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.

volume control is excellent. I usually turn my ipod volume up and make all my adjustments via the head phone volume control dial. I have never had a problem with unexpected volume changes even when exercising and jostling head phone line all over the place. And volume gets quite loud and quite soft with no alteration in sound quality or crispness as far as I m concerned.

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.

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!

Don't know about the Nano, doesn't change track with iPod 3rd generation, or with iPhone 3GS, or iPad, starts and stops music, adds bass, and has volume control, have no idea how it would change tracks. Sorry if this doesn't help.

I think the volume is loud. I usually turn the volume down because it's so loud. I use the speaker all the time and have no problems hearing.

I plugged mine in and the sound works. I would say that yours has a defect. There is a button to push to adjust the volume of the sound. It is explained in the manual. You can check that incase it is just turned down. I doubt that this is the problem, as it is probably set at a default volume. Return for an exchange. I really like mine.

You might have to adjust the volume. Otherwise I have had no problems with it.

My volume buttons don't work either, I have a Samsung galaxy s3 smartphone. I believe I read somewhere it only works with Apple products. Maybe your version of the nano isn't compatible

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.

I had the same issue. Seems like if you hit that button in the first 10 seconds of a song, it will skip forward to the next song and if it is after that, it will adjust volume. Not sure if that is completely correct, but I have inadvertently forwarded to the next song as well.

I don't have an issue with the bass setting on mine. Have you checked the EQ on your iPod? Make sure it's not on Super Bass. Or, you can make sure you lighten up the bass setting.

My experience is very different. Maybe my pair is defective but I could barely hear any music over the mower. I was hoping to listen to audio pod casts while mowing but after turning on the mower, I quickly realized that was completely out of the question. The headphones seem to limit outside noise pretty well and turned up I could hear every blade of grass as I walked across the lawn. However, it didn't let me increase the volume of my music independent of the outside mower noise. Volume increases from my Galaxy Not3 3 was ignored. One volume adjustment wheel on the headphones and it reproduced all the outside noise and my music at the same volume. i don't understand how the others had a good result.

As long as you have it positioned so that you can reach the volume button on the right side of the Nano. You have to be careful though. If you hit the volume button in the middle, it actually pauses the music.

Yes I have had the same problem. I think that it has to do with the AUX music device it's hooked up to, phone, iPod etc.... I haven't had it do that when I've used the built in radio. I believe if you go into the volume control of the device your using there should be a setting for that. Hope that helps&#128522;

Da doooo da doooo. Lol. It's not too annoying really, you can also adjust the volume to high or low. I keep it on low. Also don't let it get too wet, I'm on my second one. Happy overall though.

Does anyone have problems with the volume? Mine doesn't seem to be loud enough to hear in the classroom. I push the volume button all the way up, but it's really not very loud. Any suggestions? I'm using an iPod (volume all the way up) to play music through it.
