AirPod connected but no sound? 4 reasons for the silence
You have connected your AirPods to your device, eagerly awaiting the sound of your favorite music or the clear audio during a phone call, but to your disappointment there is nothing but silence. No need to panic! There are several possible reasons why there is no sound coming from an AirPod. Here are four common causes you can check:
Check the volume
It may seem obvious, but sometimes the solution is as simple as checking the volume control. Make sure the volume is set high enough on your device and in the AirPods settings. Sometimes it may happen that the volume has been accidentally set to minimum or muted.
Clean your AirPods
Dirt, dust or debris can affect the sound quality. Check the speaker openings on each AirPod and carefully remove any dirt with a soft cloth or brush. Be careful not to damage the AirPods. Regular cleaning can do wonders and ensure the sound is clear and distinct.
Reboot
Sometimes small technical problems can occur that can be resolved with a simple restart. Disconnect your AirPods from your device, turn the device off and on again, and then reconnect the AirPods. This may re-establish the connection between the devices and return the sound.
Check for software updates
Both the AirPods and your device receive regular software updates that may contain bug fixes and improvements. Make sure both your AirPods and your device are updated to the latest software version available. Check your device settings or its app to check for and install updates.
These four steps should help you identify and possibly fix the problem when an AirPod has no sound even though it is connected to your device. However, if none of these steps work, there is a possibility that there is a hardware problem. In this case, we recommend that you contact
Keep in mind that the exact steps may vary depending on the device and software version. With a little patience and the right measures, you will hopefully be able to enjoy the full sound of your AirPods again soon.
This is what you can do to get sound on the AirPod again
There's nothing more frustrating than an AirPod that suddenly stops making sound. But don't worry, there are some steps you can take to fix the problem and restore sound on your AirPod. Here are some solutions you can try:
- Check connection; Make sure your AirPods are properly connected to your device. Open the Bluetooth settings on your device and see if the AirPods show as connected.If not, disconnect and reconnect. Sometimes a newly established connection can resolve the problem.
- Check the volume: It sounds obvious, but sometimes the volume on AirPod or your device may be set too low. Make sure the volume on both devices is high enough to hear the sound clearly. Adjust the volume accordingly and test again whether the sound can now be heard.
- Reset AirPod: Resetting your AirPod can sometimes help fix the problem. Go to your device's Bluetooth settings, select your AirPods, and click Forget Device. You can then reconnect the AirPods to your device and check whether the sound has returned.
- Check audio settings: Sometimes the audio settings on your device may be incorrectly configured. Check the sound settings and make sure the sound is redirected to the AirPods. Make sure AirPods are selected as the preferred audio device so that sound is transmitted properly.
- Update the software: Make sure both your AirPods and your device have the latest software updates. Sometimes errors or incompatibilities can be resolved with an update. Please check regularly for available updates and install them to ensure you get the best possible performance.
If after all these steps there is still no sound coming from your AirPod, there could be a hardware problem. In this case, I recommend that you contact
