Why have I lost stereo sound on my iphone 5 after installing ios7

The question says it all? I'm now getting sound from only one of the speaker grills at the bottom of the phone. what can I do?

That's because one of the "speaker grills" at the bottom of the phone is NOT a speaker. It's a microphone. It's always been a microphone.

  • Why have I lost video sound on my ipad?

    Why have I lost video sound on my ipad?

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.
    If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.

  • Why have I lost PDF printing capability through the File Print menu?  When will it be fixed?

    Why have I lost PDF printing capability through the File>Print menu?  When will it be fixed?

    What app are you using to view PDF files? Preview can be a poor choice for some PDF files - I recommend using Adobe Reader - http://get.adobe.com/reader/ - perhaps it will solve your printing problem.

  • Why have i lost all my contacts on my iphone4s that I just purchased 5 days ago?

    Why have i lost all my contacts on my iphone4s that I just purchased 5 days ago?
    I noticed that the contacts were there a couple of days a go and now the whole contacts directory is gone. This is my first iphone having had a Blackberry Storm prior to this. I just signed up for icloud and I'm wondering if it might have been something that I might have done. I'm not familiar with many of the options on the iphone.
    Thank you

    Have you tried to synce this with iCloud or resotre to factory settings? Try to sync it to your Itunes again and lets hope for a good result.

  • Why have I lost all the books in my iBooks library?

    Why have I lost all the books in my IBooks library since it was updated to iBooks 1.5. My library is now blank & I'm not a happy chappie!
    Can anybody help me please! I'm disabled & it's not easy for me to sync my iPad with my PC so I'm hoping that I won't need to do that.

    You can redownload any purchased books without syncing with your PC. To do this, open iBooks on your iPad, click on the Store button at the upper left of the screen. Once the store loads, you'll see a tab labeled Purchased on the navigation bar at the bottom of the screen. Click there and you'll be able to download any books that you purchased from the iBookstore.

    Why have I lost most of the backlight on my nano? How can I get it back?

    You'll need to send the iPod in for service either to Apple or a third party service center.

    I can't tell you how it happened, but if you want to get them back on your other devices, download the app My Contacts Backup on your 4S and use the app to back up your contacts as a vCard attachment to an email.  Send the email to yourself.  You can open the email on your iPad and tap the attachment to import the contacts to your iPad.  If you want them in iCloud, go to Settings>iCloud on your iPad and turn Contacts to On before importing the contacts.  If your computer is signed into your iCloud account this will also make them appear on your computer.  If not, import the vCard attachment to whatever contact management program you are using on your computer.

    Try assigning Queen as the Album Artist on the compilations in iTunes on your computer.

    It still vibrates but no calling sounds or message sounds. It's not on mute and the speakers are working... I can hear music etc.
    Oh yeah no keypad noises either.

    Same thing has happened to me. I have tried every trick that's been posted here. I just ran out of options. Galaxy phone is starting to look better by the minute.

  • HT4623 After installing iOS7 I have lost my facebook ... How do I get it back?

    After installing iOS7 I have lost my facebook ... How do I get it back?

    Hi there,
    Are you absolutely sure the app is installed? Go into the App Store, search for Facebook and tap 'Free' and 'Install' if they are available.
    If it says 'installed' then make sure you don't have it hidden away in a folder, by dragging down from the center of the home screen and searching for it.
