Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
Ok, so my iPhone 4 is not ringing aloud when I receive texts or calls..even having the ring/silent control in the correct position for it to ring, and the ringer setting is turned up all the way. My keypad does not make sound either (not a huge issue). BUT my phone will play the ringtone/text-tone/music from the ipod also.. Any suggestions???
iPhone 4, iOS 5.0.1
look at the side of the device, where you see the silent switch and the volume up and down controls. look at the flip switch- you should not see orange/red color. if you do, flip it to not see color
Worked
problem solved
Thank you 🙂
Katie_Bug_88 Thank you for solving my problem. Not being much of a techie, I had taken my iphone3 to ten of my "high tech" friends most of whom told me to get rid of it and buy a new model and all saying that it was not fixable. If I'd had the cash I may have thrown it away. Being broke I googled instead and found your reply. My phone now rings! I found your simple solution, it worked!, and I have saved myself some major bucks in the process! Thanks for your reply!
Thank you 17beachside71. This solved my issue and my phone now rings. I appreciate you sharing this information. It is sad that Apple does not have this simple solution and is more interested in selling us a new phone. Thanks again!
Thank you Katie_Bug_88 ... I was so busy looking at the settings menu I missed the manual switch.
I created an account just to thank you 17beachside71. How in the world did you figure that out ? 😀
Thanks mate!
A big thank you to everyone for posting suggestions. I did the hard shutdown thing and now it works!
I really appreciate everyone posting help suggestions. For me, it saves an hour's trip to the nearest Apple Store.
You are absolute wicked man! Thanks mate, saved my time and money, Keep the good wor!
Was flicking through Settings and trying all sorts till I read this. Thanks so much!
THANK YOU. After hours and hours......it worked. Didn't know what that little "hard" side button on top of the vol up/down did...but I sure do now (and how convenient I might add). Guess I really should suck it up and read the manual-
Phone vibrates but does not ring
iphone not ringing just vibrating
