IPhone 5: alarm keep on ringing: how to limit the time it rings

I am new to iPhone, and just got my iPhone 5.
How can I limit the time the alarm rings (to 30 secs or 1 min), it does not stop ringing until I turn it off.  My old cellphone (not smart phine) does that.
Problem is, when I left my iPhone some place and the alarm goes off, it will keep on ringing (and drain the battery).
Thank you.
or is there an APP that does this?

Great! Finally someone is trying to show how we can use the great Time Capsule drive for both doing (scheduled backups) and other things.
I have tried your solution, but are having problems in step 3) when trying to create a new sparsebundle directly on the Tiem Capsule share.
I have carefully prepared after your instructions the line - draggin also the Time Capsule volume to finish the line :
hdiutil create -size 200g -fs HFSX -volname BakJohn/Volumes/Time Capsule-1/John24GHzPBCoreDuo_XXXecXXbcXXX.sparsebundle
(X = numbers)
After hitting ENTER this message comes:
hdiutil: create failed - No such file or directory
Do you have any ideas or suggestions?
But gets this error message

  • How do you limit the number of rings before your answerphone kicks in?

    People calling me have sometimes complained that if I am not available to take the call, they have to wait for many rings - and hence a long time - before the messaging system kicks in. And sometimes, callers give up, assuming I don't have voicemail. I know you can limit the number of rings on other phones, but I haven't founf out how to do it with my iPhone. I'm sure it's easy though!!

    Your carrier sets this by time, not the number of "rings" since different ring tones take different times/ring.  The typical setting is 30 seconds, sometimes up to 40 seconds.  Contact your carrier to shorten it.

  • Hi, I recently got myself an apple iphone 5s (factory unlocked) phone from the US. However on using the same in India with Vodafone, i am facing a problem where the connectivity keeps switching to EDGE most of the time. Any solutions??

    Hi,
    I recently got myself an apple iphone 5s (factory unlocked) phone from the US. However on using the same in India with Vodafone, i am facing a problem where the connectivity keeps switching to EDGE most of the time. I have a 3G plan but most of the time it switches automatically to EDGE. Thats when i have to either switch Airplane mode - On/Off and then it acts normal. Any permanant solutions to fix this problem?

    Return the iPhone personally or via friend/relative/co-worker who is in
    the US. The warranty is valid only in the country of original purchase - the USA
    in this case. Apple will not accept international shipments for evaluation nor
    will Apple ship out of the country after repair/replacement.
    How did the iPhone from the US get to you in India? Reverse that process to
    get it back to the US so someone can take it into Apple.

  • How to set the number of rings before voice mail answers?

    How to set the number of rings before voice mail answers?

    For me its:
    1. Open the phone app and dial *#61# on the Keypad. Press the Call button.
    2. Locate this text on the screen: "Setting Interrogation Succeeded, Voice Call Forwarding, When Unanswered, Forwards to +" and record the 11-digit number after the + symbol.
    3. Touch the Dismiss button. Now enter this code on the Keypad: *61*+ followed by the 11-digit Forwards to number recorded in step 2, followed by *11 and *ringtime#. Ringtime is the number of seconds you want your iPhone to ring before voicemail picks up. Your finished code should look something like this:
    *61*+18555513466*11*30#
    In the example above the ring time is set to 30 seconds. Press the Call button.
    4. You should receive the message: Setting Activation Succeeded. Press Dismiss and next time you receive a call it will ring for the new amount of time before going to voicemail.

    That it is still working is miraclous.. most have died.. lots started flaking out at 18months to 2years..
    See deadtimecapsule.org
    The few that remained now seem to have reached EOL.. you can repair if you have some skills.. fairly cheaply.
    But it is well and truly time to replace.

  • My iPhone 6 plus screen was crashed, how much is the cost if I want to repair it at Apple? FYI: I didn't bought Applecare

    My iPhone 6 plus screen was crashed, how much is the cost if I want to repair it at Apple? FYI: I didn't bought Applecare+. I bought my iPhone 6 plus 3 months ago in Singapore.

    $129 US. https://www.apple.com/support/iphone/repair/screen-damage/ For local pricing call your nearest Apple store. If you live somewhere other than Singapore you'll have to send the phone to someone you trust in Singapore and have them take the phone in to have it repaired. iPhone's do not have an international warranty and can only be serviced in the country they were purchased.

  • In the Alarm & Event Query VI how to show the alarm data

    In the Alarm & Event Query VI how to show the alarm data in the front pannel using the table or multicolumn listbox .thank you very much！！！

    Hi,
    Most likely there is something wrong with your specific database or your LabVIEW DSC installation. I just used the Alarm & Event Query.vi in my machine and it seems to work fine, I can see all the alarms as well as events containned in the database.
    You may considerer generate another database (change the logging directory) and see if the behavior goes away. Also, make sure you have alarms and events on that database.
    I could run the Alarm & Query.vi by just openning its front panel and placing the correct database in the appropriated control.

  • How to set the number of rings for the agent phone rings before it get the not prepared state

    hi, how to set the number of rings for the agent phone rings?  before it get the not prepared state.
    thanks

    The following assumes that you are using ICM with an IPIVR etc (not using CVP), as the answer is different for CVP
    What you are looking for is called "Ring no answer time".  It is set in the Agent Desk Setting List tool.

  • How to remove the time slider from my project and keep only buttons

    How to remove the time slider from my project and keep only buttons to interact with my project .

    If I understand you correctly, go to the skin editor (Project, Skin Editor in Captivate 4), select the Playback Control tab, uncheck the Progressbar check box.  Leave checked the buttons for play/pause, rewind, forward, back, etc.
    I hope this helps.

  • My daughter and I both have iPhone 4s'.   Last night she switched to ios7 and I am still using ios6.  I use the find my iPhone app to keep track of her and since the update it no longer works.  Her phone says its on. ???

    My daughter and I both have iPhone 4s'.   Last night she switched to ios7 and I am still using ios6.  I use the find my iPhone app to keep track of her and since the update it no longer works.  Her phone says its on but when I try and locate it from either my phone or laptop it shows it offline.  Any suggestions.  It's my only peace of mind! Thanks!

    Does she have her own iCloud account?  You can have more than one iCloud account installed on a device, and some users install a secondary iCloud account which is common to others in the family to allow "Find My iPhone" to be used from one account while keeping separate iCloud contacts, mail, etc.
    But with iOS 7 although you can still have multiple iCloud accounts installed, only the "primary" iCloud account supports "Find my iPhone".  So if her iCloud account is the primary, you can no longer track her from your iCloud account.  Is that what happened in your case?
