Is there any way to completely disable the gyroscope?

My gyroscope is messed up.
The gyroscope app shows it is going bezerk. I don't want to fix it. My only problem is that the iPhone uses it to stabilize videos, so they look fine during shooting but wobbly afterwards. My question is : is there anyway to disable the gyroscope or the gyro video stabilization Another video shooting app that doesn't use the gyro to stabilize would be a great solution too
Thanks ahead

The M7 co-processor is a chip in the phone that collects data on your steps. It is separate from the main processor which means, among other things, that it uses less battery life than step tracking using just the accelerometer as the iPhone 5 and previous did. It does not use cellular data to track your steps. Again, it is not the app that's tracking your steps, it's the co-processor. But, no, the co-processor can't be turned off.
I'm not sure that there's any particularly nefarious purpose to which the information on the number of steps you take every day could be put. However, if you're concerned about people accessing data from your phone (and there's a lot more sensitive data on most people's phones than that), put a passcode on the phone.
Best of luck.

    Hi Peace, Clyde,
      Thanks for information. Using the API  UIApplicationUserDidTakeScreenhotNotification (iOS7)  send the notification after the screenshot taken.  Using this api is it possible to block the screen shot caputure option.
    Thanks and Regards,

  • Is there any way to completely disable Mail or remove the icon?

    Our iPads are being distributed to students and I really want to remove the mail feature. Another possibility would be to keep their login info from saving.
    Any suggestions.

    HI,
    Kappy got the mail part.
    You can turn off Autofill for Safari if anyone is accessing web based e-mail.

  • Is there any way to lock/disable the keyboard?

    For example to disable the buttons when I want to clean it?

    You could turn off the computer. Actually, you should turn it off when doing stuff like cleaning the keys.

  • Is there any way to COMPLETELY disable snapping automation?

    I'm trying to create automation lines, specifically region automation using the pop up window below the piano roll in the single screen format. (so when I open up the piano roll and then click the icon in the lower left corner, and then select "Expression" from the pop up menu in the upper left corner of that panel)
    It constantly wants to snap to some kind of grid when I first select a node to move. If I move it around a bit I can then position it exactly where I want to, but it won't just move to the exact position that it needs to be when I first start to grab the node. It's REALLY annoying!!!! I'm trying to create natural sounding expression, but this is making it unnecessarily difficult!
    I've tried making sure "snap automation" is not checked, and that my snapping is set to ticks. But still it wants to snap when I first start to move the node. Bad Logic, no!
    Hope you can help.
    Keith

    Yeah, that's even more restrictive - it only moves it up or down at a time. Not that it's not useful.
    But what I really want to do is just precisely move my automation without a lot of fuss! Any ideas?

  • Is there a way to completely eliminate the sound clicking feedback noise?

    I know there´s an option in the sound window, under sound effects that says ¨Play feedback when volume is changed" but the thing is, with that on, if I hit shift I can hear the sound clicking again, and that's exactly what I don't want (Kind of a dumb idea if you ask me). I work as a sound technician and I play sounds from my mac to the speakers at a theatre, and at times I may need to use the volume on the mac (sometimes the mixer is unavailable). I had never noticed this "play feedback when volume is changed" feature until yesterday, and I'm so used to hitting the shift key SO MUCH that I might do it unconciously at the show, and that's a risk I can't take, so for now I'm keeping the feature enabled, but is there any way to completely remove the sound so I don't run the risk of having that sound click during playback?

    Well, like I said, file a feature request with them to address this.
    I've actually already done that today for you, since apparently no one ever likes to fill them out and ask for changes that make logical sense.
    Bottom line, if you have disabled the sound, stop holding down the shift key when you adjust sound.  Sounds (pun intended) to me like you knew already why this happens, yet you insist on holding down button combinations when you know the final behavior.  In the words of Steve Jobs... "You're holding it wrong."

  • I haven't used my i-pod in forever and forgot the password! It was disabled but is currently not. Is there any way I can delete the password on the computar instead of going to a Apple store? Please help:)

    Connect the iOS device to your computer and restore via iTunes. Place the iPod in Recovery Mode if necessary to allow the restore.

  • HT1212 for an iTouch 4 my young daughter thinks she remembers her password now but we have already exceeded the attempts and it says "iPod is disabled" connect to iTunes.  Is there any way we can get the device to allow another attempt?

    My 7 year old daughter has an iPod Touch 4 and she used the wrong password too many times.  She thinks she remembers her password now but we have already exceeded the attempts and it says "iPod is disabled" connect to iTunes.  Is there any way we can get the device to allow another attempt?  We are traveling this week so don't have access to the serial number or the computer that was used to originally set up her iTouch.  I don't even know what operating system it's on and can only see the home screen.

