Alert tone for messages

I was wondering if there was a way to make messages vibrate instead of a tone. When I click on 'none' it doesn't do anything but I don't want the alert tone... It's annoying when I'm at work... Help please!!!!

You really should read over the manual. But the quickest way to do this is go to settings, sounds. You can change the message tone to silent and vibrate.

  • Why mp3 songs can't make it as alert tones for tex...

    Hey Nokia, why is your lumia phones can't put mp3 songs as alert tones for text messages? This is a big problem on your lumia phones because we missed a lot of text messages because your built in alert tones is not enough to catch our attention when we have a incoming text messages especially in a noisy environment. All the other brands of smartphones including the dumbphones are capable of having mp3 songs as alert tones for text messeges. Please do something about this.

  • Can I set individual alerts (tones) for each calendar events/ reminders

    Can I set individual alerts (tones) for each calendar events/ reminders

    Thanks On my phone, these are the options under Menu>Settings & Tools>Sound Settings>Alert Sounds: 1. TXT Message 2. Multimedia Message 3. Voicemail 4. Emergency Tone  5. Missed Call . And under Service Alerts: 1. ERI 2. Minute Beep 3. Call Connect 4. Charge Complete 5. Software Update. So nothing there for the calendar. And options from the calendar that I can see are Add (here you can change the tone for one event or recurring event, but not set a default tone for the event alarm), View (gives you the options of viewing an existing event in more detail, adding a new one, and the same choices from the Options list on the first screen where you are viewing the entire month), and Options (1. lets you view weekly/monthly,  2. Go To Today  3. Go To Date   4. Search   5. Erase All   6. Erase All Old   7. Send.  So as far as I can see, there's no way to do it. I have been through all the Settings and Tools menus... and the Events menu. But...I have just discovered that if I delete ALL my alarms and change the Ringtone for the first alarm I set, that ringtone becomes the default ringtone. I will try deleting ALL my events and starting fresh with a new tone and see if that works!

  • Custom ALERT TONE for iphone need HELP please.

    I understand how to create a custom TONE as an M4R file and import into itunes into the TONES library.
    When i sync my TONES to my iPhone, it lists as a RING tone.
    My custom ring tones, which are approximately 10 sec long work just fine when set as my RING tone for incoming calls.
    HOWEVER ....
    What i am DESPERATELY trying to do is create a custom ALERT tone and have it LIST as an ALERT tone in my phone and NOT a ring tone. Seems custom tones do not work for sms alerts.
    I searched EVERYWHERE and can not seem to find an answer. I realize apple wants us all to BUY alert tones, but i should be able to create my own too no?
    I created some custom alert tones, approximately 1 sec long each. Converted them to M4R files and sync'd them to my phone.
    In my phone they appear under the RING TONES list and not ALERT TONES.
    Maybe this dosent matter, however, when i try to set my TEXT ALERT SOUND to one of my custom ALERT tones, they do NOT work. My text messages come in without playing the sound.
    Can ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME figure out how to properly create a TONE as an ALERT TONE for my iphone?
    HUGE THANKS to ANYONE that can help.

    I've never been able to assign custom tones under alerts.  It doesn't matter though as you can assign ringtones as alerts as of iOS 5 I believe.  I had a similar issue with silent alerts, sometimes they would play, other times theywouldn't, but they would always play when selecting them under settings.  Resetting all settings (not content) has so far fixed that issue for me.  Try resetting your settings after you've synced your tones.

  • Is there a way to change the alert tone for the find my iphone app?

    Is there a way to change the alert tone for the find my iphone app? The one they use from the factory is terrible! I tried it out and could hardly hear it from 5 feet away!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately, so far as I am aware you cannot change this tone. I must admit I don't fully understand your problem, I've tried it myself and can hear it from some distance away.

  • Can i have different alert tones for Multiple email accounts?

    Would like to have different alert tones for each email account. Is there a way to accomplish it?

        Hi there, DawgFan1980!
    I understand the purpose of the different notification sounds. The iPhone only allows 1 tone for e-mail accounts. At this time, this cannot be changed.

    Is there an solution?

    Did you mean that you're getting tone for Messages/email in your H700C bluetooth headset? I Blackberry use HS-655+ Wireless Headset which don't give me such prompts through my headset.

    Hey all.
    My Dad's just got a BlackBerry & would like to have a different tone for his message alert and phonecalls.
    Is this possible?
    If so...how do we do it?
    Thanks in advance.
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Oh yes... your alerts, ringtones and notifications are very customizable.
    1. Select the Profiles icon
    2. A box will appear where you can quick select between Loud, Vibrate, Quiet, Normal, Phone Only, and Off. If you wish to quick change the device profiles then select the one you want and exit out.
    3. If you want to edit the tones assigned to the device applications then select the last option, Advanced
    (some older models and OS 4.1 and below will not have the "Advanced" step--if Advanced is not present go directly to Step 4 below).
    4. Select the profile you wish to edit. (Loud, Vibrate, Quiet, Normal (default), Phone Only, Off)
    Note: on the 8100, 8800, and 8300 models: Do not click the trackball. Instead, click the menu key to the left of the trackball).
    Note: The profile that is in use will say: (Active)
    5. You will now see a list of all applications that can have a tone assigned (Browser, Calendar, Level 1 Messages, Messages ([email protected]), Messenger, MMS, Phone, SMS, Task ect..)
    6. Select the application you wish to edit the tone / notification for
    7. You can now edit Out of Holster and In Holster tones/ notifications.

