How do I enable sound alert for messages

When I get a message it shows as a sient notification. Is there anyway to enable an Audi me alert

There are a couple of things for which to check here:
1.  Make sure that you have audio notifications enabled.  Go into Skype and choose "Settings" from the menu.  From there, choose Notifications and make sure that "Notification Sound" is checked.
2.  If you're still not hearing notifications for chat messages, make sure your phone is not on Vibrate or Priority Mode.  If you've got the Android 5.0 update on your G3, then we will obey the "Priority" notification setting for sounds and not play them on incoming chat messages, but the phone will ring audibly.  When you change the volume using the volume buttons, you can choose "All" instead of "Priority" below the volume slider and notifications should then come with audio.
Let us know if that makes a difference

  • No sound alerts for messages or phone calls since upgrade

    I too had no sound alerts for calls or messages since upgrading but then I discovered that the 'Do Not Disturb' option had been somehow switched on after I upgraded. If you have a moon icon at top corner of your screen that's what's happened. You need to go into Settings>DoNotDisturb and switch it off. It worked for me so hope it helps someone else.

    Look in the Notifications settings to see if the update turned them off there.  If they are turned on and you are still not getting alers on the lock screen, reset your phone. Hold down Home and Power buttons at the same time, wait for Apple logo to appear and wait for the phone to reboot itself.
    See if you get alerts with the phone locked.  If you still don't get alerts, do a Reset Network Settings reset, Settings => General => Reset => Reset Network Settings.  You will have to re-enter your wifi passwords.
    If this doesn't help do a Reset All Settings reset.  You won't lose any data or content , but the settings on the phone will all be reset to factory defaults and you will need to go in and turn the things you turned on and off on and off again.

  • Curve 9360 custom sound alerts for messages will not work. Tried EVERYTHING.

    I have a brand spanking new BlackBerry Curve 9360 that just arrived yesterday.  It is great apart from this very frustrating small prob.  I can not customise my message alerts for individual people in my address book.  When I click on "try it" only the LED button flashes and there is no sound or vibration.  I am trying to get the sound and vibrate to play as "active profile" but it just won't.  I can override it and have custom volume and vibrate that plays no matter what the profile but as I sometimes like to set my main profile to vibrate or silent, it won't do.
    So far, to fix it, I have tried:
    Wiping profile and sounds from the blackberry software
    Full factory reset
    Creating my own profile and using that instead of "normal" or any of the other preset ones
    Loads of battery pulls before and/or after any changes
    I have also had a few different people text me to make sure the problem isn't just the "try it" feature.  It isn't.  The sound that plays is always the default message sound for whatever the default profile is.
    If anyone can help it would be greatly appreciated
    Deb

    I have also experienced exactly the same problem.
    The profile is set on normal, with the ringer volume on 10, the ring tone has been selected, and I have also selected the option of the vibrator along with the ring tone.
    Now here is the problem, initially it rings and works perfectly, however it seems to automatically turn off the volume so the LED light keeps flashing, however there is not ring tone or vibration.
    If you select the "normal" profile or any other profile and change the ring tone or the volume, and click on the try it icon at the bottom, it still only flashes the LED, with no sound.
    Have tried everything that you have mentioned in your email, however still unable to rectify the issue. the only way to rectify is it to hard stop the BB, by pulling out the battery and restarting the Blackberry.
    Can anyone help or suggest what needs to be done ?

  • I have a new iPhone 5C, have the sounds alerts set up. But I'm not getting sound alerts for new voicemail, only the red circle on the screen.  How can I make the sound alert work?

    I have a new iPhone 5C, have the sounds alerts set up. But I'm not getting sound alerts for new voicemail, only the red circle on the screen.  How can I make the sound alert work?

    I have had this same problem for weeks now with my 4S.  I just got a new 5S after being extremely frustrated and the same thing - no sounds.  After searching posts all over, I couldn't find a solution. I just told my friend of the issue and he asked "Do you have the Do Not Distrub on?"  I didn't even know such a function existed.  Upon looking that was exactly the issue.
    To resolve, go to Settings> Do Not Disturb> Manual.  If it is green, turn it off.  You will now get phone calls and text alerts.
    This functionality is also on your quick access utility menu (slide up menu).  I assume this is how it was enabled on my phone.
    I will post on other sites since I searched for weeks for this solution and didn't see it anywhere.  Good luck!

    Hi All.
    I have this request.
    BODS 3.1 : How to trigger an email alert for the jobs on BODS server ?
    We have jobs scheduled on BODS running smoothly and absolutely fine.
    But to check, i am logging into the admin console and check for the jobs status.
    I would like to have an email to be received from BODS after each job is finished.
    It could succuessful. Or it could fail.
    Whatsoever, i wish to receive an email alert as soon as a job is finished.
    Can anyone advise me as to whether this could be made possible.
    And if yes, how this could be done.
    Thanks for your help in advance.
    In BOE CMC / for webi / schedule / we find an option to send email for a job success or a job failure.
    Is there any option similar to that in BODS ?
    Also would like to know :
    how to use the smtp_to or mail_to functions ?
    how to set up the smtp server for this ?
    thanks

