Does turning off Cell Network Search effect my voice calling?

Under Location Services then System Services I have Cell Network Search turned off. I was wondering if this being off effects my voice calls in any way? 

You can find out the answer yourself.
Log into icloud.com and use the find my iphone feature and see what it says.
BTW there is no Apple in this forum, just apple device users like you and I.

  • How does turning off "Cell Network Search" affect "Find My iPhone"?

    I have turned Cell Network Search off in an effort to reduce battery drain under iOS 7.1.  Does this in any way affect Find My iPhone?
    I have Location Services on for Find My iPhone.  I turn Background App Refresh off when I'm at home and on when I'm out; I believe this doesn't affect Find My iPhone.
    I'd be interested in Apple's official description (which I wasn't able to locate) as well as any personal experiences. 
    Thanks.

  • What does the Cell Network Search do on the iPhone 4s?

    What may happen if I turn Cell Network Search off on my iPhone 4s. It's under location services scroll all the way down to system services. Will I not be able make or receive calls?

    Yes, go ahead and turn it off.  It SENDS location based information to Apple for their use (marketing, trouble shooting, who knows all or what).  Basically it records the tower ID of the towers within range of your phone as you move around throught the day and sends that back to Apple.  Since the location of the towers is known, they then get information about where people are most using iPhones during the day, what the loads in different areas are, and other stuff that lets them learn about how and where iPhones are being used.
    It has NOTHING to do with how your iPhone actually functions normally, so you can disable all of the services listed there ifyou wish.
    Compass calibration MAY be useful in some cases - I know when I was trying Waze, it often could not get a reliable position fix until I re-enabled compass calibration.  I don't know why that was, as all I know about compass calibration is it supposedly allows for a more accurate correction between geographic and magnetic north.  But at least with Waze, it clearly assisted Waze in getting and holding a location fix when driving, in areas and at times when without it on, Waze was unable to track my movement, or sometimes even get a fix at all.
    Setting time zone - IF you were traveling across time zones, and were out of range of a cell tower (so no cell signal to correct your clock) or your clock failed to change correctly once you had cell signal again, then turning this on may help correct the clock.  Note that from posts here, usually you just need turn it on, let the clock correct itself, and then can turn it off and the clock will be fine (it just helps when you've shifted multiple time zones with no cell signal for the phone to correct itself by during the journey).
    The other four in that list, I have never enabled as you just don't need them for anything, and they do use power every time they use location services and everytime they send data.

  • Selecting photo then clicking "Fit" does NOT turn off the Ken Burns effect.

    Trying to wean from iMovieHD.  I'm having trouble mastering what seems to be more limited Ken Burns effect functionality in iMovie11.   I don't seem to have the range, say, left-to-right, as I did in either iPhoto or in iMovie HD.
    So, I figured for now I'd turn off the Ken Burns effect on all the stills in this project.  I've tried selecting one photo, getting into the Fit/Crop/KB effect viewer, then clicking Fit, then Done.  But the photo keeps the KB effect that had been applied to it.
    I tried changing all photos in Preferences and that didn't change anything either. 
    Hopefully I'm just missing something?  Thanks for any help, everybody...

    Nevermind.  Got it.  As I'd hoped, user error.

  • Group Policy to disable ability to turn off wireless networking in Windows 8.1 Update

    I am wanting to disable the ability to turn off wireless networking in our Windows 8.1 Update clients using Group Policy. We are a school that runs classroom management software enabling the teachers to view what the students have on their screens.
    Students just switch off their wireless to avoid detection. I have searched the Group Policy listings and can't find anything.
    Thanks.

    Hi  GeoffAUS,
    I can’t find a direct group policy to disable the users’ ability to turn off the wireless network in Windows 8.1.
    If we just disable the display of wireless connection, we will need to additionally disable the ability that disabling the driver in device manager.
    We could try the workaround to use UAC to control the wireless connection.
    Go to Computer Configuration->Windows Settings->Security Settings->Local Policy->Security Options, and set the option
    User Account Control: Behavior of the elevation prompt for standard users.
    Please make sure the computer automatically connect to Wireless.
    For more information, please refer to the following article.

  • Any way to turn off only the parallax effect while enabling the home screen/folders zoom in/out animations?

    I've just updated to iOS 7.1 and I had thought that there might be an option to turn off only the parallax effect while keeping all the home screen animations (the zooming effects) effective?? Is there a way to do that, or are the parallax effect and the animations come together under the "Reduce Motion" option?

    Now I'm enjoying the zooming effects(animations) while at the same time, extending the battery life to some extent by doing some little settings! Thanks to the valuable answer provided by Ralph (see above).
    The procedure is:
    Settings > Wallpapers and brightness > either choose a new wallpaper or tap one of your existing wallpapers > you can then turn on or off Perspective Zoom > tap Set
    (If you turn Perspective Zoom OFF, you won't be getting the parallax effect or vice versa)
    And after you complete the above steps successfully, you can say Goodbye to the useless (to me lol) and battery hungry parallax effect and enjoy the zooming (pretty amazing thing which looks good while working) at the same time!!!
    But even after doing that, you can notice some parallax effect left over in the home screen, but I think that's normal (Or maybe even a bug lol). And the best part about that new option introduced in iOS 7.1 is, you can choose where you want the parallax effect to work (I mean you can either experience parallax effect in the lock screen or in the homescreen or both) It's your wish, buyt while doing the above steps, turn "OFF" the Reduce Motion in Settings>General>Accessibility>Reduce Motion>OFF
    Try it @GetVladimir.com !!!

