Can numbers be blocked from receiving text messages and calls?

can phone numbers be blocked from receiving text messages and/or calls on IPhone?

You have to check with your carrier. I know Verizon you can log in and block calls.
You can not selectively do this on the phone.

  • Why can't i send or receive text messages to some users from my iPad while there is no problem texting them from my iPhone?

    Why can't I send or receive text messages to some users from my iPad mini while there is no problem texting them from my iPhone?

    With the Apple iMessage app, You can only Message with other iOS users - iPads, iPod Touch, iPhone users and Macs running Mountain Lion or higher. With your iPhone, you can send standard SMS text messages to any phone, including Android phones.
    The iPad cannot send SMS messages or receive them either.

    Why can't I send or receive text messages on my I pad.

    1. Messages on the iPad can only be sent to other iDevices
    2. They must also be registered with iMessage
    Note: The two above conditions must be met.

    Another thing you can try is to ensure that the setting for ( send as sms if imessage unavailable ) is turned on, this can be found in Settings : Messages. If this doesnt work you can also try changing the contact details to read mobile instead of iphone.
    That setting is not relevant to sending SMS messages to non-iPhones. It only affects what happens when an iMessage won't go through to an iOS device. And, what the phone number is labeled has no effect on anything. You could create a custom label "Rutabaga" and the SMS would still go through if the account was properly provisioned. Those labels are for human brain convenience only.

  • My iphone has locked up displaying a received text message and also a radio station app.  I can't get it to restart by pushing and holding the on/off button.  Any suggestions to try?

    Hold the home button and the Sleep/Wake button ignoring the slide to power off message until the phone turns off then you can repower it by pressing and holding the sleep/wake button for a few seconds until the apple logo appears.

  • Can't access contacts, not receiving texts, not all calls come through....

    I downloaded the required update to my Motorola Droid Bionic this morning.   Ever since I can't get into my contacts.  For over 8 hours when I click  on the contacts icon, I see a message:  "Contact list is being  updated."  I am not receiving text messages and only occasionally do I  receive incoming phone calls.  I can call out however.  Most of my  emails aren't coming through either.  I've tried turning off and  removing the battery.  Any suggestions?  Thanks.

    Not sure why you started a duplicate thread to this one:

    At any rate ... you might try a system cache clear:
    Power down phone
    Hold volume up/down & power simultaneously until you see the Boot Mode Selection Menu
    Use volume down to navigate to 'Recovery', use volume up to select
    Should see screen with triangle and exclamation point next to an Android
    Press volume up/down simultaneously to go into system recovery
    Use volume rocker to navigate to 'wipe cache' and use power button to select
    Once finished, use volume rocker to navigate to 'reboot system now' and use power button to select

    My iPad 2 won't receive text messages and is not sharing any data with my iPhone 4. Please help!

    The iPad receives Text Messages through Apple's iMessage feature. Make sure this is turned on on your phone. Also, text messages received at your phone number are not shared with the iPad. Make sure that iMessage texts are being sent to your EMAIL ADDRESS

  • How do I stop my macbook from receiving text messages from my iPhone?

    After I updated my macbook to Yosemite, I started receiving text messages on it from my iPhone.  I want to turn this off, how do I do this?

    Hi,
    Temporary.
    You could Disable the account on the Mac.
    You can untick the Receive At option for the iPhone Number as "Alias".
    This will cut the number rather stop them completely.
    More permanent.
    Sign Out button on the Mac version.
    Messages will work but the iMessage account will not have an ID to log in with (it will show but will need the password. you change the ID but entering a new one.
    Permanent.
    Remove the Apple ID for the Settings for the iPhone version.
    iOS 8.1 and Yosemite will also allow or can be set up for Text Forwarding as it is called in the settings on the iPhone.
    Effectively the two become paired  (needs a code number that appears on one to be entered on the other device) rather than just "happening".
    This does allow SMS Messages to also be synced between the two.
    I am not sure you are talking about this though.
    If we have missed what you are after you will have to give more details.
