Backlight Turns On Every Time I Touch the Wheel....

I recently had to restore my 2 year-old Mini due to issues with skipping songs.
Now that it's restored, the backlight comes on every time I touch the wheel. The backlight is set for 20 seconds, so that setting is taken care of.
Is there another setting that says "Always use the backlight", or something like that? I trolled the menus and found nothing.
Thanks in advance for your help!

Well, I do not exactly understand what you want the backlight to do, but here ya go:
Go to Settings>Backlight>check out the options. The timers show how long the backlight will stay on when the click wheel is touched. After that time, it goes off, and the next time you touch it, the backlight comes back on. I believe at the bottom of that list is a Backlight Always on choice. Select that if you want the backlight to always be on (except when the iPod is turned off, of course). At the top of the list is a Backlight Off button. Select that if you want the backlight to remain off, unless you turn it on (Hold the Menu button, or you can select this from the Settings menu).
I hope this helps!

  • Why does my IOS8 iPad buzz every time I touch the screen?

    OK, I've had my iPad4 for about 9 months.  Now, since downloading IOS8, every time I touch the screen or the home button, it buzzes, irritatingly. Maybe it's nothing to do with IOS8, but I've been into settings/sounds and settings/notifications, but nothing I alter gets rid of this bug.  Any help will be most appreciated.

    Sorry folks!  I just performed the simple switch off/on and all seems to be fine now.
    Sorry to waste your time, if I have.

  • Slow Mail app Wheel keeps turning every time I touch the program

    My mail app has recently become cumbersome. Every time I write a few lines the little wheel turns until it seems it has saved to disc or to the iDisk. It is becoming a real pain in the neck. I noticed that it is also happening with Pages app too. I have archived 95% of all the old emails.
    The genius in the local Mac Store said it is because it is syncing with MobileMe all the time. So I switched the syncing to Manual. but this has not solved the problem. Does anyone else have the same problem or have any ideas how to cure it. I have tried al the normal things like repair permissions, rebuild mailboxes etc.

    I have just tried to change the new settings in Mail preferences.
    The IMAP account setting have a tick box for IDLE (it is at the bottom of the "advanced" panel on the recent upgraded Mail 3). This is a setting which makes the IMAP accounts look up all the time to get the "push" email. I have set them to "off" and it seems to make a difference, but I am not sure that this is the cause.
    However, It would seem realistic that if you have slow broadband speeds it will have a bigger effect than if you have fast broadband speeds. Here we have about 2 MBpS download and 0.3MBpS uploading.

    Press any key on the wireless keyboard after you close the MBP and it goes to sleep. The computer will wake up with the external monitor as its display. This is called Clamshell mode.

  • 1. What's the difference between private mode in Safari which i have to turn on every time again when opening safari. It's a two click activity which i would love to be able to set in the preference as default.

    1. What's the difference between private mode in Safari which i have to turn on every time again when opening safari.
    It's a two click activity which i would love to be able to set in the preference as default. It's tyering when have to do it everyday a few times. (Yes, i'm one of many who have the "i like safari but since the update crash everyday a few times" syndrome...

    Am open for any other help in both cases. Thank you upfront
    2. and the "tell websites not to track me" under Safari - Preference - Privacy.

    That box should prevent websites using trackers to log your movements on the Web to benefit advertisers. I have no idea if it does.
    Safari can keep your browsing history private. When you turn on private browsing, Safari doesn’t remember the pages you visit, your search history, or your AutoFill information, so your partner cannot see where you have been, but you must also remember to also turn off acceptance of cookies.
    In all other respects Private Browsing is not as private as you might think:
    http://www.switchingtomac.com/tutorials/how-to-make-safaris-private-browsing-fea ture-actually-private/
    http://www.insanely-great.com/news.php?id=9054
    and then Apple's own advice from here: http://www.apple.com/pro/tips/privacy_safari.html
    "Note that the Private Browsing option does not prevent Safari from collecting cookies (the preference files automatically generated by many websites). The Reset Safari option clears all cookies. If you want to delete only certain ones, choose Preferences from the Safari menu, click the Security tab, and then click Show Cookies. You can select and delete individual cookies from the list that appears. Careful, though — if you’re a frequent web user, this list can be very, very long."
    which is itself incomplete, the relevant part being 'If you want to delete only certain ones.
    To that end it is useful to have Safari Cookies installed, which is the only cookie manager available for Safari:
    http://sweetpproductions.com/safaricookies/
    which automatically deletes all cookies not marked as 'favourites' when closing Safari. It does the same for Flash Cookies, but they are subject for themselves:
    From this website:
    http://machacks.tv/2009/01/27/flushapp-flash-cookie-removal-tool-for-os-x/
    For those who do not know about Flash cookies, more properly referred to as Local Shared Objects (LSO), they operate in a similar way to regular browser cookies but are stored outside the purview of your browser, meaning you cannot delete them from within your browser, whether Safari, Firefox, Opera or any other. Typically they are issued from sites or 3rd party sites that contain Adobe Flash content. Since virtually all internet advertising is  delivered in Flash, Google/Doudleclick and all other internet advertising companies are sure to be tracking your browsing behavior with Flash cookies. These companies can see you traverse the Internet as you come upon the plethora of sites that contain their embedded advertising. Check out the Wikipedia entry here.
    In Mac OS X they are stored in the following location:
    /User’s Home Folder/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/#SharedObjects
    The settings for the Flash cookies are stored in:
    /User’s Home Folder/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player/macromedia.com/support/flashplayer/sys
    In OS X Local Shared Objects, or Flash Cookies, are appended with a .sol suffix. Flush deletes all the Flash cookies (.sol) and their settings.
    Flush can be downloaded from that page.
    If you want to retain certain Flash cookies but not others, the excellent add-on for Safari called SafariCookies now includes a setting for automatically deleting flash cookies you don't want to retain, when Safari is shut down, in the same as it deals with ordinary cookies:
    http://www.sweetpproductions.com/safaricookies/index.htm
    which not only does that but much more equally useful stuff!
    This article covers the issue in more depth:
    http://www.wired.com/epicenter/2009/08/you-deleted-your-cookies-think-again/
    Flash cookies are also known as 'Zombie Cookies' and are used by a number of firms, including Hulu, MTV, and Myspace. Graham Cluley, senior technology consultant at the internet security firm Sophos, told BBC News that the source of the trouble was Adobe Flash itself, which he called "one of the weirdest programs on the planet".
    "I think it's highly unlikely that these large companies have abused Flash cookies - which are different from browser cookies - with malicious intent," he said.
    "I think it's much more likely that the vast majority of users are simply oblivious to the bizarre way in which Adobe allows them to configure the software."

    Ghostery tracks the trackers and gives you a roll-call of the ad networks, behavioral data providers, web publishers, and other companies interested in your activity.
