Disable the remote lock code

I downloaded iOS5 and like any new toy, I wanted to play to see how it all worked. I went to Find iPhone on our iPad and did a remote search. It asked for a remote passcode, but now everytime my phone goes to sleep, I must use the passcode to get back into it. Please tell me there is a way to disable this!! I need to be able to get my calls immediately, being I work in a school and need to limit the distractions. (I get fumbly when unexpected calls come in! )
Thank You
Mama Z

As I hit send my daughter stumbled in and asked what I was doing. When I explained, told me that the unlock setting was on the phone.
Go to settings, general and lo and behold, use the passcode lock to turn it on or off.
And who says kids aren't good for anything?

HT201365 help me disable the activation lock code on iOS7

Is there any way to disable the activation lock code on iOS7? I don't want to have to type in a code every time I use my phone! There's nothing out there on the web and I fear it's built in to the new security features. If so, I'll change back to the old 6. Thanks.

duh. it's still the same! thank you for responding!!!

How do I disable the remote on my MacBook Pro, every time I use my remote for my Apple TV iTunes starts playing.

System Preferences --> Security & Privacy (click on lock in lower left corner and enter security info to make changes --> this will activate the "Advanced" button in the lower right corner --> click on it) --> Advanced --> Check the bottom box: "Disable remote control infrared receiver" --> Joy!

TS4006 I set the remote lock then I recovered my ipad .. how do I unlock it

I was sure I lost my ipad2 and other stuff so I did the remote lock to keep private data private. The ipad2 was recovered with everything in the case inact. Wow never expected such honesty, rewarded finder. Now how do I undo the remote lock or will I have a chance to enter the 4 digit code and have evrythin back again. Find my iphone (ipad/mac) sure made some bad thoughts less troubling. If I can't undo it is ok also as I can re-nstall everything or just start fresh and let my daughter have the Ipad2.... reason to get new ipad. Thanks for looking and helping out.

Duh... you just enter in the four digit code that you set when you remote locked.... that was too easy but sure a nice easy solution ... sorry for the "dumb" bunny question , but it is nice knowing if I hadn't solved my own question you all would have solved it for me thanks.

Remote lock code forgotten

How can I recover a remote lock code?
My gmail account was hacked and they used iCloud to wipe my new MacBook pro.

Hmm, no one else brave enough to touch this one it seems..... Ok i'll push further.
Av8tor, if you are indeed an innocent victim in all of this, I suggest that you take the computer to an AASP. After all, this is what you are SUPPOSED to know ahead of time before you allow your device to become locked
Only they are supposed to.... ahem... handle the situation after the lock.

My iPhone 4s was stolen this weekend and I did the Remote Lock. What exactly does that do? Also, if i do the Remote Wipe will that erase all of my data and impede anyone from ever using the phone?

The remote lock locks the iphone with a passcode that you set. By remote wiping the device it will simply restore it and clear it of all its data, but by doing this it will prevent you tracking it and communicating with it (e.g. remote locking it) in the future

Disable the Remote Management Service?

I know this is "Why would anyone want to do this" question but we are having conflicting issues in one of our labs between NetSupport and Zenworks when trying to run Adobe Flash. NetSupport is a tool that quite a few of our lab teachers use, it gives them the ability to see all of there students screens, take control of them, and a few other features, all from a console that runs on the teacher machine.
The problem comes in when running Flash if the student tries to create a text box and scroll inside of it then the computer crashes. We contacted NetSupport for help with this and they had us run a reporting tool that looked at the hardware setup and driver information. Then they setup a test machine and tried to replicate the problem and they were not able to. However they tech did note that in the scan of the machine there could be a conflicting issue between NetSupports Mirror Driver and DemoForge TightVNC Mirror Driver. I assumed the latter was part of Zenworks remote management. So we stopped the remote management service on a machine and tried to replicate the problem. We did not encounter the problem so we turned the remote management service back on and sure enough as soon as we tried to replicate the problem again the machine crashed.
Now when we tried to disable the remote management service in the services menu but it will not stay disable as soon as the machine restarts the remote management service is running and its set to automatic again.
Is there anyway to disable (preferable) or remove just the remote management piece with out removing the rest of the client from the machines?
Thanks,
Mike

You can configure this in the ZCC for which components you want
installed. You can deselect Remote Management.
Note: You can also disable or remove the Mirror Driver from the Devices
Control Panel under Display Drivers and it will not come back.

