BB10 / Z10 Swiping back from System Settings, Menu / App sort order, BB10 UI recognizing email / phoneno / addresses

There some inconsistencies within the BB10 UI which I finally figured is derived by the ability to swipe back from the stock UI except from within the system settings where we have to use the back button to go back between screens. 
Can we have option to sort System Menus or Application Drawer and the ability to hide applications like previous BBOS?
BB10 UI is not intuitive in regards to recognizing email / phone nos / addresses compared to prior BBOS. A lot of trial and error copy and pasting to do what you want to do with said contact info until figuring out what works.  Unfortunately besides not being able to call a phoneno directly from anywhere, a user does not have the ability to copy and paste number on a dialer or search item to call like previous BBOS. User will have to either try to go back and for the between screens to dial and call the number or use the trust pen and paper method.

Okay, yes, I'm suffering from new phone syndrome but ill ask these final things for today. Home / Lock screen customization would be nice. Between the phone / search / camera icons on the bottom bar theres empty space which can fit two other icons like maybe one for brower and text. May we get the option to change these shortcuts? I for one do not use the camera often so it's useless to me on the Home / Lock screens. May we also get an option to pin active frames so we do not have to keep opening the same ones, in my case battery and weather apps. I know it would drain the battery faster but hey its my choice and that's why I'm getting the BlackBerry battery bundle for ADD people like myself.
Finally, may we get more password options like swipe pattern found on Android phones to unlock the phone. During my cup of tea with the enemy, that was one of my favorite features as it was a lot faster to do one handed than text based passwords. Again, the camera is useless to me so having other than that on the lock screen would be great. Please let me have the choice to see a brief description of my notifications on the lockscreen like the descriptions found on the drop down drawer from previous BBOS. It has notification counters and agenda info but I want more like the ability for these icons to quick launch to their respective apps like email to email or text to text app. Even power button screen can have more quick toggle options like quickly going to vibrate or airplane mode.
If all these things are not something BlackBerry wants to do themselves, especially since most are old BlackBerry features, please bring back BlackBerry Themes. There are many talented BBOS UI designers who are being left behind in the old world who could greatly help fine tune the UI to specific needs and interests. I believe these themes would definitely be a hit in BlackBerry world and I would purchase them if I found one that suits how I want to use the phone quickly and efficiently.
All in all it is great phone which unfortunately a BlackBerry power users have to dumb down for any expected BlackBerry features that are not there yet or may never be possible for a full touch phone. Due to my line of work, the quest to owning just one phone will continue to elude me because I need / require the ability to filter and set level one notifications. Current enterprise users know what I'm talking about. Hopefully they will come.

    Many users have lost photos while preforming a restore from backup or upgrading the iOS.   Recall, only photos in the camera roll are backed up to iCloud.  There is a way to turn backups for camera roll on/off, perhaps these users had camera roll turned off.
    Although the current devices don't have the photos, the following is advice for the future:
    Settings>icloud>Storage & Backups>Manage Storage,  tap the device's name and on the next screen, be sure Camera Roll is turned on.
    IMPORTANT...
    Photos should be regularly synced to a computer (like you store photos from a digital camera) using either USB via iTunes (on a mac use iPhoto or Aperture to move them to an album) or using photo stream.  If you have been doing that, then you can sync those photos back to your device.
    If you haven't been saving photos except relying on iCloud to store them in a backup, then that is risky, as many users have discovered.  I'm afraid I have no advice in this case - there is no "cure".

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Put in a request for another verification e-mail to be sent to you.
    Start here, change your country if necessary and go to manage your account.
    Also check your Mail rules and filtering, the verification mail may be going to a junk folder or even being deleted altogether. You may also wish to contact your mail provider to see if their spam filters are removing the email before it gets to you.

  • My iphone 3gs won't allow me to enter my email password.  The acct is all greyed out in the settings menu and now I can't get email.  I restored the phone through iTunes and did a hard reboot but nothing helped!!

    I changed the password on my Yahoo mail account and now the phone will not let me enter the new password.  The mail account is greyed out in the settings menu.

    Try deleting the account and set up a new one. Also make sure to not sync the phone with old email settings.

