Does my phone need to be on to connect it to a com...

For some reason, when I put my memory card in an SD reader, the computer can't detect it.
My phone can't turn on at the moment, so I want to ask, is it possible for the computer to recognise the memory card without the phone being on?
If not, why isn't my memory card being detected?
Thanks x

HT204053 Should a family share an apple id, or does each phone need its own apple id?

Should a family share an apple id, or does each phone need its own apple id?

Hello coachscott,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
For more information on this, take a look at:
Frequently asked questions about Apple ID

Can I share my Apple ID with someone else?
You shouldn't share your Apple ID account information with other people. Each person should have their own Apple ID.
Best of luck,
Mario

HT1386 When an iPhone is plugged into the wall outlet and is synced with iTunes, does the phone need to be ejected on iTunes like it would be if connected to the computer, or is it just fine to disconnect from the wall?

I am wondering if I need to eject my iPhone from iTunes or if it is fine to unplug the phone without ejecting.

If it's connected to your computer and synced with iTunes you should eject it. If it's only plugged into a wall outlet and not your computer, just unplug it (since there's nothing to eject it from).

Does the phone need returning? (2 issues)

My wife's phone (Z3C) is only a few weeks old, the cover over the USB port will not stay closed, it's like it doesn't fit (she uses a mag charger all the time so never opens this herself), I cannot get it to close properly and it just comes open, meaning it's not dust or waterproof. Also, the gyroscope doesn't seem to work, if she turns the phone landscap/portrait, 50% of the time it doesn't work unless you shake the phone quite hard (it then continues to work OK for a short time), we have tried a factory reset. Does it need to be returned to Sony? (bought through a 3rd party on Amazon)

I would recommend that you contact your local Xperia support to sort things out here. See my signature for contact info.

Does my phone need to be plugged into the computer in order for me to sign into my iTunes account and pay what I owe?

I owe iTunes $8 because of my ex husband, and at the moment my laptop is in the shop. So I have to have my phone plugged into a computer to sign into iTunes and view my account info and pay my balance?

You can't use Find My Phone unless you activated it on the phone before you lost it.

Does one really need 3G if they already have a cell phone

Does one really need an iPad with 3G if they allready have a cell phone.

It depends on the situation. For some people, they may either not need the iPad to connect to the Internet when away from WIFi, or have an Internet-capable smartphone and can tether the iPad to the phone to use the data connection and don't mind carrying both. For others, that's either not possible or not practical, or they wish to have the GPS only available in the 3G iPad, not the WiFi-only iPad.
If you're asking whether you need 3G in an iPad, we can't guess without having more information about your needs.

My iphone 3gs says I need to restore my phone with itunes. when i connect the phone it says i need to unlock the phone which i cannont due because of the caution saying i need to restore. does anyone have any idea how to fix this problem

My iphone 3gs says I need to restore my phone with itunes. when i connect the phone it says i need to unlock the phone which i cannont due because of the caution on the phone. How do i fix this?

Hold down the power button and home button at the same time until the phone powers on, shuts back off, powers on again and continue to hold it until it shows the itunes logo to plug in to itunes. This should allow you to restore without unlocking it.

Newbie needs help - doing a phone book - tips needed

Guys/Gals
Thanks for taking the time to read me.
I am a graphic designer, been working daily on Illustrator /Photoshop for years, I have InDesign CS3 installed on my computer (PC) and never worked on it, until today. I have a project of doing a phone book for a local organization.
There will be ads, and names/addresses and phone numbers (just like a yellow page book).
The names/phone numbers have been given to me in an Excel document. With over 3000 lines, 5 columns (name, address, street name, postal code and tel number).
MY QUESTIONS:
1- How do I put the Excel document inside InDesign? I want all pages to follow. If by any chance I add a name, I want the whole document to slide down one line..Or if I increase/decrease the font, I want the number of page to readjust automatically...you follow me?
As I said, I am a newbie in this program, so please give me the step by step on how to do this.
There will be ads and tabs added through the contents, and I do not want this to become a nightmare...
2- With past experience you may have had on similar projects, any other tips that I should think about before starting?How do I create an automatic page layout (numbers on the bottom, line over, etc)?
Thanks for all your help
Jack

