Default Alarm Sound Bug iPod Touch

I have a problem with my iPod Touch. When I set an alarm with a sound OTHER than Time Passing it defaults back to Time Passing when it actually goes off. I tried many times to change the sound. The only way I fixed this was to do a complete reset (I don't want to have to keep doing that!). After this I can choose any sound (from those available) and it works as expected. I will try again after a sync and see if this issue still exists.
Is this a known bug? The forum search shows too many unrelated results for me.

This is a known bug, posted many, many times throughout these boards, on both iPhone and iPod touch.

  • Sound from iPod Touch

    Hi,
    I just got an ipod Touch but it wasn't clear in the features guide whether the ipod touch is suppose to give out music sound without the earphones.
    In the settings, it gives the option to choose either speaker, earphones or both.
    So seeing that options, i chose speaker option assuming i will hear the music without the earphones. But i didn't hear any sound from the ipod touch when playing music tracks.
    Am i suppose to hear music sound from ipod touch or is the speaker option for external speakers connecting to the ipod touch?
    i'm worried my ipod touch is faulty.

    The ONLY way to get sound from the IT is with either a headset or external speakers plugged into the audio out jack.
    Unless you turn on the sound for the internal speaker, which is actually a transducer to give small alarm beeps. It won’t play music/audio.
    From the iPod touch user manual, page 78.
    *“Turn sound effects on or off*
    Choose General > Sound Effects and select whether you want sound effects to play
    over _*the internal speaker*_, through the headphones, or both.”

  • HT4972 how do you change the default email on an ipod touch?

    How do you change the default email on an ipod touch so i can verify it?

    Settings>Mail>Default account.
    I do not understand what that has to do with verifying the email address.

  • Can i change the default alarm sound on Iphone 4s

    Can the default alarm sound be changed for new alarms. My mother got an Iphone 4s recently and she can use Siri to set alarms for her, however the default alarm sound is always chosen and that is just not a loud enough sound. And it takes a some messing about to change the sound of the alarm and my 60 year old mother has trouble with changing it.
    Is there any way i can make it change perminently, any help would be much appriciated.

    The default alarm sound is the last sound you used.

  • Looking for a good sound dock/alarm clock for iPOD Touch 4

    I saw one other post asking about a sound dock here and out of the 3 responses, I think only the Bose was mentioned.
    I was just curious if and/or what sound dock/alarm clock combos you all would recommend? I just got a hold of the White Noise app and I would like to be able to use it through a sound dock in my bedroom as I sleep with a fan at night and the audio output on the iPOD Touch itself is not loud enough.
    I don't want to spend an arm and a leg either on a sound dock/alarm clock if at all possible.
    Thanks,

    Altec Lansing. Im using the 'inMotion compact' and for its size it gives a h*ll of a punch with bass wise. As for as price goes, its reasonable.

  • How can I silence everything but the alarm on my iPod Touch?

    I have the 5th Generation iPod Touch and I have a problem. If I turn the ringer/alerts/etc. tones down I don't hear my alarm clock in the morning but if I keep them up loud enough to wake me then app push notifications, emails, etc. are prone to waking me in the night as well. I don't want to disable all those notifications, just silence them at night.
    I've seen threads asking this regarding the iPhones and apparently they have a switch or something but I'm not sure about the Touch. How can I silence everything except the alarms?

    You could go to Setting > Sounds > Text Tone or etc. and change them to None. But then you will have to set them back in the morning. But there is no other way then to mute all ringer and alerts.

  • Can I put a song as an alarm on my ipod touch

    I am trying to change my alarm sounds, wanting to put a song instead of using the options they have and can't figure out if this is possible.

    I added the song "Let Me Take You Home Tonight" by Boston by going to the iTunes Music Store and purchasing it as a ringtone.  If you do it from your computer you have to sync it to your iPod Touch.  Then in the alam sounds panel there is a place for "purchased"  Your song should appear there.

  • IMPORTANT - Sound on iPod Touch not working

    My iPod touch 4g has been exposed to water, and now the sound does not work. If I plug it into a docking station, the audio will work, however, when I take it off, there is no volume slider. My headphones worked earlier (whenever I plug them in, Voice Control comes up), and the audio worked fine. However, now the headphones do not work! The speakers do not work at all since water contact.
    Please help me. I am panicking a lot now.

    Assuming the iPod is now dry:
    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so. There is a little switch in the headphone jack that disconnects the speaker when the headphone jack is inserted.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a hardware problem caused by the water.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPod for a refurbished one for $199 for 64 GB 4G and $99 for the others. They do not fix yours.

  • Default Alarm Usability Bug

    I think that iCal is great but it lacks the basic ability to specify a default alarm value. This is a critical, basic function that even the most brain-dead calendar applications provide. Without it, it is very easy to enter appts and forget to set the alarm which is for most people a critical error.
    Please Apple, fix this usability bug so your customers don't keep missing appts and cause people to think all iCal users are unreliable :>).

    Mark, How can we help you? At least frame your complaint in the form of a question.

  • How to access default alarm sound ?

    I am making an alarm application and I want to use the alarm sound that apple use for their alarm app.
    Is there a way I can access those sounds in SDK ?

    My knowledge says that this can't be done.
    Any ideas on this ?

  • How to change default alarm sound for events

    I remember initially when setting up ical, it gave an option to set a default sound for messages. I want to change the sound, but cannot find the option to do so. currently when creating a nerw event, the message with sound option shows up with the default sound (Basso) that I selected initially. And I have to change it manually every time a new event is created. Is there a way to change the default sound?

    Settings > Sounds > Calendar. Maybe it was inaudible because yoursound was not turned up.

  • Problems with sound on iPod Touch 2nd Gen

    After the most recent update, the sound on my iPod doesn't work anymore. I restored it to original and it cured my battery problem. The sound meter came up right away, but disappeared right away. I can shut it off for awhile and the sound comes back, but disappears right away again. What is going on? Does anyone else have this problem? The sound meter is there, so it is not a hardware problem. Will a new update take care of this or am I just up a creek without a paddle? Any and all information is appreciated.
    Thanks

    I just updated my iPod software and now I have sound, but not thru the speaker. Just headphones work, which is OK. Problem solved for now.
