Cellular Data turned off, Data Roaming greyed out and shows as on

I've googled the **** out of this and still can't find the answer so here goes.
If I have both Cellular Data and Data Roaming ON and then turn Cellular Data OFF then the Data Roaming label and ON/OFF toggle both turn grey and light blue respectively, but the Data Roaming still shows as ON (in light blue not the regular blue colour). Does this mean that Data Roaming is actually still on? If not, then why doesn't it show as OFF or are we supposed to interpret the fact that it is greyed out to mean that it is actually off when it shows ON?

You're welcome.
I don't see what difference it makes. Cellular Data off means cellular data is off. Someone who is roaming internationally with Data Roaming turned on wants data turned off completely for a period of time can turn Cellular Data off without turning Data Roaming off. When turning Cellular Data back on, Data Roaming is already on.
An iPhone can exchange SMS for certain with Cellular Data turned off, but I don't believe the same applies to MMS.
Having 3G network access on or off has 3G network access on or off only. The same amount of data will be exchanged with 3G access off only at a slower rate. If you download the same photo via a fast broadband connection vs via a much slower old dial-up connection, the same amount of data will be downloaded only slower via the dial-up connection.

  • My password lock cannot be turned off (button is greyed out and does not react) and I cannot set to "simple" password (4 digits) for the same reason (button greyed out)

    Today, I got a message from my iphone 4 telling me that my password was expired and that I had to change it.
    Now I am forced to enter a 8 character long password and I cannot turn off the password lock (button is greyed out and does not react) and I cannot change to "simple" code.
    I am so upset that I am considering throwing the bloody thing to the rubbish bin
    Can you help?

    Have a work Exchange account on your phone? These policies can be enforced by a profile installed on your phone. There is nothing you can do to change this except delete the Exchange account.

  • Why is cellular data randomly greyed out on my ipad2?

    Sometimes when I want to use 3G on my iPad 2, cellular data is greyed out.  It only returns with a hard reboot. I have an up to date plan on at&t and am running iOS 5.1.
    Not a major crisis, just wanted to see if anyone has the same problem or a solution.
    Thanks.

    The simple and quick solution by "dale from sf" worked for me. No reboot needed.
    If you do not know how to "terminate" Settings, here is the gory detail. Many words to read, just a few seconds to do.
    Press the "Settings" icon to open the Settings app. Observe that Airplane Mode is OFF and Cellular Data is (improperly) grayed out.
    Press the Home button once to exit Settings.
    Double-tap the Home button. (The contents of the screen will slide up an inch and look like it's behind smoked glass. The bottom row of the screen--which won't look like smoked glass--will display the icons of the last few apps you have run. The Settings icon, run most recently, will be the leftmost of those icons.)
    Press and hold the Settings icon (at the left end of the bottom row) for about 2 seconds until a "minus badge" (red circle with white minus sign inside) appears near the top left corner of the Settings icon.
    Tap the red "minus badge". (This will "terminate" the current run of the Settings app but leave the app installed on your iPad. Your settings won't change, but if you were in the middle of a process such as joining a wi-fi network or setting up a mail account, it may not complete and you may need to restart that process from the beginning.)
    Press the "Settings" icon to open the Settings app. Confirm that Cellular Data is no longer grayed out. (If it is still grayed out, this method did not work folr you, Power off the iPad and power it back on.)

    Same here.... No fix. Replacing is the option apparently and if you're out of warranty, you're SOL. That was as per the "Genius" at Apple.

  • My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management

    I have recently purchased a Mac computer (updated to Maverick) to go with my Epson Stylus Photo RX500 printer which has given excellent service with my old Windows computer. However, when trying to print pictures or photos via Photoshop Elements 11, the best results I can get are using the Colour Management and Epson Colour controls in the printing options box.
    My problem is that after printing the first photo or picture, when I come to print a second, both the Colour Management and Epson Colour Controls are greyed out and showing No Colour Management, The only way I can reset the controls is to shut down the printer and computer and restart.
    Could there may be a setting somewhere that I need to adjust please?  I have been in touch with Epson and they say that the Epson Colour controls are part of the Photoshop Elements software but a post on the Adobe forum brought no results and I am unable to contact Adobe.
    <Edited by Host>

    Hello Garry. Thanks for the reply. I guess I should have used a different title from "How do I post a question?" That should come after trying to resolved the colour settings first. However, to answer your question, after experimenting with all the different settings in Photoshop Elements and Epson software, I now start with PSE11 Colour settings then click "no colour management" then after clicking Print, I choose "More Options/Colour Management/Colour Handling/Printer Manages Colour" then I choose "Page Setup/Layout/Colour Matching" which then shows Epson Colour Controls but I also choose "Layout/Colour Management" which then shows "Colour Controls/Mode" I then of course choose an Epson printer profile depending on the paper I am using. I get good results but as I said, the Colour Matching and Colour Controls are then greyed out. Hope that makes sense.

