I have deleted hundreds of pictures, I've deleted apps, deleted emails and texts, and I've turned off and deleted backups of apps on icloud and it is still telling me that there is not enough icloud storage available for my phone to be backed up. I am supposed to do this before I go to the Apple store today to get my phone fixed. Can someone please help me? I have done almost everything.
This article explains ways to reduce your iCloud storage: Managing your iCloud storage. In addition to what's mentioned in the article, if you have lots of photos and videos attached to your text messages, these are all included in your iCloud backup and deleting them can sometimes significantly reduce the size of your backup.
If worse comes to worse, back up your phone to your computer rather than iCloud. To do this, connect it to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Back Up and to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. This can be used to restore your data when you get your phone back. (In fact, it's faster because you don't have to download the data from iCloud.) -
My iPhone just stopped giving me audible notifications for email and text messages. It still rings for calls. I have checked the settings for "Sounds" and they have not changed. However, in these settings when I try to change the sound I get only the vibration and not the sample sound. Can anyone help?

How do I get my Blackberry to only show me email and text messages? OS 6.0
I'm in a love/hate relationship with OS 6.0 on a Bold 9650
It is giving me too much information. I only want to see and be notified of email and text messages, but it is now showing me Calendar and Facebook messages and notices.
Can I change the settings and turn off these items? I can't find anything on it.
Thanks!!! SheriGNP
Solved!
Go to Solution.Facebook messages: Open Facebook > press the Menu key > Options > scroll down to and UNselect the option to integrate Facebook with your Messages application.
For both Facebook and Calendar notifications, go to your profiles and set the notications for these two apps to be silent or no notification.
Untill you learn many of the simple features of the BlackBerry 9650, you will be frustrated.

When will the bluetooth support audio alerts for email and text messages?
When will the bluetooth support audio alerts for email and text messages? It works when I get a phone call, but I'd like it to work when getting a text message (I do this a lot in noisier areas and would rather not have to look at the phone every few minutes)
Or is there a configuration option I'm missing?Answered in this thread:

Email and text messages notifications
I was wondering is there any way to set the iphone so that as soon as you get an email or a text, you are notified immediately. It seems that I am only notified when I update my mail and that's when the phone tells me how many mails I have received. It only happens at that moment. I want to be notified right away as soon as I receive the email or text.
If you have an email account that supports Push access for received messages which doesn't require having the account checked automatically or manually for new messages, you will hear the new mail notification sound if on when a new message or messages pushed out by the incoming mail server are received along with a badge notification on the Mail app indicating the number of new and unread messages.
If the email account does not support Push access for received messages or this is turned off, you can have the account checked for new messages automatically, which is the Fetch setting and the same will apply when new messages have been received. -
Droid Mini notifications for email and text not working
I am having a problem with notification sounds not working for email and text messages with my Droid Mini. I took my original phone to the Verizon shop. They did a factory reset. Sound worked for two days. Went back to Verizon and they reset it again. But they did tell me if it happened again to call Verizon and they would send me a new phone. Well it happened again. Got my new phone just last week. Well yesterday and today the sound notifications for text messages and email is not working on the new phone. Last night I powered the phone off and back on and all was working well until this morning.
This is very upsetting as I really do like this phone. Would like to know what is going on with it. Have checked all the volumes and they are all up.
Is there a fix for this.
Thank you.
Barbara

There are some additional notification options for labels too. -
Email and Text Alerts for deaf users? A critical necessity!
I'm a little confused. I have to use "vibrate" as my ring tone because I'm deaf. Email and text messages **ARE** the telephone for deaf users and we want to know immediately when we receive an email or txt message. But I only get one little buzz when I get an email message and I almost never notice it because it's so short. Isn't there a way to make the vibrations repeat, say, 3 or 4 times, or even until you respond to the alert? I could ask the same question about calendar alerts. Is there any way controlling how many vibrations you want to receive when your calendar kicks in? I need an alert that will draw my attention to it, nag me a little when I need it to.
There is no way to adjust vibration lengths or times.

How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.
