Duplicate iMessage Alerts With 4S

Hello,
I'm using an IP4S and have a small annoyance.  When I receive a text message the phone alerts me correctly.  As soon as I pick up the phone and enter my unlock PIN I get a second alert for the same message.  I have my message notifications set to never repeat.  Any way to stop this, so it only alerts me once and doesn't repeat the alert when I unlock the phone?
Thanks!

No one is doing anything wrong.  Apple can fix this. Notice that you always get the text message first. Here's what's happening to millions of people:
- Your friend's iPhone is on the default setting, to "Send as SMS when iMessage is unavailable."
- Your friend sends a message from a place where data service (3G, etc.) is spotty, or has cut out for a second, and there is no wi-fi. This triggers iMessage to send the message via SMS, which basically goes through the voice channel of the cellular network, which almost always works. Therefore, you receive the text message.
- Shortly afterward, many times within seconds, your friend regains data service (back on 3G or wifi or whatever) and their phone automatically sends the message again via iMessage.
- You receive a duplicate message.
Solution? On the receiving end, if two messages from the same person contain the same exact text and are received within a minute of each other, iMessage shouldn't show the second one. I'm open to other ideas, but I for one would be happy if my phone did exactly this.

  • Alert Management-"Alerts with Event Linkage" Generate Duplicate Workitems

    Hi Gurus,
    I just finished the tutorial, "Triggering ALM Alerts with Event Linkage" step by step. It trigers an alert by business object bus2012. With the setting of event linkage, it works fine to post alert when POs are changed.
    However, it generates duplicate workitems at Alert Inbox.
    Could you provides any suggestions to solve it out?
    Cheers,

    Hi,
    Are you using a triggering event to start the workflow? Please check the event trace to see if 2 events are bing raised. If so then please check if you or someone else have maintained and entry in SWEC (Change documents) to raise this event also. This may be the reason for 2 events.

    Did you remove your account information from the other person's iPhone?

    I am automating the process of sending appointment reminders to my clients. I started with an alert with an email in calendar using the clients email address as a custom entry in my me card in my contacts. this was resulting in three emails being sent with slightly different versions of the same address (see my previous post). Heating someone else's suggestion I created a workflow file to send an email and calling that file from an alert on my calendar. This is working and sends only one email to the client.
    My calendar is on I cloud and I access it from three different computers so I can keep my appointment calendar current. The files that send the email only exist on one computer. My other computers show error messages when those emails get sent. It seems that each computer wants to send the email. It's a small problem but is there a way that I could not get those alerts.
    But appreciate any thoughts about this. It seems like both problems might be related to the iCloud system.
    Thank you in advance,
    Michael

    Good work, catch so far Michael, does seem to be a "feature" of iCloud syncing, not sure what you could do to disable it.

    my iphone 4 is not recognized by itunes when i connect to it and tells me that the phone is in recovery mode, wants me to restore to factory settings. after i agree , an alert with error 9 stopped the sync. the phone wont start

    Thanks for the response. There is no cloud icon next to them. All of the songs play on the phone still and no song was purchased through iTunes. I added them manually and tried to remove them manually. According to my iTunes they've been removed but they are still on my phone and working.

    How do I use Automator to duplicate a folder with graphics on my desktop and erase their Resource forks?
    I do not use command line and tried to use ZapResourceForksAMAub_1.2 which I downloadedand instaled the Zap Resource Forks.action. Next I tried to use their sample copy-zap-rsrc.workflow in Snow Leopardon my Mac Pro. The 3 different steps are displayed in Automator but there is no place to put in which folder (on my deskto) to copy, and remove the resource forks from the graphic files.
    Can sombody please step me through this please please.

    Ganges
    Login into XI Developement and give SE37 Transaction. Then you give SXMS_ALERT_ERROR_RECEIVE and click 'display'.
    Then you check for the methods CL_XI_ALERT HAS_ACTIVE_RULE, CL_XI_ALERT_UTIL GET_MDT_URL, CL_XI_ALERT CREATE_ALERT and make the changes according to service notes. If you dont find this methods in this function then you can try in SXMS_ALERT_ERROR_SEND.

