How to Change iPhone Settings
Your iPhone allows you to do many things: talk on the phone, surf the Internet and watch movies. But before you can do these things, you have to first be able to change the iPhone settings to your satisfaction. This is a relatively easy process for anyone who is the least bit technologically proficient.

Hey! The settings you are thinking of are called "profiles" and the iPhone doesn't have them. I'm a former BB user too, had a BB 9000 before I got my iPhone so I understand the learning curve. Personally, I don't care for the iPhone and miss my BB so I'm switching back to the BB 9000 that I had. I really wanted to like the iPhone and it has some neat features but I miss way too may of the BB features to stay with the iPhone. If you decide to do like me and go back to BB, the BB Torch is very similar to the iPhone but still has all the wonderful BB features that all BB users love, but also has the neat features that the iPhone has. Hope this helps some. Good luck! -

Hi there, I'm not sure if any of you have had a blackberry before making the switch to iPhone - but today, an iphone 4 was under the tree for me so that swtich was made. Anywho, my question is; you know on a blackberry not only can have a certain ring tone but you can also set a certain sound profile for select contact(s), right? Meaning that if you put your phone on ''vibrate'', your select contact(s) will still come through under the profile weather it be ''loud'', vibrate'', ''silent'', etc. Hopefully someone knows what I'm talking about here. New to the iphone and have NO CLUE...
