IMessage notification alert tones are not working on my iPad ios 8.  Is this a know bug?

my iMessage settings are exactly the same on my iPad air as on my iPhone five, but the alert tones do not sound off when I get an iMessage. Is this a known bug with or without a fix? Is there a setting that is different on the iPad then on the iPhone that I am just overlooking?

Hi AppleUser543210,
If you are having issues with your iPad's notification alert sounds not functioning, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPad -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPad as a new device -

  • Alerts sounds are not working after upgrading to iOS 7.1.2

    Hi,
    I've noticed that all the alerts sounds are not working anymore after upgrading my iPhone 4S to iOS 7.1.2
    I’ve reviewed similar posts regarding the same issue; and it seems this is a common issue in iPhone 4S when upgrade to iOS 7.1.2.
    Apple, please Advise if there anything I can do to resolve the issue especially that my work deepens on the push emails and alerts that requires prompt response.

    I got this issue resolved.
    It caused due to some dirt in the charger slot; such dirt caused the phone to assume as if it is connected to a car kit and that is why it does not produce any sound except the Ringer and the Alarm.
    It has been fixed by cleaning the charger slot by toothbrush! with some
    drops of a cleaner.
    Do not do it by yourself, as it might be a risk; rather, let it to be done by an expert.

  • My ring and text tones are not working?

    Both my ring tone and text alert tone are not working. I'm only made aware I have a call or text message through the phone's vibration. I have checked all the 'Sound' settings and all appears to be fine and ringer volume slid to high.
    Do I need to reboot this phone for them to work as I'm not sure how to do this? I'm using iPhone 4 version 5.0.1
    Would I loose all my files and apps on my iPhone after rebooting?
    Appreciate any clear help and advice on this popular subject that is available.
    Best wishes

    Thank so much Ingo2711, your suggestion has solved my problem. I am so new to the iPhone I didn't realise it had a handy little mute button and it was infact switched onto 'mute'.
    And thank you for the rebooting advice too.
    Best wishes

  • HT5557 The ibooks dictionary works fine for my iPhone 5, but it does not work for my iPad 2. Is this fixable?

    The iBooks dictionary works fine for my iPhone 5, but it does not work for my iPad 2. Is this fixable?

    I went to the Audio store to see about getting a surround sound and the salesperson asked me why I wasn't using AirPlay, he said it was better than the Bluetooth, better quality. So I do have AirPlay on my Sony and I installed the app on my iPhone 5 but they can't find eachother.......when I try looking for my iPhone on my receiver it does not show it. The Sony display works through my TV, the set up screen is there but it says no devices found. Like I said, the Bluetooth finds the iPhone and works ok, but the AirPlay does not.....looking at the manuel it says that the AirPlay will recognize my device (iPhone 5) but it does not..........

  • I had to get a new keyboard and now the keys in the upper row are not working appropriately. How can I fix this problem?

    My keyboard stopped working so I went to the apple store to replace it with another one. Now I am back home and the keys at the very top are not working correctly (volumn  F12 shows the dashboard, F11 takes the screen up and away, F8 pause button shows spaces, etc.). What should I do to correct this problem - I assume I probably need to download some type of softwear but what? I have a Mac OS X  Version 10.5.8 desktop - 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo processor.

    All new keyboards need Snow Leopard 10.6.8 and above for full functionality.
    Rather short-sighted of Apple perhaps, but that seems to be a trend these days.
    I'm afraid the only fix is to upgrade to SL. Personaly, I'd take it back and get a refund and seek an older keyboard or a third-party one elsewhere.

  • My push notifications for Facebook are not working for the iPhone 5.

    All the sounds are working except for Facebook. I have enabled all the settings for the push notifications but they still do not work. I do get alerts but no sound. Please advise.

    We are all in the same situation. It is very annoying. We have to get people to let Apple and Facebook know. It is not my phones (I have a 4 and a 5), because Facely HD, which is an app that accesses Facebook, works fine as does everything on both phone (native functions, native apps and non-native apps).

  • Tones are not working while ringtone works

    Phone will ring and alarm clock works.  But, any tones associated do not work.  Vibrate is how I know I have a text message or email

  • ICloud and Photos app are not working anymore after updating iOS 8.0.2 !!!

    I've just upgraded iOS 8.0.2 with .ipsw file. It asked for my iCloud password in Set Up. It says it's wrong. So i skipped it.
    I tap iPhoto and it tells me to marge the photos to Photos app. It was going fine and then suddenly, it closed. Now i can't open the Photos app anymore. I've rebooted and deleted iPhoto app. I can't even open through Camera.
    I can't see my profile in iCloud (in Settings). It's keeping me the password. Its still wrong. I can't even turn off Find My iPhone to restore my iPhone. It says verification failed.
    I don't know what to do anymore. I still can use my iCloud on my Computer. I still can use everything and everywhere except on my iPhone.

    You are not alone. I got that issue also. I always reboot my phone or reset the network setting but it only work for a few hours.

  • Lighting cables and adapters are not working after the last iOS 7 update.

    Looking for some help from Apple here. After the last iOS 7 update, some of my lightning cables and adapters have stopped working.
    I have an iPhone 5 funning iOS 7.0.2.
    I have a car charger/FM RF transmitter that has worked like a charm for years. Because none of these have been made with a lighting connector, I've had a genuine Apple adapter on it since I bought my iPhone 5 a year ago. Never had a problem until the last iOS update. Now when I plug it in, not connection is registered. I've verified the charger is working by removing the adapter and plugging the old iPhone connecting into an iPhone 4 running iOS 6. I've also verified the adapter is working by plugging the charger with adapter into an iPad mini running iOS 6.
    I also have a Belkin USB car charger. This came with a black lighting cable. Also worked like a charm until the last update. Now, half the file when I plug it in, no conncetion is registered. The other half of the time, it says this cable is not supported but does not connect my phone or charge it. I've also verified that the cable is working by plugging it into an iPad mini running iOS 6.
