How to disable/restrict personal hotspot without turning off the phone's data?

Web restrictions work well for iphones for my kids.  We use the circle of disney at home, with the circle of disney GO! product to provide a filtering not at home.  (we also use restrictions to disable Safari and don't allow apps, we know to be installed, otherwise, the app store is disabled.)  We are quite draconian parents.  But it's not important right now)

Turning on personal hotspot on a phone with the data actually bypasses * everything *.  If kid 2 has a phone with no data, but a browser.  Child 1 to an iphone that has locked the web browser of the restrictions on, and is allowed to have data that it can play Pokémon Go, read some wiki apps, and use the iMessage.

Child 1 turn on personal hotspot, kid2 connects sound phone (or laptop or other) through it and volia! Unfettered internet access.

IF, however, there is a way to disable the personal hotspot, the question is carefully disappears.  Yes, you can still play Pokémon Go and iMessage is always turned on, but you can't be sneaky.  (please, no comments about how I should trust my children.  I do, but I was once a male 14yo.  full stop.)

I could disable data completely, but I want to leave some stuff.

Web restrictions and the browser crashes are a very good start.  And I would have thought that cell parameters (with the personal hotspot OFF) lock would prevent changes.  Nope.  Allows still flipping the switch independently.

Am I missing something stupid obvious?  (certainly wouldn't be the first time.)

Cheers!

Your cell carrier allows personal hotspot for each phone number. Ask them to turn it off for the iPhone you want to not use it.

    Prioritize network connections

    OK, here's the situation.
    I have a regular ethernet connection that provides me with a network and the internet.
    I have also a tablet PC which I attach to my PC so I can use it as a controller. (Not that it is important, but it's for a DAW/Midi controller)

    My problem is that whenever I place my tablet, PC starts by ignoring my normal connection and taking the internet from my Tablet (even when it is not connected to the internet). As a result, my internet is de-energized once I tie it, if I'm not as under the wifi on my tablet.

    Hello

    We need to know what update causes this problem. I suggest that you want to run System Restore before the update will install and install all the updated manually and see update is causing the problem.

    Restore the system to an earlier point before installing this application.

    System Restore can return your files system to a point in time before you noticed a problem, without affecting documents, photos, or other personal files. If the system restore does not resolve the problem, you can undo the restore operation and choose a different restore point.

  • How to install a driver after you turn off the auto-update

    I disabled auto-update Windows Update drivers by following the instructions in the following article:

    It was due to the update of Windows Installer drivers on top of my existing bluetooth drivers and prevent the unit to work. I had to reinstall Windows to solve this, UN-installing then the installation of the Dell printer drivers did not work.
    I just bought a Freecom 2 to drive that connects via eSATA. Unfortunately, the instructions say that I don't need to install drivers because Windows will do it automatically! Ugh.
    I am reluctant to turn to the auto-update as it will probably destroy bluetooth again. So the question is: How can I install Freecom drivers and the problem of bluetooth do not breed take the risk?
    Note: Looking at the dialog box "want you Windows to download the driver software? ' there is an option to" install the driver software from Windows Update if it does not appear on my computer.
    Well well... driver Dell bluetooth software is on my computer (the software to install, it is on my C: drive and it is also installed) so not preventing him to get the version of Windows Update? I am concerned about the confidence that, given that the driver has been installed also the last time he downloaded the MS driver (although the auto-update feature was turned on at that time here). I'm afraid to think that the Dell driver's oldest (who is) and so he gets crushed.
    Thanks in advance.

    "the fact that the manual says that he needs a driver to be"automatically installed by the operating system"suggests that... he needs Windows Update."

    (1) while I don't have an external HARD drive in a box I have a case of a slot for external e-SATA replaceable hot which is about the same as a commercial external HDD, but without the box.
    When I plug in a HARD drive into the slot in Windows automatically detects the drive.
    Windows should automatically install the drivers for basic/generic for most of the devices when it detects something new just to be attached/connected. Once Windows did, this 'device' must be posted from there on.
    This is not the same thing as let the Windows updates to install the drivers.

    So, when you plug in the external hard drive on e-SATA port, the first time Windows pops up a similar message to-"new device detected... the driver installation, you can check if the device is detected and drivers are installed by going to computer management > Device Manager to see if your external HARD drive is on the list of hard drives."
    If non - R / click on hard drives and click "search physical changes.
    There is also an option here to update the drivers.

