Why did I lose system sounds on my iPad 2?

Why have I lost all system sounds (lock click, keyboard clicks, new email notification) on my iPad 2? All Settings are set to "on."

Try flipping the switch above the volume rocker on the sdie of the iPad and see if you get the sounds back. If not, double tap the home button to bring up the task bar. Swipe all the way to right in the task bar and see if there's is a speaker icon in there all the way on the left. If so tap it and you should get the system sounds back.
You can set the side switch to mute system sounds - Settings>General>Set Side Switch to: lock rotation or mute.
If the switch is set for mute - it mutes system sounds. If the switch is set to lock the screen rotation, then you mute the system sounds from the task bar.

  • Why did I lose volume control on my iPad 2?

    I checked the settings and system sounds are not muted. I double clicked the home button and there is no knob on the volume controls. Music plays in head phones as well as when the ringer is adjusted in Settings. I have tried a restart as well as a reset or hard reboot. Will try a full devise restore and load a backup but doubt that helps. What do I do?

  • Why did I lose my sound when I updated to 6.1?

    I just updated my iPad and now the sound control is not there

    No, it is not happening to a lot of people.
    Those that are smart enough to backup their important data regularly have no issues at all.
    For what silly reason would anyone attempt an update on their device without first ensuring a backup of all the important data on the device existed?
    For what silly reason would any intelligent person rely on a device so easily lost/stolen or damaged as sole storage of important data?
    Stop being a silly person... take responsibility for ensuring that YOUR data is safe, secure, and backed up.  It is no one's fault but the user if they lose data.

  • Speaker icon is gone. why did everyone lose their sound 9/17?

    I am using windows 7 on CQ57-339WM. I did install (malware byte) yesterday. This was in effort to remove FUNMOODS which is the biggest garbage and intrusive to my system.Now, My speaaker icon has totally vanished.
    Can anyone help get my speaker icon back and help me permanently block Funmoods. I have uninstalled, added malware, and it still somehow creeps back onto my computer

    Hi
    Right click in the task bar near the time display and you will get a pop up menu.
    Click on properties. Under Notification Area Click Customize select Show icon and notifications 
    Under system icons to always show, check volume. 
    Click Apply.  
    Also, if you don't want inactive icons to be hidden, make sure that box is not checked. 
    Let us know how it goes!

  • When I downloaded Mozilla Firefox 4.0 Beta 10 I lost all my Bookmarks. I went back to using the older version and get the message that it is no longer supported or covered by virus protection. Why did I lose my Bookmarks?

    Why did I lose my Bookmarks?

    Clarification:
    I believe now you potentially lose all extensions, plug-ins when you use the new reset function, but you will let me know.
    If that is the case, your find corrupt file method maybe better. However, I reviewed the two help articles and there appear to be more files than just the delete search.json file and a possible search.sqlite file in the Firefox Profile Folder. I am confused. Then I have to find the folders. I think help articles mentioned how to find the profile containing the files, but not sure.

    why did i lose my contacts after IOS 8.1.1 update?

        @cstigall - Were you able to get your contacts reversed? Sometimes that happens when you share or are logged in to the wrong Apple ID as Gina suggested.
    If you need further assistance, please let us know so we can help out!
    Thank you both, and take care!

  • HT1386 why did I lose all my contacts when I installed new 5.1 version???

    Why did I lose all of my contacts when I installed 5.1.1 version on my iphone 4? I did back-up and got everything else back except the contacts???

    What address book or cloud service were you syncing your contacts with before the update? They should still be there.
    Contact information is only part of the backup in order to maintain your favorites and recent calls list. Contacts are meant to be synced to a cloud service or address book.

  • Why did I lose my old documents on Pages and Numbers? I didnt need a new version. Ive been printing out the same handouts for 8 years

    Why did I lose my old documents on Pages and Numbers when I updated my computer. I didnt need a new version. I have been using the same hand outs for 8 years. Some I can see, some say you cant open unless you buy numbers.....again

    The old version of iWork should still be on your computer.
    Check in Applications (Command-Shift-A) for an iWork '09 folder.

  • Why do I lose the sound effects for mail on my MBA and not the other Macs I have? Running ML.

    Why do I lose the sound effects in Mail for sending and receiving on my MBA and not on my other Macs? Running Mountain Lion. The problerm seems to be related to the sleep mode. When the MBA sleeps and then wakes up the sounds are missing. If I shut down and restart the machine the sounds will be back but only last until the maching goes through a sleep cycle.

    Primarily because, as ron245 points out, there is only ONE speaker on the bottom.

  • Why did I lose all of my docs in pages?

    why did I lose all of my documents in Pages?

    I'm being "snarky" for asking you to actually provide some information?
    Don't be so self obsessed as to imagine that we are constantly looking over your shoulder at what you are doing.
    All we have to go on is what you choose to tell us. If you choose not to, what do you expect?
    You are not alone in the childish "Mom, I can't find it!?" style questions. It gets wearisome playing 20 questions to just get to the point where you have a comprehendable question.
    We still don't know what version of Pages.
    Saved documents don't live in Pages, they are on your hard drive, on a server or some other device.
    "ALL" your documents is comprehensive. So you have no documents of any description left on your Mac (now that we know it is a Mac) or anywhere else?
    AS Peggy pointed out, if you never saved the document, it is gone.
    We are still struggling to find out what you are talking about.

  • Why did I lose my movies i purchesed ?

    I got a message for an update for my Itunes, I downloaded the update, and lost 4 movies i paied for, Why did I lose my movies? How do i get them back on to my computer?

    I would guess that you lost them because you failed to do the basics.  It has always been very basic to always back up your computer, most especially before any update.
    Have you failed to do this?
    If so, not good, then you can redownload some itunes purchases in some countries:
    Download previous purchases from the iTunes Store - Support - Apple
