N8 doesn't show new SMS messages

Hi,
i've recently noticed that my N8 does not show anything that there is a new SMS. I have to check every now and then for inbox for SMS:s to know if i have received an text message. I have checked for updates for firmware, but there is no newer available.
What can i do for it?
Best greetings
Perttu

There is a homescreen widget that will show new messages (plus missed events and calls), it is called "notifications" just edit the homescreen and add it
Also you can get the menu button light to flash if you have unread messages, to set go to Settings > Phone > Notification Lights > notification light

Viewing new SMS messages on my home page - Pearl 9100

Can the BB Pearl 9100 show new SMS messages on the home page if the Today layout is selected? This was possible on my old BB 8110. I wish to see new messages without having to click to the next screen.
I loved my 8110 and know that if I can find a solution to above, I will love my new 9100 more.
Grateful for any advice given!

Yes you can use a Today theme with messages & sms.
it will be enhanced even more when the OS6 will be available.

Mail doesn't show new messages

Mail sometimes doesn't show new messages for an IMAP account. The badge in the dock says that there is a new mail but it doesn't show up in the inbox. I'm sure that I didn't just miss it, because, smart mailboxes will not find that new mail as well. When I restart mail, the mail finally shows up in the inbox as well.
Anybody else seeing this and what can I do to resolve that issue?
Thanks!

I'll bring everyone up to speed on what's been happening with my family accounts. I first suspected Safari, because it seemed to be a local problem, but then, inexplicably, all mobileme mail accounts tied to that family account, which included 4 subaccounts and 1 mail-only account, not only did not work in mail.app, but also failed in other email clients I tested, including clients on Linux. Also, the webmail version was not working well, either.
So, if your problem is isolated to a single computer and just to mail.app, or just with a particular network, then I think the local troubleshooting steps are the way to go.
But, if your problem extends to other platforms, clients, and webmail, then it is likely an issue the engineers at Apple will have to figure out. I found the online chat service for mobileme users to be very helpful in checking through all the 'usual suspects' and after we had pretty much ruled out any of the usual culprits, it was escalated to the engineers, who are working on it now.
They were able to release all the email that had been piling up, but there are still some glitches they are trying to iron out. As an aside, I have been personally managing various mail servers for a dozen years, and am well aware of the difficulties in diagnosing email problems, and it was stumping me, and I have intimate knowledge of Exim and Exchange and various email modules used with mx services.
+While this 'should never happen', it's unrealistic for users to expect it never will. Of all the services provided on the Internet, email, is arguably the most complex service and it's become much more complex in the past few years. In my work, typically 94% of all email traffic hitting the server is filtered out as spam. So, the 6% that is allowed through is the stuff most of us see and are spending time and resources filtering out the 20-40% additional unwanted spam that the host let through because if they tightened it down any further the risk of false positives would become too great. I spend way more time on the mail service aspects of my job than the web services, and mail problems occupy at least 80% of my troubleshooting logs. So, while email seems more 'simple' than the exotic and bandwidth intensive services like video chat, voip, and web2 transactions, compared to the amount of wasted bandwidth and cpu cycles filtering packets, I think email is the number one problem service for most host providers. We tried to depend upon it for mission-critical communications, and it was never designed for that initially, and the spammers are making certain it won't achieve that status at least in the near future. If anything, email is your least dependable Internet service. Combine this with the growing array of user configurations, email clients, forwarding/retrieving/syncing scenarios, and user experience, and you may find yourself uttering a little prayer now and then for the poor email administrators and support personnel.+
[end of sermon - thanx for letting me get that off my chest; I feel better now! I'll feel a lot better when my email is flowing smoothly, but that's out of my hands for now.]

Skype iPhone 4 app shows that SMS message fails but still charges me. What's up with that?
I find myself re-sending the same message and paying twice as much. Not good

Hello HugoB,
Thank you for your post.
When you first send a mesage, the status should be shown as Sent. When we receive the delivery notification (Delivered or Failed) from the recipient's carrier, we will display it in your Skype client. However, if we do not receive any confirmation, we retry sending your message for up to 24 hours after which we will automatically refund you if a confirmation is still not received or if the message status from the operator indicates a failure.
If message sending used to work but suddenly stopped, or if the status indicates Delivered but the message was not received, please read this post for how to help us fix your problem:

SMS inbox doesn't show new messages after upgrading to OS 5.0.0.681. SMS format appears as IM.

My SMS inbox doesnt show new messages and also my Curve 8900 doesnt prompt for any new messages. However, the Mobiso application (which logs calls, texts) shows messages coming in with its text lengths. I asked this to Blackberryhelp on Twitter but it said to contact service provider, but there is nothing wrong with it. The format of the SMS inbox should have something wrong otherwise the Mobiso application should not have logged all messages.
Please help me, i am missing all my daily SMS since last 20 days.
Will degrading the OS help? Which is recommended OS version for BB Curve 8900?

Hi,
Here are some good articles listing the available methods for organizing and displaying messages in device OS 5.0. If you can't set your exact preferences I suggest looking in AppWorld for custom programs.
Let us know how it goes!

I can't see any new SMS messages without changing one of my options?

