Pixi able to have diffrent ringtones for different callers??

So after about 4 years I finally had to get rid of my trusty Treo 650. I went with the Pixi and just got it a few hours ago. So far I like the phone, but have not been able to figure out how to set up different ringtones for different callers. I am on call with my work and having a distinct ringtone for when work calls me is super important (they showed up as NO CALLER ID on the 650 if that helps figure this out) . Also it was nice having a few other distinct ringtones so I knew right away who was calling and made it easier to decide if I wanted to take the phone out of my pocket to talk to them. So I guess long story short:
1. Does the Pixi support distinct ringtones for different callers?
2. If so where do I set that up?
3. If not does anyone have any idea if this will be something that can/will be addressed in an upcoming software update?

So after playing with my phone some more I figured out how to give contacts distinct ringtones...but I still havne't figured out how to give "uknown callers" (at least thats what the Treo 650 called them) a distinct ringtone. This ringtone is the most important one due to the fact that when work calls me they come up as "NO CALLER ID" (once again thats what the Treo 650 did, been lucky enough to have not been called out in the few hours since I bought the Pixi....yet).
Anyone have any idea how to set up a distinct ringtone for "uknown callers" in the Pixi??

Can I have a ringtone for people on my contact list and a different tone for unknown people?

I want to have a ringtone for people one my contact list and a different tone for people not on my contact list, which for me is always commercial that I do not even want to pick up.

To do this, you would have to assign the ringtone to each contact individually, and then set the default tone to something different under the Sounds menu in Settings.

Certain damage is ineligible for out-of-warranty service, including catastrophic damage, such as the device separating into multiple pieces, and inoperability caused by unauthorized modifications. However, an iPhone that has failed due to contact with liquid may be eligible for out-of-warranty service.

After ios7 upgrade, I cannot select different ringtone for different phone #

I had set up different ringtones for specific phone numbers but after ios7 upgrade, all the phone numbers ring with the default ringtone. The ringtones are still individually assigned correctly when I look in the addresses book. I have even tried changing an assigned ring tone to something else & heard the new ring tone when it was selected, but when the number was called, I just got the default ringtone.
Any ideas or solutions?

Hello ccrjon,
Thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing with Messages after upgrading to iOS 7.
The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPhone:
Double-click the Home button.
Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
Swipe the app up to close it.
You can find the full article here:
iOS: Force an app to close
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching the Messages app, I recommend restarting your phone and then resetting if it's still not working:
Restarting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
You can find the full article here:
iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
If the issue persists, the last thing I recommend is backing up and restoring your iPhone:

Is it possible to have unique pictures for different iChat accounts?

Hello -
I am new to Macs and am setting up multiple iChat accounts (Google chat, facebook, work, etc.). However, the work picture seems to be overwriting my picture in Google. Ideally I could have my casual Google picture and my more formal work picture coexist under a single iChat group of accounts.
I haven't found a way to do this yet. Any suggestions?
Messages version 7.0.1
Thanks!

Hi,
Although this was possible in earlier version of iChat it is not possible in Messages.
In earlier Versions you could set up separate Buddy lists (the then default)
At each Buddy List pic you could call down the change drop down and select a Pic.
It could be done for each Buddy list.
In Messages when you do this the Pic changes in all Buddy Lists.
NOTES
Changing the pic this way overrides the normal Choice which is the Contacts (Formerly Address Book) pic.
Changing the Address Book > My Card pic will override the Mac Users Account pic which is the default for that.
Put another way when you create a Mac user Account you get to chose a pic that is shown in the Login list (Also System Preferences > Users and Groups > your account).
This gets pulled to the Contacts/Address Book as the My card is created with your other details.
That is turn is used by Messages (or iChat in Earlier versions)
You can change them so that your have three different Pictures.

A problem no one seems to be able to have an answer for

Im still having the problem of not being able to retreve my emails because of a port 110 problem. I think it is probably because of the internet settings that i have no control over but it did work until around the time i installed the 2007 security updates.
The server error encountered was: The server "pop.1and1.co.uk" cannot be contacted on port 110.
It works for about an hour every week at a random time but other than that it just give me that message in a split second, as i click get mail i get the message straight away. Doesnt even look like its trying to connect.
It does work fine over Airport though. What could possibly cause it not to work over ethernet when it used to be fine?
thanks for any help,
Steve Cooper

For people to try to help you would need to provide a bit of detail, like what the wireless card connects to, and how that is connected, and what is at the other end of the ethernet cable, and is all this at home or at work ... for starters.

How to have seperate iaccounts for different people in family

My son has an ipod that I set up with my email information. I have purchased a iphone5. We get each other's messages, share the apps and can't facetime each other. I understand that they need to be seperate but how do I do that and not lose the music/apps for that device?
Thanks for any help!!!

Yes.

How do I have dual monitor for different windows

I wanted to use two monitors. One to monitor my file while the other as my working window. I am using Imac Intel Duo Core 17" and I heard that I need to buy the adapter. If I buy the adapter, what else need I click so that the FCE can be split into 2 separate monitors. Is there a function? Has anyone done this before?

You can change this in the System Preferences>Display, but a second monitor should default to a dual monitor arrangement. You just have to drag the windows you want onto the second monitor.

How Can I set Specific RingTone for one person and general ringtone for all?

Hello All,
I have a problem with ringtone. I want to set specific ringtone for manager in my 99 series ip phone. Customer needs to know when manager calls him, that is why he told me that he wants to set specific ringtone for Manager.
Thanks a lot

Hi Bahlul,
I don't see such a feature on CUCM where you can have a separate ringtone for a Directory number based on the calling party number. Even to have separate ringtones for different lines on the same IP phone you need to play with Distinctiveringlist.xml , but that too does not fit your requirement as it will always be the same ringtone for all the calls on that line. You may probably get this feature through some third party solution but i am not sure if it would be worth it for applying it on one phone only.

Does anyone know when Apple will make the iphone able to put ringtones for text messages..

after sitting in a group of friends at a cook out i heard peoples phones ring with like the transformer ringtone, a song ringtone and a funny ringtone. but to my surprise it was from a text message, i felt so left out cause all i had were those pre programmed tones. i was hoping that that would be something that apple would update and let us have but i yet to find any app or update that did it. so i lost the battle with friends that they should get a iphone cause its amazing. and now they got one up on me saying the evo, blackberry, and droid are better then the iphone. i hope i'm not the only one that feels that we should have special ringtones for text messages too.. i hope someone at apple reads this.

You and your friends base the merits of iPhone, evo, Blackberry and droid on the ringtones. wow!
edit: IOS 5 in the fall, will have configurable ringtones for messages. YAAAAAAAAAAAAY
