Q: How do I get the sounds back

Hello Dolly Reitz

What do you mean about sounds?

Music?

Keyboard sounds?

Did you check the side switch?

Check the following please:

Settings:

Do not disturb > OFF

Sounds : Check if the sounds are on

If possible try use headphone to see if theres a problem with ipad speakers
