Is iMessage blocked in the UAE, same as FaceTime?

I can't seem to get the iMessage work on my iPad 2. I can't get pass through the Signing part. An dialogue box says network error connection.

Just an update. iMessage is not blocked in the UAE. When I tried it yesterday, it just worked. I don't how and why I had problems from day one iCloud was released.

While my friend was setting up his iphone, i used my icloud. So now, when i send him a message i get the exact same message from myself. How do i fix this?

While my friend was setting up his iphone because i had recently updated it for him he needed a itunes account to use for "bump" so i could transfer his contacts back. So i used my itunes and icloud account to sign in so he could download that because he didnt have any of those accounts. So when i logged in he was basically me, my name was his phones name aswell. Well i used "bump" his name was the same as mine. I got the contacts to work but now every time i send him a text message, (imessage) i get the exact same message from myself. How to i unverify him off of my icloud so i can be the only one using it?

The fact that the problem only occurs when iphones are texting you leads me to think that iMessage may be the culprit. The fact that it is only iphones using SPRINT however is weird. Try turning imessage off on both yours and your sons phones to see if the problem persists. If it does, it may be a carrier problem.

Why can't I block certain people face timing and imessageing me? I keep receiving random facetime calls every 5 minutes got to the point where I have has to turn facetime off.

I'm having the same problem, but it's also coming through on my computer, through my Apple email address. I have a very short Apple email, and little kids are trying to facetime their little friends, and then when I tell them I'm not their friend, they FaceTime or iMessage me even more, thinking that I'm still their friend, and I'm just kidding around.
I can't block the kids before they call...I don't know who they are. I want to restrict my FaceTime to only my phone number, and block all FaceTime and iMessage requests that are coming in through my email address. Can I do that?

How do I block people from texting me in "iMessage" / "Messages" on the iPad?

AARRGGGGHHHH!!
People are "texting" me on my iPad and I can't make it stop. HELP!!
I can't believe ... I'm absolutely dumb-founded ... that Apple provides no way to block harassing users. This is NOT related to a wireless/cellular carrier, this is on my wifi-only iPad.

You really have to wonder why the feature of blocking someone is not available. It would be simple to implement. Harrassing text messages, imessages, whatever you want to call them give an abuser a way to contact someone who does not want any contact. This can result in psychological damage, even in some cases suicide. If I am receiving unwanted messages from someone, I don't see why I can't just hit a button that says block. The message then can be diverted to a folder, and if I want to unblock them I should be allowed. There is not one reason I can imagine why I should not have this power. It's ridiculous and unfortunate that in this age of bullying and stalking, we aren't allowed this modicum of control over our privacy. So just when you think you have forgotten someone, or someone you love has finally removed an abusive person from their lives and moved on, all that person has to do is suddenly decide to text you day and night so that you cannot do anything but think about them. Why oh why is there no block messages from this person button as there is in virtually every social networking website? I am flabbergasted. And of course if you have a data plan and someone wants to send you spam, they can actually eat into your data usage against your will. I have to deny my family the ability to send me iMessages by completely disabling it because one nutcase won't leave me alone? Again, where is our control over our privacy? I'm frustrated over this issue, and after seeing what happened to Amanda Todd I don't see why it's not mandatory that this feature be added to every instant messaging platform. "Block User" I'm completely blown away now that I've researched this issue and I hope other people rally behind a change. How hard would it be for a 45kb update to iMessage with the ability to block users? Someday Apple is going to get sued when something terrible happens all because they refused to listen to reason. We need cotrol of our lives, and especially where teenagers are concerned. They need to be able to block unwanted attention from people who found a way into their personal lives. Go to youtube and look up Amanda Todd. It's tragic and Apple is going to do nothing about it. Anybody who is living through this sort of nightmare knows how insane it is that we cannot simply hit "block user". I also am dumbfounded!

Multiple data blocks on the same canvas

Forms newbie question:
Is it possible to have 2 data blocks with two different sets of transactional triggers (ON-UPDATE, ON-LOCK, etc.) on the same canvas?
I've got an example where i've got two data blocks (one sourced from a view, and one that is a CTL block) on the same canvas. The block sourced from the view is working fine. When I make updates, they are reflected, etc. But, i've got one field in the control block that I need to update from as well, and I can't seem to get it (or any of the CTL block items) to show up as "updateable", regardless of the set_item_property....theyre always grayed out.
Do i need to take the user to a new canvas to be able to utilize the update of the ctl field?

