Accurian alarm clock screen issue

Hi,
I checked the discussions before posting this, and I'm surprised no one's posted anything regarding this issue.
I just bought an Accurian alarm clock at Radio Shack (very retro, love it!). I'm very impressed with the sound, but the screen will not shut off, the iPod stays on all night. This cannot be good for the iPod's screen, I'm afraid it will shorten the display's life. I've tried to turn the screen off manually; it does turn off, but turns right back on as long as it's docked. I have not contacted Radio Shack, so I thought I'd check here first. Does anybody else have this alarm clock, and have you figured out how to make the screen shut down? If I can't work around this, I might have to return the item. I'm just too scared about the display life. Anyone out there figure this out yet? Thanks for any help.

Hi and welcome to the community! Since you're new please be sure that you have checked out our Discussion guidelines.
That sounds strange.First of all try to clear data for clock under settings > apps > all > clock > clear data. Restart your device and try again.
If the behavior persists, I would suggest that you try to boot your phone into safe mode to see if the problem may be related to any 3rd party app that you have installed in your phone:

What's wrong with you? Oh, now that you realized you made a mistake and I didn't say "Alarming"? The app tited "Alarmed" is the first thing that pops up if you search the App Store using the search term "Alarmed". It is also the name of the app as it appears on the screen of my phone. Oh, and the developer refers to it as "Alarmed" on his website.It may not have occured to you but, it is possible for more than one app to have the same name. Most of the people here are smart enough to figure out which one is the alarm clock by reading the description. But, we've already covered the reading comprehension thing,

Nokia N8 Belle Alarm Clock Issue

I was finally able to update my N8 to Nokia Belle a week ago and was reasonably impressed with it's attempt at an Android Froyo kind of thing, it is a step in the right direction. However-
I set a several alarms for between 6:45 and 10am today (I'm a fairly heavy sleeper). I snoozed the first alarm by turning over the phone to give me a few more minutes of sleep. The next thing I know, my sleep is breaking and it's 9:32am! All without a sound from any of my alarms.
I looked at my phone, and saw the box with 'Stop' and 'Snooze' on it, for the 6:45 alarm, as if it had just been activated and was waiting for me to choose either option. I pressed 'Stop' to get rid of the box and suddely similar boxes for all the other alarms started popping up in rapid succession, only then. What happened???
I was willing to wait 6 months past the original release date because I assumed such bugs were being sorted out properly; a smartphone shouldn't still be grappling with Alarm clock bugs - it should have better things to do. I'm hoping there's a quick solution to this problem, as I cannot wait two years for the next update. Please advise!
Also why does shuffle deactivate everytime I return to my song list? Seems silly, really - I don't want to have to keep turning it back on.

First thing First!
AlarmClock: Being Honest! theres no such issues with the Default Alarm app. U might hav done sumthing unusual during sleep or your app had been crashed or it might b buggy or may b sum RAM issues.
Its not a General issue.
I myself is a Heavy sleeper lke You!
I too set 7 Alarms within 6:30 - 10:00 range.
All works fine with my Nokia N8-00 Belle.
MusicPlayer: Yeah! this had been a big problem for Music lovers that when you are Dazzling on SHUFFLE mode & once you clicked on a particular song in a list, the SHUFFLE is de-activate itself.
It might be a problem for Some people, but Logically speaking If you are in A Shuffle mode, u should not interrupt the playlist, if you do it gets deactivate automatically.
Nokia got a point this time

Alarm clock issue after OS upgrade to 5..0.0.973

I upgraded to 5.0.0.973 and now I have issues with my alarm clock not displaying the time while charging at my bed side. I have Verizon and tried using the latest upgrade from Sprint. 5.0.0.1030 but the alarm clock issue remains. Rolling back the upgrade I am told would be one answer, but is there a way to dispose of the offending file somehow might be a good fix. Totally frustrated with BB at this point. One of the few things l like about my phone and they mess it up!! The Droids and the I-wanttobetrackedeverywhereIgophone is looking attractive these days.

