Turn Off Internet

I am looking for an app or even settings that will turn off Internet access except via Wi-Fi .
Finding even if i am connected via Wi-Fi some applications ask for Internet access and saying Yes presuming they are going to use the Wi Fi connection they then proceed to connect via network providers internet charged connection .
Simple Internet via Network OFF .
Network Internet connection required then i have to actually switch it on .

There probably is not. +Settings > General > Network > Enable 3G > Off+ will just turn off 3G - meaning the phone will use EDGE or GPRS instead of the faster network, but it will still use data. Not sure that you can delete the Cellular Data Network settings, either, as those are not accessible on a locked phone like mine. call your carrier and have them deactivate your data plan. But that defeats one of the main reasons for having an iPhone, IMO.

How do I turn off internet recovery in Mountain Lion?

I need to turn off internet recovery in Mountain Lion. The reason is if you use internet recovery you can access safari and although parental controls are on, internet is unmonitored. I want to ensure my MBP is secure from the darker parts of the internet and thus I don't want there to be any unmonitored internet access.
Is there a way to turn off internet recovery or is it hardwired into Mounatin Lion?
Seb

Open firmware password may be the way to do it. Mind you, a clever enough person can bypass that, but it takes more effort than it usually is worth. Put a hidden camera in the room if you are worried something will happen, and backup the data only when you are present. And if you forget the open firmware password, you may have locked yourself out for good anyway.

Can't turn off internet sharing

My brand new MacBook Pro has been working perfectly--until out of the blue internet sharing turns on everytime I boot up. I have never used internet sharing and certainly don't want to now, because I can't use my wireless network with it on.
My internet connection has been working flawlessly and I made no changes whatsoever (it simply was on once after booting up, and now is on forever), but I CAN'T turn off internet sharing. In my internet sharing preference panel it says that internet sharing is already off, but my airport menu bar says it is on. This is becoming most irritating. Any suggestions?

Are you sure this is not just a neighbour's wireless network?

I turned off Internet access, using airport timed access control. Now, I can't turn it back on. The base station can't be found. Please help.

Is there anyway i can put a stop to emails between a set period of time say 10pm - 6am without turning off internet connection

Is there anyway i can put a stop to emails between a set period of time say 10pm - 6am without turning off internet connection.

The only ways in iOS would be to stop using push mail or timed fetch mail and switch the account(s) to manual fetch. That way, you only get mail when you open the mail app. to use it.
Or, you could selectively disable wifi and cellular data - voice calls and SMS texts would still come through then.
Other than that, I cannot think of a way to selectively disable email by itself.

Is it possible to turn off "Internet Connect / Authentication Failed" msgs

Greetings and thank you for your time.
My network connect is set up to automatically connect wirelessly or through Ethernet...this is fine.
However, every time I open my notebook or start it up,
If my computer cannot connect through those two, (airport is off/no cable attached) it constantly sends the pop-up message: "Internet Connect / Authentication Failed". 3 times over a period of 15min.
Is there any way to turn this warning off ?
I am not trying to access a connection & Mail/Safari are closed.
It makes it frustrating when you arrive at a meeting to start a presentation and you keep getting this popup that blocks all functions till you acknowledge it and click "ok".
Any suggestions other then turning off auto connect (which I appreciate when I do turn on Airport or plug in an ethernet cable.
Thank you for any support on this.
Best regards, T

Greetings T, and Welcome to the Discussions!
We just have to find what it is that's tying to connect/call home, and disable it.
Common examples are Network Time... Set Date & Time Automatically.
Software Update... Check for Updates...
Dashboard Widgits & Rss Feeds.
Automount Shares.
Mail automatically checking for Mail.
I( was thinking more when I started, but the Berr is...
If all that fails, maybe get Little Snitch, it tells you when a program tries to send info to the internet so you can see what's going on in the background!

How do I turn off Internet Tethering?

Often when I am connected to free WiFi, I find my iPhone-4 going through the motions of Internet Tethering - which appears to curtail all other use of the WiFi.
I went to the Apple or AT&T sites for help - they show an instructions screen where the "Internet Tethering" "button" in the Setting/Genenal/Network screen has an On/Off switch. Mine does not - it simply shows either "Set Up Internet Tethering" or "Internet Tethering".
I don't need internet tethering - how do I stop my iPhone-4 from trying to do it and in doing so curtailing my wifi access?
Thanks

Turning off Internet Connect automatic prompt

I have a Verizon Broadband Express wireless card for internet connections. I constantly have to turn off the prompt to start Internet Connect function. To try and stop this, I have gone to preferences and turned off the "Start internet connection when needed" function. It is annoying and distracting while giving a presentation.
PLEASE TELL ME how to get rid of this painful interruption.

