Notification sounds in 3rd party apps

I'd like to use different notification sounds for Facebook and my news apps. Can this be done in iOs 5?

If this were possible, the option would be available at Settings > Notifications > FaceBook and for your news app.

3rd party app alerts no longer show up in the notification center

I upgraded my iPhone 5 to iOS7 last week and ever since alerts for 3rd party apps (like gmail and others) haven't been showing up in the notification center. I've checked my settings for both the notification center and for my individual apps to make sure they weren't reset, made sure my apps were up to date (not all of them have had updates since iOS7 was released but some definitely have), tried toggling them on and off and rebooting, but so far nothing has helped. The banner alerts work, but nothing pops up in the notifications. Has anyone else experienced this or have any other ideas how to fix it?
I've generally been pretty pleased with the new version of iOS, but I'm hating everything about the changes made to the notification center. Even if I do get my notifications to work again, I hate that we're forced to have that "Today" tab even if you switch the summaries off! I like the unified page from iOS6 much better.

Hi cyn999!
I have an article that can help address this question:
iOS: Understanding notifications
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3576
As you can see in the screenshot, the weather does show up in the notification center, but it is in text form instead of icon form in iOS 7. Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

Accelerometer Barely Works in Native Apps, Perfectly Fine in 3rd Party Apps

Slightly weird issue. I had the issue in 2.2.1 but I'd hoped it would resolve itself when I installed 3.0. Basically Changing orientation in Safari will pretty much not work at all, or in email, messaging etc. But if I run a 3rd party app that relies on the accelerometer, it works perfectly fine. For example I restored my phone entirely with 3.0, no jailbreaking, nor did I restore my backup from iTunes, so a completely clean iPhone, no data or 3rd party apps at all. It still didn't work, I installed a Liquid simulator app which I thought would make a good tester, and once again, perfectly fine, not a single issue. For the record, the accelerometer in native apps isn't entirely dead, shake to shuffle works fine, and there was one point where I had the phone on it's side for a while and it eventually dropped to landscape, but then I couldn't get it back again.
So what more can I do? Is there a setting somewhere that I'm missing? I can only assume I can rule out a hardware issue since the liquid app works fine.
So to summarise:
3.0 Software, clean install, no backup restored. Accelerometer barely works in native apps. 3rd party apps, all works fine.

sounds like a good reason to go to telstra and demand the 3gs as a replacement for your faulty phone

Airplay on Apple TV not working after upgrading to iOS 8 (3rd Party Apps)

Hi
I hope someone can help me with this issue.
After upgrading the iPhone 5 and iPad 2 to iOS 8.1, as well as upgrading the Apple TV to the latest version, I now end up with ** some ** videos as well as photos that can't be played over AirPlay on 3rd Party Apps. (Note: I have no issues with 'mirroring' from the iPad to the AppleTV though.)
1.   It can play .mp4 and .mov files;
2.   It could NOT play .mkv or .avi files - there's audio but NO video
3.   It can play the photos and videos from Apple's own apps (i.e. 'Videos' and 'Photos') however (i.e. with both audio and video)
4.   It could NOT display any photos from 3rd Party Apps
5.   This is happening to more than one 3rd Party Apps (i.e. no display of photos; and no video though there's audio)
Fyi, I've emailed to the respective Developers, but after reading some of the threads in this forum, I suspect that the root cause could be with iOS 8 (as well as the latest software update to AppleTV) as I didn't have this problem at all under iOS 7.
Anybody has any solution?
Thanks in advance.

How can I forward an SMS as an email , i have doing this daily on 9900, surprised to miss this on Q10, i am ready to buy an 3rd party app also, if required, it is must for me.

1. when i read an sms, there is option to forward as email in 9900.
Since i am using Q10, i can not do this.
I need this immediately.
Anybody can help??
I am ready to buy any 3rd party app also, if it can provide this without slowing down the performance.
2. Further, i can not sms from contacts screen. There is no option to sms , when i select a contact. I have to go to SMS and there type contact name , how can i enable this?
3. If i receive a call and i want to send sms to the person, i can not tap on called no and choose and option to sms him. I have to copy that number, go to SMS app and use that no to sms. If i am in a meeting , it is long process and kill focus in meeting. In android, there is one swipe to reject call and send an sms that i am in meeting. Can we achieve this basic features in Q10..

I can forward a SMS as an email on my Q10.
open the SMS and hold down on the text, this opens a side menu with the "share" icon on it (like a Y),
Then you can select how you want to share, eg SMS, Email BBM etc.
Hope this helps?

ALL of my 3rd party apps open and close immediately

after connecting to itunes after a few months now ALL of my 3rd party apps open and close immidiately when i try to open them

First try a hard reset. To do this, press and hold both the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons together long enough for the Apple logo to appear. If that doesn't help, try downloading a new App free app from the app store to see if that helps.

