Is it possible to make an icon for a movie on the home screen?

Is there a way to make a direct icon for movie instead of going into the "Videos" icon? 

If there is a website that plays your movie, then you can go to safari, type the website in, open the page, then tap the share arrow, then tap add to home screen. Thats as close to it that you can get.

  • How can I add an icon for a contact to the home screen?

    New to iPhone and can't find a way to add a shortcut/icon for an individual contact to the home screen. I have looked in the user's guide and searched the web but no luck other than suggestions to download some type of app. This function has been available on two different Android phones I've used the past several years. Surely the iPhone has this capability???

    That is not a standard feature on the iPhone. There are many features available on one and not the other.

  • My iPhone apps wouldn't open they just blink for a second and the home screen comes back again...i tried installing a free app from the AppStore but it didn't work and also tried resetting the iPhone but ddnt work as well please help what do i do??

    Oh my gosh I had the EXACT same problem, and for ages I couldn't figure out how to fix it until today. Here's what I did:
    First I went onto my computer, opened itunes, and un-installed tumblr, vine and kik. These were the apps I was having problems with (it said I had them on my phone but, like you, they didn't show).
    Then I went to the itunes store, searched for each one, and it said I could update them so I did (just FYI: for tumblr a window popped up saying "please click ok to confirm you are 17 years or older", so I did that also)
    When I went back to my phone and tried installing them again (still on my computer), it worked!
    I hope this helps, because it was incredibly frustrating. Good luck!

  • How do I remove an icon that I added to the Home Screen in Safari?

    I accidentally added a webpage icon to my Home Screen in Safari and cannot remove it.  On the Home Screen the icons do not act like they do on the other  pages of the iPad.  They do not jiggle nor can they be dragged to be removed.  In the process of trying to get rid of some I ended up creating duplicates.  How can I delete some of these?

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
    Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds).
    No data will be lost.

  • How do I put an icon for Outlook Express on the home page????

    Having just moved into FF 3.6.1 from IE8, I am use to having an icon for the mail (outlook express) on the home page. I set outlook up in 'Options';'Applications';'mailto' as default, however, how do I set up an icon on the home page that will enable me to read my mail.

    GetMail extension adds that feature to Firefox. <br />

  • Is it worth it to make custom icons for a custom control/indicator?

    I was making custom icons (well not very custom, but still at least somet ext) for controls and indicators, when I realized that the only times you see them are when you open the control, itself, ot if you hover over it in the project with context help on.
    So the question is:
    Is it worth it to create a custom icon for each custom control you make, if it will be seen only rarely?  (The exception being a cluster, since, in the later versions of LabVIEW, you can actually represent your cluster on the BD as the icon you made for it, so it definitely IS worth it to make an icon for it.)
    Thanks!

    I'd like to add another time that you see the control's icon, is when it is a type def cluster, and you have it as a constant on the block diagram.  Then double click the border to shrink the cluster.  It will shrink to the size of the control's icon.
    I also hardly ever make a control icon.  Only when it is on the palette in a reuse package.
    Yeah,t hat's what I meant in my original post, although you CAN represent a cluster constant on the BD as an icon - but it's just the little thing on the bottom of the typdef'd cluster because it obviously has no actual icon.

  • Is it possible to make the ipad remain on an app screen rather than reverting to the home screen?

    We have a credit card app on our Ipad2 that we want to remain available for use 24/7; the ipad is encased in a security holder and the 'home' button is not accessible. Therefore, we want the card app to remain as the only thing visible. Unfortunately, the ipad keeps timing out to the home screen which makes all other apps available to everyone. Short of removing all other icons, is there a way to make it stay within the credit card app?
    Thanks

    Apps don't time out.   There is no specific time interval for app usage.  If its going back to the home screen either the home button is being pressed (which you said is not possible) or the App is crashing.
    In which case its something for the developer to look into.
    You can find crash reports under Settings->General->About->Diagnostics and Usage->Diagnostic and Usage Data.
    Other than that, I'm not certain Guided Access will relaunch the App in the event that it crashes, but you may want to look into it.
    Settings->General->Accessibility->Guided Access

    Depending on exactly what you want to do, there are a couple of ways of handling this. You may want to access teh user guide for some ideas: http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/ipad_user_guide.pdf
    In particular, check the sections on Customizing iPad and Settings > Restrictions.

  • Hi My grandparents just bought an iPod Touch for me from Dubai, UAE. I can't see any facetime on the home screen nor in the settings. I've read that it's not possible. But is it possible if I get my OS updated again from India?

    There is no way you can activate Facetime on an iPod touch purchased in the UAE. The government there required Apple to lock off Facetime at the hardware level and there's no way to unlock it. Reinstalling iOS, regardless of country, will not help. If you want Facetime, you will need to sell your UAE-version iPod and buy one there in India.

    Hi daphnejvr
    Your Adobe ID shows your country as Nigeria which is not a country that we currently sell to via adobe.com.  This would explain why your order wasn't accepted.
    Creative Cloud for Teams is available via resellers in your region.

  • My FaceTime icon in settings is not clickable and the application on the home screen responds with "Account Restriction This phone is restricted from creating FaceTime accounts (I have used FT for 3 yrars and had a in order account before 8.02, this

    In settings, the FaceTime icon is not clickable and in home screen the FaceTime icon (application) responds with: "Account Restriction This iPhone is restricted from making FaceTime accounts". I have had a FaceTime account in good order for 2 years now and have not abused or excessively used it. Apple doesn't respond multiple messages, ISP is of no use.

    I have tried this and can see that FaceTime is ALLOWED in RESTRICTIONS
    I have tried also, in restrictions, other items regarding applications, iTunes App Store without results.
