PUSH NOTIFICATIONS CAUSE ALARM CLOCK TO NOT WORK?

Beware: If you have push notifications turned on and you are using your iPhone's alarm clock as your personal morning alarm clock.. you could be in trouble sometime in the near future.
I've noticed this happening with the AP app: If the AP app sends me a push notification during the night when I'm asleep and I don't happen to wake up and clear the push notification.. than when the time comes for my Alarm to go off at 4:45AM Mon-Fri... because the push notification is sitting 'in front' waiting to be cleared, the alarm doesn't actually go off until you clear out the push notification that is in front of it. This has caused me to be late for work twice before I realized what happened.. so until Apple provides a bug fix for this, I had to turn all push notifications OFF.
Please fix this Apple!

wow. that's a really interesting observation, CTU agent.
i'm having a similar problem -- my alarms, which previously have worked flawlessly, have stopped working. realizing this, i opened alarm clock and saw that all 3 of them were all set to "off." i never did that, myself. but, ok.... so, i turned them all back on.
today, one was supposed to go off at 3pm -- but it didn't. just now (7pm), i opened the alarm clock and noticed that the 3pm alarm was set to "off," again! but i hadn't even opened the clock app since turning them all on, yesterday.
so, something, is causing them to turn off! your theory about push notifications is an interesting one. i'll see if this has any effect on my phone and report back.
either way, this is painful, because i've come to rely upon the iphone for these alarms, since it's always with me. i don't want to have to start wearing a watch that has an alarm, just because the iphone's alarms have stopped working. i hope this issue is identified and fixed pronto.

My iPhone alarm clock is not working. Anyone else?

My iPhone alarm clock is not working. I have the latest software: 6.2.1. I set my alarm at 11:30 pm to go off at 12:30 am and 3:30 am, neither went off. I actually wok up right before 3:30, open up the clock app to see if my alarm was on and both the alarms were set to off. I have been having trouble with alarms similarly the last week or so.

Hi Homer,
I would suggest a re-install of the iPhone to fix this issue.
Make sure to do a full backup of the iPhone before you do this otherwise you may lose some of your data

Push Notification for Facebook App is Not Working Help?

i went to general settings and everything was set to "ON" but it ONLY gives me notifications sometimes..i had a glitch for my Facebook app and was having problems so I decided to uinstall and reinstall and after reinstalling, the push notification seems to ONLY work sometimes and not often anymore. What could be causing this? a malware/infection for iPhone or what could be causing this?

Hi,
Try first to check your facebook account settings--> notification tab.
Try to remove any app like IM or MSN that use facebook messages from the facebook account setting page.
you can also download facebook messanger app. if you create a US account i.e. put a fake US address.
try it:)

N82, sys ver 20.0.062: Alarm clock does not work o...

Anyone had this problem? Alarm just does not come up on "some" days .. Not sure why, but I regularly (once a week) notice that it just does not want to work sometimes, and restarting the system does not help.
Normally, when you set alarm, message pops up saying how many hours you have left till alarm.. And on some cases it does not, and alarm never happens when you want to to be (annoying if you setting alarm for work on Monday morning but it does not come up).
I've tried restarting phone, resetting all alarms, delete/create new alarms, nothing, n o t h i n g helps. The next day it suddenly starts working again..
I've carefully checked all settings (like, work days only, etc..)
but found nothing to explain this problem.

Alarm Clock 2 not working, any suggestions? Help!

Hi everyone,
Alarm Clock 2 didn't wake me up this morning, I tested it, and it seems like the clock on the computer is going to sleep when the computer goes to sleep! Are there any free alarm clock programs out there that work with mountain lion?

Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new). Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.

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.

Alarm Clock won't work. Please Help!

My alarm clock won't work. When I set it to the time and it goes off , the sound does not come on. Can someone please help me.

I have the same problem. The iPod is only a week old and the alarm worked on 30th of December, but today (1st of January) it has refused to work.
I've tried restarting the iPod, force quitting the clock, changing time zone and I've even tried setting an hour ahead & behind, in case the problem was connected with the daylight savings setting on my Mac.
The alarm won't work and I'm stumped!
Edit: just found this on another thread about this very subject...

As KiltedTim mentioned you should be "good to go" in a couple weeks when IOS 8.0 is released to the public for your iPad. Here's more info. Scroll down to the "Send any kind of text message from any of your devices" section:
