Recommendation for a new feature - alert when an important email arrives

Why can't I set my iPhone to give me an alert when an important email arrives?  This new feature would alert me when I get an email from a predetermined sender or subject line.  AOL offers this feature.  Why can't my iPhone do it too?  The phone would need to read the sender address and subject line of each email, and then bounce it against a list of pre-configured alerts that the user programs. 
This would also cut down on data consumption, since users would not have to check and recheck their mail when waiting for somethign important.  With an alert, you just set it and forget it.

iOS 6, coming this fall, will include a new feature that allows you to designate a VIP list for just this purpose.  This feature will be supported on the iPhone 4.  See "Mail" here: http://www.apple.com/ios/ios6/.

  • Got an idea for a new feature or feature improvement?

    Our FAQ contains a list of in progress and unfinished features, so please check that out.
    We're interested in hearing from you on how we can improve Parfait by improving or adding a new feature. Please provide as much detail as possible, and make sure to tell us why it is important to you. If your idea is for a new feature, it would be helpful to understand how you get it done now, and how the new feature would make your life better.
    Thanks!

    Helo Kieran,
    • Integration with Creative Cloud or LayerVault (LV would be nice for versioning etc.)
    BB> We're working on integrating with Creative Cloud. You'll get versioning, commenting, sharing (file or folder level), and sync. We expect to be able to roll this out later this year.
    • Importing guides from the .PSD as well as having the rulers on the sides
    BB> Good idea, and we're considering this. For now, some people are creating guides on a layer in Ps, then toggling that layer's visibility in Parfait.
    • When doing a Shift + Click on two elements, depending on the circumstance, spit out the margin or padding values into the CSS panel
    BB> This is also something we've considered. We think this should be done in combination with adding support for guides or another temporary measurement aid, so you can position the container around an item to make sure you get the info you want. Still working out design and details on this one, and no ETA.
    • Having something like a marquee tool to measure between two points (I know this can be done using the Shift+Click but some elements aren't accurate eg. images inside clipping masks)
    BB> Yes, we're considering this, as I mentioned in the point above.
    • The tags that are created when you select a font in the right-hand-side panel are black with a white "T", it's quite hard to see (not really a feature but I thought it was worth mentioning )
    BB> Thanks for the feedback, and we'll take another look at them to see if we can improve.
    And thanks for offering to help with testing - we are improving Parfait and pushing out new builds frequently, so please check back often and let us know what you think.

  • I could not remember my apple ID password so I made a request for a new one. When I received the email with the link on resetting my password it was addressed to John Ohare. My name is not John Ohare. Does this mean someone is hacked my iCloud account?

    Hello Corinne Craven,
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities!
    You can update the name on your Apple ID here:
    Appleid.apple.com
    If you suspect unauthorized access to your apple ID I would normally recommend resetting your password, but you have already done this.
    Here is some information about 2 step verification which is another level of security for your account.

    Be sure to read all the information in the article if you choose to use two-step verification.

    If your computer is running an OS X prior to Snow Leopard 10.6,
    the answer (if it is an Intel-based Mac; not old PowerPC model)
    would be to buy the retail Snow Leopard 10.6 DVD from Apple
    for about $20, and install it. Then update that to 10.6.8 by using
    the installed Snow Leopard online to get Combo Update v1.1 for
    Snow Leopard 10.6.8. After that is installed & updated, run the
    system's Software Update again, to see what else is available to
    that system.
    Later systems can then be looked into at Mac App Store, once
    the computer is running Snow Leopard 10.6.8.
    And if your computer is a Power PC (G4/G5, etc) and has no
    Core2Duo kind of CPU -- See "About this Mac" in apple menu
    to disclose the general info about your Mac. Also you can see
    even more by clicking on "More Info" when looking in there...
    If it isn't an Intel-based Mac, it can't run a system past 10.5.8.
    Hopefully this helps.
    Good luck & happy computing!