2- With past experience you may have had on similar projects, any other tips that I should think about before starting?How do I create an automatic page layout (numbers on the bottom, line over, etc)?
Page numbers are comparatively easy; check out the sections in the help file about page numbering and master pages.
"Automatic page layout" is not really what ID does, so you're asking a very complicated question. "Line over" is called a "rule" in ID, and there's a few places where you could set that up. However, the best place is in the Paragraph Styles menu. You should get to know this menu very well before you even think about starting work.
This is not something that can be easily described in a step-by-step programmatic fashion; or, rather, it can, but you don't yet have the vocabulary to implement those steps. So, if I tried to describe the step-by-step instructions for using smart reflow (another help entry you should read, as that will answer 30% of your questions about having additional pages added on the fly), and you followed them to the letter, you'd still find yourself back here asking questions. Or perhaps accidentally munging your document according to a forum regular's instructions, simply because the forum-ites can't easily look over your shoulder as you work. However, if you already have a background in text manipulation in Illustrator, you'll be able to pop over the steepest part of the initial learning curve with comparatively little effort.
So...
If by any chane I add a name, I want the whole document to slide down one line..Or if I increase/decrease the font, I want the number of page to readjust automatically...you follow me?
As I said, I am a newbie in this program, so please give me the step by step on how to do this.
I'm pretty sure that Smart Reflow will handle this for you, but I've always found it to interfere with my working style, so I avoid it. I typically make whatever changes I want to the text, and then quickly go to the end of the document to see if I have text overflow. If I do, it's a very small number of keystrokes & clicks to add new pages, apply master pages to 'em, flow in new text, and so on.
There will be ads and tabs added through the contents, and I do not want this to become a nightmare...
Some more useful terms with which to search the help file: anchored objects, text wrap. As you can see, most of us responding to your post are advising that you study some before you start building your document. If you have significant Illustrator/Photoshop experience, you're not going to be completely lost. However, ID's text manipulation tools dwarf those of Illustrator, so you may be in for a bit of an unpleasant awakening if you expect ID to handle text with the automagical interference that you'd find in Word or Powerpoint or Publisher.

Does my iPhone need virus protection?

I was just talking w/a friend & she was telling me how she put her home computer's virus protection onto her phone. Idk why, but I've never thought about a smartphone needing virus protection. Does my iPhone need virus protection software installed? If so, which ones are the best??

There is no virus protection software for iPhone, as there are no viruses to protect you against.
Plus, your friend can not have put her home computer's virus protection onto her phone - it couldn't be installed, as phone's use different operating systems to home computers and cannot run the same software.

Why does my iphone need wifi to update

Why does my iphone need wifi to download and install new software update!?
While other iphones can do that with their cellular internet

This is your phone's operating temp range:
Operating ambient temperature: 32° to 95° F (0° to 35° C)
You exceed that range & you'll get that warning...you do nothing, & your phone will shut down to prevent damage. Easy to exceed that range while your phone is navigating & exposed to sun or another heat source.
It is what it is.

If you want to use the 3G cellular data service - you need a sim card. If you just plan on using WiFi, then it doesn't matter.
The 3G cellular service allows you to connect the iPad to the internet in areas where WiFi is not available. You do not have to install the sim card in order to use the iPad as long as you just use WiFi. You can always purchase the service later if you don't want it right now.

Does my phone have to be connected to the internet for the find my iphone app to work?

it claims on the apple website that you can see a satellite map and everything from your computer just as if you were using another iphone to try and find your own phone through the find my iphone app,i signed into icloud through my computer but it says it cant find my phone because its offline,im 98% sure the find my iphone app is activated on my phone right now,so does that mean my phone has to actually be connected to internet to be found because that would be stupid..

Yes, The phone needs an active data connection, either through WiFi or Cellular data.

Hey there! So I plugged in my ipod to my computer and it didn't show up where it normally does. I need to update my song list. How can I make it appear? It doesn't come up in Iphoto. A few days ago my sispluggeditintoanothercomputerbutidon'tknowwhatshedid

A few days ago my sis plugged it into another computer but I don't know if she synched it to the other computer, and frankly, she won't remember. I have tried updating itunes, charging the ipod, restarting the ipod/computer, and the rest of what the apple site said to do. Ps I have the latest ipod touch
I need help stat! Please help!

I'd say your sister messed up and your iPod is toasted.
Think about it... She plugged it in to another computer, she doesn't remember what she did (yeah, right), and now your iPod is not being recognized by your computer...
Also take into consideration how old is your sister, and how much does she know about electronics?

How can I listen to music from iphone 4s via apple tv whilst doing a phone call at the same time?

How can I listen to music from iphone 4s via apple tv while doing a phone call at the same time?
When I take a call on the iphone, iphone stops streaming the music to apple tv until I finished the call.
thx!
Claus
PS: did ask the same question to apple hotline in germany. Answer: we don´t know... funny

Welcome to the Apple Community.
As far as I know you can't, which sort of makes sense, it seems logical to pause whatever you are doing while you take a phone call, which after all is the primary function of a phone.

Hi. My husband and I have always shared the same iTunes account. Since installing iCloud, all our contacts and calenders have merged on our iPhone 4, which we do not want. How do I rectify this? Does my husband need to set up his own apple ID?

Hi. My husband and I have always shared the same iTunes account. Since installing iCloud, all our contacts and calenders have merged on our iPhone 4, which we do not want. How do I rectify this? Does my husband need to set up his own apple ID? If so, where do I need to change his email address info, so that his calender and contacts remain his? Thank you

You can continue to use the current AppleID for iTunes, but your husband can create a new AppleID to use to create a new iCloud account that will be his own and not overlap with yours. If you do not have another email address to use for an AppleID, just get a free Gmail account and use that.
You can have as many AppleIDs as you want (or at least, as many as you have email addresses for). You can use a separate AppleID for the store, another for iCloud, and even another for iMessage if you wish.
You will want to keep the current one as the shared one for the store as all your previous purchases are permanently tied to it, and thus you need that AppleID to update or redownload your current purchased content.
