Can you block contacts and/or numbers from your phone?

Is there a way to block callers and /or block someone's texting?

this is a work around, but so far it works...
download a silent ring tone, import it to I Tunes and sync it to your phone.  I found one online by searching for silent ringtone
pick a number you want to block (in my case it was a telemarketer) and add them into your contacts as UNWANTED CALLER. 
set the ring tone to SILENT RING TONE, vibration notice to NONE
you can also set the text tone to none and vibration to NONE
now you can add other numbers to the same contact when they call just add to existing contact, choose UNWANTED CALLER and save it.
This does not keep them from being able to call, but your phone does not notify you when they are calling.
Good Luck!

  • How can you delete an old apple id from your phone

    Although I have a new Apple ID, the old one keeps prompting for a password.  How can I delete the old one?

    Hi clairebrisvegas,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    Your Apple ID is used for several services through your iPhone. To replace the previous Apple ID you will need to sign out of it in a few different spots and sign in with the current Apple ID (depending on what Apple ID you choose to use for each individual service). The services you may need to sign out of old Apple ID and into new one could include iCloud, Messages, FaceTime, and iTunes & App Stores. You can see what Apple ID is currently signed in and sign out of it in the following areas: Settings > iCloud, Settings > Messages, Settings > FaceTime, and Settings > iTunes & App Store. The following article is a good resource that explains this process.

  • HT201304 can you block texting to specific numbers?

    can you block texting to specific numbers under parental controls?

        Great question, jtgeor!
    You can block up to 5 numbers from call and messaging you with our free Call & Message block feature. Here is how: http://vz.to/MqEgqB
    We can place a hard block on text messages as well which will prevent all incoming and outgoing messages.
    You may also place the device in Airplane mode to avoid any charges.

  • My iPhone 5S drowned in a rainstorm. How can I retrieve contacts and text messages from iCloud backup onto my iPad mini?

    My iPhone 5S drowned in a rainstorm. How can I retrieve contacts and text messages from iCloud backup onto my iPad mini? There are some contacts on the iPad already but nowhere near all of them. I need to re-enter the contacts manually into an iPhone 4 as it does not support iOS 8.

    Let me get this straight.....You lost your phone.  You never backed it up, either to your computer or to a cloud service.
    How in the world would you expect to get data back?

    They are considered "free telephone chat line's" only long distance or regular fee's would apply.
    So are these allowed by the Skype system etc?

    Hello,
    I've made a test call to one of these #s.
    1. Yes. That statement is correct.
    2.  Yes they are allowed.
    I've had to edit your post a little as we don't allow third party sites being posted.

    I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

  • Can you access files and edit them from different computers in Creative Cloud?

    I want to understand the workflow we can have. We have three computers and would like to access and edit the same files in Creative Cloud. Can you do this? I understand I may have to purchase two licenses but will this give everyone access to the same files and able to edit and upload files.
    We do this in Dropbox now but with Creative Cloud is sounds like all I can do is share a file for them to comment on, not edit?

    Hi Olivia,
    With Creative Cloud, file editing comes in via downloading Adobe applications with a Creative Cloud membership. While you cannot edit within Creative Cloud, you can share files with your coworkers which can then be downloaded, edited in an Adobe application, and reuploaded to the Cloud.
    Be aware that although you can have two computers activated on the same Creative Cloud membership, you cannot use the same application on two computers simultaneously. A Creative Cloud membership is for one user that can be used on one or more computers.
    You may want to look into the Creative Cloud Team Ready, that targets work environments like yours. You can read more about Team Ready here.
    Hope this helped clarify your questions!

  • Can you put on songs in queue from your PC (windows) to play from another device?

