Is it possible to turn off the passcode?

I’ve seen a couple postings that say go to Settings --> General --> Passcode Lock, but on my iPhone 4s I don’t see anywhere to turn it off at that point.  In the manual, there is no description of turning off the passcode – at least I didn’t find it.

no, once you get to Passcode Lock, there is no option to turn it off - certainly none visible to me.  Have you actually tried to do this?  Do you have an iphone 4s?
Here is a screen shot of what you get when you press "Passcode Lock".
You have to ENTER your passcode first, to access the part of the Settings that allows you to disable the passcode lock.
Enter your passcode.
Then you can turn the passcode off.

  • Camileo S20 - Is it possible to turn off the screen?

    Is it possible to turn off the screen when using Time Lapse or Motion Detection modes so as to save power?

    Hi buddy,
    I have downloaded the user manual off Camileo S20 and searched a little bit but unfortunately I can find no informations about turning off the screen when using Time Lapse or Motion Detection. It seems that the screen is always on.
    But you can connect the AC adaptor while recording movies. So you have always power. :)

  • Is it possible to turn off the Apple dock completely?

    I was wondering if it was possible to turn off the Apple dock completely without causing irreparable damage to my system. I am considering using Drag Thing, but when I am using it the functionality seems redundant with the Apple dock, also using both programs in tandem uses up more precious memory. The Drag Thing website links to the following tutorial as a solution:
    http://www.creativemac.com/2003/02_feb/tutorials/dockdead2030225.htm
    But it was published a long time ago, and I don't want to do anything rash that would damage my system, I mean I don't dislike the Apple dock enough to do that. Thanks in advance for the consideration and suggestions.

    I could only discover an option to hide the dock from within Drag Thing. I am looking to make the dock disappear completely. Drag Thing does not officially support this option, giving this answer in the Q & A section of their website:
    "*It is possible, but I wouldn't recommend it. Since people often ask how to do it anyway, here's a good tutorial I found on how to kill the Dock by Kevin Schmitt. This may have unforseen side effects however, which is why I've not documented the procedure myself, or added an option for this in DragThing. I keep the Dock hidden off the bottom of the screen on my own Mac.*"
    Is the dock so embedded within the Finder's operations that killing it will affect system performance?

  • Is it possible to turn off the updates that make your iphone need to be activated again?

    Is it possible to turn off the updates that make your iphone need to be activated again? Because you need wifi in order to activate and sometimes I don't have wifi so my iphone becomes unusable untill I get wifi again.

    I'm sorry but it says 8.1.2 on my phone when I check for the info about the software.
    The issue I have is that on random moments it asks me to activate my phone ( I think after an update or some kind ) but sometimes I have no access to wifi to activate it so I was wondering if I could make that stop?
    I'm sorry for the strange explanation, english isn't my mothertongue

  • Is it possible to turn off the fluid grid function in dreamweaver during the process of building your site by mistake? It was working fine and simply stopped and I don't see how to correct what is wrong.

    Is it possible to turn off the fluid grid function in dreamweaver during the process of building your site by mistake? It was working fine and simply stopped and I don't see how to correct what is wrong.

    There is no specific function that turns FGL on or off.
    When you say that it has stopped, do you mean that the handles no longer show?
    If that is the case, then I think you may have modified the CSS to such an extent that Dreamweaver no longer recognises it as belonging to FGL.
    There are a couple of avenues for you
    Redo the site and make sure not to touch the FGL CSS
    paste the code here so that we can see what has gone wrong.

  • I have a new iphone 5C. How can I turn off the passcode. It does not have 'Passcode' in settings - general -. Can anyone help please.

    I have a new iphone 5c.  How can I turn off the passcode. Unlike previous models it does not show Passcode under settings - general !!  Can anyone help?  Susie

    Thank you Chris.  Yes  I did know that but it was not clear how to turn it off.  All the forums visited said it was under general.  I have since found a site called iAnswerGuy which describes how to turn it off step by step. Thank you very much for coming back to me so quickly.  Susie

  • TS3376 How can I turn off the passcode thing? I can barely see some of the print, by the way.

    I cannot turn off the passcode feature on my iPad 2. I have done what they say, it says it's off, I got an email that says I am no longer protected, but the horrid passcode that comes constantly is still there.  Ready to throw it away, and was previously addicted.

    Are you sure that it is still asking for a passcode and not for your SIM PIN which looks very similar?

  • I noticed that touch id can be bypassed by swiping and entering passcode.  Is there any way to turn off the passcode, so the phone can ONLY be unlocked using your fingerprint?

    I noticed that touch id can be bypassed by swiping the screen and entering your passcode.  Is there any way to turn off the passcode, so the phone can ONLY be unlocked via fingerprint?  I liked the idea of having the extra security of a fingerprint sensor, but not if the phone can still be unlocked using only the passcode.  Then, what's the point of touch id?  Am I missing something here?

    What happens if the touch ID sensor gets broken?  It is a backup method to get in to your device.
    Consider editing your lock screen passcode, changing it from a simple 4 digit code, to a longer more complex password.

  • Is it possible to turn off the wireless signal on the Airport Extreme?

    Is it possible to temporarily turn off the wireless signal being emitted from an Airport Extreme whilst still remaining connected to the internet via ethernet? If so, what do you need to do to turn off the wireless signal?
    Also, how strong is the wireless signal? If placed in a basement of a residential property, is it likely that the signal would reach two floors above?
    Thanks very much for your answers.

    Welcome to the discussions!
    Is it possible to temporarily turn off the wireless signal being emitted from an Airport Extreme whilst still remaining connected to the internet via ethernet? If so, what do you need to do to turn off the wireless signal?
    Open AirPort Utility - Click Manual Setup
    Click the Wireless tab located just under the row of icons
    Wireless Mode = None
    Update to save your new settings
    You can reverse the process to turn the wireless back on when you are ready.
    Also, how strong is the wireless signal? If placed in a basement of a residential property, is it likely that the signal would reach two floors above?
    It's just not possible to accurately predict wireless performance in advance for any installation. A guess would be that the signal will be very weak, and likely unusable, but you won't know for sure until you try it out in your house.

  • Is it possible to turn off the icon Preview function?

    Hi all-
    Is there a way to turn off the icon Preview function in OS X?
    It’s particularly annoying especially when I open a folder with video clips in it and the Finder whirrs away trying to give a Preview for each file. It wouldn’t be so bad if the Finder remembered the icon, but everytime you open the folder it goes through the same process again! Plus, unless you’re using giant icons you can’t see what the preview is showing you anyway! I’m quite happy to have the ‘generic’ icon and allow the file name to tell me what the item is!
    Many thanks!

    OMG! I can’t believe it’s such a simple answer! Ha ha! I’ve been using Macs for years and never thought to look at the Views menu! (Hangs head in shame)
    Thanks!
