Alarm clock - wake up to music

On my good old iPod I can set the alarm clock to wake me up to one of my playlists or anything else in my music library. This is not the case with the iPhone. Can someone get word back to Apple that future versions of the alarm clock should allow this. It seems to me there should be no technical reason not to do this, so why not?

Alarm Clock - Wake to a playlist

I think Apple should enable the alarm clock to allow you to wake to a playlist, in addition to the ringtones. I love to listen to music in the morning and I miss how my 1st gen nano could do this but 3 years later the iPhone cannot. I think Apple usually thinks of everything, so I was really surprised when I couldn't wake to a playlist. Please, make this a feature for a future update.

Have you provided feedback to Apple?

Otherwise even if Apple doesn't supply it when the 3.0 update comes around App's are meant to be getting access to the Playlist/Music so i'm sure one of the alarm clock app's will have it

Alarm Clock not repeating custom music

Hello,
so maybe, this is not an issue for most people, but i have to know, if other recognize this change to.
I´m not waking up so easy in the morning, so I used the Alarm tool of my iPhone daily and was happy, when Apple gave the opportunity for using your own music as wakeup tone. Before updating, I used a regular track for waking up. This constantly repeated itself, as long as i turned it off or used the snooze button. This was very convenient, because I´m not waking up on the first play, so i liked, that my iPhone was not giving up.
But after updating on iOS 8.3, the music stops after he plays the track ones and never repeat it again. If I look on the screen after a while, he still shows the option to use the snooze button, but no tone.
It´s frustrating, because i oversleep twice because of that, so I wondering, why Apple change that. I don´t think, that this is an Software issue, because all of my iOS devices (Phone, Pad, Pod) working the same way now.
Does anyone noticed that change too?
Regards, Appledomer

Use IHome Sleep. It is great!! You don't need an IHome either!!

Alarm clock dock speeding up music

Hey folks.
Got a new iPhone 4 8GB running on iOS 5.0.1 stock and an iPod touch 2nd Gen 32GB running jailbroken 3.1.2.
Both these devices, when the alarm goes off with music, the music is slightly faster then normal. Somewheres between 1.1X-1.25X the speed of what the song should be. (checked with friends, they notice it too, so I'm not crazy!) This happens on both devices, been happening on the ipod for probably a month or two, just got the iphone a few days ago. Restored the iPhone after noticing the issue is still happening, and it made no effect.
This only happens when the alarm goes off with the devices connected, and will actually still continue to happen on the devices themselves for anywheres from 4hours-2 days. I don't power off or power cycle my devices daily and can't figure out what stops the song speed up from happening.
I hit the reset pinhole switch on the bottom of the alarm clock, then took out the power cable and batteries, left it like that for an hour. Still happening after.

That is the alarm clock there, I honestly cannot figure this out. Been poking Google and Bing but nothing yet. Anyone have any ideas?
Thanks,

I would make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store and take the iPods and dock.
If you look at the dock connectors on the iPods do they look damaged? Like bend contact or broken plastic pieces?
Also, are you fully seating the iPods in the dock?

Music alarm clock battery draining

I like to be wake up in the morning by music and in windows8 I can choose music for alarm but sound volume cannot be regulated(too loud for me). So I installed aplication music alarm where sound volume for alarm can be regulated but it drain my battery for around 25% during night in flight mode. If I use windows alarm it doesn't drain battery but it is too loud. Does anybody knows better ap or anything else what I can do.

I played with this a bit tonight after discovering that my son's Touch apparently didn't wake with his iHome iH8.
I think that turning off the automatic screen lock on the Touch will prevent it from locking up, and allow the alarm clock to wake up the Touch to play music. I've run a couple quick tests and they seem to corroborate that. I'll let you know how it goes in the morning...
So, you've got a choice: hassle of no music via your iHome, or hassle of disabling the screen lock.

Music Alarm Clock

Hi. I was wondering if there is any way to use the ipod touch as an alarm clock that plays music. With my ipod video, it could either play a playlist, or my ihome alarm clock could play it. But with the touch, it cant play music with its own alarm, and the ihome cant wake it up and play it all at once. Does anyone know if there is something that will work? (why would apple take out something thats actually useful like this?)

