How to stop sales companies calling ?

I get 3-4 calls a day on my skype number of someone trying to sell me something or put me in a lucky draw, please can anyone tell me if there is a way I can block these numbers and calls ?

Hello Zoë
1. Unfortunately not. It wouldn't be possible for the system to differentiate between a genuine business call and an unwanted sales call.
2. In Windows 7 go to your Skype window and at the top you'll find a series of options. "Tools" is fifth from the left.

I recommend that you always run the latest Skype version: Windows & Mac

How to stop an unknown caller getting thru

How do I set up my iphone 4s to stop all 'unkown caller id' from getting thru?

Suggest such to Apple:
http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html
You can block your number, same way they can. As an example, on AT&T, if you first dial *67, then the number, your number gets blocked.
Or, on your phone: Settings>Phone>Show My Caller ID>On/Off.

How to stop working of called program

Hi ,
I have called one class , but after some operation i want to stop its work . how can i do that? my code is
if(events.getSource()==tmppnlmenu.btnAdd_product||events.getSource()== tmpGUIMenu.mnuproducts_Add )
          ProductTable objProductTable = new ProductTable(tmppnlmenu.tblProduct,tmppnlmenu);
          operation(tmppnlmenu.tblProduct,1,1, cust.intProductCount);
          objProductTable = null;
I tried with null , but not get success? pls help me
--harish

One way to do it is to have a special method in the class that you want to stop that you can call to have methods in that class stop running. The called method would set a switch that the other classes could test to see if they are to stop.
objProductTable.stop();
Where stop() is a method you code that sets a switch.

How to stop sales orders from contracts from qualifying for Rebates.

We have set up rebate agreements for customers and they are working as expected.
Now our sales people want to start using contracts for some special deals for certain customers and products. But they DO NOT want these sales orders from these contracts to qualify for rebates.
Does anybody know how we can set this up or if it is at all possible?

Hi Zoya,
I got one more idea and so try it out.If it sounds foolish please ignore.Instead of going for userexits its better you go for a different sales order type whenever you refer to a contract.And make sure you assign a different pricing procedure which does not contain the condition type BO03 at all.Ofcourse this new sales document should have a different document pricing procedure.

How to stop robodial scam calls

Will the spam blocker help me?
Yesterday about 8:30EST I started getting calls form people saying they were contacting me about a payday loan that I'd applied for. I told the first caller I never applied for any such loan and hung up. I wouldn't answer the call from the second mystery number, but I got the company name (bogus I'm sure) and told them to remove my number from their list.
After the 7th call (rather, the 7th new mystery number - some numbers dialed me twice) I called and begged Verizon for help. All I could do was block 5 numbers, then pay $5/mnth to block 20 more. I declined as I'd already passed 5 and had the feeling more were coming. The only help they offered was to suggest I change my number or not answer (in case some were international, and then VZ would bill ME for the call) and the calls would eventually stop.
So 21 calls later I contacted the police for help. They said they could take a police report but thats it because they could only investigate land lines. They also said to answer the calls and tell each one I've informed the police and they'd probably stop. I did that last night around 8pm and today I'm up to 37 calls. I called VZ again yesterday evening and asked again if there was anything I could do and they again suggested I pay to block 20 more lines. But at that point I was already up to 28 (again, that's 28 unique numbers, some called several times), so I figured, why bother?
I added AVG security app to my phone so I could block any amount of calls, but of course the calls still initially come through. And it just hangs up on them, so if you're on another call, it'll hang up on that one too. I've disabled AVG and am desperately looking for another solution. I'll try the robospam blocker and see if that helps. Thanks.

Of course, I got my first spam call on my phone in over a month the day after posting this... It wasn't one of those robodial recordings though.

HT201401 How to stop iphone from calling people randomly day and night

My phone keeps going to voice control and calling random people nigh ad day ań idk how to fix this can u guys plz help me

Standard troubleshooting...
1. Remove apps from the Recently Used (multi-tasking) list...
- From any Home Screen, double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
- Swipe up on the app preview card to remove it from the list
- Press the home button when done.
2. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the slider. Slide to power off. Restart by pressing the sleep/lock button until you see the Apple logo.
3. Reset by pressing the home and sleep buttons until you see the Apple logo. Takes about 5-15 secs of button holding and you won't lose any data or settings.
4. Restore with your backup.
5. Restore as new, i.e. without your backup. See how it runs with nothing synced to it.
6. If still a problem, it's likely a hardware issue.

How to stop sales pop up add

My company owns the license for the version of Adobe Acrobat that I am using. However, every time I open a PDF a pop-up sales ad asking me to either
purchase the software or continue the trial comes onto my screen. I would like it to go away. Any help out there?

This is NOT AN ADVERT. Rather it is telling you that your license is not being used, so you are still running a trial. When the days are up, it will stop working -- so now is the time to sort it out.
If you have a regular retail license, you just need to sign in with your Adobe ID, TO ACROBAT. Then it knows you have the subscription.
If it's a company volume license, contact your license coordinator for the right steps to follow.

How to stop SubmitDiagInfo from "Calling Home"?

I do not consent to "SubmitDiagInfo" collecting and sending information without my knowledge or consent. The OSX diagnostic reporting, called "SubmitDiagInfo" is now regularly "calling home" without my knowledge and i do not consent to this. Please tell me how to turn this off. I had consented a few times to submit one-off crash reports, thought i was being helpful to Apple, but now the tool is regular collecting information and sending in secret. I will never assist Apple in the future in bug reporting because of this breach of trust. Thank you.

The application firewall i am using pops up an information windows that tell me what application is accessing the internet, the URL, ectera. Download an application firewall and see it for yourself. If you are security conscious you will find a number of security issues on your machine that you were not aware before, did not authorize, etctera.
Since this post i have documented a number of Apple applications/services that try to "Phone Home". You have to be naive to believe that your Mac only contacts Apple when you tell it to do so. It is similar to what i have documented on Windows machines. Over the past 5 years i have noticed that this "Phone Home" phenomenon increases with every next version of the OS or update. I am new to Macs, but on Windows machines, even the NTKernal will now occasionally try to contact Microsoft servers. An OS kernal has no business doing this kind of stuff. I have even observed where arbitrary ports are being used, not the typical port 80, port 443, etcetera. I thought i had spyware on my machine. Nope. On Windows NT/2000/XP, it appears Windows even has a hidden service that periodically does a type of Win32 memory injection to hi-jack other applications and use them as proxy to "phone home", always to Microsoft servers. Sounds crazy, but i have witnessed it many times over the years. Even some open source software such as Firefox is guilty of doing this kind of thing. Firefox does the "phone home" during a webpage request. What it does is initiate webpage request, interrupt and "call home" to one of several Mozilla servers, then re-initiate page request and continue. Very sneaky.
I have even observed where servers out on the internet such as Google will try to connect to my computer using a variety of ports other than standard internet ports. Sorry, you should not need anything but port 80 to use Google and surf the internet. Use a good application firewall and you can observe this yourself.
I think everybody who takes privacy seriously should start looking into this. Where is the security community on this? It appears to be compromised, talks about everything else but this elephant in the room that i have witnessed the past 5 years. The prevailing propaganda is that this is all benign. I program software for a living and know you do not need to code software that makes regular connections with servers on the internet without user knowledge and explicit consent. This is unethical and possibly a common law crime.
Anyways, it appears that this "Phone Home" phenomenon is "by design". Fortunately there are products out there that allow you to deal with it. Unfortunately it is only a quick fix, it does not resolve the underlying security issue.

How Does One Stop Telemarketer Calls?

I would like to know how to stop telemarketers from calling. I am and have been on the National Do Not Call List and have an unlisted number, yet we have been getting calls all throughout the day and night. I thought the government stated no one is allowed to call someone on the Do Not Call List or they could be fined, yet the calls are recorded with garble or music, so how can anyone do anything? If you call Verizon, they state they are allowed to call between the hours of 9-5 or something like that, but I am on the Do Not Call List, so they are not allowed to be calling, yet they do. I file the complaints with the National Do Not Call site, but I don't know what else to do. I even asked the Ellen DeGeneres & Anderson Cooper show to try and help. How can these places be fined when they can't even be stopped?
Can this be linked to unlimited phone access where these telemarketers are calling and then somehow connecting to your number to make free calls or something else??? Otherwise what is the purpose of them calling and only having music or garble play?
For instance (without listing their numbers), on 2-21-13, the same number called me at 3:31, 3:42, 3:53, 4:05, 4:33, 5:05, 8:45 and 8:47 at night and that is just the ones I marked down for that day - there could have been more.
Then today, one number called at 10:45 and 11:04, and then another one called at 11:51, then another called at 12:15, then another called at 12:19 & 12:53 and then again at 5:35 pm, and then another called at 2:45 and 3:01, and then yet another one alled at 3:38 pm...and the last one SO FAR was the one at 5:35 pm. I could have missed marking some down too, so there could possibly be more.
This is crazy and shouldn't be allowed since I thought the National Do Not Call List was made for this reason to protect this from happening to us. Is it just Verizon or maybe unlimited access customers or what???
Any suggestions??? Thanks.

