Volume button disappeared

I have the same problem with my iPhone. I will have the volume on, not on mute, but when I try to listen to music and go to apps, there is no sound, or even a sound bar. When I have the earphones plugged in, the sound bar shows up, and I can play with it when I am in a call. I DID accidentally splash some water into the left speaker, however I soaked it in rice, and it was fine for awhile, then the sound bar disappeared. The speakers seem fine. What I am asking is what can I do? Is this a hardware problem that needs replacement? I also tried cleaning the earphone jack with alcohol and a q-tip and the sound DID work, only to disappear after while, or a day. Any help would be great!

I also restored my phone and still had the same results

HT4061 My volume quit working and volume button disappeared

my volume quit working and the volumebutton disappeared. Last night I was able to get itback briefly by following instructions from a community string. I.e lock rotation double press home and adjust on slide. However this morning, sound gone and can't getting back. The volume button is gone.

THanks. Tried to restore a couple times now. Think it's toast. Still works w/headphones. Know anything about out of warranty coverage? I dropped shortly after purchased 7 mo ago (volume worked fine until 2 days ago), so don't think limited warranty will be honored b/c of ding from drop (even though it worked after fall)

Apple does not repair devices beyond replacing the screen on some models or a battery replacement. They replace the ENTIRE device.
For the Out of Warranty replacement cost, you could have gotten a fully functional replacement device. Instead you chose to spend less to get only the screen replaced and continue to live with additional issues.
Apple will not touch the device now. They will know that it was opened elsewhere and that the replacement screen is not original.

My volume button's no longer working unless headphones are used

Hi all
The last couple of days, my volume button no longer works (it brings up the ringer box on display, but volume is unchangeable) and the ipod volume slider has disappeared from the screen. I can change the volume in settings, but no sound is being played through the internal speakers when used as an ipod (headphones work fine and volume buttons work with headphone). I still have internal speakers working when a phone call is received or an alarm sounds.
I've tried restoring from backup and hard resets, but neither of these things worked. No new software has been installed since the most recent backup so I'm at a loss what to try next so hoping someone has some suggestions

Thanks Deeco, I tried cleaning the headphone jack but that didn't fix it for me (although I'm not sure leaving it on a radiator all night would generally be a good thing so I didn't try that!!
But I have fixed it though
After the headphone jack cleaning didn't fix it, I cleaned out the charger/docking station connector with a plastic toothpick by running it very gently and carefully either side of the strip of pins - and got out a couple of rather large lumps of fluff - and this seems to have fixed the problem for me.
Hope this helps others fix theirs.

My volume adjuster disappeared. How do I get it back?

Today I tried listening to music on my iPhone 4S, only to find that my volume adjuster had disappeared. And just to clarify, when I say that it disappeared, I mean that when I press the volume buttons on my phone, I see the speaker icon but the gauge bar is gone. I tried to test if this issue was only happening in one place, by checking out if I could adjust my volume through my YouTube app. Unforuntately, the volume slider has disappeared from the app as well.
I tested my alarms, etc. and the problem is not my speakers -- my phone is still fully functional in this regard.
I can't figure out what I did to cause this change, but I would love any advice you have on how to fix my phone. If it makes any difference, I have already tried restarting it several times.
Thank you in advance for all of your help and advice.

I am also having the same problem as described, but with a slight difference: The sound works fine on my iPhone 4S (running iOS 5.1), can adjust volume, sound is on w/ video apps, youtube, music... then when I plug it into my charger--poof! Sound cuts out... and this is with my ringer on. I don't even get the button clicks or the lock sound when the phone's put to sleep.
I've tried everything: cleaning out charger port/headphone jack, turning phone off and back on, rebooting phone, even restoring phone to factory settings... nothing worked. I'm thinking maybe iOS 5.1 has a bug that's causing this on 4S phones... any way you can fix this? This never happened with my 3GS--it was running iOS 5.1, but I was able to get sound and volume control, even when plugged into the charger, ringer on or off.
Hoping someone from Apple tech support is reading this so they can work on a bug fix asap... this is just ridiculous!

