How do I turn off sound for mail notifications?

Just got my first iPhone (I know, welcome to the 21st Century). I've had Android before this. I have it synced to my work e-mail, but I don't want a sound playing every time I get a work e-mail, because then my phone annoyingly chirps all day at work, when I already get an alert on my computer for the new mail. I only want to be able, when away from the office, to do a quick check and see that I have a new e-mail.
In Sound, I selected "None" for New Mail, both for the Alert Tone and the Vibration. In Notification Center, "Mail" shows up in the "Do Not Include" list. Yet still, my iPhone plays a tone every single time a new e-mail comes in. What am I doing wrong?

Settings > Notification Center > Mail > Select the mail account (if more than one) > Alert Sound > None

  • How do I turn off ALLnotifications for mail

    I have an iPhone 5S. It is running ios7. I just added my email account today to "Mail." I cannot turn off notifications.  The alert style is set to None. The Badge App Icon is slid to off. The app is in the "Do Not Include" section in Notifications. The alert type is set to "vibrate only" ONLY because there is NO OTHER OPTION!  I want NOTHING!  No alerts at all! No sound no vibrate no nothing. 
    WHY WHY WHY i there not an option for "None" on the vibration setting.  You will be my hero if you can (honestly) tell me I am missing something and how to fix it.  I am a very light sleeper; the vibration, even "quick" will bother me. PLEASE HELP!!!

    Are you just referring to while you are sleeping? You can use the Do Not Disturb function that will only let phone calls through from favorites if that is what you are worried about.
    Or, for what you are talking about, when you go to Settings>Sounds>New Mail>one selection is for Vibration. Click on that and then scroll down to the bottom and None is a choice.

  • How can I turn off sound for a single application?

    So I'm playing iTunes while browsing the web. I come to a webpage with some really annoying Macromdia Flash content. Lots of noise. I'd like to turn the sound off for my browser (Firefox) without turning off iTunes. Similar problem occurs when I'm playing games ... I'd sometimes like to be able to play my own music instead of the game soundtrack. So I'd like to be able to tell the game to be silent without turning the sound of my Mac off completely.
    On my Windows XP machine, whatever application currently has control of the sound is the only one that can make noise. On the Mac the sounds layer together. That's much better in the case of, for example, e-mail app signaling that new mail has arrived. But it is really annoying for the two cases I mentioned above.
    Is there any way in the MacOSX operating system to control the volume for a particular application? Is there any other sound control software that folks know about that I should consider acquiring?

    Kinda funny... I found this article while searching for an answer to my question:
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93610
    At the very end of the article, it mentions the "bug" that only one app on Windows can play direct sound at a time. That's exactly the "feature" I'm looking for on the Mac. Funny how one person's bug is another's feature.

  • How do i turn off sound and text notifications?

    I find both the text and sound notifications very annoying. I do not play games or do anything other than work on this computer. When I unchecked the "show a notification" and "play a sound" boxes, the notifications and sounds do not turn off. I also prepared a 5 second sound file of silence and checked the "Play a Sound" and "use the following sound" boxes with the name of the silence in the required field. Nothing has worked. I don't like being disturbed when I work. I have done the checking and unchecking before restarting and also starting the computer up after a complete shut down.

    If you unchecked the option in Thunderbird then I doubt that is where the notification is coming from. MACs are notorious for supplying an additional notification. I would check your operating system for the source of the notification.

    How can I turn off imessage for just one of my contacts? Me and my husband just upgraded (both had iphone 4), I got the iphone 5s and he got he note 3. All my text to him automatically send as a imessage. Ive tried to delete his contact and then went back in and reentered it but that doesnt work.

    Have your husband text the word "stop" to 48369. This should take his number out of the iMessage system.
    Go into your settings under messaging and make sure the box to send as an SMS if iMessage is unavailable is checked.
    Hopefully this will get your messages sending/receiving to each other.

    how do I turn off icloud for my music in iphone?

    What exactly do you mean here...there's really nothing to turn on/off. Your purchased music is simply available for download, directly on your device, if not already on your device. If you don't want to download it, then don't.

