Sound check - turning off

a few weeks ago I selected sound check in the preferences menu and itunes spent some time making all the songs in my library the same volume, as it should do. However it has made some songs a bit too quiet, so I turned off the function in the preferences menu again.
1. Is there are a way of removing the sound check from all of my songs? (right click>Get Info> e.g. "Volume -10.6dB"
2. Why is it that when I add a new album to the library it says "Determining Song Volume" in the display even though sound check is off?
Windows XP

Never mind... somehow I moved the iTunes master volume down!!!! Argh!

My IPad sound keeps turning off. I have checked all the settings nd they are ok. I have to reset it all the time. It is very frustrating as I use it as an alarm, need I say I've waken late a few times.

How do I tell Apple to fix their software like apps that play sound even though the sound is turned off and not being able to disable features you hate like game center

Apple is suppose to be the pinnacle of usability and, yet, I want to throw my new IPhone 4s as far as I can and watch is smash into a million pieces on concrete. Seriously, I've already got three things that irritate the **** out of me. First, there are Apple apps that insist on playing sound even though the sound is turned off. If I flick a switch to turn the sound off, I want the sound off!!!! Second, if I do not want a totally unnecessary feature like Game Center, I should be able to disable it. I completed most of the Angry Bird levels with 2 or 3 stars and now I have to start over from square one. Maybe, this happened when I upgraded to the 4s but it sure seemed to happen when I joined Game Center. Tomorrow, I am going to reset my 4s to factory defaults to try to get rid of my Game Center account. I don't want Game Center! I do need Game Center! I hate Game Center! Finally, I had an alarm go off to wake me up and there was a Snooze button but no button to turn the alarm off. I flicked the slider to access the main screen expecting to see something to turn the alarm off but there was nothing. The alarm just kept alarming. I had to warm boot my IPhone to shut the alarm off! Really, Apple!!!!

The sound is turned off. Only, some Apple apps like YouTube and Siri make sound when the sound is turned off. It is very embarrassing when this happens at work. My question was how do I tell Apple to fix this?
Turning off game center does not work. The games just prompt me to sign in when they are started.I have tried everything I can find online to stop this behavior. It is annoying and should not happen. My question was how do I tell Apple to fix this?
The alarm went off. There was a green thing that looked like a button but pressing it did nothing. There was a red button that said snooze. I did not want to snooze. I wanted to turn the alarm off. I slid the bar to unlock the phone and there were no running apps with a button to press. The alarm just keep running. I have not had this problem since it first occurred. The alarm now shuts off when I just unlock the phone. It may have happened because I had another alarm app running. The two may have interfered with each other. I would like to tell Apple about it.
It also annoys me that the button that closes apps leaves the phone app running. If I press on a number at 6:00 AM to get information about who called me, the phone automatically dials the person back and my natural reaction is to press on the button to close the phone app but the phone keeps dialing this person at 6:00 AM. It is a bad design. I would like to tell Apple about it.
Finally, I looked all over Apple's site to try to find someplace I could send them a polite message to let them know that I was not happy with these "features" but could not find anything. It is extremely frustrating to have issues with a product and not being able to tell the manufacturer about it. So, you grow up!.
When trying to fix the Game Center issue, I saw a link someone posted to report issues with the IPad to Apple. The answer I am looking for is where is the link to report issues with the IPhone.

Sound output turning off in iTunes

When using iTunes on my macbook pro and connecting to AV amplifier with miniDVI-HDMI cable, the sound output turns off after some minutes. apron touching the trackpad, the sound turns on again.this does not happen with VLC. any help?

Since asking the question, I have established the following:
The sound output stops when the display goes to sleep. Note that only the display sleep mode affects this, not the computer sleep mode. Also the screen saver does not have any affect.
So, does anyone know how to stop this from happening? It does not make sense to me that iTunes ouput should stop when the display (not the computer) goes to sleep ...

Sounds Keep Turning Off

I've discovered during the past couple of weeks that my interface sounds (clicks at login, locking sound when pressing the top button, etc.) have been consistently turning off. I can reactivate them by reselecting my ring tone, which forces that sound to play, and that reactivates my Text pings, login clicks, and the like, for a while, but then, sure enough, those interface sounds turn off again. Going into Settings/Sounds and turning off the keyboard clicks and then pressing the slider to reactivate the clicks doesn't work. Only reselecting the default phone ring is enough to reactivate the interface sounds that all show they're supposed to be on.
I've tried graceful shutdowns and hard resets, to no avail.
This is a first generation iPhone with OS 3.0 running and about 2.4GB free storage available.
Anyone else experiencing this issue?
Thanks for listening...

