Does my laptop use data listening to I heart radio

does listening to I heart radio use data on my laptop?My Verizon

    kkpete That's a great question! If you are connecting your laptop to a verizon hotspot on a phone or jetpack then you are using data. How do you connect to the internet on your laptop? Do you have highspeed internet?

    Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

  • Why does "itunes accounts" use data with all settings OFF?

    Does anyone know how to keep "iTunes accounts" under system from using cellular data?
    I have already:
    1. Toggled OFF all settings in the "Use cellular data for" menu.
    2. Turned OFF all automatic downloads and any other options under iTunes/app store settings.
    3. Turned OFF Background App refresh.
    4. Turned OFF all options under iCloud sync menu.
    Right now, the only thing that keeps "iTunes accounts" from pulling cellular data is turning Cellular Data completely OFF, but I don't want to do this because I lose some messaging and voicemail functions and I need to be able to use Find My Phone. I have two identical iPhone 5c's on this account. One is running iOs 8.1.2 and the above settings control it's data usage nicely. The other phone is running iOs 8.1.3 and this one uses 50-100 mb a day even with all the above settings off and the phone almost always on wifi.
    I am aware that the phone will lose it's wifi connection when asleep, but that shouldn't be a problem if all the apps/settings are already set not to use cellular data. What am I missing. I've read a bunch of threads on this issue and they all suggest settings I already have OFF.

    My personal phone is on 8.1.2. My daughter's phone is 8.1.3.
    It is her phone that is currently having this problem, but I reported it under my account; sorry for the confusion.
    My phone has had some data problems in the past, but I have been able to control them by keeping almost all data options OFF and the overall switch ON. My usage is back to less than 50 mb per month which makes sense since my phone is almost always on wifi and I don't use data dense applications.
    Everything about my daughter's phone is the same as mine except for the 8.1.3 upgrade. She does use things like Instagram more than I do, but I have them all set to not use Cellular Data and the option to change these settings is locked. When I look at the usage on her phone, it isn't her apps that are pulling unexpected data; it's "iTunes accounts" under system services. All the options under iTunes/App Store (auto downloads, home sharing, etc.) and all the iCloud options are already OFF.

  • Why does my phone use data with cellular data turned off?

    I have problems with my iPhone 5 using data on its own. It usually happens at night, with all the apps closed and plugged in to charge (should be connected to my wifi). Recently, I started turning off my cellular data any time I'm at home out of desperation to save my data. Last night, my phone used 6MB of data with my data off, plugged in. I use My Data Manager to track, it matches up with AT&T's record of my data usage, so I'm pretty sure the app is not wrong. I have the 200MB plan, so I have to be very careful and it's incredibly frustrating to wake up and find 6MB gone when cellular data was turned off. Does anyone know what's going on?  I haven't bothered calling Apple or AT&T, I never get anywhere with either one.

    I'm not familiar with My Data Manager but from the name I would think it would tell you what app or apps have used the data and that might help narrow down the problem. If it doesn't have that information, you can go to Settings > Cellular > Use Cellular Data For and that shows usage by each app and if you click on System Services in that list it will also give details of that usage. The numbers are since you last reset the statistics (bottom of that screen). With a little time and detective work you may be able to identify the cause.
    Also, there have been many discussions on various internet forums of AT&T (and other) reporting of the time of data usage not matching the actual time of the use. The usage numbers over a number of days for example are accurate but usage reported at 2AM may actually be a summary of some types of use that happened the previous day.

  • Multitasking bar? Does this constantly use data?

    Hi,
    Unfortunetly AT&T did away with their unlimated data feature so I'm stuck with the 2gb per month plan. My question is when I leave an app in the multitask bar does this constantly use my data? I have notifications turned off and I have my mail set up for me to manually load it. It's becoming a pain to have to keep an eye on which apps are running and to not be able to shut the app completely down when I close it, instead I'm going to my MTB every 10 min. to kill apps.
    Thank you!

    I popped into the AT&T store this afternoon and confirmed that I could keep my unlimited plan and still have a family plan. Which is nice, not sure I need it but it does offer another choice.
    I've been relatively uninspired by AT&T's service in my area and researching changing to the Droid X as well. It does have a few features that are attractive like a replaceable battery, storage on a replaceable card and so on. The display on the iPhone 4 is simply amazing though and I already prefer the interface of the iPhone to the Droids, so it's probably going to be an upgrade instead of a switch of providers.
    The video conferencing on the iPhone is a nice feature but since it's required to be over wifi on each connection, the chances of both my wife and myself being on wifi at the same time unless we're in the house together are slim to none and slim left town. So, great feature, not very practical.
    I did find one thing unique today, the sales guy at AT&T had his own iPhone 4 and we did a couple of speed tests while I was there vs my 3GS. Now we were both on 3G at the time and really the speeds should have been almost identical as the processor should have nothing to do with the transmission speed over 3G but his phone blew mine away. A bit on the download but a huge amount on the upload. Kind of makes me wonder if there's been something wrong with my 3Gs that I wasn't really aware of?

