How come I have to leave my iPhone 4S powered on to get the alarm to work?

I really like my iPhone 4S over the previous device (Blackberry); however, it blows my mind that APPLE can't do a simple fix in the Software to enable a User to set his/her Alarm on the iPhone 4S and also be able to power down the phone to save the battery.  Then at the time that you have set the Alarm the iPhone would wake up and power ON and allow the Alarm to work just as it did on my Blackberry.  Surely, someone else has thought about this same issue.

Off is off.
If you want the alrm to go off, the iphone must be on.  It will be in sleep mode which saves battery.
The blackberry was simply on standby mode, not off.  If it was off then the alrrm would not go off either.
Feel free to leave feedback for Apple.  Let them know you want a stand by feature

  • How come I have to go inside my email I order to get the notifications??

    I don't get my email notifications unless I go inside my email. Why is that so? Is there a way I can put it so I actually get them in my notifcations?

    That means you get a notification when an email arrives in your inbox.
    Again does your email provider offer push notification?

  • I use an xpi extension (moderating yahoo groups) for FF on my laptop. I have FF mobile on my Android phone but cannot get the extension to work on the phone. Any ideas? Need any more information from me? Many thanks

    I moderate several 'Freecycle' and similar community groups hosted by Yahoo Groups. A tool has been developed to make this easier (e.g. automating certain functions, standard messages etc) for FF users on PCs & Macs. I have FF mobile on my Android phone but cannot get the moderation tool to install.

    Extensions would need to be modified by the extension author to work with Firefox mobile.

  • When I copy and paste a link into the body of my email, the link won't light up in blue and underline becoming a working link. I do not have this problem with Explorer. Who do I get the link to work?

    Not sure what more I need to say. If you still don't understand, let me know.

    In Rich Text mode, there's an "Add a link" button (an Earth with two chain links in front of it) in the toolbar, which opens a window where you can type a web address. Yahoo! Mail then inserts it into your email as a link.

    There is no way to view your photos via iCloud.com. Videos are not uploaded.
    Photo Stream merely "pushes" the photos to your other devices.

  • HT204053 How do I have my  wife's iphone 4s upload pics to the same icloud used for my ipad and iphone?  Phone does not allow changing icloud ID once established.

    How do I have my wife's iphone 4s upload pics to the same icloud I use for with my 4s and ipad?  Can seem to change her icloud ID to match mine.

    I can tell you how to do this but first wanted to be sure that's what you want to do.  You would then be sharing the same iCloud account and any synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.) would then be merged and the merge data would appear on her phone and your iPad (i.e., you'll end up with each other's contacts on your phone). You would also both be backing up your devices to the same account, sharing the 5GB of free storage (assuming you're both backing up to iCloud).
    There's an alternative setup that would allow her to set up your iCloud account on her phone as her primary account and just turn on photo stream in that account (allowing your to share you photo stream), then set up a secondary iCloud account on her phone that would sync her Mail, Notes, Contacts, Calendars and Reminders.  She would still have to back up her phone to your account, as well as syncing Safari, Documents and Find My iPhone (all of which can only be done in the primary account).  Also, her mail would be fetch, not push as push email is only supported in the primary account.
    I suppose a third option is to leave things as they are and share you photos with each other using shared photo streams.
    Let me know what you want to do and I'll give you the steps.

    i recently bought a new iphone 5s from UAE , but unfortunately i did not find the facetime on my new iphone, how come that i bought a new iphone with missing options , please help

    Your earlier phone must have been originally intended for sale in another country and must have been purchased from somewhere other than an authorized Apple retailer. Phones that are intended to be sold in the UAE have FaceTime permanently disabled. The option is not there and cannot be made to work.

  • How come I have to put in a keychain password every time safari or mail is opened? Is there a way I can disable it or save the password so it doesn't pop up every time?

    How come I have to put in a keychain password every time safari or mail is opened? Is there a way I can disable it or save the password so it doesn't pop up every time? Also, I have my mail account set up from my Yahoo! account and every time I open mail, it asks for the password for my Yahoo! account. I have checked save this password to keychain and it persists on popping up repeatedly.

    You don't want to disable keychain (if there's even a good way to do so), since it stores stuff like certificates and the such.  It's quite useful.
    Anyways, Keychains>Preferences>First Aid.  Check Set Login Keychain as default.  When you login, it unlocks the keychain.
    That should help you.

    A simple search:

    Error 1015: This error is typically caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple. This error can also occur when an unauthorized modification of the iOS has occurred and you are now trying to restore to an authorized, default state.

    Hi all. I have got an Australian iphone but am now living in the UK. How do i change my itunes on my phone to UK itunes?

    Try going into iTunes on your computer. Sign in with your AppleID and go to account. Under the Apple ID summary the Country/Region is listed. Change the country and sync your device.

  • HT204053 how come there is another apple id appears when im about to update the applications that i have downloaded?

    how come there is another apple id appears when im about to update the applications that i have downloaded?

    When a stranger's Apple ID appears on your Mac in conjunction with an update for an app that you have never installed, you have a pirated app on your Mac. The pirated app is not the app calling for the update. This pirated app has been cracked with the MAS receipt from usually a free app, often Angry Birds or Twitter, acquired by the person whose Apple ID you see.
    You may not have realized that it was a pirated app when you installed it. You may have believed that it was a trail version or a "free" version.
    All MAS apps have a MAS receipt in their app bundle. Check any app acquired from the MAS. Right click on the app's icon in your Apps folder and choose Show package contents. In the Contents folder is a _MASReceipt folder and in that folder is the coded MAS receipt. It has the Apple ID of the MAS account that bought/acquired the app from the MAS. It is that receipt that the MAS uses to alert you that an app has an update. There would not be a notice of an update with someone else's Apple ID showing in the MAS on your Mac, if there was not an app with a receipt from this person's account somewhere on your Mac.
    Download the free app FindAnyFile (FAF);
    http://apps.tempel.org/FindAnyFile/
    This app is easier to use and seems to be more powerful than Spotlight. Open FAF and in the box type _MASReceipt and press Find. It should come up with a list of every app on the Mac with a MAS receipt. Compare the apps with receipts in FAF's list with your purchased apps list in the Mac App Store. The odd app out should be the pirated app.

  • N my house we have 2 iphone 4, and everytime we get the same contact list freom each other, how can we unsync the contacts so each user keeps thir own contact list?

    n my house we have 2 iphone 4, and everytime we get the same contact list freom each other, how can we unsync the contacts so each user keeps thir own contact list?

    Hi user 1724, before icloud, we had the same issue.... 
    so yes,  the solution was to  each log  into the mac separately.
    i kept the main itunes library and apple id, and my son made his own itunes library (which linked to the main itunes/apple id)   - so we were able to maintain separate contacts lists.
    but then w/ the cloud i guess we assumed the cloud would know we each have different contact lists on diff. phones, but it seems the cloud just lumped it all together -
