Edit Home Screen ..... Dismiss button is stuck on my screen

I just upgraded my 3G phone to 2.1.
Since I have upgraded, I have not been able to use my phone at all. I have a window displayed on my phone.
Edit Home Screen
To rearrange icons, touch and hold any icon until it starts to wiggle, then drag icons to desired locations. Drag an incon to the far right to create additional Home screens. Press the Home button when done.
Dismiss
I can not press the Dismiss button to close the window. Nothing happens when I press the Dismiss button. It doesn't look like it recognizes that I am touching the screen at all. I can't do anything with the phone until I get rid of this missage

Try a reset - press and hold the sleep/wake and home buttons for ~10 seconds, until you see the Apple logo (ignore the slide to power off prompt).

Stuck at "Edit Home Screen"

Just bought a new 3G iphone, once I got done setting it up in itunes it came up with a screen that says "Edit Home Screen" and I can't get it to go away. Any ideas?

Did you ever figure out how to solve this problem? I am now having the same problem. My iPhone is completely unusable as whenever I start up it goes to this screen, with a "dismiss" button that doesn't do anything. I have tried all of the troubleshooting tips, but nothing works.

Editing icons on home screen

(Apologies if this is in the wrong place - I'm not sure which forum is the best place for this question.)
To move or delete the icons on the home page, I thought that you had to hold down the home screen button (the only button on the face of the phone) for a few seconds, which would make all the icons get wiggly, and then either click on the tiny X to delete the icon or drag them around the page. I swear I've done it before. But as of yesterday, it doesn't work. I hold down the button and nothing happens. Any suggestions?

To edit the icons on the home screen, tap and hold on one of the icons until they start jiggling around.
to delete an icon you added to the home screen, tap the x in the corner.
Once you are done editing the icons, press the home button.
Hope this helps.

HOW TO: Edit or Change the URL in an existing "home screen" iPhone bookmark

I can create "home screen" bookmarks from web pages in the mobile Saafari on the iPhone, but in some cases we may need to create a URL for say a video link (e.g. WOWZA media server to iPhone)
e.g.
http://10.0.1.4:1935/live/mystream.sdp/playlistm.3u8
Links like these don't allow you to click the "+" symbol to create a link in safari as they immediately launch the video player - so I'm looking for a way to edit another icon/URL that was saved before.
I know you can edit Safari Bookmark URLs etc on the iPhone, but the convenience of a 'home screen' bookmark for say a live broadcast is very nice.

I am calling an existing SAP Inbound proxy which is returning a transient ack in case of Application error.
How is the ACK returned? In form of a XML message? Create a response structure which will have your Main Response Message and also fields for the ACK message.....get this message into BPM.....make a check in the BPM (using SWITCH) and check if the node containing ACK fields is existing....if yes then proceed as per the business needs.
Accordingly the proxy should be configured to populate the ack details.

Hi Kenny Fikes,
You can access Acrobat online services using this Link ( cloud.acrobat.com ) , although you might need to sign-in using your Adobe ID, before you can access those services.
Does that help? Please reply back for any further query or assistance.

Editing title bookmark on home screen icon

I added a few home screen icons that are bookmarks for Safari. I realized after seeing them on the home screen that the titles are too long and a truncated. How do I edit the titles after creating them

That is a very temporary patch to solve this surprising (and stupid) problem. The real issue is: how come bookmarks (favorites) are truncated at only 40 characters, once synchronized on my PC !? It must be iCloud that imposes that limitation.
Even worse : hundreds of Windows Explorer favorites I had saved, years before I installed iCloud, have also been truncated!! I will have to ask my technician to reload my favorites from our company backup, and then clean up iCloud's mess manually, one favorite at a time.
But, first things first : uninstall iCloud !! (unless someone knows a better solution...)

I tried to click "edit" on the home screen but a window keeps showing up saying that I have to restart my computer. But when I restart the computer the window shows again. What do I do?

Please help. ^

What home screen are you referring to?
What "edit"?
Which application and version are you using?

How to edit the buttons on iPod Touch home screen

How do you move around/delete icons on the iPod Touch home screen?

Hold one of the buttons until they all wiggle, drag around as desired (also to new home screens) and press home button to stop the madness.
This is all provided, however, that you have the 2.0 or the January Upgrade.
Hope this helps.

