How do you shut offf automatic updates

We just got 2 new phones and have already gone through 5g, what is eating up our data and how so we stop it. wifi is off.

For one thing, turn your wifi on and use it when ever you can. To keep your apps from using data while updating, Go to the play store, tap on settings (soft key left side of home button), click settings, click Auto-update apps, click Auto update over Wifi only. App updating uses a lot of data, so its best to use this feature only with wifi.

    Could some one explain how to switch off automatic updates on atv2.

    Chances are if you have modified AppleTV 2 software then the additions you have added will have an option to disable any updates.
    Specifically discussing jailbreaking/modifying AppleTV is prohibited by Apple.

    View running apps.
    Double-click the Home button to reveal the multitasking display. Swipe left
    or right to see more. To switch to another app, tap it.
    Quit an app.
    If an app isn’t working properly, you can force it to quit. Drag the app up from the

  • How do I turn off automatic updating for iPod on iTunes?

    I am about to buy the new iPod and I just recently downloaded iTunes 6 so I can actually have music on it when I buy it. Now I know it's possible, but I'm not sure how to turn off the automatic updates for the iPod. See I just want the songs on my computer long enough to put them on my iPod and then I plan to take them off. Any help would be appreciated.

  • HT1444 how do I turn on automatic updates in yosemite ?

    I have recently upgraded to Yosemite but I am unsure where/how you turn on 'Automatic Updates"? Any comment would be welcome please.

    Updates are in Mac App Store rather than Software Updater now. You'll see a red badge on the Dock icon when there are updates available.

  • How do you disable iPod Auto Update with iTunes?

    How do you disable iPod Auto Update with iTunes? I know there is a key press combo that will do it but I forget which keys. Anyone?

    Keep iTunes from automatically updating your iPod
    Another Easier Alternative:
    While connecting the iPod to the computer, hold down the Shift + Ctrl keys in Windows (CMD + Option keys on a Mac). This will stop the iPod from auto-syncing with iTunes. The iPod will then appear in the iTunes source list. Wait until you are sure the iPod has mounted, and that it will not auto-sync and then you can release the keys. This action may take between 3 and 25 seconds depending on your computer.
    You can then ‘right-click‘ on the iPod icon in iTunes’ source column and select iPod Options, then check the box that says “Manually manage songs and playlists”. You can now manage your library without losing any songs on the iPod.
    Note: If connecting to a different computer than the ‘iPod’s Home Computer’, iTunes will ask you if you want to update your iPod and give you an opportunity to opt out. This will not happen if you connect to the ‘Home’ computer – iTunes will auto-sync without warning!. Best to know the difference.

  • If firefox automatically updates my computer past 3.6 I'm inundated with Script Freezes..how do I stop new automatic updates?

    Everytime I'm automatically updated past 3.6 my computer is inundated with Script Freezes..especially on the email page of gmail.
    This has happened many many times. As far as I can determine these Script Freezes (Says: A script is attempting to write on this page.."Continue"..Stop Script etc) are coming from Internet Explorer (I'm not sure of this) and it's tricky to delete any elements of Internet Explorer. But at any rate my computer freezes up until the Script problem is settled..I check the don't ask me again block..but it does no good.
    My real question is: Since things work fine in 3.6...how can I avoid any automatic updates?
    Also, why isn't there a Timer Window (or a timer bar)for Firefox?...sometimes I have to wait 5 minutes for it to load! If there was a timer at least I'd know that something is happening and I'd be willing to wait. When it does take forever to load..it seems to help if I delete all Prefetch and temporary files.
    Is there a safe way of turning off Internet Explorer temporarily?
    Thanks for your help

    I tried this today, and it is working now:
    Click Firefox > Options > Options > Advanced ... then Uncheck the option "Use hardware acceleration when available"

    How do you load artworks automatically into the indeisgn CS3. Is it through a script or any other way.
    Thanks

    "artworks" is a bit vague...can you expand?
    File > Place is the usual way, but there are times when cut and paste is fine or better.
