How to keep s4 on wifi and not network

I need to know how to keep my S4 on wifi and NOT go into netwrok, wanting to be alerted or no connection if no wifi, otherwise if it goes into network, it will cause me a veryyyyyyyyyy large bill (internet usage). SO how can I get my S4 wo NOT allow me to use apps unless there is wifi available? My husband is taking this phone over and I have a new one lol

New to the world of smart phones and currently using a S5. If the S4 is the same, in addition to info in post 1:
settings /data usage /scroll down and select app /scroll down/ select "restrict background data".
I believe this restricts the apps' access to data (like the app updating itself) even when data is on. I use WiFi to update. But like I said, I'm new so no guarantee.

How to keep apps for later and not have iTunes prompt for an update?

can I get iTunes to stop offering me an update for an app I have unchecked for now but am not ready to delete permanently? I have some I bought that, for now I don't wish to use. Some are organizational apps, and I bought them to see if they would work for me. So far, I am still not clear which one works best for me so I want to keep it in my itunes library, to try later, when I have more time. I have unchecked it on my iphone and ipad and for when I sync, but when I check updates, they are always listed in the update list. With them there, I cannot check, update all, and have to type in my password for each individual download, which as we all know, on an iphone, if you have a good password to keep your itunes account from being hacked, can be a pain to type repeadly. But basically, I want to know if I can avoid being prompted to download and update for an app that I which to 'keep on the shelf' for now, since I believe that if I delete it from itunes permanantly, I would have to buy it again, should I want to try it out again.
I appreciate any help you can give me. I did do a search for my question but only found how to permanately delte apps in itunes. If there is a clear answer in a thread, I'd be happy to know what it is.
Thank you,
Michelle

As with your iPod when connected to iTunes, the iPhone has various tabs for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes. Your iPod and your iPhone can have different sync preferences.
If you don't want to transfer any music to your iPhone, don't select Sync Music under the Music tab for your iPhone sync preferences. If you don't want to sync any video to your iPhone, don't select sync Movies and TV Shows under your iPhone sync preferences.
Under the Applications tab for your iPhone sync preferences, you will select Sync Applications with the following options below.
All Applications to transfer all available applications to your iPhone, or choose Selected Applications followed by selecting the applications in the window below that you want transferred to your iPhone followed by a sync.

If Join was on then your home wi-fi must be set to Non-Broadcast. If you did not set this up (maybe your provider did) then you will need to find the Network Name they used, and any password they used. The SSID is Security Set ID and to see more try http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/SSID . Basically it is the name used to identify your router/network. A lot of times the installer will leave it set as LinkSys, or Broadcom or whatever the manufacturer set it as for default. Your best bet is to get whoever installed it to walk you through how they set it up, giving you id's and passwords so you can get in. HOWEVER, if you are not comfortable with this (if you set security wrong, etc.) you would be well ahead of the game to hire a local computer tech (networking) to get this working for you. You can also contact the vendor of your router and get help (if it is still in warranty), or at least get copies of the manuals as pdf files. Sorry I can't give you more help, I hope this gives you an idea where to go from here to find more.

Please Advise On The Best Way To Keep Your Battery Healthy And Not Deformed

I am a black macbook (mb) user and have had my mb for 37 months now. after a year and a half, my battery (the first one) was deformed and i was advised to replace it quickly. i was also advised to calibrate my battery occasionally and so i did after that. but in just over a year after i replaced my battery, it is starting to deform and swollen. i have been following the advice and calibrated my battery as advised. my battery is still in normal condition according to the system profiler.
when i first bought my macbook, i was told NOT TO keep recharging my battery whenever i used it and the battery drains because this would make the battery's life shorter. i was also told it is OKAY to have the power plugged in. and so i did that. but it turned out that my battery had deformed from it. most probably from the heat but i don't know.
i use my macbook regularly. i keep it switched on almost 24 hours a day and i keep it well ventilated (i sit it on top of iLap) because i have my internet on 24 hours a day and use the internet regularly. i am not planning to replace my battery just yet even though the battery capacity has gone down to 77%. it's expensive here. i will keep on continuing with the calibrating every now and then. now it might be the magsafe's problem that the battery is deforming too soon. one time, the magsafe fell from my bed onto the floor quite hard. and since then it wasn't working properly. sometimes it heats up and it becomes too hot to hold for long. at times the battery would say 0:00 (time left charging) but the light doesn't change to green so i have to plug it out from my mb and from the main plug and rest it for about 10 seconds and then it runs as normal. i know i probably need to change the adapter soon.
anyway, i'm just asking. for someone who uses his mb regularly or everyday and almost 24 hours a day, what is your best advice on how to keep the battery healthy and in good condition for a long period of time?
sorry for the rambling but thank you.

