Change Local Notification Sound

[RileyE]

Hi,

I'm currently trying to change the sound of my local notification, but its not working. I'm trying this:

localNote.soundName = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"itimer" ofType:@"caf"];

But its not changing the sound. I know that is the correct path, because I use it elsewhere in my code successfully. I don't have any errors in my code when I run it and the debugger never catches a problem when the sound is supposed to occur. It just plays the default sound, instead.

Pass it just the filename.

localNote.soundName = @"itimer.caf";

The sound still plays through with the original tritone sound, though.

EDIT: I'm not sure what the difference between:

localNote.soundName = @"itimer.caf";

and

localNote.soundName = @"itimer.caf";

is, but its working now. I seriously wrote exactly what I had already written (just commented out), but this time it worked. I don't know why it didn't work, but I won't question it, since its working.

Thank you!

EDIT #2:

This is exactly what I had, plus the new line:

    localNote.soundName = @"itimer.caf";
    /*localNote.soundName = @"itimer.caf";
    localNote.soundName = [[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"itimer" ofType:@"caf"];
    [localNote setSoundName:[[NSBundle mainBundle] pathForResource:@"itimer" ofType:@"caf"]];
    [localNote setSoundName:UILocalNotificationDefaultSoundName];*/

Only the last call will really matter so the local notification will play the default sound. That's why it wasn't working.

Oh. Those were just the previous call attempts that I had. I just slowly added them to a comment block of failures. Only one was uncommented at a time.
