How do I stop phone from ringing (externally) while using Jawbone bluetooth

I recently purchased a Jawbone ERA and I noticed that the phone (externally) rings while I have the Jawbone in my ear.  My previous bluetooth only rang in my ear. 
If I set the phone to vibrate, then it stops the external ring and I only hear it in my ear, but then I don't get email and text tones in my ear if it's on vibrate.
I would like it to only ring in my ear w/o having to put it on vibrate. 
Can anyone help with this? 

Vibrate and what you call "mute" are the same thing.  The little button on the side that's orange?  That's the button I'm talking about.  It puts it on vibrate because have it set to "vibrate on silent."  Regardless, it would have the same result.  
I don't want a vibrate only ringtone - then I have to keep changing the ringtone back to "sound" every time I stop using the bluetooth.  I want the bluetooth to work like a bluetooth is supposed to work.  When it's in your ear . . . every sound should be going . . . in your ear.   For the price of this Jawbone, you should be able to silence the external ring.  My cheap Motorola bluetooth did it.  
I have a message in to Jawbone too, so hopefully they'll be able to help.
Thank you for taking the time to respond.

  • How do i stop notifications from ringing while im on a phone call on the iphone 4s

    how do i stop notifications from ringing while im on a phone call on the iphone 4s?

    Basel,
    I'm not sure why these folks are having trouble understanding your request. I will dumb it down for them. Is there an option to have the iPhone only provide me with notifications when I'm not on the phone. Having my $800ish phone buzz and interrupt my phone conversation (after all primary function of this iPhone is being a phone) to let me know one of my Facebook friends has challenged me to a game of words with friends. I don't want my iPhone to not notify me at all. It can notify me after the call (again primary function) is complete. Going through menus and turning off notifications all together is absolutely silly. I wouldn't want to have to navigate through the menus and turn them off and then on an then off just to make or receive a phone call. Could you imagine answering you phone with, "hey, just wait I have to turn my notifications off so I can have this conversation." every time you wanted to talk on the phone.
    So yeah. Again not sure why they were having trouble with understanding you. I hope this helps clarify it for them.

  • How do I stop airport from shuting off during use?

    I am using an airport base station with a G4 1.4 dual chip desktop. Airport will shut itself off while I am using airport, the signal drops low, and I can see what looks like redialing activity. The airport icon will open and close at will. Some times airport shuts itself off completely, and I need to turn everything off for several minutes and restart. Sometimes the problem comes right back up.
    Are there settings in the system software or airport software that I can change to stop this awful activity. I have inactivated the network prot connections for internal modem and for ethernet. What else can I do?
    Thanks.
    John

    Hello again John,
    1. I have the Extreme basestation
    I have the Extreme BaseStation (with modem) too so I can give you specific tips about it. Which one do you have? The one with the built-in modem or the one without a built-in modem?
    If you have the one with the modem: Do you connect the BaseStation's modem to your wall RJ-45 socket to have dial-up access in case your broadband connection goes down?
    2. The base station connects directly to a DSL modem
    Make/model of your DSL modem? Is it a modem/router combo too?
    3. The G4 mac has the Apple extreme card.
    That's fine
    4. Airport is updated to version 4.2 -- it was the latest one I found on the Apple site for downloading -- I try to update when software update alerts me.
    That's fine too
    5. I have a couple of laptops in addition to the G4 and the basestation.
    Mac laptops / PC laptops?
    I assume the laptops are also connecting wirelessly to the BaseStation?
    What kind of wireless cards are in your laptops (make/model)?
    Do you have any services enabled like File Sharing, Printer Sharing etc?
    6. I have been living with this issue for ever since I switched to airport a couple of years ago. I asked for help a couple of times before and was referred to airport files about troubleshooting networks etc. which did not work for me. Whenever the redial kicks in and shuts down something important I get frustrated enough to try and fix the problem, so here I am again.
    Now we need to clarify the issue. The title of your topic is "How do I stop AirPort from shuting off" and here you state "whenever the redial kicks in and shuts everything down..". Since these descritpions are contradictive, tell me what happens:
    Does the BaseStation turn off (ie no power) unexpectedly? [this indicates hardware failure]
    Does the signal of your AirPort card (inside your Mac) goes low and eventualy the connection to the BaseStation drops?
    I inactivate the network ports for the ethernet and internal modem and inactivated redial options in PPP or PPPoe. However, the redial option gets reactivated occassionally --I assume the OS is repairing what it thinks is broken and tries to make the modem work. I haven't been able to figure out which file is responsible for this redial mess nor how to stop it.
    Where does the redialing takes place? From your Mac or from the BaseStation (only if you have the one with the built-in modem)? What is it trying to redial (dial-up net access number)?
    Go to AirPort Admin Utility and click on the Internet tab. What's your selection for the Connect Using drop-down menu?
    Finally to do proper troubleshooting, shut down every device on your network excetpt: the broadband modem, the BaseStation and your Mac

