Exchange2010/Outlook 2010 text message sync - can this be turned off at a policy level?

It is possible to turn off this feature in the activesync policy on the phone itself, but can this be disabled at a policy level so that any Windows Mobile 6.5 devices cannot sync text messages to the Exchange server or send text messages from Outlook 2010?
We have removed the text message feature from OWA using the set-owavirtualdirectory command, but cannot see a way of removing this feature completely from activesync. Is this not possible for Windows Mobile devices synching with Outlook 2010?

Hi,
Im not sure if somebody in this forum already provided the answer.. To be able to stop the text message sync with outlook for SAMSUNG S3, you can disble it by following this steps:
1) Go to your phone Settings
2) Select "Microsoft Exchange ActiveSync" under "Accounts"
3) Select "Settings"
4) Select the account you are using in microsoft exchange
5) Scroll down until you reach "Server Settings" then untick "Sync SMS"
Once done, your SMS messages will now never be going to your outlook's inbox.
Hope this helps.

Outlook 2010 text messages?

What's the best, low cost way to send text messages with outlook 2010?

Tasks/Reminders added from Outlook (iCloud Control Panel synced) can't be checked off as completed on iOS

I have Outlook on my PC, and can interact with the iOS reminders/tasks through syncing with the iCloud Control Panel. However, if I add a task/reminder this way I have been unable to mark the reminder as complete on my iOS devices (iPhone and iPad). The reminders show up, but clicking on the circle to the left of the task just updates the UI (fills in a circle). If you exit the reminders app or Today screen and go back, the task still remains uncompleted in the list.
Has anyone else seen this? Right now, from iOS, I can only get rid of the reminders by deleting (instead of completing) them ... which is not ideal.
Current Configuration:
iPhone 5s with iOS 7.1
iPad Air with iOS 7.1
Outlook 2010 on Windows 7 with iCloud Control Panel 3.1

Hello desert_dweller5,
It sounds like you art trying to access a Shared Photo Stream, but you do not have one of the devices to enable your Apple ID as an iCloud account. The following article provides information on how Shared Photo Streams work:
iCloud: Photo Stream FAQ
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4486
The article states that for privately Shared Photo Streams to work, the recipient will not only have to have an Apple ID, but it will have to be an iCloud account:
Friends and family with iCloud accounts can view your photos in the Photos app on any device using iOS 6 or later; on a Mac in iPhoto 9.4 or Aperture 3.4 or later; on a Windows PC with Windows Vista or later and iCloud Control Panel 2.0 or later installed; or on a second generation or later Apple TV with software version 5.1 or later installed. They can also view your photos on the web if you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your Shared Photo Stream.
Since you do not have an iCloud account and just and Apple ID, your friend can share the photo stream as a public website so that you can view it, as stated in the same article:
Can I share with people who don't have an iCloud account?
Yes. If you enable Public Website in the settings or options for your shared photo stream your photos will be published to a website that anyone can view in an up-to-date web browser.
To be able to change an Apple ID to an iCloud account, you would need an iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch with iOS 5 or later or a Mac with OS X Lion v10.7.4 or later as stated in the following article:

I get the message the Firefox prevents going to another page and have to click to allow it. Can this be turned off so I don't have to do this everytime I go to another page?

The message is this: "Firefox prevented this page from automatically redirecting to another page." I have to give it permission to redirect - a big time waster.

See:
*Firefox/Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General : Accessibility : [ ] "Warn me when web sites try to redirect or reload the page"
The setting in "Firefox > Preferences > Advanced > General" is meant as an accessibility feature, as you can see by the label of that section, so that people with disabilities or people who use screen readers do not get confused and is not meant as a safety protection to stop redirecting.

There is no way to consolidate iTunes accounts.
Setting up an iPhone has never required creation of a new Apple ID.
You've apparently purchased content with both Apple ID's. Sign into the device with the correct Apple ID and sync the content.

Why am I being asked to authenticate for example when dragging a picture from an email to my desktop? Can this be turned off? It started with Lion

Why am I being asked to authenticate by entering my password when for example dragging a picture from an email to my desktop? This started with Lion. Is there a way to turn it off? Thanks,

I found that right clicking on my hard drive, Get Info and under Sharing & Permissions when the Privilege was changed to Read & Write, the authentication pop ups stopped and I could drag pictures to my desktop and save attachments there also. Now my hubby and I will investigate the Names under S&P. We know one is System, another is him sharing. There is a third that says everyone so it will be the main one we research. I get the basics of what they are - to secure folders etc. from someone getting into my computer. I'm sure this is a pretty basic description of the issue so I guess if you read this and try any of this to stop the authentication, you should make sure you know what and why.
Thanks for your help softwater.

Smart-Paste ... not what I want - can it be turned off?

It used to be that when I was in a terminal window, and I think most
other applications, I could highlight, then copy a selection of
text and have just the text data get pasted to a chosen destination.
Now, when I do this, it seems to carry the font, formatting, color
and even the URL status with it when I paste it. This plops a
big ugly blob of text that does not fit into the destination where it
should not be.
If I just want to cut some text and paste it in an email or a text
document this ends up ruining the formatting, putting control
characters and what-not into the destination and in general really
causing a pain in the butt.
My question is can this be turned off, over-ridden, undone or
removed somehow?
Second, where is this controlled ... in the clip-board? And if so,
is there a way to configure the clip-board not to do this or access
just the text data selectively?
The answer to this for the OS ought to be to be able to cut and
paste the formatting data separately - which would be a good
thing to be able to do in many situations, such as photo manipulation,
etc.
Thanks.

