Is there a way to lengthen the notification sound

My husband gets texted at night when he's on call for business and needs to be woken by it...the notification sound is rather short and may not wake him.  Is there a way to make it play longer or to make it go off again if not answered?
Thanks!

There's also Missed Call from the market. I don't use it, but know a number of people who've been very happy with it.

  • IS THERE A WAY TO CHANGE THE NOTIFICATION SOUNDS FOR REMINDERS?

    IS THERE A WAY TO CHANGE THE NOTIFICATION SOUNDS FOR REMINDERS?

    Yes you can, in the sense that this is an "Alert" sound you've set for the whole Mac software, and of course this is set in System Preferences > Sounds > Sound Effects. This will change the "alert sound" for the whole Mac.
    So, No, you can't change only this particular Alert sound. If you could, it would be done in System Preferences > Notifications, and your only option there is whether you want the sound or not (Chkbox on "Play sound when receiving Notifications")

  • Is there a way to leave the notification center open

    Hello all,
    I wondered if there was a way to leave the notification center open in OS 10.8.1.
    Maybe via the terminal?
    I am using a 30" monitor and to me it would make sense to have NC alway open.
    Thanks a lot.
    Cheers.

    You can poke around yourself,  but right off I do not see how this is possible in customizing the plist.

  • Is there a way to remove the notification center pull down?

    My autistic son is obsessed with the notification center pull down, and can't focus on any apps. This has rendered the iPad useless for him!This has basically rendered the iPad useless for his educational purposes, and even his ability to concentrate on his favorite games. I realize this is a pretty unique issue, but I wouldn't be surprised if it's a problem for at least a couple of other autistic kiddos out there? But even if my son is tho only kid wit this problem, I'm sure there must be other users out there who hate the fact that this pull down does not appear to be optional...
    If anyone out there has found a way to turn this "feature" off, PLEASE pass some instructions my way! Thank you!

    Hi ChrisanneW,
    I found this workaround on Chris Calabreese's blog. First the setup:
    Go to the Settings app. Select General, then Accessibility.
    Scroll down to the very bottom and tap the Accessibility Shortcut option.
    Tap the AssistiveTouch option so there is a check mark next to it. This should be the only option with a check mark; if not, un-check the other options.
    Once that’s done, here’s how to disable the Notification and Command Centers. This can be done from the home screen or within any app:
    Click the Home button three times in quick succession. A black square with a white dot will appear on the screen. Tap it once.
    A menu with several options will open. Tap the Home option three times in quick succession. The menu will disappear.
    Your Notification and Command Centers should now be disabled. Try swiping down from the top of the screen and swiping up from the bottom to verify.
    NOTE: I’ve discovered this method has one undesirable side effect. When Notification Center has been successfully disabled, your device will no longer sleep automatically. Your device’s battery will drain quickly if you’re not aware of this. If you want to disable Notification Center on a long-term basis, you will need to remember to manually put your device to sleep when you’re not using it by hitting the Sleep/Wake button. This effect is only temporary; if you re-enable the Notification Center (as outlined below), the device will sleep automatically once again. Because of this, I would recommend disabling Notification Center only when you really need to (when playing a game, for example), then re-enable it when you’re finished.
    If you wish to enable them again, here’s how:
    Click the Home button three times in quick succession. The black square with a white dot will appear; this time ignore it.
    Click the Home button again three times in quick succession. The black square with a white dot will disappear and your Notification and Command Centers should be working again.
    Hope this answers your question.

  • Is there a way to copy the notification rules?

    Hi,
    I am migrating to a new server and have already setup notofication rules the way I want them on the old server. Instead of resetting everything manually I would like to copy the notification setup. Is there a way to do this?
    I am working with 10GR2 and using dbconsole.
    Thanks!

    You should be syncing iphone to your computer regularly so all of your contacts should be on your computer in whatever program you have chosen to sync.

  • Is there a way to have the Notification bar in the Beta 7 build?

    My version of the Beta just upgraded to the beta 7 build and with it, it took away the Notification bar, as well as the ability to restore it. A friend of mine suggested to search for an add-on, but I do not believe that to be a possibility as the Notification bar was only removed now in the Beta 7 build.

    The '''''Status bar''''' was removed from the Firefox 4.0betas as of 4.0b7, and replaced by the '''Add-on bar''' as planned for Firefox 4.0 .
    The Status4Evar extension provides the 3 basic functions of the old Status bar as "widgets" for the new Add-ons bar. <br />

  • Is there a way to change the default sound for alarms?

    That is, when I set a new event, I have it set to have the alarm activate one day before the actual event (thanks to MadisonP for answering that). I'd like to change the default alarm from Basso to something a little more pleasant. Is it possible to have ical set up so that when I create a new event, the alarm is automatically Submarine?
    Please help.
    Best,

  • Is there a way to make the Twitter notification banner show the whole tweet, instead of just two lines?

    I am using TweetDeck for Desktop and just switched to a computer running Mountain Lion (10.8.5). I have the Notification Center configured to show Banner alerts when tweets from designated accounts are posted. Prior to running Mountain Lion, TweetDeck itself would show me a banner in the top right-hand corner of my screen, and that banner would include the full tweet.
    Now that I'm on Mountain Lion, it appears that the Notification Center has taken over the alert system. However, unlike the native TweetDeck banner, the Mountain Lion notification banner is limited to two lines, which means that, unless it's a very short tweet, I can't see the full tweet that has been posted. This is VERY inconvenient, as it means that I need to either open TweetDeck or open the Notification Center in order to see the full tweet.
    Is there any way to adjust the Notification Center banner to allow it to show the full tweet, instead of just the first two lines?

    You have 2 options:
    1. Create Video Playlists in iTunes (for example create one for Home movies, the other for Movies)
    You COULD make these Smart Playlists. (see below for one technique)
    NOTE: If you wish to do this don't miss the preference in Settings to enable Video Playlists at least  (at least in the latest ATV updates) I believe it's under Audio setting. Amazingly the default is NOT to show!! (had me going for quite a bit)
    2. Set up your Home Movies as "Music Videos" This has some gotchas:  like you'll probably want to choose the skip when shuffiling, also Now they'll appear in music lists. The only advantage to this is that it makes playlists more available on iOS devices since there are no Playlists displayed in the Videos App.... (yeah Apple's made this WAY confusing of late)
    If you wish to keep these clearly defined (especially for use with Smart Playlists.
    Select the movie
    Get Info (Edit Menu) (or Command-I Mac, Control-I, PC)
    Choose the "Video" Tab - you can select your desired type from the Media Kind pop up.
    Alternate method for setting up smart playlist of home movies would be to set the Genre to "Home Movie"
    Probably more than you needed to know - leigh
