I turned on magnifier on my 4S and can't shut it off.

I can't even sign in because the magnification is too large to see where I am. I shut off the phone and restarted but nothing changed. I used one of the Tips to turn on the magnifier just to see how it works and now I'm stuck I have installed the latest software updates. Help!

I was actually just solving the problem when I got your reply. Because I couldn't unlock my phone I couldn't use the tapping. I found that by connecting my iPhone to iTunes through my computer I could access the accessibility control on my phone where I shut off the zoom feature. Thanks for your help.

I bought a used iPod touch and now the previous owner has turned on find my phone. How can I shut it off

so ya I bought my daughter a new iPod touch for her birthday from the pawnshop. They said it's been put through the police data base and is not stolen(protocol ?). I took it home and put it away. Her bday is now next week and I got it out to put a cool wallpaper in it and charge it up. Turns out the previous owner has now turned the find my phone app on , so I can't do anything with it now? is it possible to factory reset it? I feel like I got screwed big time:( i hope someone has an idea foe me cause i am totally illiterate when it comes to technology.

Return it and get a refund. Without the prior owner's Apple ID and password that device is useless. Find My iPhone Activation Lock- Removing a device from a previous owner’s account. You were screwed by the ignorance of the pawn shop owner.

No keys work and can't shut computer off

My computer just quit functioning properly tonight. The battery is charged, the screen lights up appropriately, and the mouse moves (but when I click, nothing happens It is stuck on "Mail" at the top of the screen but I can't quit by any of the usual ways. I can't even turn off the computer with the power button or by any other way. I inserted the Install Disk that came with the computer, hoping I could restart with. However, I hear it spinning but the icon doesn't show on the screen. (Computer is about 6 months old.)

Press and hold the power button for about 5-7 seconds, this should turn the machine off, if not remove the power lead and battery to power it down.
Re-insert the battery and power lead then perform a Parameter RAM reset on the restart i.e. press the Power button then immediately hold down the apple/option/p/r keys and wait for three chimes before releasing them.

Did you try rebooting the iPad? You will need to have some battery power for this.
Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

I put a vacation alert on my text and can't take it off.

I put a vacation alert on my iPhone 4 text and can't take it off. Help!

Try:
- iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
- Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
- If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
- If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

I have a Mac G4 double mirrored model and everytime I shut it off it will not go on when I hit the power off button. However, if I unplug and plug in the power cord it boots fine and everything is OK. The PMU and logic board have been reset. Any ideas?

I have a Power Mac G4 double mirrored model and everytime I shut it off it will not go on when I hit the power on/off button again. However, if I unplug and plug in the power cord it boots fine and everything is OK. The PMU and logic board have been reset. Sometimes my Mac goes on just by pressing the power on button but most times I have to pull the power cord and put it back in. Any ideas or help out there for this? Could it be a failing power supply? Apple Care says that this model is obsolete so there is no help from there. John

Hi John,
That's often a sign of a bsad Capacitor in the Power Supply, but...
Might be time to replace the PRAM Battery, 4 years is close to their lifespan, far less if ever without AC power, & can cause strange startup problems...

Iphoto has been importing photos for over an hour and i can't get it to stop. can't stop importing and can't shut down computer.

iphoto has been importing photos for over n hour and I can't get it to stop. Can't get out of iphoto and can't shut down computer.

iPhoto works best when the source (Pictures folder) is on a different disk drive than the iPhoto Library is on.
And you need to have enough free disk space to work with, the faster the better.
Also, do not keep your media folders and those in your home folder on the same drive as the system, also another bottleneck.
Until or unless you have everything on 1400MB/sec SSD PCIe controller, you want
System boot drive
Media and data folders and such
scratch
backup
etc
I put iPhoto on an SSD off an SSD PCIe Sonnet Tempo card
If you stop- it, you will need to trash the Library it was creating.
Reading and writing to/from the same hard drive will be slow.
You don't mention which Mac, or how large you are trying to import etc
Also the support page and link to the iPhoto Commuinity is off this page:
http://www.apple.com/support/iphoto
Take a look in Activity Monitor. See what the % being used for iPhoto, how many pageouts, how much free space on the various disk drives, and how much RAM do you have installed?

My iPhone 5c froze while I updated. And now I can not shut it off. No buttons respond.

It has been frozen for two hours. Can not shut it off, or something else.

Reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not work, connect in recovery mode to your computer, explained in this article:
If you can't update or restore your iOS device

I've resolved my problem now. It wasn't iphoto: preferences:@ that I needed but iphoto:preferences:general where there is the option to choose email for sending photos. Can't believe I missed that before.

Stupid iPad demands security check after confirming install of new app? Why and can I shut that of somehow my password should be enough!

Stupid iPad demands security check questions after confirming install of new app? Why and can I shut that of somehow my password should be enough!

Judging by the number of successful password hack attempts on internet accounts of all types, clearly password security alone is not enough to verify you are the account holder to a dumb computer.
I'm sure you'd be complaining even more about "stupid iPad" if it allowed anyone who obtained your password easy access without any kind of backup security checks, and spend money on your iTunes / App Store account.
Apple are actively increasing the security of people's valuable iTunes accounts, not decreasing it. Why would you want to make it easier for someone to steal from you and take over your online accounts?

My 4s does not ring, alert, play music randomly shuts off and on and when i shut it off it turns on by itself...can anyone suggest anything?

Hi, I have a the 4s i have had it for a couple months...never any problems. When i went to use it the other morning...before the update I noticed I had some missed calls and text messages - the phone had not rang or alerted me. I checked the volume in settings and also that the switch on the side was on for sound. But when I touched it the vibrate on/off screen kept flashing on my phone. I can only hear the phone ring through my aux wire and headphones. It does not ring from the bottom...nor does it play music or any video noise. It does play my alarms. I tried to shut it off before and after i restored it and it would restart on its own...and then I would have to enter my WIFI password again. Does anyone have a suggestion?

Do a reboot by holding both the power and home buttons until the apple logo appears, ignore the red slider if that appears. If that does not help, take it to an Apple store genius bar for the techs to check.

Bluetooth "discoverable" and can't switch that off!

Hello all,
I've never seen this: my bluetooth was ok, I had it on but not discoverable. Now, I just tried having my phone seen - no ^problem there. For some reason I had turn the discoverable on.
I can't switch it off now! I click the tick to make it not discoverable, a second later it's back on!
My computer is now discoverable all the time.
I tried trashing the bluetooth plists, restarting, the usual.
No result.
please help me!

I dont know whats happened but...
I'd try plugging it into your PC and see if itunes recognises it, from there maybe try a sync of some stuff; or if that doesnt work try a restore.
Failing that, wait until the battery runs out, watching a film whilst using the internal speaks on full is a good way to burn through the juice, and see how it behaves after fully charging.
Do the buttons work at all? Can you tell us what FW your running?
hope you get it working.

I turned on magnifier on my 4S and can't shut it off.
