How do I make iPhone screen go to black?

I jog at night and use my iPhone as an mp3 player. Every time I change song lists or touch the screen, the display stays on for a long time before going black. I would like an icon on the homepage of my iPhone that will darken the screen upon touching it after choosing a playlist, audiobook or podcast, yet allows instant touch re-activation and constant mp3 use. Sort of like turning off the computer monitor rather than the entire computer. Is there anything like this for the iPhone?

Why don't you press the sleep button? The music will keep on playing, if you want to choose another playlist, just hit the sleep button and you're back to the ipod.

  • How to fix my iphone screen because it blacked out and it still works

    how can i fix my iphone screen .
    It blacked out but my phone still work help!!!!

    Hi zhamond,
    If your screen is black but the phone appears to still be responding, you may have inadvertently activated a feature known as Screen Curtains (part of the Accessibility functions). You may find the following information from the iOS manual helpful (pg 126):
    Turn the screen curtain on or off. Triple-tap with three fingers. When the screen curtain is on, the screen contents are active even though the display is turned off.

    You need to be a little clearer in what you're asking.
    You can't make any web site in SQL Server - it's a database engine, not a website tool.
    What you can do is create web sites that pull data from a back-end SQL Server, but the SQL server doesn't handle the client connection at all (that's handled by a web server such as Apache, IIS, or similar).
    There are many ways to build such a site including .NET, PHP, Perl and more (although I don't know all the options for Windows servers because they're not as common outside of corporate/enterprise networks).
    In either case, given your choice of development language (HTML, plus one of the PHP/Perl/.NET/etc. options), plus your database (SQL Server) plus your web server (IIS, Apache, etc.) you can make any web site you like (or, at least, you're capable of developing).
    If you want to opimize that web site for iPhones then there are many references on how mobile browsing differs from the desktop. I'd recommend this book as a reference (and, yes, I understand the irony of linking to a paperback book for web design guidance ). Googling mobile web design (or iPhone web design) might yield more results.

  • How may I make my screen shots default to a .jpg instead of .png

    How may I make my screen shots default to a .jpg instead of .png?
    Is there a preference somewhere?

    One easy way is:
    Changing the File Format
    In order to change the file format you must firstly open up a Terminal window (Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app), and type the following.
    defaults write com.apple.screencapture type TYPE
    For the command to work, you need to replace “TYPE” with a valid file format, the available options are:
    png (default)
    pdf
    jpg
    jp[2 (jpeg 2000)
    gif
    tiff
    bmp
    pict
    tga
    Once you have selected your format simply issues the command, placing the file format in it’s space. For example for a JPG, I would issue:
    defaults write com.apple.screencapture type jpg

  • My iphone screen has turned black, phone is still on as screen shots can be taken. When home button and power button are held - no apple icon will appear. Please help

    My iphone screen has turned black, phone is still on as screen shots can be taken. When home button and power button are held - no apple icon will appear. Please help??

    If this iPhone has had the screen replaced previously, possibly LCD Display connector has simply come loose from the Logic Board. Possibly the LCD Display is faulty and the front screen assembly needs to be replaced. If you have Warranty or AppleCare make Genius reservation or set up service and take or send to Apple. This is handled by Apple with Replacement iPhone 4S.

  • How do I make iPhone passive in iPhoto - not once but always

    I use Aperture and iPhoto. I import all my photostreams and photos to Aperture. It is my main photo application.
    But I also use iPhoto for special fotos and events.
    I never syncronize my iPhone with iPhoto or iTunes, but I often connect it to my MacBook just to charge the phone.
    Every time I work in iPhoto and connect my iPhone, iPhoto will open my photo roll and make my photo roll ready for import.
    Then I can right-click on the iPhone in the iPhoto device list and make the phone "passive". But I have to do that EVERY TIME I connect the phone.
    How do I make the iPhone passive??
    I don't want the phone to be "married" to iPhoto. It should be "married" to Aperture ONLY.
    Frank

    You can't. If iPhoto is open when you connect the phone then it will offer itself from importing.
    Regards

  • How can I make IPhone 4 "invisible" when Bluetooth is switched on?

    How can I make my Iphone 4 invisible when Bluetooth is switched on???
    Peter

    If your phone is not jailbroken, they will not be able to connect to it. It will not be discoverable unless you go into the bluetooth settings page on the phone, which makes it discoverable. If people are attempting to connect to it, I'll lay odds that FAST&FURIOUS is correct in his guess that your phone is jailbroken. If that's the case, all bets are off. Jailbreaking compromises the security of your device as well as rendering the warranty void.
