How do I stop SMS tones from interrupting my call?

When I'm on a call ifi get an email or a text message the alert that I have assigned to it interrupts while I'm on the phone and I can't hear the person I'm talking to

Flipping sthe witch isn't the proper fix. Ever forget to flip the switch back after the call & lay the phone down & then find out later that you missed calls & texts?  Plus, when the phone is in a case, hard to flip the switch.  Then even harder if your wearing gloves & you are using your nose to swipe across to answer the phone.  Only way to get it fixed, is to write apple & make the suggestion to fix it.
I do not recall any of the other iprevious OS versions having this problem until the most recent one.
There's no phone setting to silence alerts during phone calls.  You can suggest this to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html

  • How can I stop text tones from playing while listening to music?

    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 do I stop an app from waiting?  I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down.  Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop with no success.  Can you help?  Thanks.

    How do I stop an app from waiting?  I have tried to reboot by holding the home key and power button to power down.  The app is still grayed out and waiting so it cannot be deleted.  Also, I have tried to sync the apps from my laptop and tried downloading new appswith no success.  Can you help?  Thanks

    If there are multiple apps trying to download at once, only one can download at a time and the rest say "Waiting" until it is then their turn. Try this. Double tap the icon of the Waiting app, and it should resume the download.

    Another thing to try - Turn the iPad Off & then back ON.
    If that doesn't work:
    •  Log out of your iTunes store account.  Go to Settings > Store > Sign Out Then press the Home button.
    • Then press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously and don't release them when it brings up the Turn Off screen; keep holding them until the Apple logo appears.
    • After restart, the Waiting should be gone.

  • How do I stop the console from reporting errors on an application I have already deleted?

    Hi, I'm somewhat new at using macbook pros.  My macbook pro runs snow leoperd 10.6.8.  I just recently learned that console is a good way to check on what your computer is doing so i went in checked on it.  I noticed that a program i recently deleted called teamviewer was logged A TON.  There had to have been thousands of logs.  I had thought that I completely removed this application but it is constantly logging logs that look like this:
    3/4/13 9:17:04 PM com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[96] (com.teamviewer.desktop) Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
    3/4/13 9:17:13 PM com.apple.launchd[1] (com.teamviewer.service[4124]) Bug: launchd_core_logic.c:4194 (24498):2

    3/4/13 9:17:13 PM com.apple.launchd[1] (com.teamviewer.service) Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
    I would like to stop my macbook pro from doing whatever it is doing but I can't really understand technical talk so I have no idea what to do.  How do I stop my computer from doing whatever this is and completely delete teamviewer off of my computer?

    Sounds like you deleted the TeamViewer application, but did not uninstall the software, using whatever uninstaller is provided.
    In this case, it looks like you still have a LaunchAgent installed. In the Finder, choose Go -> Go to Folder and enter the following path:
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents
    In that folder, delete anything that has TeamViewer in the name. If you don't see anything there, try looking in this folder instead:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    After deleting from either of those locations, restart your computer.

  • How do I stop the Finder from seeing SMB (Windows) shares on the network?

    I have the OPPOSITE problem most people have -- Windows Sharing works TOO WELL.
    I've donated a refurbished eMac to the local homeless shelter. I figured I'd made the system secure, and prevented any monkey business. Turns out the windows machines on the network are COMPLETELY insecure (guest access to everything is enabled). The problem is that the Mac is TOO friendly -- it automatically connects to the server as a guest, and happily presents everything to the user.
    I've tried a dozen different things (I've removed the 'Shared' section from the sidebar in the Finder windows (Go->Network is still there, Doh.), tried to turn off File Sharing, and even disabled the mount_smbfs command in the /sbin directory with "chmod 0 mount_smbfs".)
    I've asked the folks there to call in a PC tech and fix their security problem -- but it's a good question to which I've found no suitable answer... How to I stop the Mac from connecting to SMB Shares on the local network?
    Thanks.
    -JD.

    Same problem, keep getting a pop up with connection failed you do not have permission to access the server. The server is a windows 7 box, Starting happening after an up grade to windows 7. Nowhere can I find how to stop trying to connect. I am sure its at the unix level of samba but what to do is another question

  • How do you stop 1.4 from importing??

    I recently installed LR2.3 on a machine with LR1.4.  I thought it would install over but it appears to have installed a completely seperate copy.
    The problem:  when I put a card in my reader, the Windows dialog box pops up for 'what do you want to do with this?'.
    If I select the LR2.3 icon, it pulls up LR1.4 instead!!  The icon definitely says 2.3.
    How do I stop 1.4 from importing and letting 2.3 do it?
    Right now I have to:
    Insert card
    Wait for 1.4 to come up
    shut down 1.4
    Bring up 2.3
    Import
    thoughts?

    I haven't had LR 1.4 installed over a year so I don't quite remember how it worked, but if it uses ADPProxy then you might find relief with the steps shown in this post:

    Then test to see if it solved the problem.

  • How do you stop mobile sites from loading in safari automatically on my iPad? I can't log into mobile me because of this.

    How do you stop mobile sites from loading in safari automatically on my iPad? I can't log into mobile me because of this.

    The me.com website is not designed for or intended to be accessed by iOS devices. Apple provides support in iOS or seperate Apps for accessing all aspects of MobileMe except for the Accounts section.
    Use MobielMe as intended and you'll have no problems.
    See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1673
    Even if you use a different browser to get access to me.com on iOS, you'll find most of it is unusable.
    Other websites that present you with the mobile version have been programmed to do so by their developers. They specifically look for users accessing from 'mobile' devices and switch to the mobile site. Many such sites provide a link to go back to the 'full' site, if not, there's not a lot you can do except use a browser that can pretend not to be a mobile browser.

    No, an external drive will not always be mounted. If the drive goes to sleep, it can unmount, or it may unmount for other reasons. As Chris said, confim that the drive is mounted and active before launching iTunes.
