Notification Sounds Being Delayed

Since I've installed Mountain Lion I've been having a problem with my notification sounds not coming through. For some unknown reason my notification sounds will stop working. Like reminders and emails. Even the sound when an emal is being sent from the Apple mail app (the swooshing sound). But then when I plug in my external speakers through the headphone jack ALL the notifactions sounds and sent emails sounds come through the speakers. It's like all the sounds get buffered and are waiting for me to connect my external. Has anybody had this issue? It's done it on both versions of Mountain Lion.

I have this as well, it's very weird. I updated to 10.8.1, rebooted, repaired permissions, and it is still occurring.

Notification sounds not correct

I thought I posted this earlier this week, but it's nowhere to be found, so here it goes again. I have an iPhone 5 with iOS 7, but this problem started with my iPhone 4S and has continued. All of my notifications play the correct sound, except for Facebook and Twitter. When I receive a Facebook notification, no sound at all plays (except for when I receive a Facebook message). This started after I did an iOS update (not a major one) on my 4S. I have the sound for Twitter notifications set to "Tweet," but it plays the "Tri-Tone" sound instead -- which was also the case on my old iPhone. I have gone in and changed the settings to a bunch of different tones, then back to the ones I want, but to no avail. Any help is appreciated, thanks!

Hey, were you able to come up with ANY info on this problem?
i have had this problem since i got my iphone5 in february/2013, and its continued onto my new iPhone5S.
The best i could come up with, through research and first-hand experience is that the "Facebook" and "twitter" tone options DO work, but only when it is an OUTGOING action YOU PERFORMED (ie a tweet that YOU posted, or a facebook post that YOU posted)
and since newer iphones have facebook and twitter integration, The facebook and Twitter tones also work for facebook Chat/messages that you receive, and twitter direct/instant messages that you receive.
As for the other types of notifications that you get from facebook and twitter (ie. Wall posts,being tagged in photos, twitter mentions/@replies, or notifications from people you are following{if turned on})
:::these notifications seem to fall into the same category of MOST notifications from ANY App that you download from the app store.
It seems thats MOST apps do not have a specific notification sound programmed, and ANY notifications that you have selected to receive are carried out with a "default" Apple Notification tone (which appears to be the classic Tri-Tone).
I have arrived at this conclusion because in the Settings->Sounds menu, only Device Functions are listed and thus able to have their Tone Changed.
ALSO; in Settings->Notification Center, You will notice that when you click on the various 'apps' listed:
*****'Stock' Apps (Messages, Phone, Facetime, Reminders, Calender etc.) have sub-options to change the name of the 'Sound' 's Tone (which appears there)
*****while ALL OTHER Downloaded apps only have a sub-option slider/knob to turn the 'Sound' either 'ON' or 'OFF'
Since there is no option to select a 'Tone' then it is safe to assume that the activated 'Sound' is the Device's default tone.
THEREFORE...if there is no options -WITHIN THE APPLICATION ITSELF- to change the Sound or Tone of their Notifications...the question/objective Now seems to be: How can we change our Device's default Notification Sound?

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

Notification sounds and key click come and go since upgrading to IOS 8.1.3 on iPhone 4s

Has anyone else had issues with the latest IOS update? Since I did it last night, my key click sound and my notification sounds come and go on there own. Even if it is not on silent.

Hi kdbecky1,
If you are having issues with your sounds on your iPhone being inconsistent, you may want to try some things to troubleshoot.
First, quit all running applications and test again -
Force an app to close in iOS - Apple Support
Next, I would try restarting and if needed resetting the iPhone -
Restart or reset your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch
If the issue is still present, you may want to restore the iPhone as a new device -

Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

Annoying notification sound - help figuring out source?

There's any annoying notification sound (sounds like "boop boop") that I consistently here while I'm logged into the network at university. I thought maybe it was a notification every time someone new joined or left the network but I've been watching as people pop up in the list in Finder and the notifications do not coincide with the appearance of people's computers in that list. I don't ever hear the noise at home, so I assume it's something to with being logged into the network at school.
I'm fairly certain it's not related to any app I have installed because I've had almost everything shut down and I still hear it.
Can anyone help me figure this out?

