Possible to disable all notifications in iOS 5?

In iOS 4, when I wanted to take a nap, I would go to settings->notifications->off. That would disable all notifications, so I would only be woken by a phone call or a text message, not by a notification. In iOS 5, I no longer see a way to turn off all notifications. The only way to do it is to silence or turn off my phone, but then I will miss important calls and text messages. Is there a way to turn off all notifications while leaving the ringer on, without having to turn off the notifications app-by-app?
If not, I hope Apple restores this functionality.

God, this is annoying. I tried the workaround suggested to turn off cellular data and wi-fi. This almost solved the problem. But I quickly discovered that it didn't work quite the way I expected it to. I turned off data and wi-fi and went to take a nap. I was awoken by a reminder (apparently, those are activated by the iPhone, rather than pushed by the cloud). And then, when I re-enabled cellular data and wi-fi, I received an iMessage from my wife that she had sent a few minutes earlier. I had read elsewhere that SMS/MMS would go through even if data and wi-fi were turned off, but apparently that's not the case with iMessages (if someone else has experience with this, please confirm). In iOS 4, I could turn off notifications with the click of a button, in which case I would be awoken by text messages and unbothered by calendar reminders, which is exactly what I wanted. Now all I've got is a clumsy workaround that gives me the opposite result.
I read that if you plug something into the headphone jack, you'll only hear the iPhone speaker if the phone rings. I'd be interested to know whether you hear the speaker when an SMS/MMS/iMessage arrives as well (which is what I want), and in no other circumstances. Maybe I'll experiment with this after I finish my nap. If someone else knows whether this is an effective workaround, please post here.
And if anyone knows of a better workaround, please post that as well.
By the way, I've left feedback at
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html I encourage all of you to do the same.

"Settings unavailable" in iOS app. And cannot uncheck "Disable all notifications" on web.

I guess this problem started a few months back, when there was two "disable all notifications" checkbox in the settings. I happened to check both of them, and later, Spotify found out that they have put 2 boxes of the same function and removed one of them. I'm guessing that the issue started at that exact moment. The box was removed from both iOS and web. My setting got stuck "checked" and cannot be unchecked. Just guessing. What else could be causing this? Why everytime I uncheck "Disable all notifications" and save it, it gets checked again and it is impossible to uncheck with any browser on any platform, why? Why I see that "Setting Unavailable" page on my iPhone? I made sure Spotify app's notifications are on in iOS's settings. I believe, only someone from the team will be able to solve this by tweaking my account's setting file on the server side. I see no other solutions.

I am having the same problem on iPhone 5 and what's more on desktop Mac OS application I am not receiving any new album notifications for about 3 months now. This is really annoying for I'm following about 360 artists and there's no simpler way of getting to know new album releases.

Disable All Notifications

How can I temporarily disable all notifications on iPhone iOS 7? Is like to do this to conserve the battery or while in a netting and the Do Not Disturb still displays notifications.
Thanks in advance!

Hi santiagofromtampa,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
The Do Not Disturb feature doesn't stop notifications, it just silences them. However, if you set your iPhone to Airplane mode, you would not be able to receive any notifications because they require a cellular or Wi-Fi connection. The articles below will explain:

IPad 3 and iOS 7 , can't see the messages on lock screen, all notifications before iOS 7 were immediate, now they don't show up

Since updating to iOS 7 my messages don't show up on lock screen, notifications on email and Facebook were immediate before, not anymore. Anyone can help?

Yes! everything is on, I even turned it off and then on again, nothing, I can't get the messages showwing up while I am reading a book like before, frustrating!

How do i disable ALL notifications from lock screen?

I do not want ANY notifications on my lock screen. This is a security issue. How do i disable them, other than individually editing preferences for each individual app, and remembering to do this every time i install a new app?

Possible to disable all internet access on iPhone?

I'd like to get rid of all browsing on my phone. I've disabled Safari and App Store using restrictions. The problem is that there are several downloaded apps I'd like to keep that have built-in browsing. Is there a way I can keep these apps but get rid of their browsing capability?
Simply put, I don't want there to be any way to browse on my phone. How can this be done?
Thanks!

Is it possible to disable all funktions in the loocking screen, even turn off button (also for security reasons if lost cannot be turned of until code entered or battery low....)?

Hello, is it possible to turn of all functions in the locking screen? even the turn off function (also for security reasons / so that it cant be turned of while using find your iphone?)

Yes of course, i know... havn`t lost it but however makes it harder to steal (get bettery out of it or find an area with no cellular connection which are well developed here isnt that easy as just to turn off the device).
It only makes it marginally harder to steal. There are many ways to defeat Find my iPhone; turning it off is only one of them. Others:
Remove the SIM
Wrap in aluminum foil
Drop in a shoplifter's bag or backpack that is metal lined
Run the battery down
Connect to a computer and restore the phone
Requiring a passcode to turn the phone off would also make the millions of users whose phone was not stolen very annoyed that they can't easily turn off their phone.

Is it possible to disable all web based features when no wifi is available?

I'm interested in buying a Firefox phone but I only what to use web based services when a wifi connection is given because my cell phone contract does not cover internet usage properly. Is this possible?

