Hello Traceyp1,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
If you do not want to receive iMessage on your Mac, then all you need to do is simply sign out of the Apple ID in the Messages Accounts preferences.
Account Information pane of Accounts preferences for AIM, Jabber, Google Talk, and Yahoo! - Messages Help
Have a great weekend,

How do I stop getting text messages on my macbook air

How do I stop getting text messages on my MacBook Air?

Hi,
The Mac has an App that is called Messages and one of the accounts in it is the iMessages one that can sync with the iOS one.
Open the Messages app and go to the Preferences (In the drop down Menu in the Apps name in the Menu Bar)
In the Preferences select the Accounts tab.
Select the iMessages account if it is not selected.
Untick the iPhone Number to stop iMessages sent to your iPhone Number appearing on your Mac.
Also go to the General section of the Preferences.
There is an items that reads "When I quit, set the Status to Off Line" select this.
This will stop any incoming Messages (from any source that Messages can join) from launching to app when you have not started it but your Computer is On.
You may also want to go to your iPhone Settings and remove the Apple ID.

How can I stop getting unsolicited **** messages in iMessage

As the title states I need to stop getting **** messages in iMessage on my phone. I can tell because they start with a number like 906.xx, not a phone number.
This may not be possible to stop but catch before I open
Has anyone else run into this issue and if so what have you don't to attempt to stop it.

at the top page of Messages on my phone there is no color code, it's all just grey text, I do not click open the message, I swipe left and delete but this has happened several times this month.
I done not visit those types of sights on my phone or my MBP
It's been suggested that there is a robot dialing random numbers, but to get three in a month make me wonder.
Thanks for the tip,
I will look at it on my MBP next time to see if its there and if it has a color.
very good advise
thanks

How do I stop getting error messages while creating a NEW iTunes account?

I'm new to MAC. Have been a PC user for nearly 15 years, so I am learning. Recently tried to login into iTunes. I wanted to start a digital music library as I am YEARS behind in that area. However everytime that I try to 'Create a New Account' on iTunes I get the following message:
Session Timeout. Your session has timed out. Please try this operation from the beginning.
I have repeatedly quit iTunes and tried to create a new account. I have downloaded the newest version of iTunes. Re-started my computer. It does not seem to matter what I do, I cannot create an account for myself and I always get the same error message. What should I do to resolve this?
Thank you,

We all had the same problem.

Everytime I try to open a website an error message pops up that says: Firefox.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience. How do I stop getting this message?

When I try to delete this message the website I am trying to reach closes and I revert back to my home page

How can I stop the Struts messages

How can I stop getting Struts messages such as:
RequestProcessor - -Processing a 'POST' for path '/login'RequestProcessor - -Processing a 'GET' for path '/Welcome'
I cannot deploy my application on the production server because these messages will be all sent to the log files through System.out.
In one of other postings, someone suggested adding the commons-logging.properties, and the simplelog.properties files to the project. Unfortunately, that didn't help.
I appreciate your help.

Struts 1.1 Beta-2 (which JDev 9.0.3, 9.0.3.1, and 9.0.3.2 ship with) has a bug where you cannot silence all of the diagnostics.
It's been fixed in the Struts 1.1 final release.
See this article on my web log for how to upgrade the BC4J Toy Store appliacation to use Struts 1.1 Final. You can use the tips to then upgrade your own application, too.

HT4890 How come I keep getting this message when I turn on my computer: 'photo stream has stopped working.' my pictures aren't saving on the cloud!

How come I keep getting this message when I turn on my computer: 'photo stream has stopped working.' My pictures aren't being saved from my iphone to my computer. I have wifi enabled on my iphone. Thanks for your help.

Firefox 2.0.0.20 is the last ever version of Firefox for Win98 / SE / ME.
You can get it from here, but you are better off using K-Meleon (derived from Firefox) or Opera instead an old version of Firefox:
[ftp://ftp.mozilla.org/pub/firefox/releases/2.0.0.20/win32/en-US/]
You can try KernelEx to get Firefox 3+ to work, but it would be very slow with an old PC of less than 750Mhz. 3.5 and later supposedly doesn't work.

I use yahoo business mail, but I am getting hundreds of spam message on my Mac Air. I don't get them on my iPhone. Ive run a Malware app. Does anyone know how I can stop getting all this junk mail. Thanks

How do i stop getting spam coming to my mailbox using Yahoo Business mail? I use Yahoo Biz Mail, but am now getting a huge amount of spam. I don't get any using the same address on my iPhone. I ran a Malware app - didn't help. Any ideas??

Hello SkeeterOz,
It sounds like you’re seeing spam emails in the Mail application on your MacBook Air, but you aren’t seeing those spam emails on your iPhone. The article linked below will walk you through enabling Junk Mail filtering in Mail and specifying what you want to do with the emails that are filtered.
Mail (Mavericks): Change the junk mail filter
I hope this helps.

How do i stop getting my wifes contacts from her iphone on mine?
Also how do you sync notes from imac to iphone??

For the Notes issue, on the iMac go to Apple Menu > System Preferences > iCloud and insure Notes is one of the items checked.
The following is a previous discussion on setting up a separate Apple ID for using iCloud but still sharing the same iTunes if desired: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23204265#23204265
