How do I prevent my iPhone from moving my music to the cloud?

This is so frustrating! Every time I try to listen to my music on my iPhone it's all greed out with the cloud icon next to it. This is absolutely the worst music software I've ever used. The interface immediately vanishes replaced by a screen full of tiny 1/10th of a postage stamp sized pictures of my albums, thereby losing the album I was trying to download from a place I never told the software to put my music in the first place. At first I tried emailing support. Got no help at all. Then I tried canceling my subscription to the cloud thinking "ha! Try to steal my music now! Stupid cloud!" then of course I had no access to my music from my phone what so ever. Touché cloud! You win this round! So I BEGRUDGINGLY renew my subscription to this awful service that is holding my
music HOSTAGE! And of course all the music gets moved off to the cloud again. I want my music to STAY on
my phone!!! DUH!! How simple is that right?? Obviously it's too simple as when I am at work (no wi-fi) I can't listen to music on my phone. Unless, of course I want to use up all my monthy data allotment downloading music that by all logic should STILL BE ON MY PHONE. This is so ridiculous I can't believe I'm actually having to post in a discussion forum for a problem that SEEMS INTENTIONAL on apple's part. PLEASE tell me there is a simple solution or I'm done. I'll go get a galaxy or android as I have been fighting this problem for over a ******* year now.

This is what page 23 of the manula says:
Accept the suggestion: Type a space, punctuation mark, or return character.
Reject a suggestion: Tap the “x” next to the suggestion.
Each time you reject a suggestion for the same word, iPhone becomes more likely to accept
the word.

How can I prevent my iPhone from making calls on its own?

I often put my iPhone in my pocket. Sometimes I then discover that it is making calls on its own.
How can I prevent this?
Thanks.

Turn on auto lock. I have never had my iPhone once do anything without me doing it.

How do I prevent a user from opening multiple instances on the same computer?

On the site oldnavyweekly.com there is a .swf that prevents users from opening multiple instances of the site at the same time on the same computer. If you open the site, and try to open it a second time in another window, it won't load. You can't open the site again until the first window is closed. How did they implement this?
From my analysis it is NOT:
1. Cookies - The block still takes place if you try opening it in IE and also try opening it in Firefox simultaneously.
2. Flash Cookies - The block still takes place if I disable flash cookies.
3. IP Based Block - You are not blocked if you open the site on two separate computers with the same outbound IP address. From my analysis, their server does not assist in the block at all.
It seems as if their .swf is creating some kind of global system-wide object that can be detected in other instances of the application on the same machine. How did they implement this?
Thanks!

you're welcome.
actually, unless you take an extra step, the first opened swf will close. if you want the 2nd to close, the initial receiving lc will send a message to sender that causes the sender to close.

What troubleshooting steps have you tried so far?
Basic Troubleshooting Steps when all else fails
- Quit the App by opening multi-tasking bar, and swiping the App upward to make it disappear. (For iOS 6, holding down the icon for the App for about 3-5 seconds, and then tap the red circle with the white minus sign.)
- Relaunch the App and try again.
- Restart the device. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
- Reset the device. (Same article as above.)
- Reset All Settings (Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings)
- Restore from backup. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766 (If you don't have a backup, make one now, then skip to the next step.)
- Restore as new device. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 For this step, do not re-download ANYTHING, and do not sign into your Apple ID.
- Test the issue after each step. If the last one does not resolve the issue, it is likely a hardware problem.

How can i remove an app from all my devices including the cloud?

There are some apps that we have on my family's devices and in the cloud that I'm no longer comfortable with my kids using. We share one account. How can I delete them from the devices and the cloud so they can't just reinstall them?

It will prevent them from installing any apps. Only someone with the Restriction passcode will be able to turn app downloads back on and download. You do have the option of setting app downloads based on content ratings, but I can't say how effective that is or if it would resolve your issue.

How do I get my iPhone to stop putting things in the cloud?

I put songs on my phone, through iTunes purchases I think, and then they go into the cloud so I have to re-download them, using my data, every time I want to hear them. I have no idea why they go away sometimes and not others either.
I hate the delay- I want my music to be there when I want it- and I don't want to use my data over and over for the same song.
I like the other iPhone+Cloud features, but I want to turn this one off and just have my music stay on my phone- that's why I bought one with a lot of memory\

Hey jel177!
It seems like you may need to turn off your iTunes in the Cloud features and download or sync the songs manually to your phone. Here is a link that can help you adjust those settings:
iTunes Match - iPhone
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iph6e2dfb83
Then, you can use this link to find your purchases and download them to your phone:

How do you prevent a clip from moving to the front when clicking on it?

I really don't understand why, but for some reason whenever you click on a clip in Audition CS6's mutitrack editor, it automatically moves in front of all other clips on it's track. This is extremely annoying behavior if you're working on a track with more than two overlapping clips, and there doesn't seem to be any way to undo the move after it happens. Does anyone know of a way to disable this behavior? I've looked all over the place, but haven't been able to find one.

Fair enough, but I still say having a track be brought to the top by selecting it makes no sense. It creates the potential for you to screw up the arangement of a track without realizing it, and I think the fact that Audition doesn't even allow the action to be reversed by the undo button should be considered a bug. I've never used another audio editor that behaved this way, including earlier versions of Audition. Why not just have a send to front button in the right click menu for when you actually do want to send the track to the front? Also, as opposed to only having a single "send to back" button in the right click menu, there should really be submenu that says "send behind" and then has a list of tracks you can send the current track behind if you hover over it.

How can I prevent web pages from automatically reloading, such as The Druge Report, etc.

Several web sites I frequent automatically reload their front page whenever they want to...not when I manually refresh...interrupting streaming videos, etc. I do not want these pages to do this, only I want the ability to manually refresh a web page.

Yes, many sites need JavaScript to be enabled to work properly.<br /><br />
This site will most likely not work and in the Knowledge Base you see the content for all Firefox versions and platforms.<br />
So you shouldn't disable JavaScript globally, but you can do that selectively on a specific tab or based on websites.

You can block and allow scripts selectively for websites with an extension like NoScript or YesScript.

How can I unlock my iphone after it was wipe by the cloud

My phone was wipe remotely by the icloud. How can I reset it to be used without the persons Apple id and password.

This is not a flaw in the system. It is a theft deterent that meant to render the device useless and it works well.
If this was a company phone then it should be setup as a managed device with Apple Configurator or some other MDM (Mobile Device Management) software. This would have prevented the situation you now have.
In short, Activation Lock cannot be removed without the Apple ID & password of the account it is locked to.
You can try to contact Apple but they most likely, they can't/won't help.

I can't remember the password I used when I did a "backup to computer". Does this mean that my only option for backing up my iphone from now on is using the cloud? #I've tried any PW i can recall ever using, I must have gotten creative darn it.#

I did a backup decided to do a full backup with a password. I forgot the password I used (it was a couple of months ago and I must have gotten creative with it.) Without that password the option to back up to my computer is dead, right? My only option for backup will be the cloud. I want to be sure I understand the mess I am in. I have tried the passwords I have used before, I cannot believe I did this

Yes, the problem is NOT the iOS itself.
When you connect to iTunes, can you make a picture of the "summary" page bottom: the iPhone memory line and post that here?