Well i have the same issue, let me go over the items i have done.
First did the OTA upgrade. Issue happened.
then i downgraded to .886. worked normal.
Updated with Desktop Manager. Issue happened.
Wipe of Device to see if software conflict. Issue still happens.
also done several batteries pulls to see if that would fix it. still issue happens.
I've just downgraded again to .886 and it works. at this point i am going to be staying with .886 unless a fix is found for .973.

Alarm Clock (NOT Jan. 1 issue)

I've had an issue with my iPhone alarm clock for a while now. If your alarm starts going off and then you get another notification then the alarm stops going off. I feel this is something that definitely should not be happening. I wanted to e-mail Apple directly about this, but couldn't manage to find the e-mail address. I'm assuming it's probably just [email protected], but I wanted to find the site link for it so that it would actually go directly to the right department.
Anyways, anyone else ever have this issue? I would love to see a fix for this come out considering it's been an issue as long as notifications have been around.

I have a feeling it's not a huge problem because of the fact that it has not yet been addressed. I will check the places you suggested as well as call Apple, but I have a feeling neither will have a solution.
I figured out how to replicate the issue. I have a game that will send people on missions and when they get back it gives a notification. I sent someone on a mission that took two minutes and then set an alarm to go off after 1 minute. The alarm starts going off, but then when the notification for the mission complete comes up the alarm stops sounding and vibrating. This is a huge problem in my eyes, and should definitely be taken care of.
If anyone else could try replicating this and let me know their results I'd be very grateful.
Thanks,

Issues with Alarm Clock and Calendar Notifications

I have noticed that when I am using the Alarm clock, it will not go off when the calendar is showing a meeting reminder....
Is there any way to dis-activate this? My alarm clock will not work.. and there are too many appts in my calendar to go thru them to change...

I also have the same issue. If the alarm is set and the calendar sends a notification just prior to the alarm time, the calendar notification prevents the alarm from going off. I understand it is a bug, but when will it be fixed? What is the bug ID? how do we track known bugs so we know they are being fixed? The problem is with the iPhone's included clock and calendar apps, so it is not a 3rd Party application issue, right? Thanks!

Issues with Alarm Clock after DST switch

Since ages now my iPhone's alarm clock is setting off at 6am...Since ages? Yep! True! But, actually: BUT not any more since the DST switch last weekend.
Since then it sets off one hour late!!!
And this without having changed anything in the definition of the alarm!
And this with the phone's time displaying the right (winter) time!

This is an acknowledged bug on iOS4.1 (at least according to an article on the Guardian). It was found about 3 weeks ago in Australia and NZ where DST change happened then. It only affects recurring alarms (one-off alarms are working fine). I have to do some research but it looks that also affected some calendar appointments set on time zones different than mine. The recommended action is to set up one-off alarms only but I find better to set my recurring alarms one hour early until a patch is issued by Apple.

Alarm Clock Issues

I created the alarm clock app and it works fine from when I self start up, but it does not auto wake to the time I set in the energy saving options menu. I tried letting it completely shut down and start itself up and just sleeping, but neither would result in it starting and running the app. Are there any minor details I could be missing?

IPhone Alarm Clock issue after iOS4.0 upgrade

This is a strange one;
Upgraded to i0S4.0 couple of days ago, and since then the default alarm clock app has gone haywire. It has duplicated each of my alarms (I must've had about 9 in there fore various things) about 50 times.
If I try and delete them, they disappear but if I exit and then re-enter the app, they're all there again!
Any suggestions?
Cheers.

