How do I (can I?) disable call waiting

I'm not talking about blocking call waiting when making a particular outgoing call.  I'm talking about turning it off so that it won't interupt incoming calls too.  BTW, I'd be just as happy to lose tthat feature permanently!

Hi jlcohen,
I'm glad to see you are aware of the steps to block call waiting on a per call basis, by dialing *70 before the 10 digit number.  I would be happy to assist you with permanently removing the call waiting feature.  At your convenience, you can either call customer service by dialing *611 from your cell phone or PM me your wireless number.  I hope this information is helpful.
Thanks for your contribution to our community forums,

    How to enable/disable call waiting option in iphone5. setting --> phone does not show up call waiting / call forwarding options

    I've gone through your message completely, if you do not have the Call Waiting option under Settings > iPhone it means your carrier does not let you access that feature on the phone. Contact them and see if they have dialing codes to turn it off and back on.

  • How do I disable call waiting when sending a FAX on a Photosmart C410a All-in-One?

    When sending a FAX from my computer, I added *70 to the dialing prefix to disable Call Waiting.  The problem appears to be that either my C410a does not recognize the * or perhaps I must add a pause after the *70.  The user guide says to hit the up arrow to insert a pause but I think that might only work for FAXes that are dialed from the All-in-One, not the computer.  In another place in the User Guide, it instructs to hit asterisk twice ** to get a pause.  When dialing from the computer, if I hit ** I get ** not a pause.  (I use Comcast and they do not give a new dial tone after hitting *70 so I don't think the pause is necessary.)
    If I remove the *70 from the dialing sequence on the computer, the FAX goes right through but a Call Waiting signal might stop the FAX.
    Anyone know how to include *70 for computer dialing?

    Hello LCHutton, I hope you are well
    I read your post about your attempts to disable call waiting when sending a fax. I would suggest looking in the fax menu on the printer and turning off the ECM (Error Correction Mode), and also changing the Fax Speed to slow.
    I hope either of those steps help you!

  • Possibility of disabling call waiting prior to receiving an important call?

    I am aware that I can set 'do not disturb', and allow certain numbers to ring. The problem is, I am scheduled for a phone interview -- from a university. This means that a. they will call me (obv.), and b. the actual phone# the call comes from could be a different line from that of the phone being dialled, depending on their phone system's call-routing system.
    In fact, what our phones need as a feature, is the ability to decide on the fly that a call is important, and turn call waiting off at the touch of a button. If I'm writing down directions to the hospital upon receiving news of a family emergency, I don't want to be interrupted, but stuff like this -- or an incoming call from a potential employer to arrange an interview -- can't be planned for ahead of time, and unnecessary increase the user's stresss level.
    Any solid knowledge or creative workarounds welcome. (And yes, a land-line number is better for phone interviews. Problem is, I will be at work and doing the interview on my break.)
    I have iPhone 4S; am running iOS 7.1.1, updated yesterday.

    I've found that simply ignoring call waiting prevents me from being interrupted by other calls. Just because someone calls doesn't mean you have to answer it. However, your carrier may also have a two digit code you can dial to disable call waiting before making a call. For example, with Verizon, it's *70.

  • Disable call waiting

    iphone 5 c  I want to disable call waiting, permanently.  I do not want to dial * anything before each call.  I do not want call waiting, ever!  where can I find this setting?
    thanks

    I get it but it's the same beep as the call waiting we've had on landlines for 20 years. Plus, in all my years working with and troubleshooting mobile devices I have never had anyone ask this question.
    For which I will say that I didn't have call waiting on my landline when I last had one over ten years ago and I so rarely get a call from two numbers at once on my cell phone that it isn't something that I recognize. The beep also sounds like one of my other notification tones for Google reminders I think that I easily can ignore it until the end of the call.

  • Can't Enable Call Waiting

    I've been trying to enable call waiting in Settings,Phone. I keep getting a message that it "Could not save call waiting setting". It's happening on both my phone and my wife's phone. Have not checked the kids phone yet. Anyone else having this problem? Have restarted the phone, but not restored yet. Going to call AT&T today when I get a chance.

    I had the same problem not being able to get my call waiting setting to stick. I had to call AT&T several times to get them to reset it correctly.
    When they reset your account provisioning, be sure to tell them to "check the tower side, too."
    The tower provisioning is what tells the phone what it is allowed to do and not do.

  • I don't hear the call waiting distinctive ring/tone??

    Both my best friend and I have Verizon wireless. When i'm on a call and she calls me she can hear the call waiting distinctive ring however when i call her and she's on the phone i don't hear it.
    My question is why is that possible?

    aiden17 wrote:
    Yes it does help. I really dont like it and i have been wanting to get that removed, the distinctive ring. I have searched to see if its possible and alot of information contradics one another.
    Do you think eventually verizon will remove it permantely across the board?
    I'm confused.  In your OP you say you don't hear it.  Now you say you would like it removed.  If you don't want it AND don't hear it, what's the problem?

    Hi Francesco,
    Are you talking about that ??? )) It will explain you about to get the name of the web page when you are executing an abap function for determining the values of variables...

    This is weird: I wrote that document a few weeks ago, it is theorically published on SDN but this is not possible to find it by using the research tool... Maybe because it applies only to BPS in 3.5. I did not have enough time to migrate that solution to BI-IP 7.0.

