Is there a way to receive an audible notificaton for new email?

If your email provider supports Push email, then you will get audible email notifications automatically. Otherwise, email is only checked when you open the email app.
If you have Fetch New Data set to automatically check every 15, 30, or 60 minutes then you will also get the tone when the system checks for mail and finds mail available.  If you set Fetch New Data to Manually then you will only get the email checked when you open the Mail app.

  • Is there any way to get an audible notification from just one mail address?

    Are there any setting or some way to show notifications for new email without open Apple Mail app ?
    You know , I am an OCD . I alway's close my Mail app and miss many important new emails .

    What I do is open the Mail.app, then click the red traffic light (upper left corner of the main Mail.app window) to close that window. The app itself will remain running and you will get updates - this helps keep the desktop tidy while while the mail app remains running. When an update is received, simply click the either the mail icon in your dock or go to the Mail.app menu and click Window > Message Viewer.

  • Is there a way to still get audible alerts of new messages without having any banners or text appear in the lock screen?

    I'm trying to make sure I am doing this correctly.  How do you set up alerts for both text messages and iMessages so that even when the phone is locked you will still get an audible or vibration alert as soon as the message is received?  And is there a way to do this without having any text appear on the lock screen that shows who the message is from.  My phone stays in locked mode most of the time but I still want to recieve alerts for new messages as soon as they arrive.  I'm also concerned about privacy so I don't want any text or preview or even any information about the sender to appear on the lock screen.  I just want a vibration or audible alert.

    Open the Settings app > Notifications > Messages. Scroll down adn turn OFF "View In Lock Screen". You may want to consider setting Alert style to none, but this will not impact what happens when the screen is locked.

  • Is there any way to change the default folder for new finder windows...

    ...Or even set a different folder as the "home folder"?
    I am recovering from an incredibly messy archive and install which refused to allow me to save my old user accounts, instead moving them all into "Previous Systems". In my haste to get the machine working again I just dragged and dropped my old home folder into the /users/ directory and changed the "short name" of the new account to match it. IT worked, but now I have an incredibly irritating problem. That is now indeed my home folder, as appears in the sidebar of all finder windows, albeit under my new short name instead of my old one. All my documents in iWeb, Garageband, etc are working now and default to the new folder.
    However, Finder has not recognized this, and every time I open a new Finder window or anything like that it defaults to the home folder created by the reinstall, which is now locked to this account (so all the folders have a red no entry sign on them). I would very much like to tell Finder to ignore this now defunct folder and default to my actual home folder instead - is there a way to do this without actually moving or changing any folders? Like a preference setting somewhere? I know there's the "Advanced Options" pane in Leopard but I've been completely unable to find anything like it in Tiger

  • Is there a way to change default Reminder List for new Reminders?

    In iCal, I have Reminders showing.  I have three Reminder Lists, but I've only got one List checked so only that List's Reminders show up.  When I create a new Reminder, iCal always wants to create it in one of the unchecked Lists - always the same List, but not the one currently showing.  I always have to finish creating the new Reminder, and then change it to be part of the other Reminder List.  And, because iCal insists on creating the new Reminder in one of the unchecked (non-displayed) Lists, it checks the box for me so now I have to go an uncheck it again to restore the display of only one List.
    Am I doing something wrong or is iCal Reminder creation just this clunky?
    Is there some way to tell iCal to use a particular Reminder List for creating new Reminders in?

    Duh.  Found it right on the General tab of iCal's Preferences.
    I really don't know how I missed that.

  • Is there a way to have a audible alert for when a mms fails to send?

    Pretty much the thread title. I want to know if there is a way for a better alert then just a little red "!" next to the text and on the mms app button. To many times I have tried to send a text then turn the screen off or slip the phone back into my pocket only to get a message awhile later from the person I was trying to text asking why I never replied then I see that lame excuse for a failed message alert. This is getting really old. Also why doesnt it auto-retry to send a failed message?

    No such functionality currently exists.

  • Is there a way to turn off calendar notifications for ical and outlook when the program is not active?

