  • How can I get my keyboard lights to come on?

    How can I get my keyboard lights to come on? When I press the button to turn them up higher, I get a sign meaning I cannot do that. Any help?

    MegoStello,
    There are a few situations when you won't see the keyboard light up as much as you might. If you're in a bright place or outside, the keyboard backlight won't come on. If you're on battery, your MBP may reduce power consumption by cutting off your backlit keyboard.
    On the other hand, you'll nearly always see the backlit keyboard if you're plugged in. In short, your MBP tries to manage your power usage according to your needs.
    MegoStello, if you found this info moderately useful, let me know in this thread. That's how I know if my info is what you need!

  • I want to delete a few contacts, apps, pics etc from my iphone, but when I delete and connect to my laptop they sync and come back again. How can I delete those items and not get them back when I connect my iphone to my laptop?

    I want to delete a few contacts, apps, pics etc from my iphone, but when I delete and connect to my laptop they sync and come back again. How can I delete those items and not get them back when I connect my iphone to my laptop?
    Also where exactly on the laptop is teh data stored.
    Thank you!!

    go to 'Edit' in the menu bar. Then choose 'Preferences'.
    you'll see a pop-up and there's a tab called 'Devices' there. If you click that, you will be able to check a box that says 'prevent automatic syncing for iPods, iPads and iPhones' or something like that.
    Hope this helps
    NB: if you don't even see the menu bar that has options like 'File, Edit, View, etc', first click the black/white square button on the top left of your screen, and then click 'show menu bar'. It should pop right up.
    Good luck

  • My ipod touch is disabled and it says to connect to itunes but itunes says it can't sync since it is locked.  How can I unlock it and get all my data back?  (apps, profiles, gaming levels.)

    My ipod touch is disabled and it says to connect to itunes but itunes says it can't sync because it is locked.  Any way to unlock and keep data?  (apps, gaming levels, music).

    Hi,
    Take it to you nearest Apple Store and see what they have to say. You should back up you data before you go in but in your case you can not.

  • How can I unlock the screen after a shock lighter?

    how can I unlock the screen after a shock lighter?

    What is a shock lighter? I don't understand what you are asking? If you are saying the the slide to unlock isn't working, try rebooting your iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up

  • How do I unlock my keyboard

    How do I unlock the keyboard on my HP Pavilion dv6.It worked fine until my two year old touched it. I don't know if there is a key to lock and unlock it. It does not work at all.

    There was no damage done to it. It does not work at all, The only way I can use it is by signing in with my fingerprint and using the on screen keyboard. I have not tried using an external keyboard, it kind of defeats the pupose of having a laptop which I am supposed to be able to take with me on the go. There is a key on it that has a padlock icon on it. I did not know if that unlocked it or not. The only button that works on it is the fn key, but I have to hold ot down to allow it to work. And it only works on the sign in page.

  • How can I make a "Keyboard Lock" while iTunes is playing?

    How can I make a "Keyboard Lock" while iTunes or other apps are playing? They should work/play on, screen should still be on, only keyboard is (maybe Password-) locked.
    Thanx in adv, tttimo

    Menu > Apple > System Preferences > Keyboard > Keyboard Shortcuts Application Shortcuts > + > Application: Browse to Pages > Menu Title: Footnote > Keyboard Shortcut: hit combination of keys > Add
    You will need to restart Pages but should then see it next to your Menu item.

  • My Ipad is in a locked rotation.  How can I unlock it?  carolynmunson

    My Ipad is in a locked rotation.  How can I unlock it?  carolynm.

    Is there a lock symbol at the top of the screen next to the battery indicator ? If there is, then depending on what you've got Settings > General > Use Side Switch To set to (rotation lock or mute notifications), then you can lock/unlock the rotation by the switch on the right hand side of the iPad, or via the taskbar : double-click the home button; slide from the left; and it's the icon far left; press home again to exit the taskbar. The function that isn't on the side switch is set via the taskbar instead : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4085
    If there isn't a lock symbol then try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

  • Ipad disabled. How can I unlock without restoring on Itunes? Need the photos

    My daughter disabled my Ipad. Now it says to connect to Itunes and does not even allow me to put in a code. I have many photos and videos saved on my Ipad I wish not to erase. Any way to unlock the ipad without having to restore it through itunes? Or some how pull photos and videos prior to restoring? Any help please. Thank you. CHRIS

    When you have important videos/photos on your iPad, you should backup frequently.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • HT4976 how can I use emoji keyboard on iPhone 3GS????

    how can  I use emoji keyboard on iPhone 3GS In wts app nd version ov this is 5.1.1(9B206)????????

    Once the keyboard is connected, it should work with any app that uses the standard keyboard interface, so it will work with iWork.
    br121: iWork was released for iPad quite some time ago, and updated for iPhone 4 recently.

    How can I unlock my Ipod?

    You do not have to restore as new.  You can restore fom backup since the screen-lock passcode isnot in the backup.  ALso, if  iTunes asks for the passcode andyu can't enter the passcode place the iPod in recovery mode and then restore. For recovery mode:

    Hi,
    Try a Reset of the Phone... You will Not Lose Any Data...
    Turn the Phone Off...
    Press and Hold the Sleep/Wake Button and the Home Button at the Same Time...
    The Apple logo will Appear and then Disappear...
    Usually takes about 10 - 15 Seconds...
    Turn the Phone On...
    If that does not help... See Here:

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
