Can I tell if someone blocked my number?

Hi.  New to the forums here, just signed up today.
I'm wondering if there's a way to tell if someone has blocked me from texting or calling them?  We're both Verizon customers but for the past two days my messages to him are being sent (they have the arrow next to the message) but it doesn't look like they've been received by him.  And when I call, it goes straight to his voicemail.
At first I thought he just has his phone shut off, but it's very unlike him to have it off for this long.  Is it possible that he's blocked my number?

Maybe the phone is lost?  Like Ann said, if your number was blocked, you would not get Voicemail, you would get a message that the call did not go through due to restrictions or something like that.  It sounds like the phone is off,  whether due to a dead battery, or just shut off for whatever reason.

    Nobody can log in to your iCloud account unless you gave them your password. There is no other way.
    If you shared your password with someone (not a good idea) and no longer want them to have access to your account, change the password and don't share it again.

    can you tell is someone has downloaded dodgy programs to maybe spy on you?

    you can effectively change your system password if you think this is happening. if you change it, they shouldn't have access to your computer however you never know.
    some things that will give it away are deliberate mouse movements when you're not using the computer, the camera on your mbp to flash a green light meaning it's taking a picture or applications like iTeleport connect and other VNC type clients running in activity monitor.
    There is an app called "hidden" that will trace your information (it's used to recover a stolen computer) but it's tell tail sign would be the camera turning on and off unexpectedly.

  • HT3529 how can you tell that someone read your text message?

    How can I tell if someone has read my text message?

    Text messages, i.e. SMS or MMS, do not have a "return receipt" feature. iMessages, however, do. If you're sending via the Messages app, your friends need to turn on the "Send Read Receipts" option in the Messages settings on their iOS devices.

  • Can you tell if someone has tracked your device?

    Can you tell if someone has tracked your device?

    Nobody can track your device without your AppleID and password. If someone else knows your password, they could have used Find my iPhone to track your device. Change your password if you suspect this to be the case.

  • Can you tell if someone connected into my blackberry and backed up all your data??

    I am suspicious that someone at work somehow took all my emails and contacts off of my phone.  I know a number of coworkers who all use blackberry desktop software.
    Is there a way I can tell if someone plugged my blackberry into their computer and somehow backed up all my information onto their computer?  Thanks
    -Kevin

    Have you had the BlackBerry device out of your hands, out of your control, for 10-15 minutes?
    Unless you inspect their PC for the backup file, no.
    The only other possibility is examining your own device event log, I just did a backup, examined mine and I can't see anything that indicates a backup was made.
    I gotta ask, why do you suspect this?

  • Okay how can I tell if someone has installed spyware on my phone or if they have accessed your phone records or history from another location

    I think someone has been going thru my phone or accessing my information from a different location other than in my phone itself is there anyway to tell if someone has installed spyware or accessed any of my information on my phone or from another location or from the phone itself

    The only way someone can install spyware on your iPhone is by hacking/jailbreaking the iPhone followed by installing the spyware from an unofficial source other than from the iTunes Store. This would require having physical access with the iPhone and a computer. Has someone had access to your iPhone with a computer without your knowledge?
    Someone could have access to your iMessages and iCloud photostream with another iOS device and with a Mac that supports iMessage (a PC could have access to your iCloud Photo Stream, not iMessages) if they know your iCloud account password and/or Apple ID password if your iCloud account and Apple ID are different.
    If someone has had access to your iPhone with a computer without your knowledge, you can always restore the iPhone with iTunes as a new iPhone or not from the iPhone's backup. If you think someone has access to your iCloud account, you can change the password for the account along with your security questions and answers.

    To quote from my previous post in this thread:
    " if you don't jailbreak your phone, there is no danger of software that can "spy" on you being loaded on to your phone or in any other way being used to spy on you.
    Yes, password protect your phone. Yes, don't let people you don't trust have access to it."

  • Can I tell if someone is using my Find my iPhone?

    Today at 2:08 AM I saw the GPS indicator on my phone.
    I went to check and got this (see picture) the Find My iPhone had the purple icon which means: a purple location services icon will appear next to an item that has recently used your location
    My question is who? it was not me. Is there any way to find out who logged in or from where?

    No, you really don't understand how Find my iPhone works. In order for Find my iPhone to know where you are it must use Location Services. If it didn't, when you went to locate your iPhone using another device with the app or by logging in to https://icloud.com/find it would have no idea where your phone was. So it periodically checks your location. That way it can also tell you where your phone WAS, 10 minutes ago, for example, even it is now out of range.
    HOWEVER, if you shared your Apple ID you made a big mistake. You should NEVER give your Apple ID and password to anyone else for any reason. Even someone you know and trust. As you did you should change your Apple ID password, verify that your security questions have not been changed. And probably add 2 factor authentication to your account. And NEVER share any password with anyone again.
    I have been in the computer field for 40 years. I've had passwords of various kinds almost since the beginning. And I have never told anyone any of my passwords. Even when my IT department needs access to my computer, I enter the password for them. And they understand and approve. After all, they don't want the responsibility if my account was ever compromised.
