Are callers notifies when they are being blocked?

If you select 'block this caller', will they be notified when trying to call or text that they could not be completed?

No.
Here's what it sounds like on their end:

When I am playing scrabble I WANT to be able to go to Dictionary and two letter words. These are being blocked. How do I get them to stop blocking?????

AGAIN! When I am playing scrabble I want to be able to go to Dictionary and Two Letter words when I am playing the game - these are being blocked much to my aggravation! How do I stop the blocking?

Hmm, what site is this game on?
Is the Dictionary part of the same page, or a separate page/add-on in Firefox, or a completely separate program?

Incoming calls are being blocked

Some of my incoming calls are being blocked and when I try to answer them they go to voicemail. I can't seem to find a reason for this and I have not found a way to stop this from happening. Sorry I have a iPhone4 with the latest software and firmware.
Thank you
Regards

Either the tower you are connected to has no channels available, the MTSO it connects to is overloaded, or you have 3G turned off or it isn't available where you are located. While 3G supports simultaneous voice and data EDGE does not, and data takes precedence. So if you are using data at the time someone calls you the call will be diverted to voicemail.

Messages to Verizon recipients are being blocked

Messages to Verizon recipients are being blocked by the anti-spam system. I submitted whitelist requests several times, but just get automated messages in return saying the IP is dynamically assigned. It's not. No spam is going out from the system, and SPF, PTR records are correct. We are not on any of the blacklists (checked with all known RBLs) and have a very good reputation on senderbase.org.
Can someone please help and assign an agent to help us in this matter?
We have many nonprofit organizations and several doctors who can't reach their visitors.
I personally have a Verizon account and all my emails to Verizon are getting blocked when I sent them out using our mail server.
The mail server in question is: {edited for privacy}
Blocked IP address: {edited for privacy}
Any help appreciated.
Solved!

Ports are being block (not responding)

Ports are being block (not responding), port forwarding is configured on the router and firewall is turned off on the server (osx 10.8). Am I missing anything?
Server has a static IP which I forwarded to ports to
I'm setting up VPN server and need ports 500, 1701, 1723, 4500 open
Thanks

Depending on the exact set-up of the network, L2TP requires UDP ports 500, 1701 and 4500 and the IP-ESP protocol, which is IP protocol 50; ESP.
Other than ESP (which is protocol 50 and not port 50), these are UDP ports, and not TCP.
TCP 1723 is used for PPTP. Not L2TP.
It is common for L2TP passthrough to fail when more than one connection is active.
As compared with L2TP, PPTP is usually easier to get going around NAT. Though conversely, L2TP is rather more secure than PPTP.
Check your Mac OS X Server firewall settings, too. If you have some outboard network device providing a NAT gateway, try dropping the server firewall.
Use of an external firewall-gateway with an embedded VPN server is something I've variously recommended, too. (I find that VPN NAT passthrough is something best avoided, as VPNs and NAT are operating at crossed purposes. VPNs seek to keep connection end-points known, while NAT tries to hide those connection end-points. Doing the VPN processing on the Internet side of the NAT is just... well, easier.)
Also ensure that your ISP is not blocking VPN connections. While you might be on static IP, confirm the ports are open. Trust, but verify. Get yourself a UDP port scanner, and have a look.
If it's permissible within your ISP service tier (and depending on what protocols you're testing), probe the specific target ports using telnet or the openssl s_client command and (particularly for this case) the nc (netcat) tools, and see if the ports allow access. nc can run port probes on UDP, which is the key piece here given telnet and s_client target TCP and TCP SSL connections. Probably something like the nc -zu w.x.y.z udp-port command.

My call from Skype to landline phones are being blocked

I live overseas and the easiest way to make calls to the US is by using Skype. Recently, however, my Skype calls are being blocked as unsolicited calls by landlines. Of course, the instructions given by the recorded message, do not work (*82 followed by the number). How can I start getting my calls to go through to those who block unsolicited calls? -M

I am facing the same problem...When dialing from Windows PC, there is not even a ringing tone. But from Android phones, it gives rining tone only for me and the receiving side actually doesn't receive call itself. I am living in Dubai..Please suggest a soultion for us.

Log-in pages are being blocked.

<blockquote>Locking duplicate thread. 
Please continue here: [[/questions/928639]]</blockquote>
All the log-in pages to my regularly visited websites are being blocked. Saved sites that have stored log-in info or sites where I have accounts that I need to sign-in to access all get the same error - "This Connection is Untrusted. You have asked Firefox to connect securely to (insert website url here), but we can't confirm that your connection is secure. Blah, blah, blah."
Anyone know what's causing this and how to fix it?? I have decent anti-virus software and I did a complete scan, came up clean.

*Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
*Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
*Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions"
*Check the "Tools > Page Info > Media" tab for blocked images (scroll through all the images with the cursor Down key).
If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
There are also extensions (Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) and security software (firewall, anti-virus) that can block images.

The links in my emails are being blocked. How can I fix this problem?

The links in my emails are being blocked!

It could be that the your work router/network is blocking those sites. Some work networks do block some sites.
You can also try another browser like the Chrome browser available from the App store.

Email messages I want to receive are being blocked as spam

Email messages I want to receive are being blocked as spam. What can I do to rectify this?

