Email Alert Sounds - Multiple Sounds

Can you assign different alert sounds for separate email accounts on the 4s?  I have two different email accounts on my iPhone.  I would like to set a different sound for each account.  Is this possible?

You used to be able to do this in a previous iOS version.  I know it used to be possible because my iPhone is set up that way right now.  As a matter of fact I just submitted a question asking how I can change the sound played for one of my accounts because the current sound is grating on my nerves.  Why did Apple take that function away?  I am hoping it was just an over sight and not intentional.  If it was intentional - that was a horrible decision on someone's part and they need to re-instate that function in the next iOS update.

  • The text/email/alerts sound volume has gone right down on my iPhone 4

    The text/email/alerts sound volume has gone right down on my iPhone 4, but the ringtone volume is still loud! Adjusting the volume in "Settings" only changes the ringer volume, I just can't find a way to increase the alerts volume! Help please!!!

    Hi ecsands,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    To "Choose alert sounds, adjust the alert volume, or turn vibrate on or off: Go to Settings > Sounds."
    For more information, see Pg. 28 - 29 of the iPhone User Guide:

    I just got an iPhone4S.  I have four email addresses.  Can each email address be set up with a separate alert sound?

    Sadly, you cannot.

  • Still no email alert sounds after re-install from scratch NASTY BUG

    MacBook Pro 2011 - Mountain Lion Clean install - no third party app's installed.
    Just after a few days, I lost my e-mail alert sound again. I am reviving my last post that was suddenly archived.
    I have a really good tech person, and he is really puzzled, just said a definite NASTY BUG in the OS.

  • PI Email Alert Configuration - Multiple Alert in Adapter Engine

    Hi,
    My SAP PI alert emails are now working. However, when I get an error in the Adapter Engine (RWB),MULTIPLE OF EMAIL ALERTS are being sent. When an error occurs in Integration Engine, only 1 email alert is sent.
    For the Adapter Engine Alert Rule, i have checked the 'Suppress Multiple Alerts of This Rule' and i didn't receive any emails, but when I unchecked it, i receive multiple emails.
    im using PI7.1 SP08. is there an effect because my SP is not updated?
    thank you.

    HI Indrajit,
    thanks for the response.
    i have checked the 'Suppress Multiple Alerts of This Rule' but i am not receiving an alert message. The error occurred in the RWB Adapter Engine. However, if i uncheck the 'Suppress Multiple Alerts of This Rule', i am receiving multiple alert messages.
    Is there an additional configuration?
    thank you.

  • Add custom message/email alert sounds (not ringtones)

    Hi,
    Does anyone know how to add custom sounds so that they can be used as message alerts? I can add ringtones without any problems but cannot seem to access sounds stored in 'My Ringtones' so that they can be used with alerts.
    Many thanks
    Post relates to: Treo 500v (Vodafone)

    Hi, many thanks for your response. I don't have the option to manage all of the sounds - if I access it via Start>Settings>Sounds, it lists the functions thus:
    Ring tone:
    Reminders:
    New email:
    New text message:
    etc
    and each has a sideways scrolling list, but only the 'Ring tone' option shows up the custom audio files stored in 'My Ringtones'.
    I am not sure how to search the OS to find sounds that are prefixed with "Alert", as if I can find the folder where they are stored, perhaps I can add more. Is there a Search function in Windows Mobile 6?

  • IPod touch email alert sound - any way to turn it OFF?

    The "settings > sounds" is no longer available in 2.0 update, so can't figure out how to get it to stop beeping after it checks for and loads new mail. Any ideas? thanks J.

    Okay, my iPod touch does the same thing. And one more more odd thing; when I receive an email while listening to music, the music volume dips, there's an odd sound in the background, and then the volume picks up again. This happens every time I receive an email. The only way I have figured to stop it at this point is to get into Settings, then General, then Sound Effects. If you turn off Sound Effects, I believe that you stop the audible mail alert. However, when you so that, you also turn off the clicky sounds when you type on the screen keyboard. Annoying.

  • Email Alert Sound working only sometimes...

    I just got my iPhone on Friday. I have the new mail alert switched to ON, but when the phone is in "sleep" mode, it doesn't make the sound, it just vibrates. I don't know if this is supposed to be normal, but I cant figure it out. All the other alerts seem to work fine. doesn't anyone know what is going on?
    Thanks,
    Bryan

    I couldn't have asked that any better - I have been wondering the same thing since Thursday. I have looked around and can't figure it out either. Anyone with advice - I'd love some direction.

