Email notification icon

I have an icon on my screen indicating that I have an email message. I've cleared all my email messages and searched in all of the other folders (thinking there was a stray voicemail, missed call message etc.) but there is nothing in any of the folders. Why does this icon stay on my screen? How do I find out why it is there? I've used my BB for some time now and have never had this problem.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Tips for clearing that unread message... try them in order.
If you have a rogue New Message icon on your Homescreen, or a negative count (-1), any one of these solutions could clear it, or reset it to zero:
Try these options:
* Open your main Messages folder and highlight today's date, click the menu key and select Mark Prior Opened.
* Hard Reset the BlackBerry by holding ALT, CAP (right Shift key), and DEL (or with the BlackBerry powered ON, remove the battery and reinserting the battery)
* View Messages > Saved Messages
* View Messages > View Folders, check each folder (missed calls, SMS in and out boxes, MMS in and out boxes, Saved, browser, phone logs etc)
* Scroll to top of message folder, over the date heading, click or press menu to MARK PRIOR OPEN
* Change your theme and see if it persists, and change back to your desired theme. (Options > Theme > select.)
* Connect to Desktop Manager > Backup/Restore > Advanced. On the right-hand pane is the list of data on your device. Scroll to the email messages database and highlight it, then below, select CLEAR. This will clear your device of all messages.
* Wipe and reload your OS.

Email notification icon won't disappear

Dear Nokia Team,
I use my 5800XM to read my emails on my Gogglemail-Account via Mail for Exchange.
I got the common problem, that the "new mail"-notification icon on the top-right corner of the screen won't disappear, although all emails ar marked as read and my mail-inbox doesn't count more then 100 mails.
This thread says, that the only way around this issue is to hard reset the phone. I did a hard reset on my phone an everything seemed to work just fine, but the issue returned after a few days.
This bug is really annoying - please help me!
Regards,
Ch.

Options > Advanced > Service Books... find and locate the TWO entries related to that account, one each for [cical] and [cimime].

Email notification icon on taskbar

I'm fairly certain I already know the answer to this, but I'll ask anyway. Is there an app that will put email, IM and missed call symbols on the taskbar? I have not seen anything at the app store, but the internet is full of jailbreaker software that does exactly that.
My concern is, does jailbreaking the iPhone (4s) kill the warranty? Do I have to do that in order to get the phone to do what fundamentally should be a given?
Are there any other options?
Thanks

Nothing for the task bar other than jailbreak apps. Yes, it voids your warranty.

Hide the Email notification in Email icon

I configured 2 email Accounts in my ipad2
one for the Work.
Another for the personal Account(Gmail)
I like to hide the email notification for un-read mail from my personal account(Gmail) (Even if I fetch the data "Manually" from the advanced Option) and not for my Work Account.
Any help ..

Thanks for the reply dia. I don't want to turn off the entire email notification. I want to turn off only for my personal account not for my work.
Is there is a way to do this.
Thanks in advance.

LED flashing light and email notifications!

i just got the curve 9300 and before had the curve 8520 and the flashing LED is so dim i can barely see it on my new one!
i have the phone on silent at work and use the LED to tell when i have a notification and i cant even see it in daylight hardly.
is there any way to make the red light flash up brighter like on the older model?
my sister has the new bold and hers is fine and bright.
Ive got the free bebuzz app and even when i select my fave contact as BRIGHT pink it is still really dim light.
Also i have my hotmail account set up on my bb.
When i get a new email the notification icon appears at the top but i cant view the email in my hotmail box only if i go into the "messages" icon. this isnt how it was before either!
HELP?

so do they not all have a dimmer LED than other models then?
I do not have a 9300 device on hand. I have used one and tested one, and played with. The LED flashing was fine, with nothing less bright about it that I would have noticed or made me remember "oh this is dim".
misscandypop wrote:
you think its a fault on mine?
I don't know that, hence my suggestion to drop by where you purchased it and check another 9300 LED for comparison. There could certainly be some "personal preference" on this that you think it's not bright enough to you, but another 9300 might be brighter. There could some fault of your device. Do I think it's a fault on yours... I don't know. I haven't seen yours.
I'd also suggest that you UNinstall BeBuzz for now, completely uninstall, reboot your 9300 and test the LED from the native opertaing system settings.

Facebook -Push & email Notifications not working since u/g to v5.1

Is anyone else experiecning issues with setting up new Push notification for facebook on their iPhone?
I have iPhone5 running iOS 6.0.1 and upgraded to Facebook Version 5.1.
(I also have the older version of Facebook within iTunes on my mac and if I re-install this the same thing happens)
From within the Facebook app, BookMarks>Account Settings> Notifications> Manage Push Notifications.
When I try and check a box to enable a notification the tick doesn't stay but I get a message "Changes Saved". This happens when I select one box or when I try to select multiple boxes at once to check. I think that there may be a bug within this Facebook App?
Can anyone else using Facebook give this a try and see what happens for them?
On Facebook.com if I try and enable Email Notifications the same things happens there.
(The only time that I receive a notifcation is via the world icon when i'm in the app or on the FB.com)
I have reported this to Facebook but would also appreciate your answers of what could be causing this.
Thanks
Steven

Hello -
It looks like you have two problems. The first problem with respect to email is that you do not have a "from address" specified in the server properties. I believe that is the address that the mail component is complaining about.
Also -> you seem to have a problem where the a backend Form Manager component is failing to retrieve information for that particular task (this error: Lock obtain timed out). hopefully after resolving the first issue above this will cease.
Let us know how it goes!