Music and videos start playing fine but randomly stop and the volume bar disappears

I have an iPhone 4S and run 6.1.3. I start to play music or videos (youtube, ESPN, Netflix, any) and they start to play fine but then randomly stop. The volume bar disappears as well. But then it reappears and I can play it again. When I do so it plays about 30 seconds, sometimes less, and pauses again. I have to repeat the process. Any idea how to fix or what might be causing the problem?

Try a reset:
- hold both the home button and sleep/wake button down at the same time
- the iPhone will turn off(keep holding) but as soon as you see the apple logo appear release both buttons
Also make sure none of the LCI have been set off especially the one in the charging dock of the iPhone. Read the article below for help in checking this:

HT5642 After installing iOS6.1 my volume buttons dont work as they should how do i fix this!?

As per description - the phone works but the volume buttons do not show the sliding scale of volume and if you try and play music or watch a film etc you cant get sound. If you plug headphones in it works as normal.
any ideas how to fix this please - the 6.1 update caused it

"Cleaning" your phone isn't the solution, it doesn't work, and I don't konw why people keep suggesting this "fix". This is a software issue affecting a small portion of 4s users, and to date no fix. My phone is always clean, it's always updated, and whatever other simple fix you can think of, I've done, still volume issues. A dirty port wouldn't cause the volume slider to disappear. If somone comes up with something that is actually a fix, and not old school Nintendo "blow in it" type advice, I would love to hear it.

The icon for volume has disappeared and I cannot get it back....

The icon ;in my task bar for the volume has disappeared and I cannot get it back. I tried the customization feature, and it says that the icon is visible but it is not. then it says the feature will appear when it become available??? When will that be and why has it gone?

Is this a laptop? If so i have that problem periodically. Turn over the laptop >Take out the battery> turn over the laptop again> push/ hold the power button about 15 seconds> reinstall battery. This worked for me.

Volume button for going down not workig?

Hi, ive tryed to restore and reset my ipod using backup, with itunes, then i tried icloud. The volume button works fine when i turn it up, but whrn i try to turn it down, it wont even appear. When i turn it off it will turn down when i turn my ipod back on, this started happening after i restored it. Before i even restored it, the voulume would go up and down by itself, so i only got some progress. on friday i dropped my ipod in the sink while the water was running, but only for a couple secs. thoug, and everything else works perfectly fine. so i put in rice overnight, but the volume was still a problem. But thr thing is, i see other people have this problem, but because of the update, so any ideas? is there anything else i could do to for the volume? please help!!!!!!!!!!
P.s. i checked inside the ipod jack thing, and its white, so i know theres no water damage. and the thing wont disappear, untill i turn up the volume, but it still stays sometimes, and disappears when i turn the volume up.

My speaker doesn't work when I try to listen to music or open up a quick time file, however they seem to work perfectly when I listen to a voice memo (p.s. the volume slider disappears in a song page and even in the multi tasking bar)

Thanks for your solution, it wasn't quite what solved the problem but i remembered that i had a bit of salt water on my phone recently and spraying the charging port with an anti-oxide spray solved my problem, do you mind if i ask, how is the charging port related with the volume or/and speakers?

Iphone 4 volume buttons not working

iphone 4 volume and mute buttons not working, checked all settings they are all fine and when headphones in it works??? When I take out headphones the volum buttons do not work, when phone rings or text receives only vibrates???? HELP!!!!

This could be due to some debris or dirt inside the headphones jack that makes the iPhone think that the headphones are connected even when they are not.
Try to see if you can clean the jack being very careful, with canned air as sold in electronics store. Some people have been successful by introducing and withdrawing the headphones jack several times in a row to displace whatever is in there if it is lodged in.
Avoid introducing anything else like a pointed object. You could damage the jack.
If all of this does not work, I would try first resetting the phone by holding the home button and the power button together for about 15 seconds or until the whilte apple appears, then waiting until the phone resets. If the problem continues after this, take it to an Apple Store to see what they believe should be done.

