Volume buttons loose

I notice my volume buttons are slightly loose. I went to the apple store and almost every iPhone 4 on display had either the lock/unlock or home or volume buttons loose...I only have the volume button. I would hate to swap it and get one with the home button loose.
Any one else with volume button loose?

What constitutes a loose VOLUME button and not a HOME button is when you move it up and down it feels loose instead of being rock solid like I have seen on some iP4...and I find it annoying. Some would not...call it OCD if you like but I don't like it. Now the thing is that I know there are more people having issues with HOME loose button which is worse in my opinin so I would hate exchanging mine and get solid VOLUME button but loose HOME or ON/OFF buttons!

Ipad mini loose volume buttons

I had my ipad mini with retina display for 2 weeks now and my volume buttons are loose. I'm very happy with my ipad but the fact that my volume buttons are loose just bothers and I would hate to go back to apple to complain about such a small issue. Is there a possibility for the loose volume button to break in the future?

It might. You need to make an appointment at your local apple store, take it in and have them look at it. Before you go in, be sure to back everything up because apple stores don't repair in store, they swap your malfunctioning device for a replacement.

Loose volume button. help

I bought a iPad mini with retina display a couple days ago and the upper volume button slightly moves when you gently press it. My lower volume button and the off button do not do this. Is this normal?

We can't make your decision for you. If YOU feel it is a problem, then by all means, take it back and get one to replace it.

Ipad 3g volume buttons, sleep, and rotation stopped working

Yesterday, the volume buttons, mute switch, sleep button, and rotation all stopped working at the same time on my Ipad 3. The top button still works for powering on/off and resetting the Ipad. I did notice the unit was warmer than usual when it happened, but have seen that in the past after extensive use.
My hunch is that it's the button and ribbon causing the problem internally - either stopped working or came loose. Any thoughts or experiences from others is appreciated.

Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If there is, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation 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
If there isn't a lock symbol then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

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

All the best,

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.

There is something wrong with the volumes buttons in my macbook pro, every time i pressed the one who raises the volume, it leads me to the screen where (i do not no what its called) the background is black with the date and time and a calculator.

However, when i lower it, my safari tab goes out of the screen. What do you guys think i should do? I'm getting very nervous.

hey HAbrakian!
You may want to try using the information in this article to adjust the behavior of your function keys to see if that resolves the behavior:

Volume button dont work correctly

Hello,
I have iPhone 4S on 5.1.1 which I bought in September last year.
Yesterday when I listen to music with my iPhone I found out the the MINUS volume button dont work correctly.
It's need to push him hard to decrease the volume. however the PLUS volume button work correctly.
In addition there is no "click" sound when I press the minus volume button.
what should I do?
I live in ISRAEL and there isn't Apple Store here so the only solution for me is to contact the carrier which I bought the iPhone from them but they probably will require payment for the repair.

sorry but i actually need to use the volume buttons Jujusoccer11
i've tried resetting already and restoring from back up already but still has the same problem lllaass,
i'll try restoring to factory defaults now, i hope it works

My volume button for higher volume(F12) is not working whereas mute and lower volume(F10 and F11) buttons are working, what should I do?

My volume button for higher volume is not working

I think there is a Windows bootcamp application that will recognize those keys. The bootcamp stuff is here: http://www.apple.com/support/bootcamp/
I think it is called bootcamp assistant. Look here: http://www.mac-guides-and-solutions.com/boot-camp-assistant.html

The volume button on my ipod touch doesn't work unless headphones are plugged in?

Hi there,
So I have had this ipod for a while now but just recently it's doing this thing where i can press the side volume buttons but they don't do anything unless the earphones are plugged in. i have reset it a number of times and had it plugged into my computer to charge it completely and nothing works. when i go to play music on the ipod without the headphones, the slider doesn't even show up...any suggestions??

Try restoreing the iPOd, first from backup and then to factory defaults /new iPOd if the problem persists. If you still have the problem then you likely have a defective headphone jack.
In that case I would make an appointment at the Genisu Bar of an Apple store to confirm.
Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for:
Apple - Support - iPod - Repair pricing
A third-party place is less expensive. Here is one, Google for more.

Okay before my ipod power and volume buttons werent working but i never dropped it, then one day i was in a app and my ipod froze so i held the home button down and the screen went a bright green color and isnt showing up in itunes

okay I just recently bought a ipod touch 4thG and im already having issues. recently the power and volume buttons stopped working after i syncd my ipod, i shrugged it off figuring it would come back i could live without it. but today I was on my ipod while it was charging and the screen just froze so i pressed and held the home button (being that's the only button that actually works) then the screen turned this bright yellowish lime green color and its not responding to ANYTHING! my computer isnt even reading it when i plug it up into itunes! so what should i do? can anyone help me? i feel like i just wasted $200...

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

Is it possible to lock the volume buttons on my iPod Touch?

Something is forcing the volume down button on my iPod down all the time. Because the volume is constantly being turned down the volume square is always up in the middle of my iPod. Rather than having to replace the whole volume down button or the whole iPod, is there a way to simply lock the volume buttons on the side of the iPod?

There is no way to lock them. I would work through the general troubleshooting outlined here to rule out the possibility of a software, although it sounds more like a hardware one.
