How do I hide my name for phone calls

How can i set my bb classic so that only my number shows up for incoming calls (my name hidden to the caller) and for outgoing calls (my name hidden to the person I'm calling)? 

Basically you can't do what you want. You can go to settings and check to 'not show phone number' when making a call. The Caller ID is handled by your carrier, you certainly can try but I don't think you'll be successful in having them remove your name. You might able to get them to change it for example to your company name. There are lots of people making calls with VOIP phones doing robo calls to sell you stuff that have solftware that allows them to play games with their caller ID but that's outside your scope. Lastly, lots of people don't answer calls when you block your number (it shows up  Caller ID Blocked)  but you can decide on that..

  • My phone displays numbers instead of contact names for incoming calls and text - how do I fix?

    My phone displays numbers instead of contact names for incoming calls and text - how do I fix?  It used to display the names if there was a contact listed, now it just shows numbers regardless of whether or not the number corresponds to a contact name in the contact list.  Can anyone help?  I googled this problem and lots of folks have experienced it, however there is not a consensus for a resolution.

    Alexandribill, I have been having the exact same issue.  I got a new phone and restored my contacts.  If the # doesn't have the area code first then the name isn't shown.  I just added my husbands area code to my phone and called my phone from his and now his name shows up...Ugh, I have to go through and manually add the area code to all my contacts....
    I'd say Verizon needs to rewrite their program to include the area code in the restoring from backup process!

  • How can I hide file names in a photostream?

    How can I hide file names in a shared photo stream on icloud.  I don't want people to see how many pictures I take at an event.  Can this be done to pictures already posted?

    The Shared Photo Stream uses the filename of the original image file as the title that is shown in the stream.  If you want to hide the original filename, export the image to a folder in the Finder, rename it, then reimport it to share it.  You can rename the files directly when exporting.
    Or, if you do not mind to change the names of the originals in Aperture use the command "Metadata > Batch change" and change the title of the image, with the option "Apply to Original file" enabled and "Add metadata from" set to "None".
    To rename the photos already shared, delete them from the Shared Album and share them again.

  • How to get the owner name for the file in ftp using abap ?

    Hi folks ,
    How to get the owner name for the file in ftp using abap ? please help me very ugernt . I tried with all standard FTP commands
    but doest work out me . Helping in this regard highly appreciated ...
    Thanks and regards,
    Swarupa Vanarchi

    Hi
    dont you  have used the os user while calling the FTP_CONNECT FM?
    Hope you are not talking about the user executing the FTP program.
    Else If you are talking about the FTP file creator then its not related to abap as you can handle it by maintaining the user in file name itself.
    May be i am going too far with if and elses here as your question possesses no  clarity.
    Plz elaborate your requirement  before anybody can help.

  • How can I choose another name for Game Center? (not a nick)

    How can I choose another name for Game Center ? (not a nick)

    Hi XxCarrisxX,
    I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on exactly what you are asking. If you are talking about changing to or using a different Apple ID in Game Center, you may find the following article helpful:
    Sign in to your Game Center account using your Apple ID. If you don't have an Apple ID or another Apple account, tap or click Create New Account to create an account to use with Game Center.
    You can change the account you are signed into by:
    iOS: Tap Settings > Game Center.
    OS X: Click the Me tab in the Game Center app and click on your Account.
    Apple Support: Using Game Center
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4314
    However, make sure you are aware of the following:
    Note: Please note each Apple ID has its own associated scores, achievements, and friends.
    Apple IDs are also tied to your other Apple services, and therefore should not be created lightly.

