Push Notification Fix

I had a problem getting both the Associated Press app push notifications working after recently upgrading from an AT&T 3Gs to a Verizon 4s.  The same day I upgraded, I reset my old phone (for sale on eBay) and installed AP on my new phone, and apparently Apple's Push Notification Service (APNS) got confused about what Device ID the app was installed on.   Bottom line, no amount of reinstalling iOS 5, reinstalling the app, etc. would fix the problem.
Here's what I learned -- APNS will register the uninstall of the app after about a day (I waited 2 days just be sure).  Reinstalled, and was finally getting push notifications!  [Apparently you can manually set the date on your phone to the next day, reinstall the app and that can fix the problem too but I didn't try that.  I found this information trolling a site for developer's working on apps with push feature.]
Hope this helps others -- I tried search for days and most articles had to do with hacktivation/jail breaking issues which didn't apply.
Regards.

  • Yahoo! Mail - No PUSH NOTIFICATIONS From Sleep Via Wi-Fi - Is There A Fix?

    I'm a power user, 100% positive I've got all the settings correct in the iPad. Push is turned to 'on', I've been to the Advanced screen and made sure that Yahoo is individually set to Push as well. While I have the 3G model since Friday's release, I have not set up an ATT account, have Cellular Data turned off. I've got strong wi-fi at work and at home, so no need for ATT yet.
    When I am actively using the iPad, I'll hear the 'ding' and see that I've got new Yahoo Mail. Push works in that scenario. But when the iPad has been sitting with its backlight off, in Sleep on the counter for, say, 20 minutes, I'll hear my iPhone (connected to ATT, not wi-fi) ding-ding-dinging away with new mail notifications while my iPad stays silent.
    Is Yahoo Mail push simply not supported via wi-fi? Is it not supported by the iPad at all?
    I've read many other posts in this forum from other frustrated Yahoo Mail users. Is there a fix?
    TIA

    If I put my iPhone into Airplane mode and then turn on WiFi (effectively making it WiFi only) then Yahoo Mail push won't work. It doesn't matter if the phone is awake or not.
    Yahoo actually states that push mail will only work for the iPhone if you are connected to a carrier. See their troubleshooting guide.
    That said, I don't know if this was changed for the iPad or not.
    Yahoo Push mail appears to be broken today anyway. At least I'm not getting push notifications on either of my Yahoo accounts.

  • Is there a fix for the iTunes push notification problem with Dropbox on iPhone ios 7.0.4

    After updating to IOS 7.0.4 iPhone (which I now regret), when I open the Dropbox App, I get a warning "Connect to iTunes to use Push Notifications". When I push OK, it pops up again, constantly, so I can't even close Dropbox. Is there a fix for this? I've uninstalled and re-instaled Dropbox and checked for updates, but nothing helps. Any ideas?

    Hello CraigNicholson
    You would need to sync with iTunes to get that process to work for you. Check out the article below for more information on how to resolve that issue to get the proper token to use Push Notifications again.

  • My facebook app has stopped updating and send push notifications while not open. How can I fix this?

    My iphone facebook app just recently stopped sending push notifications when I receive messages. It doesn't even show the little red circle on the icon.
    If I open the app all updates will be loaded and when I close out the icon will have the little red circle indicating the amount of unread messages I have. It will not update while the app is closed though.
    Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this?

    Check your Notification Center settings (in the Settings app) to see if you have Facebook blocked on anything.
    If not, just delete the App, reboot your phone, then reinstall from App Store.

  • I reset my iPhone 4 Network settings to fix the push notification problem, but I lost my internet connection. How do I fix it?

    I tried to solve the "connect to iTunes to receive push notifications"-problem by resetting my network settings, but it only caused me to lose my internet connection when using 3G. Now I can't do anything with this stupid phone. How do I fix it? I don't want to reset anything anymore, I'm sick of this new iOs update, it seriously messed up my phone and I can't do anything properly anymore. Any help?
    And btw, I would also like to get the push notifications back on. Connecting to iTunes did absolutely nothing. Resetting the network settings only made my situation worse. Help please!

