Song as Alarm Clock Tone Stopped Repeating with iOS 8

This is a statement of fact rather than a question since the Feedback page doesn't allow me to submit anything.
Since the update to iOS 8, my selected MP3 as my Alarm Clock tone no longer repeats. It used to repeat in iOS 7 until you manually turned off the alarm or the Snooze. Now it only plays once and shuts off. Then the Alarm dialogue box remains open. I've overslept twice because of this problem.
I would also like to be able to use my own created ringtones as my Alarm. I am able to use them for my Voicemail and other Alerts, but there's no option for that within the Alarm Clock. Only purchased ringtones.

Happened to me, too (first morning after upgrading). One of those reasons I hate to upgrade and always put it off as long as possible...you never know what they're going to f**k up for you. Add my voice to the chorus of dissatisfied alarm clock users. Why DO they mess with stuff like this?!?

  • IPhone 4 stop working with ios 6.1

    iPhone 4 stopped working with ios 6.1, visited apple first time, restored phone and worked, less than 24 hours later stopped working again, back to the store, I told iPhone is out of warranty and they'll replace for $150. iPhone worked fine with previous version, no problem at all. Asked to restore to the previous software version, told can't be done. Why should I pay for a damage caused by a software update. Tec claims that ios 6.1 will not work with my phone because it discovered some hardware malfunction, possible the home button. They can't repair. suggested to go to a third party. I'm a satisfied Apple product user for many years. What happened? Any welp out there?

    Hey.. I have had this issue since yesterday afternoon.. Some people are saying to keep restoring again and again until it finally goes through.. I have done so like 10 times on my MAC and then I used my husband's PC and tried it 4 times.. No success.. I called apple support, but no help came from there at the end, and the only thing they were able to suggest to me is to sell me a new phone just like mine for a discounted price.. **** NO
    Anyways after about 18h of search and stress I came across this link:
    http://techglobex.blogspot.com/2012/06/downgrade-from-ios-6-beta-firmware-to.htm l
    That will only make it possibe to go backward.. You will end up back with the IOS 5, but at least you will have a working phone and it will bring back all your contacts and everything else that you ever had backed up on icloud and on your computer. There might be descripencies with the Applications but again this is an issue easily solved, you can always download them back.
    Two more things: One, you do not have to download the old version of the itunes, the newest version worked for me without any issues
    When choosing to download the older IOS 5.1.1, you will need to figure out whether your carrier is GSM or CDMA but you can easily google this info online..
    Well hope that will work for you like it did for me

  • That stopped updating with ios 4.2.1 currently almost every app requires ios 4.3or higher. what do i do with my iphone

    i have problem with my iphone 3G that stopped updating with ios 4.2.1 currently almost every app requires ios 4.3or higher. what do i do with my iphone

    App developers decide on what iOS versions to support with their apps. Also, Apple has identified certain updates that are necessary for particular applications. The only way to continue using certain apps on the iPhone 3G is to not update your apps if they require a higher iOS to operate. When you get ready to update an app, it will say what iOS is works on, and if it requires higher than the iOS you have, do not update. The only other alternative is to replace the device with a newer model.

  • Alarm Clock, Mail and TextFree With Voice

    Alarm Clock:
    I woke up this morning on my own 19 minutes late because my alarm didn't go off! I RELY on that thing to get me up in the morning! When I checked it, it was going off in silent mode but the volume was all the way up and there were no headphones connected... I always make sure that the volume is up on everything, being that every app has it's own volume setting now >:(, every night before I go to bed...
    Mail:
    I'm trying to delete my bulk mail and it's loading only so many at a time. One loading period will pull up maybe nine and the second loading period will load up five. And sometimes, when I highlight mail to delete them, they disappear before I even click delete...
    TextFree With Voice:
    I am getting told by a few people that I'm not answering their calls, but it's not my fault being that it's not notifying me that someone is calling nor does it show up in my recent calls (missed calls) until maybe 30 minutes AFTER they call... In fact, it's STILL not showing me a certain recent call and I know for a fact that this person called me because it's the only number I gave them...
    Oh and in addition to these problems (would have went to a different forum for this but it took me 5 minutes to even get this far)... Does anyone else have a problem with their iPod Touch 4G home button? Ever since I've gotten it, it seems like I have to press and hold or just press harder than any recent iPod Touch generation would require...

    Well it could be a firmware issue with the router.. Try updating the router with a latest firmware from the cisco website.
    And also try using the iPhone 4 with any other network like (Hotspot or Cafe) and see if the voice does work over there or not.
    Also regarding the E1000 router , Try to change the wireless channel on the router you can try with channel 6 , 9 or 11 and then observe the iPhone connection. It could be an interference issue.

  • Alarm clock problem after Sync with N73

    I have a problem with the alarm clock in my N73 (RM-133). From the moment on I had my phone synchronized with Outlook via Nokia PC Suite, the alarm clock fails to start the phone from power-off state - it switches on, and then the software crashes. A working alarm clock can only be restored by formatting the phone with *#7370# and therefore losing all settings and data.
    Another thing that can be seen is that, after a Sync, if I set the alarm clock, turn off the phone, immediately turn it on again, the alarm clock is still set to its time, but the alarm symbol (the little bell) is no longer displayed.
    I have absolutely no idea what the reason may be. It can not be incompatible installed apps, as the problem also occurs after a total reset without changing any setting in the phone. I have already once changed my hardware on warranty. I am always using the latest (unbranded original Nokia) FW available, same goes for PC Suite. Any ideas?

