Volume changes when ipod is tilted

This morning while I was headed out for my morning commute, I started my music and walked out the door. As I walked the volume changed - so, thinking it was being changed in my pocket I took it out and tilted it toward me. The volume went down without me touching it. I tilted it away from me and it went back up. I tilted it back and it went down again. Locking the ipod seemed to stop it - but I'm wondering if this thing is on it's last legs and to expect to buy another soon? Or if it's a fixable thing that others have encountered. I've had this ipod for ~6 years and I would hate to lose it now. 

Turn off sound enhancer and sound check features in iTunes.
and set iTunes volume to maximum - this iTunes slider is like the master slider in Logic, only 0 in iTunes is the maximum value:
I found it helps to always adjust your actual listening level with hardware controls (interface, amp, etc) and keep all audio apps at unity gain - only mix in Logics' mixer. It keeps things that are already complicated just a bit easier.

  • Volume changes when headphone are plugged, but not when they are unplugged.

    Hi!
    Recently I been having an issue with my Macbook Pro 13.
    When I connect my headphones to the MBP, the volume changes (as it should be), but when I take them out it doesn't return to normal, it just stays where it was when the headphones were connected.
    Now, if i mute my internal speakers and connect the headphones the volume changes, but when i take them off, the volume returns to mute. So the problem is when both (internal speakers and headphones) are set to different volumes.
    Here's a video that shows what happens in sound control panel (it's in spanish, "Auriculares"= Headphones and "Altavoces Internos"= Internal Speakers)

    Does anyone else have this issue?
    Thanks for your answers!

    Try a hard reset of the Nano. To do this, press and hold both the Select (Center) and Menu buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear.
    I assume you have double checked to make sure you are plugging the headset all the way in meaning the white part of the headset is flush with the body of the Nano?

  • My volume changes when songs change on 4S

    This has been happening for a while now on my iPhone 4S i got in January. It started a few months ago. I'll change a song or when the song changes, the volume will be noticeably different. It seems it goes louder when I click to the right for the next song but when I click to the left for the previous song it gets quieter. What causes this and how can I fix it?

    Share one calendar on iCloud.  Otherwise it will think the calendar is unique to each device.

  • Song changes when iPod orientation changes

    Hoping someone can help me fix this issue. For some reason when I turn my iPod on its side the song I'm listening to will suddenly change. The display changes to a list of album covers and I need to straighten my iPod and press the Menu button and then Play to start the song again. Is there a way to "lock" a setting so when the iPod's orientation changes it doesn't start playing another song or switch to a display of album covers?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hello Kyle,
    A shot in the dark, but have you checked to make sure you don't have the *Shake to Shuffle* option enabled on the iPod? To check, head to *Settings > Playback*, choose Shake, and then make sure you have it set to Off.

  • IPhone speaker volume changes when connected to apple tv

    If anyone has had this problem as well I would be interested but when I first got my iPhone 4S I realized it was loud. After disconnecting from the apple tv my max volume is lower. When I reconnect to the apple tv (by using it to play music from my phone) the my volume is louder again. Is this a bug or just my phone. Lol. And yes my volume is maxed out in both situations. It's almost like the speakers get boosted when connected to a different audio source.

    You would need to connect the speakers to the apple tv if that is where the video is playing.

  • Volume Changes when File is Exported as aiff...

    Hello, I am aiming to export my audio files to aiff however, when I open the exported file with iTunes, the level of the volume is significantly lower than it was in the Logic playback. Can someone recommend how to correct this so that the volume stays consistent from one file type to another?
    Thanks!

  • Volume changing when locking iphone 5

    Hi I noticed a couple of times that for some reason after listening to music for a while suddenly the volume starts acting funny. When I lock the Iphone while listening to music the volume increase to the max. and If I unlock the iphone the volume goes to the level I had it before. and this repeats. If locked (using lock button at the top) the volume goes to max again if unlocked the volume goes to the level I had it. I had to restart the music app to stop this. Is this a known bug? Any thoughts?
    Regards, 

    Hey dargan,
    Thanks for the question. Dust and debris can definitely lead to this issue. If there is any sort of debris in the headphone or lighting port, the phone might think that there’s an accessory connected. For more information, see this resource:

  • Sound volume changes when I type

    The sound icon comes up when I type o, p, [, 9, 0, 0, - in any program and the sound toggles off and on. This started about a month ago. I've run virus check software and found nothing. Any advice?

    I think nobody was in similar situation.
    But i found what was the problem. Voice Over was ON!  :-)
    Simply hit Command+F5 and it's ok now.

  • Volume control will not respond when iPod connected to Griffin iTrip

    When I connect the iPod Classic 80GB from the bottom to the Griffin iTrip and to a 12 volt source, and listen to the music on an external FM radio, as in a boat, I cannot change the volume through the wheel of the iPod. I have to go to the radio to change volume.
    What do I have to do so that the volume can be changed from the wheel of the iPod?
    I would appreciate very much the solution to this problem.
    Suribe

    This is normal - cant adjust the volume from the iPod if we connect it via dock (the bottom of the iPod). If you would like to adjust the volume with the wheel of the iPod, then you should plug your iPod via its earphone jack - of course, different cable i.e. minijack to RCA audio cable

  • Why does my iPod automatically adjust it's volume setting when I plug in different headphones?

    So, I frequently switch between a pair of earpods and a different type of headphone, and when I switch, my iPod volume control self-adjusts.  What is it doing?  Is it something to do with imedance?
    Thanks!
    Jason

    Hello,
    Apple has a profile for each headphone you just put. When you plug a pair of headphones, and you don't change the volume, the volume changes itself to the previous time you putted the same headphones. This happen because the profile saves itself in a cache inside the Apple filesystem. If there were no cache, everytime you connect a pair of headphones, you will **** your ears. So that's the problem here.
    Cheers.

    - How did you dlete stuff from the iPod? If you have a 1G or 2G iPod and deleted the stuff by going to Settings>Genera.>Reset>Erase aall contents and settings without being connected to a power source, the battery dies before he erase was comleted since it can take hour.

    - Connect to a chaging sour for three hours.
    - Reset the iPod and then connect to the computer and try to restore va iTunes.
    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.
    - Next try placing the iPod in recovery moe and then try to restore. For recovery mode:

  • Main "Play Control" volume changes on its own when I open and close WinDVD or Winfast

    Main "Play Control" volume changes on its own when I open these programs, and when they're closed the main volume resets to where it was before the program was opened.
    Surely I'm not the only one who has had this problem before.. I've had the problem with both Creative soundcards I've owned, before and after different drivers installations.
    It can be very irritating and can potentially lead to damaged speakers if I'm not paying close attention to what my various volume knobs are set at before and after I open these programs.
    I appreciate any and all input, thankyou.

    I had to edit to reflect its Mavericks 10.9
