Yosemite battery notification sound?

I've been trying to search online for an answer but still haven't come across one. Ever since I updated to Yosemite (from Mountain Lion), the low battery warning doesn't pop up nor make a noise. The only notification is the tiny low battery icon and the notification panel in the top right corner, but I'm usually busy with stuff going on in the center and bottom right, so I miss the "notification" until my battery runs out. I was looking through System Preferences, but there isn't an option for battery sound, so is there a way to have the battery notification to be more noticeable? Thanks!

It's been a while, but I was wondering if there has been any information regarding this released? My Yosemite was just updated, but I'm still having the same inconspicuous low battery warning issue.

Low Battery Notification sound

I discover that when batter level drop to either 20% or 10%, there would be a notification shown in the IPhone but there is no alert sound. This mean that if I dont check my phone I would not be able to know that my phone is in low battery.
Is ther any way to create the alert sound for low battery notification?

Noted. But in the event, if I dont check my phone due to I am very busy, the battery may be fully used up without I knowing it. Is my understanding correct?

Satellite P300-19P - Low battery notification sound

Does anyone know if there is a way of creating/turning on an audiable low battery notification? I can't find one.

Hello
You can set a notification sound in the control panel => sounds and audio devices => Windows sounds.
There you can set a sound for low battery.

Enabling low battery notification

I've got a droid razr m using android 4.4.2 (kitkat). I want to install an audible low battery alert. I selected a sound from windows ( a .wav file) and converted it to .ogg and uploaded it to the phone's notifications directory. Would this be enough, or would I need an app for it?
I saw, in other threads, that lowbattery.ogg is located in \system\media\audio\ui. I don't see that directory listed (using usb from computer to phone). I also saw mention of using "root explorer", which I am not familiar with -- I'm using "windows explorer" in windows vista.
Help appreciated.
Thanks.

If you are allowed to change the low battery notification sound then you should be able to place the file in the user accessible notifications tones folder (/sdcard/notifications) and you can select the file from the available tones. The folder path you listed /system/media/audio/ui is not in the user accessible area of the phone. To make changes to that folder you have to void your phone warranty and discussing the steps to do so aren't allowed on this community forum because of the Terms of Service here.

Hi Joseph. Try opening systems preferences on the Mac and go to mobileme. Just make sure under sync, that contacts are selected. Hope this helps.

Weird: getting iphone notification sound when I receive a new Gmail email even though account is deleted on phone?

I've been trying to debug an issue with receiving notification sounds
that I don't want to receive, and I don't know where to go from here -
I am totally confused.
A couple of days ago I started having a problem where anytime I
received an email I would get a notification sound. I didn't want
that, so I tried turning off all notifications on mail. This didn't
fix the problem, I would still get a sound when receiving a new email.
Next I tried removing my gmail account from the Mail app.
Surprisingly, I still am having the problem with getting a new
notification sound when a new email is received. (I tested by sending
emails to myself).
Next I tried turning off cell data on the phone, and also removed the
phone's sim card so that I would be sure it was only communicating
over my wifi network that it was connected to. Bluetooth is also
turned off. I downloaded the Mac OS X Program Eavesdrop[1] and
started watching the network traffic, sent an email, received the
notification sound on my phone, and checked the network wifi traffic.
Surprisingly, there was no connections listed. So how does the iPhone
know a new message was received? This is repeatable.
I had the Gmail app running but not logged in, so I tried quitting
that app and it had no effect: I still received the notification
sound.
I tried changing the password on my Gmail account and then
tried sending another email, and it still makes the notification sound
after the email is received!
I have a list of open applications if you're interested in that. I did try turning my iphone on and back off but it still happens. I realize I could probably fix by re-installing the OS but I'm interested to know what's going on and why.
I have my iPhone connected to my iMac and running Xcode, when the
weird email notification comes in there's this line in the console:
Nov 23 14:43:16 unknown SpringBoard[15] <Warning>: No alert sound
found at path 'UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName'.
AudioServicesCreateSystemSoundIDWithPath() returned: -1500

Hi,
I had the same issue for somtimes now and eventually removed the GMail app because the sound notifications I had happened everytime I received an e-mail in my GMail account (including spam).
Since I removed it, no more problem and my battery life is way better !

Mail notification sound not working on iphone

My email notification sound doesn't work until I open the mail app. THEN I get the sound. Using iPhone 5s - iOS7, of course. Any ideas?

Settings>Mail>Fetch New Data>Select mail account you would like>Select Fetch
View Fetch schedule at the bottom of the previous page, select time (longer time preserve battery and use less data).

"Low Battery" notification app

Can anyone point me to a simple app for low battery warning that will sound an alert every few minutes? There are a couple, but one has a very quiet alert that can't be changed and the other one doesn't get good reviews.
There are such features in the various battery managers, but I don't need that elaborate of an app.
Thanx, Geri O

I use Battery Status Pro (It is free). There is a very audible notification sound, along with a video notification. In addition, you can set at what percentage of battery life the notification occurs. There is a constant visual in the notification bar, and the app also measures battery temp.

Mac OS X Mail Notification Sound

In Mac OS X Yosemite, when the Mail app receives an email, the notification comes first and after 10-20sec later the notification sound comes. This has happened for some time now, thinking after few updates that Yosemite had would fix this issue.
Is this happening to anyone else? And if so, is there a solution to this fix.

