What country are you calling if you dial 9 first?
If you dial '9' first, that usually means that you are using a company phone system that lets you dial internal extensions directly. Dialing '9' just means you're dialing outside the company switchboard.
How to switch from pulse to tone dialing?
On a modem, or any other device that uses the "AT" command set, you can put the letter P for Pulse or T for Tone in the dial string. For example, ATDP9,1800T555P0123 would pulse-dial 9 (pause) 1 8 0 0, then tone dial 555, and then pulse dial 0123. On many landline push-button phones, there is a switch that allows you to select Tone or Pulse dialing. If you have the switch set to Pulse and hit the star key, the phone will switch over to Tone dialing for the rest of that call.
Will dialing 112 get Highway Patrol help?
This might work in some states or countries outside the U.S., but in the United States the default emergency number is 9-1-1. The Public Safety Answering Point (PSAP) that receives your call will route it to the local highway patrol if their assistance is warranted. Dialing 112 on any GSM mobile phone will get you the emergency number, even in the United States.
Why do people sometimes need to dial 9 or 011 first?
9 is often used to access an outside line on office telephone systems. It tells the system that you want to make an external phone call instead of just ringing another extension on the private system. Without the '9', the system could not easily tell apart, for example, the internal extension number 200 and an external public phone number that started with 200. 011 is used as an international calling code in North America. Dialing it tells the phone network that you want to make an international call outside America, and then lets you dial the overseas number.
What is a dialing pause?
In some cases when automatically dialing a number, you may need to tell the autodialer to pause to allow for a secondary dial tone. For example, if you dial '9' to get an outside line on your business phone system, you may need to program a pause after the 9 to allow time for the outside dial tone.
Did 911 come from September 11 2001?
if you're talking about the number you call when there's an emergency, obviously not. dialing 911 was around WAY before the 9/11 incident
Do you have to press send while dialing 911?
It depends on the specific mobile phone. Many mobile phones (cell phones) will connect a call to 911 if you dial 911, although there may be a pause before the call goes through. Some phones will even connect you to 911 if you press and hold the 9 key. However, if you are in doubt, pressing 9-1-1-Send will always connect you to 911, anywhere in the US or Canada.

What is the story about dialing 90?
The story goes something like this. You're sitting at your desk in some large office. Your phone rings. The person on the other end claims to be a phone company technician and asks you to help him or her perform a test by flashing the switch hook and then dialing the special test code '90#'. Some weeks later, you get called into the boss's office to answer for some outrageously expensive international call that was billed to your extension. The idea is that you would be transferring the call (flash) to an outside line (9) and the operator (0). You then hang up, completing the transfer of the call, and the outside caller can now ask the operator to complete a call to anywhere in the world, with your company paying premium rates for the privilege. However, very, very few PBX managers are actually stupid enough and/or incompetent enough to allow an outside call to be transferred this way.
To send a fax long distance do you first have to dial 1 then 9?
If you are using a fax machine in which you must first dial 9, then for a long distance call you would still dial 9 first. After dialing 9, you would then enter 1 and then the fax number including the area code.