Hm, something seems wrong here, but I don't know what. wget ends with the same error, but downloading through FireFox works.
Honestly, I don't know what to fix or how.
Edit: after some more search I see that other also have a problem with this: http://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=43406 and bug report: http://bugs.archlinux.org/task/9299

No, sounds like when you dropped it an cracked the screen it may have also damaged the logic board or the repair person damaged a cable.

How to create unique notification sounds for email on Droid Incredible 4G LTE

I have three separate email accounts pushed to my Droid Incredible 4G LTE. I can't for the life of me figure out how to set up unique notification sounds for each email account. It was a snap to do on my old Blackberry.
Same question for flagging individuals within my contact list. (E.g., if my wife calls it makes one sound, if a client calls it makes a different sound.)
Does anyone know how to do this, or, as they say, is there an app for that???
Thanks in advance!

I don't think you can on the email but got to each contact and edit them for different sounds, I'm not sure if it works on that new phone that way but as they don't have a dedicated room yet for it you had nowhere else to ask htc has good forums also

TS4002 How can I get a notification sound when an email arrives?

I am using Safari and icloud to manage and check emial. I am not receiving a notification sound. How can I get an audiable sound to alret me?

Thank you. I meant new mail alert sound, but I didn't word it right I just want to know when new mail comes in, but its not happening. I have done different methods, including the one you suggest, but it will alert sometimes and most of the times it doesn't. For a while when I got my phone (Iphone4) and downloaded IOS6 it worked. It stopped working when I had to reset my phone to factory settings a week ago.
IOS has been updated and I have the latest software,. but it will not alert me each time I get mail. In few occassions I get the Ding of new mail, but for 15 mails I get maybe 2.
Thanks for replying to my question

Is there a way to lengthen the notification sound

My husband gets texted at night when he's on call for business and needs to be woken by it...the notification sound is rather short and may not wake him. Is there a way to make it play longer or to make it go off again if not answered?
Thanks!

There's also Missed Call from the market. I don't use it, but know a number of people who've been very happy with it.

IS THERE A WAY TO CHANGE THE NOTIFICATION SOUNDS FOR REMINDERS?

IS THERE A WAY TO CHANGE THE NOTIFICATION SOUNDS FOR REMINDERS?

Yes you can, in the sense that this is an "Alert" sound you've set for the whole Mac software, and of course this is set in System Preferences > Sounds > Sound Effects. This will change the "alert sound" for the whole Mac.
So, No, you can't change only this particular Alert sound. If you could, it would be done in System Preferences > Notifications, and your only option there is whether you want the sound or not (Chkbox on "Play sound when receiving Notifications")

Is there a way to change the notification sound for the FB app

is there a way to change the notification sound for the FB app?

Go to: Settings, Sounds and look for Facebook Post. You can click on it and select which sound you want.

My Razr HD will no longer play notification sounds after updating with 4.4.2, it also doesn't use the ringtone that I have selected.

I've tried setting different ringtones, and notification sounds, but it still doesn't work. Any other ideas?

Thanks for confirming CasMcc. Are you stating the notifications are working now? What specific notifications are you having difficulties with? You said calls, messages and media are now working. If something changed it would have to be on the device itself. This issue would not be account related.

Bluetooth connection notification sound

Does anyone know how to turn off the notification sound which plays when the Razr Maxx bluetooth connects with a car system? It is extremely annoying to have this play every time you get in the car and start it especially if you are running errands and make several stops.

Most notifications that come from an app (texts, emails, etc.) can be shut off individually, through that app. The bluetooth connection notification, however, AFAIK cannot. The only place it would make sense to be would be, from your homescreen, is menu>settings>wireless & networks>bluetooth settings. There is also an advanced bluetooth settings on this screen, but my phone (HTC Rezound) does not have an option to turn off that sound in either of these.