No, not really. I can't take you up on your advice and use delegates. The use case excludes PC all together - there is no computer nearby to be used. In my case they need to make and receive phone calls, be able to transfer calls, and have
a voice mail feature. Lync Edition device does not accommodate this use case well. Here are the issues so far.
1. You can't transfer calls unless phone is unlocked. There is a way to change that trough policy, but the phone lock policy works on per site basis. On a small deployment like ours with a single site this means phone lock for everyone or no
one.
2. Phone shows error about "Exchange integration" as we discussed above. Due to interface design choices this means that "menu" button is obscured form view. That makes it impossible for uninformed user to transfer a call.
Here is the bottom line the way I see it: the Lync Edition Phone is great for an office (cubical farm) environment, but when time comes to deal with special use cases the assumptions Lync/Exchange team made backfire. I'd have to go to Lync Server compatible
phone like Polycom VVX to get around phone lock issue. In Polycom world that is configurable on per phone basis, as, one would argue, it should be. Polycom have bugs of their own though - you can't make "blind transfer" a default method of transfer.
So, no good solution so far.

Is it possible to disable - Outlook Calendar Email Notifications?

Hi all, hope you are well.
I have recently had a query from a PA to an MD where she makes a change to an appointment in his calendar even a simple edit, he obviously receives notification of this change. I have looked pretty much all over and am not familiar with such a function but
is anyone aware if it possible to disable this function as that is what they are asking for to happen.
So she manages his calendar and when she makes changes he receives the email notification, the question is simply is anyone aware of a way to disable this function? I'm of the opinion that if there is it will be a global rather than explicit function.
The other option I thought was to setup a rule in Outlook to delete such notifications I guess?
EXCHANGE 2010 AND OUTLOOK 2010 are in play here
Any help greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Disable signature notifications?

Is it possible to disable the notifications and the blue bar from the signature panel?
I have been going back and forth Acrobat's preferences a few times but I can't seem to find an option to disable the signature notifications like "At least one signature requires validating." or "Signed and all signatures are valid."
I don't need that functionality and it wastes a lot of screen estate for such a small warning, basically it is just an empty blue bar stretching from left to right with a few words in it. What's that about? And I have to click it to make it go away.
I've unchecked Verify signatures when the document is opened in Preferences > Security but unfortunately that didn't help.

In addition to turning off automatic verification, turn off the forms document message bar: Edit > Preferences > Forms > Always hide forms document message bar

HT4314 Is there a way to disable GameCenter notifications?

I have never been fond of GameCenter, it always seemed pointless and half baked. After updating to iOS 7, however, what was once a mere irritation has become a loathing disdain. The notifications take up a third of the screen and are a complete eyesore.
I want to disable them by any means necessary, if I could delete GameCenter I would have by now.
Any help would be appreciated, I have already tinkered in settings and in GC itself and have found little if any actual customization to the entire application, it's an embarrassment considering how long GC has been around.

It will still ask me if I want to log in (I don't). After I tell it no a bunch of times, when opening a game it will show a popup window in the middle of the screen saying that there was a Game Center Authentication Error: "The requested operation has been cancelled or disabled by the user" - requiring me to hit OK to dismiss it.
If I do login, it will display a "Welcome Back!" banner at the top of the screen when I open a game.
I want them all gone. I have disabled all notifications for Gamecenter. I have moved Gamecenter into "Do Not Include" for notifications. I have enabled Restrictions, and disabled everything I could find related to Gamecenter.
To put it simply, I don't want banners taking up huge portions of the screen, or popup windows I have to close manually. If Notifications does not control them, what does?

How to disable all ssl checking - sec_error_ca_cert_invalid

Is it possible to disable all SSL checking of any kind within firefox?
I'm stuck with this error. (copied from another post) https://support.cdn.mozilla.net/media/uploads/images/2014-08-04-14-05-02-bc62ea.png
I have already set mozillapkix to false. I do not want to have to import self-signed certs for all my servers into firefox. I also deal with 'broken ssl', like incomplete certificate chains, etc.. on load balancers, or other odd devices.
I had a version of nightly that was working with mozillapkix set to false, but it looks like it auto-updated:( so it is at 33.0.2 now, and no longer likes my self-signed certs again. (Which reminds me I need to turn off auto-update if possible).
If there is no way to completely disable ssl checking in Firefox, is there a nightly build version, or prior build version (I forget what version this new ssl checking began), that I can use that will avoid this stringent ssl checking (why there is no 'add exception' is still confusing...)?

If this is a major headache, you can use the Extended Support Release version of Firefox 31. I believe the preference to disable use of PKIX still works in that version. You could test with the "Portable Apps" build first before switching.
More info on ESR: http://www.mozilla.org/firefox/organizations/
Portable build (unofficial) for testing: http://portableapps.com/apps/internet/firefox-portable-esr (uses its own local profile, exit your normal Firefox first)

Disable all skins

Is it possible to disable all skins in Oracle Webcenter Portal, 11g?
I get about 300kb of css as default. I don't want to use any of the default css since I'd like to write my own css.
I've tried to extend the "empty" skin without success. Also I've tried to extend a non existing skin with the result just getting the default skin anyway.
I'm looking for a way to disable all skins, and use a css in the Web content folder instead.
Any ideas?

The links you provided does not describe how to disable skins.No, the other just describes how to adjust it.
I do also wonder why there is 26k lines in the default skin.There is a sentence: "ADF uses a concept called Skin Selectors to associate styles with particular ADF components." I read it as before you disable something (a skin selector), you should be aware of what gets broken. Note that if you allow customizations/personalizations via Composer you might not know in ahead which components will users add to their pages in runtime.
