Switch From "mute" To "lock Rotate" But It Doesn't Go Back

Jun 22, 2012

side switch not working; tried to switch from "mute" to "lock rotate" but it doesn't go back from the usual setting - if its on "lock rotate" then u need to unmute it from the home button so that game sounds will work but it doesn't rotate even if side switch was already turned on. Also, "sound" logo doesnt show everytime the side switch is turn on or off unlike before. I just noticed it today when the games alert & sound is not working i thought that the problem was on its speaker.

what to do with the side switch, i bought this last Feb 2012

Info:
iPad 2, iOS 5.1.1

Modification In Latest Patch For Rotate Lock Switch To Mute Switch

Nov 24, 2010

I have not idea why apple changed the switch function. It is very annoying if you are moving around with the unit and watching as the screen flops around. I think 99% of the users do not place an iPad in a fixed position when operating it, we tend in lay it down or sit and relax while using the unit. anow we have to ensure that we keep the unit in a fixed position when using it or face the flip flopping effect. For the love of god put the option to use the lock of the sceen over the silly mute button. I think we can hit the up/down keys to adjust the volume like big kids.

4.2.1 Mute Switch Doesn't Mute

Nov 27, 2010

Subject pretty much covers it. After upgrade to 4.2.1, the hardware switch that used to lock the screen is now broken.Switching to the up position shows a speaker and the current volume.Switching to the down position shows a speaker with a slash through it.Neither position affects the volume of what's currently playing.

Mute Switch Still Doesn't Work

Mar 10, 2011

They went through all the trouble of letting us pick between a mute switch and orientation lock, but the mute option still doesn't work. It shows the mute icon but it doesn't have any effect on the sound.

It's not a big deal to me because I use the orientation lock, but it's kinda funny that they still haven't figured out how to fix this problem.

Give Me Back My Lock Rotation Switch Apple

Nov 23, 2010

There were times I was really hoping for iOS 4.2 to come to my iPad. Within an hour I wish my lock rotation switch from 3.2.2 was back. Instead of leaving the very useful switch as is, Apple decided to give it a very useless task; partly muting iPad sounds.So far I have hardly ever muted my iPad and in the instances I did, the keep the "volume button pressed for a few sec's and volume will drop to zero" worked perfectly. What I do use very often is lock rotation.

Mute Button Doesn't Mute All

Nov 25, 2010

If I flip the mute button down, it shows that my sound is now muted. I start up Dominion HD (after making sure it was not in the background) and I hear the music at startup. I have to go back to the rocker switch to actually mute audio. Any ideas on how to make the mute button mute the audio?

Side Switch: Allow For "Lock Rotation" To Be Unchecked AND "Mute" To Be Unchecked?

Jun 26, 2012

I have an iPad2 which I purchased in Dec, 2011. Up until recently my default settings were allowing for the screen to rotate AND the sound of the click to be heard when I was typing. Something changed suddenly and the sound of the click when using the keyboard went away. I started looking into it and I uncovered the Side Swicth feature. But it looks like this feature only allows you to have one or the other but NOT both. In other words, it only allows to have the Mute on and the Lock Rotation off or the other way around! But not BOTH on or off at the same time! Bizarre! I am sure this must be a bug or there must be a way around it that I cannot figure out. And how did it change? New "upgrade"?

Mute Switch Does Not Work?

Apr 25, 2011

Since the upgrade to 4.3 mute switch stopped working. Just upgraded to 4.3.2 and it still does not work. I use radio apps "iDeRadio" "The Radio" "Antyradio" to listent to internet stations. When I move the side switch I can see the icon of the crossed speaker but the sound still goes out. Is it only problem with my unit or a general problem? It annoys me very much as I have to keep pressing the volume down button to get quickly mute my iPad.
