How do i change wallpaper - home screen and lock screen and view only the icons?

Ever since I uploaded iOS 7 I have somehow changed the wallpaper from the locked screen and home page. Currently it is set on both (lock and home screen) How do I change it back to be able to view the icons on my iPhone?  Secondly I don't when I have IM either.

Setting wallpaper is done by going to Settings>Wallpapers and Brightness. I'm not sure exactly what you are asking about being able to view the icons. Is it possible you have more than 1 home screen and you are looking at an empty one. Try pressing the home button, what happens? Lastly, I don't know what your statement "I don't when I have IM either", is referring to, or what it means.

    Yeah there's no setting for that. So either you don't have an iPhone, or your iPhone is jail broken. If it's jail broken, just restore to factory and all will be fixed :)

    You make an appointment at the genius bar of your local Apple Store and get it serviced/replaced. You broke it. If you can't even force a reboot, there's nothing much more you can do.

  • How do i change wallpaper with ios7

    how do i change wall paper with ios7

    Settings > Wallpapers & Brightness, and then you have to tap the default wallpaper at the lower left side of the page.  That takes you to another level and you can tap for more optional papers or tap your photo albums to select a photo for wallpaper.
    It takes some playing around but try taping and then when you get a larger selection you can swipe through.

  • TS3988 How can I change my iCloud ID? I moved and the email I used to set it up no longer exists.

    I want to correct my iCloud ID as the email address I used to set it up will no longer exist when I move.
    If I delete the account it says will delete all my contact, calendar, etc. data from my device and I could not deal with that.
    How can I change it and save my data on my devices?

    I have already changed my Apple ID, but now I need to change my ICLOUD ID.
    I can delete the iCloud ID, but then it tells me that it will delete all the data from my device - calendars, contacts etc. which would be totally unacceptable. One of the other threads says you can select save my data, but unless that option is buried it does not appear on the deletion screen.
    So the question remains - how do I change my iCloud ID to a valid email address.  The one I used to set it up will go away in a week when I move and cancel my present Internet service.  Comcast doesn't provide service where we're moving so the email address will go away.

  • Wallpaper and Locked screen Photos

    How can I resize the photos on the wallpaper and locked screens?
    I have photos send to me in either iMsg or Whatsapp and the photos need to be resized when I want to use them as a wallpaper or locked screen.

    Use a photo editor, or a third-party app like Insta-Fix, which works very well to resize photos for use as wallpaper on i-devices. You can also take a screenshot of the photo and use that as your wallpaper.

  • HT4623 Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??

    Is anyone else having issues with scaling down photos to fit the screen for home and lock screens with ios7??  Installed ios7 this morning. Tried to use one of my photos from camera roll as background for lock screen and I can't scale the photo to fit the screen.  Never had a problem before and now when I pinch the photo to get it to the right size of the screen, it won't stay that way. The photo is enlarged way beyond the screen size so it doesn't look right. Does anyone know how to fix this?

    Hello, cliffiapp4.  
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.  
    Here are the steps that I would recommend going through when experiencing this issue.  
    Resolution
    If a single application is not responding or stops responding when it opens, you can force it to close.
    If the device is unresponsive or if certain controls aren't working as expected, restart your device.
    If the device remains unresponsive or does not turn on (or power on), reset your device.
    If the above steps do not resolve the issue, contact Apple.
    iOS: Not responding

    You have to clear saved password for this page:
    # Open you login page (where you have to enter username and password).
    # Right click on page and select '''Page Info''' form context menu.
    # On last tab ('''Security''') there is '''View saved passwords''' button, click it and delete all saved passwords for this page.

  • I changed my Apple ID two weeks ago and I Accidently forgot to sign out of my iCloud on my iPhone 5C. now it wont let me change the iCloud ID to match my new Apple ID. How do I change my iCloud ID even though it is asking for the old ID?

    I changed my Apple ID two weeks ago and I accidently forgot to sign out of my iCloud on my iPhone 5C. Now it wont let me change the iCloud ID to match my new Apple ID. How do I change my iCloud ID even though it is asking for the old ID?

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your current ID, temporarily recreate the old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address.  You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iPhone when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud).  Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

  • How can I change my iphone username to update apps and download anything with the new email I have today?

    how can I change my iphone username to update apps and download anything with the new email I have today?

    Before you make an apple ID with the new email, go to appleid.apple.com.  login with your old email and password. change your old email to your new one. Now you can use your new email as your apple id, but beware if you go through the process of creating a new appleid with your new email address you will not be able to attach your old account to your new email.

  • How to mute and lock screen rotation at the same time? Loved this feature in iOS 5.

    How to mute and lock screen rotation at the same time? Loved this feature in iOS 5.

    You cannot do two different simultaneous VISA writes over a serial bus. There is a single rx line on the pc's com port and a single rx line on the instrument. You only hope is if the instrument allows you to chain commands and the reception of the carriage return triggers the instrument to implement both at the same time. Maybe you can send CTS01 and CTS02 separated by a space or comma. The manual should tell you if that's possible or maybe you need to ask the manufacturer.
