Using Iphone for calls and Wifi only for emails and safari

I have a new iphone which is uk based and have a pay as you go card inside
what i want is for it too only use pay as you go for calls and wifi (free in my house and office!) for collecting my emails and going online -
i have set - fetch new data to off but my pay as you go card took 5uk pounds in one day.
Now if i take my sim out is works perfect - they way i want it for now but I cannot be contacted on the phone!!! opps
Please assist this novice iphone owner

One of the problems you're up against is that the iphone is designed to always have a data connection. There is no way, currently, to completely eliminate that data connection & still use the iphone as a phone. OS 4.0, when released this summer, will add the capability to completely turn that connection off, but OS 4.0 has not been released yet. When the iphone goes into sleep mode, it will disconnect from WiFi(to save battery) and connect to the cellular data network for any application that might need data. Again, a design feature that cannot be currently overridden.

    You could go to icloud.com on your computer, then download your iCloud calendar as an .ics file as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4910 (under Calendar...icloud.com Calendar), then import this to a supported program on your computer such as Outlook or Mac iCal (if you have one) and sync it to your phone using iTunes; or if you don't have a supported program, import it to an external service such as Google Calendar (see http://www.howtogeek.com/howto/30834/add-an-ical-or-.ics-calendar-to-google-cale ndar/) and sync it to your phone using a gmail exchange account (as explained here: http://support.google.com/mail/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=138740).

    So you have no cellular service but are on Wi-Fi yet iMessage and Facetime are waiting for activation.
    Please step through this article for that scenario.

  • Swapping the blackberry playbook wifi only for a blackberry playbook wifi and cellular.

    Hello there! how possible is it to swap my playbook wifi only for playbook with both wifi and cellular? if possible please let me know.

    Hello lewtha and welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
    Thanks for your question about your BlackBerry PlayBook tablet.
    If you have the first generation tablet which uses Wi-Fi only, it cannot be altered to use mobile networks. 
    The ability to use mobile network and Wi-Fi was introduced to the second generation tablet. You would need to purchase it to have this ability.
    Hope this helps to clarify.

    It's in recovery mode. You don't have a choice. Anything that was on the phone is already gone. If you didn't back it up, there is no way to recover it.

    Yes, that's why I recommend one have more than TimeMachine as a backup because if certain files or folders are corrupted on the TM drive, your not logging into your migrated user account or not be able to transfer it what so ever.
    Then it's a REAL PAIN and costs $99 to bit read the TM drive to get the files out, then it's mess to go through and sort all the empty placeholders from the real files as TM doesn't save duplicates in each state, just uses the previous state's copy if there are no changes.
    If you create the same named user account on the new machine, and simply transfer files via a USB thumb drive and place say music contents into the Music folder, then it will work too.
    Look into making clones of your boot drive, the benefit here is it's bootable, you can access the drive directly to pick and choose files, run the computer just like before etc.

  • FaceTime and iCloud must be signed in to the same Apple ID to use iPhone Cellular Calls.

    FaceTime and iCloud must be signed in to the same Apple ID to use iPhone Cellular Calls.
    This is the error message I receive when I try to add my phone to my Mac for proximity / FaceTime audio calling.  This feature worked until I changed my Apple ID.  I have updated my Apple ID everywhere I can think of updating it.  I've signed out of Apple ID on my Mac, deleted EVERYTHING (calendars, contacts, etc.), signed back in, etc.  I've done the same with my phone, and even done a power-down / reboot and nada.  I keep getting this message from the Mac.
    I can't figure out where else I should look for my old Apple ID to be logged into anything or creating problems.  I've gone over my iPhone and Mac and I'm at a loss.  As an aside (and yes, wrong forum), have lost the ability to do SMS forwarding since the Mac no longer receives the code from my iPhone to allow this feature to work.  This was lost after signing out of the Apple ID on my Mac this afternoon.
    Bluetooth is turned on for both devices.  Both devices are on the same WiFi network.  Both devices otherwise appear to be working correctly with the exception of the problems I'm having with FaceTime and iCloud being signed into the same Apple ID (which they are).
    Thanks in advance,

    (By the way, I should have pointed out in my earlier posting that I'm running OS X Yosemite 10.10.3 on my Mac). I Just installed latest Yosemite update while my iPhone was switched off, and when my Mac restarted, the 'iPhone Cellular Calls' checkbox in the FaceTime preferences was checked and the problem was therefore solved. Switched on my iPhone, still fine. Relief.

  • Cannot Turn On iPhone Cellular Calls - FaceTime and iCloud must be signed in to the same Apple ID to use iPhone Cellular Calls.

    Cannot Turn On iPhone Cellular Calls - FaceTime and iCloud must be signed in to the same Apple ID to use iPhone Cellular Calls.
    I *AM* signed into Facetime and iCloud using the same Apple ID.  Why am I receiving this error all of a sudden?  I make calls using my Mac and need this feature.  I have tried disabling and re-enabling both over a dozen times.  TRUST ME, it is NOT user error -- it is Apple releasing features before they are fully ready error!

  • How to Use synchronous RFC calls during test run for remote accesses

    there is a Setting for the usage of RFC accesses from a tested system
    using eCATT.
    'X' - Use asynchronous RFC calls during test run for remote accesses
    ' ' - Use synchronous RFC calls during test run for remote accesses
    I developed an eCATT as following :
      SAPGUI ( SAPGUI_1 , Target_system_1 ).
      SAPGUI ( SAPGUI_2 , Target_system_2 ).
    My question is how to run the eCATT in a synchronous RFC calls
    PS: I do not want to change the Target_system to the same one in the
    above script of ecatt.Because I need to run it in 2 different Target
    systems sometime.
    for example, I give a Target_system_3 when run this eCATT
    I want the SAPGUI_1 and SAPGUI_2 run the Target_system_3 but not the
    Target_system_1 or Target_system_2 .
    Could you please tell me how to make it without the changes in script?

    This is the standard option value. Asynchronous are not the standard way and used only for very special purposes.

    The commands will be executed in sequence. So each call will be synchronously replayed against TS1 and TS2.
    What is you issue with this standard procedure?
    Kind regards,

    I installed Firefox sync and then used iphone app called FireFox Home and I can syncronize history, tabs and bookmarks. But I am NOT able to syncronize passwords from Firefox in my Macbook to FireFox Home on iPhone so I am very terrible to input my IDs and Passwords with my hands on FireFox Home when I log into Facebook, Twitter etc... Is it issue or something like that? If you have some solutions to make it clear, can you tell me how to syncronize memorized IDs and Passwords for the webs. Thank you.

  • Can I use iphone 4s USB cable to recharge for the new ipad

    Can I use iphone 4s USB cable to recharge for the new ipad

    The iPod, iPad & iPhone cables are identical, however, the chargers are not.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.
