No longer get a sound notifications when mail arrive in the in box

Hi,
when I receive an email using the mail App I no longer get a sound notification ! , I always have done up to now ?
I have checked the Mail App: mail/preferences/general/ New mail sound (and tick in Play sounds from other mail actions. but I do hear the sound when selecting the new mail sound, when chosen from the drop down list but not when new mail arrives in the in box ?
I can hear sound from the iMac when using it with other things ?
Can anyone help, please
Martin

Same problem I just realized I had. using IMAP mobileme server. No new mail sound. All other sounds work fine. Obviously a problem on Apple's end in the way the new mobile me/imap & Mail app work.

Why won't DND supress sound notifications when earphones are connected?

The other day I was listening to relaxation music and switched on DND to avoid being disgurbed by any notifications. My earphones were connected. The iphone did play all sound notifications like mail and whatsapp and that was a big annoyance to my meditation.
I know I could use airplan mode but i dot wanna miss important notifications for review later.
Anyone facing a similar issue?

Yeah, i did it already but i can not get the device to reset. I let it for 10 sec. But the logo never appeared. Tried it several times, no result. Is there a another way to do that ?
Thanks

Sound when mail arrives?

When push mail arrives, a dialog pops up telling me mail arrived with a dismiss button. But there is no sound alert.
In Settings > Sounds > Ring the "New Mail" toggle is ON.
Is there anything else I need to do?
Thanks,
doug

I get a ding when new mail arrives and I'm already in Mail - and that is easy to hear.
I meant getting a sound alert when the popup "you have mail" dialog appears when you are outside of mail.
You are correct that Gmail doesn't appear to push. What was happening is that Mail on the iPhone automatically checks for new mail when you enter mail. Since I manually check for email on my Mac, I was confusing that behavior for push.
However, the Email(i) account received from my cell phone provider, Softbank here in Japan (the [email protected] that I mentioned in another thread) does push an alert about newly arrived mail and that is the popup dialog I was seeing.
But that message, unfortunately, apparently has no sound alert associated with it.

Hi..
For Mail, from your Mail menu bar (top of your screen) click Mail > Preferences then select the General tab.
Click the pop up menu to the right of New messages sound to make a selection.

I am getting no sound on my macbook pro. The sound does not play when I plug in headphones either. I have tried making it louder quieter, restarting my computer, HELP!

I am getting no sound on my macbook pro. The sound does not play when I plug in headphones either. I have tried making it louder quieter, restarting my computer, HELP!

There are many possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried.
1. Start with the steps recommended in this support article. Don't skip any of the steps. It's the starting point for further efforts to solve the problem.
2. If your model has an audio-out (headphone) port, and anything is plugged in, unplug it before putting the system to sleep.
3. If you've installed something called "Memory Clean" or any other third-party software that is supposed to "clean" or "purge" memory automatically, remove it according to the developer's instructions and reboot. You should do that even if the software is not causing the problem, because it's useless.
4. If you've installed an equalizer called "Boom" or anything similar, update or delete it and reboot.
5. If an AirPlay device is selected for sound output from iTunes (or from other applications via third-party software such as "Airfoil"), deselect it.
6. Launch the application "Audio MIDI Setup" by entering the first few letters of its name in a Spotlight search and selecting it in the results (it should be at the top.) Select the Output tab. If the Mute boxes are checked, uncheck them. Move the Volume sliders all the way to the right.
7. If a red light is coming from the audio-out port, the internal switch is stuck in the position for digital output. You may be able to free it by inserting and removing a mini-stereo jack of the proper size. Inserting any kind of tool in the port may cause damage that won't be covered by your warranty.
If there's no red light, the switch may still be stuck in the headphone position. Try to free it the same way.
8. Disconnect all wired peripherals except keyboard and mouse, if applicable. If more than one display is connected, disconnect all extra ones. Reboot and test.
9. Boot in safe mode. Don't log in; just reboot as usual when the login screen appears. When you do, make sure the words "Safe Boot" do not appear in the login screen. If they do, the system is still in safe mode and sound won't work.
10. Reset the NVRAM.
11. Reset the SMC.
12. Reinstall OS X after backing up all data. For a possible shortcut, see this thread.
13. Make a "Genius" appointment at an Apple Store.

