Photos for lock screen problem

When you choose a photo for lock screen or home screen (ios7.2) it will not allow you to move and scale it! It just zooms to the middle bit so the whole photo cannot be displayed! Very annoying apple!

  • TS2401 ive forgotton passcode for lock screen

    I've forgotton passcode for locked screen.  I really do not want to restore to factory settings as I have loads of pictures of my daughter that I do not want to loose... can anyone help?

    if you cannot remember the passcode, you will need to restore your device using the computer with which you last synced it. This allows you to reset your passcode and resync the data from the device (or restore from a backup).
    If you restore on a different computer that was never synced with the device, you will be able to unlock the device for use and remove the passcode, but your data will not be present. Refer to Updating and restoring iPhone, iPad and iPod touch software.

  • Why does image / photo in lock screen appear like background?

    why does image / photo in lock screen appear blurred in ios 7.0.3 on iphone 5?

    Sorry, the image is not visible.
    Some  of the display settings are stored in PRAM. PRAM reset is harmless.

    Thank you for that update.
    I would next backup your device to iTunes with this article:
    iOS: How to back up and restore your content
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    And restore it first as a new device, and verify that it works properly, then restore from your backup with the same article below to ensure that it is still working.
    Use iTunes to restore your iOS device to factory settings

    If it does not work correctly when you set up the phone as a new device, I would next seek service for your iPad:

  • Why doesnt my photo fit for lock screen or home screen ?

    I try to fit pictures for my lock screen but it just zooms in

    Hello Cruachandave,
    Thank you for providing so much detail about the issue you are experiencing when setting a new wallpaper.
    The first thing I recommend is quitting and relaunching the applications on your iPad:
    Double-click the Home button.
    Swipe left or right until you have located the app you wish to close.
    Swipe the app up to close it.
    You can find the full article here:
    iOS: Force an app to close
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht5137
    If you are still seeing the same issue after quitting and relaunching Settings, I recommend restarting your iPad and then resetting if it's still not working:
    Restarting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds until the red "slide to power off" slider appears, and then slide the slider.
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    Note: Reset your device only if you are unable to restart it.
    Resetting your device
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

  • When setting photo as lock screen/home screen wallpaper, quality is reduced

    When setting a photo as the wallpaper for my lock screen/home screen the photo quality is dramatically reduced. This appears to be an issue since updating to iOS 8, as I have not changed my home screen wallpaper yet since updating, and when setting the same photo as my lock screen now, there is a noticeable difference. This only seems to be a problem when using landscape photo. Anyone else had this problem?

    Hi Mara,
    This is apparently a bug in iOS 7. Take a look at the posts to the right under "More Like This". Several users have come up with creative workarounds for this. Hopefully it will be fixed soon in an upcoming release!
    Cheers,

  • What is the bypass code for lock screen

    what is the bypass code for the lock screen on i pod touch

    To restore the iPod to get rid of the lock combination you forgot, just follow these steps....
    1) Plug your iPod into the PC
    2) Wait for iTunes to sync your device like normal and let it back up all of your stuff, since restoring deletes all of your data
    3) Go onto your iPod's menu (The one that shows the memory bar at the bottom)
    4) Locate the Restore button on the screen and click restore
    5) If your not on iOS 5.0.1 yet, it will ask you to download the latest firmware, go ahead download it
    6) When it is done downloading it will take you through the restoration process.
    7) When it asks you if you want to restore it from a backup or set up as new when everything is finished, make sure you select "Back up as new"!!!
    8) Re-Sync your music, apps, photos, mail, contacts, etc. and anything you had before, and you device is just like new.

  • Photo frame lock screen

  • Previous/back button for lock screen (Android)

    I would like to see a previous song button on the lock screen of Android. I dislike having to unlock my phone just to start a song over or to get back to another.

