Can i turn off imessage from a pc?

i was temporarily using my son's iphone while i was waiting from my new Droid to come in.  I didn't turn off imessage before i deactivated my apple ID and now i don't always receive texts from iphone users.  i read somewhere to log back into my Apple ID and then turn off imessage before logging off again.  Changing Apple IDs from mine back to my son's ID after i got my Droid took HOURS on my son's phone.  I would like to just find a way to do it from a PC instead of on his iphone.  is this possible?

You can't do it from your PC, but Apple support can uregister your number with iMessage for your.  See http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5185.

    Have your husband text the word "stop" to 48369. This should take his number out of the iMessage system.
    Go into your settings under messaging and make sure the box to send as an SMS if iMessage is unavailable is checked.
    Hopefully this will get your messages sending/receiving to each other.

  • How can I turn off Keychain from asking for my password EVERY time I check for mail?

    how can I turn off Keychain from asking for my password EVERY time I check for mail?
    This is really driving me nuts.....
    Thanks

    Choose Apple menu > System Preferences, click Security & Privacy, and then click General. 
    Open the General pane of Security & Privacy preferences
    2.     Select “Require password...NEVER after sleep or screen saver begins.”  You can adjust the amount of delay before a password is required in the pop-up menu.
    From what I am aware, you cannot turn off the keychain.
    I hope this helps.

  • Can I turn off iMessage for one contact?

    My wife recently switched from the iPhone 4 to a Galaxy S3, and in order to be able to send her a text message, I have to turn off iMessage. Is there any way to turn it off for an individual contact instead of turning it off completely? Or can I tell my phone she no longer uses her Apple ID for imessage?

    She should switch iMessage OFF on her iPhone, change her Apple ID password, delete her profile registeration.

  • I can't turn off iMessage! I'm losing messages people send me via iMessage!

    I have an iPhone 4 with iMessage enabled.
    But now I'm using my SIM card in an HTC phone. The problem is people with iPhone still see me as being on iMessage and when they text me, the text is sent via (blue) iMessage and not (green) SMS. So now on my HTC phone I can not receive any messages from iPhone users!
    I've turned off iMessage on iPhone AND iPad. Logged out of all iCloud related services - iMessage, FaceTime, iCloud, iTunes...
    I've deleted my iPhone from my Apple ID Profile online.
    But people with iPhone still see me as on iMessage! What should I do to permanently remove my phone number from iMessage service?

    Simply reset your Apple ID password by going to iforgot.apple.com

  • Can I Turn off iMessage in a group text with multiple people with different devices? There's 1 person in the group text that doesn't use iPhone anymore and they can't see any messages that are sent unless we send as regular text individually.

    Is there a way to turn off iMessage for a group text that includes multiple people with different non-apple devices? When a message is sent, only the iPhone users can see the iMessage. Those without them cannot see the texts unless we send individual Text Messages or turn off iMessage completely.

    now I have this and it still doesn't work.

  • Can't turn off "dial from home screen"

    I want to allocate shortcut keys to apps. All of the info I've seen says that you have to turn off "dial from home screen" by clicking on the "phone" icon, then clicking on the "menu" icon, then selecting the "General options" item. Trouble is, I don't have a "General options" item - can anyone help me?

    I'm in the same boat. I miss my old bb. 9310 does not have this option....
