I've blocked anonymous but it doesn't work for all: unavailable, no name, etc

It appears this question has been asked numerous times, but there is no response from Verizon. What's the deal here? I don't want to call Verizon because when I do, I'm inundated with calls from them, which I'm trying to decrease not increase. Honestly, Verizon reminds me of an ex who takes a break up badly, and I don't want to encourage continued calls, but I need to know how to stop this.

It does work.  The problem is that anonymous call rejection doesn't do what you want it to do!    ACR blocks calls from people who withhold their telephone number by entering the ACR code on their phone.  "Unavailable" and "no name" callers have not used the ACR code to block their telephone number, so the call comes through.   It's a loophole in the regulation and there is no way for the consumer to get around it.
If you feel motivated enough, a letter to the FCC or your congressman asking them to fix the loophole is your best recourse.

  • My iMessage read receipts are turned on but it doesn't work for all my contacts

    I have iMessage read receipts turned on on my iPhone 5. Several of my contacts also have it turned on. They can see when I read their messages but it's not showing up on my end. Someone explain to me how this is happening and how I can fix it. I have SEVERAL contacts who can see my read receipts but I can't see theirs. It has to be something on my end but I don't see how!
    Thank you.

    It makes things easier if you reply on your original thread rather than starting a new one - you should see a 'reply' button at the bottom of each post.
    How did the photos get onto your iPad e.g. were they copied to the iPad from your computer ? If not then you should be able to delete them directly in the Photos app on your iPad. If they were copied from your computer then they are removed from the iPad using the same process as you used to put them onto the iPad :
    Connect the iPad to your computer and select it on the left-hand sidebar (if you are using iTunes 11 on your PC then control-s should get the sidebar to show) :
    On the right-hand side of the iTunes screen select the Photos tab :
    If you just want to remove some folders/albums that you had copied from your computer then de-select them on the list :
    If you want to remove all photos that you had copied to your iPad from your computer then select and sync a folder that doesn't have any photos in it :

    Try:

    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>Game Center and sign out and sign back in

    Si vous avez utilisé la commande Save As Template depuis Pages, il y a forcément un dossier
    iWork > Pages
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    comme il y a un dossier
    iWork > Numbers
    contenant Templates > My Templates
    Depuis le Finder, tapez cmd + f
    puis configurez la recherche comme sur cette recopie d'écran.
    puis lancez la recherche.
    Ainsi, vous allez trouver vos modèles personnalisés dans leur dossier.
    Chez moi, il y en a une kyrielle en dehors des dossiers standards parce que je renomme wxcvb.template quasiment tous mes documents Pages et wxcvb.nmbtemplate à peu près tous mes documents Numbers.
    Ainsi, quand je travaille sur un document, je ne suis pas ralenti par Autosave.
    Désolé mais je ne répondrai plus avant demain.

    Q10 I turn Camera Flash On but it Doesn't work IN ALL MODES

    I know, especially stupid that it doesn't work in stabilisation mode as its often that mode used in lower light situations that would benefit from the flash... have no idea why BB doesn't allow US to chose when we want a certain function.

  • "Move Current Track Automation Data to Region" doesn't work for all

    I have been using the 'Move Current Track Automation Data to Region' and while it works fine for some types of automation data like channel volume, pan and some plugin parameters, it doesn't work for all of them.
    I haven't done exhaustive research into which parameters work and which don't, but most of the parameters for individual voices within Ultrabeat don't - which is annoying as that is what I was trying to use it for.
    Any ideas about this, or workarounds?

    OK, well an update on this in case anyone's interested.
    With some further experimentation I have discovered that this problem did not exist in Logic 7 - ie you can move current track automation data for individual Ultrabeat voices to the region.
    It's also possible to move automation data for individual Ultrabeat voices using 'Move All Track Automation Data to Region,' so I suppose this is a kind of workaround, though it can be annoying if you don't want to move all track automation data.
    I'm now assuming this is a bug in Logic 8; is there any way to convert a Logic 8 project to work in Logic 7, as this along with the touch tracks bug is making working in Logic 8 very frustrating?

  • I bought a game plants vs zombies but it doesn't work at all!

    I downloaded 2 of these i paid but it doesn't work one is just photos and the other one open a blak window an music and stops there! How can I solve the problem??

    I don't know what the two games/apps are, but if they are freezing, then try closing them completely : from the home screen (i.e.not with either of the two apps 'open' on-screen) double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the apps to close them, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    If neither of the above work then contact the developer as Julian suggests

  • How do you save data into an excel file while myRIO is acquiring data? I tried saving it using "Write to file" but it doesn't work for some reason.

