Turned off auto-scanning, turned on Switch control. Why don't I have control on my screen?

I saw this video on Facebook about switch control about the head gestures etc. I thought I would give it a try. Turned off auto scanning (DOnt know what this is) as the video instructed, then turned on switch control. I set one of the switches to increase volume so I threw on some music to test it out. (didn't work). So I locked my phone. When I turned it on, I could not do anything on my phone (swipe to unlock, pause music, volume up/down nothing!) I tried the bail out feature, and nothing.
HELP??

Why don't I have Boot Camp Control Panel?

I am currently asking this in Yahoo! Answers as well:
I just used Boot Camp Assistant around a week ago to install Windows 7 Ultimate on my Macbook Pro with Retina Display (and if it also helps find a solution: I'm also using Mountain Lion). At first, certain keyboard functions that can be used in the Mac OS (such as brightness and volume adjustment; oh, + the trackpad functions) that couldn't be used in Windows didn't exactly bother me since I was able to manage without them... until I started to play online games - which is the main reason I had to dual boot my macbook. When I already found it annoying to continuously click control+left click to perform right click, I started to look for solutions, and I noticed that most people online have said, "Oh, simply adjust your settings in the BOOT CAMP CONTROL PANEL. There should be this DIAMOND in your task bar; click on it so that you can apply changes you want. It should be there after you have installed Windows..." ... Well, thing is: in my case, it DOESN'T APPEAR! "Check your control panel," they say. "You will surely find it there." Check for me, if you will, because I seriously have no clue why I can't find it, even after checking using the Search bar...
Now... why don't I have Boot Camp Control Panel? I find it really strange how it doesn't appear in mine when it does in most of other people's... I kinda dislike the idea of reinstalling Windows, because over the week, I've downloaded several drivers and other applications (mostly games). Is there any way I could get it without having to undergo the process of deleting and uninstalling files? I need my Mac OS for school and office work (don't ask) and I need to have my entertaining pastimes using Windows. Please don't hesitate to suggest as many ideas as you can...
Thank you!

It appears from your description that you did not download and install the Windows support software. It was one of the first menu items you saw when you started Boot Camp Assistant.
Run Boot Camp Assistant again and select the menu option to download the Windows support software. Save this download as described then install it from within Windows.

After turning on, it takes much longer time to turn on. all the functions don't work.have to wait a long time

After I turn on my macbook, it takes a much longer time to turn on. I can move around the arrow, but nothing works. I tried to click every app, no response. I have to wait a long time and then everything works. Did I do something wrong?
Thanks

Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).

TS4036 my ipad wifi cellular 16 GB 4G switched off inbetween and is not switching on at all. I have tried to restart by using sleep/wake button, but red slider does not appear. I have recharged battery, still no response. what should i do?

My iPad Wi-Fi cellular 16 GB 4G switched off suddenly, even when the battery was 40% available. It is not switching on again, i have tried restarting by using sleep/wake button, but red slider does not appear. I kept it off like it was overnight, in the morning agin recharged it, but still it is not switching on. it is not responding, except when i connect the charger, it gives a blink noise that recharge has started. I removed the SIM and tried restart it but no response, What should i do to restart it please?

Seems to be working again, I haven't done anything though. And the "wifi" led on my laptop is off, which should mean that the interface is down.
This is driving me crazy I don't understand how the all thing works, if anyone has any tips that would be very nice.
Thanks!

Why don't I have Auto Night mode?

Ever since the upgrade to iOS, I no longer am able to set my view mode without it resetting. In trying to find a solution I keep seeing where people talk about the auto night mode. I don't have that option (see below).
I don't want auto night mode. I want to be able to turn on night mode and iBooks remain that way as before.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!

Have you tried a different book to see if the option appears in it - not all books support the 'auto-night theme' option, so it won't show on all

Switch control settings - prevented from using touch screen

I have turned on switch control and now managed to lock myself out of usdiong the screen all together.
Heres what i set: Settings > general > accessibility > switch control > switches > add new switch > full screen > scanner select item.
with switch control turned on i cannot use the screen at all.
i have tried asking sir to turn it off but he keeps saying "which setting" and triple clicking the home button brings up the switch contol header up but i am still unable to use the screen.
i have read that i can turn on voice control by asking siri, but that brings up a screen where i need to again use the screen.
occasionally i see a blue box travel oer the screen but i dont know how to use this or how to bring it up again.
has anybody got any ideas???

Found it.
For anyone who has this problem::
check this video http://youtu.be/2W3Z0kSiL7o
If you somehow turn on "Screen" select item, it renders any touch useless.
Here's what you can do, even if you have your phone password protected.
Use Siri to turn on Assistive Touch.
1. Hold down home button and ask siri: Turn on Assistive Touch
2. May have to send a second command: on.
Now your screen should be accessible.

