How do you block no caller ID calls

I have blocked someone on my iPhone. They realized they can call me under private. How can I block a private call?

Not true!  Do Not Disturb blocks all calls except those from the folks you specify.
Here's the Do Not Disturb writeup from the iPhone User Guide:

    How do you block a number?

    Hi Steve359,
    Why should I be required to take time away to go to Verizon's website when all this could be handled locally on the phone taking only a few seconds of time.
    1. When people say block a call, many times they are just trying to block spam or wrong numbers. If it's persoanl issue or threats then yes have Verizon step in if legal action is need it's the user that initiates this. My suggestion is not meant for those in that situation.
    2. Verion, per your notes above, is limited to 5 numbers blocked and you need to renew. Again have the Iphone software handle the users preference which typcially is just ignore the number. I've gotten over 4 spams in Nov. alone as I use my phone for biz and life in general. I expect even more in December with all the holiday spammers gearing up. I can hear them buying server hardware on Cyber Monday deals just to increase spam capacity for Xmass hahaha hohoho.
    3. If you get a text message from spammer, allow the user would have to do is identify it as spam and send to a junk or spam folder. Keep tabs of the number and any text or Vmail for later. Let user decide what length to hold it or delete it instantly.
    4. Many spammers roll through phone numbers quickly so the numbers are constantly changing. Handle this in software so you do not limit users to what the carrier limits. Many of the Do Not Call laws were created from results of court cases and protection of individuals so why depend on that system for simple spam? Spam is a growing problem and you need to update how you handle it.
    If you do it on the iphone, I get the feeling that Apple is not interested in adding this type of feature, you are not limited to 5 every three months, you don't have to renew, and the user gets more control and options. Something like this would help.
    1. Once a text comes in that is spam, send it to spam folder. That number and message is stored on iphone.
    User can indicate ignore all messages, Note I'm not saying block!!!!!, the message is saved until deleted just in case "Do not call List or legal or carrier action is needed and you need to show proof" Next tiem spam is sent from that number it'll automatically go to that folder.
    2. Incoming calls handled same way, allow user to indicate if they get rings from spam folder or if no action is needed. Keep it stupid simple! Note a time in the recent call list and indicate it was spam.
    So the question I have, why go through the hassle of calling carrier when Apple should have a spam option in the software? Let the carrier and legal system handle the bad stuff and let Apple handle the easy spam filtering.
    True blocking calls should go to carier while spam should be handled by the user preference via software.

  • How do I block private calls?

    How do you block private calls?

    I've been using an app called Mr. Number for about 7 years.  It gives you the option to send private numbers, blocked numbers, spam, specific area codes, everyone but certain numbers,  and specific folks to 1)voice mail or to 2) it auto hangs up on them so they can't leave a vm. It also blocks their texts.
    Many new Android phones come with the blocking feature in the phone settings.  But it will only send calls to voice mail.  If you don't even want to know they called use Mr. Number. I give that app 4 stars (it used be 5 stars when it also had to great caller id)   Not sure what phone you have but Mr Number is available on multiple platforms.

  • How do you receive a call on your computer with the new OS X?

    How do you receive a call on your computer with the new OS X?

    The following quotation is from http://www.apple.com/ios/whats-new/continuity/
    The link shows a picture of the Notification. Below it says there is "nothing to set up" but I believe that you need to have FaceTime activated (signed in) on both devices as there is a setting on iPhone/iPad in Settings > FaceTime where you turn "iPhone Cellular Calls" on/off.
    Sometimes when your iPhone rings, it’s not where you are. Maybe it’s charging in another room. Or it’s buried in your backpack. But your Mac or iPad is sitting right there. Now you can make and receive phone calls on those devices as long as your iPhone running iOS 8 is on the same Wi-Fi network. Incoming calls show the caller’s name, number, and profile picture. Just click or swipe the notification to answer, ignore, or respond with a quick message. And making a phone call from your iPad or Mac is just as easy. Simply tap or click a phone number in Contacts, Calendar, or Safari. It all works with your existing iPhone number, so there’s nothing to set up.

  • On an IMAC, how do you block other users id showing up on your wifi settings?

    On an IMAC,
    how do you block other users id showing up on your wifi network?

    Can you clarify what you mean?
    If you're seeing multiple wifi networks as well as yours, that's normal. It will display any networks within range. It doesn't mean you're connected to them or that they're on your network.

  • How do you block junk mail

    How do you block junk mail.  I sync to my work email and it is blocked on that server but I get junk mail on my phone.

    There is no setting on the iPhone. That is what I told you in the first post. Your email client on the computer probably has a junk filter built in or something you can set. The only way to filter email on the iPhone is at the server.
