Is it okay to cover the cellular antennae

I am considering using a Luvvitt Silverback skin to protect the backside of my iPad 4 with cellular service.  Luvvitt support informed me that it is okay to cover the antennae with the skin and that it would not affect my service.  However, prior to just installing it I wanted to find out if anyone has had experience with covering the cellular antennae with a skin.  It sould be great is someone has experience with the Luvvitt Silverback.
Thank you,

I don't have any experience with covering/not covering the cell antenna on an iDevice. With that being said, case manufacturers will usually know something about their product. They have to comply with certain guidlines when it comes to covering critical components. I would assume that what tech support are saying is true & that the skin would have no effect on the antenna operation...after all, they have a product to sell and if it impedes the operation, it won't sell. Maybe you'd have some luck looking up the item in question on Amazon.com and read the reviews from other users there. However, if you want to wait for a valid reply from someone who has actually used the product here on these forums, by all means do so.

  • Is it okay to COVER the new laser printer when it's not in use?

    Just bought a Color Laser Jet Pro MFP model M177 laser printer which has to be located in a place that has a lot of dust and pet hair.  I keep it turned off anytime I'm not using it. I want to cover it with a plastic printer cover that would go over the entire printer. Is there any reason NOT go keep it covered when not using it?
    Thanks.

    Hi there mercbluz!: considering that hostile enviroment you would be in the "fools hall of fame" if you didn't
    you & that printer would be behoove by having longer life & productivity not to mention less stress from dealing with the cat hair & dust
    hope this enlightens, clarifies & helps you
    good luck

  • Is it okay to closed the lid after using Macbook Pro even the it is hot?

    Hi. I'm using MBP early 2011 I5 and I noticed the temperature getting high and palm rest is getting hot/warm when I'm playing games. Is this normal? temperature around 80 degree celsius accoringding to istat.
    Also, after using the MBP, ofcourse the palm rest is hot/warm. Is it okay to close the lid after using it?
    Thanks.

    My practice has been to let the MBP cool a few minutes before closing the lid, so it's trapping less heat. I doubt this has much saving effect on the logic board components, but my MBP is old enough to have a glossyplastic display cover. It would look ugly if it started to warp.

  • Payroll Error msg "The gross wages do not cover the negative offset that has been forwarded, therefore, no grossup is permitted".

    Hi Experts,
    I am getting the below error msg while running payroll for an US employee.
    "The gross wages do not cover the negative offset that has been forwarded; therefore, no grossup is permitted."
    I am getting this error msg just after USTAX function processing part of UTX0 subschema. I am highlighting below facts & findings for your reference.
    As per a client requirement,  I have configured a new gross up WT (ER benefit contribution) for a benefit plan (IT 0168) and the changes are in QAS system. The changes have to be reflected in period 20/2014 (4th May'14- 10th May'14) with retro effective 01/01/2014 as per the benefit plan record maintained from 01/01/2014.
    This error msg is coming only for few employees. In my example, when I am running payroll in period 20/2014 with forced retro as 01/01/2014, system is giving error in period 14/2014 (23rd Mar'14-29th Mar'14). When I checked the pay result of this employee for period 14/2014, I can see the /101 is in -ve value and there is claim generated for this period. So I think, eventhough, a value of $ 2.53 is getting added as per the IT 0168 record, its not helping to give a +ve gross value and thus tax is not able to recoved on the same.
    I hope you have come across this issue and can help me to assist to resolve the error msg.
    Regards,
    Prakash  

    If you have correctly configured payroll the system should automatically off set that and should create wage tyes /561 or /563 in RT.

  • When I try to disable cellular data in the settings for my apps it will toggle fine, but once I exit and go back in to the cellular settings its back on again all by itself.

    I have had a problem with my iphone 4s for some time now but I have just been so busy to try and fix it. When I try to disable cellular data in the settings for my apps it will toggle fine, but once I exit and go back in to the cellular settings its back on again all by itself. However, even though it says the data is on, I can’t use the data when I don’t have wifi. I tried restoring my phone a few times and the last time I did that, it wouldn’t turn my service on so I had to talk with a Verizon agent for a long time trying to fix it and finally they simply sent me another phone. I thought hey new phone, this part will be fixed. However, I got my service to work but it’s still the same problem with the cellular data. I have just left it alone and not worried about it, but it’s still not fixed and thought I could ask on here if anyone had any ideas. It has something to do with the apps actually installed on the iphone. Apps like the mail, safari, settings, itunes apps, etc. All my other apps turn on and off just fine. Does anyone have any ideas?

    Read the User's Guide... it covers how to backup and sync the device as designed.

  • How Do I Stop the "Cellular Data is Turned Off..." Pop-up?

