How to totally turn off data traffic when using ma...

Nokia N8-00:
I only use the integrated gps and have turned off the assisted gps, net based gps and Wi-Fi/Network but when accessing maps it still generates data traffic.
Normally this is´nt a problem but when traveling abroad data traffic costs a small fortune.
In my old N95 when I downloaded offline maps and turned everything but integrated gps off there was no data traffic at all but even after the latest maps updates (i.e. yesterday) it appears that the maps still needs downloading when accessed...
Any suggestions how to completely avoid data traffic when using maps?

Set all destinations to always ask and select no whenever the phone gives you a request, set Maps to offline, and set location to just use intergrated GPS. By the way, just been to Portugal using Vodafone and data charges only about £5 for week, and they've just improved allowances, may be worth checking your service providers web site and see if it's necessary to bother about data roaming, they all tend to follow each other, and Data roaming charges in europe seem to be coming down !

  • How do you turn off Flash audio when using captivate Nav bar?

    Hi Guys and Girls
    I have an imported flash file that plays an audio track,
    I have no problem turning the audio off, when the user uses
    the button within the flash file to go to the next slide in the
    captivate movie...
    on(release){
    stopAllSounds();
    _root.rdcmndNextSlide = 1;
    BUT if the user decides to use the navigation bar within the
    captivate movie it all goes pair shape.. The flash audio continues
    to play into the next slide. Anyone have a know how to solve this
    problem?
    How do you tell flash to stop playing the audio when using
    the captivate navigation bar?
    (The flash file is a flip book and the audio NEEDS to stay
    within the flash file)
    Cheers

    Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! This totally solved my issue. I had a Captivate 4 movie using an embeded animation that had audio. It would play the audio again when the next slide appeared. I have to use Captivate 4, because my audience still uses Flash 7 (yikes). However, if you have Captivate 5 and are having this problem there is a widget that solves this issue: http://blogs.adobe.com/captivate/2010/11/animations-%E2%80%93-audio-sync-issue.html#commen t-3872

  • How do I turn off all alerts when using phone

  • How do I turn off the trackpad when using a mouse?

    Often, while using a mouse on my MacBook Air, the cursor will jump to a strange location, thus I am typing in an inappropriate place causing confusion as to where I am in an email, document, or other application. Is there a way to stop this from happening? It is very annoying. I think it's caused by a Trackpad issue.

    Hope the info from this thread helps.

  • How do I turn off data on my Extrovert 2?

    How do I turn off data on my Extrovert 2?  There is nothing in the settings to do this.  I am getting small data usage showing up even though I never go on the internet or access emails, and I have a pay per use data plan.  I don't really want any data plan at all, and didn't use to have one, but when I returned my defective phone, the rep who placed the order added a $10.00/month data plan, without my consent.  When I called to get it removed, the rep changed it to a "pay per use" plan.  I want things back to the way they were.  I don't want ANY data plan.  I only use the phone for calls and texts, and am not sure why small data amounts are showing up on some days, from .00001 to .00021 mg.

    You should be able to log into your on-line My Verizon account (assuming you're the Account Owner) and put a data block on the line, or call Customer Service and have them do it.

  • HT1807 I have an iPhone 3s.  How do I turn OFF data roaming?

    I am traveling in Mexico.  I have an iPhone 3s.  How do I turn OFF data roaming?  Under SETTINGS I don't see Network. I don'r see it under SETTINGS/General either.

    What you should do, if you don't want any nasty surprises, is put your phone in Airplane mode. That turns off all iPhone radios, but you can go back into settings & turn WiFi back on.
    Do not rely on the data roaming setting to protect you.

  • How can I turn off computer screen, when mirroring to apple tv?

    How can I turn off computer screen, when mirroring to apple tv?
    Thanks.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You can't. Mirroring is just what it says, it mirrors exactly what is on your computer screen, if there is nothing on your computer screen, that's what you will see on your TV screen.

  • How can I turn off "reply" button when the messages come? I prefer the "open" button.