  • HT2978 how do you turn off genius for apps ios 6 pleasssss help my appstore keeps on crashing

    how do you turn off genius for apps ios 6 pleasssss help my appstore keeps on crashing

    What you are saying is true but it will not always work. The aap store is dead. Wen I go to the fret urged page I see a white screen. I should be able to scroll down to the bottom and select View Apple ID but can't. This is on my wife's iPad and she thought after she upgraded to iOS 6.0 when it prompted her to turn on Genius that's what caused the trouble and she wanted to turn off Genius. NO CAN DO in App Store.
    To turn off Genius I had to go to Settings > iTunes & App Stores > Apple ID xxxxx then click view Apple ID then I can turn Genius off and on.
    But the did not fix the problem with the App Store which is still dead.

  • How do I turn off all of the notifications? They are so annoying.

    How do I turn off all of the notifications on iPad mini? All of them at once. They are so annoying. And it's annoying to go to preferences and put off the notifications for every app. When I instal any app it asks me - do you want to recieve notifications? I say no, but almost every app does the notifications.
    P.S.
    I wish to **** someone in apple for this annoying thing. Please tell me how to turn this annoying thing off.

    Settings>Notification Center>INCLUDE>Turn off everything

  • How do I turn off HP Sure supply notification pop-ups?

    Hi,
     How do I turn off HP Sure Supply notification pop-ups? They are constant and annoying. I buy HP inks from a different supplier, please help.
    Liz

    Hi @lh39,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums! I understand you would like to turn off the HP Sure Supply notifications, you are using a different brand of cartridges and keep getting the pop up.
    1. Start Menu
    2. Control Panel
    3. Devices and Printers
    4. Highlight your OJ 8600 (Click on it)
    5. You should now notice at the top of the devices and printers box there is a Print server properties tab (see pic below)
    6. Once in the print server properties please click on the Advanced tab
    7. Make sure ALL the boxes are unchecked (see pic below)
    8. Click Apply
    Please keep in mind that this will not turn off essential printer messages, notifying you of problems such as lack of ink or paper jams; it turns off messages notifying you of the completion of a print job or low ink warnings. Essential printer messages are built into the firmware of the printer itself and cannot be disabled.
    I got this helpful information www.ehow.com
    If you are still getting the error message, use genuine HP ink cartridges to avoid the pop up.
    I hope this helps, please let me know if you require more assistance.

  • How can I turn off sound controll whele on the Satellite A200

    How can I turn off the external sound controll in front of laptop - the wheel? It does not work, sound volume is permanently muted.
    OS: MS Windows XP
    Thanks

    Thank you Jaba,
    it is Toshiba Satellite A200 Series. Drivers, its configuration and configuration of operating system is OK. The wheel is mechanical damaged, so that is the point. I have to disable its function in operating system. But where can I disable it? I have tried to uninstall Toshiba utilities (controls, hotkeys), reinstall drivers. I have tried to find an option in BIOS, there was no one.
    btw: I am a linux administrator, but I have advanced knowledge of windows systems so you can be short.

  • How can I turn off ring for notifications e.g. messages but not for calls?

    Simple question:
    Is there a combination of settings where I can turn off sounds and vibrate for notifications e.g. whatsapp, facebook but still have it vibrate for calls.
    E.g. if its in my pocket I'd prefer not to keep getting vibrations, but it would be necessary to know if someone is calling
    Thanks

    i dont know about whatsapp or other 3rd party apps 0 they may have setting options to do what you want - but for text messages and Facebook posts you can go to Settings/Sounds and set the sound for those 2 things to None

  • How do you turn off Verizon voice mail?

    I have an answering machine, I would like to turn off Verizon voice mail so that all unanswered calls go directly to my answering machine.  The tech that installed my service said it was possible, but the directions he gave me led to a dead end.  Does anyone know how to turn off Verizon voice mail?  Is there a way to do this on-line or via the telephone (without having to contact a representative)?

    Since the Verizon Voicemail will answer calls to you number when you are using your phone, a second incoming call to your number while your own answering machine is taking a message WILL BE forwarded the the Verizon Voicemail system --possibly giving you recorded messages in 2 places. Note that each increase in the ring count will add 6 seconds to the amount of time it takes to forward the call to the Verizon Voicemail system.
    If you really don't what the  Verizon Voicemail system which can handle multiple calls simultanteously (something you own answering machine cannot do), your only option is to phone Verizon's business office and request that they remove the Verizon Voicemail service from your line.
