Why do my Twitter alerts come through twice?

Why do all of my Twitter alerts come through to my iPhone 5 (ioS8.1.3) twice?  Once as an SMS Text & once as a notification.
I want to see these notifications, but not hear them.
I think the best way to acheive that would be to stop the SMS Texts but still allow silent notifications under Notifications in Settings.
How would I disable JUST the SMS Tweets but not notification Tweets?  Is that possible?
I've been all over Twitter help pages but the only terminology I see for notification setting options see is 'SMS Text' notification settings..... ?
Help.

Do you have Exchange set up to sync your contacts? If, so, they will be backed up and will synce right back to your phone when you add the account right back.
Aldo, before you delete the account, you can go in and turn off the items that you have synced with Exchange such as contacts. It will give you the choice to delete them from the phone or keep them. Choose keep them, then delete the account.
Since mail is store on the server, you can get it back as long as you have not deleted what you want to keep.

  • HT1430 why wont my emails come through and the message i get is  cannot get mail user name or passord is incorrect when it isn't

    Why won't my emails come through the message I get is cannot get mail username or password incorrect yet they are right

    Hi, 1crispycracker. 
    Thank you for the question.  The easiest way to troubleshoot this issue would be to delete the account and add it back to the iOS device.  Below, I have included two e-mail troubleshooting articles.  The first article covers basic email troubleshooting.  The second article will assist you if the email account you are experiencing issues with is a Gmail account.

  • Must check mail manually on 3G phone - doesn't come through automatically

    I only receive e-mails if I touch the mail icon and the iPhone checks for mail. No alerts come through on its own, as it did on my original iPhone.
    Any suggestions?

    Again, thanks for the replies.
    What's strange is that I 'handed down' my original iPhone to my son, and I had installed 2.0 on that phone - which obviously has the same settings options (his is set on manual) - and he still gets e-mails immediately. I think I'm missing something.
    Also - is MobileMe the only solution? In order to have near immediate e-mails you must pay for that service?
    Thanks for the help. I guess I knew less about the upgrade than I thought.

  • HT2693 The sound will no longer come through my headphones on my iPad I've tried several different headsets.  The sound works as normal without the headphones but will still not come through the headphones even thoug I have tried to reset it twice. Please

    The sound will no longer come through my headphones on my iPad I've tried several different headsets.  The sound works as normal without the headphones but will still not come through the headphones even thoug I have tried to reset it twice. This is the new ipad with retina display and is only 2 months old and otherwise works fine. Please help!

    - Try cleaning out/blowing out the headphone jack. Try inserting/removing the plug a dozen times or so.
    Try the following to rule out a software problem
    - Reset the iPad. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPad: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store. Seems you have a bad headphone jack.
    Apple Retail Store - Genius Bar
    Apple will exchange your iPad for a refurbished one for this price. They do not fix yours.

  • Twitter Alerts Not Updating in Notification Centre On My iPhone

    Hi, I am hoping someone will be able to help me.
    I have an iPad 2 and an iPhone 4. Both devices are running on the most recent iOS software and both have the notification centres and apps within the notification centre set up the same way. But all of a sudden I have stopped receiving twitter notifications on my iPhone. My account is fine and I can send tweets from the phone (tweeting from the gallery and tweeting from safari etc).
    The notifications come through on my iPad as normal but the iPhone is displaying twitter notifications from 5 days ago but nothing recent despite having been sent many today alone. When I get a tweet sent to me, it alerts me on the iPad but not on the phone at all. Last week, it was notifying me on my iPhone the same way as my iPad. I get all other notifications on my iPhone and iPad as normal, Facebook, eBay, iMessage and email. All of those are set up in the same way on both devices and notifications come in at pretty much the exact same time, as usual. 
    Twitter has just stopped on one device.
    Going in to the Notification settings on the phone you can see it set up the same way as my iPad. I have deleted my account from my phone numerous times, hoping that when I re-enter my account details it will right itself but to no avail. 
    I haven't done anything, it just stopped. The only way of knowing I have even have twitter messages or notifications when I am away from my iPad is because I get an email alert. 
    Is anyone having the same issue? Has anyone heard of this problem? Has something turned off on my phone that I am overlooking? Can anyone offer any advice on how to correct this problem?
    Many thanks!

    I am bumping this because now they have completely stopped now on both devices.
    I've have had multiple people tweet me today and yesterday and not a single notification is appearing on either device.
    Again both devices are iOS5.0.1 both devices are logged in correctly to twitter. I can send tweets from iOS5's interface (gallery, safari etc) with no issues on both devices. But I am yet to receive a tweet notification on my iPhone (last notification is well over 10 days old) and now my iPad 2 (last notification is over 2 days old).
    Neither device has had the twitter app in the notification centre messed with or turned off. Both are on signed in and sound is on, banners are on, "show in notification centre" is on as is "show in lock screen".
    Please help!

  • Popping when new sound comes through, with Bose companion speakers.

    I've used the Bose companion speakers for years with my 17" PowerBook and they were fine. Now, connected to my new 24" iMac they "pop" just before a new sound comes through, i.e. mail message coming in etc. I've connected them to my husband's 24" iMac and same deal. Apple has no idea why, and it's driving me nuts.