IPad Air and Music library as alarm clock

Is there a way to use the music in my library on the iPad Air as alerts, like, for an alarm clock? Is there an app or something that will allow me to do this?
thanks!

Further to above
Progress Notable!
But before I outline the details, I wish to apologise to APPLE for laying the blame at their doorstep for loosing or misplacing those PDFs I have on the iPad 1, when I set up my iPad Air , by restoring from the backup of iPad 1, thus copying all data from the old to the new.
NOT REALLY THEIR FAULT AT ALL
Because a lot of the many PDFs had the same name, ie PDF.pdf, probably my fault more than anybody else's, so I can't blame APPLE for that. Just goes to show one should be a little more precise in creating these portable documents.
No wonder the poor program " lost its' marbles" when doing the updating and conversion/transfer.
However, I was able to recover most of them by personal email, and extracting and RENAMING the PDFs as I located them in their new home.
Those PDFs that we're locked an thus not email-able , I will deal with by
Viewing
Photoeing (if that's how you spell it).
And re-building the PDF from the photos, in unlocked format, after transferring these files either by Bluetooth or Wi-Fi, from the old to the new iPad.
So all is not lost, and I am thankful that my cautious approach to this matter in the first place, gave me the ability for this successful recovery.
That's my story and I'm sticking to it.
I hope this little story of my saga/experience may prove helpful to others yet to cross the chasm of updating.
Regards to all, including APPLE.
NICE STUFF YOU MAKE.

Would like to use an alarm clock. I need the alarm clock to function from the sleep mode. A review said that MAC products will not allow a program to wake up a Mac. Is this correct ? Are there any products in the Mac store what will function from the sleep mode ? How do I check this out ?

You can set times for your computer to turn on or wake from sleep in the Energy Saver system preference pane using the Schedule... button.

Best music Alarm clock app

WHats the best alarm clock app that you can choose your song from your playlist, and the app dosent need to be open
ANd would not drain out your battery?

When you turn the phone off it is just that, it is off. There can't be an alarm app that would work with the phone off.
If all you have running is the alarm clock you will only lose an insignificant amount of charge. Or you could leave it plugged in to the wall charger.

How can I turn my Mac using iTunes into an alarm clock?

Here's my question: How can I turn my Mac, using iTunes, into an alarm clock?
I want to be able to put my Mac to sleep but have it set up so that when it wakes up at the predetermined time iTunes will open and start playing the music I've selected....
A "musical alarm clock"...
A friend suggested using the Energy Saver option in Sys. Preferences to wake the computer at the right time. He said that then I could use iCal to start iTunes. I would then have to use an Apple Script to get iTunes to play the song I want.
But is there a SIMPLER way to do this? Are there any programs out there that do this already??
Thanks for any help....

I recently got a copy of AlarmClock Pro from MacWorld UK. It is shareware, I think it is (USD?)19. I haven't had a chance to try it out much, but it does look quite good. I have an older version. The latest version looks even better.
I'm sure there's plenty of freeware apps out there. You might also want to try looking here for an applescript here Doug's AppleScripts for iTunes

Problems with 'Alarm Clock'

Good day.
I use my Ipod as Alarm Clock - it's pretty good to wake up while listening to the favourite music. I made it to start playing playlist without beeping.
I don't know why, but sometimes (after watching video, listening to the music before I go to bed) my alarm clock doesn't work correctly: when it's time to wake up, it just shows a message *wake up* as usually, but without playing music, so I'm being late for some times already...
Please, tell me what to do, how to fix this problem, 'cause I hate ordinary beeping alarm clocks.
P.S.: Sorry, if my english isn't very good.

Pick a sound, song, etc. for the alarm and make sure it is not the default one.

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 as alarm clock

this shouldn't be too hard for all you clever people,
i just wondered if its at all possible to have itunes wake up my imac at a pre decided time and start playing music, so it would work as an alarm clock so to speak.
Any ideas?

There is also third party software that work with itunes to become a music alarm clock.
Google 'iRooster" and "Power Controller".