  • Does location services use data

    I was wondering whether Location Services uses data and if so how much?

    No, it uses the location of the nearest wi-fi router as determined by Apple's database, which is usually, but not always, up-to-date.

  • Does photo stream use data on cellular?

    While NOT in a wifi network, will viewing photos/videos on my iPhone use cellular data (Verizon)?

    No Photo Stream does not use cellular data. If you go to Settings > iCloud > Photos, note that the Photo Stream on/off switch states: "Automatically upload new photos and send them to all of your iCloud devices when connected to Wi-Fi."
    Viewing or editing photos has no impact on Photo Stream.

  • Why does my phone use data when hooked up to wifi in the middle of the night?

    My phone and my husbands phone both get charged with data usage even though they are hooked up to a wifi in the middle of the night. It has all added up to and overage charge this month. We have  never used this much data!

    sandybenzi, that's a good observation. Have you downloaded 3rd party applications to your device? If so, applications can update periodically. You may access the Google play store application to verify if  your applications are set up for automatic update.

  • Does the Apple TV use data when watching movies or TV shows?

    Does Apple TV use data while watching movies and TV shows with iPad air or iPhone 5?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    That largely depends on the Apple TV setting at settings > airplay. The Apple TV can download the content from the internet (if available) or from you iPads storage depending on whether you have it set to play from iTunes in the cloud or not.
    Of course if you don't have the content on the iPad, it will download it from the the internet and if you do and choose not to use the iTunes in the cloud feature it may use a small amount of data confirming your authorisation to play it.

    No. As long as she's connected to WiFi, no cellular data is being used.

  • Do games like angry birds and bejeweled use data, and how do i know if they do?

    Does playing game use data? How can I tell if they do?

    I assume you have iTunes Match turned on in iTunes?
    You can create a smart playlist in iTunes that has "iCloud Status" is "Matched" or "Upload" - that will tell you what's in the cloud.

  • Email using Data

    Is the BB always connected to the internet?   Is it always using data?     my previouse phone, i had to push an email button to connect so then i could log off and i knew i wasnt using data.      Does it only use data once you push the email, browser, etc buttons?
    Thanks alot
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Techinically, yes it is. The BlackBerry does 'ping' the cell towers and network every so often to make sure it still there. However it is not constantly connected. Some third party apps are set to check every so often for updates, like the Facebook or Twitter app. Email is different, it is sent instantly when you press Send, and email is pushed to your device on a regular basis, instantly or on a routine schedule according to the type of email server you have.

  • HELP! Does anyone know a Data Recovery Expert for I-CIoud? -My calender disappeared during I-Cloud transfer of data from old I-Phone 4 to new I-Phone 5s. It was on both I-Phones then vanished. (It was evidently not syncing during back-ups on the laptop)

    HELP! Does anyone know a "Data Recovery Expert" for I-Cloud & I-Phone? - My calendar disappeared during I-Cloud transfer of data from my old I-Phone 4 to my new I-Phone 5s. It was on both I-Phones then vanished. (It was evidently not syncing during back-ups on the laptop)
    The Apple techs are looking. But they can't find it. Nor can they find a back up on my laptop, Evidently when I backed up my Iphone to computer the calendar wasn't syncing. Since I only use the calander on my phone - I never noticed.
    The Apple store rep that sold me the I-Phone 5 on Monday, was transferring my contacts and calendar thru I-Cloud (I never used I-Cloud before that moment - and always had it turned off). He successfully transferred the contacts - which are still on my phone), but the Calendar weirdly split into 6 calendars (2 of which were linked to my G-Mail which only had a few entries) (4 were linked to my MSN / Hotmail email and contained all the major events/data). I never created calendars that were separate or liked them to 2 different emails. I just typed entries into the I-Phone calendar. However, the calendar did exist on the new I-Phone for 24 hours. Something happened during transfer. When the Apple Genius Bar tech was attempting to back up my Calendar & merge the 6 calendars, everything disappeared in his hand while he was looking at it.
    I am hoping that some really good data recovery expert exists that can restore the calendar that was in both I-Phones yesterday. It is completely devastating if I can't recover it.
    Any help, or referrals, is great appreciated!!!!
    Thanks!
