Centro (Verizon) always automatically locks REGARDLESS of Preferences setting to NEVER automatically lock

The subject line says it all: I set the security preference to NEVER auto-lock, and guess what?? Yep, THE PHONE AUTO-LOCKS ANYWAY!!! Is there some feature that's not documented that I should know about in order to get the Palm Centro to actually function as documented in the manuals???

I have as vanilla as possible a Palm device.  Only extra items:  DbFixIT, and a few (5 total) ringtones.  Below are my settings in PREFERENCES, and in SECURITY.  I wonder if the problem is repeatable.  If you have a Verizon Centro lying around, can you set it as below?   Is the system password-locket after overnight inactivity?
My settings are:
On PREFERENCES app:
Auto-Keyguard: When power is off
Disable toucscreen when:  Incoming calls received, and While on a call.
Power:  Auto-off after: 3 minutes
 Beam Receive: off
 Backlight during calls:  Dim, after 30 seconds
Bluetooth: Off 
On SECURITY app:
 Password:  [assigned]
Auto-Lock Device:
  Never
Current Privacy:  
 Hide Records

  • Manage My Places/Google Search in iPhoto has stopped working.  I have always had my Look Up Places Preference set to Never.  Any ideas?

    I am running iPhoto 09 v8.1.2 and w/c 18th Nov Manage My Places/Google Search stopped working.  I have always Managed My Places with my Look Up Places Preference set to Never.  I have not updated any software in the past week.  Any ideas?

    That's not my experience Larry, although I'm not an expert.  It was one of your earlier responses to someone else that made me check this preference out.  However, I've set it to automatically and google search in Manage My Places doesn't work and the "find on map" option on the photo information tab doesn't work. 
    What does works with it set to automatically is if I enter "Merida, Mexico" in the photo place it will list a number of towns called Merida and I can select the Mexican one.  If I enter "Calle 49, Merida, Mexico" it doesn't list anything but it does offer the "find on map" option.  If I select this it loops. 
    I've checked my software updates and nothing on my Mac has changed in the time between this working and ceasing to work.  I'm just trying to establish if anyone else has experienced difficulty with the google search under manage my places in iPhoto recently.

  • Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off"

    Since upgrading to Yosemite my macbook pro keeps going to sleep if I am not using it. I want it to stay on as I leave it doing things overnight (cd's  / recording etc. It was fine before the upgrade and I have all the system preference set to "never turn off" - Help !!!

    Good advice from Linc Davis that should sort out your query i think...
    However you dont want to set your MBP to never go to sleep...
    Adjust reasonable sleep settings...
    And the download an APP called caffiene...
    When you click it you can have your MBP never go to sleep with a single click of your menu bar... and with another click it can go to sleep normally to maintain the laptop...
    Simply click the cup... To toggle never sleep/sleep

  • Safari 5.0.5 in Snow Leopard allows cookies to be set despite preferences set to NEVER.  How do I correct this glitch?

    Safari 5.0.5 in Snow Leopard allows cookies to be set despite preferences set to NEVER.  How do I correct this glitch?

    I just upgraded Safari to 5.1.5 and I'm having the same problem.  Despite the settings to BLOCK all cookies, cookies pile up like snow in a blizzard.  Ironically, the only site I've encountered whose cookies are actually blocked by Safari's preference setting is Apple's.
    I couldn't log in because my preferences were set to BLOCK.  Doesn't stop any other site from setting cookies, only Apple's so far.
    As for Lion - I've been told it's unstable.  I have already lost half my music files upgrading to Snow Leopard and
    would rather avoid going through that again after spending a great deal of time retreiving the loss.  I've decided to wait until all of Lion's glitches are resolved.
    Here is a link to the many pages discussing this cookie problem, and no solution in sight.  https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3140339?start=150&tstart=0
    I assume you are on Lion.  And Safari's cookies preferences work as expected for you?

  • MLB.TV scores displayed regardless of preference setting

    Has anyone else noticed that the scores in MLB.TV are now displayed, whether or not you have chosen to hide or show them?
    This seems like a serious bug. It's ridiculous to have to avert your eyes if you don't want to know the outcome of a recorded game beforehand that you're about to view.
    This is only happening not that'd I've updated to v.5.0
    Apparently, this is a known bug, along with no longer being able to skip by inning. Here's a link to mlb.tv forum and folks posting about it if it's of any interest to readers here...

  • How to set "from" field in Versamail 4.0.1 EAS / Palm Centro Verizon

    I have set up a Palm Centro to sync via Activesync using Versamail 4.01.00. All seems to be working normally but there doesn't seem to be a place to set the senders proper first and last name as the sender. When I send an outbound message the recipient receives the message from login "username" instead of "Firstname Lastname". Anyone know where to change this?
    Thanks,

  • Just a comment concerning Centro (Verizon) Zire 72 Office 2010 beta

    Well I finally got way too tired of the problems with my Centro (Verizon): crashing, intermittent sync problems with Outlook 2003. I have always loved the Palm operating system until the Centro (Verizon) version (never figured out whether this was a "Access" or "Verizon" problem). After a year and a half of messing around and losing data, I ditched the Centro and fired up my old Zire 72s. I uninstalled desktop by Access 6.2.2, (did a registry clean), installed Palm desktop 4.1e and Outlook 2007 updater and believe it or not it syncs flawlessly with Outlook 2010 beta.  This worked for me; I can't say whether it will work for all the other situations that are out there. I'm am happy now; a stable machine with a large screen. (although I do not particularly like carrying around a cell phone and a PDA). I might try Palm Web OS later (if I like the screen).

