IOS8 Continuity calling, o2, UK - How to turn it off
Hi All,
I've seen the suggestions about switching off cellular calls on an iPad to stop it ringing under continuity, however, my problem is different. In my home there are 4 iPhones and 2 iPads. I have a works and personal mobile, one for the wife and one for my son. All used to be setup under my apple ID so all rang at the same time when we are all at home when we updated to ios8. I've set up new apple ID's on the works phone and my wife's phone now to stop the problem, but it does cause another issue with App updates, you get the following message when trying to update on either of these (both are included fully on the family sharing):
The apps are all still on the original iPhone, and as it happens, are all free apps.
Using different apple ID's does solve the continuity calling problem, but I've also seen many users advise to turn off cellular calling in FaceTime. This seems to be fine for an iPad, but what about 4 iPhones? The option screen to turn off cellular calling in FaceTime setting is simply not there on an iPhone.
Probably a daft question, but would a simple button to "enable continuity calling" not be a sensible idea? I mean it is a great feature if it suits your home or office, but if it doesn't, i'd like to be able to keep things simple under one apple ID over multiple devices and just switch off continuity on the devices I didn't want to use it on.
Am I missing a setting or process to fix this matter another way? Any help appreciated.
There is one as you already know. Turn off Settings > Facetime > iPhone Cellular Calls
But since the whole point of continuity calling is to be able to access your cellular calls on non-iPhone devices when the iPhone is elsewhere, having that option for an iPhone makes no sense. Using the same iCloud account for multiple people is messy at best. This is why Apple give you the ability to set up individual Apple IDs for iCloud services and a common Apple ID for purchases. Family Sharing now allows a more seamless way to do that without configuring multiple Apple IDs on each device.

When I open iTunes it will automatically go to full screen mode. I can't work out how to turn this off. Only iTunes opens to full screen mode.
Go to System Preferences (under the Apple logo in the menu bar). Choose "General". Click "Always close windows when quitting an application".
That should fix it. -

Are you recovering Lion or later Time Machine backup with a Lion or later machine?
If you are, then use this article:
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4718
Other Time Machine restore options are here:

Note, if recovering from a PowerPC Mac (iMac G5, PowerMac, Mac Mini G4, iBook, Powerbook), this tip is important:

Otherwise use the recommended restore option with whatever backup software you used initially. -

I can't seem to turn off my assistant. It talks to me constantly (or on mute) and it goes through each box individually. This makes it difficult to navigate myself through pages. Please, if you know how to turn it off, help.
In 10.6 or earlier go to: Apple / System Preferences / Universal Access and turn off Voice Over.
In 10.8 go to: Apple / System Preferences / Accessibility / VoiceOver and uncheck the box for Enable VoiceOver. -

I just learned how to listen to music on my Apple Radio Station, now please tell me how to turn it off! I had to turn off the phone to make the radio stop playing!
As when stopping the play of a song with the music app.
There is a pause button and a fast forward button to the next song above the volume level indicator at the bottom. Select the pause button which will turn to a play button. When wanting to start playing again, press the play button. -

Why are search queries automatically cleared from search bar? How to turn this off?
Every time I search, the search bar query automatically clears itself 5-30 seconds later. I find this annoying and am just trying to determine if it is a FF feature or an add-on and how to turn it off.
Maybe this extension: Second Search 0.7.2012122901
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do NOT click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

I'm getting a bell sound every minute, and don't know how to turn it off.
I just fixed it! I believe it was my Time Machine Connection. I have a wireless connection to a NAS storage device (MyBookLive), which was not working properly. I fixed it yesterday, and after time machine was downloaded, the bell went away. I think Time Machine was trying to work every minute, and gave an alert when it couldn't. Does this sound plausible?