  • How do I stop calls from ringing on both of my iPhone's?

    i have a personal iPhone 5s with AT&t and a company iPhone 5s with Verizon.  I just updated both to 8.1 and now when a call comes in it will ring and if I do not pick it up right away it starts to ring the other one.  How do I stop this?  I have to reboot them and it stops doing it for a while but then it will do it again after a while.

    On the phone you do not want to receive calls on, go to Settings > FaceTime > iPhone Cellular Calls OFF.

  • How can I stop Spotlight from indexing external drives?

    I work in an environment where we plugin several different costumer harddrives all day long as part of our working process. Often only to extract one file from a given drive. Therefore its annoying that Spotlight automatically starts indexing these drives, because it slows down everthing, but also because our windows costumers suddenly see these weird mac files on their drives, that are invisible to the macuser. The Privacy setting is not of much use, as its impossible to add oru costumers drives to the list - we simply don't know the drive until we see it.
    How can spotlight stop indexing?

    The Privacy option is okay for private users, but at work we receive alot of harddrives from costumers and we simply cannot spend the extra time waiting for a drive to be indexed every time it is connected. That drive may never be connected again as it belongs to a costumer, and it is impossible for us to add drives to the Privacy pane, because we do not know they exist before we see them infront of us. The ption to disable all external drives from being indexed would be great. Or that the indexing can be stopped in the spotlight menu, or that the indexing will not start until 10 minutes after the drive has been mounted - and only if the drive is inactive.

  • Stopping phone from contacting vodafone while usin...

    Hi,
    I've had an E71 for a few weeks but there's a few things things  bugging me.  I don't really need to access the internet with it, but I've tried when close to a free WiFi area.
    A few times, it's lost the connection and each time, I've been charged a lot by vodafone for just a few seconds of data transfer.   No idea why this is.
    Can I set the phone so it doesn't access the internet via vodafone without asking me?
    Also, can I download maps for a country or area free of charge so I can find out where I am without having to download the maps there and then?
    Many thanks,
    Steve

    I had this problem with o2 WAP connections too - every split second it tried to connect by o2 WAP and I interrupted it, I got charged for a whole minute by o2. o2's customer support was really nice and understanding about it. They also recommended turning off the GPRS capability in the SIM card to prevent the phone from randomly trying to connect via WAP. This doesn't affect the WLAN/WiFi access apparently, but it does stop me from being able to send MMS or synch with the O2 Communication Center. I'm not sure if it's an equivalent/alternative solution to yours - it was easy, but then maybe it's too limiting???

  • How to perform an activity from an external link using PAPI?

