I currently have Imessage turned off on my phone since there is no blocking feature on the Iphone 4. If I change my phone number and turn on Imessage, how do I make sure I won't get Messages from person I have blocked?
I have the Iphone 4 but before this I had a different phone and had blocked someone from contacting me via calls/texts. Unbeknownst to me, when I got the Iphone 4, that I cannot block Imessages. I have turned off Imessage for the time being but I'm seriously considering changing my phone number. If I change the number with my carrier and turn Imessage back on, what do I have to do to ensure that any previous messages don't come through and any future messages cannot be sent?

Anyone who I had previously used iChat with, can no longer send me texts now that I have had to downgrade back to a 3Gs.
Lost my Iphone 4g, hooked up old 3gs, can't get messages from people who have me registered with ichat.
My carrier (Rogers) says they have nothing they can do about it.
Thanks in advance.Correction - iMessage, not iChat. Too early....

Hi! I just bought a new iPhone and I was wondering how i can make sure all my pictures and music will be transfered from my old iPhone to my new one?
Pictures are held in the iPhone backup. If you backup the old device just prior to the activation of the new one, then restore from that backup, the photos will be there. Music is in iTunes on the computer and when you do the restore, it will download the music from iTunes to the device during the restore. Make sure any music purchased on the iPhone that has not been transfered to iTunes on the computer is done before beginning the restore.

On starting Firefox (Windows 7), even from a cold boot I get a dialogue box with the message 'The update could not be installed. Please make sure there are no other copies of Firefox running on your computer and then restart Firefox to try again'
I have checked task manager and there are no other copies.
I have downloaded the latest version 29 Firefox but the error persists.
I have reset Firefox to default state but the error still persists.
Help please!There are a few old methods for troubleshooting this but no longer maintained:
[https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/update-failed-error-message-when-updating]
Sometimes there are other programs that might be preventing the update, as well as a need for a clean reinstall. However it is odd that this has happened two versions in a row. Does your firewall or antivirus allow updates to Firefox? [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Firewalls]
If you restart the computer does the error message still happen when you try to update from the About Firefox page?
A manual installation can always be done [https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/how-download-and-install-firefox-windows] -
Please help! haha. It keeps asking me to put the password in for my apple id on my phone but it still says my past apple id, so I know that's why it's not recognizing the new password either. On icould.com online everything is good though. I don't get it.
Not sure where you want to change it, but to change it...
For iMessage, go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, tap the ID sign out, sign back in using the new ID.
For FaceTime, do the same thing in Settings>FaceTime.
For Purchasing, do this in Settings>iTunes & App Stores.
For iCloud, you'll have to delete the account, then sign back in with your updated credentials. Before deleting the account, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll or you will lose them. To do this, open the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tap Edit, tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share, then tap Save to Camera Roll. Note: deleting the account only deletes the account and any synced data from the phone, not from iCloud. You data will be synced back to your phone when you sign back in and turn your data syncing back on (if prompted, choose Merge). -
How do I cancel Revel? I never signed up for it! The online directions tell you to go to the shortcut on your desktop, but there isn't one on my PC and I couldn't find it under "My Programs".
Hi Stan,
Sometimes people sign up for a Revel account either through viewing a friend's account, or through Photoshop Elements, etc, not fully understanding what is occurring. We can delete your account from Revel if you so desire. That would stop the update messages. If you didn't really want a Revel account this would be a good solution.
Let me know.

When I go to share photos in iPhoto 11, The photos transfer to the email I'm sending but the photo information and location don't. The older version of iPhoto did it, why not this version? What am I missing in the process of sharing via email?, Thank You.
When you share to email do you get the following dialogue:

Aperture - Sorry I'm new to this so this might be a bit long! I put together an aperture slideshow with a backing music track and some video interspersed with photos. When I exported it to put on you tube the audio backing track had not saved the fades that I had programmed when the video clips played. The video clips had audio on them that I set at one volume whilst fading the backing track. these fades didn't save on the exported version. Any suggestions please? Regards, Maxjackpete

i need help to find my imei number in i4,phone wont turn on tried all reset procedures,sim tray different to circuit board as advised by apple when it went back for warranty,cant view in devices in itunes either,any ideas?
Try doing a restore in recovery mode or what is known as DFU.
Instructions to boot into DFU can be found here:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=34v8HMC9B98
Once in DFU mode, plug into iTunes and click Restore.
I know you said you tried all reset procedures, but I want to be sure.
Note: This will delete all your data on the Phone, hopefully you have a backup. -
I can't turn off my Macbook pro since installation Mavericks
I can't turn off my Macbook pro since installation Mavericks. When I push the start/power button, a black screen appears. asa I touch anything, the desktop reappears. If I push the start/power button long enough, it shuts down, but I cannot keep doing this forever ? What's happening ? I made sure alle programs/windows quit before trying to turn off...
Hi Biouche,
the first three days after installing mavericks, the choice window you talk about didn't appear at all. (only that black screen and a forced "turnoff click" (which didn't feel fine to hear ;-) But ! AFter the first three days, the choice window did appear again, with the choice to switch off/restart/etc. so evertything back to normal (except, before the installation of mavericks, the choice window appeared already the same second after pushing the start button. Now, it's like you said, waiting 2 full seconds. still feels "scary", but anyway, at least i can turn off the macbook in a normal, safe way again. So thanks for your reaction , a nice day toU2 ;-) -
i have just switched to samsung and i have removed the sim from the iphone however i am still receiving texts rather 'imessage' on the old iphone. how do i make sure all messages only come to my new phone??
You can turn iMessage off on your iPhone. That's relatively easy. Since iMessage is an Apple product/service, I have no idea how a Samsung phone will deal with an incoming one. For that answer you should probably contact Samsung support.

I have multiple devices used by family members, how do you make sure the kids don't see Moms messages from Dad and visa versa?
Hi Roger:
Thanks for the reply. I think I figured out the problem. Apple has confused (at least in my mind) the different IDs that people can have. In the iCloud settings, they use the term Apple ID and not iCloud ID. I guess there really is no such thing as an iCloud ID. There are Apple IDs with various attributes. This is not clearly explained or easy to see (how could I look up to see if my Apple ID is associated with iTunes for example?).
I created, what I thought were iCloud IDs for each family member, but we all use my Apple ID for iTunes.
One other question - why does the syncing of Notes using iCloud require an @me.com email account. That makes no sense to me.
Thanks for your help!
