Is there any way to allow calls from certain people to ring with your phone on silent?

I would like to be able to put my phone one silent, for instance at night when I'm sleeping, but to be able to allow certain people's calls to "override" silent mode. For example, my boyfriend and family know when I go to sleep, so they wouldn't call or text in the middle of the night unless it was an emergency. Other people, however find it amusing to send random text messages in the middle of the night that wake me up. I don't want to miss an emergency call, however, so it's not as simple as just putting my phone on silent. Any ideas?

As David said; record a sound where there is no sound and make this a mp3 file and trasfer it to ur iphone and follow the steps below to make silent ringtone.
    1.    Start iTunes and find the song you want to convert. (It must be an MP3.)
    2.    Right-click the song and choose Get Info.
    3.    Click the Options tab.
    4.    Check the Start Time and Stop Time boxes, then enter times for each (no more than 30 seconds apart, the maximum length for a ringtone). I used 0:00 and 0:30, respectively, as "Spit It Out" has a perfect ascending lead-in.
    5.    Click OK, then right-click the song again and choose Create AAC Version. You should immediately see a new 30-second version of the song.
    6.    Drag that version out of iTunes and into the folder of your choice.
    7.    Delete the 30-second version from iTunes and undo the Start Time/Stop Time changes to the original.
    8.    Open the folder containing the 30-second AAC file you dragged out of iTunes, then change the file extension from .m4a to .m4r. Double-click it and it immediately gets added to iTunes' ringtone library.
    9.    Finally, sync your iPhone. When it's done, you can head into the settings and select your new ringtone.

  • Is there any way to set the inspector in Pages to default with your personal settings?

    Every time I want to use Pages I have to use the inspector to indicate if I want a header and footer or not.  That is getting annoying.  I would like to be able to set margins and if I want the header and footer or not and then make these the default settings.  Is there any way to do this?

    It appears to me after tinkering around that I can set a page like I want it and then save it as a template.  I did so to a folder in Finder.  Now the only way I can automatically bring up "default" settings on a Pages blank document is to go directly to that file in Finder and open it from there, not from Pages itself.  Is there any other way to do this?

  • Is there any way to block calls from "blocked number"

    I would like to be able to block calls from numbers that show up in my caller ID as "Blocked".  I dont really care who they are I want them to share their number or I dont' want them to call. Is there anyway to do this? I am not talking about the restricted numbers just the ones that people have chosen to block. They can all do the *## and unblock their number when they call my phone if they really want me to answer it!

    Nothing annoys me more than receiving a blocked call, barnmother! The good news is that we have an option to prevent these calls from reaching your phone. Usage Controls will allow you to block unwanted calls and much more.

  • (AVC) Is there Any way to prioritize traffic from wireless client (laptop in my case) to AP

    Is there any way to prioritize traffic from wireless client (laptop in my case) to AP …. if i explain the issue in a broad way there is no congestion going on in wired network. When multiple users connect to real presence and all share the same AP. they get real-time output over the call BUT if someone start file-transfer over the same AP the real presence call voice/video get stuck.
    I applied the AVC feature on WLC but as i tested, i think prioritization from my laptop to AP will not happen and the situation remains same.
    Please share if there is any way to prioritize traffic from wireless client (Laptop) to AP only ?

