What exactly does the reset all settings button do on iphone

PLEASE HELP ME

It resets all settings in the Settings app to their default values, unless there are Restrictions set for changing values. This includes the home screen layout.

  • Does the "Reset All Settings" option delete app data?

    I have upgraded from a 16GB iPhone 4S to a 64GB iPhone 6. I restored my new phone from a backup of my old one just so I could transfer app data from one app. All went well with that, but now the app is sending notifications that I can no longer progress because my phone lacks storage space. That may have been true for my 16GB iPhone, but now I have over 43GB of free space on my new iPhone 6, and it's still telling me I'm out of space. I'm thinking this has something to do with the "settings" of my old 4S being transferred in the backup I made. I am willing to try a Settings Reset if and only if it will not affect app data. If it does, what other methods do you suggest to convince my iPhone it has ample storage space?

    Reset All Settings does not delete app data. It DOES reset your home screen layout, however, plus any default settings that you have changed.

  • Under Settings, then to Yahoo mail, I tapped the "Reset All Accounts" button, now I can't access my Yahoo email. What do I do to get my email back to the way it was?

    I tapped the "Reset All Accounts" button under settings (Yahoo Mail). Now, I can't access my (Yahoo) email from my iPhone.  How do I re-set to the way it was?

    If it still shows up under your accounts you would want to tap on it and then tap on the email address. You should see the option to sign out, do so and then re-add the account by hitting add account from settings> Mail contacts and calendars.
    If the accounts are not on the device start at re-adding the accounts.
    If you need the server settings you will need to contact Yahoo.

  • What exactly does the global switch command line do ?

    Hello All
    Just foraging in the dark world of APP-V. I have a question which I cannot find answer for through google.
    There are powershell commands to publish an APP-V application globally. What exactly does the global switch do ?
    I understand it makes the application available to everyone on the machine for anyone who logs onto that machine.
    However in the absence of this global switch the application is still available to all users who logon to that particular machine. So what exactly is the reason for using the global switch ?
    Thanks

    Correct, the global switch makes the application accessable for all users logging on to that system.
    This feature is required for some packages, like Office. But it is ofter used for applications used by everyone, like Adobe Reader.
    However in the absence of this global switch the application is still available to all users who logon to that particular machine. So what exactly is the reason for using the global switch ?
    A package can be added to the system but until it is published a user cannot start it. They won't see any shortcuts in their startmenu/desktop/etc.
    So after you added the package to the system, it must be published to a user or globally (every user) to start it.

  • What "exactly" does the Brightness setting in Print do?

    What "exactly" does the Brightness setting in the Print module do?
    I know it's a controversial button, especially now that there are proofing options available. Also, since you're using it "blind" it's impossible to know how much or what it's really doing.
    Does anyone know if it's e.g.. the same as going to quick develop and going up on "exposure", or "brightness", or "shadows"... How exactly is it brightening the image, and is +100 a full stop or how is it calibrated?
    Thanks,
    Alan.

    Ooops,
    Obviously there is NO brightness control in LR...is the print adjustment similar to an exposure adjustment or more like moving the "shadows" and "whites" adjustments (which if I understand corrrectly, moves tones above or below mid tones, but not highlights or blacks)?

  • What exactly does the M7 coprocessor do in the iPad air, and what apps can use it?

    I've been trying a few 3rd party apps which use the m7 in the iPhone 5s. None of them work. Also there seem to be no apps both built in motion activity under the privacy menu in settings.
    My question is, what exactly does the M7 coprocessor in the ipad air?

  • What is lost when resetting all settings on iPad

    What is lost when resetting all settings on ipad2

    This is copied from the iPad User Guide for 4.3 - the book version that can be downloaded from iBooks.
    Reset all settings:  Choose General > Reset > Reset All Settings.
    Enter your passcode if you have one. All your settings are reset. Information (such as your contacts and calendars) and media (such as your songs and videos) aren’t deleted.
    Essentially, you reset preferences like the way that you had brightness set, your home screen layout, WiFi settings, sounds, alerts, that type of thing. It will reset those things to the factory settings - just like it was out of the box.

  • "Check Network Connection​" - What Exactly Does the TV Check?

