Why can`t you change the black background behind icons

I just got an iPhone yesterday and the thing works great no problems at all .... except that you cant change the black background behind the icons only the `slide to unlock` screen.
how stupid you could even change the background on the old school nokia phones from 1998.
this should be something apple lets us do on the next release
what does everyone else think is there a way to change that black screen to a custom wallpaper WITH OUT HACKING IT. i dont believe in that and i would appreciate no one posting about hacking it.
if there is a legit way to change it that i havent read about please let me know. if not APPLE CAN YOU ADD THIS TO YOUR NEXT UPDATE

Not possible.

Why can't you change the .html/.htm filetype icons for Firefox?

**Before you read this question: NOTICE I am talking about Firefox Icons on Windows, NOT ON FIREFOX BOOKMARKS/PROGRAM!!!!! Read the question then please, please visit the link so you have a better understanding of what I'm asking with this question!!!!**
I've been trying to change the FileType Icons for the Firefox Documents for weeks now and there's no solution that I can see. I tried using Filetypes Manager to change the .html/.htm filetypes icons with no luck. Why does Firefox force this change on users when most users that use Firefox do so because of it's ability to be customizable? Even Microsoft Word .doc file icons allow you to change them! Microsoft!!! Why is Firefox forcing everyone to use their ugly filetype icons? &____& I've yet to see this issue not only addressed but solved. Why does Firefox ignore this issue? I'd like my computer's icons to all be top-notch, and Firefox is preventing me from making my weeks of hard work go to naught. Please, please address this issue... if anything, tell your users why your program is forcing the icons on them in the first place when monopolies like Microsoft allow their users to customize program filetype icons.
If this cannot have a fix, why can't it be a new feature/addition to the newest versions of Firefox?
Edit: And because people are starting to get 'confused' I've included a screen shot of what I'm talking about because, for the love of god, people, I'm *not* talking about using favicons and bookmarks!

The only thing I changed about the question was to add an image and to try and make it more understandable since everyone assumed I was talking about Favicons/Bookmark Icons....
As for it being a Windows 7 issue and not a Firefox one... if it were just a Windows 7 issue I wouldn't be able to change other application icons or filetype icons on the Windows platform using FileTypes Manager. Firefox, from what I've been able to gather, is not one that can be changed. If I change the filetype icons for Word Documents any other extension (like .mp3/.mp4/.avi/.mkv), I get the changed icon I wanted. However, when you try to change the Firefox .html/.htm filetype extension icons, it doesn't work. Have you tried going through changing your icon filetypes using FileTypes Manager to see this issue? If it were a Windows or FileType Manager issue, then I'd have trouble changing other icons on that platform, no? So what I'm asking with my question is why this is. Why, if you use FileTypes Manager to change Windows7 icons, is Firefox's icons the only ones that won't be changed? Doesn't this fall under Firefox's problem if their icons are under the 'can't be changed' category under Windows? And using shortcut icons is no good for me. When I browse a folder of .html files, I want to see the icons I changed it to, not make a shortcut to every .html file I have just to have a better-looking Visual Style. Defeats the purpose, doesn't it? As for clicking on Properties to change it... Windows 7 doesn't allow this feature anymore, which is why I've been using FileType Manager to change all filetype extension icons.
Hope that helps clear things up a bit, though I have a feeling I'm just confusing everyone more with what is a simple question/problem....

How do you change the black background in full screen edit?

I want to change the background colour in fullscreen edit from black to white. Can this be done?

Welcome to the Apple Discussions.
No. The general theory is that the pics are easier to edit against black.

Why can't you change the font on apple devices?

why cant you change font on iphone? i hate the font that is on apple devices!!

Because Apple has not made that a feature of the phone. They have never stated why. However, Apple has a long history of discouraging user customization so it's not really a great suprise to anyone who's used Apple products for any length of time.

HT201210 Why can't I change the location of my device backups?

