The volume on my iPhone 5c is really low when playing music out loud.

When I am playing music out loud it is far too quiet. It is actually louder when I put headphones in without putting them in my hear than when I just play music out loud. What could be wrong? It's really annoying me.

Hello, asialeighx.

  • The sound quality of my speaker suddenly got really poor when playing music or videos.  Sounds like an old AM radio or Sputnik.  Pretty sure it's hardware related but maybe not.  Thoughts on what the problem might be and if it can be repaired?

    The batterys the ipods come with are very sensetive somtimes they dont react right to the first couple of charges. Try fully charging it and then leaving it on until its completely drained a few times. If that doesnt work it might be a lemon.

  • My iPhone 4S will not play music out loud. I can't turn sound up or down, it doesn't even give me the option.  I think that it thinks its docked, I've tried to blow air in it, I've tried compressed air with no luck.

    Clean iPhone charging port with clean dry toothbrush. See if fixed. If not, and if there is Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation and take to Apple for resolution. If no coverage, clean again, very well with toothbrush and small amount of Isopropyl Alcohol.

  • When I want to play music out loud the volume bar disappears and it won't play music or any sound. This sometimes happens with head phones in aswell. How do I fix it? I have tried to reset settings and wipe all the data of it but it didn't work.help!

    Although you say you have let the battery drain, was it for long enough? Since nothing else that you've tried so far has worked, I suggest that you leave the iPod unplugged for at least four days, preferably a week. That way, if something is stopping the iPod from turning the screen on, then whatever it is will drain the battrey. However, since the screen isn't on, that may take longer than if the screen was on.
    Then, after that time, plug the iPod into a power source and leave it alone for at least thirty minutes. Only after thirty minutes will it show any signs of life, but you should leave it until it is fully charged before trying to use it.
    If you get to this stage, the fact that the battery has drained will cause the iPod to reset when it springs back to life.
    Let us know how you get on.

  • My iPhone 4 has no sound when playing music or videos-help please?!

    Hi - my phone has stopped having any sound when playing music or videos, no volume bar either. No key noises either - but I can live without those!! I can hear sound through headphones, though sometimes that's intermittent. I have tried cleaning ports, restarting it, restoring it, pressing right hand corner of screen, taking headphones in and out repeatedly, pressing speaker twice whilst making call, blowing air into charging port, flicking volume switch on and off on side etc yet nothing has worked. Please can anyone else help? Apple want £135 plus vat to service it which isn't worth it in my opinion!

    Is the mute switch on?
    Is Do Not Disturb mode enabled?

  • Sound on my iPhone 4 , turns really low when I plug in my headphones or a device then turns back to normal when I plug the headphones/device back out , tried turning off , using the troubleshoot turn off and shouting at it please help

    The sound on my iPhone is perfect until I plug in speakers or headphones
    Then the sound halves and won't turn all the way up, when I do turn it up the
    Sound just switches off till I turn it back down low to wear it works ,
    When I unplug headphones/device sound returns to normal

    Normally, an iPhone will remember what you had your volume set to right before you unplugged your headphones last and set the volume back to that when you plug them in again. Do you have a habit of tuning your volume down before unplugging?

  • IPod Touch 5th Gen sound really low when playing movies/tv shows from video app

    I just bought a ipod touch 5th generation for my daughter so she can watch her movies and tv shows that i purchased on itunes. On my iPhone 5S, I have no problems with the sound... Loud and clear. However with my new ipod touch, those same movies/tv shoes have really low volume. The sound while using Apps, Games and playing music are all fine. While playing from the video app, headphones are ok too... My problem is the sound from the speaker. I don't understand why all the other functions on the ipod that use sound is OK.
    I have already reset my ipod and reset all the settings too... still didnt work. Please help! Thanks

    The speaker is not that good but maybe yours is defective if you have the volume fully raised.
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted and have a poor contact.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Check also Settings > General > Accessibility > Hearing. Make sure that the sound balance is not set all the way to "R" or "R".
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack or other hardware problem.

  • Just downloaded the ios6 on my iPhone 4 and am having trouble playing music via my USB in my Acura.... Any suggestions?

    Need help being able to play my music again!!

    SBerman- I am the only owner/user of the phone but thanks for trying on that angle.  It doesn't apply but I appreciate your idea.
    KiltedTim- Yes, I have encountered an activation lock.  The Apple ID should be the one that I use when I go into itunes but that one is not working.  I even tried the Apple email/id I got when I first bought the phone years ago and that didn't work either.  It is asking me for an id that ends in @me.com and I have NO IDEA what this is or how to get it to "shift focus" onto one of the id's I do know.
    Does that make things clearer?

  • Why is the volume on my MacBook Pro suddenly so low?

    The volume on my macbook pro is really low.  It used to be much better, now I can hardly hear people when on skype or listening to music... everything is set on high volume... help!?!

    Try:
    Reboot into Safe Mode then reboot normally. Safe mode takes longer to boot than booting regularly. That is normal.
    Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
    Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder.  Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu.  Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order.  If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time (>=70,) then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar.  Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process.  See if that helps.  Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.

    The sound on my Iphone 4 is really quiet and muffled, i have the latest update and have restored it but it is still the same, can anyone help?

    Through the headphones or through the speaker?
    Have you consistently played sound through the speaker at a high volume with a lot of bass?
    Have you tested it with multiple apps/songs/movies?
