How do I quickly turn off the notifications in ios 5 but still allow the phone calls to ring.

I am trying to learn how to set my Iphone 4 with the ios 5 to silent but still allow the phone calls to ring aloud. At night, I do not want to hear emails and text messages come through, but if someone calls I would like my phone to ring and wake me up. Can this be done easily? I do not wish to go into each notification section and turn off and back on. Hopefully their is a quick set point that would allow all notifications to be turned off and still allow the phone itself to ring.

hi mtbomb,
hi Can you while the Power LED is blinking hold the power down don't let it go until the light disappeared.
Technically the Yoga13 should turn off while holding down the power. at least 10 to 15 sec.
I would suggest calling Technical Support if the above steps did not resolve the issue.
It's possible that when you turn on the system, it is not going to sleep but the blinking indicates failure.
Best regards
Solid Cruver

When installing third party software, how do I temporarily turn off the factory installed virus sw and firewall?

when installing third party software, how do I temporarily turn off the factory installed virus sw and firewall? Is it necessary on a Mac to do so? I come from the Windows world and am still in the learning curve on the Mac.

Correct. I have not installed ANY other software for anti-virus, etc. I want to install a Synch app for my HTC phone to sych with MS Outlook 2011 installed on my Mac. HTC will not synch with it otherwise. That was really the basis for my question....if installing a non Apple app can be done without messing with factory settings on the Mac. In Windows I remember that I needed to disable Norton and the Firewall in order for installation to occur.
Thanks.

I just learned how to listen to music on my Apple Radio Station, now please tell me how to turn it off! I had to turn off the phone to make the radio stop playing!

As when stopping the play of a song with the music app.
There is a pause button and a fast forward button to the next song above the volume level indicator at the bottom. Select the pause button which will turn to a play button. When wanting to start playing again, press the play button.

I recommend checking your prompts and alerts to turn this feature off. This may be you "Call Connect" or "Readout" alerts. Listed below are steps to update this feature.
With the flip open, press the Voice Command Key (on the left side of the phone).The Voice Commands feature has several settings which allow you to customize how you want to use it. Access Voice Commands, then press the Right Soft Key[Settings]. Your choices are below:
-Confirm Choices--- Automatic/Always Confirm/ Never Confirm
-Sensitivity--- Control the sensitivity as More Sensitive/ Automatic/Less Sensitive
-Adapt Voice ---If the phone often asks you to repeat voice command,train the phone to recognize your voice patterns.Train Words/ Train Digits
Prompts ---Mode/ Audio Playback/Timeout
* For Mode, set Prompts/ Readout+ Alerts/ Readout/ Tones Only.
* For Audio Playback, set Speakerphone or Earpiece.
* For Timeout, set 5 seconds or 10seconds.

I have iphone5s and there is some problem about my iphone. I turn off the phone and then I turn on. After I turned on, It showed the page of apple signal and then the page of loading. It used long time to show the loading page. Then it was back to page of apple and then loading page again many times. What happen with it? And what should I do?

Did you already try to reset the phone again by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again?
If this does not work, try to set it up as new device, explained here:

I have just now tried the Reinstall via iTunes, about 20 into the download, the iTunes logo on the phone disappeared, and the Apple Logo appeared again,,, I waited until the iTunes stated that the download had finished, and the install was in progress,,,
Nothing happened, still the Apple Logo was visual on the screen, iTunes never recognised the phone which it was on my iTunes account previously,,,
Still just a bunch of lines, maybe 5 or 6 so small writing,, I personally can not read what it is telling me, someone said it reads, incorrect shutdown,,,????????

I turn off the phone will not turn to dear, I need the photos...

I turn off the phone will not turn to dear, I need the photos emergencies because there I have very important information. That I can do to recover photos. I understand that you had downloaded the iCloud but when I Icloud not appear on photos.

Through iTunes, plug it in and you should be able to do a iCloud restore

I just tried to update my iPhone 4 and it said it was successful, but now I have a message (USB icon - arrow- iTunes icon) that is frozen? I have turned off the phone, unplugged USB and reconnected and closed out of iTunes and back in. Any suggestions?

IPHONE photos erased when you turn off the phone

I have a new IPHONE 3G phone .I can take pictures with the phone which are fine until I turn off the phone. When I turn it on again the photos taken with the IPHONE have disappeared.

The red arrow on the screen when you hold the top button down for a 3-5 seconds is the Power Off slider, which you move across the screen with your finger. Just pushing the top button momentarily puts the phone to sleep. Either way, the photo should be saved. If the photo is not saved to Photos>Camera Roll (and you are sure you are looking at Camera Roll and not another Photo Album), then you must have a corruption somewhere. If the Restore did not work, the only other option besides taking the phone in to Apple is to do another Restore and don't put anything back in until you try the Camera function, just to rule out the possibility that you are reloading a corruption. I've seen no other posts here about this, but it might be worthwhile to do a search and see.

Because that's the way it is designed. If you don't like it, don't purchase an iPhone, or tell Apple you don't like it:

Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider if it appears), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot. You can then do a backup

do a reset, hold down the home/power button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up. Then try powering off your phone.