Why can't I change the location of my device backups?
iTunes seems to force me to use my c:\ drive as the destination for all backups.
Background: I have set up my c:\ drive only for programs - all data is stored on separate drives - including my iTunes library and all media. So, I can't skinny down the c:\ drive any more without uninstalling programs.
The issue is that my 10,000 rpm, 280 GB - C:\ drive is fast but small and is now FULL after I got about 1/2 way through a 128 GB backup of my ipad. (Yes, all movies have been deleted off of the iPad to minimize the size of the backup.)
I deleted the partial iPad backup, moved all the Mobile Applications to another drive, emptied the recycle bin and tried again with my much smaller iPhone. You guessed it: the io7 update hung and both of my devices are now paper weights.
Which leaves me f*cked, anyone know how I can un-f myself?

iTunes movies are not part of an iDevice backup.
Videos & photos you take with the camera (in the Camera roll) are part of the backup but those should be sync'd to the computer and removed from the camera roll.

How do you change the slide background colour in the keynote app?

How do you change the slide background colour in the keynote app?

You can't (not in Keynote for iOS). The background color is a function of the template selected when you create the file initially and cannot be altered. the only workaround I know of is to add a graphic file to the slide and position it behind all other content, but this would need to be repeated on any slide you wish to "recolor".

How do you change the dashboard background in os x mavericks?

How do you change the dashboard background in os x mavericks? plz help!!!

I just discovered this by mistake.
Select the picture you want as background, and in the Services menu (or contextual menu) choose "Set Desktop Picture". Then immediately switch into the Dashboard while this command is being processed.
I was trying to change my regular desktop but discovered this changed the Dashboard background instead. I presume it is because Dashboard is considered a Space and different Spaces can have different Desktops.

Why can't I change the transaction isolation level?

I was trying to change the transaction isolation level from an EJB. My source codes are shown as the follows:
======================================================
/*********************** Database Routines *************************/

int status = con.getTransactionIsolation();
System.out.print( "1. " );
disp_tx_status( status );
System.out.println( "con.isReadOnly() = " + con.isReadOnly() );
con.setTransactionIsolation( Connection.TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE );
System.out.print( "2. " );
disp_tx_status( status );
} catch( SQLException ex ) {
System.err.println( "SQLException: " + ex.toString() );
throw new EJBException("Unable to connect to database. " +
ex.getMessage());
} catch( NamingException ex ) {
System.err.println( "NamingException: " + ex.toString() );
throw new EJBException("Unable to connect to database. " +
ex.getMessage());
private void disp_tx_status( int status )
System.out.print( "Transaction Status: " );
switch( status )

System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED" );
break;

System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_NONE" );
break;

System.out.println( "UNKNOWN" );
break;
private void show_supported_trans_levels( DatabaseMetaData dmd ) throws SQLException
System.out.println( "List of Supported Transaction Isolation Levels: " );
if( dmd.supportsTransactionIsolationLevel( Connection.TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED ) )
System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED is supported!" );
else
System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_READ_UNCOMMITTED is unsupported!" );
if( dmd.supportsTransactionIsolationLevel( Connection.TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED ) )
System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_READ_COMMITTED is supported!" );

System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE is supported!" );
else
System.out.println( "TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE is unsupported!" );
=========================================================
However, I encountered the following exception when running at the highlighted statement:
======================================================
SQLException: java.sql.SQLException: Transaction manager errors. statement not allowed in XA Session.
======================================================
To my surprise, the isolation level TRANSACTION_SERIALIZABLE is supported from the database vendor. So why can't I change the transaction isolation level?

Why can I not change the apple id associated with iphoto and imovies

Why can I not change the appleid associated with iphoto and imovies

Is it not your Apple ID? Is this a used Mac? If so, the Mac, OS X and the iLife apps are all registered to the original owner of the Mac.
When someone sells a Mac they should erase the Mac and reinstall the most recent version of OS X that came with the Mac. And they should call Apple Care and have the Mac, the OS and the iLife apps disassociated from their Apple ID. Can you call the original owner and request that?

Why can't I change the transparent color and font color in IOS 7?

Who thought all this WHITE AND TRANSPARENT color looks appealing?
Why can't I change the color of the folders and text?
I already tried inverting the colors and then it washes out the photos I use as my wallpaper.
I love everything, so far, except this transparent issue.

That's very sad those colors can't be changed. They really look ugly.
Thanks for responding.
