How do you stop a message filter vacation message from responding repeatedly to a failure message?

I set up a message filter for a vacation message while I was away. The problem is, every time I get a junk message (like from LinkedIn, Facebook, etc.), it sends the vacation message, then gets a failure message, and then responds to the failure message. This keeps happening until I can get into my settings and shut off the filter. Sometime I come back to over 200 failure messages because it just keeps sending the auto response over and over.
Any suggestions on how to avoid this?

the support article [[Vacation Response|here]] says use the setting provided by your service provider on their web site for a reason.
To answer your specific question, you will need to check the from email is not one of those junk email addresses (perhaps an address book could be created for them and the filter check it accordingly. You filter will also need to check the message is not a delivery failure notification and in truth will still bury someone is vacation responses because it sends them one every time they email you.

  • How do you stop the Knock Out title slide from moving?

    I'm attempting to stop the Knock Out slide from moving. I simply want the title to pop up and remain in one place. Right now, the title pops up and then moves across the screen. Appreciate any advice anyone has!

    Not sure what you're doing but my Knock Out zooms into the screen and eases to a stop. It then sits there until the end. It looks like this at the end:
    Is that what you have?

  • How do you stop kids deleting videos and music from ipad

    Hi,
    I'm able to check a box in restrictions so apps aren't deleted but there is no similar function to select for music and videos.
    I'm Getting fed up with my special needs kids being able to accidentally delete them.. its happened twice today, 25GB of videos accidentally were removed.
    How can we lock them so they can not be deleted?
    If there is no function, perhaps Apple needs to create one.
    thank you
    jasmum

    You can make a password protected folder of the apps your children use to access music and videos so they are not on the screen. They will not have access to music or videos. But I'm sure your problem is they want to see videos, hear music, etc. ...
    If they don't have them, maybe they'll lose interest and play with games specified for them. Even then, though, they can probably delete those, too.
    To my knowledge there are no apps to prevent your children from deleting music and videos. However, you are not alone. You might want to google it. If enough parents inforn Apple... Look what they've been doing for vision, hearing impaired, users with physical mobility problems, people on the autism spectrum, and others with learning issues/disabilities, etc. Here are a couple of ipad parents with similar questions/requests.

    If your ipad 2 is older than 90 days you do not have phone support. If more than a year, it's out of warranty. If you're near a genius bar make an appointment. Otherwise, I suggest the following solution.

  • Is it possible for your iphone to be hacked so that someone can text message people in your contacts (and send pictures)? If so can you trace the hack and how can you stop it?

    Is it possible for your iphone to be hacked?so that someone can text message people in your contacts (and send pictures)? If so can you trace the hack and how can you stop it?

    As has been said, the iPhone itself can't be hacked this way, as far as anyone currently knows.
    Your Apple ID is another story. Any kind of online accounts can be hacked, and Apple IDs are no exception. If someone hacks your Apple ID, they could see all the data in the associated iCloud account, such as contacts, and could send those contacts texts that would appear to come from you. If that were to happen, you should see an alert on your other devices that your Apple ID is being used with Messages on a new device.
    If you have not seen that alert, it's unlikely that this problem is occurring due to such a hack. In that case, it would be more likely that either someone has gotten their hands on your phone, or some other Apple device registered to your Apple ID, and has used it to send that message. Or that the person claiming you sent a picture is lying for some reason.
    If you believe your Apple ID may have been hacked, you should change your password immediately (at appleid.apple.com). You should also seriously consider enabling two-factor authentication on your Apple ID.

    on Game Center how do you stop players from seeing the last time you have played a game? Or the last time you signed in.

    hello, this should be addressed in a later version of firefox. as a workaround in the meanwhile you could try this: enter '''about:config''' into the firefox location bar (confirm the info message in case it shows up) & search for the preference named '''browser.sessionstore.resume_from_crash'''. double-click it and change its value to '''false'''.

  • How do you stop downloading itunes match songs to iphone 5

    How do you stop downloading itunes match songs to iphone 5?
    Cell data is turned off but it is still downloading.

    When you initially enable iTunes Match on any iDevice it is wise to let it operate for a good period docked or with good WiFi.
    Best route to stop it if essential is to switch off iTunes Match.

    How do you stop preview from doing AutoSave?
    Preivew keeps saving different copies of a pdf I am working on (highlighting/annotating), and I now only have 1GB left on my harddrive (had 180GB left).

    If you are using Safari, look at Safari > Preferences > General and make sure 'Open "safe" files after downloading' is not checked.  Other browsers should have a similar setting in their preferences.

  • HT4915 How do you stop syncing address and calendar to iCloud? I only want to sync  from my computer to iPhone.

    How do you stop syncing address and calendar to iCloud? I only want to sync  from my computer to iPhone.  This is because I cannont upgrade to Lion and I do not want to get duplicate contacts when I sync from the computer 10.6.8 to my iPhone iOS5.  You should not upgrade to Lion upless you have 4GB of ram. Lion does not support rosita so all your old programs will not funtion and you have to repurchase all old software the is working fine.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Settings > iCloud, turn off contact and calendar syncing.

  • How do you stop music while video plays???

    Ok...so here's the deal. I'm making a movie that is a combination of pictures and videos. It's basically like a slideshow type thing, but now I'm adding video to it. I've already put all the pictures and transitions and music that goes along with that, but now I'm trying to add my videos in between some of the pictures. I'm trying to figure out if there is a way to stop (like completely stop/cut the music clip) while the video is playing, then resume the music at the end of the video at the point where it was stopped before. Does that make sense? I don't want to simply lower the volume of the music...I want to completely stop it so you can hear the audio of the new video. I have tried trimming the audio, but I haven't figured out how to get it to do what I want. So basically, how can you stop music while a video plays and then resume that same music at the end of the video from the point where it was cut?

    So i think you have clips with their own audio that you want the added music track silenced during those clips alone. Click on the clip in question, go to inspector, audio, "Ducking" and X that box "reduce volume of other tracks" and pull it to 0%. i think that will do it

  • How do you stop mobile sites from loading in safari automatically on my iPad? I can't log into mobile me because of this.

    How do you stop mobile sites from loading in safari automatically on my iPad? I can't log into mobile me because of this.

    The me.com website is not designed for or intended to be accessed by iOS devices. Apple provides support in iOS or seperate Apps for accessing all aspects of MobileMe except for the Accounts section.
    Use MobielMe as intended and you'll have no problems.
    See: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1673
    Even if you use a different browser to get access to me.com on iOS, you'll find most of it is unusable.
    Other websites that present you with the mobile version have been programmed to do so by their developers. They specifically look for users accessing from 'mobile' devices and switch to the mobile site. Many such sites provide a link to go back to the 'full' site, if not, there's not a lot you can do except use a browser that can pretend not to be a mobile browser.
