Why does the "mute" button not "mute" the new iPad?

Hi,
the problem drives us crazy.
We bought the new iPad on launch Day and every other App (like Hotel Dash) does play Sounds even though the iPad is muted. Really anoying are "between Level" Ads or "pause Ads" (like in Wedding Dash, Lost Luxuries) which started playing while my wife was in the Subway.
The mute Button should turn the iPad to mute without exceptions. How can we fix it? Or do we have to return the new iPad?
Regards
Tim

Thanks for your Reply. The Problem is, we are not listing to Music or watching an Movie - we are using an App, which plays Advertisement.
Game Sounds do not play at all, but the Advertisement is playing at full Volume. This should not happen.
Ok it is "not a bug it's a feature" or just abuse by App Developers, which i have no controll over? I have to use the volume rocker all the time? Why put a "mute" button on an iPad?
As you were told, the mute button mutes system sounds. Other sounds are muted via the rocker. That's the way it is.

Look, you can build an HD DVD with an SD movie, just as you can build an SD DVD with an HD movie. This is not a bug, it is most likely user error. Apple will not be addressing it.
Just start over, and ensure you are building an SD DVD by bringing up the inspector for the disc (click on the background in the Graphical tab).
Make sure SD DVD is selected:
(If you do the same thing on your ill fated project, you'll see that HD DVD is selected)
Build your DVD and you'll be fine.

P.S. You will need to google HD DVD and Blu-Ray if you want to understand the difference between the formats. The reason that DVDSP included HD DVD was that its format was similar to SD DVD's. Blu-Ray is something else entirely.

Why does my iPhone 4 not have the panorama feature with the new iOS 6 ?

Why does my iPhone 4 not have the panorama feature with the new iOS 6 ? Can someone please explain this to me. I was already excited about it.

That was made available in iOS 5. To update, you may need to connect to iTunes

Why does my edit button not show in Address Book?

I have installed Lion on my laptop; however, I am not able to edit any Address Book entries. After doing some research, I have learned that I am missing the "Edit Button" that is supposed to appear on a contact that will enable editing. My Edit button does not appear - I have only "Add Contact" and "Share" buttons. Why does my edit button not appear?
I have not noticed any other issues with Lion.
Thanks!

Try this:
Select "Go" from the finder whilst holding down the Alt key and "Library will drop down in the list.
Library/preferences/ and delete this : com.apple.AddressBook.plist
re-start your comp and it should work.
This . plist will re-create itself when re resart all nice and clean and fresh.
Should work, it does for most things.
Good Luck

Why does my card reader not work on my iPad since upgrade?

I use my iPad mini to download photos from my camera when I'm on the road. In the summer I bought the "3 in 1 Card Reader Adapter Cable Camera Connection Kit, 3 Port Card Reader for iPad 4 and iPad Mini by Eurekka" and it worked wonderfully. I was able to download photos (jpg and RAW) directly to the iPad and off the camera, and once home it was a flawless upload to my iMac.
However, once I upgraded to iOS 7 last week I get a message saying the device is not supported. What gives? Will this be fixed or will Apple products only accept Apple accessories from now on?

No but I was just trying to find a way in to your help desk. I didn't find
your web page very helpful in this regard.

Why does my lightening wire not fit the ipod nano 7th gen

Could someone tell me why does my lightening wire now not fit the ipod nano (7th gen)? I push it in but it seems to spring out and not fully connect. I only bought it 1 year ago and it is been great, but now I think it needs to go in the bin

I agree, sounds like there's something in the port on the Nano. Try cleaning it out with a can of compressed air, or a gently with a wooden toothpick.

How do I get pop-up windows to show the navigation buttons (not just the address box)?

When I click on a link that opens a new firefox window, the new window shows a navigation toolbar that does not include the back, forward, stop, and home buttons (it only shows the internet address box). However, the original firefox window that I navigated away from shows all of the navigation buttons AND the address bar. How do I get these new firefox windows to show the navigation buttons in addition to the address box that automatically appears?

