Is there a way to lock the phone's touch screen during a phone call?

I just purhased my iPhone and I noticed that during a phone call I may accidentally tap Mute or Speakerphone with my cheak, depending on which hand I hold the phone in. Also when I hand the phone over to someone they may accidentally tap a button, and in the worst scenerios they will accidentally end the call.
Is there a way to lock the screen or something to prevent any of the above from occuring?

Their currently isent a way to disable the buttons but what you can do is click the home button during a call after pressing loud speaker and that will separate you from the call options and take you to the home screen and on the top it will have say call active and you can click that to renter the call note the call will still be active but when you hold it next to your face the screen should temporally go dark. Steve jobs was the one who came up with when the top sensor is active the screen will go dark and disable on screen button pressing when it is press against your face

  • Is there a way too lock the iphone history on safari

    my history keeps getting erased and i dont know whos doing it i wanna know if theres a way to lock the clear history button

    No.
    Unless you or someone else using the phone is clearing the history, resting data, or restoring the phone, the Safari history doesn't get deleted. If someone else may be doing this, you can enable a restriction on Safari:
    Settings > General > Restrictions > Enable Restrictions > Safari > On

  • Is there any way to lock the iMessage settings?

    Is there any way to lock the Imessage setting on an Iphone so my Childred dont have access to my texts on my their Iphone?

    This means you and your children are sharing the same Apple ID for iMessage.
    You need to get your own Apple ID to be used for iMessage on your iPhone. You can continue using your existing Apple ID for iTunes store purchases.

  • Is there a way to lock the folder arrangement in Apple Mail?

    My Mother-In-Law has Retinitis and is not able to see well. Every now and then she'll accidentally drag a folder into another in the Folder List.
    Is there any way to lock the arrangement of the folders so she can't drop a folder into another, or into the trash?
    I'm unable to find anything in the settings or menus.

    Selecting a different email will change what is displayed. Tapping the Home button will take you back to the Home screens. Tapping the power button on the top of the iPad will put it to sleep. Those are pretty much your options.

    is there any way to lock the history, my kids are deleting the history so i can't see where they've been

    I have 15,000 songs and I have relocated them many times.  You can right click/show in finder/explorer on a song in your itunes library to find out where they are (if you don't know).  Go to their source folder and move them to an external HD manually.  Then I suggest clearing all songs out of your itunes library (control - delete, or command - delete on a mac)(make sure you click "keep files" if it asks).   Then dragging everything back in from the new location on the external HD.  Just note you'll have to have that external hooked up any time you want to listen to your music.

  • I have a teenager that has learned how to delete his history, is there a way to lock the history to where I can monitor the sites he visits without setting up parental control program on the computer?

    I have a teenager that has learned how to delete his history, is there a way to lock the history to where I can monitor the sites he visits without setting up parental control program on the computer?

    Use security software or a router with a build-in password protected logging feature if you want to keep a record of visited websites.<br />
    You can't prevent people from deleting the history and other personal (private) data in Firefox and a log elsewhere will always work even if other browser would be used.

  • Is there a way to lock the location of where iTunes is looking for music regardless of the itl file.  I am loading a remote itl file by default ever time but then it's looking for the music on a local drive instead of a network drive.

    So I have a number of PC's in the house that are dumping music into a central PC with a network shared drive.
    The music is dumped into the "automatically added to library" folder on the remote PC.  Itunes is always running in the background.
    When I open iTunes on my local PC a script retrieves the newest ITL file from the remote PC, then the script opens iTunes using the updated ITL file.
    This way I have a fresh copy of the remote library music every time.  The problem is the music location under advanced settings.  I can change it every time but I would like to make this as automatic as possible.  The question I guess is if there is a way to lock the music location or have it change via a script every time iTunes opens.

    You can't change the location of the media folder from a script, neither can you change which library file is opened. I assume your script simply copies the current master library into the normal location for the file on each client machine. Do you not get a file locked error? What about the other library files and the Album Artwork cache?
    Your scheme may work best if you use a common drive letter for your media folder and have it so the media folder is not inside the master library folder. E.g.
    Master library folder at X:\iTunes
    Master media folder at X:\iTunes Media
    Where all the computers see drive X: as the same object, be it the whole of that drive or a shared folder on it.
    If you have the typical arrangement (iTunes Media inside iTunes) then when you copy the library from X:\iTunes into C:\....\iTunes and start iTunes it will attempt to "correct" for the fact that you've apparently moved the library and reset the library folder to C:\....\iTunes\iTunes Media. It should still be able to find the media at the correct location, but if you accidentally load anything up from a client machine it will end up in a local folder.
    If you are not already familiar with it iTunes Folder Watch will be a useful tool for catching up with any additions made on the client computers. You should probably also ensure that each of the clients has the "Keep iTunes Media folder organized" option disabled.