  • HT201415 I inserted a working sim card but iPad(2) says "no SIM" - cellular data setting greyed out

    I inserted a working SIM card into my iPad 2. It picked up the network but later gave a message saying "No SIM". The Cellular Data control option is greyed out so I cannot get in to this function. I have tried removing the SIM and re-inserting as well as re-starting. This made no difference. Any suggestions why this is the case? I have tried the SIM in my iPhone 4 and it works fine. Thank you.

    The SIM was taken from my iPhone. It is an extra line and was used for voice calls etc. So, it appears as though I need to get a dedicated data SIM. Appreciate the assistance..many thanks!

  • TS1559 I have two problems but since they both started at the same time I'm guessing that they are related. My WiFi on/off button is greyed out AND my iCloud Drive (under "Settings") has been "Upgrading" with that spinning download symbol for 2 wks now! N

    I cant be positive but I think this started when my iPhone did an automatic software update. I couldn't get any WiFi connection because when I go to turn it back on the iPhone wont let me and Greys out my WiFi on/off button.
    But also I think something happened to my iCloud connect as well because next to my iCloud Drive under "Settings" it has that spinning symbol that usually denotes waiting for something to finish downloading. But this time it never stopped! Its been spinning saying "iCloud is Upgrading" for 2 weeks now! I have tried the on/off iPhone restart or reset, and I've even put my iPhone into "Recovery Mode" as a last resort. but when iTunes was finished "Restoring" it, nothing had changed; Still Greyed out WiFi button and iCloud is still "Upgrading"! Help please!

    Hi Ichin,
    I am a bit confused with your statement -
    if ((p_select_list is not null) and (p_text_field is not null)) then
    return true;
    elsif ((p_select_list is null) and (p_text_field is null)) then
    return true;
    else
    return false;
    end if;Here this statement -
    if ((p_select_list is not null) and (p_text_field is not null)) then
    return true;returning the result TRUE when both fields are not null
    And this statement -
    elsif ((p_select_list is null) and (p_text_field is null)) then
    return true;returning the result TRUE again when both fields are null. If you see closely basically is not validating becoz it returning true whatever the input is.
    I do not know what you want to use the second statement when you have else statement at the end. It will return false if one or both fields are null unless you want to validate either text field.
    Hope this make sense.

  • Wi-fi icon greyed out and showing "No Network selected"

    I have an iMac (20 inch; early 2009) running Lion and use an Airport Extreme as my router. The Airport Extreme is connected to my computer and all others in the home connect through it wirelessly.
    Lately, if the Mac has been off or in sleep mode, when I wake it or turn it o, I'm still connected to the internet but the wi-fi icon is greyed out. When I click on the icon, it shows "No Network Selected" and then begins searching for a network. My network pops up as an available network, but I have to choose it each time.
    This never happened until a couple days ago. I haven't made any changes to software, hardware, etc. and all software is up-to-date. The only thing I've done a couple days ago was a soft reset of the Airport Extreme, as my Apple TV was acting strangely. I pushed the reset button and everything was fine with the Apple TV.
    No other devices or computers on the network are having any problem with the network.
    Could the soft reset have done this? If so, what can I do get the wi-fi and the network to work together again? If not, any suggestions as to how to fix this?
    Also, how do I determine the generation of the Airport Extreme? It was purchased in April/May 2009.
    Thanks very much.
    Sheri

    Have you tried power cycling your wireless router? First step would be to turn it off, wait a minute and turn back on. Is this router supporting other wireless equipment, such as computers, and how are they working?
    Do a hard reset on the iPad, hold both the sleep and home buttons until the Apple Logo appears.
    Reenter all of the network settings manually.
    Then try to connect and see if it is working correctly.
    Problems like this can be hard to separate router issues from iPad issues until you try several things on each.

    An app is considered to be installed if it shows up in a Spotlight search of local volumes. Bring up a search window in the Finder by pressing the key combination command-F. Search This Mac for the name of the application. Delete all copies that are found.

    I hope this will help you with your problem:
    Back up and restore your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch using iCloud or iTunes - Apple Support
    You can restore your backup whenever you want from iTunes or iCloud, depending where you made it.
    Let us know if you succeeded or need any further help.
    I believe you are missing the point. The OP has already restored from back up, but failed to include a specific app in the back up and is trying to recover data for it, which in this case is not possible.

  • Having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this

    having a problem with dates when I send my numbers doc to excel. dates are all out and that they have to cut and paste individual entries onto their spreadsheet. Any idea how I can prevent this.
    I'm using Lion on an MBP and Numbers is the latest version

    May you give more details about what is wrong with your dates ?
    M…oSoft products aren't allowed on my machines but I use LibreOffice which is a clone of Office.
    When I export from Numbers to Excel and open the result with LibreOffice, the dates are correctly treated.
    To be precise, dates after 01/01/1904 are correctly treated. dates before 01/01/1904 are exported as strings but, as it's flagged during the export process, it's not surprising.
