Is there a way to turn the 4G radio on and off on the iPhone 5

I'm able to upgrade my phone on the 1st of March and was recently if there was a way in the settings or whatnot if you could toggle the 4G radio on and off. I live in rural Ohio and theres no need for a 4G radio in these hills but I'd love to have the phone so thats a big issue for me. Any advice is appreciated, thank you!

Settings / General / Cellular
The specific options available will be contingent on whether the phone is locked by the carrier. In mine, I don't have any LTE/4G settings available, but can disable 3G for better battery life (after which the phone links up to the carrier using Edge)

  • Is there a way to turn the wireless capabilities off on an AirPort Express?  I have an AirPort Extreme as my main router and use the express to just extend it. I only really want to you use the express for hard ethernet connections

    Is there a way to turn the wireless capabilities off on an AirPort Express?  I have an AirPort Extreme as my main router and use the express to just extend it. I only really want to you use the express for hard ethernet connections. For whatever reason when I have my express extend my wifi at home the download speed from just the express is absolutely terrible, drops to about 1.5 mb compared to when it's on the extremes part of the network the speed goes up to 50-75mb. These terrible download speed really only affects the iPhones as my MacBook Pro usually gets the good speed no matter where it is. I don't believe there is anything wrong with my phone because if I am in the part of the house that uses just the extreme the download speeds on the iphone goes up to 50-75mb. As a note I have an AirPort Extreme on the top floor of my house (second floor) that's where my modem is located. On the first floor that's where one airport express is located. I also have another airport express in the basement that is accessed by my landlord. Any thoughts on how to fix this would be helpful.

    It appears that your networking goals with the AirPort Express is to use it as a wireless Ethernet bridge instead of using it to extend the wireless range of your AirPort Extreme. The latter requires that the Express Wi-Fi radios be enabled.
    If you intended to use the Express as a wireless bridge, you just need to reconfigure it to "Join a wireless" network instead of "Extend a wireless network."

    In an extended network, the placement of the extending base station is critical as it can only extend the wireless network at the bandwidth at which it receives it.
    Please check out the following AirPort User Tip for details on optimal base station placement.

  • I have my TC in my Bedroom, So the light can be bright. Is there any way to turn the light off?

    I have my TC in my Bedroom, So the light can be bright. Is there any way to turn the light off?

    The light cannot be turned off, but if you stop by at the office supply store and get a sheet of small 1/2" white routnd labels, you can place a few over the light to dim it significantly. Add more labels as needed to adjust for the brightness level you want to achieve.
    Of course, you could use a piece of tape, but the white labels look much nicer and won't be noticeable once you get 4-5 feet away from the device.

  • TS1369 i have a screen with the apple logo on it and a bar underneath it. it has been this way for about an hour now. what does this mean and is there a way to reset the iphone without going into the store? it isnt showing in my computer or on the itunes

    i have a screen with the apple logo on it and a bar underneath it. it has been this way for about an hour now. what does this mean and is there a way to reset the iphone without going into the store? it isnt showing in my computer or on the itunes page.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iPod fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • I formerly had an iPhone 3 with my iTunes account/music on it. I've recently purchased an iPhone 5s. I no longer have the iPhone 3. Is there any way to retrieve music from my account and put on my iPhone 5s?

    I formerly had an iPhone 3 with my iTunes account/music on it. I've recently purchased an iPhone 5s. I no longer have the iPhone 3. Is there any way to retrieve music from my account and put on my iPhone 5s?

    Yes.  Sign in to the iTunes Store with the same Apple ID you used to buy the music in settings on the phone.
    Then tap on "purchased" in the iTunes app on the phone and download the music to your new iPhone.

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

    Does anyone know of a way to turn the camera on and off remotely? I have a client that wants to mount a camera to the ceiling to photograph large rugs on the floor. We need a way to turn the camera on and off remotely and I am lookin for a solution.

    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 way too lock the iphone history on safari

    my history keeps getting erased and i dont know whos doing it i wanna know if theres a way to lock the clear history button

    No.
    Unless you or someone else using the phone is clearing the history, resting data, or restoring the phone, the Safari history doesn't get deleted. If someone else may be doing this, you can enable a restriction on Safari:
    Settings > General > Restrictions > Enable Restrictions > Safari > On

  • 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.

  • Is there a way to turn the new iMac screen off while running a song?

    I know the key command is shift control eject-- and it works-- but only for a few seconds. Does anybody know how to turn the screen off so that it will stay off for any serious period of time?
    I used to do this in my g5 by just turning the monitor off. great to trick to ensure that i'm listening to a mix w/ my ears--- not my eyes.
    thank you

    Thank you for all the responses.
    I've tried the black cloth. it's okay-- but i wind up have to attach something to the iMac--- and my clients are very sensitive to the things look here. i think it's petty-- but whatever. Also-- i have to constantly be taking it on/off as i make ajustments.
    As far as turning around goes-- this is okay. I've tried it. the thing is-- your the way your ears receive sound-- is significantly different when you turn around. not drastically-- but again-- i'm talking about slight adjustments anyhow. any little difference can throw things off.
    And the idea of a screen saver-- well-- here's the thing: when i'm trying to think only of music-- i don't even want to have to look at a computer screen. Imagine if you owned a nice pioneer 1970's stereo receiver and killer set of speakers. But everytime you were listening to it-- you had to look at a some sort of computer image. just not that pleasant.
    comfort is pretty important to me at this point and that's kind of the whole goal. to still sit where i sit, look where i look, but not have to see a lit display on a computer screen.
    i will try the hot corner thing.
    thank you all for your responses.

  • Is there a way to set the iPhone to have a black screen with white text?

    I found the "Invert Colors" option under Settings > General > Accessibility, and like it a lot. It provides enhanced readability.
    The problem is that it inverts all colors, even for apps. So when I view a web page in Safari, all the colors are inverted for the images.
    And when I view my photos in Photos, these are also inverted as well.
    Is there a way to set up the iPhone to default to a black screen and white letters for the OS, but allow the apps and photos, etc. to
    be viewed in their regular colors. For example, can I run Photos to view my photos on a black background but view the photos in their
    normal coloring?

    I'm afraid that is not possible, maybe this could bee a step in that direction if you use the mentioned Zoom function:
    Invert Colors and Grayscale
    Sometimes, inverting the colors or changing to grayscale on the iPhone screen makes it easier to read.
    Invert the screen colors. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility, then turn on Invert Colors.
    See the screen in grayscale. Go to Settings > General > Accessibility, then turn on Grayscale.
    Turn on both effects to see inverted grayscale. You can also apply these effects to just the contents of the zoom window—see Zoom on page 150.

  • Just bought an Mercedes E350, and my 4s iphone has enough contacts where it can not download 60% of them into the car.  Is there a way to access the iphone directory without downloading the contacts into the car.  Just use the phone memory?

    Just purchased an E350 and there are too many addresses in my iPhone to be saved in the E350 address book.  Is there a way the car can look up the addresses on my phone instead of trying to download them all?  I am checking wtih MB to see if there is a way to increase the capacity on the car for memory, but I doubt it.  I have not tried putting in an SD card, but I doubt the address book on the car would overflow to external memory.

    hi, this thread already deals with the issue:
    How can I prevent getting calls from number that are not in my address book?

  • Is there a way to keep the iPhone from checking one address's email?

    Meaning this. I have five addresses on my iPhone. When I go into the mail app, I only want it to check one of them for new mail. But every time it checks all five.
    Is there any way I can keep it from checking the four without cutting off each account?

    No, there's no control of which accounts it will retrieve, except by setting the unwanted accounts to OFF in Settings.