    Palm OS is a dying software it's good to see that you have had success with it working with Outlook 2010, without knowing anything firm or forseeing the future I would be skeptical to even see it get supported for Palm OS.

  • Unlocking contacts for BT connection to 2010 Lexus RX (Palm Centro Verizon)

    Easy enough to pair the Centro to the Lexus (with Navigation), however, contacts will not transfer as they are locked on the Centro.  How can I unlock it and transfer my 900+ contacts?

    When you say they are locked, do you mean they are marked as private?
    Unless you make the records private, they should transfer to the car kit.
    On Page 197 of the user guide are the instructions regarding private records. See if the records are marked as private and if they are, make them visible and then try again.
    Go to the learn tab on the support page for the user guide.
    For reference purposes, click on the following link for the support page for your device on the kb.palm.com webpage.
    http://kb.palm.com/SRVS/NUA/launchTab.asp?t=home&fn=centro&mn=centro&cn=verizon
    There are links on the page to the user guide, troubleshooting, how to's, downloads, etc.
    Have you verified that your Centro is compatible with your Lexus?
    This is the car kit that states it is compatible;
    Lexus (Denso)
    Is your Lexus equipped with this car kit?

  • My mobile phone is always automatically shut down at the time of the photo.

    My mobile phone is always automatically shut down at the time of the photo.

    Plug the device into a wall outlet and leave it for about 20 minutes. If it has not powered on at that point try a reset by pressing and holding the home and power buttons for about 15 seconds until the white Apple logo appears.

  • Palm Centro Verizon, Palm Desktop 4.1.4, Calendar WILL NOT SYNC

    as above.  I tried to install the V6.2 desktop that came with the phone; the Hotsync crashes every time it starts (some HS20Log.dll problem), so I installed 4.1.4.
    The calendar will not sync.  It hangs forever and ever.  Everything else syncs just fine.
    I brought my trusty M515 home, synced it with the home computer, then synced the Centro to get the data.  It synced ONCE (the calendar) and never again.
    I reformatted the disk and reinstalled the OS (XP SP3), got the same V6.2 hotsync problem and reverted to 4.1.4, and that's where I am now.
    Help.
    Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

    Glad you got things to sync, just a quick thought.
    4.1.4 is a rather old version of Palm Desktop.  I would have suggested you try 4.1.4E, as it was designed for later devices and has some updated USB drivers in it...

  • How to synch Palm Centro (Verizon Wireless) with Windows 7, 64 bit??????

    You cannot natively sync a PalmOS device with a 64bit OS via USB - the solution is to do it wirelessly.

  • Always auto locks by itself

    My iPad 2 always auto locks by itself even though the auto lock time is not up yet. Went to the service centre and was told that it was the software issue & the most common problem iPad faces. A restore of the iPad via iTunes will cure this issue.  I did a restore but the proble started again.....! Help.....

    If it is not an Exhange account issue and you have restored to no avail, try a reset. Hold down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time until the Apple logo appears - takes about 10-15 seconds. Ignore the red slider.

    It may well be a driver issue but considering the loading: Xorg trying to load different drivers is somewhat normal. @cafe you can see that these are autoconfigured by X above the loading in the log:
    Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 0
    Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched intel as autoconfigured driver 1

    Jul 20 19:48:24 arch gdm-Xorg-:0[216]: (==) Matched vesa as autoconfigured driver 4
    As long as one of the drivers gets loaded, which it apparently does the failing of the others is fine.
    Was there an update maybe ?

  • Hotsync Centro (Verizon) to ms exchange

    I need help please.  I have a new Centro (Verizon) which I am trying to sync to my work calendar and contacts (email is not important but would be nice).  The work stuff is on an exchange server so when I sync the centro to my outlook, nothing is being synced. Is there a way to sync all of my work stuff with my Centro without doing it wirelessly (I do not have a data plan).
    Thanks in advance

    That does help. Thank you. From the log file it shows that it is not set to Outlook. So I would have you uninstall the Desktop. Make sure when you uninstall that you delete this folder as well. C:\Program Files\Palm or Palm One. Restart your PC and install Palm Desktop pick Outlook and sync.

  • InteractiveSyn causes Centro(Verizon) to freeze

    Every time my Centro is about to be updated and shortly after it is updated it freezes up.  Nothing will work.  No calls can be received or made.  Nothing will work.  If the screen is on, it stays on but frozen.  If the screen is off, it cannot be turned on.  This can last for several minutes.
    Post relates to: Centro (Verizon)

    Tony, we need more information from you in order to help...
    The title of your post has "Interactive Syn" in it.  We've never heard of that before, and are assuming it's some program you've installed on the phone by yourself.
    It was suggested you delete it.
    Are you confusing Microsoft ActiveSync  for "Interactive Syn"?
    There is no "ActiveSync" on a Centro.  Do you have an email account set up on the phone that uses Exchange Activesync?   This may be the source of your problem!
