Why is my iphone 5 not using default ring tone even though it is set for my personal tone in defaults!!

Hello Rob,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities. You may have a contact that has a different ringtone assigned to it. Just navigate to the contact and see what ringtone is assigned to them.

Setting Ringtones
In addition to the default ringtone, you can assign individual ringtones to people in your contacts so that you can tell when a particular person calls.
Alternatively you can reset all settings in Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings. This would put your iPhone at factory default on everything settings wise and it does not touch the data on the phone

Verizon Media Manager will not start automatically with Windows, even though it is set to do so.

Verizon Media Manager will not start automatically with Windows, even though it is set to do so. This started with the latest update. I see that the desktop icon for Media Manager now has a security shield on it, and it requires UAC confirmation when you start it, which I don't remember the old version doing.
One thing I noticed, msconfig.exe shows that "C:\Program Files\Verizon\McciTrayApp.exe" is set to start at Windows startup, but the desktop icon used to start Media Manager manually has a target of ""C:\Program Files\Verizon\Verizon Media Manager\Release\Verizon Media Manager.exe" Verizon Media Manager".
I don't remember what the previous version was, but this one is 9.4.86. It asked me if I wanted to update it a few days ago, and I said yes.
I am running Windows 7 Home Premium.
Solved!
Go to Solution.

Try setting the startup option to off and then to on again. It looks to be pointing to a wrong location.
Attached is a partial screen shot of my msconfig setting.

Have lost return button and will not open to home page even though it is set to

Return button no longer works and home page will not open even though it is set to do so. I"ve reinstalled firefox, but this didn't help
== This happened ==
Every time Firefox opened

Hello Rick.
You may be having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not coming from one of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] and select ''Disable all add-ons''. If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme. You can troubleshoot plugins the same way.
If you want support for one of your add-ons, you'll need to contact its author.
If you need to restore your interface, you can go into ''View > Toolbars > Customize... > Restore default set''.

Why is my iPhone 4S still in headphone mode even though i have my headphones out of the 3.5mm jack?(iOS 6.1)

The reason why this is, is because you either have the "change sounds with buttons" setting ON or, you have installed either a faulty version of iOS 6.1 or a version which has an extremely massive bug in it. You can, however, get it out of headphone mode by following these steps;
Step 1: Check if your "change with sounds with buttons" setting is off.
Step 2: if step 1 is as said, go onto iTunes and go to "restore".(This WILL delete all of you devices data but if you have it backed up on iCloud or on iTunes so you dont need to panic.
If all of those steps seem to not be the case, contact your nearest apple store or phone their hotline.
I hope this helped some people in distress.

Briansyddal - you might be able to manage your phone without a PC, but many of us can't, especially those of us with large iTunes libraries. How do you propose I manage my 250GB of music using only a phone? Maybe I could go out and buy 10 iPhones and spread my library out among them!
Catz537 - I have the same problem as you and I've spent hours on the web trying to find a solution to it. It was a problem with iOS 7 and 8.1.1 doesn't fix it. The the only advice from Apple is completely useless because it requires you, effectively, to delete and recreate your iTunes library and lose all your metadata, album art, notes etc and there's also no guarantee it will work. I wish I could be more help (even more - I wish Apple could be more help) - I updated to 8.1.1 at 1400 today. At 2200 I'm still "waiting for changes to be applied" for a measly 16GB of music transfer.

IPhone not syncing all iPhoto pix even though Gigs of space left on iPhone?

Hello,
I have a 16GB iPhone.
My iPhoto Library is 2.5GB.
I've "albumed" all my photos in iPhoto.
When syncing my iPhone I've only selected a couple of albums (no more than about 2GB's worth).
For some reason, my iPhone won't accept all the pictures I have selected, even though their collective size is far less than the capacity of the phone. Some of the pictures have loaded but when I try and sync again, I get an error message stating, "No photos were copied to the iPhone because there is not enough free space on the iPhone to hold your photos and albums"....even though according to iTunes own "Capacity Bar", I still have 1.75GB of free space left on my iPhone.
Now, here's something else that is weird that I don't understand.
My iPhoto library is 2.5GB.
My iTunes "Capacity Bar" says that the partial amount of photos that I've already synced from iPhoto to my iPhone is 11.62GB?
How can that be? How can the same amount of pictures be 2.5GB on my computer and 11.62GB on my iPhone?
Can anybody explain this to me?
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Justin

I'm having a similar problem, I have 70MB of memory remaining, which I know isn't a lot, but I have less than 1 MB of photos I'm trying to sync, and it refuses to let me have them. I can put a 50 MB app on at this point with no problem, but this 1MB of photos keeps hitting some kind of wall.

IMessage sound plays default even though it is set for other tone

Iphone 6 does not vibrate in lock mode even though settings are set correctly.

I can even be holding the phone and it does not vibrate when a call comes in. How do I change this. I have checked all my settings and they are set to correctly. I am missing so many calls and having to call back. Very frustrating!

Is do not disturb turned on by any chance?

My ipad 3 won't update to iOS 6.2. I get error message saying I'm not connected to the Internet even though Internet is working for everything else.

Does anyone know why this is happening or what I can do?

If the update is not working from the iPad over wireless have you tried to update the ipad via iTunes. Here are the steps for both ways of updating your iPad http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4623

Why is the iPhone 5 using so much data I have read a lot of complaints and I have went over on my plan and never have?

Why is the iPhone 5 using so much data I have read a lot of complaints and I have went over on my plan and never have?
I have even turned off LTE. Cut off my cellular data off of apps. Still uses data I switched back to my iPhone 4 cause I had used my
Data in 2 weeks!

I have the same problem on my 4S 64G: I updated to 7.1.1 and burned through my cellular data allowance without running anything that ought to be using it. I incurred an overage charge on Thursday, my new billing cycle started on Friday, and I immediately had used 3/4 of my allowance for the new cycle. I typically do not use my allowance in an entire month so burning through it in a day or two twice in one week is very much not right.
Possibly unrelated or not: last night I was out, did NOT use any apps that should use cellular data, and came home and my phone refused to connect to my home wifi despite turning this and that on and off. I burned cellular allowance while wifi was available.
It seems like someting on my phone, whether an app or the iOS itself, is using cellular data even while my phone is not in use. All I could do is turn off Cellular Data in Settings but that very much diminishes the usefulness of a phone that has served me well -- without data overages! -- for several years.
Please fix this, Apple!

Why is my iphone 3gs using excessive data?

why is my iphone 3gs using excessive data?

Check your (push) notifications.
Settings > Notifications > Look at what applications are pushing information to your phone. Turn off the applications' notifications that you don't care about.
Settings > Email > Check how often your phone is checking email and sending it to you. Push will use the most data. Data usage goes down from there.
Check your running applications.
From your home screen, double-press the home (physical) button > Hold down an icon until they shake and the "X"s appear on their corners. Hit the "X"s to close out the application.
Some applications can continue to use your data while running the background even though you are not actively using the application.
Are you using YouTube?
YouTube, and any other video application, uses a lot of data.
Are you using Pandora?
Music applications can also use up data though not as much as video.

Hi, my MacBook Air is not working anymore if it's not connected with the power cable. It's pretty new so I can't imagine that the battery is dead already. Why can't I use my MacBook Air without the power cable even though I charged it for hours?
