Disable Popup Alerts While Writing Text or Email?

Is there any way to disable the annoying alerts that pop up while you're in the middle of writing an email or a text? I'll be right in the middle of typing something and the alert will pop up; next thing I know I've hit the alert with my thumb and {{ whoosh }} off I go into some completely other place. It's so freaking annoying! But I don't want to disable the alerts all together--only while I'm typing. Alerts are the only way I know if I received a message since the iPhone has no blinking light or other reminder.  Anyone else annoyed by this? Any known fixes/workarounds/solutions out there?

They're email alerts. When I'm typing a text message or email and I receive a text or an email, the alert for that text or email pops up right in the middle of my screen while I'm typing (see picture) so I accidentally hit the alert and either hit "Close" or "Options" by accident. If I hit "Options," I've sometimes accidentally hit "Trash" and then I have no idea what the alert was even for. I use my iPhone for business and I've lost opportunities because I've accidentally trashed things.
Surely I can't be the only person this is happening to.

  • Why is my Flex extension for Photoshop out of focus while writing text?

    Hi All,
    I have a query. Why is my Flex extension for Photoshop out of focus while I am writing text to a layer? I noticed that if I am writing some text in a text layer, and while writing I try to do some action in my extension, like clicking a button, I am unable to do so.. Why is that? The extension doesn't receive any click events.. I have to select the layer and then perform any such action.. Please answer if there is a way of solving this issue..
    Thanks!

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    In Firefox 4 [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Safe_mode Safe mode] disables extensions and disables hardware acceleration.<br />
    If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.
    * Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    In Firefox 4 you can use one of these to start in <u>[[Safe mode]]</u>:
    * Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Hold down the Shift key while double clicking the Firefox desktop shortcut (Windows)

  • Disable Security  Alert while redirecting for secure to non secure mode.

    Hi Experts,
    I am new to the portal and came accross a very different kind of requirement for which i need you advice.
    On pressing the Logout button on the portal, the navigation/control is redirecting to the non secure Http website. My portal is on Https site. Now the issue is upon logging out I am getting the security Alert " You are about to direct to a connection that is non secure. Do you want to continue? "
    Now I have a requirement to suppress or remove this pop up. I do understand that this is the IE functionality to show the pop message and I have already uncheck the check box under Internet Options -> Advanced -> miscellaneous -> Warn if changiung between Secure to non secure.

  • Why am I getting double popup alerts for Google Calendar events on iPhone?

    This is happening on both mine and my wife's iPhones (mine is a 4 and hers is a 3GS) which are both on the latest iOS (6.0.1).  This is what I've figured out:
    On iPhones: Default is to set no alerts/reminder for calendar events
    On Google Calendar: Default is to set a popup alert 1 hour before event & email 1 hour before event
    When I create a new event on my iPhone: It saves with no alerts set, then after uploading to google calendar it shows as having two alerts 1 hour before the event.  If I go into Google Calendar, it shows that 1 popup and 1 email are each set for 1 hour before the event.
    When I create a new event on in Google Calendar: It saves with 1 popup and 1 email are each set for 1 hour before the event per the default settings.  If I go to my iPhone, it shows that I have 2 alerts, both for 1 hour before the event.
    So it seems that the iPhone is seeing both the popup and email alerts and creating two popup alerts on my phone!
    Is there anyway to fix this?  I've tried setting up the calendar on my iPhone through Gmail account, Exchange account and CalDav account and it's all the same.

    I figured it out.  It has to do with which calendars you want displayed.  Duplications come from multiple calender selections.

    Hi, While writing an email online using Firefox 3.6.3, I was using one of the "CTRL+left or right arrow" to move the cursor along the text. I must have pressed some other key because the display has become huge - and I can't scroll vertically or horizontally, which makes using the Mail pages of Hotmail impossible. I have since logged in using MSFT Explorer and it works fine. This problem occurs only on the Mail page of Hotmail Live not on the home page or others.
    Could you please let me know if this is a problem with Firefox, or if you have any advice on how to reset the appearance of Hotmail in Firefox?
    == This happened ==
    Just once or twice
    == While I was compiling an email in Hotmail Live

    Wow, lightning fast and absolutely right!
    Thank you so much!

  • ALERT Category Lont Text (email) fomatting

    I have Alert Management configured to send an email alert correctly. I need some formatting for the email and therefore I choose to edit the alert category long text using SO10 ( remembering that the Text-id is ALRT ). while editing the Alert's Long Text using SO10, I add bolding, paragraph formatting and some IF statement as I would in a sapscipt for as commands. Print Preview of the newly updated standard text ( example used ALRTFRMWRKTESTL for SAP supplied alert category ASRTFRMWRKTEST ) show the formatting looks great, but when we triger the alert and view the correponding email based on this long text, we find the formatting is lost. Is there a way to hae the formatting show in the email?

    Hello,
    I Think you are able to send the email with HTML tags.
    You can also use the famous FM ZOUTLOOK to send email with the format you want, but you can only do it with you oulook client.
    hope this helps

  • After upgrade to iOS8 on my iPhone5, I do not see smart keyboard options while typing message or email text

    after upgrade to iOS8 on my iPhone5, I do not see smart keyboard options while typing message or email text

    Go to Settings>General>Keyboards>Predictive Text>ON. If it is on, you can toggle it off and then back on. The other method is to check in the typing area of the Messages app and it could be minimized. You would see a small line in the center just below the typing area. You would just need to put your finger on that small line and swipe upwards. But either should bring it back.

  • Receiving text and email notifications while on call

    While I'm on a call, I receive text and email notifications (by a sound and a buzz). Is there a way to shut this off, as it's annoying when there are multiple messages coming through.

    Sure; go to settings > sounds and set "new text" and "new VM" to off.
    Of course this turns them off ALL the time; your only choice ( I am sure there is a hack for this oversight out there somewhere, though)
    This is not a business class smartphone ; its an iPhone.

  • I can no longer (since upgrading to the latest firefox) open up multiple tabs of the same page (something I need to be able to do when emailing and referencing multiple emails while writing one email). The only option it gives me is to 'switch to tab'.

    Question
    I can no longer (since upgrading to the latest firefox) open up multiple tabs of the same page (something I need to be able to do when emailing and referencing multiple emails while writing one email). The only option it gives me is to 'switch to tab'.

    I'll try to make this clear. I USED to be able to left click on a hyper link and the hyper link would open in a NEW tab. Now for some unknown reason the hyper link by default opens in the same tab (window). I have to right click the hyper link in order for it to open in a NEW tab. (Yes, my 'tools'> 'options'> 'tabs' are set to "open new windows in a new tab." (Please no answers telling me to get rid of the Ask toolbar because I don't have one.) Thank you.

  • Writing text file in while loop

    Here is my question about writing text data to a file in a while loop...worded best I can.
    I have an Init case where I have the user choose a file path and name. I take the ref out and then I have data that is being written to the file. The loop will take 40,000 pieces of data write them to the file and go back to the get data case to collect another 40,000 data points. But when I open the file, I only get a file as big as 430KB. I'm not sure but can somone show me an example of pulling analog data from a DAQ Assist, doing a calculatoin on it, writing it to a file and repeating that by adding it to the same file at the end of the previous data?

    The only way to do that at this time is to use the mute switch on the side of the phone. You can provide feedback to Apple at www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.