A second canvas is not needed. Normally, control-block items are always updateable, so there is something going on in your form to prevent it.
> I can't seem to get it (or any of the CTL block items) to show up as "updateable",
regardless of the set_item_property....theyre always grayed out.
What... Is there code someplace in the form that sets them to Enabled, false? If that is the case, then to get them working again, besides setting Enabled to true, you also must set Updateable and Navigable to Property_True. (This is documented at the end of the on-line help on Set_Item_Property.)

I have 2 iphones registered under the same appleID. Every text message that is sent to my phone, the other phone receives as well. If I turn "imessage" off on the other phone, will this solve the problem from her receiving text messages meant for me?

I have 2 Iphones, registered under the same AppleID. Mine, and my mom's. I recently (today) did the software udate for her phone, and ever since-she receives every message i send to my girlfriend, and every response that my girlfriend sends to me. I read up on Imessage, and checked the settings on both phones. On each phone "imessage"was turned on, so i turned Imessage off. Will this solve the problem of my mom receiving every message that i send and receive? Also, if i turn Imessage back on, on my phone-will i still have privacy to text?

Why not create a second Apple ID? Wouldn't that solve the problem much more straightforwardly?

I live in the UAE and i dont have the face time app on my iphone 5 and it's not showing in the settings list as well only face time mentioned in the notification center , my friends in the same area are using face time normally any advice?

Doesn't matter. That store is likely selling illegit iphones, brought oin from somewhere else.
The fact remains the UAE government does not allow Facetime on iphones legitimately sold there.

Entering selection criteria in different blocks at the same time

I want to create a form based on a master-datail-relationship in which the user
in enter-query-mode can specify selection criteria in the master AND the detail
block at the same time before executing the query.
How can I achieve this ?
Thanks in advance
STD

Create a control block with the items you want to query on. After the user presses the execute_query button or whatever to execute the query have the code :
do_key('execute_query');
In the KEY-EXEQRY trigger :
declare
where_cl_mas varchar2(1000);
where_cl_det varchar2(1000);
begin
where_cl_mas := ' ';
where_cl_det := ' ';
if :item1 is not null then
where_cl := where_cl| |'col1 = '| |:item1| |' and ';
end if;
continue like this for the master block items.
Then continue like this for the detail block with the where_cl_det block.
After creating the where clauses :
where_cl_mas := substr(where_cl,1,length(where_cl_mas)-5); --- to strip off the last ' and ' from the statement.
Do the same with where_cl_det too.
Then
set_block_property(master_block, default_where, where_cl_mas);
set_block_property(detail_block, default_where, where_cl_det);
execute_query;
See if this works for you.

Multiple master blocks populating the same detail blocks

Hey guys. Im doing something a little weirder than I usually do but I can't get it to work correctly and im wondering if any of you have accomplished this before.
I have a call center application which processes applications by either the application or by follow up. The application and follow up are each a block by themselves located on a separate pages on a tab canvas. Both these blocks are master blocks to the detail blocks which would be user_phones, user_addresses, user_bank_accounts, etc. The idea is I can use either page of the tabs and flip through either the follow up, or application master block and have it populate the user tables according to the user_id found on the master blocks. I figured I could use a when-new-block-instance trigger to switch off which block fires the on-populate-details trigger.
The problem is.... complicated. If I go to the follow up block and execute query, it brings back the right information on the detail block. The strange thing is it seems like when I move the cursor to a different record on the same block, forms is almost setting a SET_BLOCK_PROPERTY DEFAULT_WHERE action. This is un-noticeable until i go to the other master detail block. When I start using the applications block, it seems like all the detail records actually MATCH the user_id that the cursor was on in the follow up block...
phew! thats a lot of description for such a strange problem..
Anyways. Anyone encountered this before? Has anyone ever built a two master block form to populate the same detail block? Is it possible? I haven't found a thread in the forum about this subject..
Any help would be great. Thanks in advance :)

Having one detail block for two master blocks was never a use case that we considered for Forms. It sounds like you are trying to make a many-to-many relationship work with two master blocks. I suggest you think about having an intermediate block (hidden or not) that drives the detail block and make each master block drive that intermediate block instead of driving the detail block directly.