    Hi.
    Since am new to this BODS. I need some help.
    I already have many jobs which are running absolutely fine.
    And when a job runs, and finishes, am able to see the trace saying
    e.g. :
    Job_abc is completed successfully.
    We got the smtp service activated for our test server.
    and we hae a group email id.
    I have put the details of the smtp server / ip address / and said apply restarted.
    The i created a simple test script as below :
    print (' Before email ' );
    smtp_to('abc@company_name.com', 'Job ' || job_name() ||' on ' || host_name() || ' has FAILED',
    ' the job has failed', 0, 0);
    print('After Email ');
    It does send a email to as per smtp_to whatever email is specified.
    But how to differentiate between a job success
    And a job which has failed.
    I wish to have a mail which says on the subject :
    'Job ' || job_name() ||' on ' || host_name() || ' has completed successfully'
    ==> IF it is a success
    OR
    'Job ' || job_name() ||' on ' || host_name() || ' has failed'
    ==> if it has failed
    How to make the system identify, whether
    to send a success message or a error message whatever
    Could anyone advise.
    thanks

  • No sound alert for incoming emails

    I lost  sound alerts for the incoming email messages into my yahoo mail  inbox since I upgraded to Mountain lion. I even made rule to play sound it but doesn't work!!! I have all the setting on. Apple please fix since this problem arose with Mountain Lion upgradation.
    On the other hand any communication done through the apple mail app doesn't save send items automatically. Apple email is poorly desigend and needs to be redesign or eliminated  completely.

    Thanks. I just talked to apple rep and we figured out that in system preference>sound effect> output volume, I had mute option checked which happened during upgradation to Mountain lion.  iI unchecked mute and now sound alert works. However the sent items are not being synchronized with web based yahoo email sent items.

  • Can i add a sound alert or message when someone comments on a pic of a photo stream when i am only another participant (not owner of the photstream)?

    Hi,
    How can i add a sound alert or message when someone comments on a pic of a photo stream when i am only another participant (not owner of the photstream)? Thank you. Joana

    Joana,
    that should be automatic.
    See: http://help.apple.com/iphoto/mac/9.4/#pht884a8908
    When you like or comment on a photo in a shared stream, a notification is sent to all the Apple devices of the photo stream’s creator and subscribers. You can delete comments you added to a photo by placing the pointer over the comment and clicking the Delete button that appears.
    Usually the problem is the other way round - how to prervent spamming all subscribers to a shared stream from being alerted to each comment on a photo in the stream. Quite a few subcribers have cancelled their subscriptions to shared streams, because they have continously been sent alert messages and could not disable them. It can get rather annoying - there is no way to silently add a few comments to photos and then send only one alert.

  • How do I remove an alert for a calendar item that has long since been deleted? and yet goes off mysteriously, un-deletably, and un-editably every single ****** week !!

    How do I remove an alert for a calendar item that has long since been deleted? and yet goes off mysteriously, un-deletably, and un-editably every single ****** week !!

    I have the same problem with my iPhone.  I set up a recurring calendar event for every Thursday.  That event is no longer happening during the summer, so I went in and chose one from the current month and selected Delete.  Then it gve me two choices, one of which was to Delete All Future Events of this one, and that's what I chose.  I figured, this way, I'll still be able to see the ones from the past, but won't have to see (or hear the alert) for the future ones.
    The following week, my phone alerted me to the appointment, and even showed it on the initial screen, even though it wasn't in the calendar.  I went in to the calendar and NOTHING was scheduled for that day.  So why is this happening?
    So I set up a new recurring event, for in the past, then went in and deleted all furture occurances, and it did the same thing... still alerted to an event that was no longer in the calendar.
    I hope somebody else has found a fix, or at least a reason for why this is happening.

  • How do I enable syntax highlighting for jspf files on Dreamweaver CS6 on Windows?

    I followed the instructions (which I modified for CS6) in this posting: http://blog.metameister.com/blog/2011/04/08/open-new-file-types-and-add-syntax-highlightin g-in-dreamweaver-cs5-on-window…
    but it did not work for CS6.
    How do I enable syntax highlighting for jspf files on Dreamweaver CS6 on Windows 7?
    cheers
    Marvin in Edmonton

    Ok, I figured it out after hunting for a few hours.
    Step 1. Add the File Type
    In Dreamweaver’s toolbar:
    Select Edit > Preferences; 
    under File Types / Editors, add .jspf to the line “Open in Code View:”.
    Step 2. Extensions.txt
    Add file type .jspf to the Extensions.txt files. There are two of these files:
    C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS6\configuration
    Step 3. MMDocumentTypes.xml
    Add jspf to the MMDocumentTypes.xml files. Open this file in Notepad or Text Editor. Do not modify the Dreamweaver configuration files within Dreamweaver.
    There are three MMDocumentTypes.xml files to be modified: 
    C:\Program Files (x86)\Adobe\Adobe Dreamweaver CS6\configuration\DocumentTypes
    C:\Users\mhaagsma\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration
    C:\Users\mhaagsma\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Dreamweaver CS6\en_US\Configuration\DocumentTypes\
    Step 4. Restart Dreamweaver
    Hopefully the file type will now be recognized and appear with syntax highlighting.
