Firewall Settings (text block)

It seems that the bbc 9300 firewall doesn't have the option to turn off SMS & MMS as individual settings like other BB devices.
They are both under the same category of TEXT MESSAGE
OPTIONS include:
"text messages"
"PIN"
"personal email"
"enterprise email"
Is there anyway to contact BB so they can have it  split in the next system upgrade?

Actually, an MMS message is nothing more than an SMS message (with data attached).
In other words, attaching a data file (picture or video) to an SMS is what makes it an MMS message, but it really is nothing more than an SMS message.

    On previous iPhones you could go to settings and block the the actual text message from pooping up. Only the sender would show up. On the i4gs the sender and message show up. This is a major flaw as far as privacy. There are no options with in settings to stop this from happening. PLEASE TELL ME IM WRONG ???

    YOU ARE WRONG.

  • How do I change my firewall settings to allow Spotify?

    I get a message pop up that says.... A firewall may be blocking Spotify. Please update your firewall to allow Spotify (error 101)
    Please help I am so terrible with anything other then the basics.
    I found my firewall settings but I could only figure out how to turn them on and off. This did not help.
    I need it explained to me in the most simpilist of ways.
    Thank you

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, they may not work as described.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It won’t solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    Third-party system modifications are a common cause of usability problems. By a “system modification,” I mean software that affects the operation of other software — potentially for the worse. The following procedure will help identify which such modifications you've installed. Don’t be alarmed by the complexity of these instructions — they’re easy to carry out and won’t change anything on your Mac. 
    These steps are to be taken while booted in “normal” mode, not in safe mode. If you’re now running in safe mode, reboot as usual before continuing. 
    Below are instructions to enter some UNIX shell commands. The commands are harmless, but they must be entered exactly as given in order to work. If you have doubts about the safety of the procedure suggested here, search this site for other discussions in which it’s been followed without any report of ill effects. 
    Some of the commands will line-wrap or scroll in your browser, but each one is really just a single line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, and you can then copy it. The headings “Step 1” and so on are not part of the commands. 
    Note: If you have more than one user account, Step 2 must be taken as an administrator. Ordinarily that would be the user created automatically when you booted the system for the first time. The other steps should be taken as the user who has the problem, if different. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this paragraph doesn’t apply. 
    Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways: 
    ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) 
    ☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens. 
    ☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid. 
    When you launch Terminal, a text window will open with a line already in it, ending either in a dollar sign (“$”) or a percent sign (“%”). If you get the percent sign, enter “sh” and press return. You should then get a new line ending in a dollar sign. 
    Step 1 
    Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it:
    kextstat -kl | awk '!/com\.apple/{printf "%s %s\n", $6, $7}' | open -ef 
    Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Then click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste (command-V). A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. If the command produced no output, the window will be empty. Post the contents of the TextEdit window (not the Terminal window), if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. You can then close the TextEdit window. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that. No typing is involved in this step.
    Step 2 
    Repeat with this line:
    { sudo launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.(apple|openssh|vix\.cron)|org\.(amav|apac|cups|isc|ntp|postf|x)/{print $3}'; echo; sudo defaults read com.apple.loginwindow LoginHook; echo; sudo crontab -l; } 2> /dev/null | open -ef 
    This time you'll be prompted for your login password, which you do have to type. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. Type it carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. Heed that warning, but don't post it. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. 
    Note: If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before taking this step. If that’s not possible, skip to the next step. 
    Step 3
    { launchctl list | sed 1d | awk '!/0x|com\.apple|org\.(x|openbsd)/{print $3}'; echo; crontab -l 2> /dev/null; } | open -ef 
    Step 4
    ls -A /e*/{cr,la,mach}* {,/}Lib*/{Ad,Compon,Ex,Fram,In,Keyb,La,Mail/Bu,P*P,Priv,Qu,Scripti,Servi,Spo,Sta}* L*/Fonts .la* 2> /dev/null | open -ef  
    Important: If you formerly synchronized with a MobileMe account, your me.com email address may appear in the output of the above command. If so, anonymize it before posting. 
    Step 5
    osascript -e 'tell application "System Events" to get name of login items' | open -ef 
    Remember, steps 1-5 are all copy-and-paste — no typing, except your password. Also remember to post the output. 
    You can then quit Terminal.

  • Setting Firewall settings

    This topic originally started in another thread, but I thought it would be a good idea to make it its own topic (just in case anyone else is wondering how to do this).
    So I went to System Preferences> Sharing> Firewall. It says that it's currently turned off. Then below that there's a list of ports to allow access through the firewall. My question is: what the heck are all of those default ports listed there?? I don't know which one's to allow and which one's to block. Any ideas?
    Also in the Advanced settings, what is UDP traffic? Should I block it? Also, when I turn on the firewall, will that block my internet access? Will I have to enter proxy settings for my internet connection?

