My custom alerts stopped working.

For some time now without issue I have been using rintones and text tones I created with garage band. The last week or so, they stopped working. The odd time one will work. Under settings for my contacts, nothing has changed. I even tried to reset the custom alerts to the contacts and also did a reset (not sure if I did hard or soft reset [home and power button]. If you have any advice, please help.
I am using iphone 4s with software 7.0.4

There is only one kind of reset on an iPhone. It's just called a "reset" and you do it by pressing and holding the Home and power buttons until the silver apple appears.
I'd try resyncing the tones from iTunes.

HT201412 iPhone 4S text alerts stop working

I've have iOS 6 for months. Out of the blue my text alerts stopped working. I've rebooted a few times to no avail. All settings look right. And everything else seems to be working proper.

Diesel I tend to agree with you there! All other sounds do work and I have the "glass" tone choosen for texting. I was all working fine with the new ios6 which I've had for months. since all other sounds work, I'll be heading to the genius bar at my local apple store. Now if only I'd taken that apple care ....LOL oh well

Interactions to custom component stopped working

I have created a beta site with 6 Page States. The last state has a custom component state that has 9 states of its own. The icon on Page 1 was clickable and transitioned to State 1 of Page 6, but when I linked the remaining 8 icons on Page 1 (for a total of 9) to their component states' variation; it stopped all transition to page 6 stopped. The transitions/interaction to Page 9 w/ custom components stop working. Is their a limit to the number of these states? All other transitions to the remaining pages are working beautifully! This is a cool program. I almost completed a project without any help other than the videos.

Gotcha. There is no limit to the number of objects per state of a custom component, and there is no problem with having text and an image in the same custom component.
I think your explanation of states, transitions, and custom components might still be a little confused, so let me try to explain it a different way:
Your main application has a set of states, aka views or places the user can go. You can create transitions that play when the user goes from a state to another state - so there are two transitions for every pair of states (A -> B and B -> A). It also has a set of objects (aka layers) which you can see in the Layers panel. Some objects only exist in one state, while some objects appear in multiple states.
A custom component is like an enclosed microcosm of the main application. You can create states, and define transitions between pairs of states. You also define the set of objects in the custom component. These objects may exist in one or more states of the custom component, but are separate from the objects in the main application.
There's no such thing as a transition from a state of the custom component to a state of the main application, or vice versa. Each component (the main application and the custom component) has its own set of states and transitions between those states. Likewise, each component has its own set of layers, and cannot manipulate the layers of other components.
When you have an instance of a custom component in your main application, you can set its visibility, position, and other properties in each state of the main application, but you can't make changes to its layers between states of the main application. One property that you can change is its its state (either by creating an Interaction, or by creating a "Set Component State" action in a timeline). Setting its state will cause it to play the transition that exists from its current state to the new state, if such a transition exists.
Does that make sense?

Ring Tones/Alerts stopped working

My ring tones & alerts have stopped working. I only get the vibration. When I go to "Sounds" and try to reset ring tones, I get the following error message: "Invalid ring tone selected, please make another selection!" That happens no matter what ring tone or alert I try.

Hi,
Pull the battery and let the device restart. Try it again and see if it works better. Let us know.

Ebay alerts stopped working (cha-ching for sold item)

My ebay alerts (bid alerts and the cha-ching when an item sells) has stopped working, Ive tried down loading all the updates etc but still no joy,
Ive also checked all the settings but still nothing!
Help??

If you have an Apple Store (or a Premium re-seller) near you, you can take it in for examination. Whether there will be a charge for that, I don't know.
Best line of approach would be to ask for a formal quotation to repair the item. As it is out of warranty, any repair work would be chargeable but asking for the quote will avoid someone just doing the work ... and presenting you with an unacceptable bill.

Reminder alerts stopped working

My reminder alerts have stopped working on my iPhone 4, iOS 7.0.1 The reminders appear on the screen but no sound or vibration happen.

Hi susanmshelley,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand you are not being alerted by sound or vibration when a reminder shows up on your lock screen. I would suggest taking a look at the attached article and make sure that the sounds are turned on.
iOS: Understanding sounds, ringtones, and alerts
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5800
If the sounds are turned on and you are still not receiving the alerts, I suggest looking at the following article for troubleshooting notifications.
iOS: Understanding notifications
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3576
Troubleshooting notifications
Push notifications require an active Wi-Fi or cellular connection.
Note: Notifications use Wi-Fi only when a cellular connection is unavailable. Firewalls and proxy servers may affect your ability to receive notifications. For more information, see Unable to use Apple Push Notification service (APNs).
If you're not receiving notifications for a specific app, try these steps:
Verify that the app supports notifications.
After installing an app or restoring a backup to a different iOS device, open the app to begin receiving notifications. If the app requires entering or logging in to an account, you will need to do this before receiving notifications.
Check Settings > Notification Center to ensure that the app is configured for notifications. If notifications do not appear in the Notification Center, verify that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
Have a great day,

SCEP Email Alerts Stopped Working in SCCM 2012 R2

System Center 2012 R2 alerts for SCEP have stopped sending emails upon an infection. Some infections, not all, are still being reported under the monitoring tab but an email is no longer sent. I have tried to test with the EICAR test files and
nothing was reported under monitoring. I tested the email through SCCM and it is working.
This happened once before and I deleted the subscription and added it back to get it working again. This time, no luck. Any help is appreciated.

