How to turn the data off
I just got my first Blackberry Z10. I am experinecing extreme high data usage although Wi-Fi is available. How can I turn the data off to control my usage? can't find it...
IN your Settings (swipe down from the top bezel on the homescreen) > Network Connections> Mobile Network > your carrier > you can turn off data services and still retain WiFi data transmission.
However, as stated above, if WiFi is connected, it will always be the preferred data pipe even if the mobile network data is ON.

How to turn the 8900 off (completely) before boarding a plane
Is there an antenna On/Off feature? Thanks.
What I do to comply with FAA and airline regs in the US:
1. When asked to turn your device off by the crew, go to Manage Connections > Mobile Network, and UNcheck your carrier connection.
2. Press the RED key about 3-5 seconds until you are notified the device is powering down.
When you are in the air, and notified that electronic devices are ok to use,
3. Press the RED key again to power up the device. It will turn on with the radio OFF, which is what you want.
4. Upon being notified of landing or when asked by the crew, turn the device off again using the RED key.
5. When you land, turn the device on once again using the RED key, and then return to Manage Connections and re-enable your Mobile Network.

I want to turn the power off? Is this possible?
Alternate, undocumented power off option: Place under tire of parked automobile, start vehicle and drive fowward two feet.
Your welcome,
Dave
PS I have not been able to figure out the power on for this undocumented power off option. I do know it isn't: place iphone under rear of tire of parked automobile, start vehicle and drive in reverse two feet. I'll let you know when I have figured this out. -
Im planning on buying an iPhone. I dont want to get a data plan. Is there a way to make the iPhone only transfer data via wi-fi and not any of my cell phones networks?
In Canada, Fido will let existing customers buy an iPhone without a data plan if you choose to pay for data as you use it (a pay as you go data option) as long as your existing voice plan is at least $20 a month. While the friendly Fido guy said this is acceptable, he did caution that the iPhone constantly uses data (EDGE/3G/WiFi...whatever is available) to do all sorts of things in the background including synchronizing the clock and using numerous apps. So basically he said while it's possible to get an iPhone without a data plan he would strongly not advise it as data usage costs would be ridiculously expensive.
To my knowledge you can't shutoff cell phone data usage from the iPhone (besides turning off 3G or intl roaming) but would instead have to call Fido or Rogers and put a data block on your account. I'm not sure whether they would allow that on an iPhone plan though, but it never hurts to ask.

the music/pause sign is always there next to the battery sign. how do i turn it off?
I was wondering this too. The pause button is annoying BECAUSE when you switch the ipod back on it goes to the music page instead of the home page. If anyone knows how to get that pause button off the top without turning it off for 5+ minutes please let me know too (:

How Can Turn the Sound off When Leaving a Slide?
I have a slide with an FLV in it but the audio stays on when
I leave the slide. How do I fix that?
THXYou can't turn off the screen as such, but there are ways of playing the audio only from a movie.
On your iPod go to "Videos / Video Settings".
Then select "TV Out" and set it to "on". I think that works.
Or, you can access the video via the audio/music menu. For instance, if you have a video mixed in an audio playlist and you access it through that, you won't be able to see the video but you will hear the audio track. -
HELP PLEASE~How to turn the buzz off my iSight iMacG5...
Hi all,
I seriously need some help here. I've got my iMac 20" couple weeks ago, and it was quiet at first. I didn't hear the buzz sound coming from the middle left until maybe about 3~5 days. Now my roommate just got a 17" iSight iMac, which is whisper quiet. I still can hear the fan or air goes in and out from her machine but it is totally acceptable unlike mine...
I thought it was due to the upgrade to 10.4.3, so I reinstalled the OS again but the sound's still there. I then took it to a mac store to examine it. This evening a techincian told me it normally functions in a quiet room and he thinks everything's right, so I took it back but the sound's still there...
Few iMac 20" users here also have the same buzz problems like mine. I really hope it becomes as quiet as the first time I got it, so please let me know if you have any ideas to solve this...The buzz really annoys me especially when I don't hear anything from my roomate's...
Any input will be much appreicated. Thank you.Why don't try reseting the SMU here are the Directions on how to do it.
The SMU (System Management Unit) is a microcontroller chip on the logic board that controls all power functions for your computer. If your computer is experiencing any power issue, resetting the SMU may resolve it. The SMU controls several functions, including:
Telling the computer when to turn on, turn off, sleep, wake, idle, and so on.
Handling system resets from various commands.
Controlling the fans.
Note that resetting the SMU does not reset the PRAM. Resetting the SMU will not resolve issues in which your computer is unresponsive—in these situations, restarting your computer will generally suffice. If your computer isn't responding, perform these steps one at a time, in this order, until the issue has been resolved:
Force Quit (Option-Command-Escape).
Restart (Control-Command-Power).
Force Shut Down (press the power button for 10 seconds).
Resetting the SMU can resolve some computer issues such as not starting up, not displaying video, sleep issues, fan noise issues, and so on. If your computer still exhibits these types of issues even after you've restarted the computer, try resetting the SMU. To reset the SMU on an iMac G5 (Ambient Light Sensor) computer, simply do the following:
Turn off the computer by choosing Shut Down from the Apple menu, or by holding the power button until the computer turns off.
Unplug all cables from the computer, including the power cord.
Wait 10 seconds.
Plug in the power cord while simultaneously pressing and holding the power button on the back of the computer.
Let go of the power button.
Press the power button once more to start up your iMac.
Unlike earlier iMac G5 computer models, the iMac G5 (Ambient Light Sensor) and iMac G5 (iSight) computers do not have a button on the main logic board for resetting the SMU. This eliminates the need to remove the computer's back cover to reset the SMU.

