It froze on you. You have to press both center and up arrow buttons together and hold for about 10-12 seconds. Once done, it will reset and work fine afterward. Hope this helps you, and that you still have the ipod.

Same problem with ours, so suspect there is a defect. My wife uses this speaker with an iPod, which does have a functional volume control. Probably not much help, sorry.

I asked my daughter and she said no. She's using an iPod 4th Gen. She did say if she presses the physical volume buttons it takes a couple of tries to get the iPod to change the volume, but it's never not responded. Hope this helps a bit.

I use mine with an Ipod, not an Iphone, so I don't know if my results will be the same as yours. The volume control on my headphones will only allow volume to go as high as inputted on the Ipod and won't go higher unless I raise the volume physically on the Ipod. Easy fix, just have the volume turned up on your phone before you start and you can always adjust down with the headphones. This has never been a problem for me. I only need the volume to be at approximately 1/4 level on my Ipod to get enough out of the headphones, and even with that I have to adjust the volume down on the earphones, even while using them in noisy areas. Hope this helps.

I have never heard of this problem. Have you accidentally changed the volume settings for an individual source? If you have verified it's not a setting issue, I'd suggest contacting Alpine. Their tech support is very good.

I am on my second one now, and it is still that way! I'm going to try to return it AGAIN and maybe get a different ipod. I wish I knew what else to do!

Hi, Kyle. I just tried these with my iPhone. While playing music, I turned the volume down the whole way (on the side of the phone). Then, I held the middle button down on the headphones - and I could hear Siri (and turned the volume up the whole way while Siri was talking). Went back to music and hit play. It was still silent. So, there are two separate volume adjustments on the iPhone. May just want to hit play on the music and then use volume adjustments in the side of the phone. Hope that's all it is for you! Good luck!

I would make sure the media volume on your Android device is turned all the way up, since the volume coming out of your stereo is dependent on how loud the input is. I did not have a problem with low volume on mine. The problem I had with the AUX input is I would get a lot of fuzz and crackling when there was a lull in volume (like in between songs, or while listening to audiobooks, etc.)

I recently bought the 8GB Nano from Amazon and returned it within a week due to the problems you describe. I thought I was the only one. 8GB Nano would freeze up at least once a day, and would sometimes turn on unexpectedly (when it was turned off and I would just pick it up) with a solid white screen that would not turn off and would not respond to button presses - I would have to reset it. I was so disappointed with my ipod experience that I requested a refund (rather than a replacment) so I can buy a competitor's product. I am jaded about Apple/iPod now.

Sounds like a connection problem if it works some times and not others. I only have a iPod CLASSIC and have never had any problems. Maybe a visit to the Apple Store. Sorry not much help. Regards,Barry

I just change the volume on the device that is playing, like my iPhone for example. Hope that helps!

I have the same problem which is one of the big reasons it got a low review from me and probably why it was included for free with the Bluetooth bundle I bought -(especially considering it isn't a Bluetooth device at all!). I wouldn't expect anything else from it - ours sits in a drawer waiting for the day we need to have less volume coming from our iPhone.

Yes, until it died that is the ipod that I used to have and it sounded great. I now have a 5th generation 160 gb which I just use a 30-pin to lightning adapter.

I love my waterproof ipod and use it a lot. So spoiled that I don't want to swim without music. Recently I have been swimming in a salt water pool and the last two times I used it I had problems. It quit playing and then came back in five minutes later. Right away I thought the salt was causing the problem. But honestly not sure what happened so ultimately not sure how to respond to your question.

Try turning the receiver off before you remove the iPod, and leaving it off before you plug it back in. This might resolve the problem.

Yes, but I thought I was just going deaf--I'm older probably, at 68, and enjoy listening to my iPodTouch for audiobooks, and it is frustrating to have the sound only periodically when you are listening to a good story. I am sorry to hear that the problem isn't me, but the product.

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.
