Volume. Why is it so low?

Why the volume of music in iTunes is so low in my iMac while other apps, including dvd player and other players are much more louder? Thanks

WOW... I'm new at the whole mac thing, but I'm not new to computers...
I'm glad I found someone who was asking about the same type of problem that I was having... and yes, sadly it's taken me months and this post to realize that the volumn on the slider on itunes was all the way down... At least my brother couldn't figure it out either... LOL
Thanks for pointing out the obvious, for me at least, and ending my months of torturous 'soft music'

Why is the volume of my phone so low in calls ?

Why is the volume of my phone so low in calls ?

Hey there Claudia,
It sounds like the audio from the receiver is low when you are talking on the phone. I found this article for you to help troubleshoot this issue named:
iPhone: Receiver and call audio quality issues
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5196
Receiver
Follow these steps to resolve the issue:
Increase the volume during the call.
Make sure nothing is blocking the receiver. If you're using a protective case or display film, remove it and try again.
Make sure nothing is plugged into the headphone jack or the dock connector.
Check the receiver opening to see if it is clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush.
Try another location with better signal. If the audio issue happens only when on a call, it could be due to the location.
If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or a car kit, try turning off Bluetooth on your device. Learn more about troubleshooting Bluetooth connections.
Restart the iPhone.
Make sure your device is up to date.
If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, contact Apple Support.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
All the very best,
Sterling

The volume of Youtube is extremely low, even maxed out.

I would say that for the past two-three weeks I've been having a problem where my Youtube volume in Firefox is extremely low. In order to hear anything really I have to have my Windows volume at 100%, my speaker volume maxed out, and Youtube volume at its highest.
I Watched the exact same youtube video in chrome and its so LOUD! I had to turn my windows volume to 50% and my speakers way down and it was still louder than Firefox. I searched for similar issues and found one that exactly matched my problem, I even followed the suggested steps to fixing the issue at hand but nothing has worked.
Steps completed so far:
-Fresh install
-Cleared cookies, cache, site preferences and offline data
-re installing flash
-Cleared flash cookies and settings
I dont want to abandon firefox but this issue is extremely annoying and there doesnt seem to be a logical fix available. Any help is appreciated.

Philip,
I want to thank you for your suggestion. There was an issue where the volume for the Firefox application was turned down extremely low resulting in the issue at hand. I have since corrected this thanks to you!
James,
I appreciate you trying to help but I explained in my question that I had the YouTube volume up to 100%.

welcome to the BT community forum where customers help customers and only BT employees are the forum mods
in order for the forum members to help please can you post the adsl stats from your router you may need to 'show detail' to get all stats (if hub enter 192.168.1.254 in your browser and navigate to adsl or if HH4/5 then go to troubleshooting then logs and you are looking for 2 line together when hub last connected to internet and they will show your connection speed and noise margin or if netgear enter 192.168.0.1). Then run btspeedtester (MAC users may have problems). when first test completes then run diagnostic test and post the results ( do not reset the router).
can you enter your phone number and post results remember to delete number https://www.btwholesale.com/includes/adsl/main.html
are you connected directly via a filter to the NTE5 master or test socket or to somewhere else? Is the master the only phone socket in your home?
Have you tried the quiet line test? - dial 17070 option 2 - should hear nothing - best done with a corded phone. if cordless phone you may hear a 'dull hum' which is normal
Someone may then be able to offer help/assistance/suggestions to your problem

When I make an outgoing call the recipient cannot hear me very well as though the volume was turned down very low. However when I activate the speakerphone the recipient can hear me loud and clear. I transferred my SIM Card into a new device Same problem

When I make an outgoing call the recipient cannot hear me very well as though the volume was turned down very low. However when I activate the speakerphone the recipient can hear me loud and clear. I transferred my SIM Card into a new device only to be subjected to the exact same problem. I have reset the phone clearing all the data and updated to the most recent software version available from itunes; and still no improvements. The results of my switching to a new phone would indicate a software issue.
Does anyone out there have this problem and how can it be fixed?
Thanks,
Teresa

Try removing the screen protector that is covering the microphone.
Scratch that; wrong answer. I thought you meant you had trouble hearing.

Why is the sound low on my Ipod? When I have my earbuds in I have to have the volume almost all the way up. I have the volume limit maxed out also. Same thing when I plug it into a boombox

Why does my Ipod play at a low volume? When I have my earbuds in I have to have it at almost full volume, and when I plug it into a boombox it doesn't play as loud as the radio or a cd. I have the volume limit turned all the way up in the settings also. All my songs on my Ipod were burned from cd's(if that helps) thanks.

Sorry, I have the same issue.
So far searching threads here is not coming up with anything.
I have set aside my restore discs, to start the process of ripping the drive clean.
I tried Omni Sweep, but all it did was confirm the space I counted up.
Still does not show what's hidding. 113GB worth on mine.
That software really boggs down the system.
I could not load an email with it running.
Good LUck as well.

Why is volume of Spotify so much lower than all other apps?

So I've just installed the Spotify app on my Sony z3 and the volume is so much lower than all the other audio out puts.. I have no issue listening to audio normally via the normal music player but with Spotify I have to put volume on max and muck about with equaliser... I'm pretty disappointed about this and if there is no solution I doubt I'll continue beyond the trial as is not fit for purpose as it is.. And help is appreciated.

