My ipad froze while updating cant turn off, any suggestions

my ipad froze during update. cant turn off. any suggestions?

If you're sure that the update isn't still happening then have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds, after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

Turning off data services

Hi, I was just wondering why you can't use wi-fi when you select to turn data services off. The problem is, is that for this 1 month I don't have unlimited data so need to make sure I don't spend much. Also will any services try to use the data service without user interaction? Thanks for your help

Whenever i turn data services off though it seems to also turn wi-fi off somehow.
It connects to a network however whenever i try to use anything it comes up with 'Unable to connect to the internet, please try again later.' The wi-fi diagnostics menu also says that the 'IP address no longer valid'
Whenever i turn data services back on wi-fi goes back to normal. Weird.
I have a feeling that you don't have the browser set as a Hotspot browser, then.
Even if you turn off Data Services, your Wifi Hotspot browser should work fine. I have one Bold device with no SIM even it, in which I can access and browse the internet on it via only WiFi using the Hotspot browser.

My sister wants to turn off data roaming

My sister has an iPhone 5, and has just updated to iOS 7.
She wants to turn off Data roaming.
How does she do this, pl;ease?

Settings > Cellular > Data Roaming > OFF

Inability to turn off data -- big problem

Well...it was great to be one of the first in Australia with an iPhone as I bought mine a week ago and then immediately left on a business trip. Roaming works fine, etc.
But...and it's a big but....not being able to turn off data is problematic. I have not used safari or mail once since landing -- yet I've still chalked up data use. The fact that the phone is doing something in the background...sending out data over Telstra...is a pain. Its not a lot of money...but global data roaming rates are expensive. I should be able to turn it off...
...or give me unlimited worldwide data....
Big shortcoming....

I have never tried this, but I question whether or not it will work. I read in an early review of the iPhone that one of the idiosyncrasies was that wifi would not work until the phone was activitated. Without the SIM card installed, the phone won't know that it is activitated -- so your plan to use wifi without the SIM card may not work.
Has anybody done this already with success?

Cant turn off shuffle?

mac os x 10.5.5
itunes 8
mac book pro
cant turn off shuffle.

Hi, I have the same problem which, strangely, only started today.
I’m running OS X 10.5.5 with iTunes 8.0.2 on a late 2006, 20-inch, 2.33ghz iMac.
If I go to the Controls menu I can select “Turn Shuffle Off” from the “Shuffle” menu but it when I go back in it has reverted to whatever shuffle option had been previously selected.
As I haven’t updated, or installed any software in a few days I thought it was probably a corrupted preference file but deleting the iTunes plist file and rebooting my mac made no difference.
I’m wondering if there a preference file I’ve missed.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

When turning off data services, does 26 and 3g matter? (battery-wise)

Im using a bold 9900 and i always turn off data services to save battery. i also switch to 2g even when data services is off. But does it matter? if i turn off data services and ALSO switch to 2g? or i dont need to switch to 2g when data services is off already?

2g (lower case) or 2G (upper case)?

Adobe Standard 9.5.2 after update I get "Insufficient data for an image" error

After updating to Acrobat Standard and Readre 9.5.2, some (but not all) of my pdf files are now opening with the error "Insufficient data for an image." The files open, but they are fuzzy, pixelated and are missing the bates stamp I applied earlier (using a utility from LexisNexis Casemap). I can open the files fine on another computer with Acrobat Standard 9.5.1.
How can I uninstall the 9.5.2, or get it to work again?

Windows 7 64-bit with Samsung SSD on an i5 Lenovo laptop. Yes, I have both Acrobat Standard and Reader 9.5.2 on the machine. Both give the same error when opening the attached file.

Hi osieko,Can you share across any such sample pdf file? Also, what OS are you working upon?You have both Acrobat Standard 9.5.2 and Reader 9.5.2 installed on your machine. Right? One option that you can try is to repair your Acrobat/Reader from Programs in Control Panel and see if that resolves the issue.Otherwise kindly attach a screenshot of the error you are receiving along with any sample pdf file.

HT1807 I have an iPhone 3s. How do I turn OFF data roaming?

I am traveling in Mexico. I have an iPhone 3s. How do I turn OFF data roaming? Under SETTINGS I don't see Network. I don'r see it under SETTINGS/General either.

What you should do, if you don't want any nasty surprises, is put your phone in Airplane mode. That turns off all iPhone radios, but you can go back into settings & turn WiFi back on.
Do not rely on the data roaming setting to protect you.

Turn off Data

I have an iPhone 5c. I've never had a problem with this before, but now when I manually turn off data for my apps, for some reason Facebook, Shazaam, and Youtube turn right back on. How do I fix that?

Why is Firefox intruding and sending updates when auto updates are turned off? This constant update wreaks havoc with add-ons

Why is Firefox intruding and sending updates when auto updates are turned off? This constant updating wreaks havoc with add-ons
Why is Firefox violating my computer?

I left "automatic updates" for Firefox UNCHECKED and left download when updates are found UNCHECKED. " Ask me wha I want to do" is CHECKED.
In English, that means don't automatically update and if updates are found ASK.
It does NOT mean ignore all the instructions and download!

Iphone wont leave the settings app. cant turn off or return to home. tried connecting to itunes and no change

tried upgrading to ios7 then said i didnt have enough storage so attempted to delete apps in usage and turned my icloud on, now iphone wont leave the settings app. cant turn off or return to home. tried connecting to itunes and no change. help!

You need to reset the phone, but that requires a functioning on/off (lock) button. Time to visit Apple.

Completely Turn off Data

Is there anyway to completely turn off the Data portion and still have the phone features to use? I noticed that on the Droid 2 there is an option for this, but could not find it on the Fascinate. This would probably help on the battery side of things if we could turn the Data off

I have used the app "APNDROID 2.5 beta" found at:
http://code.google.com/p/apndroid/downloads/detail?name=apndroid-2.5beta.apk
This changes the APN names and thus stops data usage (WIFI still works).
Only the 2.5 or 3.0 versions work on CDMA phones such as the Fascinate.
This also works with the app "3G Watchdog" to turn off data usage when it reaches a certain level.

Is there any way to turn off data and use only wi fi

is there any way to turn off data and use only wi fi, going to a foreign country and do not want to use data but wi fi will be available. I want to be sure to use only wi fi

Yes there is!
Simply go into Settings, General, Mobile Data, Turn this off and make sure Data Roaming is also switched off! You can have wifi on and this will no charge your account for the data you use via Wi-Fi!

Turning off Data Saver.

My Droid Razr Maxx has a notice up in the drop down notification screen and it says.. "82 items waiting to upload, turn off data saver to upload" what the heck is this? I have tried all sorts of things and cannot find "Data Saver" anywhere.. HELP....
Melissa

ok under system settings I have airplane mode, wi-fi, blue tooth, tethering & mobile hotspot, data usage( under that there is Mobile data usage), VPN and Mobile networks.
then under Device there is sound, display, storage, battery, apps.
then under Personal there is accounts & sync, Backup assistant plus, device setup, location services, security, language & input, Privacy.
then under system there is date & time, ptinter settings, accessibility, developer options and about phone.
Im not finding anything that says data manager, I went into the battery section, nothing there. ugh this is so frustratiing, every time I take a picture the number there increases but nothing happens.
