Can't get sound notification for emails

Hi. I've set up several email accounts in my Motorola Razr phone, and I've selected the check box for 'Email notifications' and selected a tone to use for each, but I can't receive a notification when I get an email. I send a test message from my computer and when I check the phone, the email is there but I know only because I checked it, not because I got a tone. Also, I've tried the 'Mailbox check frequency' on 'Push' and then I tried '5 minutes' to see if that made any difference, but no change, still no tone to let me know I've received an email.

The phone rings when someone calls and you're receiving text notification sounds?  In other words, is it just the e-mail app that isn't alerting you?

  • HT3576 Can you get sound notifications for mail and iMessage with the new iPad. Under general sounds I have a sound selected for both of those. My volume is turned all the way up but I still don't get sound notifications with these apps. Suggestions?

    I have sound turned on under general> sounds. The volume is all the way up and I can hear it when i adjust it. However under notifications sound is not an option for mail or iMessage. Just badges and alerts. Both of which are on. I would really like to hear my notifications. Any suggestions.

    1. Double-click the Home button and swipe Task Bar to the right
    2. Check the volume and mute settings

  • Why can't I get sound notification for my email anymore?

    I am no longer able to get sound notification for send or receive email nor can I get sound notification for incoming phone calls.  What happened and is there a correction?

    Before doing anything else, is your ringer switch in silent mode?  I'd try toggling the switch a few times to make sure it's working.  The phone should vibrate when you move the switch from on to silent.  If it doesn't then the switch may be broken.
    Next make sure the volume for notifications is not off.  Check the Sound settings for this.  Changing the volume there should also cause your (phone) ringtone to play.  If it doesn't then there is something very wrong.
    The only other thing I can suggest if the above doesn't help is doing a hard reset of the phone.  Hold power and home buttons down until screen goes dark and Apple icon appears, then let go.
    If that doesn't work, then the only other thing you can try is doing a Backup and then a Restore in iTunes.  If that doesn't work, then there's a hardware problem.

  • Can you turn off notification for emails

    How can you turn off notification for email but leave it on for text?

  • How to set sound notification for email

    I cant find the setting for adding sound notifications for my email. The only setting is for preferred email, I want all my emails .  I do have it for messages, but not email

    Go to email......manage accounts........select which email account.....notification sound......select which sound you want........Done deal.  Also make sure you have email notifications in the status bar checked.  Have a nice day.

  • Can I get sound notification if SMS text is not sent

    iPhone. I send a message but with our bad signal it sometimes doesn't get sent. We get a 'whoosh' when an email is sent - can I get one for text messages so I know to try again if I don hear it? It sometimes takes up to a minute to go so I can't just wait and stare at the screen!

    You can run this code in the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer) to add a tooltip to the icon of each item in that list.
    You probably need to scroll the full list to make Firefox update all attributes and you need to rerun the code in the browser console via cursor Up and Enter to update all tooltips after having done a new download.
    If you run the code then you get a pop-up that shows some information of all selected items (Ctrl click multiple items).
    You can open the Browser Console (Firefox/Tools > Web Developer).
    Paste the JavaScript code in the command line and press the Enter key to run the code.

  • How can I get visual notification for mail

    Hello,
    As Lion gives us a new and better mail software with a sound I would like to enquire how it would be possible to have an additional visual notification when an email is received.
    Many thanks
    Yair

    Okay ... we've got Mountain Lion and we have Apple Mail for Mountain Lion.
    Now, back to my recollection for Apple Mail and plain ole Lion ... when I hit the "envelope" icon in Mail, or hit CMD-Shift-N, I heard my sound (Basso) and I saw the rotating cursor beside each of my accounts.
    But with Mountain Lion, I just hear the Basso sound, but no rotating cursor.
    Fine ... just please tell me what I can do to retrieve the rotating cursor visual indicator, or notification.
    Obviously, this is not a gigantic deal, just something I'm used to.
    Thanks,
    John Love

  • How can i disable sound notification on ROSA?

    My rosa has too many "unit not responding" alarms.
    i want to disable only sound notification for "unit not responding" on ROSA
    Sent from Cisco Technical Support iPhone App

    Hi Eun Jin-ki
    Do you want to disable sound notification for only "Unit not responding" messages? Or do you want to disable sound notification for any message. You can disable the sound notification for all messages or enable only for specific message levels via the menus option Messages/Options. You can also try the option "Repetitive Alarm Suppression" on this Message/Options page to suppress repetitive alarms over a configurable period. Of course, this will apply to both the sound and the pop-up notifications.

