Calendar alert sonud - Too short and too weak

I just bought a new iPhone 4.
I transfered all my appointments.
I am missing my appointments because I do not hear the very short, low sound alert from my iPhone.
What can I do?
Thanks
Ron

Welcome to the discussions,
if your volume settings are set to max and you are using the reminder function prior to your appointment already, there is not much you can do.
Maybe check the App Store for some "To Do" apps which might provide a louder signal.
And, of course, tell Apple that you want a louder alarm sound for your events: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

How can I remove calendar alerts from my iPhone?

My iPhone 4 (iOS 6) seems to be adding calendar alerts on its own and I cannot for the life of me figure out how to remove them. I use iCal on my Macbook Pro (running Mountain Lion 10.8.2) to sync my calendar events. None of my events on iCal have alerts set to them and I have disabled all alerts in my iCal preferences. Yet, for some reason, when I look at a calendar event on my iPhone, an alert is set for it.
How do I remove these properly? I do not simply want to silence these alerts, but figure out how they got there in the first place and remove them completely. For comparison's sake, I've included an image of the event from iCal and the event from my iPhone.

Hi pjdemeo,
I understand you want to delete all of the photos from your iPhone. As a precaution, I would suggest importing the photos and videos from your iPhone into your computer. This will give you a backup for the images, and after import you will be asked if you want to delete the photos.
Import photos and videos from your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch to your Mac or Windows PC - Apple Support
https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201302
The iPhone User Guide has instructions for deleting photos directly from the device:
Organize photos and videos - iPhone
http://help.apple.com/iphone/8/#/iphf14943e
Delete a photo or video from Photos. Tap the Photos tab, tap the photo or video, tap , then tap Delete Photo or Delete Video. Deleted photos and videos are kept in the Recently Deleted album on iPhone, with a badge showing the remaining days until the item is permanently removed from iPhone. To delete the photo or video permanently before the days expire, tap the item, tap Delete, then tap Delete Photo or Delete Video. If you use iCloud Photo Library beta, deleted photos and videos are permanently removed from all iOS 8.1 devices that use iCloud Photo Library beta with the same Apple ID.
Cheers,

Hello Susan.
It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and themes and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
If the problem is not disappears when all add-ons are disabled, please tell me, so we can work from there.

Exchange 2010 Room Calendar Permissions are too permissive when Default is set to None.

Help! Room Calendar permissions are too permissive when Default is set to None.
We are a brand new Exchange 2010 shop, and have setup several conference rooms. Many of them are restricted to specific groups to book via In-Policy Requests using Resource Booking Attendant. The Room Calendar permissions for most
rooms shows only two options for the Default access: None and Full Details. Default is set to None, yet if someone opens the room calendar in Outlook (& they are not part of the In-Policy restrictions) they are able to see the full meeting details
(even open the meeting for full details). How is this possible when by default they should not have any access as it is set to None? Some rooms would not be a problem for clients to see the details, but some rooms like Executive rooms need to be
locked down so that others cannot see the room details - None.
I also found this, although it did not make a difference. If I create an Outlook profile for the room and login as the room calendar in Outlook, go to File, Options, Calendar, Resource Scheduling, Set Permissions I get different default options:
None, "Free/Busy time", "Free/Busy time, subject, location" and Full Details. Why do I have more options in this view rather than the Room Calendar Permissions? I looked at two rooms and both Default options were set to "Free/Busy
time", so I changed these settings to None. Still the clients can view the full room calendar details. What are we missing to get the room calendar locked down so it is not displaying details to everyone?

Only the default groups and Exchange Admins have Full Access to these items, so that is not the issue.
-MailboxFolderPermission 1RP07AWest:\Calendar cmdlet and it shows the same access I see when I open the calendar in Outlook and view the Permissions as shown below - Default is set to None.
As I stated in my last reply the only thing that finally forced it to be blocked is changing the Resource Scheduling permissions under Options > Calendar for that room mailbox. If I have to do that for each room calendar, it's going to
take considerable time to change each one. Is there a cmdlet to allow me to access and change that setting as well?

Remote's or new iMac's magnet too weak

In my new iMac either its magnet to hold the remote or the magnet in the remote is too weak. The remote does not stick to the computer like it did with the white iMacs. How come? Is this a case for warranty maybe?

Heyy,
No, the new iMac's actually don't have the magnet on the right side to hold the Apple Remote.
The only magnets there are is around the screen (under the black border(, and they are there to hold the glass there.

Hey shahzebfrompak,
There are two articles that go over troubleshooting both cellular data connection and Wi-Fi network connections. I would first go over the cellular troubleshooting article:
iPhone: Troubleshooting a cellular data connection
http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3780
If that doesn't resolve the issue, move on to the Wi-Fi article:
iOS: Troubleshooting Wi-Fi networks and connections

Take care,

I have upgraded to an Iphone 6 and am at IOS 8.2. My calendar alerts no longer show up as notifications on my phone. I have gone into settings and double checked that notifications for calendar was on and it is. Any ideas on a fix?

I have iPhone 4s but the same problem with calendar on 8.2 iOS - no sound, no notification appears - but everything is switched on.

My 4s has stopped giving me calendar alert sounds and I have rebooted the phone several times and I also have restored from a current backup. HELP!!!!!

I have done each in succession. First power down and then hold both power and home button to reboot. No success the multiple times I have done it.

