Why isn't my volume working on my iphone 4s

My iphone volume is not working, no sound when playing music or ring or text message sound. If i try to put the volume on the side, the box appears but the bar is not there. I went to test it in the test setting, it works in there, so its not my volume.

iPhone 4S, iOS 7.0.4

Hey Chelsreb,



Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with your iPhone 4s. The following resource may provide a solution:

1. Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.


2. Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.


3. If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.


4. Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.


5. If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.


6. If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:

- Try turning off Bluetooth.

- If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.


7. Restart the iPhone.


8. If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.


9. If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, please contact Apple Support.


If the issue persists, please follow the last step by contacting Apple Support for support and service options.



Thanks,


Matt M.