    Hi Vinod,
    Here is the AVC & QoS interaction for upstream & downstream traffic. For downstream it is important you have configured your WLAN with correct QoS profile & 802.1p values as that play a role even though you marking traffic using AVC.
    Upstream1. Packet comes with or without inner DSCP from wireless side (wireless client).2. AP will add DSCP in the CAPWAP header that is configured on WLAN (QoS based config).3. WLC will remove CAPWAP header.4. AVC module on the controller will overwrite the DSCP to the configured marked value in the AVC profile and send it out.Downstream 1. Packet comes from switch with or without inner DSCP wired side value.2. AVC module will overwrite the inner DSCP value.3. Controller will compare WLAN QoS configuration (as per 802.1p value that is actually 802.11e) with inner DSCP value that NBAR had overwritten. WLC will choose the lesser value and put it into CAPWAP header for DSCP.4. WLC will send out the packet to AP with QoS WLAN setting on the outer CAPWAP and AVC inner DSCP setting.5. AP strips the CAPWAP header and sends the packet on air with AVC DSCP setting; if AVC was not applied to an application then that application will adopt the QoS setting of the WLAN.
    I am not sure which controller software version you are running. From AVC perspective, it is good if you could install latest NBAR protocol pack (4.1 for WLC 7.5.x code or 6.3 for WLC 7.6.x code) on your controller.
    Here is the 7.5.x AVC deployment guide which should help you on this
    http://www.cisco.com/en/US/docs/wireless/controller/technotes/7.5/AVC_dg7point5.html
    Like others mentioned, it is very little you can do with respect to upstream direction as AVC kicks in only when traffic hits WLC & not at the AP level.

    Are you leaving the box unchecked to Manually manage music & videos? You don't need to to add anything to the iPhone.
    Simply drag the playlist to the iPhone to manually add it.

  • 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 any way to prevent Aperture from Auto Cropping an image?

    Is there any way to prevent Aperture from auto cropping an image? I use the "Do Not Crop" aspect ratio often and Aperture constantly picks cropping aspects for me, which is driving me crazy. Can I set "Do Not Crop" as the ratio I want on a more permanent basis anyhow? Thanks for the help.
    Chris

    This is a current bug.  Please report it via "Aperture→Send Aperture Feedback".
    Just to clarify, the problem is not auto-cropping, the problem is the the crop tool aspect ratio is arbitrarily set (in my case, always to something close to the current crop aspect ratio).  You can reset it (on a per-crop basis) to "Do not constrain".
    It is very bothersome.
    You might try trashing your prefs.  Details on the Trouble-shooting page.  I have had the bug return more than once.

  • Is there any way to prevent fields from being overwritten when importing data via xdp-file?

    In an pdf-form designed with LCD everytime the form gets merged with an xdp-datafile content of all fields get overwritten, regardless which data-binding (normal, global, none) is assigned to the fields and regardless if the fields are exluded in the xdp-datafile. Is this normal behavior and is there any way to prevent fields from being overwritten?

    The xdp-file is first exported from Acrobat Professional 8 (export data as *.xdp) to get the complete structure. Then in the xdp-file some fields are removed manually and other fields are filled with data. When the modified xdp-file is opened again with Acrobat Professional 8 it grabs the original pdf-form and merges the manually filled fields into the form. With the merge all other fields in the form are overwritten, even if they are not defined in the xdp-file. And that is what I want to avoid. I want to merge the xdp-file into the form and keep the data in fields not defined in the xdp-file.

  • Is there any way to transfer photos from ipod touch (2nd generation

    Is there any way to transfer photos from ipod touch (2nd generation & OS is 4.2.1) to PC? I am struggling a lot. The OS cannot be upgradable beyond 4.2.1
    I am wondering if there could be many other ways to transfer the photos like:
    1. with the help of any android app
    2. ipod touch to iphone/ipod latest version
    3. any 3rd party free softwares (there are paid 3rd party softwares but I dont want to invest)
    I did try some of the options:
    1. I could emailed only 6 photos in one email (I have almost 800 photos and would be time consuming.
    2. I'm trying to access my google account on my ipod but it keeps coming up with "oops! your browser seems to have cookies disabled..." My cookies are not disabled. Safari is the only browser for ipod touch and could not be able to installed not only any new browser but also any iphone apps. Updates for the existing apps not possible at all. So this option of uploading the photos on google drive is ruled out.
    Anybody is there to help me out? Sorry for such a long inventory.
    Thank you!

    If they are in the iPod' Saved Photos album then:
    iOS: Importing personal photos and videos from iOS devices to your computer
    If they were synced to the iPod you need a third-party program like TouchCopy or PhoneView
