TS3274 I am unable to turn up the volume on my iPad

I can get my alerts to sound under settings and I can turn the mute button on because the mute icon pops up when I hit the mute button.  But, when I try to adjust the volume the volume gauge does not show up.  How can I fix my my volume button?

Last resort, force iPad into Recovery Mode.
1. Turn off iPad
2. Turn on computer and launch iTunes (make sure you have the latest version of iTune)
3. Plug USB cable into computer's USB port
4. Hold Home button down and plug the other end of cable into docking port.
DO NOT RELEASE BUTTON until you see picture of iTunes and plug
5. Release Home button.
ON COMPUTER
6. iTunes has detected iPad in recovery mode. You must restore this iPad before it can be used with iTunes.
7. Select "Restore iPad"...
Note:
1. Data will be lost if you do not have backup
2. You must follow step 1 to step 4 VERY CLOSELY.

  • My 5 yr. old turned off the volume on my ipad. when I hit the volume buttons it just says "sound effects" and does not go up or down

    my 5 yr. old turned off the volume on my ipad. when I hit the volume buttons it just says "sound effects" and does not go up or down

    I had the same problem- go to Utilities, General, Use Side Switch To, and change it from Mute to Lock Rotation- this solved the problem for me.
    Good luck!

  • I could not turn up the volume on my iPad using the volume button on the side. Is there any way to fix this?

    I could not turn up the sound (volume) on my iPad 2 using the volume button on the side. This happens after I have reduced the volume to minimum using the same volume button. The volume indicator does not move up at all. Note: it was not on mute, so the issue seems to be the button.

    Try this and see if it works.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.

    You will have to restore your phone as a NEW device, not using backup at all (unless the backup predates the implementation of the restriction password).

  • TS1398 i am unable to turn on the Wi-Fi.

    i am unable to turn on the Wi-Fi.

    I had the exact same issue with a 2 year old iPhone. I read up on it all day and tried everything. Last ditch - I tried  a weird solution I found online and it worked. Overheat the iPhone gently with a hot hair dryer until it gives the Temperature alert and goes into recovery mode.
    Now put it in a Ziplock bag and place it in the freezer for 5-10 minutes. If it comes back on you are ready to do teh following.
    Go to Settings / General / Reset / Reset Network Settings. Reset it.
    This takes a few mins. Once complete - force reboot the iPhone holding down the Home and Power buttons for about 10 second simultaneously. Once you see the Apple reboot let go.
    It's weird - it was my last roll of the dice - but it worked. I was able to switch on the WiFi and it connected.
    There is a Canadian post online where many people have had the same success

  • How can I turn up the volume of music on my ipod?   how about with I-trip?

    I have certain songs that just do not get loud enough to hear and I am not sure why. They come out just fine if I put them on a cd and play them that way. However on the ipod and trough my i-trip for the car they are extremely low and some are practically inaudible. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks for your time.. one and all. Kat

    Hi Kat, welcome to the fourms.
    Have you tryed turing up the volume on your iPod itself? Or turning up the volume in the car?
    There is another way to adjust the volume. If you go into iTunes. Right click on a song. Then you can select "get info". When that pops up, select "Options", then you can adjust the volume there.
    If you want to do it to your entire library, or a ig ammount of songs. Select the entire list of songs that you want, then right click and get info. A box should pop up saying something like "You are about to edit info for multiple songs. Do you want to continue", then click yes, and you can adjust multiple songs that way.

  • When I try to open my Yahoo mail in safari, I get a message which states:" In order to use Yahoo mail, please turn Private Browsing off. Please go to Settings Safari Private Browsing, and turn off" The problem is my ipad does not a Private Browsing switch

    When I try to open my Yahoo mail in safari, I get a message which states:" In order to use Yahoo mail, please turn Private Browsing off. Please go to Settings>Safari>Private Browsing, and turn off" The problem is, my ipad does not a Private Browsing switchat this location.

    With iOS 7 on the iPad, you turn Private  Browsing on and off by tapping the URL field.  The screen that  opens up has your bookmarks on it.  In the bottom left corner is a hot button marked 'PRIVATE'.  Tap on the word 'PRIVATE' to turn private browsing on or off.  Yeah, there aren't any instructions anywhere that I can find to do this, and if you follow Yahoo's instructions, they don't work.  This doesn't happen with the previous Apple OS, and you can restore your iPad to the older OS. 

  • Turn down the volume of built-in speaker before playing music

    So I was wondering if there was any way to turn down the volume of the built in speaker prior to playing music/video. I imagine that if I'm REALLY quick and pause the action, I can turn it down, but I'd rather not have to race against time.
    The context for this, is the desire to show someone else video on the iPhone (say a National Geographic video podcast) without the audio blasting forth.
    Any ideas?

    So you're saying the phone doesn't remember the previous setting you had it at and jumps up or something...?
    ..or you want to hit play and have it not play so you can adjust the volume first...sorry can't help if that's the case. It kind of doesn't make sense from a UI perspective, when I press play or start a video I want it to play....different strokes for different folks tho

  • How can I turn off the volume limitor on my ipod nano?  I want to play it with a docking station, it is no where near as loud as an old 4GB ipod!

    Hello, please can you tell me how to turn off the volume limiotr on my ipod nano?  I want to play it on a docking station and it just isn't as loud as I want it to be.  An old ipod is much louder.

    I tend to select things from left to right and every time I am moving in a downward right diagonal motion during lasso selection I am missing a clear view and I am tending to have a more sloppy selection.  All this does is slow me down since I need to go back and hit those areas again.  The big arrowhead just get's in the way.  The original lasso tool with the thin line and small active point at it's lower left was far better for me.
    I don't like turning the cursors to precise because I like to see the active tool icon where my cursor is and as the icon changes as I hold modifier keys down.  If I am forced to get comfortable with using pricise cursors I guess I will, but man, I've never had to do this in my 15 years of photoshop use...
    I would absolutely LOVE to find a way to get the old lasso icon -- without the arrowhead above it.
    Is there any chance this option could be inlcuded in cursor preferences?  I'd give much thanks, Adobe.

  • I cannot turn up the volume during a phone call

    My "+" button on the side of my phone is broken and I cannot turn up the volume during a phone call. Is there any other way to control the volume during phone calls?

    After trying everything I gave up.
    But just 5 minutes ago... I dropped by phone on the floor, not from high, just sitting on my chair at my pc desk...
    And someone just called and i can hear them!!!
    So...
    for me, i guess it was really a piece inside that wasn't making a good connection and well...
    I accidentally fixed it...
    But I wouldn't reccomend you to drop it on purpose.
    But maybe go to your nearest apple store, ask them to open it and see if everythin is in place inside?
    cheers

  • Can I turn up the volume more than maximum volume?

    I'm using iMac with no external speakers connected. I always want to turn up the volume more than the maximum volume but I don't know how to do. Is there any ways? Thanks.

    Ahh, think about it a moment. It's called "maximum" for a reason.
    If you want louder sound connect a set of powered external speakers.
