When using Maps as GPS,  screen keeps going off - iPhone 3G

When I use maps as a gps, how do I stop the screen from going off?

But, that makes the auto-lock feature be turned off for all usages. What about if you only want the screen to stay on while you're using Maps? I have to turn off the auto-lock every time and then go back and turn it back on? It seems like this should be a setting in the Maps app instead of having to change the master settings.

    I have been noticing that when using the computer the mouse keeps going in places where I really do not want and just now select the sentence without I have done anything. Sometimes goes to places like bookmark or open tabs in website when I am reading a page.
    Also I have noticed opened windows that I have not opened.
    I have verified the sharing folder and also the remote access but it not let me turn it off.
    Also I have add a password to my computer and even using the same one it looks like is not working.
    The I photo stopped working, Mac Mail does not let me add rules (this is from one day to the other)
    The computer is mine, the internet I use is payed by me with a password. I did not give permission to anyone to use my computer or share my files.
    In system preferences in the sharing folder is showing everyone and staff.
    My computer is private I do not own a company and I do not have a network set up in my house.
    I had my photos removed from my computer and even after trying to reinstall I photo and fix the Mac Mail is not working.
    I am receiving emails saying that I have sent emails to people that I do not know and including in a time where I am working and not using the computer.
    Any suggestions in how to fix this issue?
    I really appreciate.

    With the multitude of issues you have I would take it to an Apple store or AASP and have them sort it out. Then I would sign up for Apple camp or one on one.

  • What to do if my IPAD screen keeps going off

    Hi,
    Hoping someone has the answer to this.  Apologies if it is a frequent question.
    I'm not incredibly technical but have had an Ipad for about six months.
    I've had a continual problem with the screen going off when i'm in the middle of using it.  I know it's the screen because any audio continues.  The problem is getting worse and now sometimes the screen does not come back on even if I close the case cover and reopen it.  The screen remains blank.  I then have to leave it for ages and it will then work.
    On most occasions it does not immediately go blank but rather flickers then goes off.
    Thanks

    It shouldn't be doing that. I'd make an appointment at your local apple store and have them look at it.

  • Lenovo z50 screen keeps going black

    I've had it for around 6 months with no problems, then in the last 48 hours, the screen keeps going black when I'm using it. It happens every 20-30 minutes. If I close the laptop lid and open it again, it works fine until the problem comes up again. I've tried downloading updates and placing a fan by it, but it keeps happening. Any ideas?

  • Wht does my computer screen keeps going dark?

    Why does my computer screen keep going dark?

    Good. This means that, in your existing account, a setting is bad or .plist file is corrupt. As identifying the rascal may take time, my suggestion is to move data to the new account, must be with administrative privileges. As the contents of each account is unavailable to the other, there are two methods:
    - if you have a backup on an external disk, as you should (if not, consider this seriously, do not count on good behavior of hard disks), make a last backup on the existing account, and restore in the other account; when ready, delete the old (buggy) account
    - if not, save your settings unto a flash drive; this is a limited backup just to avoid putting back settings for Mail etc. I am satisfied with iBackup (grapefruit.ch), but there are other backup utilitites, Time Machine, for example; TM does not allow limited backup, it works if you have a large external disk. If backup disk is not available, move files to shared folder, which is visibile from both accounts, and from there to the new account.
    May seem difficult, in fact it is not. You must just move data from one account to another. Now, take care to new apps you install or new functions you activate. When you notice something strange, that may be the cause of this behavior.

    curtismartin50,
    We from what you have described there seems to be an issue with the software on the phone or the phone itself. You can try to address the software by following these steps below:
    1) Have you performed a hard reset, by pulling the battery out and waiting 2-3 minutes before rebooting when you place the battery back in?
    2) You may want to try upgrading the device software by downloading BlackBerry Device Software fro blackberry.com
    3) Have you performed a full "Wipe" on your BlackBerry Smartphone, you can do this by going to "Options" > "Security Options" > "General Settings" and press your Menu Key to choose "Wipe Handheld"
    Note that this will delete all data on your device and restore the unit back to factory defualts!
    Hope this helps

    I understand that you are having issues with your HP 2310m monitor going blank and/or flickering. I am providing you with some steps you can try below:

    Step 4. Press the Menu button on the monitor
    Step 5. Navigate to the Factory Reset option and select it
    If the above steps did not resolve your issue you can try the monitor on a computer or other device to see if the issue persists. Please call our technical support at 800-474-6836.

  • I dropped my ipod in coke.  The screen keeps going black.  Is there anything i can do?

    i dropped my ipod in coke.  The screen keeps going black.  Is there anything i can do?

    Your iPod is toast.  No amount of dry rice is gonna help.
    "Coke" and other carbonated drinks are acidic (carbonic acid), not to mention loaded with sugars and other nastiness.
    The acid will "eat" metals, like the lead and tin in solder, most liquids will wreak havoc with the LCD display, and since "Coke" and its cousins are acidic, they are also good electrolytes and will conduct electricity.
    You can try filing a claim against your home owner's insurace, but barring that, you're out of luck.

  • When FT is full screen, camera goes off when swiping to a different app

    When FT is full screen, camera goes off when swipping to a different app or the desktop. This is frustrating to the other person. We were having a discussion and I said I wouls look it up and when I swipped to Safari, the camera went off. It makes the other person think the connection has been lost. Anywhere to report issues like this to Apple?

    In reading other threads, I found a few that recommend a hard reset to solve the issue.  I have tried it, and thus far haven't expereienced the problem again.  Hopefully that's it then

    # Yes, if you go to accounts.firefox.org, sign out, you will now be signed out.
    # Sign back in, and you will be asked to save the password you entered.
    # This will save the password and autocomplete if you have this option turned on.
    I am not exactly sure why the menu did not detect the password change or if it was stored incorrectly after you changed it? But after storing the correct password you can manage any duplicate passwords in the password manager.[[Password manager - Remember, delete and change saved passwords in Firefox]]
