When I turn on DND on my phone it only prevents sounds when my phone is locked but when I am actually using my phone sounds come thru

When I am at work I have DND on, but if i want to quickly check messages the sounds come through when I am on the phone. I lowered the volume all the way but I was wondering if there is a way that sounds wont come through at all if youre phone is unlocked?

How do I do that? Isn't mute just for calls? Sorry, I am a new Iphone user...
Might I suggest you read the iphone manual or take a look at the quick guides which is bookmard in safari.
Open safari - hit the book icon - iphone user guide.

  • I updated my iphone to IOS7 but I'm unable to use my phone number for Imessage, I updated my iphone to IOS7 but I'm unable to use my phone number for Imessage

    Welcome to the Apple community.
    This feature has been introduced to make stolen phones useless to those that have stolen them.
    However it can also arise when the user has changed their Apple ID details with Apple and not made the same changes to their iCloud account/Find My Phone on their device before upgrading to iOS 7.
    The only solution is to change your Apple ID back to its previous state with Apple at My Apple ID verify the changes, enter the password as requested on your device and then turn off "find my phone".
    You should then change your Apple ID back to its current state, verify it once again, delete the iCloud account from your device and then log back in using your current Apple ID. Finally, turn "find my phone" back on once again.

  • My phone randomly shut off. When I turned it back on it said it needed to restore, to plug it into itunes. When I did, and tried to restore it, it failed with a code 21. I have followed all the instructions, it still isn't working. Please help!

I have followed all the instructions, it still isn't working. I've uninstalled and reinstalled all that the steps told me to, I've updated everything in my computer. I don't know what else to do. My phone will just show the apple sign and the itunes plug in sign.

    Whether you can redownload music depends upon what country that you in. If you are using your computer's iTunes then does music show in the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page (on your phone you might be able to redownload media via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app) ? If music shows there, but not that album, then check to see if it's hidden : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
    If you aren't in a country when you can redownload music and it's still on your phone then you should be able to copy it over from the phone via File > Devices > Transfer Purchases.

  • When you turn on the ipad2 it does not start up properly.  The rotating disk that happens when you turn off the ipad appears after the apple logo comes up

    When you turn on the ipad2 it does not start up properly.  The rotating disk that happens when you turn off the ipad appears after the apple logo comes up during start-up and stays there for ten minutes.  Then, the ipad will start up properly.

    Have you tried a reset ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.

    If the phone is actually working you can reset it fron the handset, but yours does not appear to be working. Be sure you are using a good cable and the cable is connected directly to a USB port on the computer (not a hub). Follow the instructions carefully in that link; the computer will not recognize the phone until it is in Recovery mode, and it's complicated to get it there. If you have followed the instructions exactly and it still is not recognized in iTunes. try removing and reinstalling iTunes: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925. If that still fails try a different computer, and also try restoring from DFU mode (Google is your friend).

    Tryin to put apps on new I phone 4s! Went to web site and got applied but when I go to App Store it's looking for card details! Do I have to give these

    I suggest that you contact iTunes support. http://www.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html It could be what Lawerence said. Debit cards are not always accepted. Many say they are not any more, but those that already existed are okay. If you are getting this error declining the card, I feel this is the case for you.

    I need to deactive icloud to be able to repair my phone as it is damaged. however when signing into icloud it appears with a box asking me to verify the information in my email. When loging into my email inbox, there is no message there from icloud to verify. so how do I get onto icloud or how else can I deactivate it without using my device?

    Hi ryball89,
    Happy Holidays!  If you are having issues with the verification email for your iCloud/Apple ID, follow the steps below:
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email - Apple Support
    http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201455
    If you didn't receive your verification or reset email
    Not sure where that email was sent? Here are some tips to help you find it.
    When you make certain updates to your Apple ID, we’ll send you an email to help you complete the update. For example, you might have reset your password, reset your security questions, or added a new email address to your account. If you can't find the email after we send it, these steps can help.
    Search for the email
    We'll send the email from "Apple," so you can quickly search for it. If it isn't in your inbox, check your folders. If a spam filter or email rule moved the email, it might be in the Spam, Junk, Trash, Deleted Items, or Archive folder.
    Make sure you're checking the correct email account
    If you're looking for a password reset email, make sure you're checking the correct email inbox. It will either be your primary Apple ID email address or a separate rescue email address that you added to your account. 
    If you're looking for a verification email, you can sign in to My Apple ID and review all the email addresses you have on file, including the one that you're trying to verify. If the email address is incorrect, you can update it and send another verification email.
    Resend the email
    To resend a reset email, repeat the steps to reset your password or security questions, and we'll send an email to your rescue or primary Apple ID email address.
    To resend the verification email, go to My Apple ID, select Manage your Apple ID, then sign in. Click Resend next to the email address that you want to verify, and we'll send an email to that address.
    Make sure that you're getting email
    If you're not getting any email, you might need to contact your email service provider for help. You can also use these steps to get help receiving email at OS X Mail or an iCloud email address. 
    Contact us
    Go to System Status and see if Apple ID is available. If you still can't find the reset email or verification email, contact Apple Support.
    Cheers,
    Judy

  • Today,when i tried to listen music in my iphone 5 ,i noticed that my sound wasnt coming from the speakers but when i plugged earphone ,i listed the sound??

    today,when i tried to listen music in my iphone 5 ,i noticed that my sound wasnt coming from the speakers but when i plugged earphone ,i listened the sound?? i couldnt recognize the problem with my iphone?? really need help!!

Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

  • I just purchased an Novella MiFi  ~ I have an Ipad 2 wifi only.  My ipad will recognize the device, but when I try to connect, is says I am not connected. Suggestion?

    I just purchased an Novella MiFi  ~ I have an Ipad 2 wifi only.  My ipad will recognize the device, but when I try to connect, is says I am not connected. Suggestion?

    Getting connected to a mifi the first time was goofy for me as well.  The message you are getting means you have not satisfied the security on the my yet.
    On mine, when I set it up, I had to declare a password.  But it never recognized that password for connecting devices.  Turns out the password was only used for changing system settings.   When connecting a device what it really wanted was the device code, similar to a router key- not your password.   So look through the paperwork and find the key, and try that.
    I think you mean novatel, who make a number of mifi units.

    Do you think it might be possible that your phone is a 3G instead of a 3GS?  The reason for asking whether this is a possibility is because 3G iPhones cannot be updated any further than ios 4.2.1.  3G and 3GS are very similar in external appearance.  One way to tell the difference is that the 3G cannot record videos in the camera app, while the 3GS can do this.
    Another way to tell is by introducing your model or serial number in the Apple Support page that identifies your iPhone.
