How can I stop my iPhone from starting to play music in my pocket?

Almost everytime I get my phone out of my pocket it's playing music! How do I stop it doing this it's always locked before it goes into my pocket.

It should only do that if you hold down the T key at startup.  Otherwise the PRAM battery is probably near death, or the T key needs to be cleaned so it doesn't think it is being held down.  To clean the keyboard properly, you will probably need to bring it in for service.

    How can I stop my iPhone from synching my contacts and groups lists twice....I am using iCloud but am not sure how correct this duplication.

    Go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Is this happening at the bottom in the signature section, or in the header of the mail where your email address is? If it is the signature, then go to the Signature area of the Mail settings. If this is in the header, then go to the account in question and edit your account information to include your name instead of Johnny.

  • Every time I restart my mac air some applications like calendar and Microsoft word automatically starts, how can I stop such applications from starting when ever I restart my mac

    Every time I restart my mac air some applications like calendar and Microsoft word automatically starts, how can I stop such applications from starting when ever I restart my mac?

    One thing to check:  when shutting down or restarting, there is a checkbox in the shutdown/restart dialog which asks whether you want currently open applications to open at startup.

  • How can I stop my iPhone from becoming a brick because it loses service.

    Hello,
    I have an iPhone 5, currently with iOS 8 GM, and the problem with my iPhone is after maybe 5 minutes of being locked, if you turn it on, it loses service, or drops down to 1 bar (circle) says "Searching..." Then after 30 seconds, I will get service again. It does this 9 out of 10 times I want to use my phone. But that part isn't the issue, the issue I'm having is, with iOS 8, if it loses service for a while, I get a "Activation Required" and I can't use my phone at all until I reactivate it. Not a problem if I'm around Wifi, it takes 4 seconds to activate it. BUT, I'm not always around wifi and I can't use Cellular Data to activate it. I get a "Could not reach activation servers" or something. So my question is, what can I do about this? Besides getting a new phone, I already preordered the iPhone 6, and that could take 2-6 weeks to replace this phone. Is there some setting that is blocking it from activating on Cellulor Data? Can I permittatly keep it activated? Anything that will stop the phone from becoming a brick 2-4 times a day.
    Thanks in advance,
    Ryan.

    I agree that it is a hardware issue and I would have replaced, but losing service was something I just delt with over the years, but now with iOS 8, its becoming a problem. Plus with the release of the iPhone 6...
    I just thought I missed a software setting that would block activating on Cellular Data or something similar to that.

  • How can I stop my iphone from signing my emails "Johnny Appleseed"?

    When I send an email from my iphone it identifies the sender as "Johnny Appleseed" causing much confusion, how do I stop this?

    Go into Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Is this happening at the bottom in the signature section, or in the header of the mail where your email address is? If it is the signature, then go to the Signature area of the Mail settings. If this is in the header, then go to the account in question and edit your account information to include your name instead of Johnny.

  • How can I stop my iPhone from downloading iOS 7?

    I am currently trying to download iOS 7 to my iPhone OTA. However, it seems to be stuck but rather than showing up that an error has occurred, it keeps trying to download. I would like it to stop trying but nothing works. I have tried switching it off and on again and hard reset but when I go back it keeps starting the download again. I'm aware that there are server issues so it may take a while but I would rather try getting it on my computer.
    If anyone can help me

    That seems a really obvious answer but I didn't think of it.
    Thanks!

  • How can I stop Adobe Illustrator from starting automatically i boot

    Every time I turn on my imac, Adobe Illustrator launches automatically. It is not that big a deal, but it is annoying and I cannot figure out how to stop it. I think my 3 yo daughter did it by accident! Thanks for your feedback in advance

    Go to System Prefs>Accounts>your name and remove Adobe from the start-up items. There should also be a place in Adobe preferences that asks if you want it to launch when the computer starts, Deselect that option.

  • How can I stop my iPhone from randomly, persistently, making a noise it should not be making?

    This has been happening for about 1-2 months.
    My iPhone makes a sound which is a normal iOS sound, but without any reason for it to be making the sound. It happens randomly, perhaps 1 day per week although when it happens it happens several times in the same day usually, even after quitting all apps / processes and restarting.
    As you can imagine it's not very easy to describe the sound.
    I do have a lot of apps, but there is free space and I'm rarely using more than Safari and/or Mail when it happens. Often it happens when I am just charging or not using the iPhone and there does not seem to be a correlation with power.
    I have tried restarting the springboard and I have tried restoring from prior states. I have also upgraded the software several times since the first time I had this problem. There are no other problems except for some freezing on occassion.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks!!

    PS It's a Verizon iPhone 4, 16GB, with the most recent iOS and carrier settings installed, WiFi + 3G

    What's the sound?

  • How can I stop my iPhone from Losing space when I STREAM iTunes Movies?

    I mean, isn't the point of streaming so that I don't have to download the movie?  Even if the phone has to download the movie, why isn't there some option to delete the downloaded movie from phone to free up some space!?

    Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Is Time Zone Support on or off?
    If you don't want the date and time updated automatically with your iPhone, you can turn this off at Settings > General > Date & Time > Set Automatically > Off.

    What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
    Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
    - Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear.  (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
    - Relaunch the App and try again.
    - Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    - Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
    - Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
    - Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
    - Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137  For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
    - Test the issue after each step.  If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

  • How can I stop my iPhone from texting to an email address instead of a phone number? It is not an iMessage account.

    My phone will select an email (not an iMessage account) to send a text to instead of sending it to the phone number.  At times it lets me select one of the two but often does not. Especially in group messages.  Any suggestions? It is getting really annoying.

    I agree that it is a hardware issue and I would have replaced, but losing service was something I just delt with over the years, but now with iOS 8, its becoming a problem. Plus with the release of the iPhone 6...
    I just thought I missed a software setting that would block activating on Cellular Data or something similar to that.

  • How can I stop my iPhone from freezing?

    My friends iPhone keeps freezing, is there a way of preventing this form happening?

    If a reset doesn't help, try these steps as needed, as described in the User Guide, Appendix B:
    1. Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    2. Restore phone in iTunes using a backup
    3. Restore phone in iTunes as new, without using a backup.
    http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iphone_user_guide.pdf
    If restoring as new doesn't help, there is a hardware problem in the phone.
