to control the apple tv.
Whats working:
Using the pandora app on my iphone through aiplay to the apple tv, I can control the volume using the plus and minus buttons on the side of the iphone for volume control. Very cool and easy.
Using the apple remote app on my iphone I can control the itunes volume of different speakers by clicking on the airplay icon and using a slider. Not as cool as using the hard +/- buttons but still works.
Whats not working:
Controling volume on appleTV2 through the iphone remote app for video playbacks like netflix, and youtube.
Why I want this: RIght now I can control most of the multimedia right from my iphone including cranking the music up:) But when I switch over to video(Netlfix, Youtube) I have to get out another remote (stereo reciever) to control the volume. It seems we are so close to being able to control everything off the iphone, the only thing missing is volume control for video playback.
Is there a setting that can be changed or a solution I havent found?
Thanks

Same problem with TV3. HDMI volume output is not adjustable, neither with the original Apple remote nor with any universal. Why ? Every simple settop-box is able to be volume adjusted. And a Mac Mini too ?!!!
I use a flatscreen TV. it has 3 HDMI inputs and one optical out for the audio going to an amp standing behind it. The sound of the TV is switched to go to the optical out.
HDMI 1 is connected to the satellite settop box with its own remote control ( channel +/-, volume +/- etc. ) it work s fine.
HDMI 2 is connected to the MacMini HDMI out with its own remote control ( channel/music +/-, volume +/- ) it works fine too.
HDMI 3 was connected to Apple TV3 with its own remote control ( channel/music +/- but no volume ). I sent the TV3 back to Apple.
What's going wrong in the mind of Apple ? Why is the HDMI volume output of the MacMini adjustable with the Apple remote, and the TV3 not ?
I want not to discuss, wether a 4th remote control is useful or not. I don't want it. I want to adjust the volume with the originl remote control of the specific unit I use, because I need it anyway. It worked since years, but not with Apple TV3.
How can we help Apple to open the volume +/- function on their own remote control ?

Volume controls on my Apple BT Keyboard do not control volume on my Mac Mini

I just updated the OS on my Mac Mini to Yosemite and everything was working fine, but earlier today the volume control buttons on my Apple BT Keyboard stopped controlling the volume on my Mac Mini. I was watching a movie just last night and the keyboard controlled the volume just fine. So the keyboard WAS working fine for a few hours after I installed Yosemite.
When I press the volume buttons I get the screen display for sound and instead of the up and down volume that I usually get when repeatedly pressing the volume button I get a zero with a line through it. The same thing happens when I press the mute/unmute button so the computer is not muted. And it's not an issue with the F key settings in preferences because the volume buttons DO get a response and display on the screen, but the volume doesn't change and, as I said, instead of the up/down scale I get the zero with a line through it.
I can change the volume using the mouse and sliding the volume slider in ITunes up or down, but that's the only way. Also, strangely, the volume icon in the Apple bar at the top of my screen is grayed out. When I click on it, the slider shows volume all the way up and it's grayed out. And if I click and drag to try and change that slider, it doesn't respond.
Basically, it appears that the keyboard is, in some ways, not compatible with the computer. I'm typing with the keyboard now, and all the other buttons work except for the volume up/down/mute buttons. Even the change track, play/pause buttons work just fine. So it's not specific to the music controls. And again, I DO get that display for volume when I press volume up/down/mute with the zero and line through it.
I've owned Macs for over 10 years and this is the first time I've seen this. Very, very strange so any help possible is appreciated.

No volume control elements and/or devices found

Hi, I recently installed Arch Linux and I followed the tutorials on how to configure it. At this moment I have Gnome installed and it is working fine, I only have one problem.
Every time if I try to access volume control I get the following error:
"No volume control elements and/or devices found"
I'm relatively new to Linux so it might be me just being stupid(Maybe I just don't have the right packages installed) but I've searched the web and I didn't find anything that could help, I also searched this site but there are only a few things about sound problems. I think the problem is caused because Linux is not detecting my sound card (its an on board sound card) or maybe I have not given the command to detect it/activate it. In Google I've found that 'lsmod' and 'lspci' commands are for detecting drivers, so I executed those in my terminal and put them here, I hope this might help fixing my problem.

Gonna reinstall it, things usually go better the second time.
make sure u have adding the user to audio group in order to access sound device.
gpasswd -a user audio
Yes, I think that was the problem. Anyways, I reinstalled Arch Linux and everything is working fine now.

Audio symbol from right hand bottom has disappeared, Volume control is not available.

I have HP compaq presario f 739 au, laptop running on windows XP. One fine morning I found audio missing, the symbol (a) for audio was not there,even volume control ( Realtek AC 97 ) could not be opened.
I tried few things like reloading UAA bus driver,(sp 33867) AND CONNEXANT SP 35258, ETC But I got messages like-Could not find media device for the driver" or There are no active mixer devices available. and am stuck without audio.
All other system functions are ok ,this sudden dis appearance of audio has put limits on use.
Any suggestions?

HT201401 volume control increases on its own

volume control goes loud without touching it. anyone have this issue?

Maybe try and let the iPod sit in a sealed container of rice for a few days to continue drying out. It might not hurt to then connect the Nano to iTunes and restore it to factory settings.
Restoring iPod to factory settings
Otherwise, it's likely that the moisture has caused some internal component(s) to short circuit. In that case you'll need to have the iPod serviced/replaced eith by Apple or a third party repair company.