  • The windows of the Windows bar are already a form of tabs, so I don't need them in Firefox. How can I disable them completely from Firefox 23?

    RE: TABS ARE WINDOWS!
    The Windows bar already functions as a tab bar. Those tabs are called "windows." So, I find Firefox tab windows superfluous. How can I disable them completely from Firefox 23? I don't need what is essentially TWO windows bars covering up the entire width of my widescreen monitor's image! I already have a Windows bar at the bottom of my screen and, if I really wanted to, I could change ITS position to the top of the screen, so that it would LOOK like the Firefox tab windows bar. Firefox TABS are, essentially, a superfluous SECOND WINDOWS BAR.
    Here are my reasons for why I'd rather use Mozilla's Firefox, than Microsoft's Internet Explorer or Google's Chrome. I love and admire Firefox for Mozilla's intent on good security, for Firefox's Personas add-on, and for Firefox's free use of the Ad-Block add-on which, as you know, has the distinct virtue of reducing screen clutter--the last of which is my motive for wanting to get rid of the SUPERFLUOUS Firefox tabs "windows" bar. I am dreadfully sick of companies forcing miscellaneous bars (mostly representing marketing campaigns trying to sell me something) into my browser (and down my throat) every time I download something. (In case you haven't guessed, I am deliberately referring to your Firefox tabs bar as a "Firefox tabs 'windows' bar," because TABS are WINDOWS!)

    Let me clarify even more. The Firefox add-on you mention does not remove "tabs" windows. It only HIDES the "tabs" bar when there is only one "tab" in that window. It DOES NOT end "tabs." It does not turn "tabs" off.
    I know this, because, even with the add-on you recommend, the "tabs" bar often re-appears when I open a link, which--for some unknown reason--Firefox defaults to opening in a second "tab" within the same window, rather than putting it in a new Windows bar window. This, of course, disregards what I want to happen.
    I want to use my Windows bar to control my windows. I do not want my Firefox browser controlling my windows--which it calls "tabs." Can you tell me how to shut off "tabs?"

  • How can i disable a submit button and execute submit_action method on click

    Good Day,
    On my page I have a submit button that execute the submit_action method of the page backing bean that submit data captured on the page into a database and activate another class that send mail at the same time on a click of the submit button,the mail process takes a while before returning back to the page.I was able to disable the submit button to prevent the user from keep click while the process is running but the issue is on clicking the submit button it only disable the submit button without executing the submit_action method of the page backing bean.How can i disable the submit button and execute submit_method of the backing bean at the same time.
    Thanks in advance.

    I tried this out on one of my pages to see if it works.
    First, I added the following JavaScript to my submit button's onClick event:
    this.disabled=true; return true;When I clicked the submit button, it was disabled but the form was not submitted.
    I deleted the JavaScript from the onClick event and added the following JavaScript to the form's onSubmit event:
    var button = document.getElementById("form1:submitButton"); button.disabled=true; return true;When I click the submit button, it was disabled and the form was submitted but the button's action method was not called.
    The next thing I tried was to change the onSubmit event code:
    var button = document.getElementById("form1:submitButton"); setTimeout("button.disabled=true", 500); return true;This seemed to work. The difference was that I added a 1/2 second delay before disabling the button.
    See if that works for you. If not then I'm fresh out of ideas.

  • How can I DISABLE the pop up 'Would you like to copy it to Library', preventing this message from bothering for each and every book, again and again, time after time? (Windows 7 64bit US).

    I guess this may be a feature request. Adobe may think this is a good message for every new eBook.
    I sure would like to decide about that myself.

    Decided to setup the mail for exchange on my N8 so I could see my work emails. Worked like a charm but after a couple of hours decided I didn't like being that contactable so deleted the mailbox.
    Now to the problem, during setup I was forced to enable the phone lock and had to pick a 7 digit alphanumeric code. Fair enough I thought and went ahead. When I removed the mailbox however the lock remained in place with the default auto time of 30 minutes. When I checked in Phone management there is no option to disable this lock so I thought I could at least change the default time to something bigger but when you try, it remains at 30 mins. You also can't disable the auto time as it pops up an error message saying can't unlock phone.
    Does anyone know if I'm missing something obvious here or is this something which can't be disabled once it's switched on? I've done a soft reset back to factory settings with no luck and the only other thing I can think of is re installing the firmware which seems a bit extreme.
    Would like to hope there is some way to have control over this. Can someone help?
    Which firmware your N8 having now? You can check firmware by choosing Call, then type *#0000#.
    My N8 works fine on security setting and able to define Phone auto lock period, by choosing Menu>Settings>Phone>Phone management>Security settings>Phone and SIM card>Phone auto lock period>User defined>Lock after(minutes)
    You will prompt to enter Lock code each time u define auto lock priod or enable/disable auto lock.
    Hope this can help you.

  • How can I disable input on the ALV gridview?

    Hi everybody,
    I'm developing an application and would like for my users to be able to view the data in the ALV grid. Actually the only thing they may be able to do are delete rows from the ALV.
    I set the ALV grid to editmode so you can insert and delete rows. But  how can I disable the Insert functionality without losing the delete functionality?
    Is is possible to just remove or hide the 'add row' button in the toolbar?