  • If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account, how can I setup individual notifications for each account. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work to be different than perso

    If I have two email accounts, one personal hotmail account and one MS Exchange work account on my iPhone 4s, How can I setup individual notifications for each account? Fore example, if I get a work email, I want to hear a DING, DING....If I get a personal email, I want to hear a BEEP, BEEP. Right now, any email from any account has the same notification. I want work incoming email notification to be different than personal incoming notification. The only semi-workaround I've seen is just disable any notification for the Hotmail account, so only work emails would notify. But then I don't know when I get a personal email. Even the lowely Blackberry Torch 9800 has this feature..not iPhone 4s??
    Thanks

    Sorry you get only one notification sound for all email accounts.  you can send a suggestion to apple here http://www.apple.com/feedback/

  • I have a new iPhone 5C, have the sounds alerts set up. But I'm not getting sound alerts for new voicemail, only the red circle on the screen.  How can I make the sound alert work?

    I have a new iPhone 5C, have the sounds alerts set up. But I'm not getting sound alerts for new voicemail, only the red circle on the screen.  How can I make the sound alert work?

    I have had this same problem for weeks now with my 4S.  I just got a new 5S after being extremely frustrated and the same thing - no sounds.  After searching posts all over, I couldn't find a solution. I just told my friend of the issue and he asked "Do you have the Do Not Distrub on?"  I didn't even know such a function existed.  Upon looking that was exactly the issue.
    To resolve, go to Settings> Do Not Disturb> Manual.  If it is green, turn it off.  You will now get phone calls and text alerts.
    This functionality is also on your quick access utility menu (slide up menu).  I assume this is how it was enabled on my phone.
    I will post on other sites since I searched for weeks for this solution and didn't see it anywhere.  Good luck!

    My problem is that after upgrade to IOS 6.1.3 my iphone not sounds! dont have sounds notifications for whatssap, FB, mails and can't listen music and talk with skype without headphones or speakers! only have vibrator and sound for one coming call!! what can i do!???? Thanks a lot for help me!!!!

    I have a nearly identical problem with my Ipad 3. Mine is the left channel. I've yet to find help, but have found a number of other posts on this and other forums discussing the issue. People have tried restore, reset etc. Also, cleaning the ports with compressed air or cotton swabs. It appears to be a software issue, but no one is sure.
    Along with the original poster, I'd appreciate any help.
    As far as the 'level 6' poster, if you're going to be rude, please don't bother. Hope it was just a bad day.

  • Can you get reoccurring alerts for text and email received?

    Can you get reoccurring alerts for text, email an voicemail received? I am too dumb for my smartphone.......I have looked on the forums and cannot find an answer.
    I just got my Droid Razr Maxx HD 2 weeks ago and so far I can only find that the "little" green LED light flashes when have a text, email, or voicemail. That light is pathetic..really I can barely see it?
    Is there a way to make an audible alert the reoccurrs?
    Thank you.

  • Why do I get three notifications for the same email?

    When I receive an email I get three notifications for it. I have no clue why...

    Yeah, it's just mail, and it's totally random, most of the times it's three notifications, and when I'm lucky it's just one i'll try the reboot - remove - add  algorithm

  • I have a 100 credit in my iTunes account and I am not able to log in to my account because my email is no longer active can a get a credit for amount i have in my account?

    I have a 100 credit in my iTunes account and I am not able to log in to my account because my email is no longer active, can a get a credit for amount i have in my account?

    Why can you not login into the account ? You should be able to if you remember the account's password, if you can't then you can get it reset e.g. by answering your account's security questions : http://iforgot.apple.com
    If you can't reset it via your security questions then contact Support in your country, they should be able to reset your password (and security questions) for you (after they've verified your id and that it's your account).
    Contacting Apple about account security : http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT5699
    If your country isn't on that page then try this form and explain and see what they reply with : https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html
    You can then change the primary email address on your account e.g. by logging into it via the Store > View Account menu option on your computer's iTunes, or via the 'manage your apple id' button on http://appleid.apple.com
