Why isn't family base compatible with your phones to help parents protect their children?

we are concerned about all the applications that can be downloaded on a phone.  Verizon offers a great application to help monitor this (app usage, automatically locking, etc.) but it is only available on android phones.  This does nothing to help parents of children with I phones.  why?  Is there something out there like this for I phones?

You can setup Family Sharing from your own iCloud account.  I've never used it so I can't give precise details on it.

  • Why isn't my ios7 compatible with iOS 10.5.8 this is ridiculous I spent a lot of money on all my apple products just to have to buy an iOS upgrade to sync my music

    All my products are apple I just bought iPhone 5 which is ios7 my iMac is osx 10.5.8.  Apple are you kidding me that I have to upgrade to a new osx just to upload my music from my osx 10.5.8???? Must you selfishly greedily make me upgrade just to upload my songs from iTunes? Bert dissappointed in you apple.  Why not just make iTunes compatible with the ios7????? Really?? You need to fix this problem make iTunes from my osx 10.5.8 compatible with my iPhone ios7.   ***? Frustrating that an apple product is not compatable with another apple product which I spent ridiculous amounts of money for both my iMac and iPhone 5 isn't it enough that I spent ober 2000$ on my iMac and my iPhone just to have it not able to upload my songs??? What do u suggest I do buy snow leopard? Really? If you don't fix this problem how can you expect anyone to keep buying your product I mean come on I know marketing strategies and whatnot but if I spent 2000 + on my iPhone and IMAc should it not at least allow me to use my iTunes with my brand new iPhone and why not just make a dl for 10.5.8 do you really need me to buy snow leapord? Really? What is the meaning of this it is very frustrating seem like you guys purposefully make me and everyone spend more money for no reason. 

    1) The people responding in this forum are just other Apple product users like you, not Apple itself.  Apple Support Communities is primarily an end-user to end-user (i.e., users like you helping other users) technical issue support feature. Feedback will truly get more attention if you send it using:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback/itunesapp.html
    2)  At some stage developers decide it isn't worth the expense of supporting older technology. If I had my way you could still connect iOS7 to OS9, but Apple has decided to make the limit OS 10.6.8  Nor do I like that I can't get spare parts for my 33 year old car...
    Suggestions...
    If you are not going to always be running the newest technology always read software requirements before doing any upgrades.  I run a 12 year old computer and yes, I see there are things I can't run (many), but I also then avoid buying any incompatible new technology.  The system requirements are printed on the side of the box (albeit in 9 point medium gray font on light gray box   )  Do not expect the Apple Store people to check with you about your computer first.  I bet half of them were still in grade school when my computer was produced and none of them could possibly imagine anybody would run anything older than 6 years (probably not even that, more like 4).
    Why not buy Snow Leopard?  Of course you do not say what model computer you are using, but if you can run Snow Leopard on your computer there's no advantage to staying with Leopard.  Snow Leopard costs $20 which is minimal compared to you now no longer being able to sync your phone.

    I'd swear I posted almost this identical post two hours ago...
    If you can't/don't want to upgrade your computer, you have 30 days to return the phone I believe.

  • Why isn't my iMac compatible with airplay mirroring with the new Mountain Lion upgrade?

    Yesterday, I upgraded to the newly released Max OS X Mountain Lion, mainly because I was very interested in the airplay mirroring function that Mountain Lion brings to the table. To my dismay, however, I found that AirPlay is not available on my device due to the fact that my iMac is from mid/late 2010 and that function only works on mid-2011 and newer.
    Why is it that my 21.5" iMac running a core i3 processor is not deemed worthy enough to have this function. I honestly feel a bit robbed that it is not included in my $19.99.  Why am I paying the same price as someone else who is getting that key feature.
    I love Apple to death. I've had many of their products, but I really feel as though this is unfair, and that I have been mislead.