Disable email notification of changes of events in iCal?

I have a shared calendar that some of my colleagues subscribe to on iCal. Whenever I make a time change to an event or add a new event on my shared iCal, one of my colleagues gets an email notification about it (sometimes he's getting 10 emails a day about my iCal). Is this a setting I can change on my end or is it something that he needs to change. (BTW - I am not getting any of these emails)
Thanks so much!
Lauren

Hi Lauren. I think I figured this out.
I share my calendar with my wife and two kids. One kiddo was upset he got so many calendar changes. The other didn't get any emails. From what I found, your colleague needs to do this in iCloud (I hope this is how you share calendars or I'm wrong!).
Once your colleague logs in to his iCloud account and goes to his calendar, click on the green 'broadcast' icon to the right of YOUR calendar (your calendar should be listed on the far left side of his iCloud calendar window). Once they do this, a pop-up window should appear and a check box at the bottom of the window says 'Email me when this calendar changes'. Uncheck that and they shouldn't get any more emails when you change times on your calendar. The downside is I don't think they'll get an email alert when you create an event as well.
I hope this helps.

How to cancel email notifications ?

I wish to stop receiving email notifications from mozilla

Click on the Profile link in the top right under the search box. Now click on the "My Account" link also in the top right to bring up the User Preferences page. Select "My Watches" to list all threads that you are notified of replies for. If there is anything listed there, select them by clicking in the check-box, then click on the "X" icon to remove them.
Edit: They don't appear to be listed there anymore. You can cancel them individually. On a thread that you receive notifications on, there is a link on the right hand side to stop receiving notifications for that thread.

One Email Notification to Rule All Emails

Coming from a OG Moto Droid to Bionic so everything has been pretty thumbs up with this new phone. I did notice what seems to be an oversite from the designers/coders. If you sync a exchange email account and a POP email (like I do) or probably any two email accounts (except Gmail), all email (again except Gmail) gets assigned the same email notification ringtone. This is pretty annoying on a phone that was delayed to market, and cost me $300. Hopefully this is just an oversite by someone but I wanted to make sure I pointed this out in an official forum so that it can be fixed in future updates.
Of course if anyone has a solution I'm all ears...would love to hear two different ringtone notifications for my two different email accounts. Right now they are all getting the "WORK EMAIL!" alert. I just confirmed that this is an issue at the store, my OG Moto did this very easily but for some reason (while I get two different icons notifications in the status bar) the ringtone alert has been combined for all non Gmail accounts.
Thank you for any help you can provide.

BionicDroider, thanks for posting and congrats on your new device! I understand why you would want to have separate email notifications for your work and personal email accounts. This is not something that was just overlooked or a design flaw for the Bionic. This is how Android is designed. Any emails in the default email application will have the same notification sound. You can try 3rd party mail applications from the Market for other options.
This is not the way Android is designed, my ORIGINAL DROID could perform this simple (but important) function and is a total step backward. My 4G Dual Processor Machine to Rule All Machines can't tell the difference between my email accounts? This a totally BOGUS response and very disapointing. This machine can do better and I expect this to be fixed.
Thanks to the other forum members for suggesting apps to fix this. Fortunately this is an open platform so the market can correct this.

5800 email notifications

Anybody else having the same problem -
I download new email headers either automatically, or by connecting to my two mailboxes individually, the email notification on the home screen appears and won't go away - the flashing white button keeps going too - and won't go until I've downloaded and read / deleted every email. I've tried switching off 'new email notifications' but all it does is stop the message coming up on the home screen - the icon still pops up and the button still flashes!
It used to do this and then go away if I started and then cancelled downloading one of the emails - letting it know I'd got the message, but now won't go away until they're all downloaded and read, or after a reboot.
any advice appreciated
cheers.

Thank you, razmee209! I must have checked everything 1,000,000 times, but when I just rechecked settings - notification - mail, I now see that Alerts -- both Show in Notification Center and Show on Lock Screen -- were turned off. Can't believe I missed that, so THANK YOU!

How to set email notification on home page lock screen on iphone 4s . Settings did not work, what am I missing?

I have a iphone 4s. I cannot get any email notifications on the home page/ lock screen. Also to find out if i have mail i have to press on the email icon and it will update , then it will show i have mail. I talked to a verizon technician and went trough all the settings . He suggested to reset the settings to default , if that does not work i need to replace the phone. Any suggestions ? Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Miri

What are you rmail settings? Sounds like manual pull versus push, is this correct? If your email provider does not offer "push" mail like gmail or iCloud then change from manual pull to hourly or the interval you prefer; more frequent can degrade battery performance.
Also, go to Settings > Notifications and select "Mail" and move "view in lock screen" to on to see message previews in the lock screen.

Email notification - how to change?

I have a data only 8330 and can't figure out how to change the email notification sound. Right now, all it does is vibrate. I was hoping I could mess around with it a bit and get it to ping or something. Also, is there a way to assign a different sound to different email accounts? Thanks in advance!!

(some older models and OS 4.1 and below will not have the "Advanced" step--if Advanced is not present go directly to Step 4 below).
4. Select the profile you wish to edit. (Loud, Vibrate, Quiet, Normal (default), Phone Only, Off)
Note: on the 8100, 8800, and 8300 models: Do not click the trackball. Instead, click the menu key to the left of the trackball).
