Volume suddenly drops in iTunes 11.1.4, on 10.9.1

Volume suddenly dropped to VERY low. Turning off sound check helped sligtly, but levels are still abnormally low. This symptom only exists when iTunes is the playbac device. All other sound sources (QuickTime Player, Peak, Logic, DVD Player, etc.) behave normally. What is wrong?

Never mind... somehow I moved the iTunes master volume down!!!! Argh!

Siri problem: volume suddenly drops and screen goes dark when turning phone

Hi, just wondering if anyone else has or had this problem. It's been hard to quantify, but here goes.
A number of time, when I use siri, I will hold the button down to ask a question. Sometimes the volume will drop to a very quiet level so I can barely hear the response. Then the volume will pop right back up to its normal volume. The screen also goes black at this time, and when the volume pops back up, the screen will show the normal info it should at that time, such as what I said, or the clock if I asked for the time, or siri's quote, etc.
Many times I will pick up my phone from a flat surface and turn it on its side as if making a call, and that is when this will happen, as opposed to me holding it flat. It also seems to occur in the morning, when the phone has been asleep overnight or it may be from cooler morning temps.
Any ideas as to whether this is a hardware problem? I've only had the phones couple of months. It's happened so many times now I'm finally seeing this pattern I described.
Thank you for any feedback!
Ps... I've never had this problem with my ipad 3rd gen, even though I've truest to recreate the conditions, turning it, trying first thing in the morning and so on.

The Basic Troubleshooting Steps are:
Restart... Reset... Restore from Backup... Restore as New...
Restart / Reset

Backing up, Updating and Restoring

If you try all these Steps and you still have issues... Then a Visit to an Apple Store or AASP (Authorized Apple Service Provider) is the Next Step...
Be sure to make an appointment first...

Volume level suddenly drops by itself after OS4, wont turn up again.

I installed OS4 on my ipod touch 2G a few days ago. The installation went ok but ever since, when playing songs, the volume randomly drops to a barely audible level on its own. Even if I then turn it up with the slider or side buttons it is barely any louder. Sometimes it will jump back to normal if I press pause a couple of times but most times I have had to do a soft reset to get it back. On a couple of occasions the sound disappeared completely.
Anyone else had this happen since OS4?

Try [RESETTING_|http://www.apple.com/support/ipodtouch/assistant/ipodtouch/#section2] your iPod Touch and see if that solves it.

GoodReaderUSB originally worked by transferring files to a special location on a user’s iPhone, which iPhone’s GoodReader app was able to access. However, accessing this location was a violation of Apple’s iPhone SDK Agreement, because the app had to access files outside its own private storage space, which is forbidden by Apple.
Because of this, your only choice to fix this. at this point, may be to restore your phone as a "new" device in itunes and NOT from backup. Follow this by syncing your content back to your phone. Unfortunately, ALL saved data on your phone will be lost.

My Nano 6th gen volume randomly drops to minimum, help?

I've had my nano for about two years now, and out of the blue it suddenly decided that when I turn the volume up it should turn the volume down to nothing. The screen was lit, and I watched the volume bar drop, but I wasn't pressing anything. I tried to turn it up twice more before the volume would stay. I've never heard of this happening before, so I'm really worried. Does anyone know what's going on?

That is usually a sign that moisture has come into contact with the iPod causing it short out and do all kinds of weird things such as turning the volume down. This same problem has occurted with several users who workout with their Nano.
You can try leaving the Nano in a sealed bag of uncooked rice to let all the moisture be absorbed. If that doesn't help your iPod will likely need to be serviced.

When I am on Firefox, my Netzero email page suddenly dropped to very small print. AOL OK. How do I increase size of the print so I can read the email?

I was using Firefox to read my Netzero email. The print suddenly dropped down to very small and I have difficulty reading the email. Netzero said to oper Mozilla Firefox, click "tools", click "options", and click "content" to change the font to a bigger size. But when I clicked the brown "Firefox" button on the Firefox page, I do not see the buttons Netzero told me to click. Can you tell me what they are referring to or just tell me how to increase the size of the font when I am reading email on Netzero. AOL email font size was not affected when I clicked AOL to read the email there.

See this and reset the zoom level there: <br />

Volume Muted...Itunes won't play since upgrade

I have just upgraded to Mountain Lion.
Has anybody else had issues with the volume being muted.
also
Itune will not play any songs, just sits with the timer at 0
has anybody resolved this?

Environment: New MacBook Pro /w Retina (2012.09.04), Mac OS X 10.8
Summary: When trying to play a song in iTunes, either as a local song or from another computers share, the song will never start eventhough the play indicator says its play (it will always be stuck on 0:00:00)
Work Around:
     (Novice Users)
     From Spotlight search for "Airplay" which should provide results which includes the "System Preferences: Display". Click on this item.
     Near the bottom of the window, you will see the "Aiplay mirroring" which will most likely be set to "Off".
     Click on the word "Off" once, and the list will pop-down.
     Click on the world "Off" again and the list will close.
     You are now done and the issue is fixed.
     (Intermediate Users)
     Go to the Display settings in System Preferences
     Reselect your current setting. For me this meant just clicking on Off.
     Your done.

When I watch YouTube videos on my iPhone 5 it sometimes suddenly drops in quality so much the whole video goes blurry and it's almost impossible to watch anything?? Help also I think it might have to do with my wifi but I'm not sure. Sometimes I also try to skip to sections of a vid and it just lags for ages and nothing happens.

Good for you! I haven't tried it, but I'm sure it works.

