  • Changing text notification alert?

    I am trying to change the text message alert to a custom alert, but the only choices I have are the preloaded alerts.  Is there a way to change the alerts to something other than the preloaded ones?

    THANK YOU!  That app did the trick!!         

  • Is it possible to change the text alert tone on an iPhone 5s to a custom tone?

    Hi,
    Just wondering if there is any way to add a custom tone for when a text arrives? I want to use 'i've got to get a message to you'

    Hi,
    I found this on Youtube, 'how to make SMS ringtones for iPhones running iOS 5 or higher without jailbreaking'. It uses a free app called Ringtone Maker. I now have the text alert I wanted.

  • How can I download a new text alert from i tunes?

    I have an Iphone 4, How can I download a new text alert from I tunes?  I can download a ringtone, but not a text alert?

    ok thanks for that, it just seems daft that for such an advanced phone it wont let you do anything as basic as changing a text alert
    on a similar gripe, would you be able to tell me why the bluetooth doesn't appear to work either?

  • Has anyone had issues with not hearing the text alerts on the iPhone 5?

    hello i have been having issues with my iphone 5 not hearing the text alert tones.it will go from time to time & only hear the vibrating sound, The wired part is all other alerts work fine , just text. 
    Has anyone having this same issue ? Also i noticed sometimes when i text, i'll see some crazy blury lines go across my screen like as i text it will move across any help?

    I have had that issue with no text alert sound and also with calls, no ring for the call but then I got a missed call or voicemail alert. Never had the blurry lines though. Right after I upgraded, the ring changed to a very short version of what I have selected and only rang once, other times not at all. This was a very big problem since I am working from my car most of the day and get a lot of calls and texts.  I did a reset with home button and button on the top as described in a post somewhere here on the forum and the problems stopped. So far so good. Give reset a try!

  • Changing text tone.

    Hey there, i am new ios. I just got my iphone 5 few days ago. After being with android for about 4 years. i just figured out how to change the ringtone and now i wanted to know how to i change the text tone. I want to make my own. Is this even possible.
    Thank you guys.

    There are two ways to set a Text Tone on an iPhone. One is the general default tone and the second is for individual contacts. The general default can be set in Settings > Sounds > Text Tone and the setting for individual contacts is in the Phone app were you will select a contact and press the Edit button at the top left, scroll down and select Text Tone to change the alert. This is also the same for Ringtones as you will see the option for that just above the Text Tone option in both examples. In my experience I have not found a way to create a custom Text Tone only custom Ringtones. Hope that helps.

  • 1571 - Text Alert

    Whenever a message was left through 1571 I received a text alert, however, I've recently changed mobile phone number and can't find a way to update details to new mobile number.
    Any suggestions?

    You can set it up or change it by dialling 0800 389 5660 from your home number

  • I can't seem to change my alert for test tones.  No matter which alert tone I set, it always defaults to "glass."  Thanks

    I am unable to change my alert tone for Text Tones or Voicemail.  No matter which tone I select, the phone defaults to "glass."  any help will be appreciated.

    Thanks both of you.
    Looks like I didn't have a problem after all. I had naively assumed that moving the volume control in the menu bar would play the selected alert sound (just as it used to do in OS9 and 10.1.5), but obviously this is not the case. Like you, I do indeed get the correct sound if I get a genuine alert.

  • Text alerts

    is there any way to change the alert for my text messages.  It is the same as my yahoo email and work email.  I would like a different tone or be able to turn off the other email alerts.  Help!!

    Open Text icon Menu-Play Notification Sound then choose  the sound from the next menu item.  Same for Gmail.  For the other mail programs I have only found on or off

  • Ios5 update: repeated text alert tones.

    Hello and for those who are curious about this topic.. This is the low down...
    I will recieve a text alert.. Then half way through that alert... I will have another.. Then just after that has been alerted.. Another will send straight after.
    After the tones have stopped, if i am playing music, the music will fade in and out constantly as if i am still hearing the text alerts :S
    This started after i updated to IOS5, anyone else have this? Its really annoying!

    I solved the problem by changing the SMS tone in the settings menu. After this I reseted the tone to the original sound. Very strange, but it worked!

  • BT 1571 Text Alerts

    Hi,
    I've recently changed my mobile number and have (strangely) started receiving BT 1571 text alerts for what appears to be someone elses BT landline number!  I've rang various numbers in BT to try to get this stopped but always end up at an Indian Call centre where the staff don't seem to understand what I'm talking about!   My new mobile number must be a "recycled" number which has previously belonged to someone else.   Please help - these constant 1571 text messages are driving me crazy!!  Thanks

  • HT201412 iPhone 4S text alerts stop working

    I've have iOS 6 for months. Out of the blue my text alerts stopped working. I've rebooted a few times to no avail. All settings look right. And everything else seems to be working proper.

    Diesel I tend to agree with you there! All other sounds do work and I have the "glass" tone choosen for texting. I was all working fine with the new ios6 which I've had for months. since all other sounds work, I'll be heading to the genius bar at my local apple store. Now if only I'd taken that apple care ....LOL oh well