Does Anybody know how to keep the license files and Certificates in ISE-3315 During the upgrade.

Hi,
I have two ISE-3315 Appliances in production network.
I need someone's help to explain, how to make the Secondary node as the primary admin note to reset-config.
And then I would like to know how to keep the license files and Certificate during the Upgrade.
Please help me to answer my questions.
Thanks

The Cisco Identity Services Engine (ISE) provides distributed deployment of runtime services with centralized configuration and management. Multiple nodes can be deployed together in a distributed fashion to support failover.
If you register a secondary Monitoring ISE node, it is recommended that you first back up the primary Monitoring ISE node and then restore the data to the new secondary Monitoring ISE node. This ensures that the history of the primary Monitoring ISE node is in sync with the new secondary node as new changes are replicated.
Please Check the below configuration guide for Secondary ISE- Nodes.

How does iPad choose between wifi and 3G when both are 'on'?

Easy peasy question.
I have 02 and Wifi going on my iPad. I know I can use 02 out and about and I know I can use wifi at home etc.
But when I'm at home how do I make sure I'm using my wifi for data and not my cellular connection???
I've been turning my cellular to 'off' when at home, just in case, but I don't want to have the faff of turning it off and on, so it would be nice to know how the iPad chooses between wifi and 3G when both data access points are active.
Also I've had no wifi troubles at home at all. so far... The acid test will be setting it up at work as they have proxyies for everything, but obviously I don't have proxies at home. I'm not sure if the settings screen can cope with different proxies dependent upon different wifi networks... * grin *

In the status bar I have
a signal strength indicator then 'O2-UK' then the 'fan' No mention of 3G.
I'm guessing you're going to say that when 3G is showing then 3G is being used for data?

When do I know if my iphone will switch to wifi and not that it costs some money to my phone network operator? is there a spec setting I must do. Or is it enough to have the phone set to wifi and phone connects directly when it makes contact with a wifi n

Thank you again for all of your help!! I really appreciate it!
I think I am following -- I was able to upload to my iPhoto and all photos and videos are there that is a plus! I tried to create an Event in my iPhoto and put all of my photos in that event but for some reason, now my iTunes it not recognizing that Event in my iPhoto. It is not allowing me to import just that event at the moment but I may be doing something wrong. At least all of my pics and vids are in iPhoto so that is a plus and I know they are at least saved somewhere. Just for some reason, my iTunes it not locating the event that I created with only those photos.
Thank you for letting me know about my contacts! How do I know if I have the contacts app?
Also, I had no clue that my iCloud could be backed up via cellular data! However, is this a new feature with the most updated iOS?? Unforutnatly I am like 2 iOS updates behind because I don't have enough storage on my phone. I still get the notification that my phone needs to be plugged in and connected to wifi in order to back up to the cloud :-(
How can I sync using USB? Right now when i click on the info tab for my iPhone in my iTunes this is the answer that I get -- I am a little unclear as to what it means.

Your contacts are being synced with you iPhone over the air from iCloud. Over-the-air sync settings can be changed on you iPhone

Hi barryfromwarrington,
Welcome to the Support Communities! There are two things I can think of to keep your Stepdad's information separate from yours on the computer and the iPad. On the computer, he should have his own administrative account, and on the iPad he needs his own Apple ID for iTunes and iCloud services. Here is some basic information to get started. I don't know if you have a Mac or Windows computer, so I'll include info for both.)

http://support.apple.com/kb/PH18891
OS X Yosemite: Set up users on your Mac
If your Mac has multiple users, you should set up an account for each person so he or she can personalize settings and options without affecting other users.
Add a user
Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, then click Users & Groups.
Click the lock icon to unlock it, then enter an administrator name and password.
Click Add below the list of users.
Click the New Account pop-up menu, then choose a type of user.
administrator: An administrator can add and manage other users, install apps, and change settings.
Enter a full name for the new user. An account name is generated automatically. To use a different account name, enter it now—you can’t change it later.
Enter a password for the user, then enter it again to verify. Using a password hint is recommended to help the user remember his or her password.
Click Create User.
For an administrator, select “Allow user to administer this computer.”

I recently purchased a second hand new macbook air, although it was second hand to me the previous owner had never actually turned it on.
Something doesn't make sense here, though I'm not saying the previous owner is lying....
Time to send your serial # to iTS and let them see what's happening here.

You can't reformat it and not wipe everything on it.
Have you tried a different USB port?
Only other option, back it up on a different computer.