Sudden drop in transfer speed

I have been trying out a WRT1900AC router for about a week and just developed a MAJOR drop in speed from the router to the computer while doing a file transfer:
This thing has been sending files to and from the router's esata and USB3 port at over 50 MB/s until just now.
I can still write to the drives attached to the router at 50MB/s + all day long. Getting files from the drives have suddenly dropped to 300Kb/s on the esata and the USB3 ports
Tried rebooting/powercycling the router, disconnected the drives and reconnected them, same result.
Anyone else run into this?
Funny, I just got done posting in another thread how fast this thing moved files to and from external storage. Now this,,,,,,
Maybe the universe is telling me not to keep this router?

1. What file sizes do you usually transfer? What are the file types?
For testing I used larger files (IE: ISO files, larger zipped files, etc.) rather than just copying folders or small files.
2. Are the files being transferred to and from your computer and a storage drive (hooked to the WRT1900AC)?
Files were moved all over: from a WD Mycloud (hooked up to 8 port gigabit netgear switch) to my computer. Also have a Toshiba 1TB USB3 drive plugged into the WRT1900AC USB3 port and an older WD 2 x1TB enclosure hooked into the WRT1900AC via the eSATA port. For testing I moved files all over the place: From the Esata to the computer, to the USB drive, to the WD Mycloud and back again. Also mixed up going from point A to B, then from point C to point B, etc. In all cases the slowest speed I get is 50MB/s + with some transfers topping out at 90MB/s!!!
3. If it's a storage drive, does it have USB3 ports as well?
Yes
4. What is the link speed of your computer?
Wired Gigalan
Routers do not usually need to be rebooted every now and then. They should be running 24/7. My guess is, the wired or wireless adapter may have adjusted speeds consequently dropping file transfer speeds.
Agreed. I can count on one hand how many times I had to reboot my last router over the 2+ years I had it.
Heres the other thing: the need to reboot is not just associated with file transfers. I get the "cant connect with the WRT1900AC" message just going into the user interface from time to time as well as being unable to see storage folders in Windows explorer from time to time. In these cases I can still go online, surfing and doing whatever. The router (according to the Smartlink page) just seems to disappear. Which doesnt make sense since if the router cant be seen online, how is it that I can still go online?
Anywho, I still have this week before I lose the ability to return/exchange it at Best Buy. Will see how things go.
And thanks for the reply and suggestions,,,,,,,,,,

No drag 'n drop from itunes to finder

I see a lot of quenstions about drag and drop in itunes, or from finder to itunes, but when I want to copy something out of itunes to a thumb drive, it doesn't work.
at first I can drag n drop and it start copying, but at one moment, it just won't copy. When I hover over the finder screen with my load of songs, they won't stick. for a brief moment it worked again after a restart of my macbook, but this was one time only. Then it wasn't possible again.
Anybody with the same problem or maybe a solution?

http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
This of course presumes it's Apple's problem to correct, and not a design change with Toast. Meanwhile, Toast (at least Toast 10) provides the Media Browser with which to select from your iTunes library.
I also presume that you're only giving your friends tracks that are in the public domain or of which they already own legal copies, yes?

What do you do when you download a show and it has no sound? ( the volume is up on itunes and my computer)

what do you do when you download a show and it has no sound? ( the volume is up on itunes and my computer)

That's what iTunes -> Preferences -> Playback -> Sound Check does - equalizes the volume across tracks to provide a more-even playback.

BT Got back 24hrs later and said there was a fault between exchange and our house which was now fixed, however, no explanation whether this was the cause of the previous problems. Also, yesterday evening HH4 rebooted and after checking the event logs a new PPoE session had started. Called them again and they told me BT would still be carrying out checks on the line - whether that was the case or not I'm not sure as that happened at the start of all this three weeks ago (a new PPoE session started during middle of night) prior to this everything was fine since installation on 31st July.
Also ip profile has dropped from approx 38Mbps to 34Mbps since installation and no-one can explain why.

BT Inifinity - Speed and Latency - Sudden Drop in ...

Hi All,
I hope someone can help me here, I'm really just looking for some advice and an opinion. I have had BT Infiinity for around a year now, and, barring the first few weeks, i have had a stable connection of around 68000kbps down (sync) and 20000kbps up (sync), with a usually low ping of around 5ms to most UK Servers.
The last few weeks i have had a sudden drop in sync to around 54000kbps, showing attainable as 62000kbps, up speed has also dropped a few meg. to top this off, the interleaving depth has gone from a solid fast-path that i used to have, and was completely stable. to a depth of 1050 (down), up is strangely still on fast-path though.
do you think i have a line fault or is something effecting noise on my line? The biggest bug bear for me about this is the latency, as I am an an avid online gamer, when I'm not working or entertaining my 1 year old son.
Before i even touch a gaming server, i seem to have a ping of around 20-35ms, which as other gamers will know, is not good.
i have included a few graphs for the ones who know more about VDSL than i do, as my FEC errors seem unusually high.
Thanks in advance peeps :-)

Hi john014,
Thanks for posting. Have you tried the quiet line test? Dial 17070 option 2, it should be quiet but if you’re getting any noise on the line we’ll need to look into that for you.
If it’s all clear can you try posting a few tracerts i.e. one to the game and one to the BC site for comparison. I’m sure we can help with this.
Cheers
David

Sudden drop of speed - internet vitually unusable ...

Hi all
I had a look round the service status page and saw nothing for my area, so wondering if it's just me, but last night as I was playing my usual evening online poker, I basically lost all connection.
Now, I'm on Total Broadband Unlimited, have a Home Hub v2, and have done since February. Am in the WD17 area, and nothing has changed from when it's been working fine all these months.
So, as I was merrily playing along, the 54.0 Mbps connection suddenly drops out to..... 1.0 Mbps. And stays there. Do a Hub reset - no improvement.
So come back from work today to see if there's any improvement - and marginally. It's now randomly fluctuating between 2, 11, 15, 18 & 54. Still pretty much unusable.
Any ideas?