  • How to get mobile model name for different types mobile devices

    Hi,
    I have checked few thread in this forum about getting mobile model name at server. So far, i noticed the mobile name is set manually in the midlet as user-agent .
    HttpConnection connection = null;           connection = (HttpConnection)Connector.open(url);          connection.setRequestMethod(HttpConnection.POST);          connection.setRequestProperty("User-Agent","Nokia7110 Profile/MIDP-1.0 Configuration/CLDC-1.0");
    i retrieve the header information from servlet like below :-
    String userAgent = request.getHeader("User-Agent");
    How to get mobile model name for different model devices , not by manually adding the model name in midlet?
    Thanks in advance :-)

    Hi,
    In J2ME there is no method to get the model number from the device. how ever you can use the APIs provided by the device manufacturer if available. But still the APIs will not work with devices from other manufacturer or sometimes it will not work with the devices of the same manufacturer if the API is not supported. so it is better to send the device model name through the header.

  • How can we give two name for a single material ??

    Hi friends
    how can we give two name for a single material ??
    e.g.. if single material is sold to different customer by different names
    then how can we do that ??

    Yes
    you can achieve it thro CMIR in T code VD51
    Go to T code VD51 choose that customer and material combination and click on to its details blue lens on application tool bar
    In the screen which is coming ,enter your description in the CUSTOMER DESCRIPTION tab the second one and save
    Now create a sales order and see
    Your requirement will be fulfilled
    If a material is pen description is ball pen in material master and for customer A you have defined it as Pen 1 and description as Super ball pen in VD51
    If a material is pen description is ball pen in material master and for customer B  you have defined it as Pen 1 and description as  VerySuper ball pen in VD51
    Now in sales order the description will appear as Super ball pen for Customer A
    Now in sales order the description will appear as Very Super ball pen for Customer B
    Hence the material pen whose description is ball pen in MMR will appear as super ball pen for customer A and very super ball pen for customer B
    Hope you have checked the field info record in VOV8

  • How to change the package name for a msg class

    Can anybody tell me how to change the package name for a message class.
    and how will it effect in the rerport?
    thanks in advance
    kp

    >>and how will it effect in the report?
    You wouldn't see any direct effect on the Report.. But if you transport the report to QA & leave the Message class in Dev, it might result in syntax issues & you will not be able to execute the report. Just ensure that both of them get transported to QA & you will be fine.

  • How to Add the title name for Graph in Excel

    Dear Friends
                      I am using LabVIEW 8.0.I need how to add the title name for chart in Excel.
    Jayavel
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Do you have the Report Generation Toolkit? If so, the Excel Easy Graph VI has an input for that.
    If you don't have the toolkit then you will need to use ActiveX. Please do a search on how to use ActiveX (there are examples that ship with LabVIEW) to control Excel. There are also lots of example in the Excel thread. NOTE: DO NOT POST QUESTIONS IN THAT THREAD. 
    Ultimately you will need to look up the information in MSDN. 

  • How can I hide my cam for some applications like messenger, skype, etc.

    Hi,
    How could I hide my cam for some applications?
    Thanks in advance!

    There's a support file in the System/Library/QuickTime folder that you can move elsewhere temporarily: QuickTimeUSBVDCDigitizer.component. Don't delete it, just move it. Any apps you open from that point will not have access to the camera. Move the file back to re-activate it (you may need to reboot).
    There is also an AppleScript to do the same thing, but I can't guarantee it works for 10.8.

  • How to set iPhone Bluetooth to be just for phone calls?

    Is there a way to setup an iPhone 4s/5, iOS 6, to use the bluetooth only for phone calls?
    I don't want music, youtube, google maps, or any app to go thru my car speakers. Phone calls work fine because the car will switch to Bluetooth audio automatically for those. I usually have my car audio set to radio so no apps are audible in the car unless I manually switch the car to Bluetooth Audio but then I can't listen to the radio.

    The only way around this, depending on the car system,
    is connect the iPhone to the unit via USB.
    At least with my Ford SYNC system, I can pair via
    Bluetooth and connect the USB and select USB audio
    on the Ford unit and in the Music app on the iPhone.
    Doing this, all phoner functions go via Bluetooth and
    everything else is over USB.
    Perhaps your car system supports something similar
    or not.  If it doesn't, there is nothing you can do.