     I didn't do anything specifically, as far as I can remember, other than installing the Spotify app. Of course, these controls do not show up unless I already opened the app beforehand and started playing a song. Once it's already playing, then the controls appear after locking the screen. I even changed my security because I had pattern unlock and changed it to PIN in order to take the screenshot I posted above.But in both security modes (pattern/pin) I can see the controls. My only guess is that it could be something related to the phone model itself. I have a Samsung E7, which has a large screen. I don't know the size of the Sony z3, and I don't have an smaller phone at hand at the moment to test. If this is the issue, then it can be more of a phone model related bug. I'll attach some links with some information that could be helpful for you. Pay close attention to the last one, as it seemed that it was the solution for most of the users. On this link there are several suggestions of apps that may be preventing the music controls to show up in the lock screen. Maybe one of those could help?http://forum.xda-developers.com/google-nexus-5/help/lock-screen-music-controls-disappear-t2514983 Some mention that uninstalling smart key fixed the issue."I just had this problem on my Sony Xperia Z3 Compact. Disabling Smartkey did the trick. Thanks so much guys! I have a feeling fixing this might not be high on Sony's priority list." http://talk.sonymobile.com/t5/Xperia-Z1-Z1s/Problem-with-Music-widget-on-lockscreen-bug/td-p/382277/page/5   I hope it works out for you!

  • White Lock Screen Problem On 4th Gen. iPod Touch.

    I'm having an EXTREMELY fustrating problem with my 4th gen iPod touch (32gb). I have owned my iPod Touch for almost a year and a half now and I haven't had any problems with it until now. I updated to the new iOS 6 and didn't have any problems with it for about two weeks. But after the two week mark, I started having a white screen on my lock screen. I would press the sleep/wake button to make it lock again and pressed it to turn the screen back on and it would go away, (so that's when I thought, "eh, minor glitch, they'll fix it...). But it has been a month now and it has gotten SO much worse it's not even funny... I will have to compromise with pushing the sleep/wake button about 30 times before it will show my lock screen. But after I got it unlocked everything worked absolutley flawless. Now ever since last night I can't get the white screen to go away!!! keep in mind, I have restored it TWICE and still have the same problem. I know I am buying the new iPod Touch but I still think, even though I am out of the yearly warranty, that I should get either an apple 'fixer' to fix it for me for free or an exchange for either the same exact model iPod or the new 5th gen. I never have had such a problem with Apple until now and would expect paying $300 for a brand-new iPod Touch should last me atleast more than a lowsey year and a half...

    Try:
    - Reset the iPod. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Reset all settings
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    - Make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store.

  • The stuck lock screen problem!

    I have tried all suggestions given, but none work! When is Microsoft going to give us an update to fix this problem??

    Hi suzybabie1959,
    I can understand your mood.
    Please explain a bit about the following question for better analyzation:
    1. Have you made any changes before this issue?
    2. What suggestion have you tried?
    3. Do you mean that you can’t use the mouse and keyboard in lock screen?
    Please update the driver as MVP Arnav Sharma mentioned.
    Please open the event viewer and check if there are any related error log. For more information about the event log, please refer to the following article.

  • IMac G5 Graphic Card Replacement for blue screen problem

    When I turn on iMac, I only see blue screen, the apple technician said Need to replace graphic card,  Nvidia Gforce 7600GT 256.
    1, can it install in IMac?  Seem like it work for PC?
    2,  I had blue screen problem several time,  I think I turn on iMac too long, so it burn out graphic card.
    3,  I have 2007 G5 24" screen model,  is any durable and afford graphic card you recommend?
         Where to buy for cheaper price?
         Do I need to change mother board?
    4,  can I replace it by myself?  Any picture or video for graphic card replacement?
    Thank you.

    If you look around, you might be able to find someone who will replace just the chip on the graphics card, which is what usually fails. It will take someone highly skilled; they really have to know what they're doing--it's not an ordinary soldering job.
    Here's someone who found a non-Apple service to do this, and it proved to be far less expensive than a full logic board replacement. But I think this was in the UK.

    Everytime I take a photo on my phone either when it is locked or not, when I come back to my phone to use it next the lock screen has zoomed in and I can not enter my password. I have to either switch the phone off or keep playing with the side button. Its only happened since iOS7 has been installed. Can anyone help?

    On the Home screen, double-tap with three fingers to exit zoom.
    Then go to Settings > General > Accessibility and make sure Zoom is turned Off.