    Not possible. You need to update to v10.6.8
    Click your Apple menu > Software Update
    Or update using the this download > Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
    Then restart your Mac.

  • Recommendations for a new monitor?

    Greetings,
    I'm looking for a new monitor for my Powermac G4 450 MHz AGP (sawtooth).
    I'm currently using a Formac Gallery 1740 after 6 years it's starting to faded out on me.
    I'd really appreciate any suggestion or Recommendations for a new one.
    Aisha K.

    I'm using a 17" LCD, Acer model AL1706 on my G4 400MHz AGP. Was plug 'n play and has been flawless over the years. I'm sure the current model numbers are different.
     Cheers, Tom

  • Where can I send an idea for a new feature.

    I have an idea for a new feature in Illustrator. I'd like to share it to the developers.
    Is there a channel to send your idea?
    Thank you!

    Thanks for the replies.
    I know that this feature does not serve everybody, but I could use it on a weekly basis.
    I don't know if there is a script for this, and if there is, plese let me know it.
    Transparent working window.
    So I could set my whole artboard window transparent and still work on it.
    I could easily and fast trace some shapes from locked PDF's and also directly from the browser without copying the image to my computer.
    The problem is, of course, that Zoom would only work in the graphics in the Illustrator (needless to say) and would not affect to the graphics behind the Illustrator window.
    But still I think I could use it very much.
    For examble I could manually draw simple shapes and logos straight from the customers website, without downloading the poor JPG image.
    Please let me know what you think about it.
    Sorry if there is some mistakes, English is not my native.
    I hope you got the point.

  • Recommendation for maintaining pricing in CRM when R/3 is also in landscape

    Hi,
    in out context we have already SAP R/3 in the landscape, all the pricing in done in R/3. lot of custom pricing routines are also written in r/3.
    now we in the process of implementing CRM and plan to do Quotations in CRM and replicate in SAP R/3 . what is the recommendation for such a scenario.
    do we replicate all pricing conditions/procedures in CRM? do we need to re-do all procedures in IPC?
    can we re-determine pricing in R/3 so that we can avoid such work in CRM? we are using configurable products in R/3.
    please share your thoughts/best practices and any document will be of help.
    thanks
    RH

    Hi Swaroop,
               The Assignment of Buisness Partner classification from CRM to R3 is purely based on Classification
    so your initial Entry
    I chose B as classification & Z001 as an account group which is a copy of 0001. System takes it.
    was taken by the system
    now when you tried to make another Entry by the same Classification
    chose B again & this time Z002 acc gp (copy of 0002), and system does not allow?
    it checks for the Existing Classification and so does not allow the same
    Delete the Previous Entry and then Try Entering the New Entry
    The System shall Take it
    Hope it Answered your Queries...
    Revert Back for any Doubts..
    Also Chk the Link for details:http://help.sap.com/saphelp_crm50/helpdata/en/04/4d9ac77b2b11d3b52f006094b9114a/content.htm

  • Better process for introducing new features and explaining how they work

    There are all kinds of new features being added to the Creative Cloud app but knowing what they are and learning about how they work isn't the most user friendly process. The current process is read the release notes after updating to a new version. The release notes should hyperlink to the related features in the product help. It would be great if there was a "What's New" section for the Creative Cloud app itself with new releases which included an introduction to new features just like there is for the desktop products.

    This is a poorly explained reason about why is so important having a loupe in Photoshop. I've not also, used the best example, but I will. This belongs to the ADDITIONAL FEATURES: Loupe/Magnificator View:. Also, I will try to make my english clrearer, but here it goes:

    Hi All,
    In the new Release of of BW on HANA 7.4, I have come across new features like Multi dimensional exception Aggregation where we can use 5 different reference characteristics, Current member variable,. I would like to check these new features. Currently we are using SAP GUI 7.3. and could not find these new features in the query designer. Could you please suggest if there is a new GUI available to see these new features in Bex? or please let me know where can I find these new features.
    Best Regards