  • Mails/Alerts-triggered for messages stuck in queues and failed in moni

    Hi,
    I have two doubts.
    1) Messages are getting stuck in smq2 of my ECC and PI system. I have to manually push them. Is there any mechanism in which we can get alerts/mails when messages get stuck in queues.
    I have already gone through the blog /people/santhosh.kumarv/blog/2009/05/19/sap-xipi-alerts-for-queue-errors and I have implemented it in ECC system. But no mails were generated.
    2)Is there any method in which I can get alerts/mails when a message fails in sxmb_moni of ECC system?
    Thanks and regards,
    Siji

    Hi Sanjeev,
    I made a report with the following code in it and executed it. So I think that should work even if the job for it is not scheduled. There were messages stuck in queue. But no alert was generated. I had also created alert category in ECC.
    Thanks and regards,
    Siji

  • Iphone5 plays wrong alert tone for facebook notifications.

    It continues to play the "tri-tone" alert tone, even after I've changed it under Settings<Sounds<Facebook Post.  How do I fix this?

    First, if you want to clean your Mac, get rid of "CleanMyMac."
    I don't know what's causing your problem, so I can only offer an experimental solution. The effects are easily undone if it doesn't work. The real cause may be a bug or something external to your computer.
    Back up all data.
    Close the System Preferences window if it's open.
    Step 1
    Triple-click the line below to select it:
    ~/Library/Social
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
    Services ▹ Open
    from the contextual menu. A folder named "Social" should open. Move that folder to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Log out, log back in, and test. If there's no change, put the folder you moved back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Go on to the next step. Otherwise, delete the folder you moved.
    Step 2
    Proceed as in step 1, but with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Accounts
    You'll need to recreate your settings for Facebook, Twitter, and other social networks, as applicable.

  • TS2755 No alert tone when messages are received

    The alert tone is no longer sounding when a SMS or iMessage is received. Is there something I can do?

    Hi Gelis,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Try these troubleshooting steps if you are not hearing alert sounds on your iPhone 5:
    Verify that the volume is set to a level you would normally be able to hear.
    Ensure that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack or the dock connector.
    If the iPhone is in a protective case, make sure that the speaker port isn't blocked by the case.
    Make sure that the speaker and dock port aren't clogged with debris. If necessary, clean it with a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush. Carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    If an audio issue occurs when using a specific application, try testing other applications to see if the issue persists.
    If the iPhone is paired with a Bluetooth headset or car kit:
    Try turning off Bluetooth.
    If you experience difficulties with the Bluetooth feature, follow these troubleshooting steps.
    Restart the iPhone.
    If restarting doesn't fix the issue, ensure that your iPhone is updated to the latest version of iOS.
    If the issue is not resolved after restoring the iPhone software, please contact Apple Support.

  • Iphone 5 plays wrong alert tone for facebook notifications.

    It continues to play the "tri-tone" alert sounds, even after I've changed it under Settings<Sounds<Facebook Post.  How do I fix this?

    I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I have an iPhone 4S with iOS 6.1.3, so it is not just the iPhone 5. It has been this way for over a year, which would include several iOS versions. I can try the vehicle question you have later. I don't have access to the vehicle right now.
    I'm not sure if any of the web based streaming apps will play over Bluetooth in a vehicle. Since this is a sound app, I'm not sure it Bluetooth supports that, but it would take someone other than me to test that, since I don't stream music that way. I do use Bluetooth on occasion to play my iTunes music in the vehicle and that works just fine. The restriction for text tones may be based in the ability of the Bluetooth stack to support it, if the device does not support the texting portion of Bluetooth.
    If you believe this is something Apple needs to be aware of, then you need to let them know this. This can only be done via the feedback page at www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.
    EDIT: Here are the appropriate support documents about Bluetooth. One is about what profiles the iPhone supports, and the other is about Bluetooth FAQs. It could be also that the vehicle does not support the latest Bluetooth profiles. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3647 http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3887

  • Alert monitor for messages in error status

    Hi, it is possible to configure de Xi Alert Monitor to show in the message body the error that shows the message monitoring?
    In the SOAP header when there is an error y can see a tag "error" and it shows this info (for example):
    - <SAP:Error xmlns:SAP="http://sap.com/xi/XI/Message/30" xmlns:SOAP="http://schemas.xmlsoap.org/soap/envelope/" SOAP:mustUnderstand="1">
      <SAP:Category>XIServer</SAP:Category>
      <SAP:Code area="MAPPING">STARTUP_EXCEPTION</SAP:Code>
      <SAP:P1>com.sap.aii.utilxi.prop.api.PropertiesException</SAP:P1>
      <SAP:P2>Unable to read configuration data (ExchangeProfil~</SAP:P2>
      <SAP:P3 />
      <SAP:P4 />
      <SAP:AdditionalText />
      <SAP:ApplicationFaultMessage namespace="" />
      <SAP:Stack>Error occurred while starting the Java application &quot;IntegrationServices&quot;; restart the application</SAP:Stack>
      <SAP:Retry>M</SAP:Retry>
      </SAP:Error>
    It is a way to show any of this information in the message body that sends the Alert monitor?
    Regards.
    Mariano.

    Hi,
    you will not be able to get the entire msg payload of SXMB_MONI in alert.
    But you can create a alert category and in its Long text you can have variables for Error Category and Error Text. So you will get alert mails with Error category and Error Text.