    You are quite correct disable optional updates.
    It is not a recommended option, especially for the graphics drivers and chipset.
    Personally, if the mfg of the material provides drivers on their website always download and install the drivers manually.
    As a result of that it is prudent to updated Windows configuration only updates are available so you can choose which you want to install and choose to install it on your own time inform.
    This way you can close applications and browsers and better to avoid the possibility of corruption updated leaving the priority update. It is also
    more course with a clean install of Windows to start with sp1, and then do the other updates in small batches.

    2. when the HARD drive is connected and recognized in the Device Manager are moving
    for the computer management > disk management. This shows the good
    for HARD drive capacity?
    If the HARD drive has only a small partition and unallocated space that is perhaps why only a small capacity is shown elsewhere.  You can format the HARD drive and
    create a new Partition or Partitions here.

    "b if I uninstall/remove device, then as soon as I tried to install the driver from the manufacturer it seemed to install ok, but... still bluetooth didn't work." It simply detects all devices everything I tried. »

    Hello

    I am currently managing this site Adobe Muse. I am also working on the phone right now too, but its not completely finished site. While I work on the site of phone, I also do updates on regular desktop site. Updates on the site Office me posted so I'm working on the phone, but I don't want to download the site phone should still live until its done. I tried to delete all the phone folder, but it ends up just break the site. I hope that there is a button option "Do not export phone site", but this is perhaps too good to be true. Any suggestions?

    Thank you

    Rob.

    Hello Fowel Christ,

    Go to file > Site Properties > Layout > phone > uncheck "desktop Redirection.

    This will disable the redirection. Phone site is exported, but the redirection will not occur. So if a person visits your domain on a phone site so only the desktop version would be responsible.

    Note: If anyone has the url of the page phone then only he will be able to access the phone site.

    Kind regards

  • Photon: Car dock: routing of calls through car speakers turns off the phone mic?

    The title says it all, but I'll explain it. I bought the car dock and most of the time it looks cool, but there is a weird problem. I have the phone in the dock, and I have the audio cable from the charger to the auxiliary audio port of my car. When I try to make a call, the default speaker phone. In a noisy car environment, it is difficult to hear the other person of property. While the appeal goes, there is a "speaker" down button right on the phone that I can press on, which causes the audio to be routed via the speakers of the car being music, which is excellent. However, doing so causes both the person on the other line to be able to hear me, that makes no sense and is frankly very frustrating.

    I saw a couple of discussions on the issues, then I know that I'm not the only person to have had this experience, but I was not able to find a solution yet. Someone know if there is a solution, or if at least that there is a questions recognized by Motorola that could be fixed in the future? I guess it's a software issue any.

  • Connection to the store of Windows without turning off the proxy settings.

    Original title: do not connect not not in the windows store

    It's been 2 months since I bought my laptop from sony with windows 8. not once it is is connected to the store or any other windows app despite the repeated attempts by the evolution of the proxy settings. Don't ask me to try to disable the proxy settings, because it's the only way I can have access to the internet. Please solve this problem as soon as POSSIBLE, or if not I'll have to switch to another mode of system.not only store I couldn't even connect to any windows app given.i have not yet updated my windows up to now.
    I tried each and all solutions that was posted on this issue.please suggest me proxy or any other solution parameters.

    Hi Jagan,

    1. When you say repeated attempts to change the proxy settings, have proxy settings you tried to change?

    2. your computer connected to a domain is?

    3. you receive messages or error codes?

    This problem could be due to some incorrect settings or because of the connection proxy you use.

    Using a proxy server can allow the administrator to limit access to the Internet.

    You can reduce the effect of these problems by allowing unauthenticated through your proxy server access. We recommend that you enable unauthenticated access only for connections to URLs used by each application that has a problem. Some proxy servers may suggest that you create a list of URLs (also known as the 'white list') permissions.

    Please refer to the article to address these issues that relate to the use of Windows Store apps or use of Microsoft applications that are included with Windows Update or Windows 8, you can include the addresses mentioned in the article in a list of permissions ('white list') on your proxy server and enable HTTP and HTTPS access for them :

    The use of proxies authenticated with Windows 8

    For more information, see the article:

    Using the Proxy selection and Proxy bypass lists

    You can also consult the steps by Rajesh Govind, Support Engineer, may 4, 2013 and check.