    Restoring the iPod will do nothing to his iPhone.
    When you restore it wipes the iPod clean no matter what computer you use.
    The only plus to doing it form your home computer is if you have a backup stored there, then you can restore from the backup once it's done wiping.
    If you are away form your home computer, go ahead and use the computer you have to restore it, then when you get home, you can restore form any backup you may find. You can use this to help you do that when you get there: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766

    is there any way to completely wipe my hard drive clean without losing my operating system

    Stellar Wipe Mac is a wiping software that wiper a hard drive beyond the scope of recovery. You can select from the software which drive to wipe leaving the OS X intact. Else, if the drive is a single partition then no software will be able to wipe without wiping the OS X. So be careful.

  • Is there any way to hook into the SQL report pagination process?

    I have a SQL report (based on EMP) with a radiogroup row selector.
    The scenario 1 and 2 are in place
    1) When the employee row radio group is clicked the P900007_JOB the text item is populated with the JOB for the employee.
    2) When the page is initially displayed or submitted via the button the first row’s radio group is programmatically clicked and therefore populates the additional job information in P900007_JOB
    Info (radio Group) Employee No Name
    (+) 7369 SMITH
    () 7499 ALLEN
    () 7521 WARD
    P900007_JOB CLERK
    1-3 Next>
    Once the report has been displayed and the next or previous pagination is used then none of the radio groups will be selected and the data in the P900007_JOB text item will still display the job of the last selected employee row.
    What I require is on pagination some sort of mechanism to either
    a) Call the page_init() that should then set the first row as selected and populate the text item via the programmatic click. (preferred option)
    b) OR blank out the additional text item P900007_JOB.
    Is there any way to hook into the pagination process?
    I have a work around – Set the ‘Enable Partial Page Refresh’ to ‘No’ but this means a full refresh every time the pagination is used.
    Details of my page
    Report Region (Based on EMP table) – radio group as a row selector
    select     APEX_ITEM.RADIOGROUP(1,EMPNO,'X21',null) CHECKRG, EMPNO,
         ENAME,
         JOB
    from     EMP
    Report Attributes -
    Report template :- P900007_ROWTEMPLATE (custom template see later)
    Report Attributes Substitution :- id="emp_report" (used in page_init see later)
    Enable Partial Page Refresh :- Yes
    Columns – All columns are selected as show but job is left out of the template below.
    P900007_JOB - Text item in report region (disabled does not save state). Populated with the employees job when the radio group is clicked.
    Control region :- HTML region that just holds a button <GO> just to submit the page and redirect back to the same page.
    P900007_ROWTEMPLATE (named column row template)
    Row template 1
    <tr style="cursor: hand; cursor: pointer;" onmouseover="row_mouse_over(this, 1)" onmouseout="row_mouse_out(this, 1)" #HIGHLIGHT_ROW# ">

    Anybody any ideas? Should I be looking down the route of using my own pagination buttons and adding my code to this?
    There seems to be a routine $a_report that I can use for the pagination but I am finding it difficult to get the current first and last record values that I would need to pass. I've seen references to below in the form but when I'm using partial refresh they do not seem to change.

  • Is there a way to temporarily disable the iPod in the iPhone. I am trying to stream from an app and it gets overridden by the iPod initializing

    Is there a way to temporarily disable the iPod within my iPhone. I am trying to stream music using an app and a dock on my Sony AIR and the stream is over ridden by the iPod starting up.

    First of all, an idle threat is one that a person has no intention of carrying out. In the past 16 months that I have had this phone I have become less and less satisfied and found that it is like much of today's technology....over rated and under performing. The one thing that I have never been accused of is not wanting, or not giving help but when a company makes itself unavailable to resolve issues and leaves it to forums run by users helping users, it speaks more about the company than anything else they could do. As I said, I do not make idle threats and I did not threaten you in any way. Guess I'll call this topic done with as it is not and was not the intent to get a war started    

  • Is there any way to not use the plugin container for firefox?

    Is there any way to not use the plugin container for firefox? Ever since I updated, my firefox browser has been crashing almost every day and it always says that the plugin container crashed, but the rest of firefox freezes up as well, so I am forced to end the process itself.

    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Plugin-container_and_out-of-process_plugins
    You can set the prefs dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.* to false on the about:config page to disable the plugin-container process.

    dom.ipc.plugins.enabled.npswf32.dll (Flash)

  • Is there a way to completely disable tabs (removing all tab related menu options) for firefox 10?

    Is there a way to completely disable tabs (removing all tab related menu options) for firefox 10. I hate tabs and recent changes to the menus make incorrect selection of 'open in new tab' when what I want is 'open in new window' a common and unwelcome occurrence.

    You can hide menu items and move them up / down in the menu with the Menu Editor extension. <br />