  • Is there a way to lock the lens-change-button on 5D Mark III ?

    Hey! I just got the 5D Mark III, and after that I got the 70-200 f2.8 IS II
    Lens is so good im thinking ill just stick that permanent on the 5D3. But I have a serious problem with the button that releases the lens, I keep hitting it without trying when I remove the camera from camerabag, etc. So the lens falls of. So every time I now have to check if the lens is on properly when I retrieve my camera. I dont know how this happens so easily, I never had that problems with my 350D, 40D or 5D mark II.
    Is there a way to lock this button, does anyone have a smart physical block idea to it. Must be something I later can unblock if I want to change lenses.
    Right Now its tempting to gaffa tape it somehow but recon I'd ask here first.

    Something is not right here. Accidentally depressing the lens release button does not cause the lens to 'fall off'. When de-mounting a lens, there's at least 50º of axial rotation after lock release, with the first 40º offering a degree of stiffness. Removing a lens does involve some degree of deliberate action.
    There was a debate about this across at POTN [url=http://photography-on-the.net/forum/showthread.php?t=961169]LINK[/url] some months ago; the consensus was that, for those who insist their lenses DO fall off, there must be a degree of user error. But you're here for advice - a one-second precautionary twist of the lens before use'll provide reassurance the lens is locked down properly. Or send both lens and body to Canon for a check-up.

  • Is there any way to lock the HDMI display on one desktop?

    Hello!
    My Macbook Pro HDMI-connection to my TV works great -- the only thing I wasn't able to figure out is if it was possible to lock the HDMI display on one desktop. I use five different desktops (spaces) and I'm using extended desktop(s) for my HDMI, but every time I switch to another desktop, whatever I'm watching on my TV switches to the extended desktop for whatever space I just switched to, meaning that my TV switches to blank screens. Is there any way that, even if I continue switching through desktops on my computer, I can keep my HDMI locked on the extended space for "Desktop 1," for example?
    Hope that makes sense. Thanks!
    -Ryan

    If you disable the "Change with buttons" setting, the buttons will still control the general volume (music, games, etc) but will NOT change the ringer or alarm sound settings (keyboard clicks also fall into this category but is not mentioned). This lets you use the volume up/down buttons to change the general volume level without changing the ringer and alarm volume levels...it keeps you from inadvertently turning down the ringer or alarm volume and missing calls and alarms.
    That being said, there's no way to totally disable the volume up/down buttons from doing something volume related.

  • Is there a way to lock the screen?  Why did it copy all my iphone apps?

    I really would like to lock the screen so it doesn't change position if I move it a little bit. Anybody know if this is possible?
    Why the heck did it copy all of my Iphone apps onto itself even though I told it not too? Not too happy about that...
    Otherwise I think it is absolutely amazing. The touch screen is very responsive. In fact, I think it is perfect.

    There's a little switch above the volume buttons on the right side. Flip it and try turning the screen.

    Not sure since we're not sure the processes you took to sync it. When its plugged into your computer and you are viewing it in iTunes you can go into the "Applications" tab and select which apps you want and don't want. On the main info page there is a checkbox that says sync apps automatically".

  • Is there a way to fix the white or black screen on Ipad 4th Gen?

    Ive tried to reset it and restore to factory settings but this does not work. The screen was white until I restored to factory settings and now it's black when it starts up. Ive also let it die and tried to charge and power it on again but no go. It's an Ipad Black 32GB 4th Gen. I will post a link to one of the pictures I had of it below. I am wondering if I have to pay how much it'll be to fix. It was working great until about a week ago when it randomly happened. It was purchased in February of 2013.

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Is there any way to lock the controls on the iPhone?

    I need to figure out a way to let my 2-year-old watch Blue's Clues on my phone without him being to interfere with the play back. If it can't be done with a setting on the phone, is there a particular case that would work?

    Sorry, not possible. Any case that would block the controls, would of course block the screen, since the screen is one big control.

  • Is there any way to lock the volume on my imac?

    My Daughter has autism and has found much joy in her i mac.  She likes to play music from i tunes at full blast, even at 4 am.  I don't want to take it away from her because it calms her but she is waking up her siblings.  I already took the icon off the top and altered the keyboard but she found the control under preferences

    Some bad news here. I just checked and there is no lock for the sound preference pane. You might want to file a request for this feature to Apple.  Explain your situation to them and suggest they add a lock for the volume. I am assuming that you have created a separate account for her that does not have administrator access.
    You might try plugging in a set of external speakers, preferrably something so small that the volume doesn't get very high, and/or with the volume button removed/disabled. As long as she doesn't figure out how to unplug them, it would solve your problem.
