Have you tried resetting your device by pressing and holding the Home button and power button until the silver apple appears?

My alarms aren't going off

AT ALL.
Today was the third time it's happened. And I checked those alarms before I went to bed. They were ON, they were SET for the right times, and they were SET to play the right playlists.
But they didn't go off, and I ended up an hour late for work!
I set three alarms: 7.00am, 7.30am, and 7.45am. I need to set three alarms because I am an extremely deep sleeper, and after I turn off an alarm, I sometimes just nod off again. My iPod, connected to a Bose SoundDock, is the only thing in my home short of my home theater system capable of waking me up through sheer volume.
I have a 30GB black iPod Video, BTW.

Does the bose dock turns on by itself when the ipod turns on?
Or do you have to manually turn on the bose speakers for it to work?
If it automatically turns on the bose speakers when the ipod is turned on, then i have the solution. I have the logitech mm50, which turns on when I turn on the ipod.
All you have to do is make an extra clock in your ipod... go to extra > clock > new clock...
so the trick is this, for every time you want it to turn on, make 2 clocks... set the 1st alarm 1 minute earlier... example... you want to wake up at 7.00... make the 1st alarm to go off 6.59, and the second alarm 7.00... so the first alarm will turn on the speakers and the second alarm will turn on the music...
So if you want to set the alarm to 3 different time, then you need to make 6 clocks...
Hope this help

Alarm clock sometimes going off hour early.

I was under the impression that this alarm clock bug was only affecting people in other countries after daylight savings. However, it is happening to me in Chicago right now!
I noticed this yesterday when an alarm I use everyday, woke me up an hour early. it just did the same thing again today. I tried to "trick" it by setting an alarm this morning for an hour later, but strangly it went of at the time I actually set it for.
Anyone else having this problem in the USA?

Yes, since last weekend, an alarm is now going off an hour early every day. Hope you get an answer.

My iPod touch 3rd generation won't play on my iPod dock when the alarm I set goes off. It plays normally and charges, but it won't work with the alarm. Could it be the iPod dock or my iPod?

My iPod touch just recently started doing this: I plug it in to my Sony iPod dock/alarm clock/radio. It charges fine and plays music fine, but when I set the alarm for it to go off, it doesn't go off. I can see that the dock is indicating that the alarm is going off, but the iPod isn't playing music. Could it be my iPod or the dock?
Also, there were 2 times when I plugged in my iPod to charge (once with a wall charger and once with the dock) and it said that it was fully charged. But it wasn't fully charged. I bought one of those iPod wall chargers from Target. It's not an Apple charger, but it is for iPods. Could it be that?
I'm going to try to reset my iPod and see if that helps any.

I have contacted apple support and Bose support. When I have heard back will post for everyone. I do encourage everyone to contact both companies until we get an answer to hopefully solve this issue. The more people who contact them about the issue, maybe the better chance they will help fix the issue.

No alarm set, but goes off at 7am on random days.

Hi all.
After updating to ios6 the alarm on my 4s has started going off at 7am on random days. It can be 3 or 4 days in a row, or nothing for a week, but it's always at 7am.
When it goes off there is nothing appearing in the lock or home screens to let me switch it off, and I have to switch the phone off completely.
I have alarms set for 7.20 and 7.30, which go off as normal.
There is nothing in my calendar for the days it goes off.
It's driving me and my wife insane!
Any help greatly appreciated.

I suspect it's supernatural.

HT201401 I set the alarm and it goes off without any sound! What happened? I can't figure it out.

My iphone alarm goes off but without any sound, how do I fix this?

Looks like there might be a little circular door on the back that you screw off to get access to the button battery

My iPhone alarm is not going off.

Ok, so... Several mornings in a row my iPhone alarm has behaved very strangely. If I set it for 7:30, with the "crickets" sound, both occasions I've woken up at 8:00, a half hour late. When I wake up, there are no crickets sounding. Strangely, when I look at my phone there is the interface on the screen that offers to allow me to "Snooze". That, to me, indicates that the alarm has triggered. I just don't get the sound.
I've used the crickets sound for at least a year now. My traditional experience has been that when the crickets start chirping, the generally chirp forever until I tell them to stop. I've even come home to them chirping because I forgot an alarm I set. So... what's up?
Also, no... the headphones are not it. And, the silent toggle is not on (not that it should matter - the alarm goes off even with silent on).

Also I should mention that Apple said it is a hardware issue, but a software issue.

3g iPhone alarms not working - going off at odd times, despite turning off/on and reset...

Hello, My ancient - i.e. more than one year old - 3g iPhone has been affected - again - by Britain fiddling about with timezones. Having had all the weekly set alarms go off at 3am etc and other annoying times, I removed all 16 alarms, turned the 3G off, turned it on again, looked at the time zone, and reset that, just for fun (London, England) and then input all the alarms again... still going off at the wrong time. Any ideas? Thank you.

