Is there another way to turn phone off?

My mom has an iphone 4. The sleep/wake button is stuck so it will not let her turn the phone off. Is there another way to turn the phone off?
Thanks!

As far as I know, the power button is the only way to turn your iPhone on and off. There's no other way, softward or hardware other wise. You might want to go to an Apple Store if it really bothers you, but turning your device on and off drains a lot of battery - it's better to just let it sleep automatically (as iDevices do after a certain amount of time).

Is there a way to turn my iPhone on if my lock button doesn't work?

My lock button broke & I was wondering if there's is another way to turn my phone on ?

Plugging it in usually works for me.
(either to a Mac, PC, or just an outlet)

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 another way to turn on the Power Mac G5?

Hello all and Happy Holidays!!
Due to limited space in the office, and also that the G5 actually produces much heat and 'loud fan noise', I have placed it below my desk, and "quite deep in" so that I would not kick it accidently if I move my legs.
Unfortunately this makes "a little inconvenience", every morning I will have to duck down low to reach for the power switch to start up my mac; How I miss my old Apple Cinema Display where I can power my old G4 up via the monitor.
Is there anyway to start up my G5 from the desktop?
Thanks and cheers

Ha ha ha, that's probably the "best original" solution I read so far!!
Call me "old school" but I prefer not to put my mac to (HD) sleep (although there isn't really a big difference than shutting down...) reasons being
1. I am afraid there may be a power outage in the office in the middle of the night... it happened before...
2. Also I do a lot of After Effects rendering, so sometimes I just queue up a long list of renders and leave office, I would not know when the rendering will be done and if the Sleep kicks in, it may conflict with the rendering, resulting in a possible freeze or hang, causing me the renders...
3. My producers work two shifts, the night shift ends at 1-2am, I am long gone by then, by they will need to retrieve rendered files or place raw footages in my mac via file sharing, they may have problems "waking up" the mac - they work in different locations to my office
So as far as I can, I try not to put the HD to sleep, but rather set it to shut down just after 3-4am, also to let the auto maintanence scripts to run...
Thanks and cheers

Is there another way into an iTunes account? Besides email verification and security questions? I'm not trying to hack I have rather extrodinary circumstances!

Alright so I had an iTunes account that as you'd expect was linked to my email. Long story short my email got hacked and hotmail shut it down because my email address which I could no longer get into was sending spam to all my contacts. Anyway I used to keep a lot of the same passwords for different things and I realised that I had the same password for my email as I did for my hotmail so I decided to change both the password and the email of my iTunes account but then I encountered some difficulties. I had to either answer the security questions or verify my email. I'd long since forgotten what I'd put for the answers of the security questions so now I was stuck. So I called apple and the guy helped me 'sort it out'.
I got my new account with its new email and new password and new email. But here's the thing now I can't get any of my old purchases. I've basically lost everything! So I need to get back into the old account and I've managed to get my broken old email restored so it should work now. But it doesn't the verification email doesn't come through! I need to get back on my old account. Someone please help!

You can't get any of your purchases because you created a new Apple ID, you didn't change the email on your old one. App and other content is forever tied to the Apple ID used to purchase it. There is no way to transfer them and no way to merge Apple IDs.
You need to call Apple back, explain the situation and tell them you need to change the email on your old Apple ID - NOT create a new one.

Nokia 6234: is there another way to switch on?

My Nokia 6234 does not switch on. I think the power button got broken. Is there another way to switch it on, other than the power button?

i don't believe there is any other way with any mobile phone to turn it on apart from depressing the power button. try taking your phone battery out for ten minutes then replacing it, and see if your phone powers on. if this does not work, and there appears to be physical damage to your power button/does not work, then you will have no choice to take your phone to your local Nokia Care Centre for them to take a look at.
please throw some kudos our way, it would mean a lot to us
If you found this or someone's comments helpful or like what that person has to say, please give some Kudos to their post!

HT201269 I have an IPhone 4 that turns off.When I plug the phone into a outlet, it says to connect to iTunes. But my phone doesn't connect. I need to backup info to sync to a new iPhone. Is there another way to get the info from the old one?

