How do I use my Iphone 4s camera while on a cruise, yet not receive texts and calls and ultimately , the charges?

Hi!!!   My family is going on a cruise this summer.  I do not want to but any internet plan on board or through verizon, as it can get quite costly with
two teenage daughters.  But, we will be using our phone cameras.  How do I block calls and texts, yet still use the camera? And does blocking them still result in no charges..roaming, international, on board, etc.?  Thanks for all advice and answers!!!

Another option you may have is to temporarily suspend service...that would guarantee you won't have any charges for unexpected texts/calls. Might be a little more extreme then you want to do though. Contact VZW for more details on that option if interested. I would echo the idea of just using a camera versus your iPhone unless for some reason you don't own an actual point and shoot camera. You can easily put the pics on your iPhone when you return home from your trip if that is the reason you were really wanting to use the iPhone for picture taking.

    How can I use 2 iPhone 4's on same iTunes account, but NOT sync same contacts?

    They need to be registered under different Apple ID's.  The initial Apple ID is set when you first start the phone up.  If you've already registered the phone to the iTunes account, back it up to your computer, and then have iTunes do a factory reset.  Go to www.icloud.com, log in with your current Apple ID, select "Find My iPhone," choose the iPhone you want to dissociate from your primary Apple ID from the upper left, and then click the little circled X ("remove").
    When you start the phone, it will have you go through the setup process again, at which time you need to create a unique Apple ID for the device.  You can then restore it from your iTunes backup to get back your apps and other settings.
    Whenever you use the iTunes store, use the login information (Apple ID and password) that you were using before.  Basically, the second Apple ID that you created is purely used for accessing iCloud services, which includes synchronization of contacts, iCal events, and other such things.

    How doo I get my iphone 4s to remind me once that i have a text message?

    Apart from the "text tone" that you can select from SETTINGS - SOUNDS, you can also customize the reminder/notification in SETTINGS - NOTIFICATIONS - MESSAGES
    You can choose the alert style; number of times it would alert you (Max 10 times) and select to view the message in locked screen.

  • How do I use my iphone 4S wifi on my laptop via USB cable

    Any help would be gratefully appreciated.

But thank you for responding.

    How do I use my iPhone 5 as a router for my iPad?

    Yep, as stedman has helpfully proffered a link on HowTo.
    Once the personal hotspot is up, you can connect a reasonable number of devices to gain Internet access. The iPad can hook up either via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth. If you have a computer, you also have the choice of a wired connection as well.

  • How do i use an iphone 5 as an ipod

    how do i use an iphone 5 as an ipod

    Lawrence, any idea why this article now has the designation of being "archived" and "no longer updated by Apple"? Is it because there's nothing left to add or update at this point or because it's no longer required to swap SIM cards? (I don't know if that's true just trying to figure it out.)
    I didn't take out my wife's original SIM card in turning her iPhone 4s into an iPod Touch for my son and almost everything has gone smoothly except for two things:
    Facetime had a few issues at first but I've straightned them out.
    I still see "activation" error messages after restarting. This I'd like to get ironed out because it's annoying, so is the best course of action still to take out the old SIM, put in the SIM from my wife's new iPhone, restore the old one with new SIM in it, and then once everything is set up correctly return the new sim to the new phone?
    I think if I understood more clearly why this SIM swapping is necessary, I would be able to answer some of my own questions.

    How do I use an IPhone 4S (I purchased in Tokyo ) in Mumbai! It's locked. The carrier there was SoftBank and I have cleared all my dues with them. They refused to unlock it at the time of termination of contract. Now I'm in dire straits .......do not want to spend o buying another one when there are already two lying at home. Please help

    Sell the devices you currently have to someone that can use them with the carrier they are locked to.  Put those funds towards the purchase of a device that you can utilize with the carrier of your choice.

    Hi, we have two iphones with two accounts.  The apple tv automatically syncs with one account to play music from the iphone to apple tv.  How can I use my iphone to do the same?

    Our experience is a little different, we have different iTunes accounts for different family members, each family member has their own iTunes library on their own mac, each mac uses my Apple ID for homesharing and we are able to play purchased content from each library on the Apple TV.

  • How do I use my iphone 4s for gps - do I need an app?

    I'm a new smartphone user. How do I use my iphone 4s for gps - do I need an app - which one is best...prefer free of course...does it work from home or do I have to be on the road to access gps function?  Thanks!!

    There is a built in GPS and map function that provides basic navigation using Google Maps. It's hard to miss right there on the home screen. However, it is maunal; you have to tap "next" when you reach each waypoint, and it does not provide spoken directions. It also downloads maps in real time, so it can be slow if you have a slow data connection, and it uses a lot of data if you are on a limited data plan. It is excellent for walking and public transportation, less useful in a vehicle unless you have a navigator sitting in the car.
    There are several commercial GPS apps that you can buy from the App Store, but no free ones. Just search the App Store for "GPS".

    You have two choices: 1. Get your phone officially unlocked, then purchase local sims in Europe...cheap, or 2. Put your phone in Airplane Mode, then go back into settings & turn WiFi on.