Tecra P5 - Volume control doesnt work properly

Hi
Since upgrade to Windows 7 64 bit I can't turn the volume all the way down by using the volume control at the front of the notebook. Worked fine under Vista 32 bit.
The volume control still works but no matter how far I wind it to the left there is still sound coming from the speakers.
Any help appreciated.
Thanks
Warren

As far as I know volume control in the past was mechanical but now it works on different way and it is controlled by specific tool/utility.
To be honest Tecra P5 is not known to me but obviously it is Australian notebook model and according to Australian support page this notebook model is not supported for Windows 7.
That doesnt mean you cannot use it but this means there is not software package designed for Windows 7 that can be installed so I think there is no much you can do about it.
I know it is annoying but for volume control you can use Windows option placed in task bar.

How do I get back the volume control in internet plugin

In Safari 4, when I play some items like the quicktime trailers from Apple's site, I see a volume control under the movie, and clicking it brings up the slider as expected. However in most other items Quicktime wants to play (e.g. an mp3 like http://www.husky-rescue.com/Resources/weshall_burnbright.mp3), I see the volume control button, but clicking it just mutes and un-mutes the volume. Furthermore, in Safari I am missing the little triangle on the right side of the controls to pull down the menu for saving the item, adjusting connection speed, etc. (I have QT Pro).
The controls appear and function as expected in Firefox and Opera, so this seems to be a Safari issue.
I have tried to enable and disable the plugins in various combos under /Library/Internet Plug-Ins to no avail. Anyone else seen this and anyone else have a workaround?

Yes, I am having the same problem. I have also seen other posts on the web about the issue. The only workaround appears to be using another browser. Surely Apple does not want to drive users to Firefox with this.

Why does iphone has common volume control for ringer as well as Alarm?

Why does iphone has common volume control for ringer as well as Alarm? which is quite unusual. For Exp, In case i lower down my ringer for some reason instead of silent and forget to increase before i sleep, my morning alarm also remains at the same ringer level volume at which i can miss the alarm. Is it due to some specific reason or i have missed something to change in settings. Other phone like Samsung etc, they have separate volume control for ringer and to an extent, Nokia rings for Alarm even if the battery is completely discharged.

I have booked an appointment at my nearest Genius Bar which is 40 minutes away next week, so do I need a reciept or is the warranty checked from the serial number?
No receipt needed.
and is it covered under Apple's 12 month warranty?
It very well may be covered, depending on what Apple finds.

Volume control not working , which database controls volume?

I have read this solution elsehwhere, but I came to the blackberry forums to see if you guys can help me up with this question.

Here was my workaround to get the media player volume back up to 50% (not 100%, but it's a heck of a lot better than zero):
1. Launch desktop manager
2. Synchronize with Outlook
3. Backup everything to a new database (not really needed, but just a precaution)
4. Restore old database (before volume got stuck at 0%)
5. Change synchronization conflict resolution options so that Outlook wins
6. Synchronize with Outlook
7. Change synchronization conflict resolution option back to "ask me what to do"
Voila. Now my media player volume is back to 50%, which is where it was when I did the last backup before accidentally ratcheting it down to 0%.
Whenever I restore a database, it always loses my Internet Browser. To get it back, go under Options / Advanced Options / Host Routing Table / Menu Key / Register Now / Ok. Unfortunately, I'm back to all the old bookmarks as they were in the old database, but I can always re-do those changes.
[quote]
Okay I Could restore an old database where the volume was at 50%, but the Desktop Media Manager also has an option to restore specific options that were previously backed up .
SO my question is, does anyone know what specific database controls the volume control? SO I won't have to do a FULL Database restore?
Thank You :smile:

Long shot, but...
Open Audio Midi Setup in Applications>Utilities, see the input & output options & KHz setting there, some things will change it for their own use, then not set it back.

Musicapp, speaker and volume control won't work since updated to iOS 7.1

Since I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7.1 my iPhone works faster than iOS 7. But some apps like musicapp, youtube have no volume control and the speakers won't work. When somebody call me the iPhone rings normally. I tried turn off bluetooth because I thought the iPhone will conect to my car. I pressed the lock and homebutton for reseting, I deletetet my whole iPhone and installed iOS7.1 again - nothing changed. Only when i plug in my earphones everything will work as normal.

Hi AmishCake!
Thanks for your tipp! i cleaned the headphone port and usb-port and reinserted the plug several times!
i think this isn't the problem!
here i prepared a picture how the screen looks like when i plug in my headphones!
https://www.dropbox.com/s/omi3hlp1zzyx43k/Foto%2026.03.14%2013%2017%2040.png
it seems to be a problem of the update to 7.1 because some guys posted the same problem on other sites.
sorry for my bad english and thank you for trying to solve my problem!

Earbuds volume control

Dear Apple,
Because I cannot find a product suggestions page/site, I'll create a new discussion topic.
I wear collared shirts to the office and the location of the volume control on your earbuds get's hung up on my collar quite frequently. This causes the earbud to adjust itself such that it's either uncomfortable, not optimal, or both. On some occasions it pulls the earbud out of my ear.
May I recommend you review it's location and move it such that it doesn't interfere with a very common article of clothing.
Peace.
Boudreaux.

Hey,
you´re right. No option vor volume control.
I bought the "shame on me" apple earpods with micro. Everthing is working fine.

cheers
