No Notifications When You Receive New Messages
If you’re receiving new messages in your Inbox but you’re not being notified of them, then check your notification settings in PhonePad. 1. In PhonePad, select Preferences from the View menu. 2. Select Notifications. 3. Make sure you have one or more of the notification methods checked. For example, Display Popup Messages and Display Alert Window in System Tray. If you’re frequently away from your computer you may want to uncheck the Close After check box. The Test buttons allow you to preview some of the notifications.
Make Sure That the Old Server Notification Service is Not Still Running
Earlier versions of PhonePad 5 used a server-based notification service. If you updated PhonePad 5 from an earlier version, there is a possibility that this service is still installed and running. If it is, it will interfere with the operation of the Workstation Notification Service. The solution is to remove it. 1. Download this removal tool to your Server or Host PC: Server Notification Service Uninstall 2. Run the tool by right-clicking on it and selecting Run As Adminstrator from the popup menu.
3.
If the Remove button is enabled, then click it.
4.
The old service should be stopped and uninstalled by this program.