I recently purchased a 7th Gen iPod nano which I have downloaded my music to. However, when I try to play this it is showing on the iPod as play but I am getting no sound through. I have checked the headphones and reset it. Any ideas?

Haha I had the exact same problem. Once I had tried it like 4 different pairs of headphones i was ready to give my iPod back. Then I tried pushing the headphones in further and proceeded to kick myself. I seems a lot of people have the same problem, post it on here and realise a few minutes later.

I can't turn off sound alerts for mail arrival

I have Mail in Lion configured to not play a sound when mail arrives. However, recently a sound started playing. It's still turned off in the config. I suspect a bug in a recent update to Lion. Has anyone else noticed this?

No wonder nobody else had this problem. It wasn't until I turned the sound off on my Macbook Pro and still heard the sound announcing an arrival of an email that I twigged. I realised that I had Mail open on my Mini to which I have speakers connected. Normally I don't have Mail running on my Mini; hence my confusion.
D'oh!

My iPhone 4S hangs (gets stuck or unresponsive) when deleting photos from the camera roll or use Messages app

I am now on my third replacement phone from Apple because of this issue. My iPhone 4S frequently hangs (gets stuck), without response, when I click on the trash icon to delete a photo, for about 20-30 seconds before becoming responsive again. I notice that this problem of freezing happens also when I use my Messages app for texts. There is no crash that occurs because the app responds after hanging for some time, therefore does not create a crash report to be sent to Apple. I never had this problem on my iPhone 4, and truly regret upgrading to the new device. I bought this phone for the faster processor, however I ended up with a device that is much slower and unresponsive. At the instruction of the multiple geniuses at the Apple store, I've restored the phone numerous times and set it up as a new device to no avail, and have lost app data every time. I've had three different phones now, and the genius cannot resolve my issue. they've even done what's called a DFU mode restore to restore the device firmware, yet no fix. Is anyone having similar issues? I'm starting to think its a software issue, although the apple store kept replacing my phone with a "remanufactured phone" even though I was within the 30 day return period. When I asked to get a new phone from the box, they told me it couldn't be done since I had my device replaced with a repair model already.

I suffer same. AppleCare can't seem to solve the problem. I did a restore from backup. Then I did a restore as new phone (virgin). Then I did a restore as a new device and then backed up from a stored backup (which does not replace media). To no avail. Some days it works fine, and on others it's extremely bothersome. The major symptoms:
1. It can take 5+ seconds to delete a photo.
2. It can take 10+ seconds for the camera app to activate. In many instances, the moment is long gone.
3. Switching from camera to video can take 5+ seconds.
4. Saving a photo that's been optimized in iOS 5 can take 30 seconds. Absurd.
Note that Photos and Camera aren't the only affected applications. What'sApp can have the same issues on occasion. Voice Memos don't respond like they should, either. I suspect that there's some behind-the-scenes operations with network feed to which iOS gives its full attention (contrary to the UX getting full attention is is historically the case). This makes the user interface painfully slow at times — and, as most of us here would agree — painfully annoying. This might have to do with changes designed around iCloud, but I'm not even (yet) using it.
The bottom line is that what used to be a quick, pretty good phone camera is now totally lackluster and unreliable for fast shots. Sometimes I think Apple spends too much time worrying about form and not enough about function.

TS1394 im getting an error message when trying to install the snow leopard application cd 2. need help.

im getting an error message when trying to install the application cd on my Imac os x 10.6.4 what can I do to solve this problem?

Could be many things, we should start with this...
"Try Disk Utility
1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at the top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.
3. Click the First Aid tab.
4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
5. Click Repair. Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
(Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)

Have you checked all the volume settings? Look under sounds. You also might want to try doing a soft reset.

Seems I just have to get used to the sound/tone...Which operator version of the phone you have?Could you record (from other phone) a short video of this sound and put it here (or to YT or any other service)?
My phone has no operator incorporated in it.
Here's a video of the sound.
