Alarm sounds - using songs in iphone 4

I want to use a song on my IPhone 4 for alarm sound. I had been doing this, but since recent IOS update, the phone prompts me to download any song I choose ..... and they are already on my phone. If I ignore this message, the alarm is just vibration. The normal choices of alarm sounds work. Why did it work before, not not work now?

My phone did this... My emojis that I had after contact names that were disappearing and reappearing... Then I would add them back and they'd disappear again. I have an iPhone 5 and haven't seen any posts about it :/

IPhone Alarm Sound Used on My Name is Earl

Tonight (09-27-07) I was watching "My Name is Earl", yes I know...we are all supposed to be smarter than that here but, they used the iPhone's Alarm sound about 3 times during the prison scenes to simulate problems within the prison. The showed a big horn speaker and you heard the iPhone Alarm sound. If you get a chance to catch a re-broadcast you will know in a second that's where they got the sound. Maybe it's a royalty free sound and Apple took it from the same library of sounds that the TV producers got theirs from. Again, kind of dumb but thought it was worth mentioning.

Yup... Apple swiped it from "The Hollywood Edge" a sound library used for scoring movies and tv shows

How do you get rid of unwanted alarm sound songs?

Hey guys. I'm stumped. I have an iphone 5 that I recently set back to factory settings so it's cleared out of music. And I don't sync my phone with my itunes library on my macbook as I don't want music on my phone.
BUT I noticed there's 246 songs on my alarm sounds area, where you can pick what alarm sound you want. And they all have the icloud with arrow symbol to the right of them? I don't use icloud for music. I only use icloud for contacts and find my iphone.
How do I delete these 246 alarm songs from my phone?!? I accidentally touched the icloud with arrow symbol on one of the songs and it housed it permanently in my phone's songs app. Help!!!

Not sure how iCloud music with an iCloud icon meaning it has not been downloaded can appear with Show All Music off.
When you restored the iPhone with iTunes, did you restore from the iPhone's backup or as a new iPhone or not from the backup?

How to remove an Alarm Song from Alarm Sound list?

When using the standard Clock app, how do I remove an alarm song from the Alarm sound list under Edit Alarm? I can add new songs, but cannot find a way to remove unwanted ones.

The two most played songs are added by default, & there is a limit of 5 songs that can be added. The only way to remove a song is to keep adding a new song until the one you want removed is removed.
Tell Apple you want better control of this here:

Cannot set a song as alarm sound

Hey there,
I have been trying to set a song as my alarm sound on my Xperia Z but have not been having much luck. I followed the advice that I found on a thread on this website, but it still is not working.
So far I have created a file named "Alarms" and placed a song in that file. The song then appears in my list of potential alarm sounds, but when I select it as the alarm sound, and the alarm goes off, it just plays a default alarm sound, rather than the song that I selected.
I have tried rebooting the phone and clearing my media data as well, but the song still does not play when the alarm goes off. Any other ideas?
Thanks!!

Are you able to play the same song using the Walkman player?
Which build number are you running on?
Have you tried this with other songs as well?

Can i change the default alarm sound on Iphone 4s

Can the default alarm sound be changed for new alarms. My mother got an Iphone 4s recently and she can use Siri to set alarms for her, however the default alarm sound is always chosen and that is just not a loud enough sound. And it takes a some messing about to change the sound of the alarm and my 60 year old mother has trouble with changing it.
Is there any way i can make it change perminently, any help would be much appriciated.

The default alarm sound is the last sound you used.

Under Alarm - Sound button is greyed out in Iphone 5, can you please let me know how to activate it?
I m not able to select other tones for the Alarm since it's greyed.
The phone literally hangs and I had to come out of the screen by pressing the home button.

Hi Mahendra KK,

How delete Songs in Clock Add Alarm Sound?

In ios 7 under Clock<Add Alarm<Sound, there's a section at the top named 'Songs,' which I don't recall seeing before. There are 3 songs there from my iTunes, and I don't recall ever adding them there. How do I delete them? There's no Edit button there, and the songs are not listed under General Settings<Sound<Ringtones.
Thank you,
William

I was not aware of the fact one could use ringtones as alarms, this will suffice! Although I foresee some very awkward times as the sound does not stop once I respond to the reminder (it keeps going for good five - ten seconds after I "stop" the reminder), but it's better than missing it altogether!
Thank you very much!
Regarding the Alarmed app, doesn't it have to be running to actually remind you?
-Modular747: I don't know anyone who actually reads the terms of service agreement, those things are usually up to thirty, small print pages full of legal jargon. Rules, I do read - not the legal documents (also they often contradict the laws in my country, but that's a whole different story).
I agree with you - the average customer support consultant mostly cares about keeping his job and earning his salary (don't we all?) and thus racking up completted tasks (i.e. getting rid of customers as fast as possible - in a good mood). The "threat" none the less is real, if a cell phone causes me more trouble than it is worth, I will indeed throw it away (I have done so before) - and recommend a different brand to anyone willing to listen.
Don't get me wrong, I love Apple and I've been faithfully using and recommending their producs for twenty years now, not because of fanboyism, but because they earned it. This calendar issue, however, is like a toaster that doesn't automatically eject the toast at the set time. I see it as a major flaw and after googling around a bit I see that it's been around since at least 2007 (THAT'S SEVEN YEARS!!) so I strongly believe they are aware of this problem by now, but are choosing to ignore it for some mysterious reason and it really ****** me off.
I will send the feedback but based on my observations I suspect the Send button is merely a cleverly disguised Delete button.

