Is it possible to block texts and only receive imessages when traveling?

I am traveling to Europe, and I was wondering if there is an option to block text messages and only send and receive imessages through wifi?

iMessage over cellular will be increasingly more expensive as that would use Data while roaming.  Regular text messages do not need data. Unless you want to only use Wifi while traveling, in which case yes, set the Phone to Airplane Mode and just turn on Wifi.
By the way,  Turning on Arplane mode will prevent any calls form coming in either. Text messages an calls use the same system which you would be turning off in Airplane mode.

  • My phone isn't sending texts and only receiving some and I can't ise any Apps or Safari on cellular data.

    My Iphone 4S isn't sending texts and only receiving some incoming text messages.  My cellular data is turned on but it still won't let me use safari or any other App unless i'm connected to the WIFI at home. Any help would be much appreciated.

    I think I can help with the Cell usage issue.
    You may in fact have cell data turned on, but it may be turned off for specific apps.
    Please go to Settings...Cellular.
    First, ensure that Cellular Data is turned on.
    Next, scroll down the page and you should see a list of all your apps.
    Make sure Cell data is turned on for the apps in question.

  • Does anyone know how or if even possible to block stations and limit content on iTunes Radio?

    Does anyone know how or if even possible to block stations and limit content on iTunes Radio?  I have younger children listening to inappropriate music.  I have the iPad locked down but that doesn't seem to help.

    Thank you for your response! I just don't want to spend more time on beautifying the libsyn page via hours of dumpster diving for code hence reaching out on here about iWeb (even if it's sadly been put out to pasture). This was the response that I got from Libsyn about this:
    Hello,
    Thanks for contacting us. Just to clarify, our system's blog page templates are basic 'starting points' -- we're working now to improve our basic blog page templates to make more options available to Libsyn users.
    You might be able to use your Libsyn show's RSS feed to generate content on an iWeb page. You could do a Google search for 'convert RSS to HTML' to learn more. Here's a link for more info about generating HTML content from an RSS feed source:
    http://www.blogtips.org/free-rss-tools/
    We appreciate your feedback and suggestions. Please let us know if you have any questions. 
    Any thoughts? Btw, if it possible to 'view source code' for an iWeb page that's created or to take html code and plaster it into an iWeb page? If that's possible then I might be able to use iWeb for Libsyn.

    That suggests that the installer is getting damaged during the download.
    I'd first try downloading an installer from the Apple website using a different web browser:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    If you use Firefox instead of IE for the download (or vice versa), do you get a working installer?

    It will take longer to charge the 5G's battery than either the 3G or 4G's battery.

    Hi,
    Do you mean you are not getting SMS text messages now ?
    If so start here
    Follow the Account management options until you are offered and email contact.
    Explain the issue via email as only someone in Support can now remove your iPhone Number from iMessages if it has not "de-registered" itself correctly.

  • Ipad4 will only receive messages when it is switched on.

    Ipad4 will only receive messages when it is switched on. If messages are sent when it is switched off they never arrive. Any ideas on how to fix this please?

    The Mac uses a highly-parameterized display Driver, customized for the actual capabilities of the display. The settings are determined by a query to the display at power-on, when the Mac queries every attached display. The display name is also reported.
    System preferences > Displays > (Detect Displays) ...
    ... replicates the query to update what displays are present and their names and capabilities. So using that command when the display state is changed off to on or on to off should adjust the configuration to current state of things.

  • Stolen mac: it is possible to block it and to locate it?

    Hi all,
    My mac has been stolen yestarday. I have my serial number, ethernet ID and bluetooth ID.
    What should I do?
    I reported to the police. Is it possible in this case to block and even to locate my mac?
    Unfortunately, I haven't activate the option of iCloud "find the device" on my laptop.
    Thanks in advance

    Unfortunately, the iCloud approach was the only possibility for blocking/locating via the internet.

