How can I disable the new voice feature in iMessage?

iMessage is great and I use it a lot, but I hate the new voice feature. I don't want anyone to be able to send me a voice message. I think it's extremely pushy. If someone wants to talk to me, he should give me a call. Then I can decide whether I answer the call or not. How can I disable this without completly disabling iMessage?

I'm pretty sure there's no way to prevent this, just like there's no way to prevent a text message or picture/video message.  If you don't want to listen to it, delete it, and text them back and tell them you don't like voice messages and they need to call you and leave a voicemail.

  • I am using Firefox 3.6 on my PC , and now, when I select File New Tab (Ctrl+T), no new Tab shows up. Nor does it show up when I click the new Tab symbol next to my other tabs. How can I get the New Tab feature to work again?

    In the past 48 hrs, all of a sudden, the New Tab feature on my PC< using Firefox 3.56, simply stopped working. I did not change settings, or download a new version of Firefox. it just stopped working. There are other scenarios where it does still work (for example, if I want to open a link on a web page, I can right click and open the link in a new tab), but if I simply want to have multiple websites open at once on my PC, I am forced to have multiple versions of Firefox open, as my New Tab option seems to be disabled or something. Can you help?

    Leliforever, cheek you list of installed add-ons, the Ask toolbar can be installed without the users knowledge.

  • How can I disable the new built-in PDF-viewer?

    Hi Folks,
    I recently got a strange problem with Nightly 15.0a1. All PDF documents are opened with the new built-in PDF viewer and it does not matter if it´s enabled or disabled - it just always opens and renders/loads the PDF file. But I want it to be done by Acrobat Reader, or save it to disk.
    I tried Tools-->Options--->Applications and marked all PDF related stuff to "ask" or selected the Acrobat Reader, but it did not help at all.
    Can anyone help me with this?

  • How can I disable the "New capabilities in .... Click here" message

    Hi,
    I really, really like PSE 9, but this constant message telling me that there are new capabilities in the spot healing brush is getting to be rather old.  I'm hoping there is a way to disable this initially helpful, but ultimately highly annoying feature.  My short term memory is not that bad yet.
    Thanks,
    Brian

    Hit the Tab key.  That'll get rid of everything but the top menu.
    After that, you can select Window...Tools to get your desired configuration.  (Unfortunately, the Options Bar will not be available, so your Tools will be less than useful....)

  • How can I disable the session restore feature after I have closed the broweser window myself?

    I don't want to disable ANY other feature at all (e.g. restoring session after a crash), I only want when I close Firefox and restart it to start new on my home page, without any restored tabs whatsoever. I have tried everything on about:config and it won't seem to do the trick.
    This is a big privacy concern and I'm really puzzled why Firefox was programmed this way without an easily accessible option to change it.

    hello kayjay76, this sounds like a problem caused by some sort of adware on your pc. please go to ''firefox > addons > extensions'' & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve, etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and run a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and different other tools like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes] & [http://www.bleepingcomputer.com/download/adwcleaner/ adwcleaner].

  • How can I disable the new facebook and twitter shortcuts?

    With the most recent update at least two new keyboard shortcuts were added, CMD+CTRL+f and CMD+CTRL+t attempt to post to facebook or twitter respectively.  While I'm happy to see the functionality, there doesn't seem to be a way to change these or turn them off through they keyboard shortcuts preference pane or through the setup for the two services.  Is there any way to do so? I ask because I have had those key combinations bound to other actions for a very long time, and having this happen in addition their original functions is rather jarring.

    Cmd-Ctrl-F is set to go Full Screen in Safari and Mail, and probably all others, so I doubt an update changed it to Facebook.
    Cmd-Ctrl-T is not enabled for anything on my Mac.
    Perhaps you installed something that causes that functionality.
