Can I stop SMS notification when the iPhone is being used as a phone?

I love my iPhone, but the one thing that is driving me mad is SMS notifications coming through when I'm talking on the phone - a startling loud alert when the phone is pressed hard against my ear makes me jump every time, and actually hurts a bit too! I don't want to have my SMS alerts as silent, I'd just like the phone to realise that shouting 'PING!' in my ear when I'm on the phone is not good for my hearing or nerves!

What happens when the Powerbook is being used as a laptop?

Sorry if you read this twice - I mistakenly posted it as a reply rather than a question. I am waiting for my new Powerbook along with an Airport Extreme Base Station. I plan to network the Powerbook with 2 PC desktops and a PC laptop.I know I will have to use the Powerbook to configure the network, but I want to know whether it will have to be present and connected whenever the network is in use - it is, after all, a laptop and therefore sometimes not in the house. There are only two of us living here, each of whom will own a desktop and laptop when the Powerbook gets here. Would it make a difference to accessibility when the Powerbook is travelling if we connect one of the desktops to the lan port on the Base Station instead of running everything wirelessly?

How do I stop Messages notifications when the app is closed?

Messages have an annoying tendancy to still "come through" even after I've quit the program, popping up in the right hand corner of my screen until I attend to them. How do I stop this from happening? There are many times in the day when I'd like to not receive messages from contacts/friends/families and just concentrate on work. I can turn my phone off, silence it, etc. to stop messages from coming through there, but on my computer, where I am working, turning off the device in question is not an option. With Messages on Mavericks, quitting the program doesn't seem to do the trick.

Alternative.
In Messages > Preferences > General Section.
Untick the "When I Quit, Set the Status to Off Line"
This will stop the IMAgent Support app "listening" to the servers for new messages.
It works best if there is a Buddy list account as well as iMessages (such AIM or Jabber).

HT1476 my iphone will not charge the usb that comes with the iphone is being used and it recognizes it but it wont charge

my iphone is not charging i have restored it twice now and it still wont charge on the charger that i got with the phone. it sees that the phone is there and i can do stuff in itunes but it wont charge PLEASE HELP

If your iPhone won't charge with the power adaptor or when connected to your computer, do you have access to another USB dock connector cable to rule out a problem with the existing cable you are using?

How do I connect my apple tv to my tv when the HDMI is being used for the freeview box?

I have an apple tv that I want to set up to my tv. Currently the HDMI on my tv is connected to the HDMI on the freeview box we have. How do I connect all three?

You can buy an HDMI splitter or switcher to take two (or more) inputs into one port. Just put a search into your search engine and they will come up or visit your local electronic shop.

I have itunee 11 and iphone 4 and i can't sync my apps to the iphone. it just stops on "determining apps to sync".please help

i have itunee 11 and iphone 4 and i can't sync my apps to the iphone. it just stops on "determining apps to sync".please help

it is an itouch, i buy apps from the app store, they are purchased, they show up in my app section but when i try to sync them to my itouch they do not show up in on the itouch. i have tried to atuthorize and deauthorize the computer also few times, rebooted computer and still nothing. when i restore the firmware and have everything reinstall all over again the apps music and such, all show up. however if i buy a new app and try to sync it with the itouch it does not show up despite the fact that the computer states 'installing "......" whatever app. it happens with numerous apps, there is no rhyme and reason to why certain apps just do not show up on the itouch. the authorize/deauthorize deal does nothing to rectify the situtaion. any other ideas ?

My wife and I both have the iphone and we use my macbook pro with iTunes to sync our ipods. When I do something on my iPhone it shows on hers. How do I set up her a seperate iTunes acct on my mac so she can operate independent of me?

There's info here on setting up separate libraries and user accounts. You won't have to reload (or re-import) all the music, just copy it.
The reason I suggest separate accounts on the Mac is because if you have the two libraries under the same user account, iTunes will also open the last library that was open in that account, and you'll always have to be mindful of which library that is. If you open iTunes and find it's not your library, you'll have quit, relaunch holding the option key and select the other library.
No, you won't have to log in and out of the Mac. (If I'm understanding your question here.) Multiple accounts can be logged in at the same time. And with fast user switching, you can toggle between user accounts.
I'll admit that maintaining the two libraries gets a little tricky, because if you share all the same music, you'll have to add it to one and update the other. (That won't happen automatically.) But I think Home Sharing makes this much easier to do.
Hope that helps!

Took my phone to the Apple store this week and they told me it was a hardware/screen malfunction. They replaced the screen for free since it was under warranty. Now it works fine again!

How to stop a2dp from taking playback priority when the IPhone is docked?

I have seen many people having this problem since mid 2009 and it still hasn't been addressed.
The problem is simple. When an IPhone is docked it shouldn't switch to a2dp for playback as soon as it is paired with something. In other words, playback priority should stay with the dock. Or at least there should be an option to disable a2dp playback when the IPhone is docked (or at the very least to disable it all together).
This issue becomes a big problem when you dock an IPhone in a car to playback music, but still need to be able to send and receive calls through bluetooth.
With the current firmware, priority is given to the which ever connection is made last. So when the car is turned on (and the bluetooth connection is made) a2dp takes over playback.
What is anoying is that apple can solve this problem with a simple if-then-else in the firmware code.

What happens when the iPhone needs an activation and it doesn't respond? Then it asks me to restore it but due to an unknown error (-1) the iPhone can't be restored.

Thank you for your response. However, I have done that plenty of times and each time I try to restore my phone, it extracts the software and then when it says restoring with the loading bar, an error message comes up saying an unknown error has occurred.

I accidentally hit the stop (x) button when the "empty secure trash" process was going on. Have I screwed up my computer? Can I continue the "Empty Secure Trash" later?

I was cleaning my caches which was taking forever to clean up. (more than 4 hours). I accidentally hit the stop (x) button when the "empty secure trash" process was going on. Have I screwed up my computer? Can I continue the "Empty Secure Trash" later?

Just restart your computer. Then go to Finder menu and change 'Secure empty trash' to Empty trash.
Unless you work with state secrets you really don't need secure empty trash which takes seven times longer to do its job. Empty trash is fine for all but the afore-mentioned secret files.