Any errors/warnings in the NotiCtrl.log on the server?

Performance monitor counter alert stops working during run

I've created a counter alert whenever the processing time of a specific process falls below a certain threshold, so that a email would be sent to me through task scheduler. I had tested the set up by turning off the process and checking to see whether performance
monitor would trigger an alert (it did). Then I let the counter run continuously. After several days, I noticed that the process had froze, but the counter did not trigger an alert even though performance was clearly below the threshold I had set. It doesn't
look like the counter had stopped running either during this time. Why wasn't an alert triggered? Is it not possible to run a counter continuously?

Hi,
Thanks for your question.
Firstly, would you please tell us which performance counter you have chosen? Is it Process\%Processor time?
In addition, which kind of alert have you configured, to log in the event log or send emails?
Process\% Processor
Time is the percentage of elapsed time that all of process threads used the processor to execution instructions. You can try to turn off the process which is frozen now to see if you will receive the alert.
Besides, what is the meaning of “run
a counter continuously”? Did you set any stop conditions?
Best regards,
Susie

Alerts stopped working

There is a problem with my alerts as they quit working after a year. This is really a problem with the quality of the Motorola phone in my estimation. I need an upgrade to a phone that will work all the time with notifications.

Hi Quinn68!
Let's get your alerts working! What model Motorola do you have and what alerts are you speaking of? Usage alerts? Messaging? Also, when did this begin?
Please supply some additional details so we can get this going for you, thanks!

Ringtones, message tones and alerts suddenly stopped working on my Pixi.....

I just upgraded from an old BB Curve to a Palm Pixi. I got my new phone, September 27th 2010... two days later, after normal usage (ie texting, calling & photos) the alerts stopped working completely. I have never used headphones on that phone either. I called my service provider and they sent me a new Pixi, which I got three days ago. Well this afternoon, while sitting in my pocket, the same exact thing happened as the other Pixi. (Again, I have never used headphones) I can play music through the outer speakers, I can play ringtones if I open them and play them manually... but whenever I receive a call or text all my phone will do is vibrate, also my alarm won't work (sound) and neither my calendar alerts. I have all the audio settings turned to "on". I even have the system sounds turned to "on" but they won't play (the sound when you take a pic or throw a card off the screen)... no sound on my game apps either. I really love this phone, but I'm so temped to go back to my old BB Curve. Has anyone else had this problem? Is it fixable or should I just a get a new Pixi?
Post relates to: Pixi p120eww (Sprint)
This question was solved.
View Solution.

Have you checked the ringer switch on the top of the device next to the power button? Do you see red showing; if so switch it in the opposite direction so you do not see red. The device is in vibrate mode in the position, and all sounds is disabled.

Ringtones and BBM alerts not working

Hi, I have created several custom ringtones and phone alerts on both mine and my husbands new BB 9320's . These were working just fine for the first few weeks but now the custom BBM alerts will not work on my phone but the custom ringtones do work. Instead of the custom alert I've selected the alert sound for the normal profile is the one that sounds. However the custom alerts DO work for text messages ! Just not BBM !
My husbands phone has the exact opposite problem, BBM alerts work, ringtones don't !
The problem seems to have happened after I had installed some various Apps . So I uninstalled all those apps and I've done both a soft reboot and battery pull on each phone trying to fix this. I also deleted those contacts and their custom alert set-ups and re-added everything from scratch, rebooted again, still nothing. It's been like this for a few weeks now, I just can't figure it out . Please help !

When my iPhone is connected (via the Lightning cable) to the usb port in my car, the alert tones are no longer played through the car speaker or the phone. This previously worked, but has randomly stopped working, help!

I took my iPhone to the Service center of M/s RSG INFOTECH PRIVATE LIMITED on April 17, 2014.
Why are you posting in this forum about what occured with an independent service provider? How is is at all relevant to Apple?? In fact, service by any person or business not authorized by Apple voids any waranty.

My custom iRadio station stopped working

Twice now I have created custom iRadio stations and both times, after about a month of playing, they stop working. It's very frustrating as I spend a lot of time customizing with very specific artists and songs only to have to start over when the iRadio station stops working. All of the Apple created iRadio stations work fine, it's only the ones I've made myself that stop working.

This could be a bug in iTunes. Try updating to the latest version. If you are on the latest version I recommend enrolling your Mac in the OS X beta program, which will give you the betas of iTunes. If that doesn't work you might be requesting too many things from one station. Try removing a few items in that station. Hope this helps.