How to turn the airport off when not in use
My airport network is currently running 24/7. I'm away from home a large part of the day. Is there a way to disable it, and then re-enable w/o unplugging it from the wall?
Thanks.Home Depot and Lowes have simple electronic timers that plug into the AC socket that will allow you to set auto ON/OFF times. The Express would plug right into the device.

how do I get data off my phone? when I plug phone into the wall and hold down the button i can get into photos and messages etc but when I plug into laptop it goes to recovery mode........therefore the data is not yet wiped? HELP! I got married last week on holidays and have not had a chance to save photos yet.
Hello there stidhambr15,
I was researching the issue you are having and recommend a couple of things. First it might be a good idea to reset the device following iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Turning off and on (restarting) and resetting found here http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
Resetting your device
Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
If that doesn't quite get the device going again, I recommend restoring the device.
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
Might even be a good idea to turn off the phone, reseat the SIM card, and turn it back on.

my ipad won"t turn off. there is a small window with an email text in it and it appears frozen on the screen. How can i turn the ipad off?
Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps BEFORE doing the reset.

How do you turn the cloud OFF on an iPhone 4s?
How do you turn the cloud OFF on an iPhone 4s? I don't use the cloud, but my phone keeps telling me there's not enough storage to back my phone up.
iCloud is probably being used to store your Contacts so perhaps you really just want to turn off iCloud backups. Use the Settings app.
Settings > iCloud > Turn off Backup
After you turn off iCloud backup be sure to initiate some other backup strategy. Backing up to iTunes is a good alternative. -
I lost the ability to use wifi after the 8.02 update. Is there a way to fix this? I've already tried resetting network. Turned the phone off and on. Nothing is working and now I have to run on just data.
csdwarf,
So sorry to hear about the trouble with Wi-Fi! Let's get that working the way it should. Could you provide us some more details regarding where this breakdown occurs? Are you having trouble with turning Wi-Fi on or connecting to your Wi-Fi? Are other devices connecting to your Wi-Fi without issue?

I have a Mac Pro OS 10.7.5 and have a DVD+R disc with files on it, but it ejects the disk after about 10 seconds--what to do? How can I get the data off this disc? I can see it has been already burned, so files are on there?
Try cleaning the lens and see if that will restore functionality to the DVD drive. Use a DVD lens cleaning disk, if you have a can of compressed air, shoot some into the slot or wrap a fine microfiber cloth (eyeglasses cleaning cloth) around a business card and insert it gently inside the slot.
If no success, make an appointment at an Apple store genius bar and get a free diagnosis from them.

My problem - when syncing and error messages comes up: iTunes could not sync calendars to the iPhone because an error occurred while margin data." I've tried turning the phone off and back on, & tried both USB ports but get the same thing. What can I do next since it doesn't give me even one clue as to what the error would be?
Before I started to resync calendars one by one as suggested in the troubleshooting article, I remembered something that came up in a sync when I first attempted : a 'which one do you want to keep' message about a repeating calendar event, which came up with three options, one from Calendar, and two from iCal on the phone. I deleted that event, then went through the calendar resync one by one, and all seems OK now.
In Music there is a way to find 'ghost' items that show up as grayed-out on the menus, so that you can try to reassociate or delete them. It would be nice to have a similar way to work with Calendar!
Thanks for pointing me to the right article. -