My iPhone's been out of its dock (the two port version that came with my Apple Bluetooth Earpiece) all afternoon, and the sound has been fine with all interfaces effects clicking away normally (after I reselected the default ring sound initially).
Because I had noted that others have reported sound issues after using their docks, typically after they inserted it into the dock and got the message that the device wasn't compatible (which it certainly had to be since it was from Apple), and since I had also observed this message popping up lately when I docked my iPhone, I got out my USB cable connector and tried it this time before putting it back into the dock. The USB cable plugged into my iPhone and the charging transformer as expected, the iPhone made the connecting sound, and proceeded to recharge my iPhone correctly. So, I unplugged it, and looked carefully at the dock's connector pins, which appeared to be OK. I gave the pins a hard blow, just in case some dust was causing the issue, and plugged my iPhone back into the dock.
The iPhone made its dock connecting sound, the battery appeared on screen, and the charging symbol appeared in the top right corner, again, all as expected. So, I unplugged it and re-plugged it in several times, trying to see if I was going to get the Incompatible Device message, and tested the interface sounds several times. All seems to be working correctly, at the moment.
So, my hypothesis at the moment is that the problem I've been having over the past couple of weeks is not software related, but potentially hardware related, specifically to the Apple dock connector itself. I can't be sure at this point, but I will be testing this if the Incompatible Device message appears again and I start having the sounds turning off issue again.
For now, I'm marking this question as answered.

System Sound wont turn off after 1.3.1 update

I turn off the System Sounds to not here when notifications come in when I sleep, but I want to be able to here the phone ring when I call comes in...i dont wont to have to mute the whole phone... Is there a problem ticket or a break fix open on this issue...
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I have the same problem. I could turn off system sounds at night which would stop the e-mail notifications, but still allow the phone to ring. After the 1.3.1 update, the systems sound slider has no effect. The only way I can mute system sounds is to turn the ringer switch off which mutes the phone completely. I contacted Sprint and they have no clue. And, of course Palm only works during weekdays and normal working hours. Palm really needs to test updates completely before releasing them. I note others are reporting similar sound problems under different headings.

Facebook vibration and sound setting turned off but still vibrating and making sounds

Even though my Facebook vibration and sound settings are turned off on my Iphone, I still am receiving a vibration and sound everytime something happens in facebook. This only recently started happening.
I have tried uninstalling the FB app and reinstalling it but still happening

If you are having trouble keeping your fan from operating quietly, I recommend smcFanControl: http://www.eidac.de/
This is a program that runs in the menu bar, where you can manually regulate the power and temperature of your computer. I have had some problems where if I have it on low and I am using it on a bed or carpet, it can overheat without the fan kicking in to cool it down.
If you need to replace, the new Macbook Pro with Retina Display has a phenomenal cooling system that I highly recommend.

How to reset the iPod if it appears frozen or doesn't respond.
It may take quite a few attempts and is best done connected to power.
If this doesn't work, try restoring the iPod to factory settings.

24 inch makes sound when turned off

When my iMac 24 inch is turned off he keeps making a little sound, as if a small ventilator keeps running. Even after a couple of hours turned of (cooled down) the sound (very soft) is still present.
The only time this sound dissapears is when the computer is turned on and normally running.
Is this normal, does anyone else have this?
Please reply to [email protected]

How can I get Mail sounds to turn off for junk and other non-Inbox new mail?

This week my Mail sound started going off for all types, incessantly, including receipt of the much Junk filtered out of the Inbox into Junk. Formerly I received alert sounds only for new Inbox mail. I have unchecked the "Play sounds for other actions" in Mail Preferences which does no good. Any suggestions will be welcomed. Thanks.

Did you install any software which includes or is a notification program such as Growl? Those may override any options you've set in the Preferences.

Calendar alarm APP that will continue to sound until turned off?

Is there a calendar or alarm app that continues to sound alarm or reminder until you actually turn it off? Many cell phones have voicemail reminders and my Palm TREO (R.I.P.) had one for calendar alarms.

Most Android phones can be made to do this with their own settings, however you can go to the Play Store and download others. This type of alarm will be very hard on your battery life as a rule.

Sound not turning off

Even though I have my system sound completely off (using the sound down key and checking in the System Preference Pane), whenever I check my Mail, it still beeps upon check. Occasionally I need no sound at all in certain environments. How come the sound is still there?

The automated voice call was a typical spam call, which was coincidental and has nothing to do with the other issues and isn't malware or a virus.
Try these steps as needed:
1. Reset the phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears
2. Restore the iOS with iTunes, also restoring a backup
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings
If the probem still isn't fixed, you'll have to accept losing data including network settings:
3. Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
4. Restore the iOS with iTunes as new, without restoring a backup
