Can't personalis​e home screen on 9900

I was trying to shift round/hide some icons on my home screen (like I could do yesterday) but for some reason I don't get the option to move/hide icons any more.
As it is a new phone obviously I've been experimenting - is there any settings or something I could have changed by accident that stops me personalising the home screen?
Thanks

  • Help w/ fixing my broken ipod touch. I have to double click on an app in order to open it, can't leave the home screen, apps don't work!

    I'm not sure what happened, but I can't leave my home screen unless I press n hold an app and move it to another page, then when i press the home button so the apps stop shaking I can stay on another page. Other than doing it that way I can't scroll from one page to another. When I click on an app a thin box appears around it, not only with apps but when I click on the time or battery or ANYTHING! In order for me to open any of the apps I have to double click on it and then when it opens I can't do anything in the app. Even when I went to settings to see if there was something in there to fix this problem I can't go anywhere or do anything. Someone please help!!!

    Im having this same problem an my phone is about 3 weeks old. I am not sure about the voice over part though...I have not yet figured out how to work the voice recognition part of the phone...I am such a newbie with this phone. I did the power off/on suggestion, several times. I tried leaving it off for 10 minutes. Tried to reset with the power on/off and home button pressed at the same time. Charged battery. Still makes no difference. You cannot scroll any direction. Have to double click to open apps. Have to double click letters when texting or emailing in order to get the letter in the text box. Can scroll through app choices, have to click on the line with the dots in it and move from page to page. Can't access the settings - > general - > accessibility - because it won't allow me to scroll down to "general".
    Anyone help you with your fix yet?

  • Can we change the Home screen Background for iPhone 5C

    Can we change the Home screen Background for iPhone 5C

    I would assume that the home screen image and the lock screen image would be changed 100% the same way all other iphones change them in the settings

  • Can we change the home screen.

    Can we change the home screen and view it like a PDA screen, where we can view appointments,reminders and it should stay on the home screen.

    If app Calendar is running when you click the lock button on the top of the iPhone, then app Calendar will be again open the next time you "Slide to Unlock".
    But of course you won't see your private appointments unless you unlock!

  • How can I get to home screen from car dock menu when an app is running?

    Just upgraded to the RAZR MAXX from a Droid 2 Global.
    When the phone is mounted in the car dock and an app is running (Navi, Music, etc.), how can you get to the main home screen of the phone rather than the car dock menu?
    Follow me......
    * Phone is mounted in Car Dock.
    * If there are NO apps running, pressing the BACK key from within the Car Dock Menu takes you directly to the Home screen.
    However.....
    * Phone is mounted in Car Dock.
    * Navigation(or any app, for that matter) is running.
    * Pressing MENU key takes me to Car Dock Menu.
    * There's no exit option available to exit from car dock menu.
    * Pressing BACK key takes you back to the app that's running, not the home screen.
    * Long press of HOME key only takes you to an app list screen, not home screen.
    * Only way to get to home screen is to repeatedly press the BACK button exiting out of the Car Dock Menu and cancelling all apps that are currently running.
    On my Droid 2, I was able to quickly exit the Car Dock Menu simply by pressing the BACK or exit button, regardless of which or how many apps were running. They would still run in the background, showing on the status bar.
    Anyone know of a work around? I couldn't find any settings to change within the Car Dock menu to change this. Stopped by three Verizon stores and they all say we have to be missing something, as they couldn't figure it out either. One rep told me it was a new "nanny" feature so that you couldn't access your apps while driving, however when I pointed out that you could access the home screen if no apps were running, he wasn't sure what to say.
    Any help?

    I solved my problem eventually by getting all the devices - 2 iphones, the newish pc and the older Mac on icloud.
    All media, calenders and messages were lost from the iphones, except for purchased itunes that I paid another $30 to Apple to save for me and also paid Appple some more to use icloud but the good news is I did save my contacts
    I opened all of my contacts and pretty much had to edit and drag them over almost individually as they weren't all in some sort of configuration that Apple liked - i.e. if an email address ended in ch or es or de it might not be accepted as a properly configured vcard.
    It would be nice if Apple made it a litle easier when you have older devices and need to get them in sync with newer ones.

  • Can't set a home screen background

    i have just updated my ipod touch, i bought it last week as far as i know it's the newest one available (8GB). the Utilities folder is working & i have noticed a few other differences but when i go to apply a wallpaper it doesn't ask me to move or scale or set as a back ground for the lock screen or the home screen it just sets the picture. i did not have any of the other problems some people are experiencing but i don't use my ipod for much besides listening to music. anyone know what to do?

    This might clear things up for you.
    http://www.apple.com/ipodtouch/ios4-software-update.html
    Near the bottom of the page it says:
    "Not all features are compatible with all devices. For example, multitasking, custom wallpaper, and Bluetooth keyboard support are available only with iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, and the third-generation iPod touch (32GB and 64GB models from late 2009)."
    So I guess that excludes the 8GB version as you have.

  • Can't delete iPhone home screen bookmarks

    Hello,
    For some reason, every time I delete a bookmark icon from the home screen (made from mobile safari) it keeps coming back. Is there any way to make this stop happening? It will stay gone for a while, and then come back. Even synching after deleting it doesn't work. Suggestions??

    It sounds like a little glitch in the OS.
    I would try resetting the phone (hold the Home and Sleep keys until the Apple logo appears) and see if that clears up the issue.

  • Can't login to home screen. Get redirected to login over again.

    When I start my MacBook it brings me the first login screen with my account and then asks me for my password. When I type It in it looks as if it is logging me in but then doesn't. It redirects me to the exact same login screen again and then continues to do this when I type in my password. Essentially I cannot get to my home screen with my dock. This has happened to me once before and I had to reinstall the OSX operating system again. I was wondering what steps I could try before having to do this? Thanks for any help.

    try doing SMC reset, the following article tells how to do this:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964
    also after entering your password hit the enter key on the keyboard and make sure that you aren't clicking on the restart icon that's in the login window
    hope this helps

    Did you install the printer through a wireless or USB connection ? Did you use the CD that came with it or did you download it from the hp website ? You may try to do a hard reset and power the printer off and then back on and see if that helps. Let us know where you are on this if you still need help.
    If I helped you at all it would be great if you clicked the blue kudos star!
    If I solved your post please mark it as solved to help others.

  • Iphone 3G Screen just went all white- can not restore to home screen

    Has anyone had this issue? If so can someone give advice on what to do?
    The phone still works(I answered a call by luck) but the screen is all white and I can't get it to restore...I can't see anything on the screen so not sure what to do??
    Help!

    This just happened to a person in a chat room that I was in last night. Apparently, he read somewhere that if you slide your finger across where the "slide to unlock" slider should be (on the white screen), it can fix it. He did that, and it worked. Basically, you need to unlock it without being able to see the slider.
    My iPhone is the original model, but I imagine that the slider is in the same position on screen, about a half inch up from the bottom of the display.
