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.

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)

My sound is pretty loud. To pump up the volume u have to hold the button down. Mine is so loud that my so in his room is begging me to turn it down. I don't understand what happened with yours. I have no problems at all with mine. And guess what!! My phone volume is turned to half way and my speaker is still loud. I never turn my up all the way up. The speaker just takes off with its loudness. Love it�

Check your settings to see what your "increased" volume is set to (you'll have to read the manual to find out where to set it). If you already have the volume set to be loud for lower speeds but your "increased" volume is set to a lower level (mine came set at "1", which is the lowest level) it will change to that lower level at a higher speed. Hope this helps.

Do re- read the manual...There is a built in amplifier (the volume control is on either the left or right ear cup...i.e. the one that rotates) in that headphone which has a switch to turn on but first, you have to charge the battery with a supplied USB cable. Once this is done the volume will increase.Low volume usually suggest a high impedance which means you need more power from mobile phone, computer or laptop to achieve desired listening levels but, because this headphone has a built in amplifier and volume control, this should not be a problem (I had none at all with my iPhone).Do make sure the connector from headphone is secure into your phone snugly.

There are two ways to control volume. The blue tooth volume of device or there is a switch on the side of the Plantronics that cycles thru low to high in increments

If you have steering wheel controls you just set the iPod volume at a little above midpoint or so and adjust volume with the steering wheel controls as well as the songs changing up or down. Hope this helps.

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;

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.

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.

My secure nano doesn't make any noise aside from when it is blowing steam and its a very light noise. It's possible you may have received a defective one,

The volume control on the speaker goes-up only so high. I put that volume control at the lowest level then adjust overall volume using the device. Then, if I need additional volume, I can increase it some using the speaker volume control.

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

Turn the volume all the way down in every device in the chain. I know it's a tube thing to pop every time you turn it on and in some cases turning off too.

Mine does not work without being pulled into the device as well. Also, the volume is so low I don't even use it, and trust me I don't like things really loud. I just need enough volume to play in a classroom. I feel a bit like I got stuck on this one. However, it is not worth the cost of returning it. Sorry I can't be of more help. Julie N.

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.

Mine is quiet. You should not have noise. Turn volume down. See instructions.
