Mail notification sound plays after I have read a new message

When a new message comes in, the mail sound does not play right away. Often I will see the email and read it. Then, some time after I've finished and the screen is locked again, the sound plays.
This problem occured with iOS 4 and still happens in iOS 5.

Hi,
I have had chats/conversations that have shown the blue "unread" indicator which goes if you reselect the chat but appears again when you select another Chat.
I have also had the red Unread number indicator showing on the Dock icon badge as a separate issue.
This second I have resolved in Force Quitting the DOCK in Activity Monitor ( I will use Terminal but prefer an User Interface option).
The first I tend to solve by dismissing that particular Chat/Conversation.
As you have tried the DOCK reset method by both the recommended methods of doing so I would try a PRAM/NVRAM reset.
Restart the Mac holding down the CMD+ALT+P+R keys all at the same time until you have heard three Start up Bongs.
You can then let the Start up Continue.

Mail being marked as read after I have read it - iOS

I have an issue where mail is being marked as unread immediately after I've read it on my iPad (3rd Gen) and iPhone 5 both running latest iOS 7. Any ideas?
I can see the blue dot, then I open the mail, the dot disappears temporarily, then while the mail is still open and I'm reading it the blue dot comes back. Its happening with two accounts setup as IMAP on both my devices.
Could this be a problem with the server on the side of my mail client? For what it's worth I have the same two accounts setup on my MacBook Pro as IMAP and have no such issue.
Any help would be great!

This reply to is to correct the title of my question. It should read "Mail is being marked as UNREAD" after I have read it"

How can you close an email after reading without either deleting it or saving it somewhere? I use AOL and it just goes to "old mail" after you have read the email.

How can you close an email in Apple iPad after reading it without deleting it. I use AOL and in their application it just goes to "old mail" after you have read it. In Apple's email it stays open. Very annoying.

You cannot actually close an email in the mail app on the iPad. You can tap on the drafts folder or any empty folder that you migh have when you are done reading the email and then the blank white window will appear in the mail app.
The mail app will always show emails otherwise. That is just the way that it works currently on the iPad.

Outlook 2013 new mail notification sounds can't be changed

I've got a weird issue with Outlook 2013 on Windows 8.. I've read several other posts that are kind of similar but they don't really apply.
So, Outlook 2013 uses the "Desktop Mail Notification" sound event.. unless I change the .wav file assigned to that event. Then it instead uses the "New Mail Notification" event. Then when I change the .wav file assigned
to THAT one, it changes again to instead use the "Notification" event. Then when I change the .wav file assigned to "Notification," Outlook just won't play anything at all when receiving new mail. It just flat refuses to use
anything but the default .wav files.
Has anyone run into this before?

Hi,
To change the new mail notification sound, please try the following:
1. Right click the sound icon at the right bottom to open the sound settings.
2. Under the
Windows section, change both the Desktop Mail Notification and New Mail Notification
events to have the same .wav file for the sound you want played for them.
3. Then click OK to test the result.
Thanks,

HT1146 I want to hear the mail notification sounds. How can I get the sounds to stay active?

I am unable to keep the mail notification sounds on mail. No message notification, nothing. I have already had two consultations with mac service personnel. Any suggestions?

I also wanted to know, if I can assign my JV1080 to the audio Instrument tracks & manupilate both sound source. WOW that be great if Logic Pro can do this.
If you mean play them back with the same MIDI information, and have the MIDI channel set up to control the external JV1080, yes you can. But if you mean control the Audio levels and such, I would recommend bringing the JV1080 back into logic on a Stereo input and grouping it with the Audio Instrument.
I have the o/p of the md player going into tape i/p of the mackie 1202- VLZPRO.
I believe the Tape inputs of a Mackie board goes straight to the output faders. Try another set of inputs.

Mail notification (sound) will not change

I cannot seem to get the mail sound to change (on my iPhone5) from the sound I had on my 4s (backed up and reloaded through iCloud).
I have changed the sound in "settings" and regardless of that sound is chosen, the "News Flash" WILL.NOT.GO.AWAY
I even changed it to "None" and the "News Flash" sound still chimes.
Anyone have this issue?

