Is there a way to keep the screen from lighting up every time an email comes in, but still be able to see the email on the lock screen when you press the home button?

Is there a way to keep the screen from lighting up everytime an email comes in, but still be able to see the email on the lock screen when you press the home button?  This is killing my battery, but also is kinda the whole point of the notification center in my mind.

This is something I've been wondering. I am a bit like you, I like being able to have a glance at emails or Facebook updates without having to log in, and I think it would be great to be able to turn off the notification switching the screen on, especially for emails as I do get a lot, and Facebook, but I somehow doubt it is possible.
I am currently monitoring how much this eats up my battery charge. On a normal day, after an overnight charge, I would probably still have 30%-40% left when I leave work in the evening. Today, I was down to 48% by lunchtime, where I've usually got a good 60-70% left... Might have to turn email notifications off on lock screen until it's possible to have them appearing in the list without flashing me...

  • Is there a way to tell Firefox to reload a page every time? I'm a web designer and need to see what it looks like every time I open pages that I'm doing.

    In IE, you can set the program to reload a page from the web each time you visit a page. I can't find a way to do that in FF. I'd prefer to only reload the websites that I work on rather than everything on the web, but that's likely not possible with any browser.

    Thanks for any help one can offer!

    Thank you! The "Tab Auto Reload" seems to be what I needed!

    This is often due to faulty battery. Make Genius reservation and take iPhone to Apple Store for free quick battery diagnostic testing.

  • After a few minutes, the page down won't work without clicking the mouse pointer on the page I am reading to activate page down again. Is there a way to go back to page down working every time without having to click the page first?

    Question
    After a few minutes, the page down won't work without clicking the mouse pointer on the page I am reading to activate page down again. Is there a way to go back to page down working every time without having to click the page first?

    Today, two other users reported issues with the back-forward history list dropping down if they hovered the mouse pointer over the back or forward button -- without clicking -- and then moved the pointer downwards. One user was on a touchpad, I don't know about the other user. Are you experiencing anything like that?

    Help, my iphone 5 is locked and will not function! I've turned it off and on and it has the same fault. What ever you press on the screen highlights with a box round it. When you press the round button with the square in the centre the voice on the phone tells you the time. Then the voice says screen lock. If I try and unlock the phone the voice says phone unlock but you can't put the code in. If you hight the box it will say the number but not put the code in?! What's the crack?

    Quickly Triple tap the home button to de-activate VoiceOver.

  • Is there a way to keep both menu bars opaque at all times?

    Mavericks shows the menu bar in both monitors when you have two. That's great, but the menu bar in the passive desktop turns translucent, which is a bit annoying. Is there a way to keep both menu bars opaque at all times? Setting the menu bar opaque in the desktop settings affects only the active monitor.

    Hey Everyone,
    DISCOVERED THE ANSWER!!!!!
    I recently got one of these fun little squares and I just figured out (what seems to be) a simple way to keep the clock face on. (Though, I certainly agree with the comments about the ultimate impracticality of doing so for a long time, as the the battery in this thing only has so much to give.)  I'm running the latest update on it.
    This seemed too easy to believe when I did it! No need to keep it empty of music! No need to keep it in Fitness running! I think this works because the clock face, stop watch, and timer are all in the same segment of it's little nano operating system.
    If you turn on the stopwatch then switch back to the clock face, it will stay fully illuminated as long as the stopwatch is running. I think the limit on the stopwatch is 24 hours, but my guess is your battery is going to be dead long before that. I'd recommend setting the brightness super low if you're going to do this.
    Anyway, problem solved if you want to keep it lit for however long you like. (of course you have to sacrifice the stopwatch)
    Enjoy!!

    Hey shahbazfromgbr,
    Thanks for the question, and welcome to Apple Support Communities.
    I understand you are having issues with sound output on your iPhone 4S. For troubleshooting steps, the following article provides the best information:
    iPhone: Can't hear through the receiver or speakers
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1630
    1. Verify that there is nothing plugged in to the headset jack, including headsets, headphones, or adapters.
    2. Make sure the Ring/Silent switch is not switched to silent.
    3. While on the Home screen, adjust the volume buttons. If you see the icon below, indicating that headphones are attached, there may be debris or an object lodged in the headset jack:
    4. Check the headset jack. If there is an object lodged in the headset jack that is not easily removed, have the iPhone serviced to remove object.
    5. For Original iPhone: If there is light debris, such as lint, in the headset jack, try connecting a pair of headphones to the headset jack and then remove the headphones. Repeat this several times to remove the debris.
    6. If you have installed a protective film on the display, either ensure that the receiver is not covered or remove the film completely.
    7. Check the receiver mesh (which is on the top front of the device, above the display). If it appears blocked, use a clean, small, dry, soft-bristled brush to carefully and gently brush away any debris.
    8. If you have paired with a Bluetooth headset that is nearby, either use the headset or turn Bluetooth off (choose Settings > General > Bluetooth).
    9. Restart the iPhone.
    10. If restarting the iPhone doesn't resolve the issue, try restoring the device.
    11. If the issue persists, go to the Service Answer Center - iPhone for information on service.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • How to view .shtml files locally? I have added "Open in Browser" but still not able to see the local .shtml file.

    I have added Open in browser add ons in Firefox browser, but still not able to see the .shtml files on local machine.
    Can any one please tell me how to view .shtml files in Firefox?

    SHTML files are regular HTML files that make use of Server-Side Includes. In some server configurations, the special file extension is required to instruct the server to parse the file for SSI code.
    If Firefox doesn't recognize the file type, it is likely the MIME type is incorrect.

  • I keep getting "Unknown error has occurred" every time I try to login, but Itunes is working fine.

    I keep getting "Unknown error has occurred" every time I try to login, but Itunes is working fine.  I have now called support twice with no help.

    Ok..  try restarting your Mac.
    If that doesn't help, temporarily disable anti virus software.
    Apps such as Little Snitch, Net Nanny, and Hands Off can prevent access to the App Store as well as third party download managers.
    Try installing the Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo
    That will reinstall the App Store for you which may help. It's ok to do this even though you already have v10.6.8 installled.

  • Is there any way to prevent my Calendar from displaying in GMT time?

    I just update my iOS to 8.1.2 on my iPhone 6. It appears in my calendar in GMT time despite the fact that I set my time zone to +7
    Why Apple support team never solve this problem. So confusing.

    Hi chalit2000,
    If you are seeing Calendar events listed in a time zone other than the one the iPhone is currently set for, you may want to check to see if Time Zone Support is enabled. You may find the following article helpful:
