Iphone5 plays wrong alert tone for facebook notifications.

It continues to play the "tri-tone" alert tone, even after I've changed it under Settings<Sounds<Facebook Post.  How do I fix this?

First, if you want to clean your Mac, get rid of "CleanMyMac."
I don't know what's causing your problem, so I can only offer an experimental solution. The effects are easily undone if it doesn't work. The real cause may be a bug or something external to your computer.
Back up all data.
Close the System Preferences window if it's open.
Step 1
Triple-click the line below to select it:
~/Library/Social
Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder named "Social" should open. Move that folder to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Log out, log back in, and test. If there's no change, put the folder you moved back where it was, overwriting the one that may have been created in its place. Go on to the next step. Otherwise, delete the folder you moved.
Step 2
Proceed as in step 1, but with this line:
~/Library/Internet Accounts
You'll need to recreate your settings for Facebook, Twitter, and other social networks, as applicable.

  • Iphone 5 plays wrong alert tone for facebook notifications.

    I'm sorry to disappoint you, but I have an iPhone 4S with iOS 6.1.3, so it is not just the iPhone 5. It has been this way for over a year, which would include several iOS versions. I can try the vehicle question you have later. I don't have access to the vehicle right now.
    I'm not sure if any of the web based streaming apps will play over Bluetooth in a vehicle. Since this is a sound app, I'm not sure it Bluetooth supports that, but it would take someone other than me to test that, since I don't stream music that way. I do use Bluetooth on occasion to play my iTunes music in the vehicle and that works just fine. The restriction for text tones may be based in the ability of the Bluetooth stack to support it, if the device does not support the texting portion of Bluetooth.
    If you believe this is something Apple needs to be aware of, then you need to let them know this. This can only be done via the feedback page at www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.
    EDIT: Here are the appropriate support documents about Bluetooth. One is about what profiles the iPhone supports, and the other is about Bluetooth FAQs. It could be also that the vehicle does not support the latest Bluetooth profiles. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3647 http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3887

  • Can i have different alert tones for Multiple email accounts?

    Would like to have different alert tones for each email account. Is there a way to accomplish it?

        Hi there, DawgFan1980!
    I understand the purpose of the different notification sounds. The iPhone only allows 1 tone for e-mail accounts. At this time, this cannot be changed.
    Thank you,

  • Custom ALERT TONE for iphone need HELP please.

    I understand how to create a custom TONE as an M4R file and import into itunes into the TONES library.
    When i sync my TONES to my iPhone, it lists as a RING tone.
    My custom ring tones, which are approximately 10 sec long work just fine when set as my RING tone for incoming calls.
    HOWEVER ....
    What i am DESPERATELY trying to do is create a custom ALERT tone and have it LIST as an ALERT tone in my phone and NOT a ring tone. Seems custom tones do not work for sms alerts.
    I searched EVERYWHERE and can not seem to find an answer. I realize apple wants us all to BUY alert tones, but i should be able to create my own too no?
    I created some custom alert tones, approximately 1 sec long each. Converted them to M4R files and sync'd them to my phone.
    In my phone they appear under the RING TONES list and not ALERT TONES.
    Maybe this dosent matter, however, when i try to set my TEXT ALERT SOUND to one of my custom ALERT tones, they do NOT work. My text messages come in without playing the sound.
    Can ANYONE PLEASE HELP ME figure out how to properly create a TONE as an ALERT TONE for my iphone?
    HUGE THANKS to ANYONE that can help.

    I've never been able to assign custom tones under alerts.  It doesn't matter though as you can assign ringtones as alerts as of iOS 5 I believe.  I had a similar issue with silent alerts, sometimes they would play, other times theywouldn't, but they would always play when selecting them under settings.  Resetting all settings (not content) has so far fixed that issue for me.  Try resetting your settings after you've synced your tones.

  • Is there a way to change the alert tone for the find my iphone app?

    Is there a way to change the alert tone for the find my iphone app? The one they use from the factory is terrible! I tried it out and could hardly hear it from 5 feet away!

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    Unfortunately, so far as I am aware you cannot change this tone. I must admit I don't fully understand your problem, I've tried it myself and can hear it from some distance away.

  • Why mp3 songs can't make it as alert tones for tex...

    Hey Nokia, why is your lumia phones can't put mp3 songs as alert tones for text messages? This is a big problem on your lumia phones because we missed a lot of text messages because your built in alert tones is not enough to catch our attention when we have a incoming text messages especially in a noisy environment. All the other brands of smartphones including the dumbphones are capable of having mp3 songs as alert tones for text messeges. Please do something about this.