    Hi - i'm finding these to be a little bit annoying, anyone know how to do this?  The Outlook ones bug me more than the iCal ones.  Also, i'm wondering if that is hurting battery life to have that running the background.

    I'd install Better Touch Tool (free). Add two gestures for Finder ONLY that have "No action" associated with them. This disbales pinch/zoom on the desktop AND in any Finder window, but not in any other application.
    If you'd like to occasionally use pinch to zoom in the Finder (to zoom into a photo thumbnail for example), then add two more gestures, again for Finder ONLY - but this time also selecting one of the modifier keys (e.g. "Option" key). For these gestures set as "Use Apple Default or do nothing".
    Together, this enables disabling of the zoom feature (to prevent accidental zooming of the desktop icons for example). But whenever you'd like to zoom into a document or photo etc in a Finder Window (which are also now disabled), you can now simply hold down "Option" key and the Pinch functions work again.
    This solution works for me on 10.6.8

  • Is there a way to receive phone notifications such...

    Hello Everyone,
    To Start
    I have a Lumia 800, Latest Updates all installed.
    I am running windows 8, completely up to date 64 bit.
    I am running the latest version of zune.
    My question to the community is:
    Is there a way to receive phone notifications such as texts, missed calls and so forth to my computer (like in pc suite with all other nokia phones that aren't windows) with the ability to reply to them on screen as well? I sit at a desk for the majority of my day and tend to start my day my charging my phone in my desktop, i then proceeded to play very loud music and zone into my work, often forgetting about my phone until lunch and when its the end of my day. this was a service i have lived without for around 8 months now thinking “i’ll just forget about it in a week or so and it will all be in the past” well i haven't forgotten and i still miss that functionality. If anyone knows of a way to achieve what i would like ( however complex, i am pretty tech savvy) to do it would be of great help!
    Thanks
    Solved!

    There is no way to implement this under the Windows ecosystem unfortunately.

  • I've attempted to download Illustrator, but the message is that Adobe no longer supports the system on my computer. What do I do?  Is there a way to receive an older version that does download on my system?

    I've attempted to download Illustrator, but the message is that Adobe no longer supports the system on my computer. What do I do?  Is there a way to receive an older version that does download on my system?

    Without knowing anything about your computer we can't advise specifically. You can download CS6 versions in CC by checking the "older versions/ other versions" stuff in teh bottom section of the CC app's "Apps" tab, but that may not resolve your issues.

    Assuming you are using the latest version go into Settings > Notifications and turn on Allow Notifications for Mail. You can even fine tune it for which email addresses you want to receive notifications from and what kind of alert.

  • Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"? (OSX 10.10)

    Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"?
    I can change it for one conversation, but then it resets to the default, tiny font.
    The preferences menu only lets me change the conversation font.
    (OSX 10.10)

    Hi,
    As you may remember there used to be a Messages pane to the Preferences where the Font and colour of the Balloons or background and the Font text colour could be changed.
    And there was a Format Menu for character, word and Sentence changes in the current IM or iMessage.
    Those have gone in Yosemite's version of Messages (Despite it retaining the designation of Messages 8 the same as Mavericks' version).
    All that can be done now is set the size of the font and this has been moved to the General Section of the Preferences.
    The Yosemite version has also been fixed to using the Balloons style of send and receiving any type of messages as well.
    Changing the Font would involved editing the Balloon.transcript file.

  • Ios7 - is there a way to shut off or clear the new photo stream activity?

    Ios7 - is there a way to shut off or clear the new photo stream activity?  I am not asking how to shut off photo streams, just would like to clear or shut off the new 'social' activity portion of photo stream

    Thank you, but that is not it, and I am talking about the iCloud photo streams.  I know how to modify who can see or post to a shared stream, that's extremely easy. 
    What is an issue is the new 'social' style activity that summarizes all of the shared streams.  It now posts/summarizes them in an activity thread in 'streams', called "Activity"
    I would like to shut that off or be able to clear that view.  While I enjoy the occasionally funny pics I receive from old college friends in shared streams, I don't want that to show up in a 'cover photo' when I go to pull up pics in front of someone.