How can I stop a recursive call?

Or is that possible? That is, can I stop the recursion before the stack is empty?
I am trying to test for cycles in a graph, and print out only the edges which make up the cycle in the graph using depth first search. Or perhaps someone has some better ideas of how to do this, without attempting to do that clumsy "stop a recursive call" method?
To explain what I was thinking of: Go trough edges until a visited one is encountered (x). Then return back and terminate when we are back in that (x) edge. The (x) edge has a lable from the edge which called the dfs on the (x) edge, so that (x) is included in the cycle.
tnx in advance!

Or is that possible? That is, can I stop the
recursion before the stack is empty? You can stop recursion whenever you want merely by not doing the recursive call when some condition holds. (Obviously.)
For 'find a cycle', you want to keep the search going until a cycle is found, and then collect the path on the return trip.
Here's a simple example:
Assuming a Node class
class Node {
   public List<Node> children=new ArrayList();
   public boolean visited=false;
   public Node() {
}this code will return a list of nodes on the cyclic path (plus the path from root to the start of the cycle):
/** returns a node path ending with a cycle, or an empty list if no cycle found */
List getCycle(Node root) {
    List cycle=new ArrayList();
    findCycle(root, cycle);
    return cycle;
/** returns true if cycle was found, puts the path in the 'path' argument */
boolean findCycle(Node n, List path) {
    if (n.visited) { // recursion bottom: cycle found
      path.add(n); // add first element to path
      return true; // terminate recursion
    // base case
    n.visited=true;
    for (Node ch : n.children) { // iterate over children
      // depth-first recursion. returns true if cycle is found through child 'ch'
      if (findCycle(ch, path)) {
        // if there is a cyclic path going through ch,
        // the path also goes through n
        path.add(n);
        return true; // terminate recursion
    return false; // no cycle through n
}This example returns the first cycle found, you may want to return all cycles, the shortest cycle or some variant thereof.
You would probably want to get rid of the path before the start of the cycle.
And by using the method call stack, the longest (non-cyclic) path in the graph cannot be longer than the maximum size of the call stack.
So 'stopping a recursive call' need not be that clumsy. Although it can be tricky to get all the details right, especially at first.

How to stop system from doing calculation of pricing in sales order?

Recently I am working on how to stop consecutive entries of identical condition type in pricing of a sales order. For this I have written a custom routine to track multiple identical condition type. If it gets multiple condition type then system shows error message. But after this while pressing back button of the SAP Screen System is doing the corresponding calculations for all the condition types. I want to stop this.
Is there any way to do so that I can stop the system form doing the calculation. Or is there any way to disable back button of the SAP Screen. Basically I want to stop a user from posting a sales order if he enters multiple identical condition type in a sales order.

Transaction VOK0
If you go to Condition Type -> Access Sequences and highlight the relevant access sequence and navigate to folder "Accesses" there should be a column which indicates "Exclusive". This check box should be active. This will prevent duplicate condition types.

How to stop the call summary display on home screen?

How to stop the call summary display on home screen?

Here are the solutions I can think of (if no one here responds with something better):
1. Open Settings and then Phone within the Settings screen and see if you can find a setting there for the call summary. The Phone submenu under Settings would be the most likely place.
2. Open Settings on your iPhone and go through each item including all of the items within each main item. Within about 10 minutes you should be able to get through all of the settings and find the setting if it exists on your phone. There is no such setting on my phone but it is possible that Airtel has a custom menu with that.
3. If you still haven't found it, you could check a) Airtel's support site and/or b) an Airtel specific forum.
4. If still no luck, I would call Airtel and ask again and if you get the same response ask for the location of the setting (or to speak to someone who can tell you).
Good luck.

When I'm using the Voice Memo for recording, it stops when a call or message comes in. How can I stop this?

I am trying to use the voice memo to record. I find that the recording stops when a call or text comes in even though I've 1- put the phone on silent, 2- Put it in Do Not Disturb mode, 3- taken all apps out of the Notification Center.
Does anyone have any information on how to use this app more efficiently?

putting the device in airplane mode will send all the calls to voicemail and you shouldnt get any texts until you turn the feature off

Since upgrade to kitkat, getting "312" calls on phone. How to stop them?

Lets put an end to these calls, Nitzie! Do the calls come from more than one number? Have you answered these calls to see what the purpose of the call is?
You can also block these numbers from calling you with our Call and Message Block. Here is how: http://vz.to/MqEgqB