    Hi there Julia,
    Ahh The iPhone isn't "stupid" it's been called "stupid" because you are frustrated at the situation , but try
    Load iTunes. Backup your phone. Make sure it is backed up !! Run restore. This will get rid of the error! And please what ever you do , do not skip the back up!
    Thanks,

  • How to fix push notifications?

    ok so i did a resart on my iphone and i downloaded all my apps, but i opened snapchat and accidently clicked "dont send push notifications".  and now i dont end up looking at the snapchats until 2-3 hours later becuase i dont get a notification.  so i tried to fix it by going into the notification center options and changing things around, etc.  and that didnt work so i deleted the app from my phone and icloud so i deleted all data.  but that didnt work since ios keeps all old info.  and i also opened up the system files and looked under there but i could find the app.  now im out of options becuase i dont want to resart my phone again, but im thinking its the only way of fixing it?  does any one have an answer for me?

    If on wifi try ethernet. Make sure DNS is set to automatic (settings - general - network). Go to istumbler (Mac) or netstumbler (PC) to get a report of the network, look for signal strength and noise.

  • Whenever i open certain apps i get the connect to itunes for push notifications over and over again and im unable to play the game, how do i fix this?

    hey guys i have a question,
    so i have the same problem for two of my apps, one is biike race, and the other game is snap chat. so each time i open one of these games i repeatedly get the "connect to itunes for push notifications" box coming up, and im unable to play the game, and i have to click my home button multiple times to get back to the main screen. i dont understand why this is happening and maybe you could help me out.

    There are a few other threads in this forum regarding this issue. It appears to me that this was once an issue with the iPhone, but has now started up again after the upgrade to iOS 4. My iPod Touch is ~ 2 years old and has had absolutely no problems. It is not jailbroken or altered in any way.
    This pop-up started for me after upgrading to iOS 4. I did the restore to factory, reinstalled my apps and the problem returned. It appears my push notifications are working, which is good, but I have to click through the pop-up every time I enter an app that uses notifications.
    This will go away when Apple fixes it.

  • Fix push notifications

    I really tried make my girlfriend use Skype. And I almost achieved it. Almost.
    From some OS updates and Skype updates until now, it became impossible for her to receive messages via push notifications.
    I install Skype on her Windows Phone, login and everything works. But some time later she simply stops receiving messages. Yesterday the messages didn't came even when I open the app.
    Most of the times, /showplaces shows she is "online" on Windows Phone and on Windows 8. The Windows 8 PC is turned off, so the only real active endpoint is Windows Phone.
    Yesterday, /showplaces gave me an "MSNP offline" or something like that.
    If I logout from her Skype and login again on her WP, push notifications work for some time.
    If it helps, she owns a Lumia 925, with Windows Phone 8.1. And she commonly close apps by killing them (hold the back button and swipe the apps down). She doesn't like those apps staying "open".

    I have 2 x 3GS upgraded to IOS 5.01 last night. One via OTA, one via cable with itune.
    After the upgrade push service for BOTH devices ceased to work. (iMessage never work, Whatsapp used to worked before the upgrade)
    For example when I send a Whatsapp message to these devices they would not received it until the user actually activate the app.
    I have also tried "Reset Network Connections" on both devices but it doesn't fix the issue.

  • My Iphone wont send push notifications for the app Telegram, what do I do to fix it?

    When my Iphone is locked the push notifications will work for every app but one. My telegram app wont push notifications when someone messages me, what setting can I change to fix it?

    Hey gingertodd0911,
    Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    This article has information that may help you resolve the issue with no push notifications for that app on your iPhone 5s.
    About Notifications on iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch - Apple Support
    Not getting notifications for a specific app
    Push notifications require an active Wi-Fi or cellular connection. If you’re not getting notifications for a specific app, try these steps:
    Go to Settings > Notifications to verify that the app supports notifications. If notifications do not appear in the Notification Center, make sure that the Notification Center setting for the app is enabled.
    Make sure you’re signed in to your Apple ID.
    If you’ve recently installed an app or restored a backup, open the app to start getting notifications.
    So long,
    -Jason
