Hi ! i want to know is there anyway to set a password on the power button in order to being locate when the ios device is stolen ?
I lost an iphone 2 mounth ago and i could not track my iphone because the thief had shut down my iphone ! Since that time i was thinking about some tweaks in iphone that we can set our devices on in order to do a nice trick on thieves.
The iphone pretend to be shut down and leave the screen on when there is attemp to shut down by a thief (so the iphone is on, but the screen is off ) ! therefor theif thinks the device is off, meanwhile the celluar date and find my iphone(icloud) will be switched on if they are switched off !
So it is much easier for people to locate their ios device and i think this is the best way for getting back the stolen ios devices !!!!
And how is the phone supposed to know if it's you or a thief pressing the Sleep/Wake Button and sliding to power off?
You want a passcode required to power off the device? So... what if you forget your password? What then?

I am running a web-based CMS that cycles through a number of pages, each for different times ( ranging from 40 seconds to 2 minutes )and is displayed in a number of shops. Every now and then our internet drops, and the page errors with connection failed. I’m wondering if there is anyway to auto reload the page as soon as the error connection failed is showing. auto-reload addon is not an option as this will interrupt the sequence.
The following error was encountered:<br />

I have flash builder 4.5 premium and want to know if there is an extension for php
I have flash builder 4.5 premium and want to know if there is an extension / plugin to add the php functions or do I have to buy the Flash Builder 4.5 premium for php version?
I was wanting to add the PHP functions to my current Flash Builder premium 4.5
I would like to know how to add this if it can be done with my version of Flash Builder 4.5 Premium.
Thanks
MauriceNo I have the Flash Builder 4.5 for PHP version and I am happy to pay for what ever help i need. but I am looking for a component to emable me to build a specific project.
The project I want to build is a schedule. I looked at an IBM scheduler http://visunetdemos.demos.ibm.com/ganttdemos/humanresources/humanresources.html
This IMB Scheduler does everything i am looking for but is way over kill. My Project is much simpler. So paying $1000 for this would be excessive. -
Anyway to set an event for the fifth Monday of the month?
I have an event that happens rarely. Is there anyway to set an event for the fifth Monday of the month?
Hi Kevin,
This should be similar to behaviour in my response to this thread, but iCal seems a bit off on this one. If you attempt to set an event on the 5th Monday iCal adds events to the first Monday on the month after if the month only has four weeks. I'd say this is a bug in iCal.
Try the script below which should add an event to the 5th Monday only to see what I mean:
(Copy blue text into Script Editor (Applications > Applescript > Script Editor) , press Run and follow prompts.)
tell application "iCal"
set myCal to first calendar whose title is (item 1 of (choose from list (title of (every calendar) as list) with prompt "Choose calendar"))
set myName to text returned of (display dialog "What is the event's name?" default answer "5th Monday of month?")
set myStart to my date "Monday, January 30, 2006 10:00:00"
set myEnd to myStart + 1 * hours
make new event at the end of events of myCal with properties {summary:myName, start date:myStart, end date:myEnd, recurrence:"FREQ=MONTHLY;BYDAY=5MO"}
end tell
Best wishes

Only if you had ALREADY set up the FindMyiPhone feature, wifi is on and some other conditions are met. Report it to the police and change the passwords for all accounts used on the iPod. Also see:

I have used the "description" spot in iPhoto for in-depth additional information for photos of my ancestors. Now I am wanting to know if there is a way to print the photos along with the descriptions; either photo by photo, or maybe more than one per page, or possibly in some sort of booklet format. Thank you very much.
You can make a Book and have a photo on one side and your text description on the other.

Although I have been using Google Maps App in India for a while now (without any issues) but I still want to know if there are any plans for launching Turn by Turn Navigation under the OOTB Map App for iOS?
It has been quite a while since Apple came up with Map App of their own and should be releasing improved maps with more capabilities in India.
Cheers!
AbhishekNo one here can answer your question, as there is no one from Apple here, & no one here represents Apple or speaks for Apple.

I have an otterbox case for my iphone 4s and want to know if there's a docking unit where i can sit my phone in with the case still on and with a usb connection it'sll charge and transfer data (music, video, etc, to my stereo unit (alpine 910 gps)
Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$

My Iphone 4 has a cracked screen and has made it impossible for me to unlock my pin. I an giving the phone to a friend but want to know if there is a way I can ensure all my data is wiped off it before I do. Can anyone help? I have upgraded to a iPhone 5 so Im not sure if the old one would have automatically wiped the old phone. I have lots of emails and messages I wouldnt want peo
Have you synced this phone, with iTunes, while the passcode was enabled? If so, plug it in, iTunes running, & hit the Restore button on the Summary Pane. This will also erase the phone.
However, if you have not synced, while the passcode was enabled, you will not be able to do this without first enereting the passcode. If that's the case, try recovery mode:

I have a lot of charges on my account. It was a minor that did it. Was wanting to know if there is a way I can get it taken off?

Open Directory Active Directory users want to know Is there a method?
Help
Open Directory Active Directory users want to know Is there a method?
Or can I make the Active Directory users to share on the Open Directory.
My goal is to use our school Mac computers with SSOIf I understand your question correctly, using Active Directory with OSX, there are a few ways this can be accomplished.
One way is by joining each Mac directly to Active Directory. This doesn't take advantage of the additional managed preference available to OSX, but does allow AD users to authenticate on OSX. On each machine, one would open System Preferences > Accounts > Login Options > Click Join next to Network Account Server. Follow the prompts and provide the domain name of your Active Directory deployment to join the system.
Another method is to follow the steps above, but only after extending the Active Directory Schema to support the OSX-specific managed preferences. It's a mostly harmless operation and means that you'll have a single administration interface for both OSX and Windows systems. The AD Schema information is available from Apple Support, but may also be readily available on the Internet.
Because our Windows team preferred to not change our AD schema any more than we already had, we used a different method. We created an Open Directory Master on one of our OSX servers, then we joined it as a member server to Active Directory. Next, we join all of our OSX workstations and laptops as members to the Open Directory domain instead of to Active Directory. This way, SSO still works. New user accounts are added to Active Directory and all managed preferences for OSX can be managed through the native OSX Workgroup Manager tool.
I think there are some instructions in the User Management PDF (Mac OS X Server, User Management, Version 10.6 Snow Leopard) or in the Advanced Server Admin PDF (Mac OS X Server, Advanced Server Administration, Version 10.6 Snow Leopard) but not completely certain. This page might have the docs. -
