Iphone 4 plays email tone in ear speaker while on phone.  How do I turn off alert sounds when on phone?

When I am on a phone call and I receive a new email it plays the email alert through the ear piece and it is very loud and I am unable to hear the person I am speaking with.  I NEED to be able to turn off this notification when I am on a call only.
How is this done?
thanks

I could, but that would defeat the purpose of what I am trying to accomplish.  The point is to set it one time and forget it.  Also, with my email tone going off I have turned the phone to silent and the email tone blares out until it is done.  ***, shouldn't turning it to silent turn it to silent? 
What I want to accomplish is when I am on my phone the only noise out of my phone I want to hear is the other caller!

    That's the most stupid thing. It may work but the phone shouldn't be going off in your ear while in use from the start.

    Go into settings - hit sounds - scroll down to text tone - and click none. You can even have it still vibrate but just not make a noise.

  • How do you turn off the touchpad when playing a fu...

    I've had my N97 Mini for a while now. Its pretty good overall but I've encountered one constant problem that keeps occurring when I enter a full screen game. I've recently installed Real Football Manager 2010 by Gameloft, the game is made for n97i and is suppose to be played full screen. When ever I start the game, a annoying touchpad pops up and blocks half the screen. How do you turn this off???? Is there another way to solve this problem???
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

  • What is my iphone making a sound (like a turn on sound) when I turn it on....never happened before!!!  How do I turn off this sound?

    Not sure whats going on today...why is my Iphone making a sound when I turn it on...like a beep noise...it never happened before...how can I turn it off???

    Does a Reset work? Mostly unlikely! [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. When the screen goes blank then power ON again in the normal way.] It is 'appsolutely' safe!

  • How do I turn off the Ipod Charging Tone?

    Firstly please don't say by turning down the sound slider because if I do I can't play the music on my ipod whilst it's charging.
    Right the situation is that my iPod touch is connected via usb in my car so I can play music on the move, also as a bonus my iPod is charging at the same time, but here's the problem because it is charging not only do I get the music from the iPod I also get the annoying charging tone through the speakers. I can't find a setting for this specific tone in the settings, and searches would suggest that it can't be turned off. I do hope this is not the case becasue if it is it's madness. Also if I connect via aux cable if the usb is connecting ie the iPod is charging I still get the charging tone trilling it's merry way.
    How can I turn off this tone. I know I can disconnect the usb ie stop the charging but that defeats to object as I then gradually use up the power meaning on long journeys I have to either dispense with the iPod or put up with the tone. Also when I get to my destination instead of having a fully charged iPod I am already down on power.
    HELP?

    Okay, well I'm still not aware of any iPod which repeats the charging tone. Have you checked in the Connector recess of your iPod to make sure there is no muck in there, or that there is no damage to the connector pins? This is because I still think that the connection between the cable, dock or whatever and the iPod is not staying "made". In other words, the connection is disconnecting and reconnecting and every time it reconnects, the beep sounds.
    Can you watch the iPod's display? When charging, the battery symbol shows the lightning bolt or, when full, the plug in the battery. Does that change to the battery only just before the charging beep? If so, that suggests that the connection is being repeatedly broken and re-made. Also check the cable (just in case).
    If you cannot solve this I think there are two options available to you.
    Ask any of your friends (who have an iPod Touch with the same iOS version on it) if their iPod does the same as yours; if they are aware of a setting for this and if so, how to turn it off, or; 
    Make an appointment at the Genius bar of your local Apple store and see if they can sort this out.
    Like you, I do not see the "change with buttons" option mentioned by kartabyaa, although I only have iOS 4.2.1 on my Touch. (I don't believe the iOS version is different to mine in this respect, but if you ask someone with the same iOS version as you, that should help confirm or refute what the iPod can and should do.)

    Can my Apple TV 3 play music through an AirPlay speaker while I mirror my iPhone to the Apple TV?

    bluetooth only support bluetooth keyboards on the appletv

    Bluetooth support for Apple Wireless Keyboard (requires Apple TV software version 5.2 or later)

    if you can find a device which take in optical audio from the Apple TV and make it bluetooth to the bluetooth speaker then suppose it would work
    but since it would need to be configured it would need controls or a webserver like a router has so very expensive

    Try plugging it up to your computer and launching iTunes and either resetting it to factory settings or resetting to last sync. Hopefully it just noticing it's plugged up to iTunes will fix it. This happened to my friend once and all she had to do was plug it into her computer and that fixed it.