    How can I turn off "reply" button when the messages come? I prefer the "open" button. Because my friends usually send lots of messages at the same time so I cannot read all of them when I press "reply", then I have to go to Messages -> my friends' messages, and it's really complicated.

    Sorry for not quite understanding. I guess you are referring to a notice in an alert. I do not have that alert active on my device, so I cannot say. I use the banner alert, so I just get a notice of a message and can swipe to open that particular message. If I ignore it, it will eventually go away.

  • How can I turn off my computer when I push de STOP button from de program?

    How can I turn off my computer when I push de STOP button from de program?

    You might also want to have a look at the old winutil>Windows API Function Utilities (32-bit) for LabVIEW. While they are written in LabVIEW 4.0 (!), they still seem to work fine under W2000 and LabVIEW 7.0. In particular, have a look at "exit windows.vi" inside "winevent.llb" of the above link. It calls the function "ExitWindowsEx" of user32.dll. Since this is part of the OS, you don't need to include extra DLLs.
    (All the above assumes Windows OS. I don't know how to shutdown the OS on e.g. MAC or linux.)
    LabVIEW Champion . Do more with less code and in less time .

  • Lg chocolate touch - how do I turn off data when traveling international?

    I m going to travel international and will not be using data and don't want to get high data charges abroad, so I want to disable data before I leave and re-enable when I return. How is that done on the LG Chocolate Touch? I did not see any references to turning off data is the user manual.
    Thanks.

        I understand your concern to bypass roaming charges! Please share your travel destination, so I may advise accordingly.  There is no option on your current device to simply disable/enable data.  I suggest not accessing any data, disabling any email account and subscriptions that automatically use data.  Thank you.

  • How do I turn off computer monitor when watching DVD movie on TV monitor?

    I think this is really a Leopard question because it involves setting up 2 monitors in System Preferences within OSX. 1) I have a wide screen TV connected to my iMac (Intel White Late 2006) through the Mini-DVI port and a separate audio cable. This connection works fine. 2) The purpose of the TV screen is only to watch DVDs using the DVD player and iDVD in my iMac. 3) In System Preferences->Displays->Arrangement, both my computer monitor and the TV screen appear as separate monitors. I have the setting to mirror each other. With this setting, the DVD movie plays on both the iMac computer screen and on the TV screen. 4) FINALLY, MY QUESTION: When watching a DVD on the TV screen, I would like to turn off the monitor in my iMac so that the screen is dark (in sleep mode to save power, etc.); I want only the TV screen to display the movie. How do I turn off only the iMac screen? Thank you. Dale

    That's impossible. It can only be done on a laptop but not on an iMac.

  • How can I turn off Recently Websites when opening new Safari window? After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed.

    How can I turn off Recently Visited Websites when opening new Safari window?
    After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed. How can I turn this function off? I do NOT want my new Safari windows to have history displayed of previous websites I visited. I only want my Favorites (on the top) to be displayed. Please help.
    Thank you for your time, patience, understanding, kindness, and concern.

    Thanks for replying, but that isn't the answer I am looking for.  Also, there is no + sign, UNLESS you do tap the overlapping boxes.
    Let me try to ask my question a little more clearly:
    When I tap the two overlapping boxes on the lower left (the option to Open New Windows), the new Window that appears will show your Bookmarked FAVORITES. But with my new iPhone 6, and the new iOS 8.0.2, when I tap the two boxes to open a New Window, my Bookmark Favorites show (as they always have and should), but below them, there is a dividing line underneath them, and it says Recently Viewed Websites, and has these websites available to tap.
    So my question is, HOW DO I TURN THESE OPTION OFF?
    *UPDATE  (10.13.14): Since I have asked this question, I no longer see these Recently Viewed Websites under my Bookmarked Favorites in my new Window tabs. So I hope that Apple fixed it, or somehow it was a mistake, or somehow I changed an Option on my iPhone 6 that stopped this for reoccurring.
    Thank you for your help bobseufert! I appreciate your concern, kindness, and the time to try to help. I am grateful.
    Have a blessed day.
