Any way to adjust Calendar alarm sound?

Is there any way to adjust the Calendar alarm sound from it's default "Time Passing" setting? Would prefer one of the other ones, but can't see where to change it...

After going to the Apple store I found out that it is not possible even though the manual says it is.
I don't know if they inteded to have this feature and "forgot"..lol...or if they never intended it and just copied and pasted wrong.
It's my biggest peeve with the itouch....hoping they fix it soon...I can't hear the stoopid thing. I also want it to keep sounding the alarm--like it does on the alarm clock so I can make sure I'm actually reminded.

  • Is there any way to adjust the equalizer on my macbook pro?

    I just got a brand new macbook pro, and was really dissapointed with the audio coming out of the speakers.  My last laptop was also a macbook pro from three years ago, and that one had way better speakers.  I'm hearing way too much high mids, and very little bass coming out of the speakers on this one, and it's really really noticeable.  I know the speakers on these aren't supposed to be amazing, but the huge difference from the last generation of macbook pros makes me wonder if there's just something wrong with my new computer... Does anyone know if there's any way to adjust this, or can anyone at least confirm that the speakers are just way worse than the last generation?

    All the laptops have poor sound, not surprising really considering the half inch speakers driven by less tha 2W, spend any amount you like on an external pair, even the cheapest will outperform the internals.

  • Is there any way to sort the alarms differently in the Clock app? I have alarms for multiple days during the week, all of which overlap each other. It makes no sense to me that the alarms sort by time and not day. Thanks!

    No, there is no way to change the sort order.

  • Just purchased MBP (frm Apple) TrackPad much too sensitive! Any way to adjust?

    Any way to adjust track pad sensitivity?

    By too sensitive I mean:
    Trackpad seems to take on a life of it's own particularly when deleting:
    just hovering the cursor over the delete icon results in activating delete.
    That's just one example - but the most dramatic and easiest to explain.
    More if you need 'em.

  • I have a ringtone that works great on my computer but the volume is very soft on the phone.  I have adjusted the volume on the phone but the ringtone volume is still too low.  Is there any way to adjust the volume of a ringtone?

    I have managed to sync a ringtone to my ne i phone 5C but the volume is way too soft.
    The sound is great on my computer but hard to hear at all on the phone.  I have tried turning up the volume button on the phone but it doesn' do anything for the ringtone.  Any ideas on how to solve this problem.  The ringtone is "calypso blackberry" and I am not able to locate it in the Apple store ringtones.  This should be so simple and it is making me nuts.
    Help anyone please.
    Bob

    So you use an RCA cable going into what before it hits the MBP?
    EDIT: Also in System Preferences > Sound > Input > you can select the input & adjust the volume accordingly as long as it's plugged in.

  • Any way at all to STOP sounds coming through bluetooth?

    Whoever designed this should be strung up...
    Is there any way to STOP sounds coming through my bluetooth headset? It is so incredibly distracting when I'm on a call and the stupid calendar goes off, I hear an email come in, a text message, etc.
    I have an iPhone 4 and Plantronics Voyager Pro.
    I know one way is to turn on the mute switch on my iPhone, but I don't want to do that like 8 million times a day.
    I'd simply like to NOT hear everything ringing in my ear when I'm trying to have a simple conversation.
    Anyone?

    I'm assuming you have an A2DP compatible headset. If so, see if you can disable A2DP on the headset. You can do so on the Jawbone Icon, not sure about others.
    To my knowledge, there is no way to disable A2DP on the iphone itself.

  • How can I extend the calendar alarm sound on my iPhone?

    Before I got my iPhone I used my mobile phones (dumb, android, Symbian) to set an alarm with the calendar. I'm having a hard time properly doing so on my iPhone. My brain is lined with teflon and I forget a lot of stuff - up until now my mobile phones have been vital in remedying this.
    Say that I have an important appointment at 14:00 two weeks from now, I punch it in the calendar on my iPhone and let it alert me an hour before the event. When the time comes my iPhone lets out a measly "beep" that no one hears and I miss the appointment - I can go entire work days without looking at my phone (and phone usage is strongly discouraged at my workplace) so this is really a big problem for me. So far I've missed a couple of important meetings, left important stuff undone and forgot to pick my kid up from kindergarten (my wife usually does, but there are those rare, calendar reminder occasions when I have to)!
    On all the other phones I've owned I'd be able to set the calendar alarm so that it would go on and on and on until I reacted, thus minimizing the odds of me missing the alarm. I have no idea how to make my iPhone do this.
    Sure there are workarounds like making the calendar alarm go off a day before to remind me to create an actual alarm clock alarm for the day after but that really seems to be an uneccesary hazzle and a major design flaw - also, what if I'm really busy when the early reminder goes off and I forget to set the alarm? Or perhaps I should attempt to tame myself to constantly check my iPhone for possible alerts? I really love my iPhone, but if it becomes a handicap i'll throw it away in a heartbeat.