I have an IPhone 4 that turns off on its own. When I plug the phone into an outlet, it says to connect to iTunes. When i connect my phone to itunes, the screen displays the apple icon and doesn't connect to iTunes. I need to backup info on this phone so I can apply my back up to a new iPhone. Is there any another way i can do this? My older phone will not show it's connected to iTunes. I used iCloud on the phone with problems, but I didn't back up all the info thru iCloud. Is there another way to back up?

Sounds like your phone is in recovery mode. In this case, all data on it is gone. There's nothing to back up.

TS2755 i need to know how to block someone from sending me txt/imessges and calling me. they have a iphone too so i have been told the only way to block them is to turn off my imessages and only recieve regular txt messages. is there another way to block

how do u block someone from sending imessages and txt and calling ur phone when they have a iphone also. I have been told the only way is to turn off my imessages and recieve regular text messages.. is there another way?? i have searched for apps and cant find one. neeed help!!!

There are no apps and that is not a feature of iOS.
iMessages are handled by Apple's own system, and there is no way to block a specific sender.
SMS messages and voice calls are handled by your cell service provider, so you need to ask them what blocking (if any) features they offer. If the texts are just spam, you should be able to report them to your carrier and they can block that sender. Other blocking options will vary from carrier to carrier, so call yours and ask them what they can do.

Is there another way to completely turn off my iPod to save battery?

I've heard that turning off my iPod by holding the Play/Pause button is just putting it into a sort of "Sleep" Mode, where it appears to be off but is actually still using a considerable amount of battery.
Is there another way, a better way, to completely turn it off?
Thanks.

After it is off for a while it will go into a deeper sleep on its own.
It is not using much battery power when you put it to sleep by holding down the play button. Make sure you activate the hold button after you do this so it does not inadvertently "wake up".

HT204396 I forgot my restriction pass code anybody knows if there is another way to turn restrictions off

I forgot my ipad restriction pass code now I can't turn it off or delete or install any new software updates if anybody can help me know if there is another way to turn that feature off?

There is no way. You must restore the device as new. You can only restore a backup you made prior to when you put the restriction code in place.
Locked Out, Forgot Lock or Restrictions Passcode, or Need to Restore Your Device: Several Alternative Solutions
A
1. iOS- Forgotten passcode or device disabled after entering wrong passcode
2. iPhone, iPad, iPod touch: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
3. Restoring iPod touch after forgotten passcode
4. What to Do If You've Forgotten Your iPhone's Passcode
5. iOS- Understanding passcodes
6. iTunes 10 for Mac- Update and restore software on iPod, iPhone, or iPad
7. iOS - Unable to update or restore
Forgotten Restrictions Passcode Help
iPad,iPod,iPod Touch Recovery Mode
You will need to restore your device as New to remove a Restrictions passcode. Go through the normal process to restore your device, but when you see the options to restore as New or from a backup, be sure to choose New.
You can restore from a backup if you have one from BEFORE you set the restrictions passcode.
Also, see iTunes- Restoring iOS software.

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."
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.
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.

When sharing screen from work with my home computer, is there any way to turn off the display at home?

Hi, sorry if this is a silly question, but when I'm viewing my desktop on the home computer from work (as in I've connected by finding my computer in the finder and hit the "Share Screen" button - is there any way to turn off the display at home? It seems a bit of a waste of power to have the screen on when I'm not actually there - I just need to be able to see all my programs etc on the remote screen in order to use them. My home computer is a 2011 iMac running latest Mountain Lion, work is a 2010 MacBook Pro.
Thanks in advance!
Matt

I've set up another user on my home Mac and left that one logged in. Now when I connect from work it asks me if I want to share the screen or log on virtually as my user. I think choosing the second option doesn't power up the screen.

Say I turn off my Computer or restart it & then I load up Firefox the pages I was previously at loads up. This is very very very annoying & I see no options in the settings to turn this off.

Hello David.
Go into ''Tools > Options > General > Startup:When Firefox starts:'' and configure it as you want (probably to show your home page?). This is the very first option that appears in the options screen, but I understand that it may not be very easy to find. Firefox 4 will not include any redesign to the options screen (except possibly it appearing in a tab, rather than in a popup), but you may interested to know that there are plans to redesign the options screen for versions after Firefox 4, to make it easier to use. If you want to know more about the redesign, just ask.
Anyway, if that doesn't help (it probably does, but just in case), it's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.