Ok so the first things that you would need to determine are as follows: This is the best way to get this to test and see if it works for you.   First things first, set aside all the notes on configurations that you would need for 2 Accounts to configure with email. Prior to doing this, do the reset as listed above in the directions of this post's reply. Once you have it reset, then do the following steps:
1.   First , set the mail notification Sound by going to Settings > Sounds > Mail , and change this here to something other than default.
2. Add your first email account first to the phone using the Mail Accounts and do New. Once you have added the new account, just this first one, send a mail message to it from a PC/MAC and test to see if the sound is working other than the default meaning the sound you changed it to.
3. Once you have conifrmed that it's working this way, next you will need to do, is add the 2nd account to the phone, and test that you can get mail on it.
4. Now that you have both accoutns, you can go into Settings>Notifications>Mail>and you will see both accounts listed there .   For me it's : Exchange, LiveMail, Icloud in that order.   All of these are clickable with touch.
5 Touch one of them it will open the menu to allow you to change notifications including sounds.
CHANGE all 3 accounts sounds using step 4 listed and then after you have done this for each of them accounts, test by sending emails to them.
Let me know if you need help.
Thanks.

Mail notification sound missing?

Hi every one, this is regarding the mail notification sound in Mail application of Mac OS X Mountain Lion.
I've configured in setting of the inbox account of mail to notify with sound whenever I recieve a new email, but unfortunately it's not happening.
So what's the remedy for the concern???

HI,
For most apps the Alert Sounds are played by System Preferences > Sound Sound Effects where the volume needs to be high enough.

How to make the notification sounds play through EarPods

The notification sounds/ringer on my iPod touch keeps playing through the external speakers even though I have EarPods plugged in. If I turn on a video of game tho, it will play through the earpods. Is it possible to make the notification sounds play through the EarPods as well?

Hi Everyone,
Just in case anyone else runs into this problem here is the solution that i've managed to piece together,
I have a movie clip twice the size of the stage, the movie clip is called bg_mc, here is my actionscript...
bg_mc.addEventListener(Event.ENTER_FRAME, mouseMoveHandler);
function mouseMoveHandler(event):void
var cursorX = stage.stageWidth - mouseX;
bg_mc.x -= dx / 5;
this action script tells the movieclip to move left and right depending on where the users mouse pointer moves. (it also adds a slight delay to make it look like tweening)
I then published this in Flash using the publish settings shown in the reply above.
Then i went into dreamweaver and removed the margins in the html file
Now the flash file will resize to any screen resolution and will allow the user to move the MC left / right across the screen depending on where the mouse pointer is,
I hope this is helpful,
Ben

In the Kindle app, is there any way to delete books after I have read them?

In the Kindle app, is there any way to delete books after i have read them?

Nevermind that first part as I forgot that nothing shows up for the Nano at all in Device Manager,
The 2nd half of my reply still applies:
Otherwise, try uninstalling all USB root controlllers from your system, rebooting your PC, and reconnecting your Nano. This root controller drivers will automatically be re-installed upon reboot.

Whats going on when after i have put my new project it tells me that cannot burn because my encode it too large for DVD

I am trying to convert a video into a dVd i did one and it will not play on my blueray, but, at least it will do on my computer. Now i am trying to do a different dvd and it tells me after i have downlowed my new project, that i cannot burn the idvd because it is too large check my encoded?

The reason why your DVD will not play maybe your choice of disk.
Was it a DVD + or DVD - ?
Always use a good quality DVD blank disk, at least Verbatim and check what format your player will play.
Next, to achieve the best quality export from iMovie, Share your Project to Media Browser.
Then open iDVD and use the media button (bottom right) to import your movie.
A possible reason that you are getting a too large error message is the time length of your DVD.
The default setting in iDVD for Encoding is Best Performance (60mins) and you need to change this to either High Qualirty or Professional Quality which will allow more to be encoded on the disc (120 mins).
iDVD > Project > Project Info > Encoding to change this setting and see on the Capacity slider if your project will fit.
Otherwise check how much free space you have on your HD.
Z.
PS Slow your burn speed down to x4 for error free results.

I have read that new purchases of macbook pro will get free upgrade to LION OS. When and how do I go about this?

http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2011/06/06lion.html
The Mac OS X Lion Up-To-Date upgrade is available at no additional charge via the Mac App Store to all customers who purchased a qualifying new Mac system from Apple or an Apple Authorized Reseller on or after June 6, 2011. Users must request their Up-To-Date upgrade within 30 days of purchase of their Mac computer. Customers who purchase a qualifying Mac between June 6, 2011 and the date when Lion is available in the Mac App Store will have 30 days from Lion’s official release date to make a request.
Currently that's the only information available. I suspect more will be posted as we get closer to launch.
