How do i set up my iPhone to chime when a new email arrives? right now, the chime only works after I tap the mail icon

How do I set up my 4S phone to chime when a new email arrives?  Right now, the chime only sounds after I tap the mail icon.  I need an alert to check my mail.  Comcast mail.  Settings for mail set at "fetch new data". Thank you

Try if this works for you
1. Tap Settings on Home Screen
2. Go to Mail, Contacts, Calendars
3. Tap on Fetch New Data
4. Turn "Push" to On
5. Back to Mail, Contacts, Calendars again
6. Under "Advanced", make sure that it is set to "Push" for all your mail accounts
Push means the server will literally push the mails to your iPhone whenever there is new mail. Fetch like the word says is where you have to manually update to receive new mail (what you are doing now)

  • How can you set up your iphone 4s to show 2 seperate email address but that are on the same domain

    I have 2 email address linked to me on Outlook. one is a personal one for me and one is a group email address but both on the same domain.
    I have my own inbox set up on my iphone and i have tried to set up the group email address on my iphone, but because the credentials are the same, it is only bringing through my emails and not the one for the seperate email address - is there a way round this?
    Many thanks

    What do you mean "the credentials are the same"? The part of the email address before the @ should be different. If not then you do not have two different email addresses.
    Just go into the mail settings and choose add account. Enter the info for the second account. It won't matter that your incoming and outgoing smtp server are the same. If it did how could millions of people all use Yahoo or Google?
    If what you really have is one email account with a rule set to send specific emails to another folder, someone else will have to help you.

  • How can I remove photos from iPhone...when I synced to another computer, it loaded up a ton a pictures from the laptop that I did not want on my phone

    Help!  I have 4 different computers that I plug my iPhone 4 into from time to time.  I just synced it with a laptop that I haven't plugged into for a long while, and it overloaded my phone with a ton of pictures from the computer that I did not want or need on my phone.  When I went to PHOTOS on my iTunes, and checked "sync checked folders only", it says it will replace the photos on my phone.  I'm not sure this is what I want...I don't want to lose the photos on my phone.  I have over 3000 on there!

    You can sync photos and itunes content with one and only one computer at a time.  When you sync to another, it will erase the current content and  replace with content from the new computer.

  • How do I set up my computer to announce when I get email?

    I use Comcast.net for my email, and it is the number 1 tab in my browsers home pages. I'm on a Windows XP system.

    You should be able to do this with the WebMail Notifier add-on available from https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/webmail-notifier
    Once installed you will need to add a script for it to add support for Comcast, available from http://webmailnotifier.mozdev.org/scripts
    You can set Webmail Notifier to display an alert or play a sound when new mail arrives.

    How does one disable auto-opening a blank document (either open blank OR template chooser) when PAGES launches?
    You can't. You will always get a new document or the template chooser depending on what you have set in the preferences. I suggest you leave feedback for the Pages team regarding this. You can find it under the Pages menu > Provide Pages Feedback. That takes you to the same page as this link.

  • How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

    How can I set up two iPhones with the same contact, photos, music etc... but a different sim card and phone number. They will both be my phones, but one will be for use in other countries.

    Phone A = phone with information you want duplicated
    Phone B = phone that you want to copy from A
    Backup Phone A.
    Wipe Phone B using these instructions. What to do before selling or giving away your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Phone B should be on the 'Hello' screen. Do not swipe it. Launch iTunes. Plug in Phone B.
    When iTunes asks if you want to set up as new phone or restore from backup, choose restore from backup of Phone A.
    After this setup, any changes to one phone (i.e. adding a contact, downloading an app) will have to be manually duplicated on the second phone, if that is your desire). Making changes to one phone will not affect the other after setup.

    Do you mean iTunes library?
    iTunes account is what you use to make iTunes purcahses.
    iTunes library is what is on your computer.
    It says my phone can only be set up woth one itunes account. How do I remove the previous account?
    No, it tells you it can only be sync'd with one iTunes library.
    Simplest way is to copy the entire /Music/iTunes/ folder (thisis the iTunes library) from old computer to new computer.

  • How do I set up my iphone 5 so I can access my family account? I purchased music from itunes using my apple id, and those songs do not appear in our family cloud.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can use different ID's for iTunes and iCloud.
    Just delete the account in settings > iCloud and create them their own account.
    if the children are minors, you wiil need to create and be responsible for each account yourself.

        How do I set up my iPhone 4s to sync automatically to iTunes when connected to my iMac via USB?  Currently it only syncs when I manually click on sync.
        Somehow I do have my 5th gen. iPod set up to sync automatically with the same iTunes / computer.  But I do not actually see a checkbox for either device.
        (yes, the 'prevent devices from automatically syncing' is unchecked)
