Controlling # of calendar alert vibrations - e71

Is there a way to have the calendar alerts only vibrate x number of times (say 3) instead of constantly - before shutting off?

I don't think the default calandar application has a setting to define the number of vibrations for the alert.
The alert type will depend on the current profile selected.

How do you stop calendar alerts from setting themselves on iOS 7?

After my upgrade to iOS 7, my wife's gmail calendar items on my iPhone now all have alerts set for 5 minutes before the event. In Gmail, the none of her events have alerts set. I'd like that to be how my iPhone shows them. I have tried to fix by deleting her calendar account and re-adding. Didn't work. I didn't have this problem before the upgrade to iOS 7. Events without reminders in gmail should not have reminders on my iPhone, right? I have the default alert time set to 5 minutes, but that should only control new calendar items, right? On my work calendar, event alert times are still controlled correctly (if the event has a 15 minute alert, it stays at 15 minutes). One last piece, I successfully upgraded my iPad without this problem happening there. Suggestions?

Did you automatically sync? If so, try manually syncing. At least this way, you will have control of the music you sync. No duplicates.

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'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 happening

My calendar entries have little yellow bells by them, but the Bb's not giving any kind of audible alert tone or vibration when the appt. is due. I've looked in calendar options, profiles, where my Bb is set to "normal," and settings, but nothing about setting the calendar alerts is there. It seems like such a simple issue--anyone know how to turn on the calendar alert?
Thanks so much for your time, and best wishes!
Solved!
Go to Solution.

You have to first click on your profile icon, then scroll down and select advanced. Then click on normal if that's what you use. Then you will see all the things you can change the tone for. Click calendar and adjust as you wish, just remember to hit the back key and save.

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.

Calendar alert issues with ios5

I am having trouble with getting audible calendar alerts on my iPhone 4 with ios5. Ever since I downloaded ios5 about 2 weeks ago, all I can get for alerts on my calendar appointments are vibrating alerts. I have gone to settings and selected an audible alert, but it still only vibrates at alert time. I am able to get audible alerts for text messages, and my "todo" list app, so I believe my volume is set at an appropriate level. Is anyne else experiencing htis, and have you found a solution?

Thanks for the suggestion, I wasn't sure if the default alert would have an impact, since I selected a specific alert time. However, I went into settings and tried to set the defailt time. Same result, I am still onyl getting a vibrating alert, with no audible tone.

All notifications Off, but calendar alerts won't stop?

I've loaned my old iPhone (3G running iOS 4.2.1 with no SIM card) to an elderly relative, just as an "iPod Touch" for ONE purpose only: to run a 24/7 web app I made that shows the time and date in super large yellow print. (It also shows the time of day in natural English, like "late morning," because AM vs. PM confuses her.) She loves it and relies on it! It solves a daily problem in her life that no clock has been able to solve. She is no longer embarassed not to know what time of day it is when people call/visit. She can now be self-reliant in a small but important way.
But it's having a problem.
She is not tech-savvy and has memory problems, so I need to keep the experience as simple as any wall clock--nothing interactive. I have turned on EVERY parental restrictriction (apps are all hidden) and moved all the Apple apps and Settings to page 2. (If she hits the Home button by accident, page 1 only has one icon--my clock. Even the Dock is empty.) I turned off locking, sleeping, and vibrating. I set the volume to zero and set ALL Notifications completely Off.
And yet... my old scheduled calendar reminders (monthly bills, rent, taxes, etc.) keep popping up! You can imagine how bad that is to someone in a (sometimes) confused state. Her clock is telling her she has to pay some bill or do something urgent! A caregiver who visits every other day dismisses the alerts (about 1 per week) but it's still a problem. Sometimes her vision is good enough to actually read the alerts if she gets close, and regardless, the alerts block the clock display.
Even worse, if she ever accidentally touches the screen, the alert might send her into the calendar app which would be utterly confusing. If that happens even once, she will be sure she has broken it. She'll blame herself, and this clock that is such a relief and comfort to her will become a source of fear and stress, just like her microwave and her cordless phone. Technology terrifies her, and even other wall clocks have been a problem. (She always thinks electrical devicses are interfering with each other--like thinking that she has lost some of her TV channels because she hit the wrong button on her phone, or thinking her fridge is ruining the food because the microwave clock started blinking.)
Any thoughts? Why would it still be showing calendar alerts?
I live in another state entirely, so I'm hoping this is something simple that I can talk the caregiver though on the phone. (Deleting calendar events manually, say, or wiping and reinstalling the phone, would be last resorts--those would have to wait until I next visit in person.)
TIA!

