Hello
I received an unsolicited message from a phone number. I deleted it.
A second copy arrived and I deleted that too.
The message says send STOP as a reply and it will be stopped but the web says this is a way to give the sender access to your account and they will charge you £3 every time.
Did i do right to delete it?
How can I block a number? The system on my iPhone iiOS 8 and Mac Yosemite will not allow it.
How can I change my status (as I do on Skype) to stop these messages safely?
Anythoughts?

Why not using ASP?
If on your webpage you have some buttons that runs at server, the server can create a web Client and using your IP address retrieved from the cession, communicate with your application (that will act as web Server).
then the web client on the web server can send request to your VB application and read a stream as response.
This web client being control by the buttons on the web page, gives you complete control over what and when the data is sent
This way you will have a complete control over the VB application from the web page.
I am not saying that the way you want to do it cannot work, ... but it seems more complicated

Go to Control Panel > Add or Remove Programs (Win XP) or Programs and Features (later)
Remove all of these items in the following order:
iTunes
Apple Software Update
Apple Mobile Device Support (if this won't uninstall move on to the next item)
Bonjour
Apple Application Support
Reboot, download iTunes, then reinstall, either using an account with administrative rights, or right-clicking the downloaded installer and selecting Run as Administrator.
The uninstall and reinstall process will preserve your iTunes library and settings, but ideally you would back up the library and your other important personal documents and data on a regular basis. See this user tip for a suggested technique.
Please note:
Some users may need to follow all the steps in whichever of the following support documents applies to their system. These include some additional manual file and folder deletions not mentioned above.

I have an iphone number connected to imessage but my iphone broke. On my mac messages app it allows me to be reached at (my phone number). Is it possible on the ipod touch 4th generation to send and receive messages from my phone number as opposed to an email address?

Only if you have an iPhone using with iOS 6 or greater using the same APple ID for Settings>Messages>Send and Recevice.

TS4268 My iMessage is "greyed" out, meaning I cannot sent messages from my phone number, only my email

My iMessages won't sent from my phone number , they go from my email . It shows my phone number as a option but I am unable to choose it as it is greyed out ... I dot know how to fix this to be able to send iMessages normally.

Hey Audreykr,
Thanks for the question. I understand your phone number is not checked and greyed out in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. It sounds like iMessage may have not activated correctly. You can attempt to toggle iMessage off, and back on. If your issue is still not resolve, see this article:

Thanks,

@Naiks, having suffered through unsuccessful synching attempts for Calendar and Contacts myself, l would suggest you try the following:
UNINSTALL iCloud control panel from your PC. Seems silly, but do it.
Go into Outlook, and look at the very top menu. Click FILE, then ACCOUNT SETTINGS, then click the popup box.
You will see a list of all your email accounts. Make sure that ONE of them has a checkmark against it. If not, select the account your want as your default, and click "set as default.
Exit out of Outlook and reboot your machine.
Now reinstall iCloud, check CALENDAR and CONTACTS, and do as instructed when prompted.
Reboot for good luck and now launch OUTLOOK. All that remains is to locate your iCloud Contacts and Calendar files, and make them your default.
IMPORTANT: Don't panic if you can't find your contacts -- they're there. Click CONTACTS and you'll see you have several available contact files. Locate the one label "iCloud" in grey type. Right-click on it, select PROPERTIES, then click the Outlook Address Book tab. Check the box that says something like "Make this my default Outlook Address Book." Keep clicking "apply" and "okay" until you've exited out of the dialog box maze.
You may have to do something similar with your Calendar files. I dd not, but if you need to, do it.
Everything should now sync pretty seamlessly.
I didn't have the exact same problem as you, but my dilemma was close enough. Good luck!

Why am I seeing outgoing and incoming text from another phone number that is on my plan?

Why am I seeing outgoing and incoming text from another phone number that is on my plan?

That is why. If you take the time to go into Settings>Messages>Send and Receive. Then uncheck everything but the phone number for each particular device, you should be alright after that.

My phone was knocked about and now iMessages are received by my contacts from my email address and not my phone number. 1- Have imessages always been sent by my email address and i somehow over looked this? 2- if not how to change it back?

diesel vdub or ANY uncertified/certified Genius
Heres my problem. I dropped my iphone 4 s and now when I send an sms, if it goes as an imessage the recipient says its coming from my email address & not my phone number. 1- how can i change it back but also 2- is imessage usually sent from phone number and not email correct? Should I re-sync my phone? Additional info: iMessage says I can be reached for messages at 2 addresses, my phone and email, the email cannot be removed. PLEASE HELP IM OCD ABOUT MY PHONE AND THIS ISSUE IS DRIVING ME MAD!
helplessandhopeful,
Hannah

To identify your iMessages as coming from your phone number go to Settings>Messages>Receive At>Caller ID and select your phone number rather than your email address. Also, the email can't be removed because this is the email address linked to the Apple ID you are using for iMessage. If you really want to remove it you have to go to Settings>Messages>Receive At, tap the Apple ID at the top and sign out.

I received a call from a +34 number while abroad, now all calls I receive come up as +34 (still abroad)

I received a missed call from a +34 number while abroad, I called it back, no answer, now all calls from (my usual contacts) come up as +34 (still abroad). I'm not in the +34 dialing code area. Is this a type of scam ?

Hi Macintoad,
I think I had the exact problem as what you are having. Having a greenbar on top while making call, and can not press any button, also the Iphone screen is blinking while a call is comming from that number and ontop of this, the contact name wont display on outgoing/incoming sms messages.
I did manage to fix it by doing this, hope this also works for you..
Backup all contact details to computer - address book.
Delete that specific contact detail (Hopefully you don't have too many contacts causing this problem - I only had 1 number causing this)from both your computer(s), and mobile me.
Add back all contact details from address book to your Iphone - I only add contacts, without any other settings (I had to reinstall all apps).
Add manually that number back to the phone, and then sync back to computer/mobileme.
Please let me know if this works...
Good luck!

Help! My iPod touch won't let me download any apps. A message keeps coming up saying "This Apple ID cannot be used for the iTunes store. Please enter another Apple ID" I changed my ID to see if that would work but the same message still comes up.

Where are you physically located?
What country's Store are you using?
The two have to be the same and the payment method for your account also has to be associated (billing address, where iTunes gift card was purchased) with that country.
Has the ID(s) worked before for purchases for this country's store?

Why is it that despite my caller ID being set as my email address, my iPhone randomly send iMessages from my phone number?

Sometimes my friends I'm in a group message with ecieve my iMessage from my email address and other times its from my phone number. I have the caller id for iMessages set as my email address so I can receive them on my iPad too but my iPhone randomly decides to still send it from my phone number sometimes. Why?

Hi,
Since upgrading my ipad and iphone software i am receiving an error message when sending emails, saying that the email address was rejected by the server.
Please advise if this is a known problem, and what is the fix.
Many thanks

Try a Reset [Hold the Home and Sleep/Wake buttons down together for 10 seconds or so (until the Apple logo appears) and then release. The screen will go blank and then power ON again in the normal way.] It is app and data safe!