    UDP is a type of IP (Internet Protocol) port. Many Apple services use UDP. See this article for more on this subject.
    Which, if any, ports you allow open depends upon how you use your Mac. You can chose to allow access to none of the ports listed, if you wish. If you hold the cursor over each port selection, a text box will open explaining the purpose of each. Enabling the Firewall does not, generally speaking, disable Internet access. It may prevent access to certain websites, and require that you confirgure your firewall to allow access to the website. In most cases, you need not enter proxy settings for your Internet connection, but this can depend upon your ISP.

  • How do I remove "Allow all connections" for Pando in my firewall settings?

    In System Information under Firewall Settings - Applications, I see the following: com.pando.pando: Allow all connections. However, when I go to System Preferences and look at the firewall options, this is not listed, nor can I find any trace of Pando anywhere else on my computer. Is this hidden somewhere, and how can I get rid of it?

    pirihi,
    open Safari’s Preferences, and select its Privacy tab. For the “Block cookies and other website data” set of radio buttons, select “Never”.

  • It's not letting me change the firewall settings.

    I have a odd problem. It's not letting me change my firewall settings. The settings are locked by default, when I click on the little lock image in the bottom it does not prompt me for the password, it says "authenticating" for about 2 seconds, and then the "Click the lock to make changed" text appears again. I don't know what to do...

    I only have one account and I don't know how I could log into it more than once at the same time...
    My signature is not correct... I have the latest 10.6.1.
    Would it be possible to change the firewall settings in terminal?

  • Firewall Port 3689 blocks sync?

    Hi there,
    I have an apple TV and an iMac and when i want to sync them i usually get the error message "sync not possible...check if a firewall blocks port 3869" (or so, message comes of course in my native language german).
    However, i dont have a firewall, the firewall is not activated in system settings and when i change something in the apple TV s<nc options and try again it will sync
    any ideas?
    same problem with airport AND ethernet
    thanks alex

    I was having the same problem ...
    Sync from iTunes (MAC G5 / OS X 1.5.2) to Apple TV (V 2.0.2) fails with "Apple TV is not responding.
    And the suggestion to check the FIREWALL settings on the computer (running iTunes) for PORT 3689.
    I found that I could resolve the issue by using the "SECURITY TOOL" of "Systems Preferences" and choosing the "FIREWALL" tab.
    (1) Choose the mode of operation "Set access for specific services and applications"... then
    (2) use "+" tool to add an entry for the iTunes application (Allow incoming connections) ... then
    (3) when you select the "+" tool, a dialog will open to allow you to navigate to application location, select iTunes, and a new rule entry will be created in your FIREWALL.
    (4) Restart iTunes ... and you should be able to SYNC from iTunes to Apple TV with the FIREWALL ON.
    In the past, for most applications, Apple has usually added the required application access rule to the FIREWALL. Apparently there has been a revision in this practice.

  • New Email Settings and Westell Firewall Settings: May need adjustment to work

    I have a Westell 7500 wireless router at work.
    Old A90 modem and linksys wireless router at home.
    Made the email server setting changes at home on a desktop, laptop and two iPhones.  All worked fine.
    Took iPhone and laptop to work. Verizon email wound not work on either.  Outlook 2010 reported send/receive failure.
    Tried to setup Office desktop with new email server settings: could not do it: the test email would fail every time.
    After hours of research and frustration, EUREKA!
    The firewall settings on the Westell 7500 were set too high and blocking the ports that Verizon now wants to use for mail.
    Changed the firewall setting on the Westell router to "Minimum", clicked Apply and everything immediately worked.  The iPhone, the laptop and now I can make the changes to the desktop and it works with the new settings.
    So, yes, the router that Verizon supplied, using its recommended settings (Medium for firewall) blocks the ports that Verizon says we must now use for email.
    (Note that an alternative solution may be port forwarding the new port values - I did not try this.)

    Does anyone know if Verizon supplies the actual port setting changes needed on the Westell modems in order to make their new email port requirement changes work???
    I mean, they can't be serious with the whole "just change your firewall security to Low!"  instructions, can they...?
    I can't imagine a real internet company whose only suggestions for implementing server changes they've made are  "lower your security".
    Surely after all this time, they must have a page posted on their site somewhere that has complete instructions for the Westell firewalls which allow us to continue to use Verizon SMTP servers without lowering our firewall security across the board.....especially since their own rationale for making these changes is stated as being to increase security!
    If anyone finds a link to those instructions, please post it.

  • RV042G Firewall Settings

    I purchased a RV042G yesterday and why is it that the content filter under firewall settings blocks some websites that I specifically add, but others that I specifically are not block even though the website is specificed in the forbidden domains list? Example it blocks www.facebook.com but it permits https://myspace.com/ even though its in the forbidden list.

    Hi Tim, thank you for using our forum, my name is Luis I am part of the Small business Support community. Here I found other forum explaining why is not possible to block HTTPS, basically the router is not able to block the access to the web pages that has this port.

