I want to block ALL data services on my LG Revere prepaid phone...is it possible?

I recently upgraded to an LG Revere.  This is a prepaid phone where I pay 0.15/minute as an old Alltel customer.  I just looked at my account usage and found that my balance is dwindling QUICKLY due to data sessions.  I don't use any internet or web services at all.  I rarely text and honestly my phone is OFF most of the time because I live in the country and it truly doesn't work well out here.
Can I block all data services and just have a pay by the minute situation on this phone?
Thanks!!!

Ok, I neglected to say in my first msg that I DID get an response from my email sent on Sunday but since I got a real person on the phone that said she had fixed my problem on her end I did follow the instructions.  Today, I did what the email said which is the following:
There is a known issue with Alltel plans and the LG Revere. On your phone, you have an application called “Daily Scoop,” which is a free service, but data charges do apply. If Daily Scoop was preinstalled on your phone when you purchased it, you may turn on or off notifications for both Verizon Messages and Bonus Messages through the application directly. Please follow the steps below to stop the data session charges for the “Daily Scoop:” 
•        To access the Daily Scoop, click on Media Center
•        Then Browse & Download menu
•        Select the Daily Scoop icon
•        Once In Daily Scoop
•        Go to Menu
•        Then Options
•        Select Verizon Messages
•        You then have the option to turn On/Off – Select OFF
•        Hit CLR two times to go back to options
•        Select Bonus Messages
•        You then have the option to turn On/Off – Select OFF
You will still be able to access messages from the application, but you will not receive banner notifications on your home screen. You may choose to suspend Daily Scoop account by contacting [email protected].
I called again and the gal seemed to think that I was good to go.  Again, I won't know until Friday most likely.  They credited my account for the data session yesterday and the two today that occurred when I turned off the msg options.  I will be sending a msg to vzdailyscoopsupport next.
By the way, in order to get a real person from the 800 number, you enter your phone #, option 4, option 4, option 5, enter your security code and they should connect you to a live body.
I will update again on Friday to let you know how it's going.  Hopefully I'm on my way and maybe with this you will be too

  • I am recieving calls from a solicitor. Show up as no caller Id. I want to block all calls that do not show caller Id. Can I do that? I am on the do not call list

    How do I block all in coming calls that do not show on my caller Id. Phone says "no caller id" This particular call is from a place selling septic tank cleaner. They leave an automated voice mail. They are calling me over and over. I am on the national do not call list but that's no help. Because the caller id doesn't show anything I can't even report them.
    I remember in the past calling a number and before my call would go thru I would have to enter my phone number so the party I was calling knew who was calling them. That is what I want to do. I want to block all calls from "no caller id" "number unavailable" Just FYI my phone is an IPHONE 5 and I am on Verizon.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

        itbitybob, good day!
    Thank you for taking the time to reach out to us today. I know how frustrating it can be getting phone calls from "no caller id" numbers. We do have an option that is called Family Base that will allow you to block unknown numbers, private numbers, or caller id. This link will provide you with the full details of this option. http://vz.to/1gIklla I hope this is able to answer your question. If you have further questions please feel free to reach back out to us at any time.

    Intel iMac running 10.5.8. Belonged to a relative who has passed away. I want to wipe all data and give the iMac to my grandson. I have no install discs. How do I proceed?

    Contact Apple (call AppleCare) and for a nominal fee the discs will be replaced.  You can do that or purchase Snow Leopard (still availble from Apple for $20) and do an erase and install of OS X making the machine like a new machine.

    I have a MacBook pro that has power issues and will not start but the hardrive is fine.  I do not want to lose all of my files so I was wondering if it's possible to transfer my hardrive from a older Macbook pro to a new one if I were to purchase a new one?  Also, the software is not updated as the computer hasn't worked for about 2 months. 
    Also, if it is possible to transfer the hardrive, would my iTunes music transfer as well?  It is not saved in the cloud.
    Thanks for your help, it is much appreciated.

    You computer is probably perfectly repairable, but if you want a new one anyway, it is perfectly possible to transfer the data from the faulty one.
    But it would be a mistake to simply put the old HD in the new computer.
    These are the steps:
    Remove Hard drive from faulty computer. (very easy on Unibody MBPs, do-able but not so easy on older MBPs)
    Put it in a cheap enclosure
    Connect it the new computer
    Boot up new computer.
    If the new computer has never been run before the Setup Assistant will ask if you want to import your apps, data, settings etc from either another mac, another HD connected to the Mac or a Time Machine back up.
    Obviously chose the second option (another HD connected to this Mac) and follow prompts.
    If the new computer has already been run (so Setup Assistant doesn't run when you boot it up), you will need to use Migration Assistant...or run the installer again so that Setup Assistant runs again.

