Hi Andrew, When I had my iPhone 4 the Home Button worked very poorly and sporatically. This didn't happen right away, it was after about 8 months or so. I literally could not get anything done with it at times and eventually just took the phone to an Apple Store. Of course when I tried to

Hi Donald, What Jenny said is sort of what should happen except that the keypad could be hidden in which case you have to locate the Keypad button, double tap it and the keypad will appear. Now, if you are running iOS 6 some people have a problem where Voiceover volume is very low and hard to

Hi Graham, I'd connect your iPhone and iPad with the cable and then make sure that the syc via WiFi option is indeed checked and didn't somehow get unchecked. Before you can use WiFi sync you have to make sure it's checked and if it is not, check it and then click Apply. Also, make sure your

IF a baby uses the iphone it is useful for ex to lock the home button or specific parts of the screen so it stays in the app you intended. Or for exams for schools so the students cannot exit the exam to check for info. Or for learning impaired using the i device with specific apps. hth, Ioana

Hi Sandy, Guided Access can be used in situations where you are letting someone use your device, but you want them to use only one program. For instance, you could keep a small child from accidentally leaving the app and opening other ones. Or you could prevent a student taking a test from
