Did anyone else have the experience where the volume buttons on the case do not align with the actual volume buttons on the iPad air?

Yes. I returned mine last week. My husband has an actual griffin and it is awesome. This has to be a knock off. Horrible quality.

We have had no problems with the volume buttons on the Griffin case on our Ipad Air. We have had it for a year and it works fine.

I had no trouble with the case. I did find that the first time I put the Kindle in the case I had to turn Kindle around so all the buttons and connector were aligned.

This happened to me when I first put it on, too! I fixed it by putting the case on from the bottom first then pushing in the top. Hopefully that helps!

Yes it's unfortunately a known issue. I modified mine by clipping the thin piece of black plastic just above the power button completely away. Removing this piece of plastic does not seem to affect the integrity or function of the case as mine works great now.

I have the same case for my iPad Air, and it fits very tight. I don't remember exactly how it fit when new, it may have been a bit of work to get it to fit. I do remember working hard, with some effort, to stuff the overlap portion behind the back of the iPad to maintain a tight fit across the screen. It has held up well, and doesn't slip in the case.

No. That is why the case is on sale. The iPad Air is new and there are few accessories that work with it. Give them some time to update their accessories to the Air.

Well, you can't feel the buttons click through the case so there's no real feedback, and they're somewhat harder to press then other cases, but I wouldn't call them impossible. After about a week I got used to it. I also find the power button a bit harder to press then the volume buttons, maybe it's just me.

I had the same problem with the volume. The case is too tight for the phone to fit in without it pressing on the buttons when you put it together. I didn't want to take the chance of breaking the buttons so I returned mine.

Try rotating the IPAD 180 degrees so that the home button is on the right. That might work for you.

I have not had any issues. I feel like this case fits a little tighter, so, that may be why.

I actually didn't have a problem fitting my iPad into this case. I remember having to snap it in rather firmly. I did send it back but it was because I didn't like the look of the case fabric/material. I have an iPad 3rd generation - I hope this helps you out some. If it doesn't work just send it on back and maybe a replacement would be better. Also, you can google "fun or functional cases for iPad 3 or 4 (whichever you have)" - you would be amazed at how many cases there are out there. :)

No my particular model, as the iPad Air is much smaller than the 1st generation ipads. It's also smaller (width) then the ipad2.

No, but the buttons' locations are marked by button covers in the rubber sides of the case. I never had any problem using them, which I think is what you may really be asking.

From personal experience it doesn't properly fit the volume buttons on the side.

Technically yes, mine actually won't turn off if it's in the case even if I'm depressing the button (I don't know what the technical cause is behind this) - so I have to slide it out of the case to turn it off. Additionally, the material is not rigid, so it does cover the buttons sometime. I can access the volume button though. I actually recently ended up getting a new case. This one was really cool, but the inconvenience became a little too annoying for me.

Yes, it does. Although, cincd the case rotates, you need to make sure the iPad is aligned in the correct direction, with the volume buttons at the bottom.

Hello. Yes, the case has buttons along the side of the case to allow you to easily adjust the volume as needed. If you look at the image on the listing, along the left side of the case you will see two symmetrical buttons which are the up and down volume buttons.Thank you