Why does my calendar info not go from my iPad to my MAC mini

When I add an event to my calendar on my Mac it will go to all of my other devices. If I add an event to my Ipad it does not go to my Mac. Should it not flow both ways?

First check that all your settings are correct, that calendar syncing is checked on all devices (system preferences > iCloud on a mac and settings > iCloud on a iPhone, iPad or iPod).
Make sure the calendars you are using are in your 'iCloud' account and not an 'On My Mac', 'On My Phone' or other non iCloud account (you can do this by clicking/tapping the calendar button in the top left corner of the application ), non iCloud calendars will not sync.
If you are sure that everything is set up correctly and your calendars are in the iCloud account, you might try unchecking calendar syncing in the iCloud settings, restarting your device and then re-enabling calendar syncing settings.

Why does "Insert MathType Equation" not work in new Pages for Mac?

Command opens MathType (6.7e). After typing an equation, pressing Command-W closes the MathType window and returns to Pages. (Instructions given here: http://help.apple.com/pages/mac/5.0/#/tan0e6bf8310 indicate that I should have to answer "Yes" to some question at this point, but no question appears. The return to Pages is automatic.) But no equation appears in the placeholder in the Pages 5.0 document (as it does in Pages 4.3). Subsequently double-clicking the placeholder in the Pages 5.0 document opens a new (blank) MathType window. Where is my equation?

Right -- you shouldn't have to start MathType separately. If it's running, fine, but if it's not, it will start when you first use the Insert MathType Equation command.
All the posts and replies have been helpful, but I'm still getting mixed results. The first document I opened in Pages 5.0 was one that I created in Pages 4.3, and it had several MathType equations in it. I could not edit the old equations, but I could insert new ones and edit them once they were inserted. I later rebooted and opened the same document (which was now saved in Pages 5.0 format), and I got a message saying some of the images had been deleted. All of the original equations had been replaced with empty placeholders (gray boxes with a large X), but the new ones were still there.
I haven't been able to duplicate that behavior with additional "old" documents. I can open Pages 4.3 documents in Pages 5.0, and all the old equations are visible and editable. Someone mentioned re-installing MathType, and I must say that I did that (for a different reason), so I must consider the possibility that this had some bearing on the outcome, but I can't be sure.
It does appear, as has been reported many times, and as Peter alluded to above, that you can't add equations or other objects to text boxes or tables. I believe this was intentional on Apple's part, but that doesn't mean it was a good idea.
That said, and this is a Pages thread so I won't say much about it, I haven't seen any problems at all with Keynote 6.0 and Numbers 3.0, when it comes to how they deal with MathType.

Why does my home button not work all the time

Why does my time capsule not recognize the password when trying to connect Apple TV, iPhone 4s or Canon printer

I have tried to set up my wireless as before but the Time Capsule only recognizes my Macbook. I have used the correct password but nothing is happening except an error message. This should have been simple so what is the glitch.

Not sure.. but I strongly recommend you start over.
Use all names that comply with new Apple standard protocol .. ie SMB.. which means the names recommended in the airport utility are WRONG.. do not use them.
That is especially important for the printer.
SHORT.. names should be 10characters or less.. if you can manage it.. 20 at most.
NO SPACES..
PURE ALPHANUMERIC... no apostrophe, no other illegal characters.
So call the TC .. TCgenx (x I replace with the actual generation of the product).
Wireless name.. TCwifi
Use only wireless passwords that also comply.. only a bit longer is ok.. 10-20 characters is usually plenty.. no spaces.. pure alphanumeric.
No luck.. do some more.
Set wireless names for the two bands to different values.. eg.. TC24ghz and TC5ghz
Leave off the security..
Test 2.4ghz band at channels 11, 6, 1
Once it works put the security back on.