How can I restore 3rd party app data from my backup in the cloud

First a brief history. I use the iCloud to backup my iPad 2 and hardly ever synch it to itunes on my computer. I got the new iPad and restored the backup of my iPad 2 onto it. All was fine except that an issue I had on my iPad 2's Safari had transferred over to my new iPad. That's is for another discussion. Anyhow I went to the genius bar and they said to just setup my new iPad as a new device and then manually install everything back on it. Stuff like mail, contacts, etc, would be reloaded from the cloud. So I did and I noticed that one of my 3rd party apps, MadPad, had none of my saved data. Does anyone know of a way to restore 3rd party app data from the iCloud? Is there some sort of utility out there that would do this? I don't want to restore it from my previous iPad 2 backup because it will reintroduce the Safari problem back onto my new iPad.
Thanks!

Assuming that you even have a backup with the data in it, you have no choice but to use a backup in order to restore that data. That is the idea behind backing up to iCloud. If that is the only backup that you have - then that is the one that you have to use.
But if the backup is bad - or had corrupt data - then you will end up with the corrupt data again. You cannot selectively restore app data from a backup. you restore all settings and data - or nothing at all.

ITunes Match and 3rd Party Apps - iPad/iPhone

With the myriad of apps out there that integrate with iTunes, why is it that nearly none of them offer support for iTunes Match? (And, a seemingly cool one that claims to offer support -- "BeatBlaster" -- http://www.beatblaster.com/ -- that has all the features I'm looking for, isn't available in the App Store in the US). I'm really surprised at the lack of information on this topic on the web... A Google search for it only pulls up articles that are 2-3 years old. The best information I could find was that the API toolset made available to developers is either really limited, or it's just not available at all... and that's in an article from 2011. Are you telling me that Apple is STILL -- 3+ years later -- limiting access to developer tools for iTunes Match integration (or just has never created any)? I understand that I'm asking about something that could be considered "outside" of Apple (3rd Party apps), but I'm just really looking for someone that might be in the know on this stuff... And, I'm hoping that that person can clue the rest of us in on "what's up".
Bottom line, I'm looking for a clock radio app that supports iTunes Match... I've got our Master Bedroom and Bath rigged up with in-ceiling speakers, attached to a bluetooth receiver, with a wall-mounted iPad serving as the "jukebox". When my dang iPad doesn't drop the WiFi connection, it's pretty slick. I'd just like to have a single app that a) offers a large, well-visible clock, b) allows me to browse my iTunes Match library of songs and play them as I'd like, and c) have a "play my iTunes music as an alarm" option. I know... directly d/l-ing songs to the iPad is an option, but it defeats the whole purpose of iTunes Match, which I subscribe to because my music library is WAY too big to fit on the iPad (or my iPhone).
Anyway, any information or suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

You'll have to ask the software makers this question. It is up to the 3rd party vendors, not Apple, to provide the features you are asking for.

I recently purchased a 4S. I now have 2 files in my iCloud both with my name. One from my 3gs and one from my 4S. The problem is the data history of all my games and 3rd party apps did not transfer over to my 4S. Is there a way to merge the two in icloud?

I backed up my 3gs to the iCloud and when I synced my 4S, it did not transfer my game histories or my 3rd party app histories. When I look at my iCloud storage, it shows both phones under the same name. Is there a way to merge them together in iCloud? I tried adding the account to my 4S but since they are both named the same, it says I already have that account added! Help!!

Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming you have finished with your old backup.....
You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > backup & storage > manage......

How do i print sms messages from my iphone without a 3rd party app?

How do I print a complete SMS message from my iphone without using a 3rd party app?

If you have an AirPrint compatible printer, or you have a print app, then you could take a screenshot of each page of the message and then print them. Otherwise, there is no native solution to print SMS messages on the iPhone.

3rd party apps from someone other then Apple

Does anyone now if you can get 3rd party apps without jail braking and without using Apples application store. I found a website that offers apps that I really want and was very disappointed to see none of the in the Apps store and dont know why nobody made them or offered them there. For $24.99 I can get all these apps that I was really looking forward to seeing in the apps store but werent:
NES System : Nintendo with all the games
Customization : Were I can custom every aspect of the I-Phone from I-cons to backgrounds
Screen shot : A app where I can take a picture of anything that my I-Phone is viewing at that time like from a game or a website ETC.
Video Recorder : I cant believe there was no video recorder in the apples web app release it is just something every phone should have
MMS : Picture messaging, I mean I dont know how many times I recieve a picture message and have to wait till I get home to go on my computer to go to a website just to see them. How long it takes also with normal broadband just to see a simple picture.........This is a must have app
Ringtone: Now all you have to do is select a song from your music library and put it to you contacts that easy no cutting or editing it down to size, no extra programs to make them with and no money to spend to make them
Also much more that I dont feel like describing like:
Instant Messenger
YouTube Downloader
Books
VNC