I'm having the same issue. I had 8 or 9 legitimate alarms set, as well, but now there are somewhere between 1500 and 2000 with a couple hundred duplicates of each one. The number of duplicates is growing, too, but I can't tell if the additions happen each time I sync the phone or each time the clock program is reloaded on the phone. I noticed this first on my 3G after upgrading it, and it is also happening on the iPhone 4 having all my data transferred from a backup made of the 3G running 4.0. I've also noticed that if I try to delete them from my phone, at some point the clock program becomes nearly unresponsive causing even other programs than the clock to crash and requiring the phone to be resynced.
I've seen a couple of people mentioning similar issues in other threads that sound like they could be related or even the same, and they are always talking about upgrades on the same phone. There doesn't seem to be anyone affected who transferred directly from a 3.x device to a new 4.0 device.
While not a solution, here's at least my suggestion of why it's happening. I've poked around a bit in the backup files stored on my laptop from this phone (under ~/Library/Application Support/MobileSync), and I've found two different plist files in the same backup storing the alarms in two slightly different formats.
This is purely conjecture, but I would guess what happened is the location & format between 3.x and 4.0 of where the alarm data is stored changed. The "upgrade" isn't a complicated process that mulls over and handles situations like this during the install. It's just a wholesale firmware replacement. Any changes like this would probably need to be handled by the actual programs themselves when they're running on the phone. Something in the upgrade process that's supposed to translate the old format to the new format is broken leaving behind the old data instead of removing it after the conversion, and every so often some trigger in the clock program (like a check for new data after a sync or just the initial loading when the phone restarts) is causing it to see that old 3.1 style data still there, redo the conversion process, and reimport what it finds as another set of duplicates.
That's only a guess, though, and as it's a one-way backup-only folder I can't edit them and resync to see if cutting them out of the data files on the laptop will remove them from the phone. Even if this is wrong, though, I can't imagine how it could be anything too far different from this. That would be a very simple bug to introduce into the code that would be specialized enough to be easy to overlook in testing. Again, that's all just a guess.
While I'm making wild speculations: I'm guessing the problem with the phone needing to be resynced when deleting several alarms is from one of these files on the phone storing the alarm data getting corrupted. If I was a betting man, I'd say this is likely due to corruption making the XML of the plist malformed from different threads writing changes to it simultaneously because it's so huge from all these entries and seeking through the file to update it is taking longer than anyone would reasonably expect and test for or program to protect against. Because, honestly, who thinks while coding something like this, "I need to make sure the user is safe when editing 2000 alarms..."

HT4972 since update to IOS 5.1.1 - problem with iluv IMM173 DUAL DOCK ALARM CLOCK DOCKING STATION. - CRASHES WHENEVER UPDATED IPHONE 4S CONNECTED

Hi, since most recent update (IOS 5.1.1) to my iphone 4s, I am experiencing problems(ONLY SINCE MOST RECENT IOS 5.1.1.UPDATE) with my 'iluv' IMM173 DUAL DOCK ALARM CLOCK DOCKING STATION.
Every time I connect my iphone it causes the docking station to crash/freeze and become totally non-responsive. However, if I remove my iphone, then connect my wife's
iphone 4 (IOS 5.0.10) The docking station then syncs time and date as normal with the iphone, and reverts back to function normally.
Has anyone else experienced the problem please, and if so, is there a remedy ?

1. I cannot open my camera from the home screen. The icon is there but when you click on it it shakes and starts to open up but than slides down back to the home screen. I have tried closing the camera app resetting my phone but nothing seems to fix it. I can still open up the camera regularly by unlocking the phone first and than going to the camera app. But the camera button on the home screen just doesn't work for me anymore. I know with 5.1 they made it where it wont disappearing from the home screen so my guess is the issue must be related to that somehow.
From the locked screen, swipe the camera icon upwards to open the camera app. This is a new feature in 5.1.

Iphone alarm clock makes no sound

The day after daylight savings my iphone alarm clock stopped making any noise. Its very stressful and im sure its not on silent, do not disturb. The ringer and volume are all turned up it just doesnt even vibrate. Its not that it doesnt say there is an alarm, the screen will turn on and say an alarm is present but it just wont make any noise or vibration ): . This happened right after daylight savings and ive had enough is anyone else having this issue. I really dont want to restore it just is so much work. I mean i will if i have to but has anyone come up with an easy solution?

