Is there a quick way to turn Cellular Data on and off?

I just sent this suggestion in to Apple:
I have limited data on my Iphone 4s, well 2gb and I try to use my wifi as much as possible while home especially. I don't know the technical term for it, but when you swipe up from the bottom of the phone and : wifi, airplane mode, bluetooth, do not disturb comes up to quickly turn those functions on and off wouldn't it make more sense to replace airplane mode with cellular data? That way we can quickly access and turn cellular data on and off instead of going through the settings, cellular data on/off. Just thought this would make our lives easier and hope you will consider it on your next update.
Does anyone know if I have the cellular data turned on, but the WIFI is being used first, if that still uses up my Cellular data? I think I know enough that if the "verizon" is in the upper left corner that the wifi is being used through my router but then if my 3G is displayed than I'm going through my cellular data. Sorry, I'm new to the Iphone scene so I'm still learning.
Ok, thanks in advance.

Actually, all the display of Verizon on the phone shows is that you are connected to their network, it does not show that you are on wi-fi, or cellular data. If the wi-fi fan is displayed, then you are on wi-fi. If the phone is displaying 3G then you are using cellular data. If you are connected to wi-fi, the phone defaults to wi-fi and will use that instead of cellular data. However, if the phone is not actively utilizing data and the phone goes into sleep mode, then wi-fi is disconnected. It will connect immediately after being awoken.
Does this answer your questions?

Is there a way to turn the camera on and off remotely?

I have at least one Canon remote that I've used with my 7D's. Unfortunately, I don't have it with me, because today's shoot doesn't require it. So I can't give you the model number. (Models come and go anyway.) It has a shutter button that you can press halfway to activate auto-focussing, just like the button on the camera. But you do have to make sure that the camera has an IR sensor. On a Canon DSLR, look for it where the fingers of your right hand would cover it up; I think that's intentional, so that a spurious IR beam won't fire the shutter while you're taking hand-held shots. Also, check that the camera and the remote are compatible, e.g. that they agree on the frequencies of light that are to be used.

Is there a problem in turning the cellular data on and off to save battery?

is there any problem in turning on and off the cellular data frequently to save battery???

Hi Friend,
There is no problem. Even you turn data cellular off, you can keep turn on Wireless, so you can access internet, send/receive iMessages or anything else.
But, I have present my battery during 34 hours (charged until 83% on Saturday 22:30 and drained till 3% on Monday 08:00) ! Amazing ! And, I already posted this solution before: recharge the battery until reach 80 to 90%. IOS 6 User's Guide says make a full recharge just once a month. It takes few days to see the improvements. Restore your device will improve the results as well. All of this improves my battery fife over 15 hours, but my last battery life tes was 34 hous!
Hope it will be helpful

Hello, Gazzlaa84.
You can import your media a couple different ways. If you plan on keeping the media on the external drive, I would just direct iTunes to read the media folder on the external. Here are the steps on how to make that change.

Is there any way to turn the low battery warnings off for my Mighty Mouse?

I noticed a pop-up warning on start-up when my battery life reached two bars for my new wireless Mighty Mouse. Also the battery sign kept on flashing in my menu bar.
I was wondering if there was a way of turning these warnings off, save uninstalling the Apple software, or should I just change batteries and not worry about getting as much use as I can out of my current pair.
I've also turned off "show bluetooth status in menu bar" in mouse preferences but it keeps on turning on at startup and it doesn't seem to get rid of the low battery indicator flashing on and off in the menu anyway.
(And would turning off system events as a login item disable the startup warning?).
Thanks
Paul

Hello Paul:
My own experience is that when the warning pops up (regardless of the yellow bars), you need to change the batteries. In my case I use rechargeable 2500 mAh batteries and an Energizer recharger that charges AA and AAA batteries in 15 minutes.

You can restore your iPad with your iPhone backup but items that are iPhone only will not transfer. It should recreate all your folders. It can't hurt anything to try.

Is there a quick way to convert Albums to Projects?

Due to bringing in legacy organizing from iView MediaPro into Aperture years ago... I have an organizational structure consisting of few top level Projects containing many Albums. I now realize I should have few top level Folders containing many Projects (which contain Albums when necessary).
So the question is... is there a quick way to convert an Album to a Project? If I have to create a new Project for each Album I have by hand... this will take forever as I have hundreds of Albums.
Thanks!

Doing it manually is what I'm trying to avoid... I have a LOT of albums. I started trying to script it but I am trying to piece it together with my uber limited applescript knowledge... here's what I've got:
tell application "Aperture 3"
set imgSel to (get selection)
if imgSel is {} then
error "Please select an image."
else
set pName to name of parent of item 1 of imgSel
set pID to id of parent of item 1 of imgSel
set cID to id of parent of parent of item 1 of imgSel
tell library "Aperture Library"
make new project with properties {name:pName}
repeat with i from 1 to count of imgSel
move item i of imgSel to project (pName)
end repeat
end tell
end if
end tell
It's ghetto (there's some stuff I need to comment out that wasn't used) and it seemed to work in the test library I setup, but when I went back there were some weird thumbnail issues so I'm scared... not to mention it doesn't seem to work in the actual library for some reason. It won't create the new project. Weird.

Just the regular way. Take the photo and then open the Messages app and select that photo and send it. That does not seem hard.

Is there a quick way to replace entire sets of styles?

I am currently working on updating InDesign templates that the rest of our team use to start translating different versions of our books. In the template we have the guides and text boxes all created as well a sets of styles to use.. (Headers, Body, Captions..etc).
They started on an older version of this template and I've just updated it by re-defining all the styles. Is there a way I can replace a document's styles with an entirely new set?
The styles are all named the same from the previous versions - but currently I still have to go delete each style and apply the 'new' style - one by one. This takes a while when we have nearly 100 styles. Is there a quicker way to do this? Or am I looking at this whole template thing wrong?
Is there a tutorial or a video explaining the philosophy behind these templates? Basically, we create new books or documents all the time and although they go to different typesetters, I would like them all to use the same 'standard' styles.

When you load styles that have the same names you should get a dialog that lets choose whether to update the existing style with the incoming style or rename the incoming:

Is there a quicker way to hide file extensions on multiple files.

So, there's the real filename (visible in Terminal) and then the displayed name in Finder and some other applications such as Front Row. Well, I'm using Front Row and I would like my AVI files to display just the name of the movie - not the full filename.
OS X allows me to change each file individually to hide the extension (either by renaming it in Finder or by checking 'hide extension' in the file's info box) and also allow the whole curtain to be pulled back via a setting in Finder's preferences. But there doesn't seem to be a way to hide the extensions of a particular bunch of files en masse.
What I would like to know is: Is there a quicker way to do this for all my AVI files? There doesn't seem to be an Automator task that will change file properties (other than permissions). Is there a way I could do it at the command line perhaps? I'm fairly handy with Unix shell scripts and Perl - I'm just relatively new to OS X, that's all.

The basic mechanism is to select all the files you wish to change then hold down the OPTION key and select Show Inspector from the Finder's File menu. Check the box to hide extension. This will set the preference for all selected files.
If your files are scattered all over the place, then use the Finder's Find function to find all files with the extension attribute you want, then save the result as a Smart Folder. Then select all files in the Smart Folder you created and do the above.