I have just tested this on my own device and discovered that even with notifications in the Notifications Centre turned off, if you have alerts set in the calendar entry they will still display and bleep on the screen. You may need to go into the entries that are appearing on her device and remove the alert.

Calendar alert post-Mavericks installation won't stop chiming

Installed Mavericks yesterday over Snow Leopard (10.6.8) and have had a host of problems that have paralysed my computer use. As someone who's not particularly tech-savvy and relies on their Mac for their living, this has been a nightmare. The most irritating problem has been that I use the glass chime for my calendar alert. Well, it won't stop ringing--it's like a button's depressed and stuck in that position. Can anyone help? It renders the audio unusable now, which means no VOIP calling or audio of any kind as I'm forced to keep it on mute. And I can't find anything on the Internet that indicates anyone else has had the same problem. Can anyone help? (And no idea if this is connected but my mouse is fluttering all over the place, which is yet another annoyance, leaving me wondering why I was so stupid as to upgrade.)
Thanks!!

1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
Don't be put off merely by the seeming complexity of these instructions. The process is much less complicated than the description. You do harder tasks with the computer all the time.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. As I wrote above, it changes nothing. It doesn't send or receive any data on the network. All it does is to generate a human-readable report on the state of the computer. That report goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. If you prefer, you can read it yourself without disclosing the contents to me or anyone else.
You should be wondering whether you can believe me, and whether it's safe to run a program at the behest of a stranger. In general, no, it's not safe and I don't encourage it.
In this case, however, there are a couple of ways for you to decide whether the program is safe without having to trust me. First, you can read it. Unlike an application that you download and click to run, it's transparent, so anyone with the necessary skill can verify what it does.
You may not be able to understand the script yourself. But variations of the script have been posted on this website thousands of times over a period of years. The site is hosted by Apple, which does not allow it to be used to distribute harmful software. Any one of the millions of registered users could have read the script and raised the alarm if it was harmful. Then I would not be here now and you would not be reading this message.
Nevertheless, if you can't satisfy yourself that these instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
4. Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
5. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
6. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
7. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
8. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
9. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "Syntax error" or "Event not found," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
10. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
11. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report what happened. No harm will be done.
12. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with the words "Start time." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
13. When you post the results, you might see an error message on the web page: "You have included content in your post that is not permitted," or "You are not authorized to post." That's a bug in the forum software. Please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
14. This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

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,
- Judy

Two iPhones. One account. Can I have separate calendar alerts?

I have a new 4s. My wife has my old 3GS. We are using the same iTunes/iCloud apple I'd account. It's nice because she can make her own calendar and I can make my own calendar. If I don't want to see her calendar I just deselect it in the calendars to view menu. I can see her stuff if I want to and she mine by going the other way. The problem is Calendar ALERTs. Even if I've deselected her calendar, my iPhone still beeps a reminder at me from one of her Calendar alerts and vice versa. Is there some way to make it so that the alerts only occurr if I've selected her calendar to view?
I also have kinda the same problem with reminders. She gets mine and I get hers even though I've got two separate "lists" of reminders. Can I stop that?
Also a similar deal with contacts. Can we have separate contacts lists and only see the others when we want to?

No, sorry.

I can no longer determine a calendar alert snooze time?