Droid Razr - how do it turn off internet radio?

Not sure how to turn off an app. Turned on my music and when I go into Manage apps, if I highlight STOP it cautions me that I could cause a problem. How do I know app is turned off or how do I turn it off (New phone, new user, need help)

Well usually when your in an app Say Like Slacker for Instance and your Listening to it But you want to Stop it. Well you would hit the Pause button then Tap your Menu then you will see an option to Exit once you do it will stop. But one thing you can remember that Android is Set up to were you can go from one app to another and the System will adjust to it.

Turning off Internet Explorer 7 Standards Mode via registry? Help!

Hi all
In his infinite wisdom, my predecessor rolled out a few PCs with Windows 7 Home premium. There are a few scattered around at various sites of ours that connect back to Central office via VPN. Due to the functions they preform these PCs cant be domained and
just use local accounts.
We have a new web based finance system, that does not run correctly in Internet Explorer 7 Standards Mode - for the rest of the company I have turned it off via a GPO, but for these PCs (that dont even have local GP) I'm struggling to find the correct registry
entry to disable Internet Explorer 7 Standards Mode! Help!
The PCs are Windows & Home 32bit - I have searched and search and found nothing. Cheers guys

Hi StevoHX,
Thanks for posting in TechNet Forum.
I will do more test on this requirement and will let you know the result as soon as possible.
I wonder if we don't disable the Internet Explorer 7 Standards Mode, could you open the web based finance system？
Best regards,

Virus Software Turned Off & Internet Connection Problem

My laptop has been slowing down, but it was fine otherwise. A few days ago, I turned it on and received warning messages from the HP Action Center and HP Support Center that my Kaspersky Anti-Virus and Anti-Spyware software was no longer on. I never turned them off and they've been working fine for 6 months or so, so it's not like I just installed them recently. Since the problem started, I've tried several times to turn them back on, but the computer just doesn't do anything. It asks if I trust Kaspersky and want to run the app, I click on yes, and then nothing happens. I've also tried to run the software by using the Kaspersky desktop icon, but that won't do anything either. The same time that this problem occurred, I also lost my ability to fully connect to the internet (DSL connection). I can get to the Firefox homepage, but whenever I try to get to any other website, even simple ones like Google, nothing happens. I've tried everything I can think of to fix these problems (except for using the refresh/restore option, which I'd like to avoid if possible). I've power-cycled the modem, run diagnostics and network checks, and I installed MalwareBytes from a USB drive and ran that scan, but it didn't find any problems. At the same time that these other problems began, I did see a brief notice that said that a Windows update failed, but I don't know if that caused these other issues or if it just failed because the other issues prevented the update. Kaspersky's tech support has not been very helpful. Does anyone have any suggestions? Keep in mind that I can't access the internet from the affected computer, so I can't download anything directly to it. Thanks in advance for your help.

Turn off "internet connection" on 3G

Hello,
I use a pre-paid plan on my iPhone 3G, and it's often that a friend click on something (or a app tries to connect) that requires a connection and takes most of the credit on my plan.
I only use the internet using the free wi-fi hotspots available in my area and not much often. So I turn it off to save battery, however when I turn if off it starts using GPRS using my paid credits.
So I would like to block the access, any idea?
Thank you all in advance.

You're welcome.
SMS messages are transferred via the same avenue as calls.
Blocking data access at the source for your account will prevent ANY internet functions with your iPhone unless you are connected via wi-fi. This will also eliminate the visual voicemail feature with the iPhone. All visual voicemail messages are downloaded to the iPhone via the cellular network only.
Your cellular provider can block data access or internet access via their cellular network for your account, which is the only way to prevent any data access over the cellular network with the iPhone.
As long as you have cellular reception, the iPhone is designed to have an internet connection - via wi-fi or cellular, with the iPhone switching from an available wi-fi network that you have access to the cellular network automatically and seamlessly and back again.