Yeah it also gives the illusion of crappy sound because you can't hear everything. People think it's muffled because it can't play as loud. I even analyzed the audio to see how it compared to other services by normalizing the audio. Everything sounded the same but at the regular volume it sounds muffled. I really wish they would raise the default volume.

Sync it from your iTunes library. Synced media like apps and music are not included in the iPod backup that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

How come sound volume of my macbook is lower than before?

Volume in iPhone 4 significantly lower after headphone use. Anyone else?

I've had this happen a few times already. I'll use headphones for either music or calls, then when I unplug them the overall phone volume is really really low and can't seem to find a way to raise it. I pretty much have to restart the phone. Can anyone shed light on this issue? Thanks!

I believe I am having the same problem though I did not narrow down the cause of the issue until I read your subject line. I know that a few times I have had trouble hearing sound coming out of the bottom of the iPhone (i.e. when you are on a speakerphone call or are playing the music from the phone itself and not the headphones) but for some reason I could not figure out why! Reading your post now makes me believe that there is some sort of correlation between using the headphones (and then pulling them out) and low volume. I wish someone would fix this problem.

Volume on iphone is very low, this is a common problem, Apple Needs to FIX!

I have a new iphone 3GS that I got at the end of July, 2009. Since then i've been having problems with the volume! I called support because i had this problem along with my screen turning blank and freezing up. Support said to take the case off and this might help. well it did help the screen issue (which is kind of dumb when you think about it because the case is supposed to protect the phone and instead it caused it to malfunction!!,wierd), but the volume issue never really changed. I am hearing impaired and I do wear hearing aids, BUT....I have ALWAYS been able to use cell phones that have good loud volume, as i need to remove my aids to use the phone. My LG phone had BEAUTIFUL volume, never had a problem!
So, then I started to do some research and saw this is a very common problem! everyone I know that has an iphone has this problem, and all these people are normal hearing people! So then i decided to just get some really good, superduper headphones, because the headphones that came with the phone were ok, but i had to hold them in my ears.
The other day i bought the new Bose in-ear headphones with superior sound quality and at $130 bucks, they better be and the are compatable with the iphone. But.....again, while actually talking to someone on the phone the sound, even with the headphones and all volumes max'd, was still very low!! and i know its not the headphones because listening to the ipod is fantastic! it must be the phone!!!
I even used the "accessibility" setting that is on the phone and selected the mono audio feature which pushes both L&R sounds through one channel, and still doesnt help!
I even called support back today and one guy said i had to "restore" my phone by plugging it into my computer (not really sure what he means) but we got disconnected and the other guy said that i should bring my phone into the apple store. Both tech guys denied that there are lots of calls or complaints about this....but as you all know from reading the many posts, that this is a very common problem!!!
I think Apple should do the right thing and recall these phones or at least fix them or SOMETHING!!!! this volume issue is internally, because when i make a call and an automated voice comes on, it works fine (majority of the time) but as soon as a live voice comes on the phone, the volume drops! there must be some type of automatic voice adjuster that is just not working properly. I mean i love my phone!!! But....i cant use it!!! And now, im going to have to return my Bose headphones and try to find something else.
Can anyone really help me?????

I agree with you about the volume on the phone itself. (I have 3Gs). It needs to be louder. I also wear hearing aids. However I do think there may be something wrong with your phone because when I connect my earbuds (Klipsh) I get very good volume through them. In fact at full volume it's way too loud. I would push for a replacement phone.
FWIW, my daughter (who also wears hearing aids) has trouble hearing her iphone. It appears to have more to do with the speaker not being lined up with the hearing aid's input. Her audiologist pointed out that some current hearing aids support bluetooth, I think we will get those next time we replace her hearing aids.

The volume of some albums are low on ipod, but normal on itunes

I recently formatted and updated my ipod to use with my new mac, and added all my songs to it. I have adjusted the volume level of all my songs on itunes to about 70%. After listening to some new albums on the ipod through my Bose Sound Dock, I noticed one album in particular was extremely low in volume and quality. I then listened to the album on itunes and it was perfect. So I tried increasing the volume to 100% in itunes for that album, then retransferred it to Ipod. Listened to the album on Sound Dock and it was still low. Tried it in my car through auxillery input on stereo, and it was still low. Tried listening to the album on my headphones and nearly blew my ears off. The volume adjustment on itunes only seems to make a difference when using the headphones, not when using anything else (Sound Dock, Car Stereo).
Is there something you need to do in itunes to make the volume adjusments apply in every situation??
Has anyone else had a problem like this??

My volume is low on itunes compared to music match. It's frustrating as I can barely hear the music in my kitchen. Has anyone figured out what this issue is?
Thanks!

Iphone 5 volume on calls is very low

Loads of people are reporting low volume through the iPhone 5 handset (when holding up to the ear).
An no, there is no film over the speaker !!
When someone calls, the sound is muffled, sounds like a very low bit-rate call. All the volumes are up as high as they go, and i can take the call in a quiet room and it sounds the same (so not the noise-cancelling part).
help, this is most annoying.

Ok after some web searches and no resolution, I took advantage of my user rights (sale of goods act for the uk).
Arranged for tech support to call me and we arranged a replacement.
New phone arrived.
Problem solved