Hp envy 6 1040EW audio volume buttons don't work

hello, i'm new to the forum
i have a problem with my HP Envy Ultrabook 1040EW with the volume buttons (f9, f10 and f11 )
they will only work when i have opened the beats audio application or i've clicked on the speaker sign
were you can slide the volume up and down.
if anyone has the answer or the same issue please reply.
Thank you very much

BartB,
Access the BIOS menu and reset the factory defaults.
1.       Shut down the laptop
2.       Restart it and tap the F10 key repeatedly
3.       It should lead you into the BIOS menu
4.       Press F9 to load defaults and then F10 to save and exit
The compuer should then restart and take you back to your main desktop screen. Once there test out those 3 keys.
Please respond back with your results.
Thanks

My volume buttons have ceased to work when I want to use the built-in speakers, however they will work when I use my headphones....help!

This thread concerns IOS 7.1.2. update and the subsequent loss of volume button functionality and use of internal speakers.
Please can someone help from the mac team!
It's not a jailbreak phone. The phone is a replacement from Apple and the volume buttons are virtually won't work for certain functions on the phone. Here are the symptoms:
When the volume buttons are pressed on the home screen i get "ringer" and the speaker symbol appear but nothing more (ie. +/- volume)
When playing back from iTunes with no headphones in, I get nothing through the internal speakers, nor do the volume buttons work, nor is the volume slider visable.
When i playback Youtube content with no headphones in, I get nothing through the internal speakers, nor do the volume buttons work, nor is the volume slider visable.
With headphones plugged in sound is audible and volume buttons work.
Whilst using voicemail, (no headphones connected) i can play the message through the speakers and control volume using side buttons.
I have restored the phone and this has not fixed the problem.
iPhone 4S, iOS 7.1.2. upgrade

Hey there jeremy,
It sounds like your Volume buttons aren't working correctly and you are also not getting sound from your built in speaker. I would start by quitting all the running apps on your phone:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
When you have done that restart the phone and test the issue again:
iOS: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the best,
Sterling

How do you increase the voicemail volume on an iPhone 4s ( Verizon ). The phone volume is fine. It is when I retrieve voicemails. Even the speakerphone is faint. I have adjusted the side volume buttons and the volume control in settings.What am I missing?

How do I increase the voicemail volume on an iPhone 4s ( Verizon )? The phone volume is fine. I have adjusted both side volume buttons as well as the volume control in settings.

Number one - that person has given you false information...the Apple store genius bar supports all Apple products whether in or out of warranty. Checking is free, service on an out of warranty item is not free.
Try a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears.
Since you show that you have iOS 7.0.3 you might want to update that iOS to 7.0.4...plug the iPhone in so you are on a solid power source, then while on a WiFi go to Settings > General > Software Update and update to 7.0.4.

How do I turn off the automatic full screen feature that makes the top bar (with the minimize buttons) disappear?

I just downloaded Firefox 4 on a Dell laptop with WinXP. When I'm in a browser window the window resizes automatically and the bar at the top (with the minimize, full and close buttons) disappears. When I drag the cursor up to the top the window resizes again and that top bar appears. Makes me crazy. How do I turn it off?

I'm not aware of the behavior you're describing. I've never seen it, and just tested it for myself. I cannot get windows to zoom to full screen just from moving them to or along the top of the screen. Is this only happening in Photoshop? If so, it may be a Photoshop issue. If not, have you installed any kind of third-party software that might be doing that? Try rebooting in safe mode and see if the problem persists then. If it doesn't, but comes back when you reboot normally, the problem is caused by some third-party software you have installed.