    Hi everyone
    May I please ask, what exactly does the TV check when I choose "check network connection"?
    In other words, when I click the "check network connection", what IP address / servers and ports does it communicate to? What checks does it do?
    Because my TV cannot establish a network connection via settings, but the browser works perfectly well,
    I would like to carry out the same checks of "check network connection" on my PC.
    Then, if failed also on my PC, I would turn to my ISP with the results, as I believe it is the one to fault.

    Assuming you're referring to the Airport icon in the menu bar, 'clear/empty' means Airport is turned off, gray bars means Airport is on but not connected to a network, and black bars means Airport is on and connected to a network. Other possible icon states are solid gray with a little computer inset, meaning you're connected to a computer-to-computer created on the Mac, and gray bars with an exclamation point (10.6 only), meaning connected to a network but not authenticated (e.g. wrong password for an 801.2X corporate/university network).
    To your question, it's perfectly possible to be successfully connected to a network (black icon) and unable to access the internet. Situations like that would include the network requiring a proxy server, for which you haven't set up the details on in Network Preferences, or you're connected to an open network that requires you to enter information or agree to terms (e.g. a hotel network, where you need to put in your room number and agree to the charges before you can connect to the internet).

  • What exactly does the Radio Beacon Indicate

    I have seen cases where the Radio Beacon is black and when it is gray. When it's black you may or may not be able to go through the wireless router to the modem and then to the internet. When it is gray, you cannot really do anything except be in a local mode. However there are instances when the Radio Beacon is black, rather than gray, and you still cannot access the internet. So, what exactly does the activated Radio Beacon Indicate, i.e., that the wireless network is working and the modem is down, or something else entirely ?

  • What exactly does the Work Offline option do in a shared review hosted on an internal server?

    Hi,
    What exactly does the Work Offline option do in a shared review hosted on an internal server?
    I *think* it simply disconnects you from the review server. I'm not sure why one would want to do this.
    I'm trying to recommend an offline workflow for reviewers who may not be able to access a shared review hosted on our internal server (for example, while traveling). These reviewers would like to be able to comment on an offline version of the review PDF and then publish their comments when they can again connect to the Internet/internal server.
    It doesn't seem like "Work Offline"  is the right fit for this scenario. Instead, should reviewers save a local copy to their hard drive, comment on it, and then, when reconnected to the Internet, open the local copy, click Reconnect to Server, and then click Publish Comments?

    Thanks, Dave. So for my hypothetical traveling reviewer, it would be reasonable to suggest the following steps for an offline workflow?
    1. Connect to the shared review.
    2. Choose Work Offline from the Server Status menu.
    3. Close and save the review PDF locally.
    4. Comment while traveling.
    5. When back in the office, open the local copy of the review PDF.
    6. Click Reconnect to Server.
    7. Click Publish Comments.

    Coalesce will take ADJACENT free space and coalesce it into one larger free chunk.
    A free extent in a dictionary-managed tablespace is made up of a collection of contiguous free blocks. When allocating new extents to a tablespace segment, the database uses the free extent closest in size to the required extent. In some cases, when segments are dropped, their extents are deallocated and marked as free, but adjacent free extents are not immediately recombined into larger free extents. The result is fragmentation that makes allocation of larger extents more difficult.
    You should often use the ALTER TABLESPACE ... COALESCE statement to manually coalesce any adjacent free extents. To Coalesce a tablespace give the following command
    SQL> alter tablespace ica coalesce;

  • So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date, is there a way to get it all back?

    So here's my problem. I just used the "reset all settings" option, and accidentaly restored an old backup. It deleted all my photos and contacts, but for some reason I still have all the apps from after the backup date,and it also kept the notes from after the backup. The "reset all settings" option clearly says no loss of data or media, so I don't understand why some stuff got deleted. My question is, is there a way to get it back?

    If you still can find a recent backup listed in iTunes/Edit/Preferences/Devices, use this one to restore from.
    If there are no recent backups listed, your data is gone. Only if you included the iTunes backup folder into your computer backup routine, you could be able to restore this folder and find one of your latest backups listed again.

    In Mac's PAINTR application, what exactly does the "Splash" function do?  It isn't mentioned in the Toolbox Documentation, but the "Splash" option is given right next to the "Draw" option at the top of the screen in the application itself.