  • Unable to reach Adobe servers, Please check firewall settings and try again

    I have been a creative cloud customer since it started and I've never experienced such buggy software as the app manager. The customer experience is just shocking and I wish Adobe would just offer direct downloads for the software we need rather than use the app manager.
    I'm currently trying to install the latest versions of the programs but the app manager keeps showing "Unable to reach Adobe servers, Please check firewall settings and try again in a few minutes".
    I do not have any firewalls on my network.
    I've uninstalled all previous versions of the applications.
    The app manager will download a few % and then the message appears again. I click retry and it downloads another few % before showing the message again. I keep doing this until the program is fully downloaded and installed which take hours. Because I am able to eventually download the app, the error should be anything to do with my setup or internet connection as I've never had this issue before when installing adobe products.
    Is there a way we can bypass the app manager and install the programs directly? This is getting very annoying and I just need my apps to install without wasting days clicking the retry button.

    I'm having the exact same problem. Photoshop is stuck at 0%.
    Have the links for direct download changed? When I went to  http://prodesigntools.com/adobe-cc-direct-download-links.htmland then scrolled down the page to:
    Photoshop CC 2014 (64-bit)
    740 MB
    File 2
    801 MB
    File 1
    and then clicked on File 1 and File 2, I reached a page that says "You don't have permission to access "http://trials3.adobe.com/AdobeProducts/PHSP/15/win64/Photoshop_15_LS20_win64.7z?" on this server."

  • Problem with copying and pasting text blocks in Fireworks CS5

    Until recently when I copied and pasted a text block in Fireworks CS5, the block would retain all formatting applied to the copied text block, font, size, color, etc. Now, the pasted block reverts to some default setting. Oddly, if I copy multiple text blocks, the formatting is retained as expected, but not if I copy a single text block. I cannot find a preference that affects this, and I cannot figure out what might have changed. The current behaviour is definitely not desired, and is dramatically affecting my efficiency. Anyone experienced something similar or have any ideas how to correct this? Thanks.

    Sure, thanks for replying so quickly. My workflow is simple. My problem is limited to copying and pasting within Fireworks. I typically select an entire block with the main selection arrow but I sometimes use this one too depending on the context. I usually just use the keyboard CTRL-C then CTRL-V to paste. Previously (and I have been using FW for years, it's always been the same) it would paste an identical text block directly over the top of the copied one, and it looked exactly the same, same font, same color, etc. Now, it pastes a new block in the center of the document and all the formatting has reverted to what I guess is the default, in this case Myriad Pro 12pt. The behavior is the same no matter which arrow I use to select the text block. I tried Edit>Copy and Edit>Paste, the effect was the same. The Duplicate function seems to work as desired, but I had never noticed or tried that command before reading your post. Using the keyboard to copy/paste is such an ingrained habit I'd much prefer to continue using it as I always have instead of trying to retrain myself. (I'm old, retraining is hard!)
    (Selected block)
    (pasted block)
    Most often I copy and paste directly on the canvas, but occasionally will do it within the layers panel. Both now have the same undesired effect. I also tried creating a new document to see if it was a corruption in my current file, but the issue persisted to the new document as well.
    Thanks.

  • How do I use page numbering and a text block in a footer in Word with the Report Generation Toolkit?

    I am creating a Word document with the Report Generation Toolkit, and LabVIEW 8.2.1. In the report I am using a template that has page numbering enabled in the center. When I try to add a text block to the left side footer, it eliminates the page numbering and adds my text on the left side. I found "Set Report Footer Text" and "Word Set Page Numbering" vi's that may be the clue to this. When I use these two vi's I either get Page 1 of 456789-001 on the left side, or if I reverse the order I get only 456789-001(text) in the left side with nothing in the center. What I would like to achieve is 456789-001(text) on the left footer, and Page 1 of 2 in the center. Is this possible and if it is, then how can I do it?

    Hi SciManStev,
    I have attached a vi where you can see how they can be made to work together. You have to design it such that one follows the other. If you don't design it that way, it results in a race condition and only one of them get executed.
    Good Luck!

  • How do I add multiple text block records from text file?

    The data manager documentation (page 151) for MDM 5.5 SP3 indicates that one or more new text blocks can be added to the Text Blocks object table from files. It is noted that the files must be plain text files.
    I use notepad and create a text file with two lines as follows:
    Test 1
    Test 2
    When I try to add the text blocks following documentation mentioned above, it only adds one record for the Data Group I have chosen and the record contains the entry "Test 1" from the first line in the text file.
    How can I add multiple records to the data group from a file?

    From my testing it appears that you need to have one text file per text block record in Data Manager.
    I wrote VBA macro to so that I could input my text blocks into an Excel spreadsheet and then the macro will take the contents of each cell in a highlighted column and create one text file per cell.
    Then using Data manager, I can select all of the text files at once and it will import them, creating one record per text file.
