How do I block unwanted text messages in "Messages" under Maveriks? 
I can do it on the iPhone but not on the iMac (which is pointless).

Go to your Settings and Un-Check your Data.. that should stop them if Not call Verizon 1-800-922-0204 Option 3 ask to stop the Text)  And have fun on your Trip.. b33

  • HT1688 Is there an "easy" way to either 1) cut and paste a large block of text from the Messages app or 2) access this text through a computer?

    Tap and hold the text you want to copy, then tap Copy.

    How do I block unwanted texts

    True call/SMS blocking must be done at the carrier level. So, contact your carrier to see if they offer call/sms blocking. Some do, some don't.

  • Block unwanted texts

    Block spam texts

    Check with your cell carrier, and see if they off offer the ability to block specific text message sources.
    You could create new Contact just for junk/spam text. In the contact specify No alert, and No vibrate for any text message for anyone associated with this contact. Now when you get spam text associate it with this contact and any future messages will not bother you unless you actually look.
    You can associate as many different text sources as you like to this single Contact.
    However if you pay for texts received, then you need to contact your cell carrier to get them blocked.
    Note:  you can do something similar for junk phone calls if you install a silent ringtone (Google it)

  • How can I block spam text messages from an email address?

    Twice per week I am getting spam texts in the middle of the night from a random email address, in reference to a free Target gift card. The problem is, the sender's email address is different every time. Any ideas how to make it stop??

    Forward the texts to SPAM and follow the directions in the reply text that you receive from Verizon.
    Or log into your on-line MyVerizon account, click on the blue More Actions under I Want To, under Safety and Security, click on the blue Block Internet Spam.  Enter the e-mail addresses, or go to the bottom and check block all.  Click the red Apply.
    That was one of the first things I did when starting my current account with Verizon Wireless. I blocked all premium messages and messages from the Internet. Those blocks are still in place to this day.

    Not from the phone itself. Contact your carrier. In the U.S., all the major carriers offer some type of blocking for calls and text.

  • How do I block unwanted incoming controller messages?

    This is a followup to How do I prevent the patch from advancing multiple times per switch press?
    The Mainstage 2.2 release notes list blocking unwanted incoming controller messages as a feature. However, I can't find anything in the docs about it and I've been poking at the UI for a while now trying to find it to no avail. Can anyone tell me how to do this?

    Hi
    Further to this, the 'new' (MS 2.2) way requires the use of the new Assignments and Mappings pane in Edit mode. The advantages are that you can map, and block, MIDI without needing a Screen Control in the layout.
    1) Click on the Action gear on the right, and make a new assignment.
    2) Activate the Assign and Map button by clicking on it (goes red)
    3) Send in the MIDI message you wish to block
    4) De-activate the Assign and Map button
    Alternatively for Step 3, you clould manually set the MIDI message to be blocked by clicking on "no Assignment" in the left column.
    Note that the default is to have "None" in the Control Inspector (which does the 'blocking'). I vaguley recall that is does not block everything?

  • Blocking a text message

    Is there any way to block a text message from being sent to me?

    No, not from your iPhone... but you may be able to block a particular number If you go to your AT&T store and ask them to do it. They'd be the only people that could block a number, if they can't noone can!

  • Object variable or With block variable not set error message

    When processing the Rate application I get a "Object variable or With block variable not set error message" What is causing this error and how do I fix it?

    Hi Brian,
    I'm afraid that in some ways this reply won't be very helpful though it may help you save some time. 
    The error message you describe is a very generic one thrown by Microsoft .NET (the programming platform that SAP is written with, see the link at the bottom of this message) and not being 'handled' by SAP. 
    This means from a SAP perspective that any one of many unrelated things may be causing the error and that it gives you virtually no help in tracking the problem down in SAP.
    We've plagued by this message quite a bit, my advice is to look for clues at to what may be happening elsewhere, e.g. try:
    1. The windows event viewer, if you are in a multi-server environment then check the event log on all machines.
    2. The SQL Server event log (this can be found in Management Studio - Management - SQL Server Logs assuming you're using SQL Server 2005)
    3. IIS logs, usually these are text files in the following location -
    HTTP.SYS Error Log - %windir%\System32\LogFiles\HTTPERR
    IIS Website Log - %windir%\System32\LogFiles\W3SVC#
    It is dull work trawling through all these places looking for error events with a timestamp similar to the time your error was encountered, but by doing this we've been able to troubleshoot some issues that otherwise would have taken us ages to rectify via trial and error.
    Sorry that there is no definitive answer, but if itu2019s of any help there's many more of us out there who this error message causes trouble for.
    Regards,
    Iain

  • Is there a way to make a mobile number clickable in an inDesign PDF document, that will open a Texting or Instant Messaging Application?

    Thoughts are to allow groups of individuals mobile numbers to be shared across larger organizations, from within a PDF document, that the mobile numbers would be clickable, and open up a Text or instant messaging application on either the computer, tablet, or smart phone, for instant communication.

  • Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"? (OSX 10.10)

    Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"?
    I can change it for one conversation, but then it resets to the default, tiny font.
    The preferences menu only lets me change the conversation font.
    (OSX 10.10)

    Hi,
    As you may remember there used to be a Messages pane to the Preferences where the Font and colour of the Balloons or background and the Font text colour could be changed.
    And there was a Format Menu for character, word and Sentence changes in the current IM or iMessage.
    Those have gone in Yosemite's version of Messages (Despite it retaining the designation of Messages 8 the same as Mavericks' version).
    All that can be done now is set the size of the font and this has been moved to the General Section of the Preferences.
    The Yosemite version has also been fixed to using the Balloons style of send and receiving any type of messages as well.
    Changing the Font would involved editing the Balloon.transcript file.

I can assure you that I do respect all of you more that you maight me thinking of. i have the same difficulties in typing in small letters like yours in reading texts in CAPITAL letters.......tant pis, c' est la vie
    For web and computing experts I would like to remind them that all the peoples nowadays have the same needs (or hobbies if you wish) regarding the electronic devices, web, compouters, softwares and that sort of thing.
    If I WERE not to have technical support because of my prefiously used capital letters in me text messages, I have to confess that next time I will be more carefull about the devices producers........ I live and always learn (SOCRATES, girasko, aei didaskomenos)
    Two questions
    1. I noticed on the you tube videos about the new ipad that the main icons are more than mine (i.e. the icon of facebook and a number or others are missing)
    2. I would like to ask you to do me a favour, thanks for your patiene. Still I have not understood how (in which way, the pictures, transfered from my system or new taken by the ipad camera are uploaded directly to the FaceBook. I suppose that I will not have the same difficulties regarding the videos to both Facebook AND YoutTube. Thanks a lot for your patience with me, from now on I will be more carefull about posting messages to you referring to technical support

    Some of the apps shown in adverts / videos have been downloaded from the App Store, they don't come pre-installed e.g. the Facebook app is a free download the app store : 'official' Facebook app.
    To upload photos to Facebook you can use the above app - you can't, for example, use Safari on the iPad to upload content to sites.
    Not sure whether any apps allow you to upload videos to YouTube (I don't use the site).