The text I was cutting and pasting was from the text of a speech
by FDR from Wikipedia.
But this weirdness happens a little on this page as if I grab my
text from above and paste it here whatever I do it leaves me with
this blue background.
I think that is because there is hidden HTML in this box ... and no way
to turn that off except edit it in HTML and remove everthing. Way
too much effort.
Personally, I really prefer to work just in text, because we really cannot
know what is going on in the background of our typing or whatever
now and the simpler the better, especially when nothing else is wanted
or needed.

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can i fix this without turning off iCloud?

My Outlook/iCloud calendar invites to others appear to work on my end and sync with my PC and mobile, but when other people "accept" the invite, it will not populate/add in to their calendar. How can I fix this without turning off iCloud?
I am at a new office that uses Outlook (not Outlook Exchange) which does not sync with my mobile... I just got iCloud set up on my PC to sync my contacts, calendar, reminders, etc... The sync worked (not without flaws, but the other issues seem solvable... I think), so that i can now see all my appointments on both my phone and on my PC. The problem I am having is that iCloud moved all of my calendar items from Outlook into iCloud calendar and now when I send out meeting/calendar invites the recipients may accept them, but the meeting does not get added to their calendar. This is a huge problem and may mean that i need to turn off iCloud.
Does anyone know how to fix this?
Thanks!

I am replying to my own post here as I seem to have fixed the problem.
I do have some calendars that are shared. Some of those are shared with users who have time zone support turned on. So i activated time zone support on my iphone, then deleted my icloud subscription. I then signed in to icloud again and voila... problem solved.
It is a weird one as the other calendar views were always fine and when you opened an event that appeared in the wrong day (on list view), the correct date of the event was shown in the information...
one more bug in a complicated system I guess

Is there an incompatibility between iPad2 and outlook 2010 calendar? I can sync appts down to the device but not up to the computer calendar.

Hi all,
Would you know whether there is an incompatibility between iPad2 and outlook 2010 calendar? I can sync outlook appointmens down to the device but not up to the computer calendar. The same occurs with my iPhone 4, can sync appointments down to the device, but not back up to the computer. Any help appreciated!

Most computer's USB ports do not have enough power to charge iPads while they are active. An iPad will charge while in sleep mode, but very slowly.

Outlook 2010 won't sync over the air with my iPhone 4s

I got my iphone 4s at the same time that my work switched to Outlook 2010. Now I can only sync calendars manually and not automatically over the air as I enter appointments. Plus, only appointments entered on the PC will sync with the phone - appointments entered on the phone won't sync with my work calendar at all. What's going on??? I don't know if it's a phone issue or an Outlook 2010 issue, since both changed at the same time. I did notice that new appointments typed on my phone are a different color than those entered on my PC, if that matters at all (it may just be a new feature of ios5).

There are text messages that I'm having trouble deleting. With some of my text messages, I can swipe to the left and delete ... or press and hold, get more and delete to trash can icon. But there are some where neither will work. Can't delete. Help!

But once again, I do not want to lose my other texts, app progress, and photos. I could sync the photos but i would still lose the app progress and texts. I would only restore if it was the only option left, but the other space, as already stated, isnt the main concern. The main concern is those 'deleted' texts. If they go, then a good size chunk of the other space goes. I know you CAN delete texts for good. It worked fine before. All i want to know is why its not working for me now, and how to fix it.
I also know that when you delete texts on your iphone, they get marked for deletion, however they stay on your device (thats why they show up when you search for them.) then when you sync your device with itunes, the texts marked for deletion should disappear. When i synced they didnt disappear. Thats what i need an explanation/solution for. Why the texts marked for deletion didnt get fully deleted after the sync.

I can't receive text messages (sms) when imessage is turned on.

this is very frustrating

Hi shineshinebobo,
Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it seems like you are not receiving sms messages. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help you isolate or resolve the issue.
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
If you can't send and receive SMS
You will need these to send and receive SMS:
An iPhone
A strong cellular network connection through a cellular network provider
A domestic SMS plan from your cellular provider (You might need an international messaging plan to send SMS to an international contact. Contact your carrier for more information)
A roaming SMS plan when you use a cellular provider's network that is different from your billing cellular provider's network (Learn more about roaming and contact your carrier for more information.)
To resolve issues sending and receiving SMS, follow these steps
Go to Settings and turn airplane mode off.
Make sure that you have a cellular network signal in the status bar of your iPhone. If there's no signal, learn more about troubleshooting no service.
Restart your iPhone.
Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
Remove your SIM card and insert it again.
If you still can't send or receive SMS, follow these steps
Make sure that the contact who's trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
Make sure that you're using the area code with the contact's phone number. When sending messages internationally, you also need to use the contact's international code.
If you're using a "Pay as you go" SMS plan, make sure it has enough available balance. Contact your carrier if you're unsure of your SMS plan or the available balance.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact from the Contacts app. Send a new message to the contact.
Back up and restore your iPhone as new.
If your carrier has recently ported your phone number, the porting process might not be complete. Contact your carrier to confirm that the porting process is complete.
Contact your carrier to confirm that you're provisioned for sending SMS and are in an area with cellular coverage.
Contact your carrier to verify there are no blocks or filters placed on your wireless account preventing you from sending SMS.
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Cheers,
Mario