  • Using alerts with variables-"dynamic text" not working

    Hello all,
    I'm triggering an alert from a BPM, and have set the flag "dynamic text" on for the alert category associated with it. I'm doing it in a similar way to the blog 1382 by Michal:
    [/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/13/alerts-with-variables-from-the-messages-payload-xi--updated|/people/michal.krawczyk2/blog/2005/03/13/alerts-with-variables-from-the-messages-payload-xi--updated]
    The only difference is that I'm just assigning a fixed text instead of a payload element to the container element, which I've defined as simple type - string.
    However, the text of the alert doesn't show anything. I'm getting an email with just "Process <id>" as the subject and "Alert ID: <number>" in the body of the email (the same in the Alert Inbox).
    I'm starting to think that there could be something wrong in PI 7.1 which I'm using, as I've configured other alerts in scenarios without BPM without problem.
    Thanks for your suggestions!

    I've solved it using an alert from the Enterprise Services Builder (Integration Repository). It's a new feature in PI 7.1. It seems the tab "Container" in the alert category didn't exist before (that's why you don't find it in the weblogs of Michal and others) and now you have to use it.

  • IDOC Number from payload in Alerts with out BPM

    Hi Everybody,
    I need to send the IDOC Number as Alert for the user.

  • Anyone know if the long standing duplicate files problem with File History has been fixed yet?

    There are loads of public threads about the duplicate files problem
    with Windows 8/8.1 File History backup system.
    From all the threads I've looked at, there seems to be no solution,
    and no acknowledgement from MS that they can even repro the problem
    (which surprises me considerably as there are so many people who
    notice the problem).
    Is anyone aware of whether MS (may) have fixed this for Win10?
    Are MS aware of the problem and if they're able to fix it?
    Dave - with many GB of duplicated files in File History :)

    Hmm, is that the attitude MS would recommend? :)
    Why would I care what Microsoft would recommend?
    Clearly you don't, and you appear to have missed my smiley. Calm down
    Noel, many of us are as annoyed by aspects of modern Windows as you
    are. :)
    I'm all about making Windows actually WORK/./
    Aren't we all? Windows is software I use too many hours every day, I
    along with many millions of others need it to work really well. You
    are not alone.
    When they implement something that doesn't work, and even if it did work doesn't do what's needed - and/beyond that/ they remove features people DO need (such as the GUI for Windows Backup), I see no wrong in advising people of the way things
    really are.
    File History essentially does work - it's saved me a couple of times
    in the past couple of weeks. It just has a highly annoying habit of
    creating 100% duplicates of some files for no apparent reason. If MS
    have fixed that I won't have any known complaints about it.
    If you don't like it, you don't have to use it. I generally like it, I
    just want to see that its fixed.

  • How to alert with new window when message is comming like MSN

    Please tell me .How to alert with new window when message is comming like MSN?

    Why is it the first think everyone wants to do in JSP is write a chat application?
    Not really an easy way to do this, as HTTP is a "pull" model. You send a request, the server sends a response. The server can't send anything unless you ask for it. That kindof puts a damper on things like instant messaging.
    A couple of workarounds
    1 - refresh the page every once in a while to check for new messages. An easy solution but nowhere near optimal.
    2 - check out pushlets www.pushlets.com

    Hello Jesslb23,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    For more information on this, take a look at:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps first
    Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you have registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you have selected iMessage for use. Learn more about troubleshooting iMessage registration if the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use.
    Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. Learn more about troubleshootingcellular data or a Wi-Fi connection if a data connection isn't available.
    iMessage over cellular data might not be available while on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn more about which network your phone supports. Go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while on a call if your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls.
    Restart your device.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    If you are still unable to send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
    Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    Verify that the contact you are attempting to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact in the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    Back up and restore your device as new.
    Best of luck,
    Mario

    Hi Felix,
    I have been trying to configure alerts using NO RESTRICTION. When i try to trigger my alerts using the report RSALERTEST, message is sent to my alert inbox.
    But, when any error occurs on my Integration Engine or Adapter Engine, the alert is not triggered.I am on SP14.
    Is there any additional configuration that needs to be done for the same?? Are you able to get ALERTS in your inbox whenever anything fails in your Integration Engine or Adapter Engine.
    It would be very helpful if you could answer this query.
    regards,
