Blocking People from iMessage active on all Devices?

If I block someone via iMessage on my iPad, could they still text me on my iPhone connected to the same number/iCloud account?

Yes, because iMessages are routed to the Apple ID being used for iMessage. (FYI, the ID may or may not be the same as the ID you are using for iCloud. iMessage doesn't use or require an iCloud account, just an Apple ID.) If you're getting someone else's text messages, make sure you aren't both using the same ID for iMessage. If you are, one of you should go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID, sign out, then sign back in with a different ID. Note: the ID you use for iMessage does not need to be the same as the ID you use for other services such as iCloud or the iTunes store.

Block people from loging into certain domaine names

hello
to i'm looking for a way to block people from loging into certain udomain user names

computer A can only login to the users PC1, PC2, PC3,
but not benevol
meen while computer B can only login to benevol
and not pc1, pc2, pc3
i'm curently runnig win7 pro and win server2008 R2
is there a way to do this ?
any help would be welcomed

Hi glennmckenna
By default, every user in AD automatically gets added to Domain Users.
To control who is allowed to log into workstations, If you’re in a smaller AD environment, you can go to the
Account tab in Active Directory Users and
Computers, click the “Log On To…” button and specify the computers the user is allowed to use.
However, in a larger environment, you could use Group policy object for that purpose, these settings can be found in
group policy management editor-> Computer Configuration > Policies > Security Settings > Local Policies > User Rights Assignment.

How do I block people from texting me in "iMessage" / "Messages" on the iPad?

AARRGGGGHHHH!!
People are "texting" me on my iPad and I can't make it stop. HELP!!
I can't believe ... I'm absolutely dumb-founded ... that Apple provides no way to block harassing users. This is NOT related to a wireless/cellular carrier, this is on my wifi-only iPad.

You really have to wonder why the feature of blocking someone is not available. It would be simple to implement. Harrassing text messages, imessages, whatever you want to call them give an abuser a way to contact someone who does not want any contact. This can result in psychological damage, even in some cases suicide. If I am receiving unwanted messages from someone, I don't see why I can't just hit a button that says block. The message then can be diverted to a folder, and if I want to unblock them I should be allowed. There is not one reason I can imagine why I should not have this power. It's ridiculous and unfortunate that in this age of bullying and stalking, we aren't allowed this modicum of control over our privacy. So just when you think you have forgotten someone, or someone you love has finally removed an abusive person from their lives and moved on, all that person has to do is suddenly decide to text you day and night so that you cannot do anything but think about them. Why oh why is there no block messages from this person button as there is in virtually every social networking website? I am flabbergasted. And of course if you have a data plan and someone wants to send you spam, they can actually eat into your data usage against your will. I have to deny my family the ability to send me iMessages by completely disabling it because one nutcase won't leave me alone? Again, where is our control over our privacy? I'm frustrated over this issue, and after seeing what happened to Amanda Todd I don't see why it's not mandatory that this feature be added to every instant messaging platform. "Block User" I'm completely blown away now that I've researched this issue and I hope other people rally behind a change. How hard would it be for a 45kb update to iMessage with the ability to block users? Someday Apple is going to get sued when something terrible happens all because they refused to listen to reason. We need cotrol of our lives, and especially where teenagers are concerned. They need to be able to block unwanted attention from people who found a way into their personal lives. Go to youtube and look up Amanda Todd. It's tragic and Apple is going to do nothing about it. Anybody who is living through this sort of nightmare knows how insane it is that we cannot simply hit "block user". I also am dumbfounded!

4s blocking people from receiving my messages

I have had THE worst luck with apple so far. This is my second iPhone in a week! First one (iPhone4) battery life was draining by the minute... current one (iPhone4s) where do I begin? Picture messages won't send, left side of keyboard won't work, center of keyboard wont work, my phone is blocking me from sending and recieving mms messages to 1 contact. It says I added him to my block list, which I have not done.. I wouldnt even know how to go about doing that. Sprint was of no help... anyone in the same boat?

Call Sprint back. Your carrier (or your contact's carrier) is the only one that can block your messages.

How do u block someone from imessage

These girls are starting drama and i blocked them from every thing but imessage

The only way is to turn off Messages or use another email address in Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and delete/uncheck the other ones and not give that person the new email Messages address.
Bottom line there is no good way.

I need to clear space on my mac and have 2 other devices I need space on- IpHone and Ipad. I have Itunes match. If I delete the library from my computer, how can I play music from the cloud on all devices. S

I am almost out of space on my mac and Ipad. Need to clear songs off, but afraid I won't be able to listen without going to my external hard drive. I have Itunes match but don't know how they are accessed from the cloud. Thoroughly confused and frustrated. Hope someone can help.
Another question is my Iphotos are taking up tons of space and I don't know if they are in cloud or best way to back up. Any thoughts?

