You have two options for this problem, and neither should include Yahoo! answers!. You can either ask the person or store from whom you purchased your violin, or your violin teacher!. What's that!? Don't have a teacher!? Find one!. That should be your priority!. You will not learn the violin without lessons!. Sorry, but it's the truth!. It can happen, but it's unlikely and very slow and painful!. Find a teacher and have a few lessons!. Your new instructor can show you how to produce a tone on your violin!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Most new violin outfits are provided with a cake of rosin!. Take this out of the case and scratch the top of the cake of rosin lightly (first time only) with a pin, to get it started!. Rosin the bow hair liberally, from tip to frog, and dust off the excess!. Rosin is needed to "catch" the strings; a new violin will not play without rosin on the bow!. Www@Enter-QA@Com
Rosin is something that you rub on your bow hairs to make it 'sticky'!. If your bow is new you're going to need quite a bit of rosin, so it will 'grab' the strings, making sound!. You put rosin on your bow by rubbing the rosin up and down the bow with long strokes!. Try stroking the bow at least 10-15 times, if it still sounds quiet or won't make noise, rub a little more rosin on it!.

I am aghast that you buy a violin and then don't have the sense to get yourself a teacher to show you how to play the thing!. You will never achieve anything worthwhile on the violin without a teacher!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
Rosin is meant to add "grab" so to speak, to your bow!. Take the rosin and rub it up and down the bow (the part that you use on your strings)!

Rosin is used to make the bow stick to the strings and make bowing easier!. For violin, 10 strokes of rosin on the bow should be enough!.Www@Enter-QA@Com