Wow don't try to send a MMS to someones cell phone from the e-mail option this was a nightmare. I tried it to see if it would work and I received a message that the attempt didn't succeed so it kept trying and trying automatically. Then I get a phone call from the person I sent it to telling me it work but for me to quit sending it. I said I only sent it once then he said I have like 15 already so I check out my phone and it is really warm I looked at it and the battery went from fully full to a little less then half empty. So I am like what the heck so I go into my e-mail account and I see there is an e-mail demon meaning there was an attempt to send a e-mail but it didn't succeed. Normally when this happens it will make another try just to make sure it wasn't a service error well apparently my cell phone is continuing to retry to send the message so I have the phone trying my e-mail account trying while the person who the message is being sent to is receiving everyone........So I had to delete every message being sent on my e-mail account, I had to delete my E-mail account on my phone, and I had to shut it off for 30 minutes to see if this works it not I don't know what to do and my nightmare continues as well for the person who's phone keeps blowing up with the MMS message and I am wasting all of his text on his plan.......
Thanks for the bad advice

Updated Carrier Settings - All 3rd party apps now crash on startup.

Updated the new Carrier Settings today. Now all 3rd party apps on the iPhone crash on startup. Am I the only one experiencing this?
Rebooted several times
Running 3.1 (7C144)
Thanks!

Just wanted to post in the event someone else had the same issue. I did a restore and reset. All third party apps went away (poof).
I had to manually re-install my apps from the app-store. Thank goodness iTunes tracks your previous purchases.

Can't open any 3rd party apps - they crash on startup

I've been an iPhone owner since the first model (I have iPhone 4 now), and I've never seen anything like this.
Last night my iPhone ran out of charge. This morning, when I plugged it in it had to charge for a few minutes before it would turn on. Once it turned on, it said "waiting for activation: this may take a while". I thought this was strange, because my phone is already activated. I'm in an area with no reception, though, so maybe that was the issue.
Once the phone turned on, I tried to open some of my apps. But none of the 3rd party apps would open! When I tap them they appear to open but they shut down / crash right away. Strangely, however, all of the Apple apps that come with the phone will open without a problem (Maps, Mail, Safari, iCal, etc.).
I tried a hard reset but that didn't help. I'm away from home so I can't do an erase and store, and I really need access to some of the data in those apps.
Any ideas?

I did the same this week. I did a sync and now I can't access any of my apps. They appear to open then shut right back down. Have tried to resync, update and about anything else that may fix and nothing. Paying an aweful lot of money just for texting and phone usage. Anyone know how to take care of this issue? I have a 3G phone and been using it for a year without this problem

Backing up 3rd party apps with Time Machine

After what started out as a simple question...why won't my iChat stay connected now that i have installed OS Lion and spending over 2 hours with Apple Phone support and trying all the known trouble shoots, they told me the only thing I can now do is Back Up my MacBook Pro and do a HD erase and reinstall everything. So, this has me a little freaked out! I have never done this and am afraid of the results. In particular, my 3rd party applications such as all my Adobe Suite applications. I no longer have access to the initial start up and install Creative Suite CDs! At first apple support said Time Machine WOULD NOT back up 3rd party apps. Then I get an email and said they were mistaken and it WILL with a link to an article. Yet I see nothing about it with in the article I was sent. SO, has anyone successfully reinstalled their Mac from a Time Machine Backup along with any 3rd party apps?
What is also frustrating is that I asked if I could just go back to Snow Leopard since I had no issues with iChat using that OS. I was told I would have to do the same erasing of my HD either way to reinstall that OS. Ugh.
Thanks in advance!

Yes, as long as you let TM do a full disc backup (that is, you do not exclude anything in the TM backup settings) you will have a backup that allows a full system restore - puts everything back just as it was.
You can also clone your system using the shareware app SuperDuper or the donation-ware app CarbonCopyCloner
http://www.shirt-pocket.com/SuperDuper/SuperDuperDescription.html
http://www.bombich.com/
Both of these apps will make a true clone (literally, a bit-by-bit copy) of your hard drive onto an external drive. This clone will actually be bootable itself (you plug in the drive and hold the option key during startup then select the clone to boot from). You would boot from the clone, then reverse-clone it back onto your internal hard drive.
If you are really serious about being highly confident of not loosing files, you could use both - I keep a TM backup on one drive, and 2 clones on separate bus-powered hard drives.
P.S. even if you had not had any issues, you really, REALLY should be keeping regular, up to date backups anyway - things go flooey without warning sometimes and you risk loosing everything on your machine if you DON'T keep regular backup copies available.
