Can we turn off calls, text, & data but not wifi?
If we go to India and want to only use wifi to call with skype or similar service, can we we turn of incoming/outgoing calls & texts, as well as data on our Verizon Samsung Galaxy s5?
If we can, please advise simple and complete directions to turn off calls, texts, and data services while roaming so we will not be charged for any services while still being able to use wifi, and how to reverse that when we return to the us.
Thank you.

airplane mode will also disable wifi. go into settings, more networks, mobile networks and uncheck mobile data. the part of the phone that does calls and texts cant be shut off without shutting off…
airplane mode doesn't disable wi-fi

Can't turn off twitter text notifications. I tried settings, notifications, but the notification center doesn't have the twitter option. I also tried settings, sounds, tweet, none- for alert tones. This is still not turning it off. Twitter people said it's not their problem. Is anyone having this problem?
It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

Can't turn off caller id in ios5
How do I turn off caller ID in ios5?
Just to make sure you didn't overlook the obvious (we all do it more often than we care to admit). Can you toggle the other services in the Sharing pane? Perhaps you just need to click on the padlock and authenticate before you can make changes.
Second thing to try. Make sure System Preferences is not open. Look in the user's Home folder/Library/Caches. Find a cache item com.apple.preferencepanes.cache. Delete this item. Log the user out and log back in. Now open System Preferences and see if you can make the changes.
Third thing to try. Here are the items that get changed in the /etc/cups/cupds.conf file when you turn Printer Sharing OFF---
line 55 becomes
ServerName 127.0.0.1
lines 453 and 454 become
#Port 631
Listen 127.0.0.1:631
line 581 becomes
#BrowseAddress @LOCAL
line 635 becomes
BrowseInterval 0
line 826 Allow From @LOCAL
is deleted and the block from line 822 through 826 becomes
<Location />
Order Deny,Allow
Deny From All
Allow From 127.0.0.1
</Location>
All these changes are taken from a modification of the default cupsd.conf as supplied with the version of CUPS Apple supplies with Tiger. The cupsd.conf that comes with version 1.2.x is most likely different. You will have to do some comparison and interpretation.
Hope this helps.
EDIT: Don't forget to recycle the cupsd whenever you make a change to the configuration file.
sudo killall -HUP cupsd

Yes, you can turn off cellular data. You will not be able to use Visual Voicemail or get MMS messages, however. -
I can't turn off "share crash data with app developers"
I enabled this feature accidentally during the onboarding process for my new Macbook Pro, and now I can't turn it off as the button is greyed out.
The feature is located in in System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Privacy.
Any suggestions for how to do this?cezinho,
Click on "Send diagnostics & usage data to Apple."
That will enable you to change "Share crash data with app developers." -
My Mom has tremors and when she uses her iPhone and taps to select, the way she hits the keyboard causes the copy selection to appear. It is not an issue with her phone because it does not do this for me. I would like to shut off the double tap feature. I have already tried Settings/General/Accessibility/Home speed typing = slowest.
The editing menu doesn't come up when you double tap. It comes up when you press and hold. It can't be turned off.

Turn off e-mail notification but not other?
Hi,
just bought the new Xperia Z3 Compact and I love the phone so far.
I have one problem though:
I want to have different notification signals for different apps and I have found my way in the menys to fix that.
BUT
for E-mail I do not want any notification signal at all, only the icon at the status bar.
I cannot find any setting within the e-mail app for notification, do I have to set the standard notification signal to none?
If so, will a new sms or calendar reminder notify me anyway?
I have tried this setting for a day now but it seems as if all notifications are turned off if the standard is set to none..?
Help please.Actually, we still have settings for notifications in the email app but it's a bit hidden. You need to go to Email -> [menu] -> Settings -> [your account] and then tap the text "Notification" (don't tap the switch next to it).

I am trying to arrange my photostream saved search (which doesn't update automatically after I did the search for the first time which is very annoying) but finder won't let me arrange in ascending order of date (i.e.: oldest to newest). Is there a way I can do this or will my folder arrangements always be the one way without the option to change it to the opposite arrangement (same for alphabetical). Also, Finder automatically arranges my photos into groups of dates (e.g.: 'previous 30 days', 'September'). Is there any way I can turn this off?
Also if anyone can fix this stupid photostream issue for me that would be great!
thanks very muchEven in list view, the photos are grouped by previous seven days, previous 30 days, October, and so on.. there is no option i see that will let me change to order by date modified without these groupings or to just turn these groupings off altogether
but thank you for your reply

How can I turn off Calendar text reminder
I keep receiving Calendar "text" reminders, in addition to Notification Reminders. It's ANNOYING because I already choose which events I want a notification for, within the New Event "form" each-time I create a new event. I can choose to be alerted 5min, 1hr, 2days before the Event ...or I can choose "none"....... However, even if I choose "none" I keep getting incoming text reminders to my text messages, in addition to a screen Notification (which I prefer). No matter what, I will get a text reminder. I put on my calendar; Tuesday 28th/4pm/Portland trip/no alerts... just so I know not to schedule anything else that day, not because I need a remindeder. So it obeys me and doest send the Notification pop-up, but while I'm driving to Portland an incoming text comes in at 4pm to remind me OF WHAT I'M ALREADY DOING. How can I make these dual reminders stop? I will gladly choose one or the other....either a Text or a Screen Notification. Any help you can offer would be great. Thank you!
Are you perhaps using Google Calendar as your main calendar service? There is an option in Google Calendar to have text alerts sent to your phone for events. Log into Google Calendar on your computer and disable that feature.
If you're using a different calendar service, see if they have a similar set up. -
