Unwanted ipad mini alert sounds

I have unwanted alert sounds on my ipad mini. I have looked at all the sounds and notification settings and cannot find the one that is causing the sound.

The actual alert sound is set in the Settings App > Sounds > [then tap on the specific activity]. you might start there and see if you can determine which is using the Choo-choo sound. Once you determine that, you can go to the Notifications section and turn off the alert.

  • Ipad mini. no sound. volume control shows headphone icon. no headphone attached

    Hi, I am having trouble getting any sound out of my mini, which is on IOS 7. The volume buttons show the headphone icon but there is no headphone attached. What do I need to do to get back to normsal? I cannot see any setting?
    I have had my mini for a year with no problems.

    Try this  - Reset 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 - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

  • IPad mini, the sound wont come out through the earphones the 2nd tym around,... other than the time consuming hard reset, any solution guys ...please?

    i saw there is a new iOS version for the iPad mini, could this new version be a solution to the problem in question, i'm always on the move thats why i havent updated yet, but if the update solves the problem i will update asap.

    Jimhdk I meant... Say I just did a hard reset the sound comes out of the earphones upon inserting them into the jack but should I remove them from the jack for any reason the sound will continue to come out of the main speakers after re-insertion of the earphones. The sound will continue to come out of the main speakers until I hard reset again.
    Demo, so it's not necessary for me to update for my wifi is bug-less.

  • No headphones will work on my iPad mini. Sound just continues to come out of speakers

    My iPad mini will not produce sound on any headsets it continues to play out the speakers even with headsets in

    Or go to the store, wait in line, and go 1-800-Geek-Squad. Then hand over the phone to the geek squad guy at the counter when it's your turn, so both departments are confused.
    Don't actually do this.
    However, yes, there could be a number of issues with that, it's kind of hard to diagnose over the boards. If you can't figure it out by the time the store opens, bring it in - or call the phone number for 24/7 support.

  • Ipad Mini Headphones -- Sound in only one speaker

    Today I used the Ipad Mini with headphones and there's only audio in one speaker. I did a hard reset, have tried different applications, and even another set of headphones. The problem persists.
    Any ideas on good next steps? Thanks.

    Nevermind, I restarted the computer again and it seems to be working fine now  

  • Ipad mini no sound

    i have this for the grandaughter for her to watch her kids stuff
    however i suspect that a headphone plug is broken off inside the plug hole as there is no sound from it apart from 1 game which is called funny fruit.
    is this possible for that to happen and 1 games work with sound.
    also is this fixable at the apple shop??

    if the plug was broken, you would get no sounds at all.  I do not think that is it.  (There are a handful of threads about retrieving broker headphone plugs if you search for them - but if that was the case, you would hear nothing.  This may be simpler.  is the volume on and up? 
    So,me games use sounds - some games use system sounds.  If you 'mute sounds' on the pad, what you are muting is the system sounds.  Check that.
    If you lock system sounds in settings, but turn the volume way down, the only thing you will hear is the locked system sounds. 
    Check that.  But I don't think the issue is a brokern plug.

  • My new ipad mini has sound but I can't hear the clicks or the keyboard sounds. Please help someone!

    The sounds setting is on, and I can play music etc but other sounds such as the select click or the keyboard clicks are not there. It is a new pad so maybe some setting is on off or something? The volume button on the side is on full but still not clicks!

    1. Double-click the Home button and swipe the Task Bar (at bottom) to the right. Check volume and mute settings.
    2. Hold the Sleep and Home button down for about 10 seconds until you see the Apple Logo