    Just came from the Apple store, told the same story to one of the guys there who use to work in a recording studio. He knew what I was talking about. Now I've talked to Apple Care twice, Bose once, no answers. But this guy suggested a USB device, like an iMic which I happened to have so I gave it a try and so far, NO POPPING. I have my fingers crossed, but it seems to be working. I have the speakers plugged into the iMic, the iMic plugged into a USB port.
    Bottom line, this is screwed up, I shouldn't have to do this work around. Apple has to know about the problem. But until they own up to it at least now I'm not going nuts with this noise. At least I hope not. I'll post again if I'm wrong.

  • Samsung Brightside - Texting comes through as garbage

    Have a Samsung Brightside and the texting doesn't seem to be consistent.   Often the text will come through as garbage characters.   Typically this happens if I am getting a text from an iPhone, or if they have put in any "special" characters.   Group messages are also a mess - I get one message that comes through as a media message for everyone that is on the group message.
    My phone is up to date with software.
    Has anyone seen the same thing and have an answer?
    Thanks.

        Hey there scottyergin! Sorry to hear about the messaging issue you've been having. I know from experience what that can be like when I had a Basic function device getting messages from smartphones. The reason why some messages contain unreadble/nonsense characters is because your device may not be able to translate certain font types or special features that are included with some messaging clients (even with your device's operating system being up-to-date).
    The iPhone uses an application called iMessage that provides its owners with many such options. It works best when communicating with other iMessage users, but can also be used to send/receive regular SMS/Text Messages. I recommend reaching out to one of your contacts if you should get a message like this again to ask that they disable special features (if possible) before sending another message so that you can read it. You may also considering joining the fun and getting an iPhone for yourself some day! If you're interested, have a look at all our latest devices at this link: http://bit.ly/nD0WuY

  • I just bought my first Iphone the 5S and when I turn on my bluetooth the ringtone for my text, calendar, etc. comes through my Bluetooth instead of the phone. Is there a way to have the tones use the phone while bluetooth is on?

    I just bought my first Iphone the 5S and when I turn on my bluetooth the ringtone for my text, calendar, etc. comes through my Bluetooth instead of the phone. Is there a way to have the tones use the phone while bluetooth is on?

    I would also like this issue addressed.
    I am using a Plantronics Voyager Pro+ and when it is connected to my iPhone 4, email and text sounds are not audible through the phone. The phone just vibrates when a new text or email is received.
    I don't really care if it plays through the headset, but it should at least play through the phone. I tested the headset from a BlackBerry and the alerts play fine.

    why are my audiobooks not going through for home sharing.

    According to this thread (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3525692), it looks like you are not able to share audiobooks through Home Sharing:
    You can share MP3, AIFF, WAV, AAC, and radio station links, but you cannot share iTunes Store Audio Books, Audible spoken word content, or QuickTime sound files.

        Motherto2, I'm sorry to hear that you weren't able to turn your phone on! I know how important it is to rely on a phone, especially when traveling. I'm hoping this issue has been resolved, but if you still need assistance I can provide a few steps. First try clearing your system cache.
    1. Boot into recovery
       o Press and hold Power, Choose "Restart" option
       o When screen turns off, press and hold Volume Down and Power
    2. When the white HBOOT screen appears, use the volume button to move down to “RECOVERY.”
    3. Press the Power button to select “RECOVERY.”
    4. When the triangle and exclamation appears, hold the Volume Up and Power button at the same time.
    5. Using the volume button, scroll down to “Wipe cache partition” and select it.
    6. Select "Reboot system now"
    If this is still not going thru, attempt an alternate master reset. http://goo.gl/MSrgE
    If your phone is still not booting up after these steps, the device may need to be replaced thru warranty. Let me know if you still need assistance.

  • Color correction doesnt come through well on DVD project on TV

    I burned my short film onto a DVD and played it back on a SD television. The film has many color grading tweaks and I noticed that they barely come through on the TV. Definitely not representative of what i have ont he timeline. Any clue as to why this is?

    Does your monitor show you the Rec.709 colorspace? And is it fully calibrated?
    If not, you're not getting WYSIWYG, so there's no way you can know what the output is going to look like without burning a DVD and playing it. Then you can iterate, making changes in PPro and burning more DVDs, until you get what you want.
    Very few computer monitors can show you Rec.709. To get that, you need either a production monitor, or a fully calibrated HDTV (look for one that's easy to calibrate (supports ISFccc Calibration Mode). If you use a TV, you need to make sure you're getting the proper signal to it also, but PPro using the NVIDIA graphics boards can do this without extra hardware (driving the HDMI port). If you set the driver up correctly.
    But if you don't have a production monitor, or a calibrated HDTV, you're really just shooting in the dark when it comes to color correction and especially color grading. Not what you want to hear I know. But that's the current state of the art.
    I'm pretty certain it doesnt show the rec.709 colorspace. My monitor isnt even widescreen. I actually had no idea about the rec.709 space until just now when you mentioned it. I am a vidnoob hence the screen name
    I have a geforce 560TI card. Do you know if I can buy a cable that goes from the card to maybe an S video adapter I can plug into the TV to then color correct my project on the TV when doing things intended for TV playback? There's a DVI port on the back of my graphics card and my TV has an S video female port.
