No, you will not hear calls with do not disturb on, unless a contact in
your favourites call you, or you get the same call within three minutes.
You can also tell do not disturb to silence all incoming calls in its
settings.

I've used google maps in the background. When it's time for the

I thought there was a way for it to repeat, but I may be getting my apps
confused.
I'll check and get back to you.

The only improvement I can see is, a better speaker. My younger brother has

Many people do not hold their iDevice as vertically or horizontally as

Hi Cher,
If you tell iTunes to move the app to the recycle bin when you delete it in
iTunes then it will be removed completely. However, the app is still in your
purchase history and if you ever search for that app again in the app store
you can redownload it without having to purchase it again.
Hi Susan,
The easiest is to delete the app on your iPod Touch, if you are syncing apps
with iTunes this will also uncheck the app in iTunes and it won't reappear
on your iPod Touch.
To delete an app, just do a double tap and hold on the app (or any app for
that matter), Voiceover will say Moving

Hi Teresa,
I think your best bet is probably to deauthorize all your computers and then
reauthorize them. To do this, go to the Store menu and choose the View your

Computer Authorizations. It tells you how many computers
Hi,
In Settings/Siri, you can designate which contact is yours. If you labeled your
address as a home address or you only have one listed, Siri will know it's your
home address. Similarly, if you have labeled a work address as part of that
contact, Siri will know it's a work address.
HTH,
Thanks, anna. Unfortunately, I’ve attempted several times to deauthorize and