How to disable switch control when your Siri doesn't work.

There's alot of people who managed to turn their switch control off by Siri or by triple click. How ever I disabled my Siri and was stuck at lock screen with no screen feedback. Went thru alot of online remedys and all didn't work. I'm sure there are a few who had this problem. So what I did was -
i hold home and power button to off my i pad. Then turn it on again. (When it just loaded to main screen you will have a few sec before switch control works again. )So when you are in main screen , triple click to get the accessibility box and off switch control. By tapping on the option. It worked for me. Hope it works for you. The Internet don't have much to help ref switch control which is irritating. Hope this post helps.

I am so sorry for sending the same thread for so many times, there is a problem with my brower.

When I turn on my iPad the grey 'brightness slider' is in the centre of the screen and I can't get rid of it. I've tried switching on / off 'auto-brightness' in 'settings' but it won't go away. What am I doing wrong? Any advice gratefully received.

That folder with the question mark icon means that the MacBook can't find the boot directory. That can either mean it can't find the hard drive or the Operating System data on the hard drive is somehow corrupted.
Put your install DVD into the optical drive (CD/DVD drive) and reboot. As soon as you hear the boot chime, hold down the "c" key on your keyboard (or the Option key until the Install Disk shows up). That will force your MacBook to boot from the install DVD in the optical drive.
When it does start up, you'll see a panel asking you to choose your language. Choose your language and press the Return key on your keyboard once. It will then present you with an Installation window. Completely ignore this window and click on Utilities in the top menu and scroll down to Disk Utility and click it. When it comes up is your Hard Drive in the list on the left?
If it is then click on the Mac OS partition of your hard drive in the left hand list. Then select the First Aid Tab and run Repair Disk. The Repair Disk button won't be available until you've clicked on the Mac OS partition on your hard drive. If that repairs any problems run it again until the green OK appears and then run Repair Permissions.
If your hard drive isn’t recognized in Disk Utility then your hard drive is probably dead.

How do you turn off auto renewal if the button doesn't respond with on/off switch?

I am trying to cancel a subscription at the end of the contract period, but the auto renewal button on app store account management button doesn't respond when tapped to allow the auto renewal to be cancelled.

Hi Jerry,
The windows i am using is Windows 7 Professional. The auto-correct page you sent me was not the problem i was talking about. I have taken some print screen shots of the actual problem i was talking about and i have numnbered from 1-4 so you can see exactly what is happening.

How can I turn off auto-capitalization for Mail in Mountain Lion?

How can I keep mail.app from capitalizing the first letter of sentences? I have turned off auto-correct both at the system level and in Mail, and yet I cannot seem to keep Mail from capitalizing the first letter?

Thanks - this helped me track it down - some Textexpander setting apparently got switched when I updated.

Pages: how do I turn off auto formatting and auto indenting!

I've got Pages 5.2.2 and for the life of me can't figure out how to turn off auto formatting!
When I hit return to move text to a new line, Pages automatically indents the new line, creating a new paragraph which is not what I want at all.
I'm using a blank template and have not altered the default settings at all. Any geniuses out there who can help?

If not already present, turn on your document rulers via View > Show Rulers. Does a ¯ symbol appear by itself, or is it accompanied by an inverted triangle below it? The first symbol indicates that you have a First Indent set to other than 0. The inverted triangle says that you also have the Left indent set to the First indent amount.
In Pages, if a First indent is set, any hard return will invoke a new paragraph with an auto-indent corresponding to the First Indent amount. First lines will be indented, and subsequent lines are flush left margin (unless Left indent is not 0). In word processing, we only do hard returns when we deliberately want a new paragraph. If you want to force an end of a sentence, without forming a new paragraph, with/out auto-indent effect, use either shift+enter, or control+enter.
The First, and Left indent settings in Pages v5.2.2 are here:
Toolbar > Format > Text > Layout

Safari 7.1 won't load large images on MacBook Air. Turning off Auto Graphics is not an option.

When I try to load a large image with Safari 7.1, I get a black box instead of an image.
Chrome and Firefox load the image just fine.
This is a known problem and others have resolved it by turning off Auto Graphics Switching.
However, my version of MacBook does not have the capability to turn off Auto Graphics Switching under the Energy Saver preferences. (I guess I have the GPU or chip or whatever that doesn't provide that option.)
Are there any workarounds?
Here are two threads about the same problem, but the solutions don't work for me:
safari 7 won´t load large images...
Safari 7.0.1 does not load large images

Safari > Preference > Advanced
Checkmark the box for "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
"Develop" menu will appear in the Safari menu bar
Enable Images.
Make sure that"Disable Images" is not enabled.
Best.

Turned off auto-scanning, turned on Switch control. Why don't I have control on my screen?
