HT5457 how can I block a number on my iphone?

I'm trying to block a number on my iphone, can somebody tell me how o how can I use "do not disturb"?

Some carriers offer number blocking services, so you'll definitely want to check with your provider.  Number blocking is always a carrier-based function, not a hardware function.  One "trick" that I have found effective is to assign a "silent" ringtone to specific numbers that you don't want to hear from.  The call will still come in, but you won't be bothered by it.  If you need to physically stop the call from coming through, you will need to call your cell phone provider.

  • How can I block a number that calls me persistently every single day but only shows 3458  it does not show the full 10 digit

    how can I block a number that calls me persistently every single day but only shows 3458  it does not show the full 10 digit so on your block page will not let me block it!!!  So frustrated and I am not answering it with all the hackers out these days I don't want to give them access to my phone.

        @lottsandy
    I can understand your frustrations and concerns with receiving these unknown calls!  I would love to assist you with preventing these types of calls.
    Sounds as though you're receiving some type of telemarketing call.  Although you're unable to add the shorter numbers to your call block list, you can definitely add your number to the National Do Not Call registry http://1.usa.gov/1whONxp.  I hope this will help prevent those unwanted calls.  Thanks!

  • HT3406 how can i change imei number of my iphone ?

    how can i change imei number of my iphone it is fectory unlock but saying put a vilad sim to activate your iphone ?

    So, put a valid sim in the phone.
    You cannot change an IMEI number since it is assigned by the manufacturer at the time of manufacturing. It is assigned to each handset made and is an unique code.

  • This is my activition id,now i lost my iphone 5s how can i find emie number of my iphone?

    I lost my iphone 5s with cartun and invoice.i remember my iphone activate 3 feb, how can i get my phones IMEI number?
    <Email Edited by Host>

    Do your other devices use the same appleid as your macbook?
    Just asking cos they may log you in automatically and you may not be seeing the correct info.
    Apart from that, sorry I don't know.  I guess you'll have to contact Apple and get it from them.
    Did you sign up for apple care?  The emails regarding that will have the serial number listed.

    How do i block a specific number with iphone 4 and cricket service?

    Contact Cricket. Number blocking is a feature from your wireless provider,
    if they offer it.
    Or make a contact for that nuumber, assign it a silent ringtone and no vibration.
    Call will still come in, but you will not hear it.

    Not natively on the phone. Contact your carrier, they are the ones that handle call blocking. Some carriers charge for this service.

  • How or can i block a number calling me

    how to or can i block a number calling my i phone 4.
    i am on o2 ireland network.

    Even a $30 cellphone can block voice or txt from unwanted callers, why Apple missed this feature is a total mistery for me.
    The only working solution I found is:
    - make a file with Garageband (some seconds of full silence);
    - send it to iTunes;
    - download it on the iPhone's Ringtones;
    - save the callers in your Contacts;
    - use that silent ringtone as a specific ringtone for the unwanted calls, but only after you saved the callers in your Contacts of course!  
    But still ...you can't set the iPhone to not Vibrate for those specific callers...

    HOW CAN I BLOCK SMS MESAGES FROM AN SPECIFIC PHONE NUMBER ON MY I PHONE5, THANKS

    You can't. Contact your carrier and ask them if they provide such a service. Most carriers do not, unless the text messages are threatening or harassing, but you can ask.

        Hi there irock2! I know how pesky those unwanted calls can become. Since the calls are not coming from a normal 10-digit American number, it may be someone international attempting to reach you. Our Usage Controls http://bit.ly/plz3pA feature offers the ability to block international calls, and even calls from private and restricted numbers. We also offer the option to change your number at no charge through My Verizon http://bit.ly/WJbRNG if you'd like.
    Thank you

  • How do I block a number on one device only, not all of them on my account?

    Whenever I block a number on my iPhone, it also blocks the same number on my kids' iPhones who share an iTunes account with me.  How can I separate who I block to just my phone and not theirs? 

    nesscal,
    Signing out of iCloud on your kids' phones will prevent numbers that you've blocked from being blocked on their devices.