SPID BLOCKED BY THE SAME SPID

HI, MY DOUBT IS ABOUT A PROCES THAT IT IS BLOCKED BY THE SAME PROCES, THE QUERY IS GENERATED BY THE ENTITY FRAMEWORK
AS YOU CAN SEE IN THE PICTURE :(, SO IF YOU KNOW THE CAUSE FOR THIS, PLEASE LET ME KNOW U.U THANKS A LOT
NOTE: THE QUERY IS A SIMPLE SELECT STATEMENT LIKE THE QUERY BELOWS
SELECT
[Extent1].[K_1] AS [K_1],
[Extent1].[K_2] AS [K_2],
[Extent1].[K_3] AS [K_3],
[Extent1].[4] AS [4],
[Extent1].[5] AS [5],
[Extent1].[6] AS [6],
[Extent1].[7] AS [7],
[Extent1].[8] AS [8],
[Extent1].[9] AS [9]
FROM [dbo].[10] AS [Extent1]
WHERE [Extent1].[K_2] = @EntityKeyValue1

This is just diagnostic information that latching is taking a little longer than usual. Check your waittype for the spid running the query to see if it is PAGEIOLATCH% and make sure you don't have any I/O errors in the log (such as I/O operation took longer
than 15 seconds, etc) - otherwise, you can safely ignore this

IMessage sends me the same text i just sent to someone else.

After upgrading to iOS 6 last night, whenever my wife or I send or receive a text on our phones, the other person gets a duplicate. In other words, when I send a text to someone, i also get the text in my messages inbox. Or when someone sends my wife a text, i get the text as well. Two different phones with two different numbers but we do share an Apple ID. Any suggestions how to stop this?

You don't need to get your own Apple IDs. If you go into System Preferences on each device, make certain that you ONLY have the email listed under FaceTime that you want that device to receive. You can both have the same Apple ID. I have had to do this with a number of iPads, iPods and iPhones among my wife and my grandchildren as we share on Apple ID. You can delete the EXTRA email address by just clicking on them.

HT4623 I have recently moved from the UAE to UK my ipad bought in UAE does not have facetime feature ... apparently blocked by UAE agreement with APPLE? Now I am in Uk is there anyway to register through APPLE STORE my ipad and get a software update to in

I had purchased my ipad air in UAE and have now moved to UK. The software version sold in UAE does not have facetime on it. Now I am based in UK and would like to use facebook to keep in touch with friends in Uk and USA is there anyway of registering my ipad with UK APPLE to ensure I get a software update that allows me access to facetime?

Sorry. No. Part of the agreement was that devices sold in the UAE are never allowed to have facetime (probably to prevent just what you're trying to do.)
If facetime is a make it or break it, you might sell yours and buy another one, or find some other service to use. Maybe skype would work for you?

Can i buy music and apps from a UK iTunes account in the UAE?

If I take my UK-bought iPad to Dubai in the UAE, will I be able to access my UK iTunes account to purchase music and apps (and iOS updates) whilst in Dubai? I've googled the issue but there are so many different answers that I need some sort of authoriative guidence, if anyone can help please. Is it correct that Apple will not allow iTunes transactions from non-UK IP addresses?

Here in the EU, free trade between EU countries should allow EU residents to buy whatever they want from any EU country. However, Apple's iTunes/App Store restrictions effectively block this, so I'm not sure how this is happening from a legal standpoint. I believe there may be some EU folks looking into it.
It's kind of weird that I can order a physical CD from any EU country and legally buy it from the UK. However, Apple prevents this for digital downloads by having it's "must have a billing address in the selected Store's country" rule. Basically going against EU free trade rules.
According to this article, it's to do with music licensing issues, which are done on a country-by-country basis, rather than the EU as a whole. But there are no such licensing issues with apps, so why Apple imposes the same restrictions I don't know.