    I don't know why it does not work - assuming it has something to do with firmware, EFI, or similar; however, if you want Apple to hear you, consider filing feedback here since these are strictly user to user forums:

  • This application is not compatible with your device and cannot be loaded

    Hi,
    I have been trying to load an application to my BB 9000 since a monday and getting this error "This application is not compatible with your device and cannot be loaded".
    As evident, I am new to BlackBerry development and got to port an existing J2ME project on BB 9000.
    To load application I am using  
    - BB Dektop software 5 (latest)
    - BB Device Software 4.6 is installed (which is the version of BB 9000 as well)
    I am able to load sample JDE 4.6 applications but I build my project through same JDE and through eclipse (JDE compoment 4.6.0.19) as well but couldn't load it,
    I even signed my app since I am using net.rim.device.api.servicebook api which requries signing.
    Can someone please explain me
    1) why this error occurs in first place 
    2) how to setup right envioroment to load an application on a given BB handset (BB 9000 vodafon India to be specific)
    3) How would manage this process on a single machine if I have 4-5 different BB handsets.
    I shall be thanful for any logical pointer to solution to these problems.  

    Hi,
    The main problem with your genrated ALX file. I think in your ALX file contains <fileset Java="1.49" _blackberryVersion="[5.0.0)"> TAG  and remove the  _blackberryVersion attribute. Then it will work.
    So your final ALX file contains
    <loader version="1.0">
        <application id="App">
            <name >
                App1
            </name>
            <description >
            </description>
            <version >
                1.0.0
            </version>
            <vendor >

                </files>
            </fileset>
        </application>
    </loader>
    Even thought it is not installed then make sure that your application may not delete from your device. Select the application and click on delete button in Desktop manager.
    Still u didnt slove the problem  then insted of
     <directory >
                    5.0.0
        </directory>
    replace as

  • 'not compatible with your current codelines' and 'Patch 7461070'

    We are trying to upgrade EBS from 11.5.10.2 to R12.1.1 using Maintenance Wizard v2.15, and we are on "Apply Preinstall Patches" for "Perform the Upgrade". We got some strange errors:

  • Compatible with your plan/Data pak required/Requires data pkg $9.99 or higher

    1) When I go to "Upgrade your phone"/"Select a phone or device" I see 59 results.
    When I click "Compatible with your current plan" the number goes to down to 52 results.
    However, 23 of them say "Data pak required" and another 3 say "Requires data pkg $9.99 or higher".
    Those phrases seem to imply that those phones are not compatible with my plan and
    would require changing my plan.  If so, why do they not disappear when I click "Compatible with your current plan"?
    2) Suppose I get one of the phones that say "Data pak required" or "Requires data pkg $9.99 or higher"
    and indeed I have to change my plan.
    Would I be obligated to the different plan for the full two years or could I just switch back to my old plan
    at some point and just not be able to access some features of the phone?
    I tried asking my question to Verizon Wireless directly but all I got was some ambiguous doublespeak
    wrapped in some polite niceties instead of a coherent answer.
    Thanks for any help.

    1. Compatible with your current plan is referring to your minutes and Nationwide talk & text plan... The data plan is seperate.
    2. It depends on if you get a smartphone or not. If you get a feature phone that requires a data plan, then no you could not take away the data plan and still use that phone. Same goes for smartphones. You will always have to have a data plan with a phone that requires one no matter how you use it... Now if you got a feature phone that doesn't require a data plan, but you added a data plan, you could take that away at any time and revert back to the pay-per-usage plan.

  • My mac OS X is version 10.5.8 and I have ilife '11 and if I try to open it "iLife '11 is not compatible with your version of mac OS X" "it requires 10.6.3 or Later" What should I do?

    My mac OS X is version 10.5.8 and I have bought  iLife '11 and if I try to open/install it says "iLife '11 is not compatible with your version of mac OS X" and
    "it requires 10.6.3 or Later"
    What should I do?

    Buy a Snow Leopard 10.6 retail disk and upgrade? $29.
    Or call iTunes, tell them what happened, and ask if it would be at all possible for them to issue you a refund & reverse the sale.