  • Email alert sound is sporadic

    I'm on the 4S, and it seems that when I get an email (mobileme), only sometimes does it make an audible sound. And, sometimes the sound is louder at times than other times. Yes, I have sounds enabled, as well as vibrate, and I see the notification on the lockscreen, but sometimes no sound.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    No, they can't be changed presently. You can suggest this to Apple here:

  • Turn off email or turn off email alert sounds

    I was wondering if there is a way for the Black Berry program to send emails only during a certain time period. I’d like to stop them at about 10:00 PM and start back at about 7:00 AM if it can. But still get calls a text messages.

    do you have emails set up via BES or BIS?  depending on device you can go to options and then network and set data service to OFF and turn it back in the morning, this can be done only manually, cant specify time.

  • OS4: Can I change the incoming email notification sound???

    OS4: Can I change the incoming email notification sound???
    I installed OS4 but still cant seem to.
    HOW CAN I CHANGE MY INCOMING EMAIL ALERT SOUND???

    Apparantly Apple have yet to realize that people like to customize their handsets.
    I had an HP in 2001 and it had fully customized sounds.
    It also had the option of a calendar on the Wallpaper - one of the most important features of a business handset.
    OS4 on IPhone and yet the only way of someone getting these important features is to JB it. This is my 3rd Iphone and I won't be getting an IPhone 4, 5 or 6 until an OS update unlocks that wallpaper for a calendar.

  • New Email Notification Sound

    Hi,
    These Apple devices are getting a little popular. At my workplace I always hear the same old "ding" everytimes someone gets an email so a number of us reach for our devices to see which one it was for.
    We are up to iOS4 so I imagine it is a choice to not allow configurable notification sounds. What possible (sensible) reason can there be?! It isn't exactly a complext feature.
    The renowned Apple consistancy in operation is good but not for notifications. thats just confusing.

    You can change your email alert sounds through the use of a free app. Download Boxcar from the app store, and have it alert you when an email arrives with one of its sounds. You can then turn off the email received sound in the settings on the iPad.
    We do this in my house with 3 iphones and 2 ipads constantly dinging. Each person has a unique email arrival sound.

  • Alert Sounds don't sound

    After upgrading to OS 10.4.3 my alert sounds can no longer be heard. I checked Sound preferences (both Sound Effects and Ouput) and everything seems appropriately setup.
    No test sound is played when a new alert sound is chosen. The Help button does not generate any help.
    iTunes and QuickTime are audible as before. Feedback is provided when volume changes are made.
    There are other posts about sounds and OS 10.4.3 recently so there may be something in common.

    I am having a very similar trouble. My email alert sound stopped several days ago. Tonight I tried to fix it by going through the Sound control panel. I noticed that the "Play alerts and sound effects through:" pulldown was greyed out. I clicked on the Help icon, and a blank help window came up. I closed it and tried again, and the window wouldn't even come up.
    The Garage Band fix didn't work. I haven't tried a PRAM reset, because I thought we didn't have to do that with OS X. I'll try it in a minute.
    Over the past couple of weeks I've noticed a progressive degredation in my system, too. Simply opening a Finder window can set the beach ball spinning. Safari used to autofill commonly used blanks on forms, and it stopped doing that. Cookies have been disappearing too. I used to be able to turn on cookies long enough to get logged into my favorite web sites, and then turn the cookies off. Stored cookies would exist with my password data and I could browse my forums and shop without having the cookies turned on and accumulating unwanted ones. Now I find that I have to leave them on and constantly retype the password info.
    Any chance that we might be looking at an OS X bug, or even worse- the first of the OS X viruses?

  • Not getting email alert after shutting phone off

    Hi,
    I have a LG Alley. Ususally leave the phone on 24/7 but I've noticed that when I do shut it off and then turn back on my email alert sound doesn't work. I double check the settings and they are there. Eventually, after some time, the alert sounds do work. Anyone know why the alert sound doesn't just kick back in when the phone is turned on?

    I have a similar issue, except with a few quirks.
    My alert settings are set to make a noise and vibrate when I get a text. My silent switch is set to 'normal'. Sometimes, randomly, when I get a text, it will not make a noise; the screen lights up and shows the message, and then after a short delay it will vibrate.
    Similarly, I think I've noticed in silent mode, it sometimes just lights up and doesn't vibrate (which it is set to)
    Any ideas?
