How do I get alerts to remain in the center of the screen after unlocking my iPhone in iOS 7?

The whole point of alerts, according to Apple, is to let you know about important events by remaining in the center of the screen until you acknowledge them. So why, when my iPhone 4s is locked and I receive an alert, does absolutely nothing appear when I unlock my phone? I use OmniFocus2 for everything, but the app isn't useful to me without forcing me to acknowledge the alerts I've set up for my to-do's. I've messed with all the notification options (like removing from lock screen), but I simply cannot believe that the only way Apple would allow their alerts to work properly is by forcing me to keep my phone from auto-locking indefinitely.
Can anyone help?

I just came from using a BlackBerry Z10 and just got a iphone 5S. I have to say that this is the most ridiculous issue i am having to deal with as well. I use a password for my lock screen and if im not constantly on my phone i will miss a text msg. theres nothing from the lock screen to show you of a missed text or etc and also i dont care that i can look at notifications pull down. that is useless for the common person who doesn't live on the phone. There's no led to help this issue another major negative for me and this issue as well. So pretty much if i dont check my phone periodically i will miss something for sure. Cant believe this phone is considered the flagship of phones, there are SIMPLE issues with iphones that many other company's have fixed YEARS ago. Seriously would a LED light really hurt that bad to put on?! Get a clue apple!
--sorry for the rant but i have been looking everywhere online and trying many issues to fix this with no luck.

    try disabling email scanning for incoming mail.
    One of the last things that occurs is the mail server and Thunderbird sign off on "where we are up to" and Thunderbird stores this state information in the popstate.dat file in your profile (there is one in each POP mail account folder). If the anti virus, or you for that matter, end the conversation a few seconds early that hand off does not occur and the popstate is not stored.

    As long as they are already ticked in your iTunes then yes. Just to check do a sync and as long as everything stays the same you are good to go.

  • I have 3 iphones, an ipod touch and an Ipad on the same itunes account.  should I have a different account for each device?  If so how do I get all my purchases, like music on all the devices?

    You can sync as many devices as you want to the same iTunes account, there is no limit. You can have the same content on each device or different content, the choice is yours. iTunes will keep everything straight, by device, including separate backups. I'd suggest giving each device a unique name, to make things easier.

  • How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5?

    How do I get text to flow from one page to the next in Pages 5 with the Maverick system?

    What may be overlooked in Pages v5 is the notion of combining Text Boxes via the Menu > View > Show Arrange Tools. When you select two Text Boxes, an extra panel unfolds at the bottom of the Arrange Tools window. Uncheck one Text Box and this panel abruptly disappears.
    One can achieve text flow effects between Text Boxes differently based on how one positions the Text Box overlap, and choice of effect above. Though not the accustomed flow found in Pages ’09 v4.3, flow does occur. Consider the possibilities of combining a Shape and a Text box to cut an irregular Text box.
    If I create two Text Boxes and position them side by side with outline touching and choose Unite, this creates one larger Text Box and text flows across and down. On the otherhand, if I overlap the upper left corner of a lower Text Box over one above and to the left, then choose Union, pasted text fills the first Text Box and then flows across and down into the other box. Here is a Union example:
    Intersect will leave a small Text Box where the two overlap, so not much value there. Subtract will cut a chunk out of one Text Box that is the size of the overlapping piece of the second Text Box:
    And Intersect will leave an island in the center where the two Text Box overlap, with flow jumping over this bridge.
    Clearly, this is not what we were accustomed to in the past, but with imagination, style, and layout tuning, it does offer alternative Text Box creativity and layout. Of course, there is the option of simply returning to the previous Pages version for true Text Box linking that most will want to use.

    I don't have the answer to this question, and yes, I checked the "I have the same question, too" box.. But so did 30 some other people.. So, I've scoured the web and looked high and low into the Apple TV device.. HOW CAN I DO IT? My playstation 3 did it[.. My WDTV box top I've had for 2 years can do it! My Smart Vizio TV [netflix app built in to the tv] can do it! My Apple ipad can do it. My iPhone can do it.. So, can my Apple TV do this? Or Not?

  • How do I get my calendar on my ipad to sync with my calendar on my iphone 4s?

    How do I get my calendar on my ipad to sync with my calendar on my iphone 4s?

    I've done all of these things, and nothing is working. I understand how the cloud is supposed to work, and I understand how to sync via itunes. For some reason, the calendar is the only thing that isn't syncing.
    I have support on the phone now. We've figured out that if I make a calendar entry on icloud from my PC, it follows through on my phone and ipad. Same if I make the entry on my iphone - it follows to icloud on my PC and ipad. But when I make the entry on the ipad, it doesn't follow through to my iphone or icloud on my PC.
    I've had a tech walking me through all of this for about a half hour now. Can't figure it out. He's checking with his senior tech, has me on hold right now. It's looking like I may have to make a trip to my nearest Apple store, 45 minutes away.

  • We have a corporate iPad in our auto showroom to show guests how to use features on their vehicles. Someone locked it with their account. It was not an employee. How can I get in? I did a restore of the software already?

    Gather up the proof that the dealership is the original purchaser of the iPad,
    and take the iPad & that proof to a physical Apple store for possible assistance.
    It is highly suggested that you make a genius bar appointment to avoid delay
    at the store:

    Once the problem is resolved, you may wish it use Guided Access to limit

  • How do I get PDF forms to export to excel in the desired order?

    How do I get PDF forms to export to excel in the desired order?
    Here is what I have done:
    As taken from another post:
    Choose Forms > Manage Form Data > Merge Data Files Into Spreadsheet.
    In the Export Data From Multiple Forms dialog box, click Add Files.
    In the Select file Containing Form Data dialog box, select a file format option in File Of Type option (Acrobat Form Data Files or All Files). Then locate the form files that you want to merge into the spreadsheet, select them, and click Select.
    Repeat the previous step to add form data files that are in other locations, as needed.
    Click Export. Then select a folder and filename for the spreadsheet, and click Save.
    In the Export Progress dialog box, click either View File Now to open the spreadsheet file or Close Dialog to return to Acrobat."
         The problem now is that Adobe populates Excel in ABC order of the form, based off of the name of each box in the form. For example, if my form has three text boxes, named A, B, and C, then Adobe will export to Excel as such:
    Row 1 =         A                              B                              C
    Row 2 =         data entered             data entered              data entered
    where 'data entered' is whatever the user typed into the form boxes. But what if I want a different order for exporting, and I don't want to rename my text boxes? What if I want:
    Row 1 =         C                              B                              A
    Row 2 =         data entered             data entered              data entered   ?
    Is there a way to do this in acrobat x or xi?
    Thanks

    I don't have time to test right now, but there was a change with Acrobat 10 where it exports according to the tab order, which you may have to set manually, so give that a shot. Otherwise, you'll have to process the file after it's exported if you need the fields in a particular order. This wouldn't be too difficult to do with something like a VBS or JS script in Windows.
