Notifications on my iphone aren't working

Notifications on my iphone and ipad aren't working, even though I have triple checked the notification settings on both devices. The settings are as they should be, do not disturb is OFF, and still I don't receive notifications until I manually open apps.

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.
If you are still having issues, restart your iPhone and then reset all settings:

  • Movies converted to iPhone aren't working.

    When I convert a video into iPhone format it gives me a blank white screen, I can hear the sound effects and everything one would expect to hear from say an action film but there is no visual, I would really appreciate some help figuring this out.

  • Email notifications on iphone 5 not working

    Email notifications not working on iphone 5 but worked fine on 4

    Hi, well I have been on chat line with Apple for hours today on this issue, finally being directed to a Senior Advisor.  The problem, after working through all the settings on my iphone since updating to 8.1.3, was in Settings, Mail, Accounts and Fetch New Data.  One of my email addresses (the one I use all the time)  had not got mail attached to it and manually fetch mail was selected and now it is ok, having added a new account to include the email address and fetch email every 15 minutes.  So all sorted now.  Thank you for your help anyway.  Much appreciated.

  • I have forgotten my appleID password and the email it is linked to is deactivated, security questions aren't working. This is on my iPhone and iTunes acs so I can't sync with my new computer. How do I merge AppleID accounts and shut down the old one?

    I have forgotten my appleID password and the email it is linked to is deactivated, security questions aren't working. This is on my iPhone and iTunes acs so I can't sync with my new computer. How do I merge AppleID accounts and shut down the old one (when I have no password and the security questions aren't working?)

    You cannot merge Apple ID accounts, that has never been supported.
    You can contact the Apple ID Security folks per the listing in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 and they can help reset security questions and get the account working.

  • My iPhone sounds aren't working why is this?

    My iPhone sounds such as: Keyboard clicks, new message tones, lock sounds, new mail sounds, or any type of alerts aren't working, music also isn't audible. When I plug the headphones in I can hear everything, but without the headphone I can't hear anything except for the ringer. Why is this? Is there something wrong with the headphone port? or is there something wrong with the phone? I've had this phone since late February of 2008 and haven't experienced this problem until today. I have turned it off and on and that doesn't seem to help. Any idea what this is?

    You know what, that did the trick! I think something was wrong with the headphone port because I clicked the side volume button and it kept coming up as "Headphone (ringer)" I put the headphones in and out a couple of times and then it went back to normal. Thanks for the tip!

  • My iphone 5 clock is not working properly.  I've tried to reset it, and update the clock automatically and manually, and the time is still off.  My alarms aren't working because of this, and I need my phone to work properly.

    Automatic time is a function of your Wireless carrier.  Your post indicates that your iPhone (5 or 5c) is running iOS 7.0.6.  The current version is 7.1.1.  You might try updating your device to the current iOS version.

  • What can I do about My iPhone 4 speakers that aren't working?

    I bought my iPhone 4 in November of 2010 and the phone fried before my one year warranty was up. I took it to the apple store and after they found no solution they gave me a replacement. I am wondering did my year start over or not? My speakers aren't working I'm not sure if its in the warranty to fix broken speaker but, I'd like to try because I cannot play the wonderful songpop or talk on the phone. Please help

    The Warranty duration is the Warranty of the Original iPhone. If that Warranty has now lapsed, then the replacement has a 90 day Warranty from when you received the replacement iPhone.

    The problem isn't solved after the restore, shall I bring my phone to the AppStore? Will they give me a new one? Or I should pay for that. Warranty is until December 2013;)

    I've had my iPhone 4 for about 4 months now, and suddenly some apps aren't working. They open and appear to work, but as soon as you try to do something it doesn't load. I tried deleting the app and reinstalling it. I also force shut down my phone. I synced it to iTunes. Nothing is working. Does anyone know what I can do?

    Basic troubleshooting steps oultlined in the User Guide are restart, reset, restore from backup, restore as new device.
    You need to go through all steps in succession until your problem is solved.  If going through ALL these steps fails to resolve your issue, then you'll need to bring your phone into Apple for evaluation and possible replacement.

  • Why did the Notification Center and Control Center stop working?

    After updating ios 8, Notification and Control Centers stop working from time to time. I can't swipe up or down. I have to use the Assistive Touch to bring them on screen. Restarting the iPhone make them usable again. But afyet a while, it happened again.
    Now, iOS 8.1.2. Last update, the Centers used to appear again. But 8.1.2, they just stopped working.
    How how can I fix it?