  • Does ITunes show updates compatible with your device only or all available updates?

    If iTunes is showing thy iOS 6.1 is available as an update does that mean it's compatible with my device for sure?

    Just the latest signed one that is compatible with your iPhone.

  • My old computer (a Sony) with my iTunes crashed. I have a new MAC and want to make sure I can keep all of my music (mostly from old CD's that have been lost). I bought iTunes match hoping that would work but it isn't using the data on my phone. HELP!

    My old computer (a Sony) with my iTunes crashed. I have a new MAC and want to make sure I can keep all of my music (mostly from old CD's that have been lost). I bought iTunes match hoping that would work but it isn't using the data on my phone. HELP!

    Since you have purchased a new Mac (which, BTW, is not typed in all capitals) why not buy a Time Capsule <http://www.apple.com/airport-time-capsule/> which is designed specifically to work with OS X and Time Machine?
    You don't say what part of your Sony "crashed." If it was not the HDD it is possible to take the computer apart, put the HDD in an external case, then recover the data off of it (including the music) simply drag-n-drop. If it was the HDD that "crashed" that makes it more difficult.
    If you are able to recover the music from the Sony you can then add it to the iTunes library on the Mac and iTunes Match will then scan, match and upload the tracks to be mirrored in the cloud.

  • HS-44 Stereo Headset compatible with 3109 phone?

    I noticed on the Nokia website that the compatibillity with headsets can depend on the last software update of your phone. I have the latest software 5.30 on my 3109 so now I'm wondering if I could use the HS-44 headset on this one.
    If not, is there any other "in-ear-plug" headset available for this type that allows you to scroll trough your mp3's and answers phonecalls? ( find the older/normal earplug headset less comfortabel for my ears.)
    Thanks in advance for the advice!
    Art

    I haven't given up yet.   Here's what Nokia tech support said:
    Although it is not listed on the web address I am sure that the Nokia Hs-49 wired headset will function properly with your Nokia 6650
    Armed with that information, I looked up all compatible phones with the HS-49 headset, since my real goal is to find a working adapter for the Nokia 6650 Fold.
    The HDA-11 2.5mm to 2.5mm TTY adapter apparently is compatible with the Nokia 6650 Fold.  Nokia Tech Support says when queried specifically about this adapter.
    "I am pleased to advise you that our Nokia HDA-11 Adapter is compatible with your Nokia 6650 Fold."  
    My real goal, however, is to be able to use my Sennheiser headphones (3.5mm jack) with this phone.
    Googling the HDA-11 has produced this thread on AT&T:
    http://forums.wireless.att.com/cng/board/message?board.id=nokia&message.id=48856
    Note that the HDA-11 doesn't do the 2.5mm to 3.5mm job directly, it just provides a 2.5mm jack that you can ostensibly plug a 2.5 to 3.5mm adapter into.  Since I already have one of these (I bought it when I bought the phone naively thinking that it would allow me to use my headphones) , I've ordered the HDA-11 and will see if the thread listed above also applies to the 6650 Fold. 
    It's amazing to me that Nokia doesn't provide any way to adapt a standard 3.5mm headphone to this jack.
    It's also incredible that they list virtually nothing compatible with the headphone jack on this phone on their website.
    Equally frustrating is that Nokia seems to have no interest in fixing any of the above. 
    Stay tuned to this thread.  I'll let y'all know when I get the HDA-11 jack + the 2.5mm to 3.5mm adapter lets me use my headphones with this poor excuse for a music phone.

  • Is there a way to remove your sim card if you don't have the tool that came with your phone?

    Is there a way to remove your sim card if you don't have the tool that came with your phone? I wanted to see if I could upload my old information to the iCloud, by putting the new sim card into the old phone, since I didn't before I updated my new phone.

    Any metal clip will do. Insert the tip in the little hole next to the Sim Card and press FIRMLY. The SIM drawer will pop out.
