Can you get rid of the alternative letters when typing a text message? Ie all the accented versions etc?

I've just upgraded from and iPhone 3GS to the iPhone 5 and I'm finding it really slow to text because you have to wait for it to bring up all the options.
Before it'll put the letter there.
I don't have them on my iPad.

Hi Victoria, guess I should have thought ahead and not assumed you were US-based...can never tell when a poster has flawless English
Good to hear the problem is cleared up, but curious about the US keyboards since my iPhone has three plus the British.
Another trick when the iPhone gets slow or acts up, do a reboot, also called a soft reset, by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears and it restarts.  If the red slider appears just ignore it and the iPhone will eventually do the logo-restart.  That clears a great many minor problems in the operating system.

    When I send a text message using Siri how do I get it to put in the correct punctuation? If I want to ask a question it bugs me there is no question mark.

    You actually have to say "question mark" at the end (you can also say period, comma, etc)

    When taking a picture with home and sleep button can you get rid of the tool and task bar?? (the search bars)

    No, but you can use any picture editing tool to crop out the bars.  (Many are free in the App Store.)  Me personally, I use PhotoPad, which I use to crop as well as rotate the screen shot.  Takes less than a minute to do both with PhotoPad.

  • How can i get copied to my 14 year-old daughter's text messages without her knowledge?

    how can i get copied to my 14 year-old daughter's text messages without her knowledge?

    Unless the cell carrier would provide such a service, which if they do would only be available to you if you are the owner of her cell account, then it's not possible without hacking the iPhone, something we cannot discuss here. And if she has the account in her name, then as SeaBeast suggested such hacking may well be illegal. Even 14-year-olds have privacy rights. You would have to discuss that with a lawyer, though.
    Regards.

  • How can I get rid of tabbed browsing? I positively hate it and none of the choices in tools get rid of them.

    I was using an older version of FF because the newer versions had messed up private browsing and I had the option of deciding if I wanted tabbed browsing. I switched to a newer version because a lot of sites didn't work with the older version.
    I went into tools - tabs and checked what I used to use not to get tabbed browsing. Doesn't work.
    Please tell me how to get rid of tabbed browsing and how to switch back and forth to private and regular browsing without opening a new tab/window.
    If I can't get rid of tabbed browsing I guess I'll muddle along with an older version.

  • I can't get rid of an old email that I set up apps on in the past. I don't have a password. I can't update anything.

    I have an old email that I can't get rid of. Every time I try to install app updates it asks for my password (which I don't remember, and I don't have that email to receive anything). I have gone to settings in icloud and I only have my updated info. Help! I can't even play some of the games without doing an update.

    Hi THIVELY,
    Since applications from the app store are linked to the Apple ID - in this case your old email - used to purchase or obtain them, you will need to have the password to that Apple ID in order to update those apps. This article will tell  you how to reset that password so you can continue to use that Apple ID -
    If you forgot your Apple ID password
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Best,

  • How can I get rid of by back/foward buttons and move my url bar to the right of my tabs, as I had in the previous version of firefox?

    Before I updated Firefox, my tabs were on the same line as the search/url bar, and I didn't have the back/forward buttons. I liked the simple design I had, but now it doesn't seem like I can go back to that setting.

    There is an extension which gives you a lot of control over your toolbar layout. It is described and linked in this article: [[How to make the new Firefox look like the old Firefox]]. Can you get the result you're looking for?

  • WebElements  Can't get rid of border inside iFrame when CR report is loaded

    I am runing reports from the CR Crystal report 2008 view that launches from Infoview and I can't get rid of a border that is in the inside of the iframe when the iframe has a CR loaded within it  .  (I uploaded screenshots here...  https://cw.sdn.sap.com/cw/ideas/4288)
    The issue isn't with the iFrame itself.  When I just throw an WEIframe on a CR report, I can control the frameborder by modifiying the WEIFRAME function's frameborder setting, toggling it on and off and it looks great.
    Where I am having problems is when I put load a CR report inside of an iFrame.  I changed the ReportMode to weblayout, I've made the report margins to be zero, removed the scrollbars and menubar.  Still, I get that pesky inside border.
    I've changed the opendoc sReportMode to Weblayout, gotten rid of preview panel, margins in my CR report, removed toolbar and menu bar from the reports and iframe
    Today, we went into our BO Server, found every instance of OpenDocument.jsp and added the frameborder ="0" parameter at the bottom of the script to the iframe definition.
    After the changes my BOE Admin restarted the Apache webservices. 
    Is there something else that needs to be re-deployed or re-started??
    thanks!
    -Pam