    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.

  • (IOS 7) Any way to show calendar list view in notification center instead of day view?

    I updated to IOS 7 and I hoped to be able to check my schedule for the next day from the lock screen. Unfortunately at 1 AM the next few hours in the Calendar Day View in Notification Center was empty. The Today Summary just tells me when the first appointment is the next morning but not much else. Is there any way to change the calendar day view to the list view of appointments? Representing the relative times of the appointments with empty space seems like a waste. Especially when the Calendar Day View is 100% empty space and my appointments are just out of view in the wee hours of the morning.
    Thanks,
    Jerrill

    My biggest regret in updating to IOS 7 is the calendar. I often to tap from date to date and wish to see in LIST view my events... not in a today view as mentioned by the various posts above. As someone else noted, events are hiding below the screen view and one must scroll around to see if there are other events scheduled. I'm so afraid I'm going to miss something and make a committment in error. A list view is much more desired and efficient.
    Change for the sake of change...why Apple why?
    I have sent mass texts and Face Book messages to friends telling them not to upgrade to IOS 7 because of the calendar disaster and variouse other changes. Such as why is the font everywhere so small and light? One needs a magnifying glass to see everything that could be seen so clearly before. I've given friends a "tour" of IOS 7 on my iPhone and after seeing it many have thanked me and opted not to upgrade. I only wish I could have been saved.  

  • Recently changed my email provider.  However, Calendar continues to try to send alerts to my old email provider.  I have not found any way to tell Calendar to use the correct email address.  I have chained iCloud, AppleID, and local email settings.

    Sorry for the long title - I thought I had to explain my entire problem there ...
    I recently switched ISPs, so now I have a new email address.  I've updated mail, can send and receive successfully, recreated my iCloud account, and made sure my Contacts entry was correct. But Calendar's alert function stubbornly tries to send email to my old email address.  I haven't found any way to change the list of email addresses that Calendar uses.  This is the Calendar desktop app, not iCal.  Any tips would be appreciated. 

    So what was the solution. I have a similar problem on all of my devices now

  • Any way to turn off SHUTTER SOUND on the iPhone 4 camera???

    Is there any way possible to turn off the shutter sound on iPhone 4 without affecting the other sounds?

    Turning the switch on the side to Silent works for me. However, there may be national laws involved. In some places it is required that cameras make a sound when a photo is taken. Your profile doesn't say where you are, but this might be an issue.

  • Is there any way to turn off keypad sounds when making a phone call?

    I am a new user to iphone....is there any way to turn off sounds of keypad when making a manual phone call of someone not in address book?
    Thanks

    If I understand the question correctly, it is not about turning off keyboard clicks, it's about silencing the beeps made when manually keying in a  phone number. With keyboard clicks turned off, the beeps still sound when keying in a phone number. If I'm reading the iPhone User Guide correctly, it explains how to turn off keyboard clicks but not how to silence the   beeps when keying in a phone number. The only way I have found to silence the beeps is to put the phone into silent mode.

  • Any way to mute start up sound

    Is there any way to mute the star up sound?
    Thanks

    You can select the Mute box in System Preferences > Sound but be aware, that "chord" you hear when you start your Mac means the Mac has passed it's diagnotists tests.
    If you mute sound so you can't hear that when you startup your Mac, you won't know when the disk may need repairing until it's too late. Much better off living with the startup sound.

  • Is there any way to delete calendars by years without deleting the entire calendar?

    I have too many years in my iCal application.  Is there any way I can have it just show the past 5 years? Or can I delete years before 2008, for example? I have made a backup of my iCal file so I'm ready for that great solution from the community!
    I see other posts in the community about deleting data but they are from 2005 and 2007 and don't apply to Lion OS and this newest version of iCal - or at least I can't find the features they're referring to to help delete old data.

    Hi,
    In iCal's calendar list make sure only the calendars you want to delete from are checked.
    In iCal's search field put a single quote ('). The search result showing all events will appear.
    Make sure the search results are sorted by date.
    Click the first event you want deleted.
    Scroll down and Shift-Click the last one.
    Press the delete button.
    I don't know whty the single quote is needed oin the search.
    Best wishes
    John M