Disable calendar alerts and it keeps alerting

Settings--->Sounds--->Calendar Alerts - set to OFF
It just keeps right on alerting.
This is a new problem. It's never happened before today that I can remember. Most of the time the phone is in another room but today, I'm traveling and it's by the nightstand as my alarm clock.

When in doubt, try the age-old-proven remedy of resetting the iPhone. Press and hold both the sleep button on the top and the home button. Usually a reset will rectify most situations.

Birthday calendar alerts ?

I wonder if I'm the only iCal user in this world who tends to forget birthdays. At least I seem to be the only one who keeps asking Apple for adding an alert feature to Birthday Calendars. For what other reason would they not care about this feature request?
Anyway, without alerts, iCal is the perfect tool for forgetting birthdays - which may have serious consequences, both in your private and in your professional life. You DID note your girlfriend's or your CEO's birthday, so you rely on iCal and on your looking at iCal in time. Then you do so - and there you are, buying apology cards because you've missed that birthday.
I have already tried a Birthday Widget, but it was just as crappy as it looked: It didn't update its "2 days left until Valentina's birthday" message - and of course, I missed her birthday, too.
Isn't there a decent little utility, workaround, crack or hack to get me birthday alerts? (...without messing around in Address Book, doing scripts to iport whole new calendars etc.)
Or can I hack into that birthday calendar to make it read-and-write & assign alerts manually?
Thanks a lot for a hint!
Peter

Hi Peter,
The script checks for the calendar, then checks for the birthdays already entered. New birthdays are added when the script is run. The calendar is not deleted.
You would need to run the script when you want the birthdays added to iCal.
I agree that Apple should have added alarms to their birthday calendar - but they haven't. Not a very "Macintosh way" in my opinion, but no-one is perfect

Can Calendar Alerts Be Changed?

Hi,
I'm a very happy iPhone user, in fact it is probably the best little device I have ever owned. Apart from the main features it has to offer, alot of the enjoyment I get from it is due to the quirky sounds & tones you can choose for a new SMS, and the sent mail/new mail noises that come with the phone.
All of these are very subtle and refined, apart from that is the Calendar events reminder alert. In comparison this is clunky and very 'non-Apple' in many ways, if that makes any sense!!!
I have searched high and low but can't find any way of selecting your own Calendar alert tone, which probably means that its not an option. Does anyone know or have found out a way if it is possible to change it???
I know its the most minor of quibbles but any help/ideas would be appreciated!
Many thanks in advance,
Chris.

I agree with Fopster. I too have submitted feedback on this issue per your link. Not everyone has a job in a quiet office where they can hear the cute little alerts. Personally, I need something LOUD and Vibrating, that will get my attention when in noisy environments. The ATT Tilt has the best calendar alert I can find.
Thanks,
Dave

Can I have calendar alerts for only one calendar with multiple calendars?

My wife has multiple calendars on her iPhone (mine and hers), but she would like to receive alerts/notifications only for the items on her calendar. Is this possible? (This seems to be the opposite problem from what this person experienced: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8479193.)
We sync with Outlook on a PC via iTunes.

I have the very same problem. In our company, we have shared CalDAV calendars for every employee. I receive and sync those to my Mac and to my iPhone/iPod Touch; on both platforms I only want alerts for my personal appointments, and not to get alerted when my colleagues have a business lunch.
Interestingly, in iCal on Mac OS X, there is an option "Ignore Alarms" for every single shared calendar, and I can cherry-pick those that I want to get alerted about. This is exactly the behavior I want on the iPhone, too, which regrettably is not possible (yet?).
The other option would be to forbid alarms in shared calendars for everybody, which is not feasible, too, because people might want to get alarms without having to duplicate the date to some personal calendar first.
So if anyone has a practical solution to this problem, I'd be happy to hear about it. Thanks!

Can't Silence Calendar Alerts

I can't get alerts in iCal to silence. I've turned to "off" the "Calendar Alerts" option in the "Sounds" settings, but to no avail. I use a lot of alerts in iCal on my notebook, which is fine when I'm using my notebook, but I'd rather not have alerts sounding on my iPhone (most of the time). I used to think that only those iCal events that were synced from my notebook were the ones that would sound, but tests show that events created on my iPhone are also oblivious to the Calendar Alerts/Off setting. Searching this forum reveals that this has been a problem since a posting in late July, but 1.1.1 didn't fix it. Does anyone know how to make this feature work? Thanks. (Oh, and if the "Calendar Alerts" setting doesn't turn off calendar alerts, what does it do?)

Yes, this is driving me crazy. And it's only recent, for me. In other words, it had always vibrated as a calendar alert; I could live with that. Now it's vibrating and chirping too, even though sounds are set to OFF. I've submitted a bug report and encourage everyone to. And if anyone has figured out how to disable this, please let me know. iPhones should be seen and not heard, unless I say otherwise

Calendar alerts not loud enough

My iphone5 alerts are way too soft, and I can't hear them. The ringer is set to max, but I can't figure out how to set the calendar alerts to high. When I do a hard reset it works for a while (less than a day) but then goes way down in volume. I need a good, loud alert for appointments. I've set it to vibrate, but it's not always in a pocket so I can feel it. Please help me. I'm missing appointments because of this. I think it started after the last iOS update, but it seems more recent than that.

You may want to look into using another sound for the tone, or possibly another app to use for reminders. I don't know of another way to make it any louder.
