Can the iOS7 lock-screen timeout interval be changed?

I'm not talking about the Auto-lock setting; I mean the 5-second interval when my iPhone is locked and I press the wake button to view an incoming message or the clock. I would like to increase the time before the display shuts off again.

There isn't much of a choice there... 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 minutes or never. I'm really hoping that the next update changes that to something more reasonable, such as 1, 5, 10, 15, 30 minutes or never.

Ios7 lock screen emergency calls

Does the "Emergency" button on the ios7 lock screen/PIN entry screen (lower left of screen) bring up a keypad or dial 911 directly?

Depending on where you are located you, this "911" feature is to call for emergency help, even though the iPhone is locked. This feature will still work if the iPhone is in the United States even if it does not have an active service going to if from a cellular carrier.

Siri says she can't read my email from the iphone5s lock screen when I'm using the standard headphones, but I could do that on 4s. How can I get my 5s to do that?

Hi Liz,
Sorry to hear you are having a similar problem. Last night I went to the tool bar at the top of iphoto, clicked on "File", then clicked "Browse Backups" in the drop down menu.    I have an external hard drive that is set up to Time Machine.   The Browse Backups opened the iphoto pages in the Time Machine. I selected a date one day ahead of the day I performed the now infamous update, and it showed my iphoto library as it had existed that day.   I then clicked "Restore Library" at the bottom right corner of the Time Machine screen.   Roughly 2 hours later my iphoto was back to normal.   When I opened iphoto there was a message saying I need to upgrade my program to be compatible with the new version of iphoto(version 9.2.1). I clicked "Upgrade" and within seconds it had done whatever upgrading it needed to do.
The only glitch in the restoration was that it restored the library as it appeared last week, so I no longer had photos I had imported this past weekend.   I simply went back to the Browse Backups in the drop down menu, when Time Machine opened I selected the page showing my pictures from this weekend and again said to Restore Library.   Roughly 45 minutes later the library was restored including the most recent photos.
I am now a happy camper.
I don't know if any of this will be of help to you because your email says you are having trouble with photos imported after the upgrade was performed.   Have you had any pop up notices when you first open iphoto, that tell you you need an upgrade to be compatible with the new iphoto?     If so have you clicked "upgrade"?
Good luck Liz, if you have Time Machine running as a back up to your library, maybe you wil be able to get help there, by following my instructions above.   Otherwise,   good luck with your investigations.   I'd be interested in hearing how you make out.

I need to restore my iPhone. Once in iTunes, I get an error message asking me to use my passowrd to unlock phone. The problem is that I can't get to the password lock screen. All I can get is the iTunes screen or the emergency call only screen.

yes did you buy it of somebody or a well known company such as apple or carphone warehouse?
and i mean the phone would have been activated in the first place with the sim card you get given when you first get the phone.
trying to activate the phone with another sim card that you did not get when you brought the phone may result in you not being able to activate it
no worries

Where can I find the default lock screen background / 10.3.1

Hi,
this might be a silly question, I'd love to use the default lock screen background that came with 10.3.1 (the one below) as my main background as well, but I can't find it on my phone.
Does anyone know where it is stored? (not in 'protected_media/wallpapers', apparently :-( )
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Hello,
That's your carrier default wallpaper, you can get it by going to options, display, then click on the advanced button, which looks like an equaliser and then click 'reset to carrier wallpaper'.

I have an iPod touch 2G and I can't set up a passcode lock. I hit "Turn Passcode on" and then enter the passcode I want. Then it brings me back to the Passcode Lock Screen, NOT turning on my passcode.

I hit "Turn Passcode on" and then enter the passcode I want. Then it brings me back to the Passcode Lock Screen, NOT turning on my passcode. Now this iPod touch is a gift from my family, used before me. I set up my iTunes account, but when i view my Apple account it's not showing up. Is this the reason my iPod isnt working? Please help.

The users guide says:
Passcode Lock
By default, iPod touch doesn’t require you to enter a passcode to unlock it.
Set a passcode: Choose General > Passcode Lock and enter a 4-digit passcode, then enter the passcode again to verify it. iPod touch then requires you to enter the passcode to unlock it or to display the passcode lock settings.
Turn passcode lock off: Choose General > Passcode Lock, enter your passcode, and tap Turn Passcode Off, then enter your passcode again.
Change the passcode: Choose General > Passcode Lock, enter your passcode, and tap Change Passcode. Enter your passcode again, then enter and reenter your new passcode.
Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Lock Screen Timeout not working since upgrade to 10.2?

