    HELP

  • dan May 03, 2009

    I have changed the setting to this but it doesn't do it.  When I have set it in either favorites mode or ipod mode it goes to those pages when i double click.  


    My husbands exact same phone works where when he double clicks it goes to favorites.  When he single clicks while he is on another page of the multiple pages he has created by additions to his home screen, it takes him right back to the home screen.  Thoughts?

By default, the home button will just close the open application and show the last displayed set of favorites (not necessarily the first page of favorites).

One option for you would be to set the double tap option for the home button to take you to the first page of favorites. By default, the double-click will show you your Phone Favorites, but this can be altered as follows: Choose Settings - General - Home Button. Then choose "Home" as the double-click option.

Hope this helps.

How to Hard Reset an iPhone

<p>Owners and users of the Apple iPhone generally report loving the phone, but they also report frequent lock-ups where the screen suddenly freezes or goes black altogether. Some report success solving the problem with a soft reset or the holding down of the sleep/wake and home buttons for the 10 second reset requirement. If this does not work, a hard reset is required to bring the iPhone back to life.<br /> <br /> <span>Instructions</span> <ol> <li> Update iTunes to version 7.4 or higher from the Apple website if you haven't already. <li> Connect the iPhone to your PC. You are automatically taken to the sync management page, and iTunes automatically begins syncing, or copying/backing-up the calendars, <a href="http://www.ehow.com/internet/">Internet</a> bookmarks, contacts and e-mail accounts stored on the iPhone. Sync everything on the phone or pick and choose from the menu you're given. Sync everything on the iPhone you don't want to lose, because a hard reset restores the iPhone to its original state and all data added since it was first taken out of the box is lost. <li> Go to the "Summary" tab at the top of the screen and select "Restore" from the drop-down menu. <li> Wait as the iPhone hard resets. The iPhone comes back up in it's original factory state and a prompt appears asking if you want to restore data settings. <li> Select "Yes" to restore the synced data to the iPhone.</li></ol> <br /> <br /> <br />

Home page google

If you tell us what browser you are using we may be able to tell you how to make Google or any page your home page.
Let us take Firefox.
Open your Firefox browser
In the Search bar at the top on the right, type in Google and click the search button (the icon of a magnifying glass)

Here is what you might see. In this case the first link is to google.ca (where the search originated)

9f457ed0-a969-419c-b324-691844b98711.png

Click the first link to see something like this


fba0ea2f-ad97-4f0a-b666-3ce56693bec9.png
This is the actual (current page). If this what you want as your home page, do not enter any search keyword and let the page remain the current one.
Now look at the menu bar at the top of the Firefox window for the TOOLS menu. Click Tools, ad locate submenu OPTIONS

02dfa278-498b-48e3-a194-39b7cf19a33f.png

Click the OPTIONS submenu. A tabbed window opens. Click the GENERAL tab. This is what you see.

0ec8e2fc-b793-4b3d-9212-47d06cead6d7.png

You see the three buttons Use Current Page, Use Bookmark..., Restore Default.
Now since the Google page is your current page (in the browser) click the button Use Current page and click the OK button at the bottom.
The Use Bookmark... gives you an alternative to selecting the Home Page. You could bookmark a specific page that you discovered while browsing and use it at a home page.
If anything goes wrong, you can still restore the default home page, probably chosen by the manufacturer.

How to save time in driving directions using Iphone

One of the uses of the iPhone’s Map application is to get driving directions, right?. The starting point and destination point fields offer the Bookmarks button, you can quickly use a bookmark, recent location, or contact when searching for directions. For me, the first thing you should do in Maps is to find your address your own address and then bookmark it—this will make finding directions to and from locations as easy as tapping your home bookmark
