iPhone5 / iOS6 Keyboard Click Volume Issue

I am having the same problem with my Verizon iPhone 5, and new iPad. A normal restart tends to fix it. I think I have narrowed it down to when I get a text message and immediately unlock and goes straight to messaging app. All other sound is perfect, except keyboard clicks. I have a friend that is experiencing the same problem. I believe it to be a software glitch. Hopefully apple knows about it and can resolve it.

I have the same problem. It literally started today. I reset all settings, restarted the phone, etc - no avail. It's very odd.

I have an odd solution to the problem. Let me know if it works. I have the same issue and the only way I could find to solve it is the following:

(1) Double-Click the home button to open the multitasking bar

(2) slide to the music/volume bar to the left of the multitasking bar

(3) turn the volume slider DOWN!

I know it's odd. For my device it seems like the keyboard clicks have been tied to this volume bar, but backwards. I have no idea why, or how, or what would cause this to happen, but after a little experimenting I was able to increase the volume of the keyboard clicks.

Using the main volume buttons on the side of the iphone had no effect on the volume of the keyboard clicks, only the ringer volume.

Hope that helps until Apple is able to fix this weird bug/glitch.

This did the trick for me. Kinda weird how that fixes the issue but it works! Nice find. Hopefully it's addressed soon!!

how about a star? 😝

This seems to be an issue involved with adjusting the sound within quicktime (movie player) or any other media based application. If you are like me, you tend to double tap the the home button and shut off running apps that you are no longer using. However, if you have just lowered the sound within the app before shutting it off, it will affect the sound of your keyboard clicks.

iPhil's fix works. Thanks!

Check your Itunes music volume setting. Go into your Iphone music player and turn your volume up. The keyboard clicks volume is related to your music player volume.

This also did the trick for me. I've never heard the keyboard clicks so loud until I turned that volume all the way down. The midpoint seems to be the volume I prefer.

Do you have any idea what causes this bar to go up or down?

iPhil, Your fix for my just newly purchased iPhone 5 worked. This needs to be fixed, but it's geat when we can discover things that just work regardless. "High Five" and 5 stars.

I have the same problem on a recently purchased ATT IPhone 5 but the aforementioned fixes did not work for me.

I logged in just to be able to give you a star but I haven't used the support forums in a while, all I see are 'liked' I'm on my iPhone, maybe the option isn't there?

But Thankyou :)

Wow iphil's solution really works! But dammit apple! Fix this issue it's annoying!! iPhone 4 never had this issue!!

Tried this and it worked for me the first time but wouldn't work subsequent times to adjust for better level. I was able to get it to work when I had both the maps app and safari open with the maps app giving driving directions. It seems as though there are different volume level settings throughout iOS that don't link together perfectly. I ran into this once before when I adjusted the volume while using the GPS but had low volume in other areas even though volume indicated maximum when using buttons to raise it.