I got the BB Curve 8520 around a month ago. Ever since getting it, whenever I have a new SMS there will be a message indicator showing at the top. But when I go to the Message LIst, there are no messages. I found out soon after that to see any of my unread messages, I have to change an option.
So I have been doing that for the past month. I regularly receive messages, and automatically I click 'Options' and change ' Display Time' to either a yes or no. When I go back to the message list, all my unread messages are there.
I have not set up an email account. Thank you!

Try this > Open your Messages folder > press the Menu Key > Options > General Options > Email and SMS Inbox and set that to SEPARATE.
Or what is the current setting there?

Disk Utility doesn't show new drive when trying to install Snow Leopard

Please help because I've searched everywhere. My MacBook's hard drive failed. It's done for. I bought another internal, Western Digital 320gb WD3200BEVT. So it's brand new and when I boot from the Snow Leopard install I don't see the new hard drive in the Disk Utility App. All I see is my CD-Drive. No where is my new drive so that I can at least format it. People suggested on other forums that maybe it's the cables but i don't think it is cause the hard drive you just slide in and out. There are no jumpers on this drive either, so that's out. I've narrowed it down to two things, bad hard drive or this drive just isn't recognized by by Snow Leopard?

If you have tried restarting a few times and it still doesn't show up I'm afraid you are gonna have to go back in and check the connections. I know they just slot into the carriage, but possibly it is not in tight. I can only suggest you open it up and check everything thoroughly. If after a thorough check, if it still does not mount you may want to take the hard drive back and swap it. Are you sure it was only a hard drive failure in the first place? I only ask this because WD hard drives have quite a solid reputation.

ITunes 12 doesn't show update description message.

On iTunes 12.0.1.26 version, it doesn't show an information about updating a new version of the app and I have to check on iTunes store each. Is anyone same as me?
I don't know that is the problem or not because i've tried to reinstall but it had no change. By the way, it is annoying that you have to check it one by one.

Thanks, rodsvart. This update solved mine too.

IMessage for MBP not starting new SMS messages

iMessage for Mac 10.10.2 tries to start all texts as iMessages. I can only SMS text from my MBP if a conversation exists with the party of interest. How can I get my MBP to start a new text message instead of iMessages only?

I have asked the Hosts to move this to Yosemite.

Mail 3.6 doesn't show new message in IMAP folder

Hello,
I am using Mail with an IMAP server.
On this IMAP server, mails are automatically sorted to different mailboxes (IMAP folder) via .procmail.rc directives.
When I receive an Email and when this email is dispatched in the correct mailbox, Mail3.6 doesn't display this new message.
Questions : How to set-up Mail3.6 to correctly display new incoming mail server sorted in IMAP folder ? or How to overcome this Mail bug ?
PS : This question was already asked a few months ago on Apple Bug Report, answer was that this bug will be corrected on the next release.... Seems not...
Thank you by adance

Hello,
I am having a very similar problem that just started happening recently when I started using gmail folders instead of my school's email (both IMAP).
I have all emails configured for IMAP and the messages arrive fine, but when mail applies my custom filters and the messages are moved to the individual folders, the new message indicator (on the file and on the dock icon) are not present. The only new messages that appear are those in the mail Inbox. When I then click on the individual folders (I have to click through them all individually) it recognizes the new, unread email and updates the indicators (both next to the custom folder and on the dock icon).
This is a frustrating issue because I do not have any indication that I have new mail unless I go and click on each folder individually.
The issue just started occurring when i switched to using my gmail account. The folders seem to be set up appropriately to move messages in Mail and also have them labeled on gmail ([GMAIL]/foldername), but Mail just doesn't seem to recognize the messages as new once they have been moved to the folders until I sync (either by clicking on the folder or by using the "synchronize all accounts" command).
Any suggestions? I found this same issue in the archived questions (http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=7513842), but it was not resolved.
Thanks,
Daniel

Mac Mail doesn't show new messages

When I open up mail, it shows the little orange circle with "2" in the center, standing for how many new messages I have. But as soon as I close the app, the orange notification goes away. So if I was browsing in Safari, I would never know if there was a new message in my mailbox. Is there any way to fix this?

I checked email several minutes ago. Activity Monitor now shows it as using 0% of CPU time. When that's the case it's now using any power at all. Every so often it will "wake up" to check for new mail. When that happens it will briefly use some CPU power. That interval can be controlled with the setting for "Check for new messages" in the General panel of Mail's preferences.
You didn't ask about RAM, but when Mail is idle I'd expect it put minimal demands on RAM.

New iPhone 4S doesn't sync all SMS messages

I got the new iPhone 4S yesterday and I immediately moved over my SIM card from my old iPhone 4 onto there. I synched everything including messages, notes, calendars, emails and such fine, except it only synced to October 13. It's November 8 as of now and I have a feeling it's because that was the day I could have updated my phone to the new iOS? Or it was the last time I backed it up onto my computer? I have no idea. I've tried wiping my phone over and over again to get the missing texts. But it's not working. Is there some way I can transfer the existing data on my old phone onto my new phone?

In the case of an iPhone 4S, no; click here.
In the case of an iPhone 5, yes.
