Dialing numbers when someone asks you to dial 1,2...
I have a problem with my extension phone, when I ring a company and they ask you to dial 1 to get through to sales etc and then 2 for another extension my extension phone will not do this. I have to go to my main phone in the house and then dial 1 or 2 etc. It will then work.
As my computer is near the extension I wish to use this so I can see the computer screen.
Is this because the extension phone is an old one, but then again so is the main phone in the house.
I have tried to have live chat with BT but all they want to do is to send out an engineer and charge me some exorbitent fee.
Any help would be appreciated.
Your extension phone is probably set to pulse dialling, a relic of the eighties ! Does it have a * and # either side of the 9, (pressing the * key whilst on a call changed the key pad to tone dialling), if so look for a switch on the side of the phone and set it MF T. If not you need a new modern phone.

When someone messages you from their iPhone or iPad you receive the message to your iPhone or iPad but you don't know whether it is from their iPhone or their iPad. That needs to be updated.
Why does it matter?
It's the person who sent the message that is important, not which particular device they used to send it, surely?
When someone calls you from their home landland, is it necessary to know whether they're calling you from the phone in the kitchen, or the one in the bedroom? -
How do u get the company name to come up when someone calls you?
I've recently got the iPhone and have many of my work contacts in with first name only and then company name. All that displays when a call comes in is their first name and not the company name which is really frustrating... Does anyone know an app or setting to display company name when a call comes in? Cheers
Third-party apps can't affect things like that, so you'd need to send a feature request to Apple:
http://apple.com/feedback
on the Mac, in Address Book, there is a "Company" box I can check, and so I do have some company names showing up as the key info in contacts and on the call screen. But mostly I don't also have personal names for those numbers, so I don't know if even that works as you want--I suspect it would not show the personal name in such a case. And I can't find any equivalent of that box in the iPhone Contacts. -
WIll you lose photos when it ask you to upgrade your library?
Im updating my MBP to Mountain Lion and am now updating my iPhoto to iPhoto '11 and when doing so it ask me to update my photo library. Will doing this have the possibility of losing all my photos?
Again
Yes
Make a copy of your iPhoto library prior to upgrading [the library in this case ]
And it sounds like you do not regularly backup. If you do not sooner or later you will lose everything. All of your files including your photos. Seriously you should purchase an external ard drive at least 2 1/2 times as large as your main drive and start running Time Machine

What do you say to people when they ask you about ...
Dear all,
People are naturally curious about your new N97 smart phone, they always ask the question 'how is the new phone?' and I I'm interested in how you answer them?.
How would you answer to:
A friend
A close relative or GF / BF
A business college
Bearing in mind that these people will come back to you if they buy based on you advise, how do you answer?

I thought my gf was going to throw her 3GS out the window this morning, she was getting so annoyed with the truly awful texting interface .. and she works for Apple .. with iPhones
Having said that, you guys have really put me off getting an N97. Guess I sort of expected some of the usual N-Series teething problems but it sounds like they're getting worse instead of better!
A lens cover that damages the lens?! What's next? A bullet proof vest that shoots the wearer?
Ah well .. guess I'll stick with my N95 8GB for the time being .. -

I updated my phone yesterday to the new ios 7.1 and now when ppl call the picture is smaller. Is there a way to make it bigger where it takes up the whole screen again?
If your iPod Touch is a first generation, then yes, iOS 3.1.3 is the highest you can go with it. Use this article to help you determine what generation iPod Touch you have.

Otherwise, you may need to update your iTunes to a later version. However, in order to update, your computer must meet the minimum requirements to upgrade to the newer version.