    Hi,
    The question is:
    I've got an external web application that lists all the instances of a user's inbox.
    On every item of the list, I've got a hyperlink. Through this link, I just want to perform the very interactive activity this instance requires.
    (Just like the activity link in workspace. If the activity's task is a screen flow, the link will also perform that screen flow. All the difference is that it's an external link)
    Thanks a lot

    If you want to execute an screenflow from an external application the only way I know is with WAPI.
    You can check the WAPI possibilities in your installation in /weabapps/workspace/wapi/urlActionsExample.jsp

  • How can I erase images from the clipboard while using ink and slide or sketches and lines apps?

    I've been having trouble with my clipboard while using my adobe ink. Is there any way I can erase the images saved on the clipboard, because have been trying and I can't find a way to do it, it seems like the only option is by turning the selection into favorites and then a trashcan icon appears, but even if I choose delete it will only be erased from the clipboard favorites while remaining on the clipboard.
    I've thought erasing the sketches App, or deleting the project but I don't want to risk losing my work.
    Thanks!

    I posed a similar question in the Draw forum and got this reply:
    Re: How to clear the clipboard and empty drawings ?
    In short: you can't erase those clippings, at least not currently.

  • How do you stop phone from rebooting when connected to internet?

    i have been experiencing problems w my 8900 when i'm connected to the internet. whenever i'm on internet it reboots by itself. can sumone tell me how i can solve this issue

    Hi and Welcome to the Forums!
    Anytime random strange behaviors creep in, the first thing to do is a battery pop reboot. With power ON, remove the back cover and pull out the battery. Wait about a minute then replace the battery and cover. Power up and wait patiently through the long reboot -- ~5 minutes. See if things have returned to good operation. Like all computing devices, BB's suffer from memory leaks and such...with a hard reboot being the best cure.
    Best!

  • How do I stop calls from ringing multiple devices?

    My husband and I are on the same iTunes account.  We have new iphone 6s.  Once we upgraded to IOS 8.1, calls to either of us are now showing up on both phones even though the caller is obviously only calling one number.

    FoxFirth's answer should have solved this riddle, but you might consider setting up your own Apple ID ( they aren't supposed to be shared by two people, otherwise these issue happen) and start using: Family Sharing - Apple Support

  • How do I stop Dreamweaver from replaceing " with È while in code view

    Here is my problem (DWCS5 Version):
    I open DreamWeaver and all is fine. I only use code view.
    As I work I might open .cfm files, or even (it seems) open a browser - and when I return to writing my code, when I type " Dreamweaver types È
    " is typed as È
    ' is typed as è
    The only way to stop is is close Dreamweaver and reopen. Then the coding works great for that file until I visit another file I opend or even a browser that was open. It's not every file that I open or page that I visit. I've yet to determine what is happening.
    It feels like dreamweaver is somehow changing character sets.
    For example, DreamWeaver is currently messed up replacing characters, but it works fine filling out this post.

  • How can I stop iTunes from launching when I disconnect my Bluetooth device?

    This has only become a problem recently. Whenever I disconnect -- not connect, disconnect -- my Bluetooth Bose SoundLink Mini speaker from my MacBook Pro iTunes will auto-launch. I am current with Mavericks and iTunes updates. There must be a configuration switch that can be tweaked to prevent this from occurring.
    Has anyone else encountered this problem? Is there anyone who is a MacBook Pro "expert" who understands what the interactions are between the Bluetooth driver and app software and iTunes, and can speak with authority on what might be going on here?

    This problem has been an issue for a number of months and has led to frustration and public humiliation on countless occasions.
    When disconnecting from my Bose Soundlink at home (playing nothing) in order to taking my laptop on the run I open my laptop to find that the entire contents of my iTunes playlist is being belted in public. The subway, the library, my classroom is not the time or place for my laptop to make the decision to begin playing my music without permission. When at home and my Soundlink goes on standby I have nearly had a heart attack when my laptop spontaneously begins blaring my music when I wasn't even touching the thing.
    I love my Soundlink and I love my Mac but together the devices are causing no end of aggravation with no fix in sight. With each OS update I hope the problem is addressed but to no avail, it is getting tiresome that such a flaw isn't being fixed in a timely manner.