Spam is related to email / webmail. If that is your problem ...
Firefox doesn't do email, it's strictly a web browser.
If you are using Firefox to access your mail, you are using "web-mail". You need to seek support from your service provider or a forum for that service.
If your problem is with Mozilla Thunderbird, let us know and we can move this thread to the Thunderbird queue. This question currently is in the Firefox queue for answers.

HT4061 What is the correct name of the tones that my callers hear when they call me, and how do I obtain tones?

What is the correct name of the tones my callers hear when they call me and how do I obtain those tones?

Hi sonyadenice,
Those are called Ringback Tones by AT&T. Other carriers may use a different name for them. If your carrier is AT&T, here is a link with FAQs about their Ringback Tones. If you carrier is not AT&T, then contact them to find out what is available.
Here is the AT&T link:

Google and all of its related services are not showing as a secure and pictures are being blocked.

I was forced to add manual exception to even use Google search AND Google email but pictures are still being blocked in Google search. The first 12 pictures will show but the rest only reflect a broken square in the top left corner of where the image preview should be. When I click on the blanks- it shows the picture but I can't work efficiently that way. How do I remove the block on images until the issue can be corrected in another update?
Google Chrome was doing the same thing (blocking images from trusted MAJOR sites like Facebook and Twitter but considering its own material secure). Chrome did not allow a user to control if the images could show and I switched to Firefox as a result. Please fix this. Thanks!

All I had to do was update my clock time and it fixed the issue. My clock was showing December 6, 2014 as the date. Sorry. You can consider this resolved, Thank you!

My calls are being blocked from calling our office.

I haven't been able to make calls to any of our office (various locations) phone numbers using my AT&T cell phone for the last 3 days. My phone works fine otherwise - I can call everywhere else. Why are the calls being blocked? The office uses Integra Telecom. Apparently NO AT&T cell phone calls are going through. There is no problem with any other carriers, just AT&T.

Hello @susankip
I’m sorry you’re not able to dial out to your office.
It sounds like there is definitely a routing or dialing pattern issue going on.
To better assist with this, please contact us as soon as possible.
You are welcome to use our live chat option as well.
Thank you,

What does the caller hear when they call a "Blocked Number"?

Just curious to find out what the caller hears when they try to call me when I have blocked their number. TWC was calling non-stop to try to get me to add new services. Thanks.

Callers you have blocked will hear "Welcome to Verizon Wireless. The number you were trying to reach has calling restrictions which has prevented the completion of your call."
People attempting to text to your number will get a notification that delivery failed.

Mail Notifications from Runtimedna Forums being blocked

I was receiving email notifications for Forum Threads I subscribed to at Runtimedna.com. Then, I upgraded to Yosemite from OS 10.9.5. I no longer get notifications. I sent a message to the Forum Administrator. Here is the response I got (below). I don't know how to solve this. What can I do?
"Hi. This is the qmail-send program at 3865566.pubip.peer1.net.
I'm afraid I wasn't able to deliver your message to the following addresses.
This is a permanent error; I've given up. Sorry it didn't work out.

It looks like anything from us is probably being blocked. You need to talk to your ISP provider.
Admin- Runtimedna

Just to correct a couple of points above: It's called "AT&T Connected." The supposedly tech-support expert person did start off by saying I had a virus. I spent yesterday scanning my entire drive. He said the virus was in Safari and Runtimedna.com was spamming the browser and redirecting me each time I tried to type in a site's name, redirecting to its own site, Runtimedna.com. I told him that was not the problem. Then, he started in about "AT&T Connected," and wanted me to sign up for that. We're already paying $30 per month for the ISP service, but adding the "Connected" part to it would bring it up to $45 per month. He gave me no further help. He wanted me to sign up right away. Then, after I said I would have to talk this over with someone else in the house, he left me his name and a 1-866 number so that I could call him back and sign up.
Previously, before talking with him, I had talked to a woman representative about this problem, and that's after I got beyond the computer who answers and directs people to info on the AT&T web site. The woman said she would pass the situation on, took my phone number and other information, and said that a tech-support expert would call me.

How do I dis-able the pop-up blocker when the box is not checked and yet, pop ups are being blocked?

I want to totally disable Mozilla's pop-up blocker. I went to the tools/options page and found that the pop up blocker box is not checked but it is still blocking pop-ups. I see that others are having the same problem. How do we fix it, or, is this a programming issue and if so, is Firefox fixing it? It is quite annoying.

Could you click the Exceptions button to the right of "Block pop-up windows" and make sure none of those sites is specifically blocked?
If you have unchecked the box and there is no site-specific setting, that usually does it...
Is it possible that an add-on is doing the blocking? A standard diagnostic to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings) is to try Firefox's Safe Mode.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [[Backing up your information]]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, restart Firefox in Firefox's Safe Mode ([[Safe Mode]]) using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode."
Check the Options dialog > Content to make sure the pop-up blocker is turned off.
If popups now work correctly, this points to one of your extensions as the most likely culprit. If you restart in normal mode, you can try disabling (or adjusting the options of) any that seem possibly popup-related (e.g., security related) here:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Extensions category
Any change?
