I no longer can find my volume bar anywhere in music or double tapping the home button. Please help me in solving this issue. Thanks.
 
Have you tried restarting your iPod touch by holding down the sleep/wake button, then sliding the red slider?

Also, do you see anything in place of the volume slider?

And finally, have you updated to the latest iOS software?

I'm on a 1st gen jailbroken iPod running 3.1.3 I've tried powering off as well as restarting springboard. No there is nothing in place of the volume bar it's just gone =/ is there any way I could have accedently done this in the firmware settings? Thanks for all the help.

Yes. It only brings up the top menu where I can choose to change the tracking speed, repeat, shuffle, and the genius playlist.
 
The volume bar only comes up if you have headphones in ... on my first gen at least.
 
Do you have a speaker dock such as an iHome? When connected to an external device with its own volume control, the iPod's volume slider disappears. Sometimes I've found that my iPhone can get confused and think it is still in the dock after I disconnect it. Try plugging in a dock connector a couple of times and see if that helps.

If that isn't it, have you installed anything recently? Maybe there is a jailbroken app causing a conflict.
 
had the same problem, the hard-buttons didn't work either... it kinda seemed that the ipod coulnd't "find" the intern speakers anymore.
however, a reboot has done its job...

I have had small speakers plugged into the headphone Jack but thanks for the advice! I'll try using some headphones.

@wordoflife, thank you so much! It turned out that the lack of headphones is the problem. It's all fixed now and I have no problems. :) thanks again.
