Why does my mute button not work?

[Ray of Hope]

.Despite going to settings and ticking that I want the side button to be used for mute it still doesn't work !!

Any ideas as to why this is not working?

Regards,

Ray

Not sure why. Mine works when I set it to Mute. Make sure that once you change it in settings that you slide the switch over so that the Mute feature is activated.

Try rebooting.

Go to iOS 5 and use AssistiveTouch. It has a way to mute and unmute your iPad 2.

Only if you are a registered developer should you do this.

If you can't get to work, try rebooting or restoring your iPad.