    You might have stumbled upon my other topic about queue problems with my PS4, i got a response from Spotify support that didnt help much, so i tried experimenting a little. Instead of just trying to play from the ps4, i tried playing through my phone using connect. The queue-system totally messes up when trying to queue from windows, anyone else have this problem? I have actually tried with 2 laptops now. with the same result, so now i want to know what your experience is :) Can you try this out to help me? I want to know if this is ... just how it works or if its just a problem for me-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- I gave the support guy an example on how things work, you dont have to read this to answer the question above, but it might enlighten my issue a bit more? =)----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- As you can see by the description of the problem, i know how the connect feature works. And i know how to queue songs. I can queue songs from my mobile (sony xperia z3) when using the connect feature. I can queue songs on the ps4 app and it works without any problems. Ill give you an example.
    Example is that i play from my ps4, the pc and the phone are connected with the connect feature
    - I put on a song using my pc --> the spotify app on the ps4 starts playing music- I put a song in queue from my phone- I put a song in queue using my ps4 controller (at this point, the two songs i put on queue shows correctly up in the queue menu on spotify on PC)- I skip to next song - queue works correctly, the next song plays. I skip again and the third song plays, no problems, it works fine!- I now do the same, i put on the same two songs in queue, using my phone and my controller.- I put one song in queue from my pc (suddenly the previous songs i skipped also shows up (duplicates, since the songs i put on the other time are there too)- I press next song --- now the songs in queue are just skipped. They are still in queue, but they will not be played. The song beneath the queue list will be played instead
    This is just an example. I can disconnect my phone from connect and only use my PC and the queue problems are still there, so im guessing its some problem with the app or some setting on my PC.

  • How can you share Contacts and use Family Sharing?

    Still sharing 1apple ID & 1 iCloud from way back when.  Kids were little, syncing was simple... turned off their device iClouds and synced apps, playlist, shows w/ iMac via usb.  I loved having my contacts, bookmarks, notes synced via iCloud and it became VERY handy when kid1 got an iPhone (appointments, practices, friends #s w/ ease!)   We've recently added a macbook and another iPhone to the mix, we've got music issues & iPads ringing.... so a potential overall may be due?
    Now that Family Sharing is here, it's still missing features that we USE:
    * Notes (grocery list, packing lists...)
    * Contacts (each family member has a 'group' name, they add to their group and the family's master list is 'all contacts' for anyone to access incase of emergencies.... anyone keeping up w/ kids lately?!)
    * And the ever present iCloud icon is a looming feature for anyone, any age in the shared-family to be too curious...
    * CAN any of these features be added along w/ Family Sharing?
    HOW do I set up a simple family sharing system w/o interfering w/ bookmarks, personal notes, FaceTime/msg crossovers :
    share our purchases (apps, music from our iTunes/playlists, podcast),
    share our calendar
    share our contacts
    share a family notes
    msgs/facetime for each member
    mom: iphone, ipad, imac
    dad:  iphone
    kid1: iphone, macbook
    kid2: ipad
    kid3: ipad
    Thanks to anyone that has this set up and will share the method to my madness.  Didn't know where to post this, sorry about that.

    After having burned the AudioCD from iTunes Menu Advanced choose "Submit Track Names ..."
    That will put the data of your CD into CDDB.
    It may take between some hour and a few days until it is recognized on a second computer through CDDB.

  • Can you trim top and bottom black from videos?

    Hi
    I have a project where I need to make all my video clips the same height.
    Some of the clips are in widescreen, and I'd like to trim the black from the top and bottom so that I maximise the height of the footage.
    Can this be done in elements, and if not, are there any programs that you can do that in?
    Thanks for your time and help.
    Shaun

    John,
    Glad that you found it. I use it constantly, as I often animate my Titles with Keyframed Effects, and will just Copy/Paste Attributes to all. Same for Effects that are common to multiple Video (or Audio) Clips.
    One caveat: when planning on use it, do one Clip with the complete Effects line-up, then Copy. Select all other Clips that you wish to Paste Attributes to. If you have already added some Effects, beyond the Fixed Effects, you will get multiple instances of that/those Effect(s), i.e. if you have already added Color Correction to the destination Clips, an have Color Correction in your source Clip, you will likely get 2 instances of Color Correction. Plan ahead, so that you do not have to go back and Delete any duplicated Effects.
    Good luck,
    Hunt