  • Can I turn off the Ken Burns effect from all stills at once?

    I am using iMovie 09.  I am creating a slideshow.  I want to turn off the Ken Burns effect from all stills.  Is there a way to do this in one operation?
    Mary Lou

    Yes. Select one still. Open the Rotate, Crop, Ken Burns Tool on the middle Toolbar. Set it to FIT (for letterboxing) or to CROP (for it to fill the screen, but cut off the top and bottom). This will turn off Ken Burns.
    Now select the photo you just adjusted and EDIT/COPY (or Command-C).
    Now click EDIT/SELECT ALL (or Command-A) to select all photos.
    Finally, click EDIT/PASTE ADJUSTMENTS/CROP ADJUSTMENTS to apply to all photos.

  • Turn Off Firewire Networking. You need to do this!

    10.4.3 install turns on firewire networking. If you are using a firewire interface, turning this off greatly improves performance. Go to system preferences, network. In the show menu select Network Port Configurations, and turn off "built-in firewire".
    This has vastly improved stability with my mlan firewire stuff.
    When switched on, osx constantly monitors the firewire ports for a network.

    What is "fast user switching" (and where is it found)?
    Also, will turning off FW networking affect whether or not Target Disk Mode will function?

    (I'm doing this for the recalibrating of the battery etc...)

    It would shorten it's life if you leave it on year 'round. For the amount of time to calibrate the battery won't hurt it.

  • How do you reduce/turn off keypad sound when making a phone call

    How do you reduce/turn off keypad sound when making a phone call?

    If I understand the question correctly, it is not about turning off keyboard clicks, it's about silencing the beeps made when manually keying in a  phone number. With keyboard clicks turned off, the beeps still sound when keying in a phone number. If I'm reading the iPhone User Guide correctly, it explains how to turn off keyboard clicks but not how to silence the   beeps when keying in a phone number. The only way I have found to silence the beeps is to put the phone into silent mode.

    Hi , and a warm welcome to the forums!
    Could be many things, we should start with this...
    "Try Disk Utility
    1. Insert the Mac OS X Install disc, then restart the computer while holding the C key.
    2. When your computer finishes starting up from the disc, choose Disk Utility from the Installer menu at top of the screen. (In Mac OS X 10.4 or later, you must select your language first.)
    *Important: Do not click Continue in the first screen of the Installer. If you do, you must restart from the disc again to access Disk Utility.*
    3. Click the First Aid tab.
    4. Select your Mac OS X volume.
    5. Click Repair Disk, (not Repair Permissions). Disk Utility checks and repairs the disk."
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214
    Then try a Safe Boot, (holding Shift key down at bootup), run Disk Utility in Applications>Utilities, then highlight your drive, click on Repair Permissions, reboot when it completes.
    (Safe boot may stay on the gray radian for a long time, let it go, it's trying to repair the Hard Drive.)
    If perchance you can't find your install Disc, at least try it from the Safe Boot part onward.
    If 10.7.0 or later...
    Bootup holding CMD+r, or the Option/alt key to boot from the Restore partition & use Disk Utility from there to Repair the Disk, then Repair Permissions.
    And sorry to report that OSX is more Widows like than ever, but….
    If that doesn't help Reinstall the OS.

  • In a fixed-layout epub is there a way to turn off the faux spine effect for just one pair of pages?

    I'm formatting a graphic novel as a fixed-layout epub.  Because the pages are generated in Manga Studio with an intended print target, it by far makes the most sense to just use a single, large image for each page.  I'm coding the .opf, .xhtml, and .css files by hand, and I more or less understand everything I'm doing.
    Because the pages are often full bleed, I actually want the faux book chrome afforded by having <meta property="ibooks:binding">true</meta>.  The shadow effect in the gutter gives a nice deliniation between the pages without me having to do anything additional with the formatting.
    However... a handful of pages in the book are two-page spreads.  These look good enough with the shadow spine in the middle, but they would obviously look better without it.  What I'd like to do is identify these particular page pairs as two-page spreads and turn the binding chrome off for just that page pair.  I could of course "fake it" by adding a shadow to the pages themselves (except the spreads) and turning off the binding chrome on the entire book, but it'd be a lot easier to be able to do it in software.
    Apple's formatting guide mentioned nothing of the sort, and searching for a while hasn't turned up anything (not even anyone asking the same question so far as I can tell).  I'm guessing this isn't possible, but it never hurts to ask.  Anybody know of a way to do this?

    Just found this... Sorry to waste the post...

  • Does turning off wireless feature inactivate the firewall?

    My goal is to insert a hardware firewall between my modem and PPC Mac computer, and accordingly, plan to use the Apple Airport Extreme (AE) base station router for this purpose.  Since I don't really need the wireless feature at this time, I plan to turn off Wi-fi on AE.  Will doing so also turn off or diminish the WPA/WPA2 & WEP security firewall features of AE, or will they still work as expected with my wired internet connection?

    Wireless security is not really referred to as a "firewall" in the strict sense of the word. Wireless security, or encryption, is used on your "local" network to prevent unauthorized computers from connecting to your local network.
    A firewall is special software that protects all devices on your local network from devices on the Internet.  The AirPort Extreme uses a very effective NAT firewall.
    If you have the AirPort Extreme connected to a simple modem, the NAT firewall is automatically enabled.
