How can I make my contacts & messages private/confidential?

How can I make my contacts and messages private?

I don't think you can passcode protect your contacts. Have you thought of giving the numbers a false name/heading? Maybe something like Wal-Mart or pizza take out (or other nonsensical names having nothing to do with the actual contact)? If you want the numbers hidden regardless, I doubt that it's possible.
EDIT
Another idea is to have multiple contact sets and restore the set you want to use/have on your phone at any one time. There are contact backup apps to do this...one I use is called My Contacts Backup (free) which backs up your contacts to a file which you then email to yourself. Make multiple backups and then restore the set (after first deleting the previous set using the "delete contacts" option within the app) you wish to have on your phone. Restoring contacts involves tapping on the contact backup file (in VCard or CSV format) which will then restore them on the device.
Have you tried one of the apps that may help? Search the AppStore for "private contacts"...there seem to be a few free ones out there.

  • How can I make my iWeb site private?

    How can I make my iWeb site private with a password?

    The inbuilt facility to do this disappeared with the demise of MobileMe. It is possible: some ISPs offer this facility (GoDaddy is one) so you should start by checking whether yours does.
    If not, you can do it yourself provided your ISP allows you to add an .htaccess file to your foldere - not all do. Also it's not entirely straighforward if you are unfamiliar with the techniques involved.
    This page describes the method:
    http://www.thesitewizard.com/apache/password-protect-directory.shtml
    Please note the caveats at the bottom of the page: this isn't a highly secure method and you should not rely on it to protect sensitive information.

  • How can I make my Contact Form send info to my email?

    Greetings! I have below a contact form that i have creaed with some help but I can't seem to make it send the information to my email address after it is submitted. That is my most important issue right now.
    A secondary issue is, can I make it so once this form is submitted it send the info to my email without doing a page redirect?
    Thanks in advance!

    Ok what about this code located at www.ybcreations.com/ContactTest.php?
    <?php

              'comment' => 'Please enter your Message to continue.'
    // Set form status
    $form_complete = FALSE;
    // configure validation array
    $validation = array();

  • How can I make my contact us page a downloadable PDF

    Sorry for what may be a simple task but I am not sure how to create a pdf of my contact page at http://glasgow-dentists.co.uk/contact-us/
    I would like patients to be able to download and print the page as I will be adding directions.
    Also I am considering putting in an email function so they can email themselves or someone else the pdf.
    Would be great if it could remain clickable somehow for the map.
    Appreciate any quick pointers to where I could learn how to do this.
    Also if there is a specific reader/software I need please let me know.
    I am using Windows 7
    thanks,
    Colin

    Are you wanting the form in a PDF format, or just create a PDF of the directions to your business in PDF form and post that. Assuming the latter, you just create your document in any editor, word processor, or layout program and print it to a PDF. Then simply put up the PDF and add a link to it. If you want the form information you get into other issues due to some license restrictions on forms. You can create a form that can be printed and the data sent to you with no problem. The form data (FDF file) can be imported into the form and printed for your use, or added to a database. If you create a PDF of the web page (probably should work directly with the section of the page rather than the whole screen), you can then add the form fields to that PDF (I tried and the automated adding did not work, but your form is simple and manual addition is simple). Add a button for the submit button and send the FDF file to your web site (or e-mail if you prefer with mailto:<address>, but be aware that the e-mail does not always work for clients and is also not secure). If you select the PDF file submission you get into requirements for Reader Rights and the license restrictions (I am not sure how much this has changes in AA XI -- you would have to read the license agreement -- but it would not be acceptable in a business under previous versions).

  • How can you create a contact sheet that you can email?

    I see that you can print a contact sheet but how can you make a contact sheet that you can email where receiver can open the thumbnails and view?

    Hi,
    You can either use Bridge and the Output workspace, or grab optional plug-ins for CS5 and run Ps on OSX in the 32 bit mode. (Or grab the excellent 3rd party script, Contact Sheet X, and run that in Ps. http://ps-scripts.sourceforge.net/ContactSheetX/csx.html).

    It sounds like if you open Preferences in Word there will be a place where you can specify where to store autorecover files. Right now it sounds like it's pointing to somewhere that doesn't exist.

    How can I make a rule to mark all messages sent to Mail Trash as Read?
    When I look at some emails on my phone, I can see from the title that I don't need to read the email so I delete it without opening it. When I go to my Macbook Pro and open mail, the number of unread messages in my Trash shows next to the name. It drives me nuts. Can I just set a rule to mark all messages sent to trash as read? If that isn't possible, I'd take just making the number not show beside the Trash folder.

    Just in the case that I actually do need to go back to them for some reason. I have some OCD tendencies which is also why the number beside the folder drives me nuts.

  • How can i make my e-mail account private on my wife's ipad

    How can I make my .mac account and my wife's gmail account private for each of us on the IPad?

    You can't - the iPad is essentially a single-user device. You could try providing feedback here to see if it makes it into a future iOS release http://www.apple.com/feedback/ipad.html - you aren't the first person to enquire about this, and it's possibe that the more people who request it the more likely it is to appear.
