Alarm keeps going off on 3GS

My wifes 3GS's alarm keeps going off constantly. There is no alarm set on the phone but it keeps going off dozens of times a day. She has tried the soft reset with no luck. The constant alarm is killing her battery life. Any ideas?

Have you had a quick look through the forum for all the other posts regarding this, or read the newspaper or watched TV in the last couple of days?

    No such message occurs.
    Are you trying to state that it says "Unable to activate"? 
    If so, this typically indicates the device has been hacked or jailbroken.  If that is the case, no support can be provided via these forums.

  • Alarm incorrectly going off since Daylight Savings Time

    My alarm is always set for 6:30AM Monday through Friday.
    Since Daylight Savings last week, my phone has consistently gone off at 5:30AM, and the 6:30 alarm doesn't go off. If I set a later alarm, say for 6:31AM (in addition to the 6:30AM alarm), my phone will go off at 5:30, and then 6:31... disregarding the 6:30 alarm.
    I have deleted my alarms and then rebooted the phone, and then added the alarms back in. Unfortunately, my phone keeps going off an hour earlier than it should.
    Last night I set an alarm for 6:31AM and deleted the 6:30 alarm, and my phone went off at 5:31, disregarding the 6:31 alarm.
    Any ideas on how to fix this, or am I doomed to wake up at 5:30 the rest of my life?

    Or you could expect a product that you pay for to work as it's supposed to.
    I don't disagree with that.
    The iPhone, and ALL smart phones are highly complex devices. There are several hundred different programs all interacting with each other, in addition to the phone operating system.
    This software is constantly being changed and updated. Certain versions will be stable with certain applications. Updates can cause bugs (like the clock not working).
    I am a pilot. I do not use the navigation programs on the iPhone. I use a FAA certified navigation system, because I need something more reliable.

  • Alarm not going off in Lumia 520

    Recently I updated my Lumia to WP8.1 and a couple of days later I find my alarms not going off at all, or they do so on random days.
    It is really a big issue for me cuz I have to wake up early quite often and without an alarm its impossible.
    Please do help or suggest an alternative
    Solved!

    If its the Built-in Alarm, I don't think there is any Volume setting for it .. Its independent of the Ringer+Notification as well as Media+Apps Volume. BTW, do you atleast see the Alarm screen displayed when the time is reached ? If yes, did you try selecting any other Tone ? 
    Try a Soft Reset : Press and hold Power + Volume(down) keys until the phone vibrates (about 8-10 seconds). Phone will reboot. Then check whether it gets resolved ...

  • TS3276 All accounts keep going off line, quitting Mail fixes the issue

    All accounts keep going off line, quitting Mail fixes the issue.
    I have 3 Gmail, 1 hotmail and a yahoo. Al go off line with a little alert symbol next to them.
    If I select take all accounts on line nothing happens.
    Email delivery stops.
    To fix this, I quit Mail and re launch it. That fixes it.
    It's realy annoying.
    Any ideas?

    I have the same problem - it started when I upgraded to OS X 10.8
    I thought subsequent releases may help, but I'm now on 10.8.2 and no joy.

  • Tri tone alert keeps going off?

    Tri tone alert is not one of the options i chose on my phone but it keeps going off.  There isi nothing displayed on screen when it does this please help anyone.

    I'm having the same problem, although I DO have tri-tone alert for my message sound, but it keeps going off even when I get no texts and this just started early this morning around 3am or so. I don't know how to fix it either but it can't be glitching cus it's old because I got this phone a month ago.

  • My Iphone 5 clock alarm isnt going off when its "on sound", it acts as if its on vibrate and doesnt wake me up. Started with the IOS upgrade. Is there a bug?

    My new Iphone 5 clock alarm isnt going off where I can hear it.  Its started on my 4S when I upgraded to IOS6 and even on the Itouch too.  I set the clock alarm, turn on sound (not silent), the alarm goes off, but no sounds comes out.   I have to reset home to get it to recognize its off, but that doesnt always work, it did it on both my Itouch and Iphone5 I almost over slept this morning because never of them went off and woke me up.   Acted as it the sound was down (which it wasnt) and it was on silent mode (which it wasnt)  Is there a bug with this?  I cant trust my phone now to wake me up.  Any help?  Thanks Tracey

    Same problem here. Me and my girlfriend swapped iphone 5's (she has white, I have black) in may and I rely on the alarm every morning to wake me up for work. It hasn't let me down.
    A few days ago I set 2 alarms very early in the morning to wake me up for an early morning flight. Neither alarm made a sound & I missed the flight!!
    We then swapped our phones back & she has just had exactly the same thing happen & has missed an important meeting at work. Again, quite an early morning alarm. The odd thing is I have a black iphone 5, also latest OS,  never had this happen to me...
    Has anyone solved this problem. I can't make it repeat (reset the same alarm for a different time & it goes off fine).
    Does I need to buy her a dedicated alarm clock!?!

  • My imac mail keeps going off line and can't send out emails even when it when it comes back on line for a short while

    Need help in getting rid of this annoying pop up problem. All my Inbox keeps going off line. Comes back very intermitently.

    That can't be it if it is working intermitently.
    Actually, more often than not, this is caused by duplicate entries in either Mail's Outgoing SMTP servers, or in Keychain.
    Open Keychain Access in Utilities, use Keychain First Aid under the Keychain Menu item, then either check the Password under that item, change it/them, or delete it/them and start over.
    Resetting your keychain in Mac OS X...
    If Keychain First Aid finds an issue that it cannot repair, or if you do not know your keychain password, you may need to reset your keychain.

  • Mail accounts keep going off line since Mountain Lion upgrade

    My iCloud accounts keep going off line after a while. When Mail asks me if I want to take my accounts online (after pressing the exclamation triangle) nothing happens. The only way to get my accounts back online is to close and reopen Mail. Any thoughts?

    It might be worth pointing out I get the error message "The server returned the error: The server “p04-imap.mail.me.com” cannot be contacted on port 993.".
    I've tried having Use SSL checked and unchecked but it doesn't seem to help. The only thing that solves it is closing and reopening Mail.
    Finally it would now appear that it only happens after the mac has been woken from sleep.

  • Mail keeps going off line

    Ever since I got my iPhone my regular mail keeps going off line. I click to put it back online but that doesn't work. The only way I can get it back up is to restart my computer. Anyone else have this problem?

    Hi Brenda,
    Not much to go on so far, but let's start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    How do you connect to the Internet, and do Browsers quit working at the same time Mail does?
