My iPad, it's an iPad 3, 64gb and it just randomly stops sound, like it'll just go mute. Whether it's sound from like an app or youtube or videos or music or whatever it just all goes mute. No sound at all, I can't fix it. iOS7

I can't fix it when there is no volume, if don't know why but it just stops the volume, I try to adjust the volume using the volume buttons. But they don't work like they don't show up and there is still no sound, I scroll up from the bottom of the screen to adjust the volume that way, there is no volume thing. I try on music app, other apps, video, safari, podcasts, lock screen. Everything. Please help, I haven't done anything like I haven't dropped it or got water on it or dirt or knocked it or anything it just randomly started happening. It's iOS7.0.6 although it started happening just a few days ago when I was on iOS 7.0.4 I tried everything it still did not fix the volume, it only works when it wants to. So I tried restoring and updating, and it still didn't work. I've tried rebooting, restarting

iOS 7.0.6

Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Check your settings. The iPads have a small switch on the right edge. It can be used as a rotation lock to keep the screen from automatically reorienting itself as you move around, but you need to have the tablet’s settings configured properly. That same switch, right above the volume buttons, can also be set to function instead as a mute button to silence certain types of audio.

If the switch is set to work as a mute button, you can change its purpose to “screen-rotation lock” by tapping the Settings icon on the home screen. On the Settings screen, tap General on the left side, and on the right side of the screen flick down to “Use Side Switch to.” Tap to select Lock Rotation or Mute to set the button’s function. Even if you set the side switch for your preferred use, you can still mute the Mini or lock the screen. Just double-click the Home button, and when the panel of apps appears along the bottom edge of the screen, flick the row from left to right with your finger. Tap the icon on the far left side of the row to either lock the iPad’s screen or mute the iPad’s alerts, notifications and sound effects. Music, podcasts and video are not muted unless you turn the volume all the way down.