    I am acquiring cosine wave and a pulse wave as input and I want to store their peak to peak values into an excel file. "Write to File" is not working for it. Is there any other vi which can be used for data logging?
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi Ssheoran,
    Can you provide more detail when you say that the Write to File VI doesn't work? Is there an error given? Or can you just not find the file on your computer? Keep in mind using this file in a Real-Time VI on the myRIO will save files on the myRIO. You will then have to transfer to your PC. Please view the following video as a guide for saving files and transferring them to your computer: (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BuREWnD6Eno). Hope this helps.

  • Spelling again | Multilingual doesn't work for all languages

    Hello,
    I am writing e-mails on a daily basis in different languages (English, German, Spanisch, Russian, and French).
    And, of course, I have set my Mail spelling checker to <Multilingual>. It works just fine with the first three languages. But it “doesn't know” the french words. Neither checks it the russian words at all...
    If I turn <Francais> on, then it works, but the other languages don't (of course).
    Have you guys an idea???
    Thanks!

    And, of course, I have set my Mail spelling checker
    to <Multilingual>. It works just fine with the first
    three languages. But it “doesn't know” the french
    words.
    Seems like it should know French. Is French on your list in system prefs/international/languages? If not, use the Edit button to add it.
    Neither checks it the russian words at all...
    OS X has never come with a Russian spell checker.

  • Exported UTI doesn't work for all account

    Hello,
    We have a QuickTime component that permits to play files with our video codec. These files also have a specific extension.
    It works fine with QuickTime 7 that allows "anything" content type. But on Snow Leopard, with QuickTime 10, we can not open file with our private extension. When we open QuickTime, our files are in grey and we can not click on it.
    What I've done is to export an UTI from my application info.plist file. This export says that my UTI with the right filename extension is conform to "public.movie". I have done it from the original admin account of the machine.
    What is strange, is that this modification has an impact on the others accounts I have created (standard or admin) but not on this original admin account.
    I mean, on the others accounts, the files with our extension are well seen as movie file and can be played with QuickTime Player. So the Uniform Type I export is well interpreted when I log with a different account.
    I do not understand what is wrong with this original account. The behavior is also the same if I am loged as root.
    I have made a repair disk permissions but it didn't change anything.
    Right now I don't know what to do in order to have this export to work for this particular account...
    Thanks in advance for your help,
    Loïc

    Use Quicktime 7 on the Snow Leopard Computers to playback this video. On the Snow Leopard computer quicktime 7 should be in the Utility folder. If not download Quicktime 7 for Snow Leopard:

    If some reason you can't download Quicktime 7 here how you can install it from the Snow Leopard installation disc:

    Scroll to the top of the page for instruction on how to install Qt 7.
    Quicktime X can't playback all video formats/codecs. It's limited to a few so use Qt 7.

  • Flash Player doesn't work for all accounts

    I am having a problem like others as described in this topic:
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/webforums/forum/messageview.cfm?forumid=44&catid=184&threadid =1262196&enterthread=y
    Namely, Flash Player works fine for my main administrative
    account, but does not work for my other accounts (I am running
    Windows XP Home Edition). As suggested in the above topic, I have
    tried uninstalling Flash (for all users) then re-installing it.
    This did not help. The above topic also suggests that my registry
    may be corrupted and referenced the following technical article for
    a solution.
    http://www.adobe.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=fb1634cb
    That article instructs you to use a Microsoft download called
    SubInACL to repair the registry. However, the article specifically
    states "Note: Do not run the Microsoft SubInACL tool on Windows XP
    Home. This tool should only be used with Windows XP Pro". So it
    will not help me since I'm running XP Home Edition.
    Is there any solution to the corrupted registry problem if
    you're running XP HomeEdition?

    I had the same problem none of that works...
    This is what I did:
    Using the adm profile, go to the windows folder, find the
    regedit icon, open it, then scroll all the way down until you find
    the shockwave files. Right click on each and the click on
    permissions, give each user persmission and do it for all the
    shockwave flash floders you see, it should be about 9.
    good luck.
    need help call me 305 228 7574, EST until 10pm.

  • How do I go back to the last version in the 9 series? I need my Norton toolbar, but it doesn't work with FF10. I tried the forcing, but that doesn't work. All my logons are stored in Norton.

    I used Norton utilities, and store all my logons and passwords int he identity safe. With Foxfire 10, my identity safe has disappeared. I tried the routine of forcing add-ons to work and it still doesn't.