    RE:  "Cellular Data is Turned Off for..." pop-up on iOS 8.0.2 (iPhone 5s)
    I have set cellular data ON for some apps and OFF for others.  BY CHOICE.  So, I am suffering EVERY DAY with a pop-up telling me my "Cellular Data is Turned Off for..." for all of the applications I turn on where I HAVE PURPOSEFULLY CHOSEN TO TURN OFF THE CELLULAR DATA.
    I NEVER want to see this pop-up again.  And, I do not wish to turn on Cellular Data for most of my apps.  BY CHOICE.  Stop popping me!  Somebody please answer this question.  I absolutely hate this pop-up.  I am often in situations without my glasses - and this thing just drives me crazy!  Can't see the right answer....push the wrong side "OK" versus "Settings".  I hate it.  I know what apps I want to have cellular data and which one's I do not!   Stop the pop-up.  Or lose me to another brand of phone.  Period.
    Please, person with lots of "levels" - answer this question!  Help me turn the pop-up off.  I am not going to compromise other essential things (like turn off bluetooth or just check "all" for cellular data service and know that it will go away.  I want cellular data service for only a few things AND I never want to see this pop-up again.

  • Is there a way to make an audio clip not cover the whole project? I want to add audio clip or song and let it start at a certain point in the project. I'm working with iMovie on IPad!

    Is there a way to make an audio clip not cover the whole project in iMovie? I want to add audio clip or song and let it start at a certain point in the project. Whenever I add audio or song it covers the whole project. I'm working with iMovie on IPad!

    Thank you for your reply Karsten but unfortunately this didn't help me so far. Or maybe I'm missing something?
    First the link is a tutorial for iMovie on a Mac. I'm using iMovie on iPad so the steps are inapplicable.
    Second it is only possible for me to manipulate the end part of the sound clip to whichever duration I want. But I can't do the same with the 'beginning' of the sound clip.
    I simply want to place some photos in the beginning of my video with no sound in the background then after like 2 secs I want to start the music clip. For some reason that is not possible! Cause every time I drop the music clip unto my project timeline it automatically place it self along with the first frame in the project! And consequently the photos and music are forced to start together.
    Hope I'm making sense...

    Too bad my 4S is 2 years old. Wifi is dead. I had to upgrade to 5S, but 5S is soooooo much faster than 4S so it's kind of good outcome. Without the 4S breaking down, a stingy person like me would have never upgraded the phone.

  • So i recently lost my phone and i was wondering. does the warranty cover the loss of an apple product?

    I recently lost my Iphone 4 and ive had it for only a few months now. does anyone know if the warranty will cover the phone and if i would be able to get a new one for free?

    Your standard warranty does not cover loss or theft. For that you should have purchased insurance from your insurance agent. If you purchased the extended warranty, then look below to find your coverage limits:
    Apple - Support - AppleCare+ - iPhone

  • My screen cracked, but I haven't had my macbook for a full year yet. Does Apple care or warranty cover the costs of the damage?

    Yes, unless the damage occurred due to an accident. In other words the warranty is applicable only if the crack occurred due to a manufacturing defect.

  • TS1713 Does my 1-year warranty cover the replacement of a damaged Magsafe adaptor?

    The cord on my 85W Magsafe adaptor has been damaged. Does my 1-year warranty cover the replacement of the adaptor?

    The cord directly connected to the adaptor was starting to rip off, and so my mother used electrical tape to fix it. The tape ended up melting, somehow causing the cord to rip off, but not completely. The charger works to an extent - it's very on and off. However, I still would like to replace it for a new one. Will I still be able to replace it? With warranty covering it?

  • Does my warranty cover the mac book pro charger?

    I got a new Mac Book pro for Christmas and the charger already stopped working. Luckily I had an old one. Anyone know if my warrantly will cover the dead charger? Not trying to spend like 75 bucks on a new one.

    The Mac, so they can corroborate the serial no. and confirm coverage. Can check here:  https://selfsolve.apple.com/GetWarranty.do
    After this experience, consider the benefits of extending the warranty for two more years, post-Xmas, with AppleCare.

  • My Macbook Pro *****! I have had it for 2 weeks now, got it brand new at the apple store, it freezes all the time, and reboots itself, sometimes when i start it, purple dots cover the screen and i have to hold the power button.

    I have had it for 2 weeks now, got it brand new at the apple store, it freezes all the time, and reboots itself, sometimes when i start it, purple dots cover the screen and i have to hold the power button. a 2 week old computer is not supposed to do this! it wastes all its time being so flashy that it just craps out all the time. sometimes i feel like i should have stayed with my virus covered PC. at least when it shut down randomly you could turn it back on, but with the macbook pro, it just keeps restarting itself over and over. need help with this, any answers?

    Here's a novel thought. Take it back to the vendor. Should have done that one week ago.

  • How do I extend my WiFi with Airport Express? I have Ethernet in the house and an Wifi that do not cover the whole house. I do not get it to work.

    I have Ethernet in the house and an Wifi that do not cover the whole house. I do not get it to work. I have tried to get it into my network and it get connected via the WiFi but not the Ethernet. Also when it gives a green light I cannot see that it is giving any signals to my devices (iPhone etc).

    You need to pay attention to something, while extending your network with the latest AirPort Express upgrade, your devices will be connected to it except your iPhone, you'll see your iPhone always connected to the capsule instead, even if you're at 1 foot from the AirPort Express.
    You need to change the radio settings from automatic to 802.11a - 802.11b/g on your capsule, then I put it back to the default settings...
    Now in the AirPort utility you should see your iPhone connected to the AirPort