    Oj, just relax and buy another phone, that's exactly what Nokia wants! I did so after 3 times sending back my N73 for various defects (keys, display, camera), then took a E65 for 2 years (which is far better, but not perfect, worked after 1 time exchange with a faulty SIM card reader), now I have a N82 which I had to exchange 6 (six) times for not having several stuck keys, scratches on the display, dust inside the display. This N82 now "only" makes strange noises when pressing keys like double-sided adhesive tape not properly fixed. Nokia knows about that problem (asked today in a shop). They fix it, but can't guarantee it getting better.
    So... just sit back, relax, and throw all your expectations about quality from Nokia over board, learn how to be happy for getting some (mostly useless) answer from the support at all, and never think you could get a masterpiece of a working phone from Nokia if you pay them 'only' 400 bucks.

  • Can you make a custom alarm clock tones

    is it possible to make a custom alarm tone such as a voice recording?

    You would need to do so on a computer and then import the ring tone to the device via iTunes.
    alternately, you can purchase tones from the iTunes store directly from the app, or set it to use any song you have in the Music app..

  • HT4623 I have recently updated my software to iOS 7.1 and I have found that my alarm clock still works but with no sound! All other sounds working, txts, ringtone, music etc.. Have tried turning it on and off, volume, and the do not disturb is off, help..

  • My music stopped playing with iOS 5

    I downloaded the iSO 5 on my iPod, but my music stopped playing.
    I tried to sync again, but still don't playing the music.
    What will I do? I need my music!

    That is not really a error. What that is saying is that itunes cant find the file to sync over to your iPhone.
    Yes you see it in your libary but the song is gone. As in if the song was located in C://Computer/Music. Then it was moved to a different location iTunes cant find it. Find the song and put it back. That is all you have to do or redownload it.

  • Hotspot stop working with IOS 7

    Hi,
    I used to have access to internet with my iPhone 4 hotspot, but since upgraded to IOS 7 it won't work anymore. I can not have access to iPhone either Bluetooth and Wi-Fi.
    I will need to do somthing to configure iPhone 4?
    Thank you in advance for your support.

    I was having this problem (iphone 5 wouldn't work as hotspot for my PC laptop) and had tried everything suggested on these message boards, so I finally went to the Apple Genius Bar and they fixed it for me.  Here's what they did:
    1) Turned the Hotspot off on my iphone
    2) Went to the Control Panel on my laptop to "Network and Internet" > "Network and Sharing Center" > "Manage Wireless Networks" (on the left navigation panel) and deleted my iphone from the list of WiFi connections I've attempted.
    3) Flipped the manual WiFi switch on my laptop to Off and then back On again (to reset it)
    4) Turned the Hotspot on my iphone back on
    After that, when I tried to connect, it worked.  Hope this works for someone else.

  • Why are the ringtones constantly defaulting to something other than the tone I select with iOS 7

    So it would appear that iOS 7 likes one particular ringtone after the update.  Can we fix this!

    What is it you are trying to change. For the mail app and a couple of others that show up in Notification Center, the settings in Notification center override those in Settings>Sounds.

  • IPhone 5 crashes repeatedly with iOS 7.1

    Hi there,
    I have an iPhone 5 (16GB) and it worked fine up till recently. About 10 days ago I updated the system to iOS 7.1. It went well for a few days, but some days ago the phone crashed and restarted when I was typing text in Facebook Messenger.
    Since then the phone crashed multiple times (almost daily) and usually when using the built-in apps.
    It crashed when I used:
    - text messaging,
    - the built-in camera app,
    - the built-in weather app (multiple times).
    It seems that this is OS related.
    Does anyone experienced the same issue?
    And do you have any solutions or suggestions?
    Restore?
    Thanks in advance...

    I have an iPhone 5 on iOS 7.1 and have had none of those problems.
    Something may have gone amiss in the upgrade to iOS 7.1 on your iPhone.
    To correct this follow these steps:
    1. Backup your iPhone using iTunes or iCloud.
    2. Use iTunes to completely restore your iPhone as Factory new.
    3. Monitor behavior to see if the iPhone is stable. If not, you may have a hardware problem - if so, contact Apple support.
    4. Restore your iPhone from your backup above.
    5. Check stability to confirm that it remains normal.

  • Alarm clock draining battery

    It appears that after I use the alarm clock (as countdown timer), the alarm clock continues to run even after the alarm is finished. I can see it on the usage timer: even when I know I only used the phone for a few minutes, it may give me 4-5 hours usage, and the battery suddenly drains quickly; it appears the alarm clock prevents the phone from going to sleep. It happens when I stop the alarm using the off-button on the top of the phone. If I go in and exit alarm clock, it stops correctly.
    Anybody else experienced this? If you have a quick battery drain, it *could be* alarm clock, weird as it may sound. I was very puzzled with why my battery suddenly drained quickly, until I narrowed it down to alarm clock.

    Yeah, it's pretty annoying.

  • 7260 users.... alarm clock

    I was just wondering if anyone would know if there is a way to change the alarm clock tone... i can't seem to find where to change it. Another issue is if anyone know how to delete the entire contents of inbox or sent items folders... it's really a pain once they are full to have to delete them one at a time. Any help with these matters will be greatly appreciated.
    thank you

    No, the newer clock is a feature of OS 4.6, your 8330 is running OS 4.5
