  • How do I stop unwanted contacts on facetime

    how do I stop unwanted contact on facetime this party keeps sending me messages and I have asked them to stop but they wont.

    The Mail app doesn't have a spam filter, any filtering that you want to do needs to be done before it reaches the iPad - if you log into your account via a browser, does your email provider have any settings/options that you can enable  ?

  • How can I stop unwanted scam emails  ex: someone wats to give me $2,500,000.00

    How can I stop unwanted emails?  Here is an example:
    Good Day,
    Although, I do not know you in person, I have received your contact via, personal search while seeking a reliable but obscure individual to assist me in this pending transaction. It became necessary for me to seek your assistance as i want you to assist me in investing my share of the money in your Country.
    Let me start by introducing myself. I am Mr.Wong Cheng director of operations of the Bank Of Japan,United Kingdom . I have an Obscured business suggestion for you . In 2003, the subject matter; ref: bb/boj/bank/0012  came to our bank to engage in business discussions with our Private Banking Services Department. A client of ours informed us that he had a financial portfolio of 8.35 million United States Dollars, which he wished to have us turn over (invest) on his behalf and i was the officer assigned to his case.The favored route in my advice to customers is to start by assessing data on 6000 traditional stocks and bond managers and 2000 managers of alternative investments,this yielded funds in just 2 Years.
    In mid 2005, he asked that the money be liquidated because he needed to make an urgent investment requiring cash payments in Europe.I undertook all the processes and made sure I followed his precise instructions to the letter and had the funds deposited in a security consultancy firm,He told me he wanted the money there in anticipation of his arrival from Norway later that week. This was the last communication we had, this transpired around 9th October, 2005.
    I made futile efforts to locate him I immediately passed the task of locating him to the internal investigations department of the bank of japan.Four days later, information started to trickle in, apparently he was dead. In line with our internal processes for account holders who have passed away, we instituted our own investigations in good faith to determine who should have right to claim the estate. This investigation has for the past months been unfruitful. We have scanned every continent and used our private investigation affiliate companies to get to the root of the problem.
    What I wish to relate to you will smack of unethical practice but I want you to understand something,there is US$ 8,370,000.00 deposited , I alone have the deposit details and they will release the deposit to no one unless I instruct them to do so,i alone know of the existence of this deposit for as far as BOJ is concerned.
    My proposal;  I am prepared to place you in a position to give instruction for the release of the deposit to you as the closest surviving relation.Upon receipt of the deposit, I am prepared to share the money with you in half. That is: I will simply nominate you as the next of kin and have them release the deposit to you. We share the proceeds 50/50.
    I am aware of the consequences of this proposal.I ask that if you find no interest in this project that you should discard this mail.I am not a criminal and what I do, I do not find against good conscience,this may be hard for you to understand, but the dynamics of my industry dictates that I make this move.
    If you find yourself able to work with me, Contact me only through this email address (XXXXX),Please observe this instruction religiously. Please, again, note I am a family man; I have a wife and children.I send you this mail not without a measure of fear as to what the consequences,but I know within me that nothing ventured is nothing gained and that success and riches never come easy or on a platter of gold.
    I await your response,here is my Email again (XXXX)

    Unfortunately, spam is a disadvantage to having an email address and there isn't much you can do to stop receiving them. However, you can filter these messages using a spam filter. Check with your email provider to see what options they offer to deal with spam. If you are using apple mail, turn on the junk mail filter in the settings (Mail, preferences).

  • How can i stop the upgrade message appearing everytime i open iphoto?

    How can i stop the upgrade message appearing everytime i open iphoto?
    It's getting ridiculous that every time i open iphoto that it insists in being upgraded and repaired. Anyone know how i can get rid of this without reinstalling it?
    Thanks

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Repair Database. If that doesn't help, then try again, this time using Rebuild Database.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. (In early versions of Library Manager it's the File -> Rebuild command. In later versions it's under the Library menu.)
    This will create an entirely new library. It will then copy (or try to) your photos and all the associated metadata and versions to this new Library, and arrange it as close as it can to what you had in the damaged Library. It does this based on information it finds in the iPhoto sharing mechanism - but that means that things not shared won't be there, so no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your events, albums and keywords, faces and places back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.  
    Regards
    TD

  • Just brought my daughter an iphone and have her setup on my ID. Want to be able to see her messages and photos but dont want my info to appear on her phone. How do i stop the messages from appearing on her phone? (5's)

    Just brought my daughter an iphone and have her setup on my ID. Want to be able to see her messages and photos but dont want my info to appear on her phone. How do i stop the messages from appearing on her phone?

    If you have set up photo stream, this can't be done. As soon as you switch off photo stream on her device to keep your photos from coming to her device, you won't get any as well from her. Same for messages, you can't have both, sorry.
    Maybe look into the family sharing feature if you want the photos to be shared:
    Apple - iCloud - Family Sharing

  • How do I stop unwanted texts?

    I am getting texts from gmail account members that I don't know
    How can I stop this?

    Are they coming in through iMessage?
    There isn't anyway to block unwanted messages at the moment.
    What you could do is turn iMessage off so you only receive SMS messages.

  • How do I stop unwanted/promotional content delivery to the iPod?

    I found I have a number of songs that have been pushed to my iPod that I do not want. How do I stop this unwanted promotional material in the future. I cannot find a setting in iTunes or on the iPod Touch. TIA

    Never mind . . . we selected a couple of compilation CDs we ripped (7 CDs classed Various Artists) to sync. It really populates the By Artist view - wasn't expecting that, but makes sense. Sorry for the bogus post.

  • How can I stop Air Software from appearing on my screen?

    Every time my computer starts back up, a small window appears in the lower right of my screen from Air Software. It's telling me I need to download to clean up my PC. I checked and found that I really don't want to download anything from this site. But, how can I stop it from appearing?

    If we assume it's some kind of malware, I suggest the following:
    (1) Open the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program. After the list loads, click the "Installed on" column heading to group the infections, I mean, additions, by date. This can help in smoking out undisclosed bundle items that snuck in with some software you agreed to install. Take out as much trash as possible here.
    (2) Supplement your regular security software by running the scanning/cleaning tools listed in this support article: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]]. These are free, and take time to run. If they seem to finish quickly and requiring payment, you may have a serious infection.

  • How can i stop unwanted advs?

    It in unbearable, I can't open a web page without finding tens of underlined coloured words/phrases which end up being advs. How can I stop it? I tried to clear all cookies, but it is not enough.

    You installed the "DownLite" trojan, perhaps under a different name. Remove it as follows.
    Malware is constantly changing to get around the defenses against it. The instructions in this comment are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
    Back up all data.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
    Right-click or control-click the line and select
              Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
    from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "VSearch" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
    Repeat with each of these lines:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
    /Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
    Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
    /Library/Application Support/VSearch
    /Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
    /System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
    Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
    From the Safari menu bar, select
              Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
    Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot" or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
    This trojan is distributed on illegal websites that traffic in pirated movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect much worse to happen in the future.
    You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the DownLite developer has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing, has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight is inexcusable and has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
    *If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C. In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
