Is there a way to disable switching off the iPhone from the lock screen?

The reason i ask this is , if you are able to switch a phone off from a locked screen , it defeats the purpose of using the I cloud to track your stolen phone. Atleast if switching off is passcode protected, then you have time to track the phone, erase content etc till the battery runs out.

No sorry

  • I have an iphone and an ipad (which are connected by the same apple id) i broke the phone and sold it but i didnt get to factory reset it because it was broken, is there any way for me to wipe my iphone from my ipad?

    i have an iphone and an ipad (which are connected by the same apple id) i broke the phone and sold it but i didnt get to factory reset it because it was broken, is there any way for me to wipe my iphone from my ipad?

    Try this:
    Open the "Find my iPhone" app on your iPad, fill in your AppleID and password at the start up screen, and you should see a list of all your devices and their current location, if connected to a Wi-Fi or mobile data network. Devices not connected will be shown as "offline". But you can still trap on the icon and hit "erase iPhone" in the right hand window.
    If your iPhone is not listed, you did not activate this feature during the setup of the phone and it can't be erased remotely.
    If the phone is listed, even as offline, tap on "erase" to send the erase command. The next time your device will be connected to any kind of network, the content will be erased.

  • How do I shut off the lock screen feature on my iPhone 5s?

    How do I shut off the lock screen feature on my iPhone 5s?

    You can turn Auto-Lock off and you can choose not to have the Passcode Lock feature enabled, but there will always "slide to unlock" available after manually turning the iPhone's screen off with the sleep/wake button or with Auto-Lock enabled without having the Passcode Lock feature enabled.
    This is to prevent anything from being selected on the iPhone after the screen has been turned off or or placing the iPhone in sleep mode if the iPhone were in your pocket and the home button or sleep/wake button was selected without your knowledge.

  • Is there any way to get rid off the network lost notifications - really ruins the iPad experience :(

    Hey all, I'm getting really frustrated with constantly being notified that the network has dropped, especially when travelling through areas with patchy signal. I know I can turn off 3g but that would mean not using 3G when I need it the most. I think this notification is poorly thought out by apple - why would a user want to be notified every 30 seconds their signal is coming and going? Or indeed ever be notified? Surely that's what the signal bar is for. is there a way to disable this noification? Thanks for the help.

    Assuming you're talking about the icons, only the developer can change those... Apple in this case.

  • In keynote 2.0, is there a way to disable clicking to the next slide?

    I'm trying to create a Jeopardy template that lets the user click on the board to choose a question but I can't get it to stop moving forward one slide when someone click on the background of the question. Is there a way to disable that like in Powerpoint? I want to create clickable objects instead but if someone misses them by accident it could mess up the game.

    In the Document Inspector, in the Presentation dropdown menu, choose "Hyperlinks only". This option allows navigation of the presentation solely through explicit hyperlinks.

  • IS there a way of disabling or removing an addon from outside of FF (It won't start after adding an addon)

    I installed an addon and now FF will not start and appears to be looping. Is there a way to uninstall the addon or set up FF so that it starts with addons disabled? Remember that FF is not running at all so I do not have access to any of the internal functions.
    FF release is 17.0.1, on Windiows XP/SP3
    Also, once I do that I would like to have the addon added to the block list.

    The home page '''''about:home''''' is built in to Firefox and should/would not be affected.
    Though it should/would not affect '''''about:home''''', there is an entry for Mozilla on their list, if you are using some page at mozilla as your home page. On my installation that item on their list is shown as disabled; I do not recall disabling that item myself, therefore it could be their default (disabled) and they know that item is not functioning properly on their list.
    You may be correct in that there could be a conflict with another add-on. The only way to determine that is to experiment by installing '''''HTTPS Everywhere''''', disabling/enabling a few extensions (or plugins), restart Firefox and repeat until you find the conflicting item.

  • Is there a way to disable touch on the Helix and get a power management for battery cycles?