I'm very dependent on my calendar alerts and use them for recurring events like bill paying and unique events like meetings and doctor appointments. Up until OS 10.7 (Lion), when an alert popped up and I wanted to continue being alerted of that event, I could simply choose the snooze time (be it 5 minutes, an hour, a day or a week) and could continue to be re-reminded until I chose not to be.
Last week I upgraded to Mountain Lion so I could take maximum advantage of iCloud and my new iPhone 5. After much frustration and searching, it's apparent that the option of determining the snooze time in "Calendar", formerly known as "iCal" is simply no longer an option. Why remove a core feature of a core app? I'm stuck using the default snooze time as set in the calendar app, then, when the alert does pop up, I'm stuck with either dismissing it completely or hitting "snooze" only to be reminded every 15 or 20 minutes. This works okay for events with a short lag time, but in other cases (I will sometimes set up a bill payment reminder days before it's due so I have time to cover the due amount in my bank account) I'm stuck having either it pop up incessantly for days EVERY 20 minutes for DAYS or dismissing it, risking missing the payment due date.
I know from scanning these forums that a lot of other people are unhappy with the dumbed down functionality of this core app. I haven't been able to find an alternative to the app from any third-party. It sounds like both "busycal" and "fantastical" are dependent on Apple's calendar app so I don't know if they will solve the problem or not. I don't really wnat to spend money on a third party app just to get back a core function of an app I've been dependent on for years.
If anyone has found a good alternative to help get back this simple, but critical functionality, I'd love to know about it. Thanks!

I have also submitted feedback to Apple about this, as I think they have rendered Calendar all but useless by stripping out the ability to set sound cues, and to specify the lag time when hitting the "snooze" button. I completely agree, this is a serious and unprofessional messtep to remove a core function as though it were a trivial feature of the software. I've been a loyal Apple consumer for two decades, and this really makes me angry.
I am hopeful the wonderful people at Apple will restore this function with the next update to the OS.

Iphone 4s calendar alert issue

I tend to put 2 alerts on my calendar events, one for 1 day before and the second one for 1 hour before (or some other on the day of event). I have noticed that when I put in the first alert for 1 day before and then enter the second alert for 1 hour before and click done they have somehow been reversed, the first alert is now 1 hour before and the second alert is 1 day before. I have to click them again and change them to the proper order, this usually take about 3 tries to get them to stay as I want them. I can them save the event and all is good. I was at the Apple store and the staff duplicated this issue so I know I'm not the only one experiencing this nuissance. Has anyone else come across this? I do hope the upcoming update will fix it.

Update since Genius visit:
1) Apple is working on an update
2) There is no awareness at Apple of this calendar alert issue as a bug, hence it is not being addressed/worked on
3) Solutions offered by Genius have not resolved this issue.
Solutions offered by Genius, in order of which to try first:
1) Delete calendar data from iPhone: Settings>iCloud>Calendars OFF and then restore data from iCloud: Calendars ON
2) Reset iPhone settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset all settings
3) Restore to factory settings: Settings>General>Reset>Erase all content and settings, then restore data from iCloud and in-app backups.
4) Use another calendar app (seriously)
Of course, if the bug is actually part of the iOS software (could it be?) then no amount of erasing and restoring data will fix the issue. I completed the first two options with no change, and am not willing to do the third option because I am not interested in going through the process of backing up, then restoring all my third-party apps.
My solution: raise awareness of this issue with Apple, so that it can be worked on and fixed. I have reported it as a bug through Apple's feedback module: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html and I encourage-- no, ask-- you to do the same, if you are experiencing this issue. I provided a link to this forum topic to show the variety and detail of problems.
Are you sick of missing alerts, fiddling endlessly, coming up with workarounds, paying for unreliable software, and not being responded to? I am. It's time to rally!

My calendar alerts are no longer audio.

My calendar alerts on my Ipod touch used to be audio. At some point I've lost that. The alert will pop up, but will not tone. All other audio (alarm, music, etc.) works just fine. How can I get my audio back for my alerts?

think I did that right...the apple appeared anyway
when I tap any of the sounds under the calendar alerts (or the reminder alerts) nothing is audible. yet, when I tap under the ringtones, I can hear each of them as I change. I did set the timer, just to make sure I could hear that, and it works just fine (played marimba just like always...) This is bizarre, because the alerts used to tone...I don't remember doing anything different, or any updates, before they quit working.
let me know if you can think of anything else...those tones are qreat for when I get busy. I could set it to alert me an hour before an appointment and then I didn't miss a thing!

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.