  • IPhone wants to reset all data

    Pleas help.
    Hopefully someone can help me or I am really gonna be ticked off.
    My computer died on the weekend, which I have now reloaded. Loaded iTunes again (9.02), recreated my music library, added videos, added apps, added playlists and authourized.
    When I go to connect my iPhone, it naturally says it is synced with a different computer. It wants to delete all my apps which are loaded and their data. Some of the apps are used for business purposes and the information on them cannot be copied onto paper and re-entered into the app.
    Every app and song on the iPhone is now in iTunes.
    +Can I get the new iTunes to accept the old iPhone without wiping out any data on it???+
    All data is backed up, I just need iTunes to accept the iPhone.
    Thanks for the help.

  • My phone froze in connect to itunes mode don't want to lose my data especially photos of my niece, my phone froze in connect to itunes mode don't want to lose my data especially photos of my niece

    Ok so i'm not very techi....phone connected to itunes to sync so I can transfer photos, request for upgrade i think it's 7.2.  Phone goes into connect to itunes mode and wont shift.  I have no idea if backed up to icloud and really don't want to lose photos

    if you are seeing the image of connect to itunes then all data on your phone is gone.
    you will need to do this to get the phone working again.  http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1808
    if you backup on a regular basis, then you can use that backup after the phone is done restoring.

  • I DON'T want to store any data on my MBA. I want to store all data or 90% of it on a NAS

    All I have is a 13inch Macbook Air mid2011 128gb flash storage. And the expertise from you guys able to reply to me *
    My goal is to set up a NAS ( how do I do this?)... as of writing I am intending to buy an airport express 802.11n.
    Will the airport express allow my MBA and any other device for that matter to print wirelessly?
    Can I connect sub/sound systems wirelessly to Itunes library through airport express.
    Next I want to buy an Imac to act as a desktop but also as Server. I don't want to rely on my MBA to hold data as I want it to be purely for carrying out task optimally. *So for your answers sake please reply as if I'm ignorant to computing as I am largely hoping to learn almost step by step method to carry out this endeavour of mine.
    Should the IMAC be connected to a NAS- buy a DS411j or DROBO FS? ---> and the NAS be connected to the airport express---> and the airport express is the gateway for any device including my MBA to pick up data (like to print), store away data (resumes,essays), play data (movies,music), act as a backup (imac holds storage, NAS holds a copy of storage in case imac fails or vice versa.
    this might give current context: linksys router (lounge room) ---> macbook air (m/r). my room = m/r
    this is dream context: linksys router (lounge room) ---> macbook air (m/r) --->airport express (m/r) --->nas (m/r) ---> imac(m/r)
                                                                                                                              \--->brothers laptop (his room,he can now also print wirelessly, watch                                                                                                                                           movies wirelessly from the nas, save resumes/essays to nas etc)
    That is ultimately my desireable outcome, but I am stupid and want to make sure it 100% correct and functional! Now.. is this just a pipe dream?! Can I do it with just the replys or email from you guys?Should I get someonelse to do it for me? Or is it going to be bottlenecked and this scenario won't work at all?
    If I should chop and change the supply chain management of devices, please educate me. I am not claiming to know much. But I am totally here to learn from you 5x,10x more than I wrote. Maybe it's easier if I contact you through email.
    Sorry if I wasted your time, If any one would like to help me take this challenge; break all this down to where to begin and how to move on to next step. Should I buy all of this at once. or step by step.
    Even if you read thru all this and don't have time to reply huge amounts, please just redirect me with links.
    Finally thanks

    There is a world of information in these forums if you use the search function near the top right of this page. Just type in NAS for example and you get many threads on the subject (marked with a green checkmark if it solved the question) another example would be Airport Exterme and sound system. Once you formulate your ideas better then specific questions can be addressed one at a time. You may find that a less expensive choice for a server might be a mac mini. Good luck with your project, ask more specific questions and update you systems profile.

  • HOW TO RESET MY MACBOOK PRO MD976 AS I WANT TO DELETE ALL DATA FROM MACBOOK

    how do i reset macbook pro MD976 to factory setting ? , cause i want to sell it .