    Jamie/Ludek --
    Hopefully my post will help you help other people having this issue.
    Yes, as it turns out, this issue was not related to WebElements, but was an issue with the CR Viewer.
    The KB that Ludek referred me to did have code to add to the web.config, but it didn't do a thing.
    Ultimately, I found reference to this ussue bug #ADAPT01417734.  A fix was first bundled in fix pack 3.1, but it wasn't completely fixed until SP 4.0. (Known Limitations:  There will still be a 1 pixel wide border around the viewer even though the toolbar and drilldown tabs are hidden. The fix for the 1 pixel border will be delivered in Service Pack 4.)
    Our server is BOXI R3 FP 2.6 and applying service packs is, in itself, a pain and a risk and requires a testing effort that we couldn't afford right now.
    So, I patched my own local instance of CR 2008 to SP4.0 and then pulled the files that were identified as 'fixed' according to the release notes to my BO Server and put them in the correct destination folders:
    allInOne.js
    dom.js
    processindicator.js
    psheet.js
    ReportAlbum.js
    ReportPage.js
    ReportView.js
    Style.css
    Viewer.js 
    OK, it's a hack, but once I did that, ALL of the gray borders around my weIframes went away!!  I can still control a nice little border via the  frameborder attribute in the weIframe ()
    thanks for your help!

  • How can you get rid of the stripe on the homescreen created in ios 7?

    I found this question some months ago, but no one had a method to resolve it.
    I wanted to remove the solid stripe across the bottom of my ipad 4 homescreen.  I think it's been called an app park, a shelf, and an applications easy access.  Whatever it is, I really hate it. I like a solid black screen.  There was a transparency to the old ios---I have on my iphone because I didn't update it to 7 when I found out it did this.  This one is solid and grey! Really ugly.  Is there any way to get rid of it, make it transparent, or  at least minimize it? 

    Hi again. Well, it isn't death-defying or anything. And it isn't only because I CAN'T customize it and that burns me.    It wastes my desktop space because I don't use it.  When you are visually impaired---real estate on the desktop is pretty important.  I usually have a black screen to see the icons better, but if I have a picture---the bottom is chopped off with this ugly gray stripe.  The old 6.0.3 had the shelf, but it was transparent.  It didn't bother me.  This one does.  That simple.  I thought I saw instructions to at least change the color or something somewhere, but that was when it was new, and I can't find that again anywhere online.  I guess everyone else got on board (moo), and I'm the only one left that still hates it.
    I know these things are supposed to be updates, but I think Apple missed the boat on this one and screwed up a good thing.  Maybe they fixed it in 7.4? (wishful) Anyway, I'm not even offered that IOS.  Mine is still asking me to update to 7.1.  I guess you have to update in order?  I'm working in 7.0.4; that's the IOS that came with the unit in December.

  • How, on the ipod touch 5th gen, can you get rid of songs in the songlist?  I restored from a stolen ipod touch 4th gen, and now there is a bunch of crap that is not even mine on this thing.  The songs only show up in the songs listing.

    I had my last ipod stolen, when I got the 5th Gen I restored from my old ipod from itunes and now there is a bunch of crap on there that I don't want, but the songs only show up on the ipod so I can not delete them off of the ipod from itunes.  Any quick fixes to remove the unwanted songs, or do I have to start over completely?

    Do they play on the iPod?
    If not then they are corrupted.
    Connect the iPod to your computer and look at the storage used by the various categories as shown in the colored bargarph in iTunes.
    Come back with the results.