Can I use a Bluetooth headphone/microphone for capture sound instead of normal iPhone mic when shooting video?

Can I use a Bluetooth headphone/microphone for capture sound instead of normal iPhone mic when shooting video?
The sound when I record video is not so good, so I'm trying to use the Bluetooth headphone/microphone to capture a person voice but not know which setting to use.

Hi Robert
Thanks for answering. I didn't know where to post other than the bluetooth forum which is relatively quiet and had no answers forthcoming.
Yes the voice isn't reaching the amp although it is registering on the input bar in the Sound System Prefs, just won't "play through" as it were. I can't see how it could be done I was just hoping someone might see something I am missing.
It seems a shame that you can't do it as iTunes on an old iBook makes a good juke box for DJ'ing and with everything becoming wireless these days it seems sensible that you could cut that one last wire.

If your phone is offline, the ONLY way to find it is to look for it the old fashioned way. Your phone CANNOT be located electronically if it's offline.

If you add music videos to Up Next playlist, then go to look at the album cover playing screen, then go to add another song from different playlist, you no longer can see Up Next, just go to full screen mode button. Using remote app iPhone 5 to play out of iTunes. It looks like it works fine for regular music, but for music videos you can't see your up next unless you go back on the computer to change once you've left the screen. When using the remote app, you shouldn't need to go to iTunes on the PC to view or edit Up Next already added. See first image, you can hit upper right and get back to Up Next (second image). Third image is music video, where you can't get back to Up Next, just swap between full screen and not. I hoped 3.0.1 would have the answer, no luck!

wow, very nice review Makes me want to get a vision for myself.

I would love that feature. I can't stand useing my computer with a single wall paper anymore (I have 500 anime pics that i rotate between every 2 mins ) If you could make the vision rotate background every x minutes or every time the player is turned on, it would be totally amazeningly sweet!!!! (i might have to go out and buy one then :P)
I just hope that creative has better firmware support with the vision than they have had with the touch.
Once again, great review

I used my friend itune to transfer songs to my iphone 4 but when i am using itunes from my laptop i am not able to tranfer songs to iphone.. but from my friends laptop is working.. why and what need to do ?

I used my friend itune to transfer songs to my iphone 4 but when i am using itunes from my laptop i am not able to tranfer songs to iphone.. .. why and what need to do ?

I would suggest that join your iphone with iTunes and do not sync. Than in your info window of iTunes uncheck auto sync of songs and videos. Check Mark for manual selection of songs. Also uncheck sync of songs window. After this sync your iphone and manually copy your songs from your iphone through itune by opening music under your iphone icon in the left status bar and copy to your laptop music folder. I think it would help out. I did same for myself. Try out. TC

When using Find My iPhone, is it possible to hear live sound around the device?

When using Find My iPhone app on the iPad2, is it possible to hear live sound around a device wham the "Play Sound" button is tapped?

Yes.

Using iTunes store I hv purchased 5 Video songs driectly on iPhone.I have paid $1.30 per song. Now I am not able to play those songs on iphone.I am getting error message "Unknown Error" If I do not connect any WiFi or 3G.

When WiFi or 3G data services are off it gices error message- "Unknown Error". I have spent so much money and can't play my Video songs on iPhone without using networ.
Please help.

I am experiencing the same issue as dwarfland. I have a black 64GB iPhone 5s running iOS version 7.1.1 and a grandfathered unlimited data plan with AT&T. I have had an iTunes Match subscription pretty much since it was introduced. I currently have around 19500 songs in my music library and try to have only around 2000-2500 songs physically located on the phone itself (all of my "top-rated" songs in a single playlist). I have recently needed to re-download all these "top-rated" songs after I restored my phone from a backup, wiping all the songs from my phone. Thanks for posting your experiences, hopefully someone from Apple will notice and help us out with a solution.

Does the iPhone display turn on when the iPhone is asleep anan alarm sounds

My iPhone was asleep when its alarm sounded. It was in airplane mode (I didn't want someone calling me during the night). When the alarm sounded, I heard the alarm sound and the phone vibrate, but the display itself was still off; I had to press the on/off/sleep button to see it.
Is that as expected?

It's weird -- I set an alarm, put the phone to sleep, and this time the display did turn on when the alarm sounded. Hmm...