  • Exporting from Lightroom 1.3: Different sort order than defined in Grid view

    Just did an export from Lightroom 1.3 and ended up with a the wrong export order.
    Here is what I did.
    1. Create a collection
    2. Drag the pictures I want to export into that collection
    3. Select: Sort: Import order (In lightroom grid view - the sort order was correct)
    4. Export from Lightroom with "Userdefined name - sequence"
    The result is a total different sort order than I can see in the Lightroom Grid view.
    Very annoying.
    Any ideas?
    Also - in the new export dialog there seems to be no option anymore to CHANGE a user-defined export like in the previous version. What do you do if you want to change something?
    Overwrite with the same name?
    Remove old export and add the new one changed?
    greetings

    Are you seeing this only in Lightroom? They are not 'still in the parent, Germany folder.' only visible their if you have 'Include Photos from Subitems' checked in the Menu/Library of Library.
    Uncheck that you you will only see them in their correct folders.

  • Faces from my Mac's random sort order

    So since updating to iOS 8 (and up to iOS 8.0.2, iPhone 5) and syncing my photos from aperture, the stock photo's app now seems intent on listing all the people tagged in my photos in a random order. Previously, on iOS 7, these were listed alphabetically with no issues (the fact that the phone wants to change the sort order of albums from what they're set to to date is another gripe altogether, but at least one that has a workaround).
    Does anyone else have this issue of Faces from my Mac being in a completely random order? And if so does anyone know of a workaround? I've tried deleting the iPod photo cache from my Aperture library but this hasn't had any effect...

    I have the same issue too. My 'Faces' are all mixed up and depending on where I look i.e. if I go to send a photo through iMessage, they are in order. But, if I look in the Photo App on my iPhone, they are all mixed up.
    On a slightly different note, if i'm in the Facebook App and I go to upload a photo, the 'Camera Roll' contains ALL my photos on my phone and only the 3 albums that I made on the phone. It doesn't view my albums imported from iPhoto. Clearly an FB issue and not Apple though.

  • Why can't I login into my Apple ID from the settings menu on iPhone 4s?

    So I was texting my friend as I was plugging in my phone to charge. When I plugged it in, a sign showed up telling me to enter my Apple ID. I ignored it and pressed cancel. That is when my problem started. Now when I try to turn on iMessage it doesn't work. I press settings >messages>iMessage. I turn it on but it keeps saying waiting for activation. I select "use your Apple ID for iMessage. It takes me to the screen to login in. I. Put in my information but then it keeps saying error. Something with my connection and then it says to try again. I turn off my wifi and turn it back on. I go back and repeat the steps but it still says that error. Please help!

  • Does anyone know how to remove Twitter from the Settings menu?

    I was hoping somebody found a way to get rid of it. If not, I assume that it is built into the OS. Thanks for any help.

    It is built-in to the OS.
    See: http://www.apple.com/ios/features.html#twitter
    You can't remove it. You're under no obligation to use it if you don't want to - just ignore it.

    I'm not entirely sure what you are referring to, there isn't a user manual section in the iPad's Settings app. If you want an iPad then you can either download it from here : http://support.apple.com/manuals/ipad/
    Or if you download the iBooks app then there should be a copy in the ibookstore in it

  • With latest update, personal hotspot disappeared from Settings menu

    How do I get the Personal Hotspot back on the Settings menu?

    So this is what I did to rectify the problem. First, do a Network Reset, this resets all network settings to factory, wait for the iPhone to reboot. Then, do a Reset All Settings, you won't lose data or media, but if you have a passcode on, it will be erased, but is easily fixed when it reboots, also note your iPhone's background will be reset to the "Water on Window" background, so you will need to change that as well, but that's about it. Wait for the iPhone to reboot, then go to Settings>General>Network>Personal Hotspot, and turn it on, then immediately connect a computer to it, then afterward disconnect, and it should still show up in the settings on the iPhone, and visible to any computer with WiFi capabilities. I just had this happen to me a few minutes ago, and this fixed it. Try it.

  • I can not pass the language settings menu

    Hello,
    Since I have tried to get the latest build of Apple TV, my apple TV can not pass the language settings menu. I choose my language and then it loops back to language settings menu.
    I have restored twice from iTunes, plug and unplug from the tv, the electric network, and so on, but it does the same loop.
    Anybody has solved this problem ?
    Regards,
    F

    If you can't get past the lock screen when you slide to unlock, try rebooting your iPad and then try again.
    Reboot 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 if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