If you have iTunes Match, and your music is in your Match library, you can access it from iCloud on all your devices, provided they are signed into your iTunes Match account. Make sure you keep a backup of your music somewhere though as the match process isnt' perfect and you may find that some of your iTunes Match music isn't exactly the same as the original (see https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4112).
The best way to back up your photos is to import them to your computer as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083. If you are out of room on your Mac, get an inexpensive external drive to save your photos on.

Re: safari 6.0 flash problem (blocked plug in)
Jul 26, 2012 7:39 AM (in response to defconnect5)
I have a new MacBook Pro and I followed these instructions, downlonading and installing the new Flash plugin. But when I looked in "/Library/Internet Plugins" there was no folder called "Disabled Plugins".
However, I did see two versions of Flash:
_Flash Player.plugin with old date
Flash Player.plugin with todays date
I deleted _Flash Player.plugin and this fixed the problem.

IMessage not synching between devices

Ok sorry if this has been asked and answered already but I've had a good look around and haven't been able to solve this problem yet.
I have an ipad1 and an iPhone 3GS both with ios5. I use the iPad most of all and when I send iMessages to my friends. That conversation does not appear on the iPhone. I thought it was supposed to so if you started a conversation on the iPad and left home you could continue it on your phone.
My friend receives the full conversation on his iPad and iPhone.
We've checked and double checked the settings and I'm 99% sure they are correct
Anybody help me
THANKS
MIKE

Thanks for the reply paulcb :)
I managed to sort it by turning iMessage off on all devices and then turning it back on starting with my phone. Once you do that it starts to activate them all.
I then soft resetted my phone and ipad and now all 3 devices are working in harmony once again.

HI, My Macbook Air was stolen this week from my checked baggage.
I have the box with all the information SN etc.. Is there a way to disable this device? Block it from my Yahoo email? Locate it? Any ideas?

If you activated "Find My Mac" in iCloud before the loss, maybe. Otherwise no.

HT201304 It would be tremendously helpful to be able to access, set restrictions, and make changes from the parents device to all devices under the same iTunes account, so that I could make changes to my kids devices without physical access.

Please help!
It would be tremendously helpful to be able to access, set restrictions, and make changes from the parents device, to all devices under the same iTunes account, so that I could make changes to my kids devices without physical access.
I understand that I can set up a different Apple ID for the kids devices, or take physical control of the device and make the changes myself. However, my teenage son is technically savvy enough to have a job in Silicon Valley, as are most young people these days. However, in order to access his devices the current way, I first have to bypass the four digit pass code. This starts a fight of why I need in the device and continues to escalate. The argument that I am the parent will gain access but the fight is simply exhausting, and quite frankly shouldn't have to happen at all. He is not yet an adult, he did not pay for his iPad or iPhone and I, as a parent, should have not only have the right to change options at will, and from anywhere, but look at history or current activity when I feel like it.
I currently have the settings where app and in-app purchases require my password to be put in, and he must come to me to type it in, but I need more control and would like, and should be able to access any of our six devices and make individual changes simply by logging in to my account, with my password.
If I can see all my devices on the "Lost My iPhone" app, this technology should be easy to make happen.
C'mon parents! I have a pretty good kid, given all things that they can get into, but I am not stupid. For everything I see has been done, there is much more I haven't seen. I want my children to be kept safe and be able to know what they are looking at or listening to. We parents are the only ones who know our beliefs and what our kids can handle and when.
Thanks for any support or information that I may be missing in order to fulfill my request.

There are mobile device management solutions that can do this, including in Apple's OS X Server system, but most parents generally find that setting this up is more work than it's worth. If you're interested, though, there are a couple that at least purport to be free (I don't know if there are any hidden "gotchas"):
http://www.unwireddevicelink.com/features/
https://meraki.cisco.com/products/systems-manager
and Apple's system:
http://www.apple.com/osx/server/features/#profile-manager
I don't think any, however, allow you to see current activity or browser history. iOS doesn't expose those to access from MDM solutions, to the best of my knowledge.

My imessage wont activate and work, and i dont receive messages from people useing imessage? how do i get imessage to work?

My imessage wont activate and work, and i dont receive messages from people useing imessage? how do i get imessage to work?

I recently moved back to Australia for school from Canada and signed up for the new iphone 6 plus. After using icloud to save and backup from my previous iphone 4s, all of the apps eventually worked....except for whatsapp. After looking through my phone and numerous chat forums, it appears that my imessage and facetime are stuck in, "waiting for activation".....is anyone else having problems with this?
I am curious as I am unable to receive the whatsapp code to re-activate my application. This brings me to my second question, is this an iphone/apple problem or a whatsapp third party problem?
I've had friends send imessages to me and they appear to coming through. I have already rebooted and restarted my phone numerous time. A strong connection to wifi and data stream have all come in loud and clear.
I have tried all of the directions that were posted and still have no whatsapp and imessage still inconsistent.
Thank you

There probably is, but it requires that you be able to use punctuation and write in sentences so that we can understand exactly what you want.
You can block others from using your Apple ID by changing your password. There is no way to erase what was already downloaded on to someone else's device, for obvious reasons,
