Can you turn off the charging feature when using accessories?

Can you turn off the charging feature when using accessories with the iPad?

You cannot overcharge the battery when using the power adapter. Once the battery is fully charged, the iPad will no longer continue to charge if it is still connected. I leave my iPad on the power adapter for hours on end - on weekends when I am not at work.

These are both worthwhile reading for concerns about the battery and how to properly maintain it.
I know nothing about external speakers with the iPad since I do not use them - but If the speaker is with a dock of some sort that charges the iPad - you should have no worries. If it is a dock that charges the iPad - I know of no way to turn off the charging feature, but it will not shorten the life of the battery anyway as long as the battery is properly maintained and cared for.

  • Can you turn off the voice tags when someone rings...

    I think the subject says it all, but here's the story - My girlfriend's sister has an E71, and a ringtone she really likes.  She wants to be able to hear the ringtone without interruption when people call, but for all my poking about in the menu and settings I can't find a way to turn off the voice tag that announces the name of the person ringing.  The tags are somewhat annoying anyway because they don't tend to read Irish names very well 'Grainne' being pronounced as 'grain' and such.
    Can those tags be disabled?  If they can, how?
    Thanks.

    also dont forget to activate the profile your using once this is done or it will revert to default

  • Can you turn off the "Charging not supported with this device" messages?

    I recently bought a standard dock extender cable in order to connect my iPad to my Apple HiFi and have had music from Pandora constantly interrupted by sporadic "Charging not supported with this device" messages. The messages will continue to come up repeatedly despite pressing the "Dismiss" bar repeatedly.
    Is there a way to turn those kinds of warnings off in either iPad Settings or in iTunes when docking the iPad?

    Try connecting the iPad to the iPod Hi-Fi with a male to male mini-stereo cable. I use one of these cables to connect my Airport Express to my iPod Hi-Fi, so that I can use it with AirTunes.
    You can even combine the cable with the Apple iPad Dock, which would let you charge the iPad while using it with the iPod Hi-Fi.

    How can you turn off the braille setting on an iPhone 4s, once on it won't let you slide the phone into use mode to change the settings or do anything?

    An alternate method is Accessibility Settings when connected to iTunes. You should be able to turn it off there. I would also check out some of the answers listed to the right of this post and see if they can help.

    How can you turn off the sounds for receiving a text or e-mail while on a phone call???

    That's the most stupid thing. It may work but the phone shouldn't be going off in your ear while in use from the start.

  • Can you turn off the automatic guide grids in Aperture books?

    Can you turn off the automatic guide grids in Aperture books?

    Yes you can do this - either the way you're already doing it by editing the published content or by changing the source code in the template itself.
    I won't get into the details here cuz I have all this documented here:
    http://web.mac.com/sboben/iWeb/11Mystics/
    See the iWeb Templates page. In short, what you have to do is show package contents for the iWeb app, open the Resources folder, open the .lproj folder for YOUR language, likely english, open the Templates folder and then one by one, for each page-type folder you find in there, you have to show package contents for your chosen template, unzip the index.xml.gz files, find the hyperlink settings in the XML, turn off the underline setting, save the file again and rezip it. Then any NEW pages you build will not contain underlined links. It sounds worse than it is.
    If you tell me which template you're using, I'll go look in the file and tell you how to turn the underline code OFF. But you should read my instructions at my site before you even try to do this - I outline some things you should know before even opening up those XML files.

  • How can I turn off the Pinch feature while in IE Browser yet continue to use the writing feature

    I found that I can use a stylus pen while in a browser with my HP TouchSmart 300.  It works flawlessly to write however when I rest my hand on the screen (to write)  it recognizes my hand as one point and the stylus pen as the other and the pinch feature makes my screen big or small.  If I could turn off the pinch feature yet leave the writing feature on, all would be perfect.  Can anyone help, please

    It's not possible, it doesn't use pressure on the screen to sense your stylus or hand, it uses the sensor array around the screen.
