How do I stop a 3 GS from dropping calls? It just shuts off while sitting and talking.

This iPhone is the worst purchase I have ever made in all my 60 years and as soon as my contract expires I will replace it with a Samsung Galaxy S III, but in the meantime I would like to know why it shuts off and how to prevent that. After a few minutes the thing goes off and the apple icon appears on the screen. Then after about 10 minutes it will turn back on.

    If you're syncing, you have to unselect the photos you no longer wish to sync, and they won't show up on your phone anymore.

    Just set up an email account on new iPhone. How do I stop it wanti g to download all 4,000  emails off my server and just download new emails?

    You can go into settings, mail, contacts and calendars, and set your mail to only download the last 50.
    When you actually set upthe account, you can go into any available advanced settings and see if that can be set to new mail only. Unfortunately, every mail provider had slightly different things they'll allow you to tweak, so you just have to play to see what you can do.
    For example, when I set up my Yahoo, I have different things I can tweak than I do on my Hotmail account, so some accounts allow more ability to tweak than others.

  • Help! How do I stop my Wi Fi from dropping connection?

    I know this has been an ongoing issue with MacBooks, but now this has gotten to the point where it is stopping me from being productive with my work.
    Every 18 minutes or so, I can't reach any web pages even though the Airport Icon shows me connected at full strength. If I mess around with the network settings or turn off and on airport it does seem to help for awhile. Also if I close the lid or put the computer to sleep and then awaken it up, it will also help for awhile.
    I never had this problem when I was using 10.4.8. Ever since upgrading to 10.4.11, I have had the wireless problems.
    Any solutions would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks.

    Are you running 10.4.11 on your MacBook?
    I never had any trouble with my Wireless until I installed 10.4.11
    I know there are many out there with the same type of issue, but I am starting to believe it must not be all that serious because Apple hasn't acknowledged it.
    I am going to have to live with the connection drops I guess, seeing that there really isn't a true fix to this on going problem.
    I have used Macs for almost 15 years because of my Graphic Design career, and have always bragged how they are so much more stable than PC's.
    Ever since Apple decided to go with the Intel Chips, they do not seem to be as stable as they once where.
    I also have a G4 Power PC and a Mac Mini running Tiger, and have never had one problem that I couldn't take care of.
    Apple still makes a great product, but they need to address the common issues that are presented on this forum.

  • How do I stop iPod 5th gen from syncing Photos, not just music?

    It is so long since I used my old iPod that I've forgotten how to select what I want and don't want to be downloaded.
    When I synced it, it started downloading over 1000 photos from iPhoto.  All I want to do is add an album I purchased from the iTunes store and a new playlist in iTunes.  I can't even tell what it's downloading because all I see is a kind of flashing Do Not Enter sign with "Do not disconnect." 
    How am I supposed to know what it's downloading and when it's finished?
    Help!

    I would have a look at your iPod's User Guide for assistance on the different syncing preferences you can set up with your iPod and the different content that can be synced to it.

  • How do I stop Wi-Fi internet from dropping out?

    Hi,
    I recently purchased a new router/modem from my internet provider (Telecom) and my iMac will connect, the internet will work for 30minutes or so, then the internet will drop out, but the Wi-Fi is still connected, so I still have access to local services such as my Apple TV. To fix it, I have to turn off Wi-Fi on my computer and turn it back on again. These internet cutouts are annoying in a Skype call (I am a gamer), because you will be talking to someone, and it takes about a minute for skype to realise it has lost connection. Although the modem is Telecom (the main New Zealand telco) branded, it is a Huawei HG630b modem. I was wondering if anyone had this modem, or even another Huawei modem and had the same problem, and how they fixed it. My computer didn't start doing this until a week after we got the modem.
    The modems website is here, don't think it will help though: http://help.telecom.co.nz/app/answers/detail/a_id/34264

  • Whenever I sync my iPhone5 or update my apps and I am required to enter my apple ID, afterwards several other people's emails appear. How do I stop this? I spend a few minutes just hitting the cancel button and it's annoying.

    When I went to apple due to a problem with my phone, I had to type in my information and this had occurred. The worker had told me it was other people tapping into my account or something along those lines. I don't remember the exact words. However, I never thought to ask how to end this.

    Change the password of your Apple ID could maybe solve.
    but you ALWAYS have to typ your password if you wan't to downlad an app. After iOS 6 you DON'T have to typ password at an update.

  • My ipod 5 shut off while charging and wont turn back on , how do i turn it on without deleting everything.?

    Helppppp

    Try the following. However, it may end up erasing the iPod since a software problem may have caused the problem.:                           
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - Try another cable
    - Try on another computer                            
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • How can I stop the voice over from my apple tv

    I have just connected my Apple TV which appears to be working ok. How do I stop the interactive voice from speaking.

    I have the 2nd Gen Apple TV and it is where I said. Have you updated yours to the latest firmware/software? I can't see why you are unable to find it otherwise. I will take pictures if you want me to.

  • How do I stop Serial "VISA Read" from giving me packets instead of available bytes.

    Dear Labvillians,
    Highlight:
    How do I stop serial "VISA read" from giving me packets instead of bytes?
    Background:
    I have a system that serially publishes 14 byte packets on a semi-regular interval.
    At busy times, the producer of these these packets queues the data, effectively producing super-packets in multiples of 14 bytes sometimes as large as 8 packets (112 bytes).
    My protocol handler has been designed to processes bytes, packets or super-packets.
    My application now has multiple devices and the order of message processing is critical to correct functionality.
    My observation is that the VISA read waits until the end of a packet/ super-packet before passing the data to the application code. (See Plot Below)
    My expectation is that VISA read should give me available bytes, and not get too smart for itself and wait for a packet.
    I have observed this on PXI, Embedded PC, cFP and most recently, cRIO
    I have experimented with the cRIO's Scan interface rate, which helps with reducing the packet backlog but doesn't resolve to sub-packet byte read.
    I understand that one solution is to Write FPGA code to handle it and pass the bytes through R/T-FIFO, and there are some great examples on this site.
    Unfortunately this doesn't help with non FPGA devices.
    I have also dabbled in event based serial reads but it is diabolical on vxWorks devices.
    Any Help is appreciated

  • How do I stop my MacBook Pro from making shortcuts on my desktop when I'm moving a folder

    So my question is,
    How do I stop my MacBook Pro from making shortcuts on the desktop when I'm trying to move the original photo, all I want to do is move a picture from a folder on the desktop without making a shortcut!

    Hi RockHazard,
    If you want to change the behavior of the Finder when moving files around you can use keyboard shortcuts.
    OS X: Keyboard shortcuts - Apple Support
    Way down under Finder shortcuts we find:          
    Command key while dragging
    Move the dragged item to another volume or location
    (the pointer changes while key is held)
    Option key while dragging
    Copy the dragged item
    (the pointer changes while key is held)
    Command-Option key combination while dragging
    Make an alias of the dragged item
    (the pointer changes while key is held)
    Best regards,
    Nubz