I have always had by Lock Screen Timeout set to 3 mins but since 10.2 upgrade it now appears to be hardcoded to what seems to be about 15 to 30 minutes. Anyone else having this problem?
This is a bit of security problem if you rely upon screen lock to secure your personal data from unauthorised access. If I put the phone down I want to be assured that it will lock out quite quickly.
I suspect that the problem is caused by Lock Screen Notifications so I have switched that off for now to see if it helps. I allow Gestures when locked to unlock the screen. Tend to use the power button to lock. Use gesture to unlock.

Try a reset: when powered on hold down the power button for 10 seconds.
You can restore your phone to factory settings if you wish to see if it corrects your issue. Resetting to factory settings will wipe out all your data so you should save it first. To save all your stuff download and install BlackBerry Link on your computer from the link below. Resetting will not back-up the OS on your phone. Once you have downloaded and installed BlackBerry Link connect your phone to your computer and save your stuff. Once saved disconnect your phone from the computer.
To reset your phone: tap the Settings App, scroll down and tap Security and Privacy, tap Security Wipe, tap the blank box and enter blackberry.
Once Wiped reconnect your phone to your computer and install your stuff.

IOS7 lock screen and wallpaper changes

A friend who just upgraded & is beside herself at the changes to the lock screen and wallpaper in iOS7. Can't seem to make the Move and Scale function work and stick on the Wallpaper, and she hates the keypad overlay blurring out her Lock Screen photo (she had the her Lock Screen photo cleverly sized and positioned in iOS6 so that the keypad was an integral part of the picture). Is there a solution to this in the community?

dclehmkuhl,
This is an absolutely low character and unethical change Apple made starting with iOS 7.0, I believe. I've read rumor that Apple is in bed with a friend of theirs who've they've allowed to make an App, which crops the photo so it will work on the lock screen and background photo. If this is true, this indicates a terrible low character era starting with Apple. An era of Apple beginning to disable standard features and moving them to App makers to generate programmers and funds for friends of the company who make these Apps. I've been submitting Apple feedback since iOS 7.0 regarding this (probably going on 25 to 40 times now) with no updates and now, today, we are on iOS 8.1.1 with no changes. It would follow that this will not be corrected if Apple has allowed App makers to make fixes for this code change. Sad, isn't it. Apple is rolling in so much money and success that they don't fear any repercussions from doing something like this. You think Steve Jobs would have done something like this to the users? I don't think so. If you read Tim Cook's bio, he came from Compaq and IBM. Stars began aligning in my understanding of Tim Cook when I read this and see programming like this. Either he is involved or he is so separate from programming now that he didn't catch the programming change and hasn't noticed this bug. Either way, it's bad news for Apple's success. An unethical CEO or an ignorant one who is no longer in control of the basics.

Lock Screen notification center - I want messages to show in the N/C but not on the actual lock screen itself. Any way to do this?

In ios7, is there any way to have incoming text messages show up in the notification center on the lock screen but not pop up on the actual lock screen itself? I cant get this combination to work and it seems like it shoud. The text notificaitons do not show at all on the L/S notification center unless I choose the allow on lock screen option. But this not only puts it in the L/S notification center but also adds it to the lock screen itself. I dont want it to do both.

Your email accounts will not actually be reset. The only things that will get reset if you hit reset settings will be your homescreen and lockscreen (your pictures will still be on your phone they just default back to the initial ones), the size of your text, the sounds you use for text messages and ringtones (any of the ones that you have specifically customized for certain contacts will not be reset it's only the ones that you use for yourself) and a couple other minor things. None of the apps that you have to set up personall as in facebook or twitter will reset. I really recommend do this, nothing major will get reset on the phone it's just some minor settings. Just make sure to hit 'Reset All Settings' and NOT 'Reset All Content And Settings'.
I've also tried it with messages app specifically after I hit 'Reset All Settings' and it works like a charm. No messages pop up on my screen but I can access and preview in the notification center without having to unlock my phone.

http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1827
Restart your device
Hold the On/Off button until "slide to power off" appears. Slide to power off your device. When it is off, press the On/Off button to turn it back on.
If you can't restart your device, reset it by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for a least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
Clean the screen with a soft, slightly damp, lint-free cloth.
Avoid using the device while wearing gloves, with wet hands, or immediately after applying hand lotion.
If you have a protective case, or if you are using a plastic sheet or film on the display, try removing them and testing the device without it.
Best of luck,
Mario

What's a "frozen lock screen?"

How do we change the Yosemite lock-screen background?

How do we change the Yosemite lock-screen background?
Would like it to match our desktop.
At present, lock-screen appears to be a blurred version of one of the standard Yosemite desktops.

It typically uses your Screen Saver definition in System Preferences > Desktop & Screen Saver > Screen Saver tab.
Or I'm misunderstanding the question...