This is a new phone we just got from insurance replacement. It did work but now only works on speaker phone.
Hi LuckyPhillips,
That's not good! We want all parts of your device to work properly. Has there been any liquid or physical damage to the new phone? Have you tried powering the device off/on? Are you using a headset with the device?
Thanks,

I have no idea how to do this and i dont even know if the iphone can do this but i kinda want to know about it. thanks!
iPhones do not do this with the core applications provided by Apple.
Maybe there is some third party that sells an app to do this, but I don't know of such a product. -
Missing contact names when someone rings me
Hi
When any of my contacts ring me only their numbers are displayed with no name.
How do I fix this please
TerriGo to App World and down load Backup Pro (paid) or InTouch Contacts (free). I prefer the paid version.
Backup ONLY your contacts to media card or the cloud like Box.com or dropbox.
Then, you will wipe and remove all your contacts off this device by opening your main Settings (swipe down on the homescreen from the top black bexel to Settings.
Tap Accounts.
Lower right tap the three dots overflow menu icon.
Tap Clear Local Contacts.
After that is completed, Do a simple reboot on the BlackBerry in this manner: With the BlackBerry device POWERED ON, remove the battery for a minute, and then reinsert the battery to reboot.
Now, restore your contacts from your previous backup as instructed above.
Once the contacts have been restored, do yet another reboot as above.
Give it 10-15 minutes after reboot to allow data to sync, etc., and test your contacts again when someone calls you.

2. Please resolve your thread by marking the post "Solution?" which solved it for you!
3. Install free BlackBerry Protect today for backups of contacts and data.

Is there any way to turn off the iCal feature whereby when someone emails you a meeting date/time and it automatically appears on your calendar? Once there they can't even be edited or deleted.
Greetings,
What version of the Mac OS are you running (Apple > About this Mac)?
You should be able to delete events in iCal as long as they are not from a "Subscription" calendar. Subscriptions show up on the left hand side of iCal under the "Subscription" category if you have any.
You can tell iCal to not check your mail program for invites by going and unchecking the box found in iCal > Preferences > Advanced > "Automatically retrieve..."
Hope that helps! -
Siri says "I'm not permitted to do that for you." When I ask her to call someone
When I ask Siri to call someone she says "I'm not permitted to do that for you." Hard reboot doesn't help and I can't locate any settings that might affect this. Any ideas?
If you have update to the NEW iOS6 and the FaceTime feature is switched "OFF" Siri will NOT make external calls and will say " I'm not permitted to do that" So all you have to do is switch the FaceTime feature "ON" and leave it like that for you to be able to give a voice command to it perform the task of making calls.
GoTo: Settings > General > Restrictions > Flip FaceTime to “ON/OFF -
In the commercials for the iphone, when someone calls, the phone defaults to the wallpaper (in the commercials its most often the photo of earth) and the photo of the person is a small square in the upper right corner. When people call me, the photo I've chosen for them takes up the whole screen.
How do I make my phone look like the phone in the commercial?!
PS, I understand this question is pretty hilarious and non at all an important one.

To make Subject more descriptiveNot silly at all, many have asked.
In general, the answer is....
When you sync contacts from your comptuter, if you are using a Mac or Outlook 2003 (I think) or higher, then in your computer's address book, you can assign an image. Your computer makes (saves) a thumbnail of that contact with your contact data. When you sync, that thumbnail comes over to the phone.
When you assign a picture via the iPhone to a contact, it stores a full screen version of it instead of a thumbnail.
So when a person calls, if the image was from a sync with a picture that was assigned from the computer you will see what you saw in commercials. If the image was assigned from the iPhone directly, then you get the full screen view when they call. -
How do I go back a step in numbers when making a mistake - it seems to save without asking
Imac user
Hi Ger,
it seems to save without asking
Adding to the advice from T2YUKI, try this setting in System Preferences > General > Ask to keep changes when closing documents > tick that box.
Save, Save, Save as you work (if you are happy with your changes).
If you make too many mistakes, close the document and Numbers (or any app) will ask you if you want to Save the changes (since your last Save).
Click on 'Don't Save'.
Reopen from Menu > Open Recent to get back to your last satisfactory version.
Regards,
Ian.

How do you get a certain ringtone when someone is calling you?
I wanted to know how to get a certain ringtone when someone calls me, not the Verizon music that is on there now
Please explain.
You want the person who calls you to hear the ringtone? Ask Verizon if they offer this.
You want to hear the ringtone? You can create your own ringtones. Google will find many way to do this. You can also buy them from the ringtones section of the itunes store on your iphone.
