OK - if you go to the settings for each app under notifications, there are different options for each application.


You might want to check those.

For example, on Mail you can set notification to be None, Banners or Alerts. I think the default is None.


Have you done that and are you sure you are getting events which are delivering notifications?

Got it!!!! A re-install is NOT the answer. You need to turn on individual notifications under Settings > Facebook > Push Notifications, BUT (and this is a big and confusing BUT) you also need to turn on global push settings under Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendards > Fetch New Data (and change the Push slider to 'on'). This doesn't sound like it makes sense, but I guess that the push slider under 'Mail, Contacts, Calendars' is actually for ALL push notifications on iPhone, and not just Mail, Contacts and Calendar apps!