Is it ever ok to entirely disable the remote Title button?

I am considering disabling the remote Title button in all menus, tracks, and stories in a DVD that has a main menu and one chapter menu. Doing so seems to solve all the navigation problems I was having due to the inconsistent behavior of DVD players, but I wonder whether viewers would find it weird that whenever they press the Title button they encountered the message "Operation prohibited by disk at this time" or the red-circle-with-a-slash symbol: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/e/e9/SlashCircle.svg/120px-S lashCircle.svg.png
What do you think? Is it ok to entirely disable the remote Title button?
Thanks,
John Link
P.S. Here is a full description of the DVD structure:
Main menu with four buttons:
1) Play track 1 (Preview)
2) Play track 2 with audio stream 1 (Full movie with regular soundtrack)
3) Play story in track 2 with audio stream 2 (Full movie with director's commentary soundtrack)
4) Go to chapter menu
Chapter menu with a button for each chapter in track 2 and a button to return to the main menu
Disable remote Title button in both menus, both tracks, and the story
Set remote Return button in main menu to go to chapter menu
Set remote Return button in chapter menu to go to main menu

ll, personally I wouldn't find it weird. I never use the title button on my DVD player remote control anyway. Don't even know what it does, TBH!
I wonder whether you would change your opinion if you were to find out what the remote Title button does.

Disable the remote control, menu.

Maybe a dumb question but I can't seem to find a way to disable the menu that comes up from the remote control. It seems to jump up once in a while and I never use it and would just like to disable it.
Thanks

Yes, I didn't realize that's what it's called.
I use an application called synergy http://synergy2.sourceforge.net/ to share the mouse and keyboard with a windose machine, a linux box and this mac. It is a really nice way to stay somewhat OS agnostic, it also shares the clipboard with the various machines. I really like the app. However, this nagging problem happens occasionally where Front Row will just randomly pop up and I can't get back out of it. So all I can do is reboot. I'm not sure what causes it, although I'm fairly sure it has something to do with synergy. I did not know there was an easy way to disable the remote, so I've done that now and maybe it will make a difference. But is there a way to just completely disable, uninstall Front Row?
Thanks

I have an Acer Aspire 7741. I want to disable the CAPS LOCK ICON. It interferes with my work.

I have an Acer Aspire 7741. I want to disable the CAPS LOCK ICON because it interferes with my work. Microsoft states this is a utility that is on the computer, not something that is controlled by Windows software. Help, please. This is the only computer I use that does this and it's quite annoying at times.

it must already be installed on your system, normally it enables the Fn+F functions and over things like Caps lock. http://global-download.acer.com/GDFiles/Application/LaunchManager/LaunchManager_Dritek_4.0.5_W7x86W7x64_A.zip?acerid=634061190269930459&Step1=NOTEBOOK&Step2=ASPIRE&Step3=ASPIRE%207741&OS=ALL&LC=en&BC=ACER&SC=PA_6

I lost my phone 6 weeks ago, today I got an email saying "iPhone has been locked." does this mean someone has tried to power up my device. I had put the remote lock on the phone when I lost it. Today I sent 2 messages to the phone asking to call my phone

Yes, this would seem the most likely reason to me.

W520 & Windows 8 - Is it possible to disable the Caps Lock Key?

Hello All:
I have a W520 running the 64 bit Window 8 Pro OS.
Does anyone know if it is possible to disable the CAPS LOCK key on the ThinkPad keyboard? I keep hitting this key by mistake (fat fingers, I guess) when using the laptop keyboard, and it is a PITA.
When I have the W520 docked and I am using an external (Microsoft hardware) keyboard, I can disable the CAPS LOCK key on the external keyboard using Microsoft's keyboard control panel application. But, this application doesn't appear to support disabling the CAPS LOCK key on the keyboard embedded in the W520.
All suggestions will be gratefully received.
Michael
W520 (4270 CTO), which replaced a W500 (4062-27U), which replaced a T42P, which replaced an A21P...

You cant technically disable it, BUT you can go to settings>General>Auto Lock - Never
The screen will never dim and you wont have to slide to unlock - but keep in mind this will drain the battery much faster since the back light is constantly on.