  • PDF forms have problems displaying text and only appears when the field is selected

    Hello,
    I created some pdf forms to distribute to the company clients. But we are having some people complaining about the text visibility. When they have work in team, the pdf that they receive from a third person often appears unfill or without text, the text is only visible when the field is selected. I need to find a solution for this because our company products are base on this forms.
    If there is any addition information that I should add to understand what is happening and how to fix it, I'll be happy to write it.
    In the company, we all have mac and the forms where created innitially in Adobe acrobat 9 pro, but we have now Adobe acropabt XI pro.
    The users have both Mac and Windows systems.
    Thank you,

    This is usually caused by the form being filled-in and saved by a Mac user who is using the Preview application to view the PDF. More information is here: http://kb2.adobe.com/community/publishing/885/cpsid_88564.html
    It is a good idea to inform your users that Adobe Reader (or Acrobat) should be used to work with the forms.

  • Is it possible to flip text and tables 90º on a page?

    Hi, I am working on a blank template word processing document that I imported from Word. It is in a US letter page layout. I am working with tables and text, and would like a few of the pages to be rotated into a horizontal format, so that the tables and text are formatted in a vertical direction.
    I can do this in Word via the text direction option, I was wondering if and how I can do this in Pages. Sorry if I'm unclear, I am not sure what to call the format. If you imagine a standard table flipped 90º on a page, and with the text flipped 90º as well, that is what I am wishing to achieve.
    Thanks,
    Walt

    Page orientation is set on a per-document basis & you cannot have both in the same document. However, you can create the same effect using text boxes & other floating objects rotated 90 or 270 degrees.

  • Is there anyway to block text messaging to my iMessage.

    I don't have texting added to my provider contract and need to prevent some folks from texting when they don't have an iPhone. Otherwise I get charge for just receiving message solicited or not. Please provide any assistance possible.

    This has nothing to do with iMessage.
    You need to contact your carrier regarding blocking all SMS/MMS with your line/number. This won't prevent you from exchanging iMessages.

  • Numeric Control - Text and Background Color changes when operating inc/dec arrows

    Hi,
    I'm developing an application that has a panel with black background and green or red numbers. I've added numeric controls and configured the text color and text background color attributes accordinglingy. I set the numeric control to hot or validate  control mode and show the inc/dec arrows, since I want to be able to incr/decr the numbers.
    The problem is that when I run the application and I hit the inc/dec arrows, then the colors inside the numeric control frame become inverted: the black background becomes white and the green number becomes cyan. I've created a callback function assosicated with the numeric control and tried forcing the text and background color, in the EVENT_VAL_CHANGED section, using the SetCtrlAttrribute() function, but to no avail. Also added ProcessDrawEvents didn't help.
    When I mouse click again outside the numeric control, then it reverts back to its original colors (green text, black background).
    Any suggestions as to how I can fix this ?
    I want it to keep its original colors at all times, even when I'm clicking the incr/decr arrows...
    Kind regards,
    pgriep
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Ok, now I see what's happening.
    The effect you are seeing is a resul of standard numeric control behaviour combined with the black bcakground: when you use arrows to increment/decrement a numeric control its value will be automatically highlighted; on the default background you'll see the white area and figures highlighted in black (white numbers on balck background). If you set the background to black the system will automatically change the colors used to highlight the text, and that's what you're seeing.
    By the way, this does not happens if you use up and down keys on the keyboard: text is not highlighted so colors are not changing.
    Additionally, this is not only valid for numerics: see the behaviour of the string controls on the bottom of your panel when you tab up to them. This effect does not happen on controls set as indicator like the big clock in the upper part of the panel.
    The only way I can see to overcome this behaviour is to hide control built-in arrows and create your own up and down buttons with which you can manipulate the numeric control. I am attaching a modified version of your project with buttons on the left numeric; sorry for the poor aesthetic:  I have used some arrow icons I had on my disk, you may want to create your own arrows with the colors and shape you prefer.
