Is there a way to do this?  Perhaps a way for someone to make $$ on a app?

Is there a way to block phone calls and/or text messages on the I-phone?
I have an old annoying girlfriend that calls me at the worst times (she is usually drunk and just wants to cry). I have told her not to call, but I sorta feel sorry for her. I don't want to change my phone number nor get a restraining order. Any options?
Ideally I would like to enter her number into a "blocked" application so that she cannot call or leave annoying messages. Perhaps even a separate voicemail that says "please don't call me" and then hangs up. I also get annoyed with her texts.
I think anyone that comes up with this application (if it doesn't exist) will make a fortune.
Thanks!

Unfortunately there isn't any app like that. The only one I've heard of is only available on jailbroken iPhones, and that is against the EULA and should not be done.
Who knows if it will be available with the 3.0 firmware, because Apple opened up the doors a little on the creation of apps.

  • How can apple send out an os update that renders an important function of the software/hardware to not work? They knowingly have sent out this new os update for iPad which makes airplay nonfunctining! I need this for my business!

    How can apple send out an os update that renders an important function of the software/hardware to not work? They knowingly have sent out this new os update for iPad which makes airplay nonfunctining! I need this for my business!  I could understand if they didn't know, but it is all over the Internet! When I went in to have it revert back to os6 (which worked fine!) I was actually asked if I had done any research before I installed the upgrade! As if this is the consumer's fault for being dumb enough to fall for the upgrade!

    That is not what I have discovered, nor what others have discovered, nor what I was told when I went the Genius Bar.  I cannot remotely mirror to my MacBook Pro and it only started the day after I installed the upgrade.  We tested it with an iPad that had not been upgraded, no problem.

  • HT4480 I put my itunes dollars into itunes and am trying to use it to buy lion on my PC and I cant get it to work.  I guess I did it wrong, is there a way to get this money to use for the lion app?

    Hi, I put my itunes dollars into itunes thinking I could use it to buy the Lion App and when I went to down load it asked for the money then.  Is there a way to take the money from my itunes account?

    Hi..
    "put my itunes dollars" ...  did you redeem an iTunes gift card? I see you used the link about redeming a code.
    Three ways to purchase Lion
    One if from redeeming an iTunes gift card. Two, setting up a credit or debit card account with iTunes associated with your Apple ID, or purchase the thumb drive > OS X Lion USB Thumb Drive - Apple Store (U.S.)
    If you redeemed an iTunes gift card, make sure there is enough funds available. You need to take into account when you purchase apps including Lion, there may be applicable taxes or fees added the original purchase price.

  • Theory - Best way to store this type of data for retrieval?

    Hi everyone,
    So I'm pretty new to databases and I'm trying to figure out an efficient way to retrieve this kind of data:
    an ID that is 36 digits long
    col1 = {option1, option2, option3...}
    col2 = {option1, option2, option3...}
    coln = {option1, option2, option3...}
    I need to be able to perform queries on the data based on some concatenation of 3 digit sequences for the ID
    for example, I may want to retrieve all the records where the ID begins with '123' or where the ID begins with '123123', or '123123200', etc,
    There are going to be close to a billion if not more of these records
    the 3 digit sequences will always be a number between 000-255
    It is not necessary for me to have a 36 digit long ID, I simply chose that because it seemed like the simplest way to associate a record with its combination of 3 digit sequences.
    Like I said, I'm very new to databases. I've been doing a lot of reading on indexing and clustering and nested tables and partitions, but I'm not quite sure which of these I should pursue with this kind of data. Most of the examples that I've read about don't really deal about querying with variable precision.
    Would the best way to get this data simply be to use an 'is like' statement on the ID? If so, are there any kinds of indexing I should take a look at that would benefit from knowing that the is like statements would follow the format of <3 digits,3 digits,3 digits>? Also, at the data level, would it be more efficient to use hexadecimal to store the sequences of 3 digits since they conviently fall in the range of 00-FF? I'm just throwing ideas out there, I haven't found much help browsing the web, but maybe I haven't looked in the right place. If anyone has any ideas or places to redirect me, it would be great!
    Also, I know sometimes it helps to know the main kind of queries on the data that someone is primarily concerned about. In this case, most queries will be selective counts, for example finding the number of records whose ID's begin with '123006011' and col1='option1'.
    Thanks,

    So I'm starting to rewrite my code. I was shocked at how easy it was to implement the SAX parser, but it works great. Now I'm on to doing away with my nasty string arrays.
    Of course, the basic layout of the XML is like this:
    <result1>
    <element1>value</element1>
    <element2>value</element2>
    </result1>
    <result2>
    I thought about storing each element/value in a HashMap for each result. This works great for a single result. But what if I have 1000 results? Do I store 1000 HashMaps in an ArrayList (if that's even possible)? Is there a way to define an array of HashMaps?

