Email and text Notifications when on a call

Is there a way to stop email and text notifications when I am on a phone call? I have a long email alert and message tone, and when I'm on a call and they go off, it's so loud and long I can't hear who I'm talking to.
They can't hear the alert but it goes on for so long they waffle on and I miss a lot of conversation. Why is this not automatically disabled or set to silent when taking a call?

Again,we shouldn't have to. I've been an iPhone user since 3G and its taken years just to get simple things that even 10 year old nokias can do. Since we can now use our own alert tones etc, they can't even get them to be quiet when on a call. I've no need to know I've received a text or email when I'm on a call.
Always seems like apple don't think things through in the rush to get their gadgets out. Surely this is an easy fix that could have been sorted by now, there are enough complaints about it.

When on a call my email and text notification still come through how do i stop this

How do I stop my email and text notifications whilst making a phone call?

Well, Rich, here we are in 2014 and this is still a problem. Apparently, Apple doesn't care what we think about this annoyance.

When I am paired with my bluetooth in the car; my email and text notifications interrupt the stereo

Email and text messae notifications

I purchase a ringtone. It only shows up in the ringtones for the phone. I would like to use it for email and text notification. How do I set it up?

From the Home screen, select Applications and Email.
Touch an account to view it, then touch Menu and Account settings.
Touch fields to configure the account:
Notification settings:
– Email notifications: Enable or disable alerts in the Status Bar.
– Select ringtone: Choose a ringtone to use for new email alerts.
– Vibrate: Enable or disable vibration with new email alerts.
Make sure that ringtones are saved in the proper folders. You can view the folders on the device by connecting the device to the PC. Ringtones that you want to use should be in the ringtones folder.
Connect the device to a computer using the supplied USB cable.
Select Menu.
Select Notifications.
Select USB connected.

From File Explorer / Finder on the computer.
Removable Disk (X represents the SD Card installed in the device. This name may vary.
Use the computer to organize the files into the proper folders.

New Z10 Random reboots and text notifications STILL

June 13th I upgraded from a Torch to the Z10. 3 days later, it was randomly rebooting about 4 times a day. I went through a wipe and reinstall and it seemed to work for about a week and then it started with the random rebooting as well as telling me I had texts when I didn't, and telling me every single day that there was a software upgrade available for the very same OS I already had on the phone!
I took it into Rogers and because it was past 2 weeks my options were dismal so I went with the free option. I had them send it in to be fixed. I just picked it up today and haven't even had it back 4 hours. I just got it back to where I wanted it preference wise and blammo! Random reboots and text notifications when there are none.
My options from here? Send it in AGAIN, or pay a $120 deductible through my protection plan for a 'new' phone (= refurbished - I was told they cannot guarantee me it would be brand new), or pay for the phone outright (in the neighborhood of $600) and then start a new plan for a different brand of phone (and yes, I will convert to the other side if this doesn't get resolved properly).
So frustrated because I feel it's extremely unfair to have to pay to own a device that doesn't even work just to get out of my contract (this is my provider but if they aren't able to get their money back from BB then why would they give me mine back?)... especially given that I received it just over a month ago and already had to send it out for a repair that didn't even work!
HELP!? I've tried everything... I'm SO disappointed and frustrated. I've been a loyal BB customer for over 5 years. This is about to end if there is no resolution. I need a phone I can rely on.
Thank you in advance to the powers that be - may they have mercy!

There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage. There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

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

For Gmail it is: open Gmail > menu > settings > your gmail address > notifications check box is unchecked.
There are some additional notification options for labels too.

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?

My iPhone no longer gives me audible alerts for email and text messages. Just stopped. Help.

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?

So you're not getting any data transfer to device, except when Google Maps is running?

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 back

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.)
