Why does iphone has common volume control for ringer as well as Alarm?

Why does iphone has common volume control for ringer as well as Alarm? which is quite unusual. For Exp, In case i lower down my ringer for some reason instead of silent and forget to increase before i sleep, my morning alarm also remains at the same ringer level volume at which i can miss the alarm. Is it due to some specific reason or i have missed something to change in settings. Other phone like Samsung etc, they have separate volume control for ringer and to an extent, Nokia rings for Alarm even if the battery is completely discharged.

I have booked an appointment at my nearest Genius Bar which is 40 minutes away next week, so do I need a reciept or is the warranty checked from the serial number?
No receipt needed.
and is it covered under Apple's 12 month warranty?
It very well may be covered, depending on what Apple finds.

Mavericks has disabled volume control for mouse and headphones

Since updating to Mavericks, my mouse (Mad Catz MMO7) has lost the ability to control volume (all other features like mission control still work). Also my Bose QC 15 headphones lost the ability to control volume as well. Is there some kind of accessability option that needs to be enabled or is this just a bug?

Sometimes my Volume controls will stop working and I'll have to chill for a second, then try to move the volume (with my keyboard) in the opposite direction I was just trying to go on my mouse, and after a few tries, it'll work. Try that.

Probably a noob question, but why does the Mac OSX volume control window...

...randomly pop up sometimes. I think I'm triggering it, but I don't know how.

It pops up when you use a dock and control the volume or when your sliding volume and you press the Home button. Its there so you won't have to navigate to the Music app and see the volume

Why did i get a different headphone from the one in the pic? It has no volume control button.

I am really dissapointed with my order. I bought an apple headphone with remote and mic online, and i received a headphone that doesnt look and function the same as the one advertised. It has no volume control button with the + and - signs. This is the second pairs i bought the headphone and this one definitely looks different from the pairs i had previously. I hope someone can clarify this thing, and it's really troublesome if i wanted to return the headphone.

Are you sure you ordered the earphones WITH remote and volume control? Look at your bill; does it say something like "with remote and mic"? I think you should contact Apple Store for their assistance. Perhaps they really made a mistake and shipped you some old stock item. I agree, shipping and reshipping takes time and is troublesome. Hope you'll find a solution though.

Gen 5 has lost volume control of headphones and also radio does not recognize headphones are plugged in.

gen 5 has lost volume control of headphones and also radio does not recognize headphones are plugged in. Any Ideas on a fix?

The earphones must be pushed very hard into the iPod. So hard, that the white part of the plug must touch the iPod in order for the external speakers to turn off. You will hear a click.
If you do a forum search, you will find this same solution. If it does not work, you will need to take your iPod to an apple store or call the Apple iPod tech support if still under warranty or you have Apple Care.

HT1349 Why does iPhone ask for apple password after rebooting?

Why does iPhone ask for apple password after rebooting? It just started to do that recently. I've had iPhone5 for several months now and it just started to do that.
Before I could reboot without having to type apple ID password to start using my phone.

Could be part of Apple's new security procedures that were implemented this past week.

why does ipad has the same ios like the Iphone4s ,it should be different than iphone

Having one iOS that works across several platforms is one of the advantages of the iOS system. This allows developers to produce one software product instead of several and reduces development time and costs. This is a fundamental difference between iOS and Android operating systems where operating system varieties impede development.

Option to disable iTunes volume control for remote speakers?

I have noticed that with iTunes 10, the option to disable the volume control for remote speakers seems to have disappeared from Preferences>Devices. If you click the "?" button, the help window gives an explanation of what its for but the option to check/uncheck it clearly isn't there. Since iTunes 10, streaming my music from my iMac to my Denon receiver via Airtunes/Airplay with an Airport Express has been disappointing. The volume is far too low. With version 9 and every version prior, the volume control option was always there in preferences and I always had it disabled; music came through loud and clear but since this option appears to no longer exist, the volume through the Denon receiver fails to impress, even with the iTunes volume slider at max.
Anyone else noticed steaming volume too low? If so, agree that it's a bug?
Message was edited by: Brian I.

I wholeheartedly agree with "I also used to disable the volume control to reduce the amount that my computer interferes with the sound before it gets to the external DAC." There is no reason why Apple shouldn't restore this important setting option as the volume control does negatively affect sound quality in a high-end set-up and we'd rather not just take their word for it that the volume control's maximum setting is the same as disabling it. Why does the volume slider change the output level even when using the Airport Express' digital output? It shouldn't, and it seems the sound is now being force sent through a stupid digital volume control for no good reason. If for no other reason the "disable" option should be restored to avoid inadvertent volume changes via the Remote app for iPod Touch and iPhone. Strangely as compared to several other posts here, my perceived volume level now seems louder than before, not softer as others are reporting. People that are serious about sound quality do not want iTunes or AirPlay (formerly AirTunes) to manipulate the volume level or any other aspect of the sound at all ever, as it can't help but only hurt. I also thought the "disable" setting was available in the Airport Utility previously, but it's vanished from there too.