    Follow these instructions step by step to prepare a Mac for sale:
    Step One - Back up your data:
           A. If you have any Virtual PCs shut them down. They cannot be in their "fast saved" state. They must be shut down from inside Windows.
           B. Clone to an external drive using using Carbon Copy Cloner.
              1. Open Carbon Copy Cloner.
              2. Select the Source volume from the Select a source drop down menu on the left side.
              3. Select the Destination volume from the Select a destination drop down menu on the right
                  side.
              4. Click on the Clone button. If you are prompted about creating a clone of the Recovery HD be
                  sure to opt for that.
                   Destination means a freshly erased external backup drive. Source means the internal
                   startup drive.
    Step Two - Prepare the machine for the new buyer:
              1. De-authorize the computer in iTunes! De-authorize both iTunes and Audible accounts.
              2, Remove any Open Firmware passwords or Firmware passwords.
              3. Turn the brightness full up and volume nearly so.
              4. Turn off File Vault, if enabled.
              5. Disable iCloud, if enabled: See What to do with iCloud before selling your computer.
    Step Three - Install a fresh OS:
         A. Snow Leopard and earlier versions of OS X
              1. Insert the original OS X install CD/DVD that came with your computer.
              2. Restart the computer while holding down the C key to boot from the CD/DVD.
              3. Select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu; repartition and reformat the internal hard drive.
                  Optionally, click on the Security button and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
              4. Install OS X.
              5. Upon completion DO NOT restart the computer.
              6. Shutdown the computer.
         B. Lion and Mountain Lion (if pre-installed on the computer at purchase*)
             Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because
                       it is three times faster than wireless.
              1. Restart the computer while holding down the COMMAND and R keys until the Mac OS X
                  Utilities window appears.
              2. Select Disk Utility from the Mac OS X Utilities window and click on the Continue button.
              3. After DU loads select your startup volume (usually Macintosh HD) from the left side list. Click
                  on the Erase tab in the DU main window.
              4. Set the format type to Mac OS Extended (Journaled.) Optionally, click on the Security button
                  and set the Zero Data option to one-pass.
              5. Click on the Erase button and wait until the process has completed.
              6. Quit DU and return to the Mac OS X Utilities window.
              7. Select Reinstall Lion/Mountain Lion and click on the Install button.
              8. Upon completion shutdown the computer.
    *If your computer came with Lion or Mountain Lion pre-installed then you are entitled to transfer your license once. If you purchased Lion or Mountain Lion from the App Store then you cannot transfer your license to another party. In the case of the latter you should install the original version of OS X that came with your computer. You need to repartition the hard drive as well as reformat it; this will assure that the Recovery HD partition is removed. See Step Three above. You may verify these requirements by reviewing your OS X Software License.

  • I want to transfer all data on my partner's AB to a separate account on my IMac. Is there a special way to do this?

    The data icludes Mail, Contacts and Calendar, as well as all other data, such as ITunes, MS Office etc.

    however, the main user account did not come across, even though I selected it to do so. I do however, have the main user account under preferences/accounts but it shows as "sharing only" Does this mean I should have turned off sharing before the migration.
    Is it shown that way on the Air?  If so, it will transfer the same way.  (I've never seen that on anything but theGuest Account.) From the Help for Accounts:
    Ross: I can't see any changes to the Air, I wasn't sure if it would be literally transferred, deleting from the Air, or just copied onto the iMac. It appears to be the latter.
    "Sharing Only: Sharing only users can access shared files in a specified location, but can’t change files on the computer or log in using the login window."
    If it isn't shown that way on the Air, the copy must have been damaged.  Try deleting it from your Mac, then do the Migration again (selecting only that account).
    Ross: ok, will do but this is sharing computers on the same network, I perhaps should have stopped that before migration but have been unable to find out how to do it. Will check further through Support.
    Or do you (did you) already have an account with the same name?
    Ross: No. The only account with the same name was the shared one, per the note above. This I understand gives/gave each of us access to the other's computer, which coincidentally we never seemed to use.
    Second problem is I have about 7gb of data that did come across, spread through Macintosh HD etc
    Not sure what you mean by that.  Was this "Other files and folders on the MBA"?  Did you select that option?  That should get only top-level items that aren't system files (there should be little or nothing there).
    Ross: Ok, during the migration it stated it was migrating 7gb. I have search finder for the volume and there are a lot of folders/files that have updated/changed at the time of the migration, as well as some new ones added. This includes a vodafone setup folder which can only have come from the Air, as I don't or have ever used vodafone. I can't find that volume though, although it is all in my account. I assume this is because the account/s didn't come across. One account did come across, called administrator which was one of two accounts with admin access. I have deleted that account now and will deselect next migration.
    I am unable to restore using time machine to get rid of it, as it has a problem doing so when there are new accounts/users.
    I don't know what you mean by "unable to restore . . . to get rid of it."  Why would you restore from Time Machine to get rid of anything?  Can you clarify?
    Ross: Well, my idea, relating to the previous note, was to restore my iMac to a time prior to the migration, so I could be sure I got rid of the first migration. I assume now, though, that anything that anything that did come across won't do so again.
    Pondini, the last question now is should have I done the migration from within my account, or setup another, so to isolate anything from me?
    and oh, by the way I appreciate the time you have spent with me. As you can see I am bit of a novice but not quite a ludite but I really thank you for your effort. What's all this about "level 7 and points?" Do you get graded by Apple for the time you spend on these things? Sounds like they should pay you but I guess that's not the idea of a community. Thanks again.

  • I want to transfer all data from my iMac to my MacBook Pro. How do I do that?

    My iMac's video card has died and I am told it is too old to replace.  They recommended transferring all my data from my iMac to my MacBook Pro.  They said attach a fire wire, and press "t' before the iMac starts up and then it will start in safe mode (or something like that).  But I don't know what to do next.  Can anyone help me?

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    When you start up your iMac holding the T key, it will start up in Target Disk mode. In this mode, the iMac's hard disk appears as an external drive in your MacBook Pro, so you can access there and recover your data.
    After starting in Target Disk mode, open a Finder window in the MacBook Pro and you will see the iMac's hard drive in the Finder sidebar, under "Devices". Select it, navigate through your folders and copy them to your MacBook Pro's hard drive.
    You can also use Migration Assistant > http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4889?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
