  • How Do I turn off Text message on my MacBook Air

    My MacBook Air, my husband's Macbook Pro, and my Iphone4 are all linked and therefore my husband sees all my text. The problem is an educator I may be discussing something confidential, therefore how do I unlink his mac from my iphone. We do share the same Apple account...

    Hi there Zorro1960,
    You should be able to prevent your messages from going to your computer, by removing your phone number from iMessages and turning off Text Message Forwarding using these instructions. They are about turning on these features but you should turn them off instead:
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By, and add a check to both your phone number and email address.
    Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • Unity - How do I turn off voicemail message "your mailbox is almost full"?

    We recently set a mailbox limit on our exchange server. Some users are over the limit until they deuce their mailbox size. When they check their messages via the 7940 "messages" button, they get the message "Your mailbox is almost full?etc" before it will playback their messages. Once they get their mailbox under 90% of the limit the messages will go away. My question is how do I turn off the message? I realize the message is a "good thing", but even if it's a system (all off) setting, please post. I did find how keep outside users that are calling in from hearing that they can't leave a message because the person they're trying to contact has a full mailbox, so that's not what I'm looking for. I?m just trying to find out how to keep the user with the new limit from hearing that every time.
    We are running Unity 4.2(1)

    You can disable this in the registry. This is not a Cisco documented or recommended option. I have done it for customers who were really adament about the notifications.
    Here are the steps to do on your Unity server. Again I want to stress I'm not sure if this is Cisco supported but it's a simple change that requires no reboot.
    1. Backup your windows registry
    2. Open regedit
    3. Browse to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Active Voice\MalEx\1.0
    4. Open the REG_DWORD DisableStatusCheck
    5. Change the value from 0 to 1
    This should take effect right away. This is a universal system all off for the Unity server only. Exchange is not effected.
    Please rate any helpful posts
    Thanks

  • How can I turn off "i-message?"

  • HT3529 I no longer have my iPhone 4s so how can i turn off i-messages for my number?

    I no longer have my iPhone 4s so how can i turn off i-messages for my number?

    Hey there fwhitson,
    It sounds like you no longer have your phone but need to unlink your phone number from the iMessages service. According to this article, this is what you do:
    iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5538
    Note: If you no longer have access to the iPhone that is using the number you want to remove, reset your Apple ID password.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.

  • How do i turn off the startup sound on macbook pro?

    how do i turn off the startup sound on macbook pro?

    You don't. You may find some third-party software that will, however. Try Auto Mute.
    Alternatively, you can try this:
    I think this is the best and simplest solution. Open a Terminal window and type (or copy/paste) the following to turn down the startup noise:
         sudo nvram SystemAudioVolume="%00"
    Press RETURN.
    And to restore it to the original value type:
         sudo nvram -d SystemAudioVolume
    Press RETURN.
    That's all folks.

  • 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 do I turn off the message asking me to sign in to my iCloud?

    While using my iPad and my iPhone, I keep getting a mesage to sign in to my Itunes and or iCloud account....how can I turn these off?

    You can turn off the multitasking gestures which may be causing the screen to move form app to app when he swipes left to right or swipes up from the bottom.
    Go to Settings>General>Multitasking gestures>Off. That should help some.
    Unfortuantely - You can't turn off the notification center - the calendar that pulls down from the top. If you swipe down from the top, that is always going to appear on the screen. 
    And there is no way to simply lock into one app. You can lock the screen orientation via the side switch or in the task bar at the bottom of the iPad - double tap the home button and swipe to the right to find the screen lock icon all the way on the left -  it isn't locked by the side switch.
    There may be iPad cases that will aid you in preventing your son from accidentally performing these screen movements with his hands, however, you would have to search for those with a Google search or maybe post a more specific question in this help site in order to get input from others in similar circumstances. You need something along the lines of a kiosk case - but one that allows more freedom of touch.
