Turn phone off, but keep wi-fi on?
Is this possible? When I turn Airplane Mode on it shuts off the Wi-Fi. I will be traveling and don't want to use my phone (or have it access a network), but want to function with Wi-Fi. Is this possible?
That was so easy! Thank you. I don't know why I never thought of it. I just assumed that it shut off the wi-fi. Thanks!

Turn text off but keep phone on
Any way besides going into settings to turn texting off and allow for incoming calls, ie an application. Want to turn texting off at night so not be disturbed by noise but still allow for emergent calls. Thanks
In a word, no.
The iPhone does not include a setting for different times of the day to have all sounds enabled and have some but not all sounds enabled at night.
There is no 3rd party application that provides for this and there won't be one. 3rd party apps do not have access to private APIs with the iPhone. Such a feature or option must be provided by Apple. -
Please help new (senior) convert to Mac Pro (OS X). Am following the 'switching to a Mac' portable genius 2nd ed, and as it advised, I bought an external hard drive (a Mac My Word) and partitioned it with one partition for a secondary boot device and another for time machine. Book implied I needed both. Seemed to download OK but now when i plug in the external hard-drive it wants to reboot me fresh all over again. How do I keep the time machine partition going but have the secondary boot device only in case of emergencies? Do I 'eject' that partition- and if so how do I do it from outside the hard drive (I am not game to reattach it currently)
Launch the System Preferences application (under the Apple menu) and select the Startup Disk preference pane. Set your internal drive as the startup disk. Close the window.

I bought a song off of the itunes store on my iphone but it wont play. I even tried to repurchase it but it says that I already purchased it. I have restarted my phone and turned it off but it still won't download or play. HELP!
Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your phone and re-download it via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on it, or the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page. -
My iCloud keeps asking me for a password even when I enter it, it still keeps asking. I have tried turning it off but it doesn't work. It is really annoying!!

Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

Iphone 3gs needs to restore as I cannot turn phone on but cannot restore as unknown error 2001 keeps coming up.
I have tried several times on different computers. Any help or ideas? ThanksHi there Katherine,
I have an article here that addresses this error code and can give you a few more troubleshooting suggestions for this issue:
Resolve specific iTunes update and restore errors
http://support.apple.com/kb/ts3694
Check USB connections
If there’s an issue with the USB port, cable, dock, or hub, or if the device becomes disconnected during restore, try troubleshooting the USB connection, then troubleshooting your security software.
Common errors: 13, 14, 1600-1629, 1643-1650, 2000-2009, 4000, 4005, 4013, 4014, 4016, “invalid response”, and being prompted to restore again after a restore completes.
To narrow down the issue, you can also change up your hardware:
Use another USB cable.
Plug your cable into a different USB port on your computer.
Try a different dock connector (or no dock).
Add (or remove) a USB hub between your device and computer.
Connect your computer directly to your Internet source, with no routers, hubs, or switches.
If you see your error after changing your USB connections, continue to the next section to troubleshoot your hardware.
Thanks for coming to the Apple Support Communities!

After the new update, why does my Bluetooth keep turning itself on? I keep turning it off, but it still finds a way to turn itself back on
hi Apfelwurm,
why do you say it's not normal.
it always switches itself on after i update. it just did again, this time for 7.1.2.. i t also will switch on after a restore.
i never use bluetooth and make sure it's not on for any other reason.
it's been noticed by others too.

When I updated to ios6 my phone is stuck on the loading screen. I've turned it off but nothing is working.
Loading screen is that the Apple Logo?
Try a hard reset, Press and hold the Power and Home buttons until you see the Apple Logo.
If that doesn't work, force the phone into recovery mode and restore using iTunes:
iOS: Unable to update or restore

I just dropped my iphone 4s in water and put it in rice, but when I turn it off it keeps coming back on. What should I do?
If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5 and 5C. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.
You will find respective repair costs in the appropriate link:
iPod Service Support and Costs
iPhone Service Support and Costs
iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit -

Please help my iphone got wet and i dont know what to do. its sitting in rice right now but idk if its broken or not becuse i mad a call off of it and i tried turning it off but it wouldnt turn off. it would turn black then the apple sign would come back on. so i just left it in the rice over night. i woke up to my alarm an it had ben going off for probably 30 min. it finally died. what do i do? should i continue o wait and let it sit in rice or should i try to use it.
Let it sit, my iPhone got water damage, and it costs $200 to get a refurbished one (4S), so that's an option. There is no harm in letting it sit in rice though.
