    My audio apps keep playing in the background after I answer a phone call. How do I turn this off?

    Hello BobWeaver,
    It sounds like we need to troubleshoot the software on your device as that is not expected behavior.
    I would perform steps 1, 3 and 5 from the iPhone Troubleshooting Assistant found here http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/assistant/phone/. If you get to step 3, then I suggest closing all the apps. Here is step 1 to get you started:
    Restart iPhone
    To restart iPhone, first turn iPhone off by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until a red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider and iPhone will turn off after a few moments.
    Next, turn iPhone on by pressing and holding the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Is iPhone not responding? To reset iPhone, press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least 10 seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If your device does not turn on or displays a red battery icon, try recharging next.
    Cheers,
    Sterling

  • I quit multiple tabs Firefox sent the warning prompt. As I was going to click save and quit I accidentally pressed the "save these settings". Now I jsut wonder, how do I turn it off, so that Fireox sends the prompt whenever I try to close multiple tabs?

    This might sound stupid, but once when I was about to quit Firefox, I got the warning prompt if I wanted to close multiple tabs.. As I was going to click save and quit I accidentally pressed the "save these settings". Now I jsut wonder, how do I turn it off, so that Fireox sends the prompt whenever I try to close multiple tabs? I'm running 3.6.6 with OS X Snow Leopard.

    You can reset the ''warn'' prefs on the '''about:config''' page via the right-click context menu.
    browser.tabs.warnOnClose , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/About%3Aconfig_entries
    browser.warnOnQuit , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnQuit
    browser.warnOnRestart , see http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.warnOnRestart
    To open the ''about:config'' page, type '''about:config''' in the location (address) bar and press the Enter key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website.
    If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page.
    In Firefox 3 you do not get the "Save & Quit" pop-up dialog if you choose Firefox > Preferences > General > Startup: "When Firefox Starts": "Show my windows and tabs from last time".
    To get the "Save & Quit" pop-up dialog you have to select one of the other choices (Show my home page,Show a blank page).

  • I have OPTED OUT of hot deals (and 2 others, the third will not let me its behind its window) and it will not turn off - how do I turn it off forever?

    You have an opt out option.
    THIS opt out option has a forever option.
    IT DOES NOT WORK.
    I have opted out forever on the stupid )(&**%^*&()*^ tab that occurs in the MIDDLE OF MY SCREEN, covering a THIRD of my screen (and at 62cm - this is over kill!) .... FAIL. (at least 4 times)
    I have opte dout forever on the stupid tab on the RIGHT side of my screen......FAIL.(at least 8 times)
    I am unable to opt out forever on the tab that appears on the bottom of my screen, as the opt out options appears BEHIND the window I wish to opt out forever of. (I call this EPIC fail.)
    When I am reading a story on line, I DO NOT WANT TO SHOP. If I am shopping in Amazon for a book, I will be reading about that book. IT IS ANNOYING TO HAVE TO CLOSE OUT WINDOWS EVERY TIME I SEARCH FOR A NEW BOOK - consider that I search/buy around 15 books at a time - after checking out maybe 50 that these tabs open over the TOP of.
    I also wish to get rid of the underlines with the green circle-thingy arrows that open pop up windows if I mouse over them. (there are 3 of them under this box I am typing in as I type, and nudging the mouse out of the way has opened up at least 4 stupid pop up windows - which I have blocked pop ups in the options...so WHY???????)
    I realise this can not be fixed on the spot, as it is going to require an actual programmer to fix it but please, pass this up to or over to whoever CAN fix it. I have used firefox since before patch 4 after it went live. I ADORED the old "you are F****d (etc" page you used to have that was directly opposed to internet explorers page not found - and I actually took the time to read it and had a terrible time stopping the laughter (at work of all places) when I did. I do not want to change browser, but these *features* do not enthrall me - especially since *features* should be optional, and turning them off should work.
    Thank you for your help, and I hope you have a great day/night and no more horribly painful people like me. <3 x o

    thankyou. THANK you.
    thankyouthankyouthankyou!
    sorry about no screenie but the first option worked (at least so far!)
    THANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOUTHANKYOU

  • How do I reset my original Icloud account on my new Iphone as my previous one broke but everything I need is on my origianl account??

    hello everyone
    unfortunatly my daughter broke me previous iphone which had my original icloud account with everything on it, my new phone has a newicloud account automatically made which has no data on it.
    i know the details of my previous account and have re added it to my new phone however even if it change my settings to that account it says that it is not my main account therefore my backe up data from the original one cannot be restored.
    my question is how do i make my original icloud account on my new phone my main and only one, i thougt that was the reason icloud was invented to be use as a whole on different phones.???
    thanks guys

    Did you delete the account that was automatically set up on your new phone before signing back into your old one?  If not, go to Settings>iCloud and tap Delete Account at the bottom.  Then set up your old account and turn your data syncing back to On.  (When prompted, choose Merge.)

    Hello banjobruce,
    You may need to verify that the correct Apple ID is signed in on your iPhone.
    iOS: Sign in with a different Apple ID in the iTunes Store, App Store, and iBooks Store

  • After each line of text and radio buttons are these squares with numbers inside them. How do I turn them off? Only on firefox does this display happen.

    Numbers seem to be in order. they look like modeling codes used when setting up a website.
    I did not have this problem until I upgraded to the new firefox update.

    Try to set the Boolean pref <b>gfx.font_rendering.directwrite.use_gdi_table_loading</b> to <i>false</i> on the <b>about:config</b> page to see if that helps.
    *http://kb.mozillazine.org/about:config
    Which numbers are in the boxes?
    If you see a box with hex code in it then that means that Firefox can't map a character to a specific font and you have to install a font that covers the affected characters.

    Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs.
    You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.
    Make sure that you update each program to get the latest version of the database.

  • My husband and I share an iTunes account. I just got a mac, but everything I send by message from the mac appears to come from his phone. How do I correct this?

    My husband and I share the itunes account. I just got an iMac. Everytime I send a message from my iMac, it appears to come from my husband's account phone number. Is there any way to fix this? Also, when I open iMessages, all the texts are from his phone (his text conversations).
    Thank you so much for your help!
    Myrna

    Try This:
    Open up the imessage app on your Imac.  Once you have it opened go to top left corner of your screen next to the apple picture and the word MESSAGES appears. Click on it then click on preferences and uncheck your husbands phone and number and or any other numbers which are checked. I had same problem this fixed it. Also if you wanted to you can open up your own Apple account, but that's not really necessary. My wife and I both share the same as you do

  • I don't know how I did it, but now when I am sending a text, the microphone takes over and is trying to speak what I am typing.  How do I turn it off?

    I don't know how I did it, but when I am texting, the microphone keeps coming on and tries to say what I am typing.  How do I turn this off?

    I suspect you have Voice Over on:
    Press Home.
    Tap Settings. Then double-tap Settings.
    Tap General. Then double-tap General.
    Use three fingers on the screen to scroll to Accessibility.
    Tap Accessibility. Then double-tap Accessibility.
    Tap VoiceOver. Then double-tap VoiceOver.
    Tap "On" next to VoiceOver. Then double-tap "On" to turn it off.
    You have to tap, then double-tap to select the numbers to enter your passcode.

  • When I paste something it then automatically is posted in my search windows, how do I turn that off?

    When ever I right click to copy something, and paste it somewhere, then the information automatically goes into my google search window, how do I turn that off?

    I am guessing that you installed an extension, related to "new tab", which added the first search bar. Firefox 31 in includes a search bar for the "new tab" page; so now you have two.
    Take a look at that extension (Options or Preferences) to see how to disable ones of those 2 search bars. Or see if an update has been released for that extension, specifically for Firefox 31, with an option to disable the search bar.
