How do i turn off the external speaker on my brand new iPod touch
how do i turn off the external speaker on my brand new iPod touch - it is very annoying
Just turn the volume fully down using the lower button on the upper left side of the iPod.
You can also go to Settings>Sounds to turn off alert and ringer sounds. -

How can I turn off the phone saying "Call from" #/name when getting incoming call before the ring tone starts? I have a LG accolade
I recommend checking your prompts and alerts to turn this feature off. This may be you "Call Connect" or "Readout" alerts. Listed below are steps to update this feature.
With the flip open, press the Voice Command Key (on the left side of the phone).The Voice Commands feature has several settings which allow you to customize how you want to use it. Access Voice Commands, then press the Right Soft Key[Settings]. Your choices are below:
-Confirm Choices--- Automatic/Always Confirm/ Never Confirm
-Sensitivity--- Control the sensitivity as More Sensitive/ Automatic/Less Sensitive
-Adapt Voice ---If the phone often asks you to repeat voice command,train the phone to recognize your voice patterns.Train Words/ Train Digits
Prompts ---Mode/ Audio Playback/Timeout
* For Mode, set Prompts/ Readout+ Alerts/ Readout/ Tones Only.
* For Audio Playback, set Speakerphone or Earpiece.
* For Timeout, set 5 seconds or 10seconds. -
Someone is trying to access the text messages that have been deleted off of my phone thru an app (unknown app)
I do have somethings that I want to remain private in my phone and I either need help to delete them for good. Or block themLet me rephrase that. They can't unless they had physical possession of your phone and installed spyware on it.

It seems that once I backed up my iPhone and iPad to the cloud, whenever I did subsequent back-ups or syncs, it transferred all the photos to my iPhone. Now I can't delete them (no trashcan visible). I don't want all 430+ photos synced when I activate my new iPhone. How do I get rid of unwanted photos?
HELP!It will remove all. If you don't want to remove all then leave the box checked, but then uncheck the photos you want removed. It will remove the ones that are UNCHECKED.
It might be easier to remove all, then sync the ones you want the same way to the new phone. -

I was using help from apple to correct a software problem which they were able to fix but somehow i got thousands of pictures moved from my macbook pro over onto my phone. I am not able to delete them from my phone as i can only see edit but i can't find an option of delete or trash to use to get rid of them. For some reason there are pictures there that are not even mine that i desperately would like to get off my phone but can't figure out how to delete when they are in albums and large quantities. I know how to delete when they are on camera roll as the trash can appears at the bottom of the picture. Please help me so i don't have to go back for support tomorrow on the phone. I was on for hours today. . .but they did fix my original issue.. i just can't figure this one out.

When I want to send a new email I click on file and then new message. Somehow, and I dont know how I have done this, it has gone into the full screen mode. I cant find in the right hand top corner the two arrows, pointing in opposite directions,to minimise the screen back to its "normal" position. Its very frustrating . I cant find anything other than the full screen. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you
Apple Windows Linux the menus for this are all the same. However it your talking getting rid of the apple menu. Then that is really an apple issue.

When I receive an SMS message, how do I find out the phone number it came from?
When I receive an SMS message from a person in my address book, the Messages app in my iPhone shows the name of the person who sent the message. At the top of the conversation, I can tap the word "Contact", which brings up the Contact's name, a phone icon, a camera icon, and a letter i in a circle. If I tap the i, it brings up the sender's record from my address book. How do I know which of the sender's multiple phone numbers is the number that he sent the message from?

WRT54GL - needs a set-up change or how can I turn off the wireless connection ?
I've got this router configured as a switch and it's working great with one exception:
The Wireless network, when turned on, takes precedence over the ethernet network (which is 2x faster).
Is there any way within Windows to be able to switch the wireless network "off".
When I try to click "disable" on the wireless network connection status message box, I get:
"It is not possible to disable this connection at this time. This connection may be using one of more protocols which do not support plug n play, or it may have been initiated by the user or the system account"
I guess I have to turn it off at the router level then ? See, I only really needed wireless to talk to my stupid wireless-only HP Envy printer....which I only need to do intermittently.Try to disable the wireless adapter on the Device Manager window. Go to Start > Control Panel> System > Hardware > Device Manager > Network Adapters. You can then right click the wireless adapter there and select disable. If it is still not possible, you’ll have to access the router then and disable the SSID Broadcast. See below:

How do you shut off the opening page of Mozilla's new features?
im getting really pissed off not being able to stop 2 pages from opening when i click on my firefox browser. one page which I want to open up is my yahoo.com page, the other is your new mozilla add ons page. its annoying and im about to stop using Mozilaa because of it. its ridiculous that we can stop it from loading everytime I open my browser. ive tried so many things to stop it. please help and thank you for your time
kevinDo you mean the regular Add-ons page (the one that opens when you press Ctrl+Shift+a) or a page for a specific add-on?
Do you get the unwanted page when you launch a new window (Ctrl+n)?
If so, that can indicate either:
* Your settings list two home pages. These articles will help in clearing that up:
** [[Startup, home page and download settings]]
** [[How to set the home page]]
* One of your add-ons is showing the new page.
If the extra page does NOT appear in a new window, could you test using your Firefox desktop icon a second time without closing Firefox? This should launch a new window.
If THAT new window has the unwanted page, your Firefox shortcut might be hacked. You can check by right-clicking it > Properties > Shotcut tab. The Target for 64-bit Windows 7 should be no more and no less than the following:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Mozilla Firefox\firefox.exe"
If THAT new window does NOT have the unwanted page, Firefox may be showing a "one time" page and failing to record that it has showed the page, so it keeps doing that one time action at every startup. Have you noticed Firefox having problems remembering any other settings changes? This article has a range of suggestions for addressing this kind of issue: [[How to fix preferences that won't save]]. -
The first time I synced my iphone 4 with my mac, I didn't realize that all of my photos from the iphoto library would transfer over to the phone (more than 3,000). Now, I need to remove some, as they are taking up too much space. I cannot figure out how to remove them from the phone. I tried to uncheck boxes and sync again, but I get a message that there is no room on the iphone. I've read as many articles as I can find, but still cannot manage this. Thanks for any help.

How do i turn off the service searching?plz read
Ok so I was stationed to Iwankuni Japan and of course my awesome iphone doesn't work out here :'-( how can i turn off the phone part so that i can still have my wifi on and it isn't searching for service?
pretty much i want to make it an ipod touch.
Any ideas?Hi there,
Just put it into Airplane mode: settings> airplane mode on
This will also disable Wi-Fi and Bluetooth though. To avoid this, take out the SIM card; then you'll have Wi-Fi, and all the non-phone features. Use a paperclip to press on the hole next to to the earphone recess; press firmly and the SIM card tray will pop out. Make sure you put the SIM card somewhere safe, away from magnetic sources. When you return home, simply put the SIM card back in; and you'll resume normal service, with no need to activate again.