    Hello Eric Grylls,
    Thanks for contributing to the Apple Support Communities.
    If you're not able to access Notification Center or Control Center (other than using Assistive Touch) on your iPhone 5s since the latest update, I recommend following these troubleshooting steps mentioned in this article:
    iOS: Not responding or does not turn on - Apple Support
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, or the if the screen remains black or shows a persistent Apple logo, try restoring with iTunes:
    Connect the device to your computer and open iTunes.
    If the device appears in iTunes, select and click Restore on the Summary pane. Learn more about restoring iOS software.
    If the device doesn't appear in iTunes, try to force the device into recovery mode, and then restore it.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    All the best,
    Jeremy

  • All day calendar events not being displayed in the notification centre for iphone 5 post ios 7 upgrade. Please help. Is it a bug?

    All day calendar events not being displayed in the notification centre for iphone 5 post ios 7 upgrade. Please help. Is it a bug?
    With iOS 6, the all day events showed up in the notification centre but it lacks in the upgrade iOS 7.

    Same problem here. Some people pointed out that all-day events do show up in their notification center, but that seems only to be the case for birthdays (and only as text like the weather). I've tried it myself on my iPhone and iPad and it did work for birthdays but not for any other all-day events. I already sent this to Apple as a product feedback as well, as should everyone of you. The more people mention it, the faster Apple's going to fix this issue. In its current state, notification center is not a very helpful feature in my opinion. There's absolutely no point in not showing all-day events in the 'today' calendar overview.
    Here's a link to the product feedback page: http://www.apple.com/feedback/
    I posted my message in the iPhone section since I couldn't find a page specifically dedicated to iOS 7.
    I really love the look & feel of iOS 7 but it's kinda sad to see notification center not tapping its full potential.
    Cheers!

  • My sound effects aren't working, how do I get them to work again?

    On my iPad my sounds effects aren't working and it's on loud. I've been into music but it won't let me change the volume. It's just dark grey and won't let me touch it. Also the volume control on the side when I put it onto loud the sound effect pops up in the grey box but doesn't let me change the volume there either... I've also been through the settings and cannot find anything or anywhere where it will let me change the volume manually or invade it had been turned off by accident. I can't listen to music or hear when it goes off!!!
    PLEASE HELP!

    Is it still paired to a bluetooth device?
    Is it connected to an AirPlay device?
    This is for iPhone but still applies to iPad:

  • Some Finder Sounds Aren't Working (Trash File and Move File)?

    Last night I noticed that *some of the finder sounds* aren't working (trashing and moving a file/folder) on my mac mini. The rest of the finder sounds seem unaffected (emptying the trash, removing an icon from the dock). I tried some solutions online with limited success.
    Odd things that are happening:
    1) After a reboot, the first time I delete a file or move a folder, the *monitor resets itself*. Kinda like when you change the resolution. My TV loses the feed for a sec and quickly reestablishes it. After this happens, no finder sounds for moving and trashing
    2) I heard some people were having this same problem because of coreaudiod.plist files (Library/Preferences/Audio. When I copy the com.apple.audio.SystemSettings.plist to the desktop these finder sounds return, but just for this file. See http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10465859
    3) I noticed these problems after I started using the Kanex Mini DisplayPort Adapter To HDMI 1080p Video w/ Digital Audio. http://kanexlive.com/products/item.aspx?id=3495 But, I tried switching back to the old setup of a basic minidvd to hdmi and a rca y cable and it made no difference.
    4) I also completely did a fresh install and everything worked fine until late in the process after I did a reboot (see point 1). Is it a third party software problem? I installed the HippoRemoteVNC that allows me to take control of the computer with the iphone. I also have installed Plex, Boxee, XBMC, Perian codecs, Hulu desktop, Quicktime 7, and Transmission.
    System Specs:
    Computer: Mac Mini (Late 2009) - 2.26Ghz, 2GB RAM, 10.6.1
    Monitor: Panasonic TH-42PZ700U 42-Inch 1080p Plasma HDTV
    Video/Audio Connection: Kanex Mini DisplayPort Adapter To HDMI 1080p Video w/ Digital Audio
    Any thoughts? Thanks!!

    Go to your /Applications/Utilities folder and run the Audio MIDI Setup application.
    Confirm settings there match your expectations.
