Volume icon keeps reappearing in the middle of my screen. It will go away for a few minutes when I press the volume control and release quickly. It shows up most often when using my pad as a reader.
You might try this...you can set your side button on upper left corner edge of ipad to either mute volume or lock screen (stop it from rotating). Check how yours is set...Go into settings>general>Use side switch to:
see if it is set on mute. If it is switch it to Lock Rotation. Now that side switch will lock or unlock screen rotation.
See if that might stop your volume icon from popping up. Good luck!

You can always take it to the apple store and demonstrate the problem there, you'll probably receive a replacement.

Here is an iPad Repair Guide that shows how to open an iPad. If you want somebody else to do it for you go to iPad Repair NYC.

Try reseting the iPad by holding the home and power buttons simultaneously until the iPad completely shuts down and the Apple logo appears.
Once the Apple logo appears you can release the buttons. If this does not work, you may need to connect your iPad to your computer and do a factory restore using iTunes.

It is good to know I am not alone with this problem. Not being too savvy about computer function, I believe my best solution is to take it to an Apple store. Thank you for this advice
