Can you set a ringtone for the palm pre text messages..​.Please help!!!!

I use to have a centro and you were able to set a special tone for you to identify if that was a text msg or a call coming through. Can you do this with the Palm Pre because I can;t find it?

Where do I need to make noise to? I have had nothing but problems with this thing. From waiting on activation over a 2 day period, to having to manually cut and copy my phone numbers from a csv file, that best buy told me would work without a glitch, into my google account. Now after 4 days I am more comfortable with the phone but am finding out how many things are problems. 
*wireless printing
*sync way too many contacts from unneeded accounts
*lack of accessories and applications
*poor battery- even sitting overnight lost 1/2 its battery
*message tone - singular, unloud, not even audible while in a car
*I cant find any way to select text while typing, have to tap, delete, retype. but cant cut, copy and paste. No way to select stuff.
I know its a whole new OS, a brand new phone. But come on palm. Do more quality control and TESTING. Not just with geeks, give more to a bigger diversity of customers. Why sprint didnt pre release to exsisting customers to try out in comparison to their currently useless handsets, is unknown. But someone needed to chime in about TINY little things, like changing the message tone! That eventually will bring the rating and functionality of the handset and get a big thumbs down from users.

    You can set up each one of your contacts with a ringtone and use the default for all other unknown numbers. There is no way to set up a ringtone for unknown numbers.

  • N97: Can you set a ringtone for all unknown caller...

    I just moved to a Nokia N97 from a Palm Treo Pro. So far so good, but one thing I cannot seem to find any information on is whether or not you can set ringtones for all unknown callers, like you can on a palm? This was one of my favorite features for palm phones.
    If you cannot set a specific ringtone for all unknown callers on the handset itself, does anyone know of an application I can download that would enable this? 
    Thanks for your time!

    While you're waiting for that application. You can put everyone in a group and set specific tones for each group then the default ring tone will sound when unknown people call you
    Show your appreciation. Hit that kudos button real hard

    will my mac back up to time machine wile it is on but shut (asleep) and can you set a time for backups???

    If your Mac Model supports POWERNAP under Mountain Lion, yes backups and software updates can occur while the mac is taking a power nap (kind of light sleep).

  • Can you set different sounds for different incoming email accounts?

    Can you set different sounds for different incoming email accounts? Example, I have multiple email accounts on Mail. I would like the sound for my roadrunner account to be different from my .mac and personal website accounts. Is it possible to configure this or is there a script out there that someone knows about.
    Thanks

    You could choose None in Preferences > General > New Mail Sound and set up a rule for each account in Preferences > Rules as follows:
    If [any/all] of the following conditions are met:
    [Account] [AccountName]
    Perform the following actions:
    [Play Sound] [Sound]
    Problem is, that would cause the sound to be played for junk mail as well — probably not what you want.

    If you are referring to iBooks on iOS based devices, no, they cannot be read on the Mac OS X. Two different operating systems.

    Can you make iOS 7 for the IPod 4th generation because to be honest it's not fair to us iPod 4th Generation users that the iPod 5 and the IPhone users get to have it but we don't

    All the iOS devices compatible (iPhone 4 and later, iPad 2 and later, and 5G iPod touch) with iOS 7 have at least 512 MB of memory. The 4G only has 256 MB

  • Flash for the Palm Pre

    Now that flash is on general release where do I go to download the Palm Pre version?

    It seems any post or forum that Adobe doesn't like gets "frozen" out when discussing Flash for the Palm Pre.  The missing Palm Pre Flash and the "shift of blame" by Adobe to Palm has been a common theme  (see http://forums.adobe.com/message/2748422#2748422 as an example) is becoming tiresome.
    Yet if you ask Palm they tell you its nothing to do with them, why would it be?  That is such a silly dead-end statement that I suspect Adobe are far to embarrassed by what's actually happened.  If they want to prove me wrong then how about they release the flash to me rather than Palm?  LOL now, there's a novel idea!
    I suspect this has something to do the popular rise of Android, an operating system for mobiles that was still in design when webOS for Palm Pre was already established.  It appears, and no one denies, that the demo on the Palm Pre, you know the one, the one that made us all go out and get the Palm instead of the iPhone, was an iphoney.
    We have been duped.
    While much of the web relies on Adobe technology at the moment the end of their business cycle is in site, not just HTML 5, but sentiment in general.  The lack of respect, clarity, accountability and honesty in the main to blame.

  • Compressing for the Palm Pre

    I was wondering if anyone knew what was the optimum codec to use for the Palm Pre. Is it basically an iPhone?

    It uses H.264 so the iPhone presets should work on it.

    Question already asked and answered several times.
    It's a bug striking in long documents.
