TS2755 How can I lock my screen when I'm on the phone? My cheek keeps hitting the mute button.

How do I lock my screen when I'm on the phone so my cheek dosen't hit the mute button accedently?

The screen should be automatically locked by the proximity sensor when you put the phone in speaking position. Make sure that there is nothing blocking this sensor (like a case for example).

    A. Only if the device is online.
    B. Only if you set up Find My Phone before the theft.
    What To Do If Your iDevice Is Lost Or Stolen
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:
    This link, Re: Help! I misplaced / lost my iPhone 5 today morning in delta Chelsea hotel downtown an I am not able to track it. Please help!, has some good advice regarding your options when your iDevice is lost or stolen.

    i cannot access my itunes account when i try to sign into itunes. it keeps saying the itunes store is temporarily unavailable, but i can sign into the apple website.

    That means you have to sign into/view your account and review you account and make sure you have a valid payment method specified in your account.

  • Can you lock touch screen when watching videos!??

    Can you lock the screen so it doesn't become a touch screen when watching videos!??
    Just got new ipod (7th gen) and this driving me crazy that I think I'm going to continue to use my older one unless there is a solution out there. I watch tv shows while commuting and while walking here or there I have to 'palm' the ipod or walk with it at my side, and the problem is that since the touch screen is sooooo sensitive I keep fwding/rewinding/swiping the screen to something else, and then to get back to that part in the video is a pain because unlike the older ipod you can just fwd a few secs, this one jumps minutes because it's so sensitive. PLEASE tell me there's a way to lock it from accidently touching it!

    No - there is no such switch on the iPad - the switches control volume, muting, screen rotation, and the home button itself.
    You could place it behind a screen of some sort so touching the outer screen won't affect the iPad screen - I've seen ads for 'presentation kiosk' type devices for the iPad that allow this, although I'm not sure how practical they would be in the backseat of a car.

  • How can I brighten my screen when on the internet?

    Under most usage, the screen on my S III is quite bright.  However, when I go to the internet, the screen brightness dims dramatically and I can barely see the images or text.  I have turned off the auto-brightness, but it doesn't do a thing for my internet screen.  Does everybody else have this problem, or is it just me?  Any ideas how to fix my problem?

    First, make sure you have any available updates by going to Settings->About Phone->Software Updates.  Then, while in the Internet browser (the default one on the Galaxy SIII), hit the Menu button and then click Brightness & Colors.  Uncheck Automatic Brightness, and then you can control the brightness with the slider underneath that.  Also make sure the radio button for "Default" is checked below that.

  • When im on the phone my ear keeps pressing the apps how do i stop it

    when im on my phone my ear only has to touch an app and it keeps beeping how do i stop it from happening

    If you have a screen protector on the phone, remove that. If that still doesn't work, there is something wrong with your proximity sensor. Make an appointment at your local Apple Store for servicing.

  • How can I let my mac read an application as a known creator to keep on the security while using it?

    Hey , whats up?
    I bought my mac mini, I want to keep it safe from unknown creators and more and there is a great app that I'm using and the creator is not marked as a known one or downloaded from the app-store so how can I let my mac open this app while the blocking will be on the option "Allow apps only by known creators & App-Store apps" ?
    Thank you very much, Nadav.

    This is called the "Gatekeeper" function, more info here:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5290
    Basically the developer can fix this by digitally signing their apps.  However you can exempt an app, in the article linked above look for the section titled "How to open an app from a unidentified developer and exempt it from Gatekeeper"

  • How can I stop flashing screen when trying to open Google calendar?

    This is just a recent problem that has come up and I have run all kinds of diagnostics, changed from IE 9 to IE 8, but I still get a fast flashing IE screen and at the top, it's like Google and IE are battling it out over which one owns the page, even though I only have IE 8 downloaded, not Chrome.
    I also can't save Events on my calendar (when I could get into it) and have disabled the scripts, etc. in IE Tools. What can I do about these problems and what do they mean?

  • How can I prevent my screen getting covered with black and white lines while working on the internet which only happens with firefox and only go when I 'go back' or go down a page?

    It happens as I surf - horizontal black and white lines particularly when I scroll down and only goes if I can go to a new page or go back a page. It is driving me crazy and only happens with firefox. I have disabled all plug ins but it still happens.

    Try to disable hardware acceleration.
    *Tools > Options > Advanced > General > Browsing: "Use hardware acceleration when available"
    If disabling hardware acceleration works then check if there is an update available for your graphics display driver.

  • How can I remove unread messages when I know I don't have any?

    How can I remove "unread messages" when I know I do not have any?

    Hit the num lock button again. Num lock forces only the numeric keypad underlying keys to work as a  numeric keypad, and the rest of the keyboard won't work.  Unfortunately Apple stopped including the numeric keypad hidden keyboard key labels on its keyboards.  They used to include them.  They are known as mouse keys: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?path=Mac/10.5/en/cdb_moskys.html

  • HT5465 how can i delete a contact ( or all contacts ) from i phone ios7 ?

    how can i delete a contact ( or all contacts ) from i phone - ios7.0.2  ?

    The fact that those internal contacts lists aren't editable is an irritation to many. I've submitted feedback to Apple several times on this, asking that in a future OS release they should either
    Provide a way to directly access that list of 'Recent Addressees' and Delete unwanted ones, or
    If not that, then at least mode it so that addressses selected from that list bubble up to the top, therefore over time moving the unused ones down out of sight.
    Other have added their own ideas, and the more they hear on this topic the more likely a future fix will become. If you feel that you would like the change, then put together your best case for it and make your wishes known directly to apple via their established Feedback links:

  • How do I lock my mail when i have finished viewing so others can't access my mail

    How do I lock my mail  when I have finished viewing it so others using my ipad2 cant access it

    The iPad is designed to be a single user device and there isno direct way of locking/hiding the Mail app, though there is this work-around https://discussions.apple.com/message/13127632#13127632
    I don't know whether any of the third-party email apps have password protection within them, and you could also just use a browser (you can create homescreen shortcuts in Safari, so you could have a shortcut to your email account log-in screen).

  • How can I lock out my iCloud? Because of forget my old password and I have do a new Apple ID but when wan to log out my iCloud it call me to logout find my iphone but already forget the password . Have any solution ?

    How can I lock out my iCloud?
    Because of forget my old password I have create a new Apple ID
    But when I wan to log out my iCloud,it call me to logout Find My iPhone.
    I had already forget the password that why I create a new Apple ID.
    Have any solution for problem like this ?

    Apps and Music are not from iCloud. Are from iTunes and App Store.
    You can change this from: Settings>iTunes and App Stores>Sign out and sign in with new ID, but you will have to pay again to download apps that you already have in your old account. Or leave it as it is to share purchases with your son.