Oh apologies, I am currently in the United Arab Emirates and my carrier is Etisalat. I have called them and they gave me the reset network and the airplane mode fixes which i have tried multiple times and have not worked

My alarm isn't going off in iOS 6. Anybody else? Any fix?

I have had at least 2 occurances where my alarm has failed to go off in the morning. Anybody else have this problem?

You have posted to the iTunes Match forum, which your question does not appear to pertain to. You'll have better luck posting to either the Using iPhone or Using iPad forum.

Alarm is not going off every morning

I have set my alarm and it doesn't go off in the morning...HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!

I have had this same problem, and believe I have your solution (at least it works for me!):
1) Make sure your alarm is set to repeat, ie: MTWTF or whatever days you want the alarm to run.
2) Click on "Menu", "Settings", and make sure your "Alarm in silent mode" is checked and alarm volume is set all the way to the right.
3) If your alarm is still not working, exit the alarm function, and go to standard "Settings", "Sound and Display", "Ringer Volume". Make sure ringer volume is all the way to the right.
4) Set your secondary alarm for 5 minutes from now to test.
I have found that in using my phone during the day, my fingers hit the up and down volume buttons on the side and turn the volume down too low for me to hear while I'm asleep. I check every night!
Hope this helps!

Alarm clock that goes off to music on your iTouch?

Is there an application that can do that?

i believe andy's right, it isn't possible due to the software at the moment.
and yes, BE PATIENT. world-wide user forums. people have to sleep/work/live, we don't sit here all day every day (and night) waiting for your post. people who have the answer to your solution might not happen to see your post within minutes. hey, maybe not within hours.

ICal event alarms aren't loud enough (and not long enough)...

I'm going to be getting my first smartphone very soon and am trying to decide which to get. I have an iMac, so I heavily favor the iPhone. But, I've run into a potential problem with Events in iCal:
I want to get an iPhone, use iCal for my schedule, and use MobileMe to keep everything synced. Until now, I've only used the calendar features in regular phones. I've been testing iCal on my Mac, and it clearly will be easier to program events into it.
My problem is iCal's audible alarm. I've been testing it by having it sound on my iMac (since I don't yet have an iPhone), and it seems you can only have a brief audible alarm sound (for instance, the "Glass" or "Basso" sound option with the "Message with Sound" option). I'm used to the calendars on regular cell phones, which have a loud alarm that repeats (like a cell phone ringer). Is there something I can do in iCal to make its alarm louder and repetitive on an iPhone?
I have a friend who has a droid phone and used the Google calendar. He says there is a setting on his phone (separate from the settings in Google's calendar) that lets him choose any ringer or .mp3 as the audible alarm for alerts from the Google calendar.
If I can't get a loud, repetitive alarm to sound on my iPhone with my iCal events, then it's really not going to work for me. The alarm will be going off on my iPhone and I will never hear it.
I know this question may be basic, but I really, really need an answer before I proceed (and I can't find the answer online). Thank you!

That is very surprising. Short of someone being able to recommend an app or other work around for this, the lack of such an audible alarm will rule the iPhone out for me. And I've waited a very long time for it to come to my carrier, so that is very disappointing.
It's really shocking to me that the designers wouldn't have started out by saying we need to have this smartphone incorporate every standard feature of previous regular phones. I had really not even thought that this could be a problem. I just stumbled on it and am astonished at the lack of a user ability to customize the alarm feature to a suitable sound.

Why are my alarms for my ical not going off

I have alarms set to go off for several ical events. I have tried many files to be the alarm form my itunes, but im not sure why they are not working, and my daily alarm clock is not going off. I have tried several different times also

I just spoke to a representitive from Apple and after researching the issue with a supervisor, I learned that once you activate iTunes Match, you lose the ability to have your songs go into a "Purchased" playlist/folder automatically on your phone. They still go to a "Purchased" folder on your computer, however on the phone, they go into the general library after you buy them. You have to individually search for the songs afterwards and add them to a playlist of your choice for easy access later. The rep was uncertain if this was something that would be fixed in the future. I hope they do fix it.

'Get info' does not open after alarm goes off

Using iCal, before an alarm goes off, I'm able to 'get info'/'edit' the event, but after an alarm goes off, I'm unable to edit the event unless I quit and reopen the app. Any ideas why and how to resolve?

I posted this over a week ago. Does anyone have an idea how to rectify this. I can't be the only one having this problem!

New iPhone 4 doesn't always sound or vibrate when the alarm goes off

I use the alarm every morning. This morning, when I woke up two hours late, I looked at my iPhone and saw that the screen showed that the alarm was going off. But there was zero sound or vibration being produced which is what it usually does.
I immediately went into a game app that I know produces sound to make sure nothing was wrong with the speakers and it was fine.
This is the second time this has happened in two weeks. The first time was with a recurring alarm. This morning was with a one-time only alarm.
Anyone know why this is happening and how I can fix it?
Thanks.

STILL NOT **&&!*** WORKING, APPLE.
how hard can this be?
"It just works!" No. It doesn't.

Alarms aren't going Off!!! WHY