Volume control for video playback through Apple TV2

I am trying to configure the volume settings used on airplay through apple TV2 and a macbook pro and Iphone4 all with most recent updates.
I am using the apple remote app on my iphone to control the apple tv.
Whats working:
Using the pandora app on my iphone through aiplay to the apple tv, I can control the volume using the plus and minus buttons on the side of the iphone for volume control. Very cool and easy.
Using the apple remote app on my iphone I can control the itunes volume of different speakers by clicking on the airplay icon and using a slider. Not as cool as using the hard +/- buttons but still works.
Whats not working:
Controling volume on appleTV2 through the iphone remote app for video playbacks like netflix, and youtube.
Why I want this: RIght now I can control most of the multimedia right from my iphone including cranking the music up:) But when I switch over to video(Netlfix, Youtube) I have to get out another remote (stereo reciever) to control the volume. It seems we are so close to being able to control everything off the iphone, the only thing missing is volume control for video playback.
Is there a setting that can be changed or a solution I havent found?
Thanks

Same problem with TV3. HDMI volume output is not adjustable, neither with the original Apple remote nor with any universal. Why ? Every simple settop-box is able to be volume adjusted. And a Mac Mini too ?!!!
I use a flatscreen TV. it has 3 HDMI inputs and one optical out for the audio going to an amp standing behind it. The sound of the TV is switched to go to the optical out.
HDMI 1 is connected to the satellite settop box with its own remote control ( channel +/-, volume +/- etc. ) it work s fine.
HDMI 2 is connected to the MacMini HDMI out with its own remote control ( channel/music +/-, volume +/- ) it works fine too.
HDMI 3 was connected to Apple TV3 with its own remote control ( channel/music +/- but no volume ). I sent the TV3 back to Apple.
What's going wrong in the mind of Apple ? Why is the HDMI volume output of the MacMini adjustable with the Apple remote, and the TV3 not ?
I want not to discuss, wether a 4th remote control is useful or not. I don't want it. I want to adjust the volume with the originl remote control of the specific unit I use, because I need it anyway. It worked since years, but not with Apple TV3.
How can we help Apple to open the volume +/- function on their own remote control ?

I need to know the multitude of reason why my iPhone 5s would prompt me for my Apple ID password. Please help.

I need to know the multitude of reason why my iPhone 5s would prompt me for my Apple ID password.
All I did was place my phone on the charger, I then walked away for 10-15mins and when I came back it was asking me to enter my Apple ID password.
I never gave my password out to anyone ever and hardly anyone knows my email address.
I haven't recently downloaded anything either and I only have one apple device which is my iPhone 5s.
I just want to know really if it could have been because someone was trying to log into my Apple ID?
Please help with multiple reasons why this could have happened. I just want to know the options. Thank you

My iPhone 5s did the same thing yesterday. I have iCloud backup turned on in Settings > iCloud > Storage & Backup and that means it will automatically do a backup when the phone is plugged in, locked and connected to wi-fi. I had it charging and when I returned it was asking for the password and the prompt did identify that it was requesting it for the iCloud backup (something you may not have noticed if you didn't look closely).
It has never done that before and 2 iPads in my household have not yet done it. All are on iOS 7.1
I have found a report of the same issue by a user of the 7.1 beta and in that case it was happening every day. In my case I entered the password then went to the same area in Settings as above and used the "Backup Now" button to do a backup. I will see tonight when I charge again whether this is going to be an every day problem.

I have changed my Iphone once last year. My iphone has being playing up for the best part of 6 months. It Keeps deleting all my music of the phone. it freezes and will not allow me to turn it on or off. if i am in the middle of an app it will randomly shut it down and turn the phone off totally (even if it is charged.) It will not charge properly, it has to be in a exact position to charge and even then go's off and on. I thought this my be my charger but the charger works fine on another phone. it will not allow texts to come through properly and sometimes will not not let me ring people it just freezes and i have to turn it off and on a couple of times in order for it to work. it will not let me update apps and the silent button is not silent it still go's of on ringer.The keyboard will freeze up not allowing me to type anything. It wants me to pay £126.44 for it to be repaire when i have nothing to do with why its not working!

That is correct.
That is the price of a replacement iphone once your iphone is outside of the warranty period

Lenovo Miix 2 8" - Separating volume controls for headphones and speakers

The sound options for the Miix 2 out the box combine the volume control for internal speakers and for headphone jack, i.e. there is only one volume control for both the speakers and the headphones on the mixer settings at the the volume icon at the lower right hand of the desktop. So when headphones are plugged in, there is still only a "speakers" control shown.
I work in an office and would like to have the speakers muted if the headphones are pulled out.
Similar issues resolved on other devices directed to install an alternate sound driver (that offered separate controls) or pointed to some other settings in the sound driver properties menus where this could be manually done, but I'm having trouble applying any of them to this device.

Worked beautifully! Thank you very much!!

