How do I get this lock off of my screen that displays on the left of my battery?

Just want to know how to clear this lock off of my phone that displays on the left side my battery. I believe it hinders me from bringing my key pad up when trying to search for one. Unless it was something that I enabled.

I'm guessing that the icon shows a padlock with a circular arrow around it.  That is orientation lock - prevents the screen from rotating.  To switch it off - go to Control Centre (swipe up from bottom of screen) and press the icon in that screen. Close Control Centre by swiping it down

    Not possible. Safari won't download and save a Zip file. You either had to use a 3rd party app, or as wjosten suggests, your phone is jailbroken. If the former, you'll need to use that app to find it. If the latter, you'll have to look elsewhere for assistance.

    All purchases are considered final, but you can try the 'report a problem' page to contact iTunes Support and see if they will refund or credit you : http://reportaproblem.apple.com
    If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page, then Purchases, Billing & Redemption

    Oh my, that's bad. I've never heard of one of those popups coming back after quitting or force quitting the browser. Try emptying the cache and cookies as well as the history.
    Thomas, some of its components have been identified in this thread, but no one there has done a thorough search.

    Since I don't have it, I can't really be certain where all its crap is located.
    It even looks like it's trying to suck worried people in from a Google search.
    "As it seams..." Sounds like some badly learned English in Eastern Europe.

  • How do I get this music off of my iPhone?

    I keep trying and trying to delete all my music off my phone and it won't delete. When I go to General>Usage>Music and try to delete it from there, it doesn't delete. On iTunes, I have "manually manage music and videos selected" but that doesn't help. When I click "Music" under the name of my device, only 4 songs show up (all of which are greyed out) and I have hundreds. I don't want to delete the songs from my library just so they'll be off my phone. I want to keep the songs in my iTunes library, I just want them off my phone. I don't know how to get this music off and it's making me really angry. Please help!

    Open itunes, connect iphone, select what you want to be on the iphone, sync

  • How do I get this stuff off of my phone?

    Through the 12 days app, I got some music and music videos that downloaded straight to my phone... I no longer want any of it.
    I have swiped on my phone and "deleted" them but, how can i make them go away - they have the cloud symbol and are ready for re-download...
    When I sync to my iTunes - these tracks do not sync to my library.  However, I must have some corrupted files because two of them appear in my iTunes under my phone yet are greyed out and I can't do anthing to them. A third - shows a circled exclamation point to the left and I can't do anything to it either...
    I want all of it off of my phone and iTunes completely!
    HELP!!!

    I basically unsynced all my music from my computer to find this stuff that is apparently not on my computer but won't go away from my phone...
    Do I seriously have to do a restore to get it off?
    Why are there so many discrepancies between what my phone shows is on it and what iTunes shows on my phone when it is plugged in?
    HELP!

    That's unfortunate.  Go to http://www.apple.com/feedback/ and leave Apple feedback about iOS 7.

  • My ipod screen shows not enough storage message but it will not let me close or go to settings.  How do I get this message off to get to my settings to get to the icloud setting?

    My ipod screen shows "not enough storage" message but will not let me click on the cancel or settings button.  How do I fix this?

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.

  • Hello my question is how can i get this circle off my ipod touch its not letting me go on my lock screen i try restoring it but itunes wont let my restore it

    Please answer my question, I really need my iPod Touch back.

    First try a reset:
    Hold the home and power buttons at the same time until the Apple boot logo appears. No data will be lost.
    If that doesn't work, try a restore again. If necessary, place the iPod in Recovery Mode: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808

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

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    For how to restore:
    iTunes: Restoring iOS software
    To restore from backup see:
    iOS: How to back up
    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
    You can redownload iTunes purchases by:
    Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store

  • I have the newest version of FF but every single page shows lines through ALL the links!!!! How can I get this turned off - so annoying! Might have to go back to IE :(

    Every single page I go to has lines through a link - what is causing this? I have Google Chrome and I do not have any problems with them! PLEASE HELP!!

    Sounds like an extension, theme, or style
    Are you sure it is all links as opposed to only visited, no-follow links, or unvisited links

    site:userstyles.org/styles/ -inurl:browse links strike OR strike-out OR cross-out
    site:addons.mozilla.com -inurl:collection links strike OR strike-out OR cross-out
    another reason might be that Mozilla and Google use colors that make

  • I just want to iCloud off my iPad iPhone. It is interfering with my gmail and messaging. How do I get this crap off?

    Why does iCloud get in the way of gmail and sending or receiving messages?

    It doesn't get in the way of anything. It's usually the user that causes problems.
    just log out if you don't wish to use it.
