IPhone 3G on Universal Dock will not make SMS notification sound, only vibe

When the phone is on the dock, none of the sounds for text messages are made, phone calls are, alarms are, but no text messages. Is anyone else experiencing this? It makes noises for calls, noises for reminders, but for SMS just vibrates.
Thanks.

Hi Randall,
If you haven't already, try resetting the iPhone by holding the Home & Sleep/Wake buttons until you see an Apple logo as described here: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=305743

  • My iPhone 4s will not make any sound! & Siri gone!

    My iPhone will not make any sound. No ringers, alerts, or even music from my library! I did a reset of all settings thinking it would fix the problem, however all that did was lose my Siri! Very frustrated. All the settings in my phone are correct, and the side button is in the up position. I am able to talk on the phone with no problems, but my speaker phone will not work. Its almost as if my speaker wont make noise?
    Not sure if anyone else has had this problem? If so how did you fix it?!

    Bose confirmed this in an email:
    Hello Mr. XXXXX:
    The iPod® Touch models are compatible with existing SoundDock® digital music system inserts. If your SoundDock system came with two universal inserts, then use the A insert for the 8GB and 16GB iPod Touch models.
    If your SoundDock system came packaged with five inserts, order a new set of universal inserts by emailing us the SoundDock serial number and color, your daytime telephone number, and UPS shipping address. We will send you a set of universal inserts at no charge.
    Thank you for contacting Bose Corporation.

    Make sure you're pushing it in far enough.
    I've had no troubles thus far.

  • I have an iphone 4 and my camera will not focus.  Has anyone else had this problem?

    I have an iphone 4 and my camera will not focus when I try to take a picture or a video.  Does anyone have any idea what could be wrong with it?

    Hi there jeri289,
    You may find the troubleshooting steps in the article below helpful.
    iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2802
    Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
    If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
    If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
    Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
    Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
    Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
    Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
    Try to remain steady while focusing:
    Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
    Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
    Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
    Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
    If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.
    Issue not resolved
    My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
    Contact Apple Support.

  • With a full screen application open, if you then open and close LaunchPad, the dock will not go away!

    This is especially annoying if you have hot corners for LaunchPad and accidentally open it with a full screen app open, because the Dock will not leave!  Try it: open any app in full screen, open LaunchPad with a gesture or hot corner, exit out of LaunchPad and the Dock will be at the bottom of the full-screen app, obscuring the bottow 10% or so of the screen.  Any fixes, or something to come on Apple's end?

  • I updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5s and now iMessage will not verify my email. It has said "Verifyng" since yesterday, but has not sent a verification email. I checked my iCloud settings for that email address and it shows "pending".

        I updated to iOS 8 on iPhone 5s and now iMessage will not verify my email address to use to send/ receive messages. It has said "Verifyng" beside it in settings since yesterday, but has not sent a verification email. I have also tried Adding it as a new email address several times, but get the same outcome.  I can still send/ receive texts from my phone number, just not from the email address.
         In my iCloud settings under Contact Information for that email address and it shows "pending".  When I select "Resend Verification Email" I get "Cannot Connect to iCloud".

  • When I get a phone call or text message it will not make the sound. Just vibrate. But the switch is on normal. When I change it to vibrate the volume thing will not show. Nor will my up volume up key work. Is there any way to fix it?

    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

    my iphone went black and it will not come back on even after i held the botons down for a min

    Hey dodie67,
    Thanks for the question. Sounds like your iPhone stopped responding to buttons, switches, or touchscreen input, so you'd want to go through the troubleshooting steps in the following article and see if that resolves the issue:

  • I have restored my iphone but camera shutter still will not open/work, i have restored my iphone but camera shutter still will not open/work

    I have restored my iphone but camera shutter still will not open/work

    Try closing the Camera app completely and see if then works when you re-open it : from the home screen (i.e. not with Camera 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Camera app to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the equivalent of a reboot.

But when I'm not calling out, the call unable to receive and it says that Out of Network Coverage Area.

    It was a very bad idea to post your email address where millions of people will see it. Expect your spam to increase exponentially, as well as the phishing attempts. It would probably be a good idea to change your password to a really strong one, and, as you have gmail, look into Google's two factor authentication.

  • My iphone has gone off and will not recharge or turn on again?

    My iphone has gone off and will not recharge or turn on again. What do I do to fix this?

    Try a Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.  You might need to hold the buttons for as long as a minute.