Have you tried resetting your device (nothing will be lost): Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Apple appears (up to 30 seconds). Once the Slide to Unlock screen redisplays, go into your Alarm, edit it, and see if the sound is playing correctly when you select the alarm sound.
You can also try editing it to a different alarm sound to see if that is working.

ALarm clock and sleep behavior

I am using Alarm Clock 2.3.8 with my G5, which wakes the computer up at a specified time and plays music to wake me up, but one issue I noticed on testing it. I have a password set to wake the computer from sleep and screen saver, and when the computer wakes up, if the password is not entered within about a minute, the computer goes back to sleep, which I know is a normal behavior, but in this application is kind of annoying. But also, when this happens, it effectively puts Alarm Clock in snooze mode so the G5 wakes back up a few minutes later and continues like this.
Is there any way to change the sleep parameters so that it won't go back to sleep if the password is not entered on wake?
G5 Dual 2 GHz and iBook G4 14-inch 1 GHz Mac OS X (10.4.8)

LOL. You could buy an alarm clock.
While waking to music may be nice, I find the alarm function of my Nokia phone to be the absolute best alarm clock I've ever used: it starts out at a low volume and then quickly escalates to an ear-splitting level that I find impossible to sleep through. It also has a snooze function, though the alarm is so effective that it wakes me from even the deepest sleep.
Most cell phones have alarm features, so you may want to try that if you have a mobile and want to eschew an alarm clock.
Good luck!

ITunes Alarm Clock with Airplay

Up to a year ago, I had an alarm clock application which I got from the App Store that did a nice alarm clock playing one of my iTunes play list at a certain time in the morning.
Then I moved my computer from my bedroom to my office. So I can't hear the iMac from my bedroom. Ok, so I got a set of speakers that can be invoked using AirPlay from iTunes. As a manual operation it is exactly what I wanted. However, the alarm clock application has no option to set the Air Play option on iTunes. If I run iTunes and select my Air Play speakers, when the Alarm clock plays a Playlist, iTunes resets the output to the Computer. <Sigh>
A few months ago, I found a script that would set the Air Play output device and run a play list. I was set. However, I found no option to run this on a schedule. Since Mountain Lion, the option to run a script from a calendar event was removed. <double sigh>
Someone suggested Keyboard Maestro which looks like an excellant application for many things. However, at that point, Apple released iTunes 11 which I installed. Now I find that the scripts I found on the internet to select Air Play and a particular device via Apple Script no longer works with iTunes 11. <now I'm up to groan>
Playing around with Keyboard Maestro, I found a way to record a script within KM that will allow me to manipulate the U/I of iTunes with keystrokes and mouse clicks to do what I want. Problem solved??
NO. It turns out that the macro I defined in Keyboard Maestro works just fine EXCEPT that if the Screen Saver if running, KM cannot do U/I actions (this according to KM's author who has been very responsive to my requests for support). He is not sure there is any way to do it.
I'm experimenting to verify this statement by turning off the Energy saver options to turn off the CPU and display and not do Screen Saver. If that works then I have narrowed down my issue. I should know tommorrow (I did a test last night but forgot to display the Screen Saver and so it didn't accomplish what I wanted).
Does anyone know how I could solve the problem? Is there some kind of program I could run that would turn off the Screen Saver when run so the U/I is up and running again when the script I have would work?
Any other ideas?
Thanks,
Bruce

Did you ever find a solution? I have the same problem.

How to: Turn of the alarm clock after you've pressed snooze?

Hello,
In the morning I like to use snooze once or twice and because there's a possibility of falling asleep again, I always use snooze instead of turning of the clock. However, when I do get up, I'd like to turn of the alarm and snooze, which I cannot find out how to do. I always have to wait for it to go of again, so I can turn it of.
I have found out that if you go to clock -> alarm clock feature, turn off and on again the alarm clock, it solves the issue, but the everyday clicking of that is frustrating.
Is there an faster easier way?
I also noticed there is a snooze countdown on the screen, but sliding it, does not turn it off.
Thanks,
Reg,
MG
