New problem - volume Sometimes when I turn on my Nano, the volume is very loud. Even when I turn it down to the lowest setting, it's blasting in my ear. I can literally set the headphones down on my lap and hear the music like a boom box. Other times the volume control is normal - I can lower the volume all the way down until I hear nothing.What gives? Is there some setting that I may be changing on accident? This is really annoying.

I have retuned 3 nano's for this problem. The nano sometimes doesn't recognize that the headphones are plugged in. The volume contol then changes the volume of the speaker but the headphones get full volume. If you cover the headphones you will be able to hear the nano speaker change volume with click wheel control. I called Apple and they say this is a hardware problem but said there weren't many people reporting the problem and I was just having bad luck. This happened less when I used different headphones, so the problem may be with the earbuds that come with the nano.

If that volume control is responding well, as you described, most likely there is another volume control that is muted or turned down on your computer. Try clicking on the speaker icon in the bottom right corner of your screen and try adjusting it. Hope that helps.Jim

There is no volume adjuster included within the cord of the headphones, so the headphones will go as loud or as soft as the device settings permit. I can say that the loudest setting is not as loud as one would think. I believe it was meant to be that way.

there are actually two ways to adjust the volume. 1) by using the plus/minus buttons on the speaker. 2) adjusting the volume coming into the speaker from your device I.e. computer

I´ve been using my Monster iSport with iPod Nano and have not experienced any problem whatsoever. I can pause/turn up/turn down normally.

I found this same issue and resolved it. If you switch between bypass mode (to listen to music without noise cancellation) then to Normal mode, the headphones put the volume all teh way down so that you can't hear your music. You simply have to turn the volume up in Normal mode to listen to music. These headphones work much better than my old folding PXC-250 Sennheiser headphones.

I think you might have to press and hold onto the + volume button until you notice a change in volume. Simply pressing it continuously does not seem to work well, but keeping constant pressure on it until you reach the desired volume seems to do the trick.

Dear Lenora----it seems to work just fine for me---. I purchased two of these items and both work just fine. There is an amplifier that must be switched on (uses 1 AAA battery) in order for the volume to really work best---if the amplifier isn't on or the battery is dead there (essentially) is no volume. As long as the battery is good and you have the amplifier turned on (that is by the way how the volume is adjusted) all is well and for just a little speaker it can be quite loud --- but that is a function of how close it is to your ear. For me and my purpose I have no complaints and it's my opinion that you'll be just fine. Dear Lenora----it seems to work just fine for me---. I purchased two of these items and both work just fine.

Yeah, you just click (the up/down buttons) repeatedly and it seems to change the volume. My iPod doesn't register the change (I checked the screen) but the volume did change. I use them for running so it was necessary that I don't have to take he device out of the sleeve on my arm.

Your wrong about this my friend! I have used a Sony Walkman of sort for 6 years. It does have a volume control Just above the center control button is an arrow pointing up, while the music is playing press that arrow and the volume will go up. If you want to turn it down, press the arrow at the bottom of the main button. This unit is the best there is on the market. I have had no problems what so ever with the units that I have purchased from Amazon.

Hi - Have you consulted the manual? If it did not come with a manual, you can always find one online. I have not heard of this problem before. When you try to play it out of the speakers, make sure you have the headphones removed from the jack. Also look for a master volume control.

well what it does is this. regular headphones and me I like volume only go so high even if both pc speakers are up to 100. you have the speaker on the bottom left of the pc screen and the other 1 that goes to 100. now what these speakers do is, you can turn them up even louder than as loud as the pc goes. you can however turn them down lower than the pc goes. I like them your not limited to how low or how high the pc volume is. hope this helped.

Normally the volume is regulated through the device that is hooked up to the speaker as there is no volume control button on the speaker. I would suggest to check the volume from the device.

I get the same sound volumn from both my laptob and Kindle Fire (tablet). Don't think it is a defect- (although I guess anything can be defective) I do have the Kindle Fire sound adjusted to its loudest also and then the bot just makes that even louder and better. Have you adjusted the tablet volumn to be at its loudest on the cell and tablet? Then use the bot volumn to go softer or louder. Happy holidays and hope this helps. (P.S. I don't use it for my cell- so cannot comment on that other than my suggestion)

Not sure if you had Autovolume setting turned on but that makes a BIG difference on the volume on mine. If it's off I can barely hear anything but the levels go way up when turned on.

Hi ERubio, Here are the directions for changing the volume:While music is playing:To turn the volume UP:1. Turn the volume on your phone (or other Bluetooth device) all the way up. 2. Press and HOLD the right-track/skip button on the speaker until the volume is as loud as you want it. The volume will get VERY loud if you hold the control down long enough. To turn the volume DOWN:Press and HOLD the left-track/skip button on the speaker until the volume is as low as you want it.