    As a new user to the forum you might want to read the forum guidelines as they will provide you with some basics on using the reqources here such as this;
    1. Search before you post. If you are looking for an answer to a specific question, there’s a good chance that it has already been posted. First try a search using likely keywords. You can search from the whole forum (select "Community") or from within a certain area (select "Board").
    That said, currently Windows Phone doe snot support customer tones for anything but ringtones. If and when this will change is unknown although we know it will not change in the coming GDR2 update.

  • Can I set individual alerts (tones) for each calendar events/ reminders

    Can I set individual alerts (tones) for each calendar events/ reminders

    Thanks On my phone, these are the options under Menu>Settings & Tools>Sound Settings>Alert Sounds: 1. TXT Message 2. Multimedia Message 3. Voicemail 4. Emergency Tone  5. Missed Call . And under Service Alerts: 1. ERI 2. Minute Beep 3. Call Connect 4. Charge Complete 5. Software Update. So nothing there for the calendar. And options from the calendar that I can see are Add (here you can change the tone for one event or recurring event, but not set a default tone for the event alarm), View (gives you the options of viewing an existing event in more detail, adding a new one, and the same choices from the Options list on the first screen where you are viewing the entire month), and Options (1. lets you view weekly/monthly,  2. Go To Today  3. Go To Date   4. Search   5. Erase All   6. Erase All Old   7. Send.  So as far as I can see, there's no way to do it. I have been through all the Settings and Tools menus... and the Events menu. But...I have just discovered that if I delete ALL my alarms and change the Ringtone for the first alarm I set, that ringtone becomes the default ringtone. I will try deleting ALL my events and starting fresh with a new tone and see if that works!

  • FIX FOR FACEBOOK NOTIFICATIONS (THIS REALLY WORKS!!!)

    If you have ios6 and you put your login into for facebook intergration then all you need to do is login to facebook from a computer and go to ACCOUNT SETTINGS then NOTIFICATIONS from there under EMAIL FREQUENCY if the BOX is checked then uncheck it you can check it back after you are done. Almost there scroll down to the bottom of the page this will be under ALL NOTIFICATIONS click on EDIT OTHER APPLICATIONS check the BOX that has IOS and then save then you can check the EMAIL FREQUENCY BOX and once done to check to see if it is working just send yourself a message or have someone send you one
    WITHOUT IOS6 INTERGRATION JUST LEAVE EMAIL FREQUENCY BOX unchecked

  • Alert tone for messages

    I was wondering if there was a way to make messages vibrate instead of a tone. When I click on 'none' it doesn't do anything but I don't want the alert tone... It's annoying when I'm at work... Help please!!!!

    You really should read over the manual. But the quickest way to do this is go to settings, sounds. You can change the message tone to silent and vibrate.

  • How do I create different alert sounds for various notifications?

    i'm not near the techy many of you are, but this question is way basic even for me.  sorry.  but my phone makes the same sound for every single notification, new text, appointment reminder, battery fully charged (although that one always comes if and only if i wake it up, so sometimes it is on the charger longer than it needs to be ), download complete... it is the sound i set up under the settings, but i wonder if there isn't a way to change the particular sound for certain types of notifications so when it is across the room making noise i can register what sort of notification i'm getting without dropping everything i'm doing to go stare at my phone.  and how do i get it to repeat/remind me of these notifications if i happened to miss the alert sound the first time? i am usually good at just figuring this stuff out, but at this point, my guess is it isn't possible. does this mean an app is my answer? recommendations? thanks!

    Individual text message ringtones per each contact is not a feature of the stock message application. You will need a third party text message application from the Android Market for that.
    Individual ringtones for phone calls from contacts is an option under the People/Contacts app.

  • IPhone 5s playing wrong text tone?

    Hello all;
    This morning I updated my phone to the most recent software update- iOS 8.1- and now when I receive a text message it plays the "Chime" ringtone instead of the one I downloaded from iTunes. It does the same thing for any ringtone I had personalised to a certain number, as well, like I have all my contacts set to a default tone (which I don't). Has anyone else experienced/fixed this problem? I find it really annoying.

    Fixed it....after searching here and seeing that there was a pretty widespread problem with that whole Kelly Clarkson album.
    My song was an imported MP3 from my CD.  I deleted it from the cloud and then locally on my PC I "Created AAC version".  Then reupdated iTunes match. Now it plays fine.