    As the title describes.
    I've been drawing a fair bit on the Helix using photoshop but what to find a way to disable touch. I used to be able to do it on my x220t through the control panel>isd tablet settings. Windows 8 doesn't have that option. Please don't mention palm rejection as it doesn't always work.
    Also I'd live to know if there is a battery gauge to show the battery cycle of the helix. I know the battery is in good condition. What i'd like to know is the cycles of both batteries.

    So I have found a temp work-around that does the deed.  I have been using a lot of autodesk sketch, and its bomb if you don't have to worry about your hand touching the screen while you sketch.  Here is how I have been doing it.
    WIN+X >> Device Manager >> Human Interface Devices >> 
    Under this section you will find three USB Drivers installed.  I found that if I desable the second USB Driver, then the touch screen stops working, but the Digitizer still works 100%.  Just re-enable when you want to use the touch again.  I really wish Lenovo had software to take care of this out of the box.  But as I said, It works for the time being.

  • Is there a way to delete everything off the Ipod but not off itunes?

    I have a 4g Ipod nano, and it is full so it wont let me add any new songs. I have gone into itunes and deleted songs from my playlist and tried to update my ipod but even when i delete playlists and songs it still says that i dont have enough room to add any more. Is there any way i can delete everything off my ipod and but still have all my music in itunes so i can basically start over?

    Try restoring your iPod. Restoring will erase the iPod's hard drive, reload the software and put it back to default settings. it won't remove anything from your iTunes library. Once the restore is complete follow the on screen instructions to name the iPod and automatically sync your songs and videos onto the fresh installation. Press Done and the iPod will appear in iTunes and start to sync. If you want to update manually or using selected playlists uncheck the box beside the sync automatically instruction and press Done, it will default to manual mode and you can choose whatever setting you like: Restoring iPod to factory settings with iTunes 7

  • I have an iPhone 3g. I cannot retrieve the photos from the photo library. Is there a way to get them off the iPhone?

    I am using a Windows 64 bit premium, the phone is the 3g 16gig, and I cannot retrieve the photos from the photo library. I can retrieve the camera roll. How do I get the photos from the photo library?

    I'm sorry I was not clear, I am extremely frustrated with iPhones right now. That is the reason my new phone is an Android!
    I have a camera roll folder on the iPhone that has 346 photos that I took with the iPhone. I was able to retrieve those simply by connecting the iPhone to the computer. I have a second folder on the iPhone that is called Photo Library that has 818 photos that I wanted to retrieve from my iPhone. These photos were placed onto the iPhone from a sync, but my computer crashed and I had to format the hard drive. Doing so obviously caused me to loose all of my photos on my computer. The photos on the iPhone in the Photo Library are associated to the old computer folder library so it will not sync to the new computer. I was trying to retrieve those photos, but was not having any luck.
    UPDATE! I remembered that I had backed up the computer hard drive to an external hard drive before the crash. I located ALL of the photos on that hard drive that I was trying to retrieve from the iPhone Photo Library.
    *NOTE* If anyone has an answer to how to retrieve these photos, please post as my father is also have issues trying to retrieve photos the same way only he did not have his backed up.

  • IS there any way to copy all your old buddies from and old screen name

    to a new screen name?
    thanks!
    using ichat on leopard

    In case you're want to use an old AIM screen name you've not been using for a while I think it is better to just refresh your complete buddy list by sending your contacts an email with your new screen name and have them update this in their data base.
    Ask them to respond with their recent contact info and add their active screen name to your buddy list. Every now and then this can be very useful cause contact info tends to change when people move, get a new job or switch to another computer.
    Free Aim screen names that have been inactive for a certain period will become invalid, understandable because their database needs to be up to date as well.

  • Is there a way to disable wireless if the Ethernet LAN is connected?

    We need to stop users connecting to public wi-fi if they are on the corporate LAN. It's possible with the latest drivers on Windows butI can't see a way of doing it in OSX.
    Many thanks
