The sound on children games I downloaded suddenly stopped working.  Why.?

The sound on downloaded children's games no longer works.  How do I fix it?

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.
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 task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

    What's wrong with my iPhone ? :S

    Hey Jakob,
    Try restoring the iPhone, if the issue persists it may need hardware repair.

    You can request repair for iPhone accessories online here:

    You can also make a reservation to have a Genius at a local Apple retail store take a look at the iPhone or call AppleCare.

  • Whenever I try to play a game on my iPad  it will not play the sound. But when I play music it works.why?

    so basicall whenever I play a game the sound won't work but if I play a song or go on to youtube it works

    Could you have muted the sounds? Some games have separate sound controls.

  • The sound on my Iphone 4 has completely stopped working.

    I can't hear any sound at all, except when my headphones are plugged in. If I do get the sound to work, as soon as I use the volume button it quits again. I have tried rebooting my phone, but I don't want to do any more than that because I am not the one who does the hardware work on my phone. My boyfriend does the work but he is about 20 hours away. The lock sounds will work for a little bit but when I try and listen to any of my ringtones it quits working again. I have uninstalled the app that I use for my ringtones but it did not wipe the ringtones out of my phone. I am at a loss of why my phone has sound one minute then quits then next.

    Clean the iPhone charging port with a clean dry toothbrush.

  • The sound on my 5th Generation Ipod has stopped working

    So my ipod has the newest software and has been rebooted and all the other "re"s you can think of and yet the sound does not play.  The video works fine, and the music says it is playing but no sound will come into my headphones, stereo, or any other way I have tried to connect it to get sound to come out.  ANy way to fix without buying a new iPod?

    I have the same problem and my nieces ipod fifth gen also lost sound capabilities - Apple should admit to this problem and repair them for free!!!!

  • The "Clear Recent History" setting under "Tools" suddenly stopped working about two weeks ago and is still not working with version 8.0. I am running Mac OX 10.6.8 on a desktop

    Until a couple of weeks ago I could clear my history under the "Tools" setting.
    Now the only way I am able to clear history is to open the history, select all, and then delete---all manually.

    Dear cor-el:
    I did restart in Safe Mode; however, I DID make change in the Safe Mode restart window, resetting to defaults.
    Not only did this not help, but now it is worse, as my history won't show up when I click "Show All History" so I am unable to clear history even manually.
    Did I misunderstand your suggestion? I've been using Firefox with various versions of OX 10 for years w/o such a problem, and now have so many bookmarks on Firefox that I hate to abandon the browser.
    However, I do not wish to have a permanent, unclearable history.
    Below is a screenshot of how the Safe Mode page appeared.

  • The FTP function in Dreamweaver CS5 has suddenly stopped working. My ISP just had to upgrade their FTP servers and they said it was no longer compatible with the FTP in Dreamweaver CS5! Help!!

    Is there any update to Dreamweaver CS5 that will allow the FTP function to be compatible with the new FTP server protocol? Please help. Will I need to upgrade to CS6?

    Ask in the DW forum and be much more specific about the requirements for your FTP connection like its ports, TLS settings and so on.

  • TS1363 I pod suddenly stopped working, why?

    I recently had my i pod playing through a port in my dads car, it has been used for this purpose before, when suddenly in the middle of the first song i played, it started to make a juddering noise, so i unplugged it and discoverd that the screen had frozen, so i reset my ipod, and it did not turn back on, nor has it done so since. Why has this happened and what can I do to fix it, before taking it into a shop.

    mabye it was because it was in the sun of was around a lot of heat. that can really damage your ipod. if thats why, leave it unplug in some shade for about 10 mins, and then wiggle the hold button. then, turn it on and check if it works.
    hope it works!

  • Flash Player Suddenly Stopped Working on Chrome, I.E. and FF

    As with many other posters, the latest version of flash player (fp) suddenly stopped working on FireFox, Chrome and Internet Explorer!  I uninstalled fp using the fp uninstaller and attempted to reinstall it, but it would not download on FireFox nor Internet Explorer (Chrome has a built-in fp).  Therefore, I did a system restore to an earlier date hoping this would solve the problem.  It did not.  I have also unticked hardware acceleration, still nothing.
    If anyone has found a solution, please let me know.  Thanking you all in advance.
    Ndrei

    Fortunately, I found my answer.  I went into the Adobe Global Settings (http://www.macromedia.com/support/documentation/en/flashplayer/help/settings_manager03.htm l ) and checked  "Allow third party flash content to store data on your computer".  Hopefully this may help someone else.

  • The sound on my ipad 3 suddenly stopped working i dont know why i tried the last two days to fix it and also restored it and the sound never came back, please help.....

    the sound on my ipad 3 suddenly stopped working i dont know why i tried the last two days to fix it and also restored it and the sound never came back, please help.....

    Do you get sound on any apps e.g. Music and Videos but not others ? If you do then have you got notifications muted ? Only notifications (including games) get muted, so the Music and Videos apps, and headphones, still get sound.
    Depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (mute or rotation lock), then you can mute notifications by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085

    Yes but there's no point doing it here. As the Terms of Use make quite clear this is a User to User forum. It's Users like you talking to other Users. It's not a channel to communicate with Apple.

  • Hi, my brand new iphone 4 will not play music through my music app but it will play videos through youtube and will play the sounds throught my games and will play text tones and facetime ect. what is wrong?

    hi, my brand new iphone 4 will not play music through my music app but it will play videos through youtube and will play the sounds throught my games and will play text tones and facetime ect. what is wrong?

    At least I'm not the only one with the issue. I was looking it up so see if others had the same problem and found a bunch of posts about it. I'm assuming it's not the phone then, it's the software. Should I bring it to the Apple Store? Replacing the phone seems stupid, because the phone isn't really the problem. It's the software! Maybe the iOS 5.0.2 will fix it???  I don't really want to wait though, it's a pain. If a lot of people have this issue it should get Apple's attention. They need to do something to fix it, ASAP!

  • My mac pro suddenly stops working (2011), connection to the monitor stops, but de tiny light on computer still on and all sound stops. what's the problem?

    my mac pro suddenly stops working (2011), connection to the monitor stops, but de tiny light on computer still on and all sound stops. what's the problem?

    When the display turns off, it is not clear whether the computer has halted, or whether the display subsystem has failed.
    Those tests determine whether:
    a) Your Mac software had stopped working  OR
    b) Only the display had stopped working
    If the pressing the Caps lock light on the keyboard lights the Caps Lock light on the keyboard, some software is still running -- your Mac has not halted.
    If pressing Control-Eject on the keyboard, followed by the Return key shuts down your Mac, the software was still running.
    ¿Software was still running?
    --Yes, the problem is ONLY in the display subsystem
    --No, this is a computer-wide problem such as a kernel panic
