IPhone 5s :: Can Lock Mail Access
Aug 31, 2014
More and more our phones are becoming communal devices, we lend them to friends, family, co-workers to make calls, play games, share information and numerous other activities. He works in an business area where information security is at a premium. As such he doesn't store any secure information on his phone. Â
I totally understand and respect his decision, however there's an Achilles heel to his methodology. Like most business oriented people the main flow of company information comes in the form of email. Not getting that instant access on your phone can be a detriment. Currently when he has down time he'll open up a browser on his phone and log into his webmail. It works, but it's just not as effective as having the email on the iPhone and having the alerts. My question being, is there a way he can lock down his mail? Is there an app that would require an additional password to open Mail? Or is there an option so that the Mail can only be opened with a fingerprint?

My mother (age 68), keeps changing her password and forgets it. She also turns on sim lock without remembering the password. Can't explain why she does it. This has been a weekly event since getting the phone. She did the same to new hp pc. After 6 hours with tech support they deemed it owner damage. After sending it back and $400 it's fixed. We set it up with an account for her and a locked admin account. This won't happen again to the pc.
I've looked through all the docs and can't find any way to lock the settings. There must be. What if your kid watching a video or playing a game- goes in and starts pushing buttons in settings?

I'm trying to setup a new exchange email account on an iPhone 4. This is normally pretty straight forward, however, on this particular phone I can't get into the Mail, Contacts, Calendars settings. When I go into Settings and click on it, the screen flicks up into the settings for a second and then boots me out of settings and back to the main display
I have tried restarting the phone to no avail and checked to make sure it has the latest software update. Is there anything else I can try before I resort to resetting back to default settings?
Info:iPhone 4, iOS 5.1, Business environment

i don't understand why it is not possible to restrict access to messages and mail, this feature is important in different cases like:
you give you child a phone and don't want to text all day with their friends, also if your kid is less than 13 years you could block this feature so that he can't chat with strangers.
also this feature is important because if you enable this feature you could have 2 different passwords for accesing messages or mail, this is important when your friends or family knows your main password but they don't know they password for restricted apps.
why would some one wants to block Internet, camera, safari, and other apps but you can't block messages or mail?

We all hand our phones to friends, colleagues, children, for them to use for various reasons but I can't be the only one that doesn't want everyone I hand my phone to to have access to my personal messages and information.
Looking for a guest user pass code solution that would allow the owner of the phone to choose what the guest has access to, like the guest user on a computer.

iPhone 4s, ios 5.1, Verizon customer. I have never had an issue until this phone. Why I can see the "delete from server" option, but I can't check it? It's really annoying to delete emails from my phone and then have to go back and delete from my computer.

Shortly after I got my iPhone 4S, I added my gmail account to the mail app (not the gmail app),so that I could read my email on my phone, and specifically not using the Gmail app, but using the email app, and adding the Gmail account as an Exchange Server so that my Google Contacts would sync to the device. It worked for weeks. Now, suddenly, it says wrong password whenever I try to check my email. I have removed it and added it back. I did not change anything on my email account configuration that would cause this.
Since it happened, though, I have removed the account and re-added it. It seems that it would stop me from adding the account if I were using the wrong password, but it lets me add the account with no problem, and only gives the wrong password message after that, when it tries to begin downloading emails.
I have typed in the password enough times today to make sure that I am typing it in correctly. I have been able to log into my gmail account via the web successfully (proving that I do know my own password). I even downloaded and installed the gmail app and was able to use it to get to my email. But that leaves my phone with zero contacts, because I keep all my contacts in Google Contacts, and the Gmail app doesn't seem to add any contacts to the contacts list on the phone. I need it to work the way it was set up & working before today. I don't know if Apple changed something, if Google changed something, or what. I would think that there would be others using this functionality who may be similarly stuck.
So my question is: How can I access my Gmail account from my iphone and have my google contacts brought into the phone's contact list, and constantly synchronized with Google contacts, like I had going before today? With the addition of iCloud, it gets really confusing really quick. The simple solution that I was using was so nice. I will be sad if it is gone for good...

I just got a Nokia E72 and I can't access my mail. I can send emails through the emails I have set up, but I can't do anything else (including seeing my emails) All settings are matched to what they should be. In addition my GPS does not work. I've downloaded the newest Ovi Maps and everything. Google Maps works like a charm though, so I'm not sure what is up with the phone. Everything is being done through wifi, don't have my data plan set up yet. One thing I notice is that my phone always asks like "use/access wlan in offline mode." Does this mean anything?

I am new to Blackberry having just got my Curve from Virgin Media. I have set myself up an e mail account via the blackberry with a @virginmedia.blackberry.com address. Now I want to be able to access that e mail from my home MAC & my work PC but where do I get the information I need to configure Outlook & Mac mail (outgoing /incoming servers etc.) I have spent a fruitless hour talking to Virgin & sifting through the Blackberry web site. It must be obvious but not to me at the mo?

For accessing my e-mail I would like to use my wireless LAN connection at first and only if there is no WLAN connection available I would like to use the packet-Data (GPRS, 3G) connection.I can define a "Destination" which contains both WLAN and GPRS connections with priorities.I can not, however, select this "Destination" in my mail settings. Only a direct connection (exactly one WLAN or GPRS/3G connection) is available.
What am I doing wrong?How could I set prioritized access groups for e-mail? *)What exactly is the use of "Destinations"?

I recieved a Blackberry message stating I needed to enter my email password on the account which I have been using. I have followed the instruction by entering setup and clicking Email Accounts. On that screen it allows to me two options Internet Mail Account & Enterprise Account. However when I try and click the Internet Mail account nothing happens, it does not let me use this option. I have tried the Enterprise Account and it says "Status: initialzing service" but nothing is happening. (been like this for 30mins)

Just acquired a new blackberry 9300. Trying to set up e-mail, followed the Blackberry demo screens but I'm not getting the options demo'd. My phone isn't letting me choose between an Internet e-mail Account and an Enterprise )work related) account, so all I'm getting is an Enterprise set up, asking for an activation code. No idea how to get round this. Any ideas how i can get access to the internet mail set up.

I have a Curve which is on a consumer account (o2 UK). It is not a business account, not using exchange and not requiring any particular security.My BB will access an O2 e-mail account but not a particular account which I own.O2 tell me that the reason I cannot access it is that the e-mail account is set up in such a way that BB has treated it as a business account, and is applying Exchange security to its access. O2 believe that this account is registering with BES.s a consumer O2 believe my access should be through BIS. They are unable to tell me what setting at my e-mail host would cause the Blackberry servers to pick it up wrongly. They tell me the problem is outside my control. My e-mail hosts don't understand the problem either. If I could tell them what to change, they would try to do it.
So my questions are:- 1) Does anyone know if there is a setting at my hosts that would change things so that my e-mail address is treated like any other POP3 or alternatively 2) is there something that I can do in the Blackberry world that will move / recategorise my e-mail service correctly.

We've discussed before that Keep Awake and Location are the primary permissions to block with Access Lock. There are quite a few apps that have those permissions active that simply do not need them. Why does ES File Explorer need to know my Location for what it does?As a group we've worked through a lot of the whittling down for battery saving and smooth use of the G4 over the past few months. I'm now circling back to some things to see if I can't tighten things up even more.
So, what are some of the other permsissions we should perhaps disable by default (unless they are very obviously needed)? What does the WiFi Change (or Bluetooth Change) permission do? Or, more to the point, what potentially happens if I disable that permission?I figure there aren't a lot of things beyond Keep Awake and Location that are big battery eaters, but what say ye?