My Mail app sends me to home screen when I open it

Let me tell you what I have done after reading all of the threads on this forum about this issue.
• Closed the app mail and restarted it #RollEyes #duh
• Turning phone off and turning it back on
• Resetting Phone
• Removing all of the mail accounts from my mail app (using the Settings app), then re adding
• Removing all of the mail accounts from my mail app (using the settings app), then shutting down phone, then re adding
• Removing all of the mail accounts from my mail app (using the settings app), then resetting phone, then re adding
• Deleting all of my mail from the mail servers (using my computer) for the last two days, then "delete forever" all of that mail that I moved to the trash (my mail app stopped working today - so two days should cover it)
• Putting the phone in airplane mode
• Setting the phone to "data off"
I still get a mail app that "opens" then immediatly goes back to the home screen (the mail app is still "running" as I can see it when I double tap my home button to see the "running" apps)
I've been using apple products since I was 5 years old, family of electrical engineers, and I'm stumped. I love apple and the reason I've used their products is to avoid software malfunctions etc. . . I'm not gonna lie, it's gotten worse over the last few years with Apple's growing popularity. . .
Gonna need a solution as I use my mail for work on a daily basis
using iPhone 5S Champagne with latest software 7.0.4
<Personal Information Edited by Host>

Restore as new, THEN restore from the backup. It seems as if the Mail App is corrupted. Last Sunday this happened to me on my iPad (Mail app quitting, just like in your case). I restored as new, then reinstalled the backup. Luckily I had a backup (from the day before) which was backed up BEFORE the mail problem appeared.
If the above does not solve your problem, I suggest restoring as new and redownloading each app individually, and then transferring your photos from iPhoto on the Mac (or whataever photo app on Windows) and content independently.
If that does not solve your prblem, there might be a hardware problem.

Get rid of intrusive HUGE and UGLY dark bands behind HUGE icons on Home Screen

How do I get rid of the intrusive, huge and ugly dark bands behind the huge icons, and reduce the size of the icons on the Home Screen?
On my 8320 I can use pictures of my kids for wallpaper. On the 8900 they have wasted half of the beautiful screen with these huge ugly icons and dark bands - cuts right through two of my kids eyes and two of my kids mouths and below.
What were they thinking? They advertise the 8900 (and the 8520) by emphasizing a full screen picture - but when you actulally buy the phones, they have inserted these cursed screenscape hogs. Any firmware fixes yet? Or, now that Nokia has released their E71 that not only handles email as well as my BB, but also allows me to create and edit docx, should I abandon the 8900 as a lost cause and buy the E71? And, as long as we are discussing RIM's myopic short sightedness, why no 3G on this device?
Please hurry, my buyers remorse clock is ticking and I need to send this thing back to the carrier if it can't be fixed.
Thanks in advance.

Hello, to change the size (I have six icons per row not five) go to options>advanced options>accessability and change the amount on the grid. Default 6x6, then 4x4 3x3 etc., you can also change the colours. Hope I`m not barking up the wrong tree but have bbn of help! Regards Kew

How can I get to home screen from car dock menu when an app is running?

Just upgraded to the RAZR MAXX from a Droid 2 Global.
When the phone is mounted in the car dock and an app is running (Navi, Music, etc.), how can you get to the main home screen of the phone rather than the car dock menu?
Follow me......
* Phone is mounted in Car Dock.
* If there are NO apps running, pressing the BACK key from within the Car Dock Menu takes you directly to the Home screen.
However.....
* Phone is mounted in Car Dock.
* Navigation(or any app, for that matter) is running.
* Pressing MENU key takes me to Car Dock Menu.
* There's no exit option available to exit from car dock menu.
* Pressing BACK key takes you back to the app that's running, not the home screen.
* Long press of HOME key only takes you to an app list screen, not home screen.
* Only way to get to home screen is to repeatedly press the BACK button exiting out of the Car Dock Menu and cancelling all apps that are currently running.
On my Droid 2, I was able to quickly exit the Car Dock Menu simply by pressing the BACK or exit button, regardless of which or how many apps were running. They would still run in the background, showing on the status bar.
Anyone know of a work around? I couldn't find any settings to change within the Car Dock menu to change this. Stopped by three Verizon stores and they all say we have to be missing something, as they couldn't figure it out either. One rep told me it was a new "nanny" feature so that you couldn't access your apps while driving, however when I pointed out that you could access the home screen if no apps were running, he wasn't sure what to say.
Any help?

I solved my problem eventually by getting all the devices - 2 iphones, the newish pc and the older Mac on icloud.
All media, calenders and messages were lost from the iphones, except for purchased itunes that I paid another $30 to Apple to save for me and also paid Appple some more to use icloud but the good news is I did save my contacts
I opened all of my contacts and pretty much had to edit and drag them over almost individually as they weren't all in some sort of configuration that Apple liked - i.e. if an email address ended in ch or es or de it might not be accepted as a properly configured vcard.
It would be nice if Apple made it a litle easier when you have older devices and need to get them in sync with newer ones.

Help (Task/Calendar Display on home screen)

I need some guidance on how to display my tasks/calendar on my home screen. If there is a way to perform this task I would greatly appreciate it if someone can help, or if there is an application I can download. I previously had the Pearl and I became reliant on this quick view from my home screen.