Tried it reverting to an older version of Skype. Didn't work.
But! I believe I may have found the solution.
Here are the steps I took to solve the issue:
1. Right click on the audio volume control icon -> Playback devices. The Sound window and Playback tab should be open.
2. Set Speakers/HP as both the Default Device and the Default Communications Device.
3. Go to Skype>Tools>Audio Settings. Set Speakers settings to: Speakers/HP (IDT High Audio Definition CODEC).
Hopefully this will work for anyone else who has the same or a similar problem.

Mapping Alsa Volume Control for USB SoundCard (C-Media 650)

Hello everyone who is interested in helping me solve my volume control problem!
Lets see, I have sound playback working, currently I am listening to some Foo Fighters mp3s in XMMS using the Alsa plugin, so I can't complain too much.
However, volume control doesn't work. If I set the alsa plugin to use software volume control, then I have volume control but its not ideal and it doesn't help me when I'm not using xmms. When I run alsamixer or open the gnome volume control, I have multiple volume controls for the "Speaker" device. The 1st pair of volume controls do nothing, I can mute them and my music keeps playing... no idea what they're controlling. The 2nd pair ("Speaker 1") DOES control the sound volume. I just need to find a way to remap it or something so I can configure my applications/tray icon/etc to use it. (And preferabbly not the other 6 channels)
In the Gnome sound control, the devices are:
"Speaker" - stereo control that doesn't do anything
and "Speaker 1" - a 7.1 channel (8 sliders) with the first two controlling front left and right sound for my stereo speakers.
I've tried setting xmms to use "speaker 1", but the option is not in the drop-box, tried typing it manually but that didnt work.
I set my tray icon to control "speaker 1" but the sliders don't seem to lock properly and the volume just jumps around, unlocking the channels and not staying balanced or scaling with the slider.
The only way to get the volume to change as expected is to open the gnome volume manager, make sure the channels of "Speaker 1" are UNLOCKED and slide the first 2 sliders to the desired volume.
So I was thinking if I could just remap the first two channels of "speaker 1" to something else using an alias or link or editing asound.state (which just confused me) for example, then I could use my alias to control the sound in my applications. Thanks for any help with this!

AMD Athlon 5400 X2

Thanks again!

Some other observations that may be helpful (and, hopefully, get closer to the heart of the problem)...
(1) Whenever VLC is playing audio (as mentioned in previous post, it is only application that works in desired manner), it will show up in Kmix's "Playback Streams" tab. Whenever Wine and Firefox are playing, they do NOT show up in the "Playback Streams" tab.
(2) Kmix will not allow more than one open application to grab the UA-5 sound (e.g. If I open Firefox and play audio, stop playing audio (while leaving Firefox open), then open VLC and try to play audio, VLC will not play audio (unless Firefox is closed)). This is likely a related problem to the problem outlined in the previous post, but it might not be. If it isn't, I'll take advice on how to let KMIX grab multiple audio sources simultaneously on the same sound card.
Thanks for reading!

No volume control for audio tag in Firefox 5

So this is the problem - after I installed Firefox 5, '''volume control''' for '''audio''' tag stopped showing when I move mouse pointer over the mute control. I have all other controls visible - pause/play and mute, but not the volume control.
This occurs only when I use audio tag. If I open pure .ogg or .oga file in FF5, everything is fine, but that's not usable for me since I need to have audio embedded in my web page.
Video tag is working well.
Is there anything I can do to fix this (without having to code volume control in JavaScript)?

K? No it's not perfectly normal. The software volume control should be done by the Window/Creative sound drivers BEFORE it is sent to the DDL/DTS encoder driver.
Today I found that I do now have limited volume control. However the Master/Device/Speakers volume still does not work, nor does the mute. However the individual applications in the win7 volume mixer work fine to control volume, but having to adjust these gets tidious.
I have no idea if this just suddlenly started working, I just missed it before, or if the webcam with its audio mic driver I just installed did something to it. But at least I do have some way to control volume now within windows. Now if only I can get the master slider to work. Anyone have any ideas? I found one other post on here where someone else was complaining about this very same problem with DDL.

No Volume Control For DDL & DTS Connect with XtremeMusic under Win7

? I have an X-Fi XtremeMusic PCI card with Windows 7 (32-bit).
I'm using the latest SB X-Fi XtremeMusic drivers for Win7 including hotfix.
I've installed "Dolby Digital Li've & DTS Connect" and it works fine under Windows 7 32-bit, except for one thing. I totally lose software control of volume in Windows when in digital DTS/DD mode. No matter what I set volume level at, it is always sounds?the same (probably max). The only way to control it is manually at my receiver box. If I don't use DTS or Digital Dolby, I can control volume just fine (even in the classic digital PCM mode). My default playback device?under "Manage Audio Devices"?is the?SB X-Fi speakers. However I've tried every combination possible in the audio control panels and nothing will get that volume to work right. So this appears to be a bug in either the digital addon pack or the drivers for Win7. Can anyone else confirm this or possibly have a fix?

K This shouldn't be the case. There's no reason why it can't handle volume control before encoding it into the DD/DTS?signal. PCM digital?works fine with volume. So the problem is somewhere with the addon pack. I have another computer which outputs Dobly Digital and volume is no problem on it. Of course it doesn't use a SoundBlaster.