In Snow Leopard (haven't back to check Leopard again) you have two places to check what has been selected. First, in Mail Preferences/General what is selected regarding the New Message Sound? Secondly, in System Preferences/Sound/Sound Effects you also need to make the desired selection, and confirm the Alert Volume setting. It is the settings in System Preferences that I cannot remember whether they were the same in Leopard.

Email notification sound despite sound is on mute

Why does my Retina iPad give email notification sound despite sound is on mute? My 1st generation iPad does not produce any sound if it's on mute.

Are you sure that you have system sounds muted? Either the side switch or the task bar (double tap the home button and swipe to the right in the task bar to get to whatever icon is all the way to the left - sound or rotation lock) is how you mute system sounds.
You could try Settings>General>Sounds>New Mail>None as well and that should turn off the sound. Just make sure that you do have system sounds muted first.
This is my standard and somewhat long winded explanation regarding system sounds and the screen rotation lock.
If you lose sounds for keyboard clicks, games or other apps, email notifications and other notifications, system sounds may have been muted.
System sounds can be muted and controlled two different ways. The screen lock rotation can be controlled in the same manner as well.
Settings>General>Use Side Switch to: Mute System sounds. If this option is selected, the switch on the side of the iPad above the volume rocker will mute system sounds.
If you choose Lock Screen Rotation, then the switch locks the screen. If the screen is locked, you will see a lock icon in the upper right corner next to the battery indicator gauge.
If you have the side switch set to lock screen rotation then the system sound control is in the task bar. Double tap the home button and in the task bar at the bottom, swipe all the way to the right. The speaker icon is all the way to the left. Tap on it and system sounds will return.
If you have the side switch set to mute system sounds, then the screen lock rotation can be accessed via the task bar in the same manner as described above.
This support article from Apple explains how the side switch works.

HT4623 I have just finished the upgradation to an iOS 6.1.3 and have lost sound in Music and Videos. I am using an iPhone 4S. My iPhone doesn't produce sound when playing Youtube or local camera videos. However ringtones and notifications sound works fine

I have just finished the upgradation to an iOS 6.1.3 and have lost sound in Music and Videos. I am using an iPhone 4S. My iPhone doesn't produce sound when playing Youtube or local camera videos. However ringtones and notifications sound works fine.It is quite strange as well. Have you encountered this issue before?If yes then what's the solution?

I had major issues with the iPhone 4s battery, however it’s resolved.
The tech who set the phone up at the Apple store did so with little training.
if you have a mobile me account. First go and move all your data to the cloud by going on your computer and logging in at me.com/move. The cloud has replaced mobile me, so there is no need for those two accounts
Also make sure that for any of your email accounts you set them up to fetch, not push. My tech person set them all to have the email servers push data to the phone. The new iphone4s antenna is extremely strong so it will continually try to access stuff that is pushed–***** a lot of battery life doing this. It makes it worse if you have exchange 2010 accounts. Something about changes made to exchange really suck battery life from devices that access such accounts.
turning of locator and the push notifications from facebook--they have a lot!

Continuous notification sound

Over the past few weeks, I have had the completely annoying issue of my phone keeps notifying me of... something. While plugged in (and only at this time) it will either give the fully charged notification sound every 10 seconds to 3 minutes (the time varies) or vibrate. I keep my phone plugged in overnight to charge, and use it as an alarm in the morning. As you can imagine... having this sound go off so frequently throughout the night is EXTREMELY annoying. My husband and I have found it difficult to sleep for more than a little bit at a time.
I called Verizon today to find out how to fix this (amongst a few other problems I'm having, but I'll save that for later). The rep did some searching and recommended that I download AutomateIT. I have the app installed and tried a few different "rules" in it, but the notifications keep coming. It's not even a notification, really... it's just the sound of a notification. Nothing else happens. I tried looking for an option within the phone to turn off battery notifications, but can't find anything. Maybe I'm not looking hard enough?
I have had the Charge since June of 2011. Right now, I'm on my 2nd charge. Full stock, everything is up to date. I have done a hard reset to this specific phone twice. The only apps running are Facebook and Google Voice.
Has anyone else experienced this problem?? Is there a solution? I appreciate ANY suggestions, as this phone is driving me craaaaaazy!

I think I might have the solution. if your phone is stock (not-rooted), you can access the clockwork recovery section by pressing volume up+home+power button (once the device is already off). once you see the samsung logo, release the power button only. there should be a section to navigate to (via the volume rocker, and enter is the home button) to refresh the battery stats. but do this with the phone unplugged and battery power at nearly 0% (or you could let it shut off automatically and then boot into the CWR).
hope this helps.
if your phone is rooted, then there is a battery calibration app.
but do some searching on "battery calibration" for your phone.

Kiosk Mode no low battery notification?

I was in Kiosk Mode and got no low battery notification. Just spent 20 min wondering why the hell my computer turned off on me, since I thought I had enough juice.
Am I alone? If not, wth?

The warning is supposed to appear when the battery is down to about 5%.
You could try resetting the NVRAM. But there is no way to test if that solves the problem unless you are willing to run the battery down again.
Shut down your Mac.
Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command (⌘), Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
Turn on the computer.
Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys before the gray screen appears.
Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the third time.
Release the keys.

Put low battery notification in notification area?

Is it possible to make the low battery notification appear in the notification area like the other notifications so it doesn't interrupt me while using my iPod Touch?

No, sounds like when you dropped it an cracked the screen it may have also damaged the logic board or the repair person damaged a cable.