  • This is a question for Someone with a UK 80gb video ipod, NOT A CLASSIC

    Can someone please tell me if this works
    Open itunes, connect pod
    Select all in ipod (not itunes library , while connected)
    Get info
    Slide the vol slider all the way to 100
    Wait a few moments for the magic to happen
    Then is the output louder, like it makes it on my 60gb ipod
    Not just full volume half way as some suggest, but LOUDER
    plugging into a recording device and watching the meter go up more is proof that my ears are not lying
    My 2nd and 5th gen ipods do this but it has no effect on a classic
    I would say around 60gb of my music is barely audible (Ripped vinyls so they are not as loud as CDs)
    which is why Im after a 80gb 5.5 gen but dont fancy wasting more money after the fiasco called a classic ipod
    Many thanks

    Why aren't they?
    I've watched your previous threads on this subject with the same trepidation as Meg St. Clair, deggie, Jeff Bryan and Zevoneer (all of whom have a lot of knowledge and earn my respect for it), but I have hesitated to respond for obvious reasons. Until now.
    You mention ripped vinyl being quieter than CDs. Perhaps you should get the level right on the ripped vinyl before importing it into iTunes. Then it would be (almost) the same as CDs.
    I use Audacity to rip vinyl to .mp3 for importing to iTunes. Whatever programme you use (if it's any good) should have similar feature to the one I'm about to describe. Once recorded into Audacity and trimmed to length, select all (of the file) and click on Effect/Amplify . A dialogue box comes up which tells you how much amplification will be applied and the new peak amplitude (dB). You should not go above the 0dB mark, nor should you "allow clipping" because you will introduce distortion and/or "clip off" the loudest sounds which will sound dreadful. (I actually amplify to a new peak of -0.3dB, that's my safety margin.)
    I mentioned before that the file would now be almost the same as a CD. A CD has a wider dynamic range than vinyl (the difference between the softest and loudest sounds) and many recent CDs also have far more bass than vinyl, which was limited in this respect due to the technology available at the time. Consequently, your ripped vinyl-to-mp3 will probably never be as "punchy" as CD, but at least there will be less difference if the dB level is similar. You could also boost the bass in Audacity - before amplifying - but be very cautious because it's a crude adjustment and if you over-do it, the result will be very tiring when you listen to the song more than once! I speak from experience!
    If you use the "boost" feature in iTunes *and it actually does something", it will probably introduce distortion, especially if you simply "blanket boost" all your mp3s by the same amount. It's a very crude method of achieving very little. it should be used selectively and with caution.
    By the way, I have a 5th gen late model UK iPod and a 160GB Classic! Whether or not it, or they both have a volume cap - live with it!

  • Is there some way to instruct iTunes to not check for updates of one of my apps?

    2nd gen ipod touch running 4.2.1 (which is the highest availble for that generation).
    I have a free weather app that just came out with an update. This new version requires at least 4.3.
    Since I have the older version of the app, iTunes notifies me of the update, which is not going to work on my ipod. (Actually I downloaded it anyway just to confirm that it wouldn't work, and sure enough, it didn't even want to start).
    So now that I have deleted that version and reloaded the old one, will I be stuck with that number 1 next to the Apps icon for ever more? Is there some way I can instruct iTunes to not check for updates of that app? Or is there some other solution that isn't apparent to me?

    You get all the new iWork suite (Pages 5, Numbers 3 & Keynote 6) free with your Mac purchase. You just need to go to the App Store and sign in with your Apple I.D.
    We warn against relying on the new iWork Apps, they really are just public betas and we are getting a number of users here with unopenable files. Bad news if this is your Masters.
    iWork '09 can be purchased as a Boxed DVD set from Amazon US$27, or online.
    It is much more usable and safer (not totally).
    LibreOffice [free] does not have as polished a UI but is actively supported, and uses open file formats as well as MsOffice formats. It also has the advantage of opening/saving virtually every known format on the planet (wish it would do Pages!) and has a usable but not briliant intgrated database.

  • HT4914 When will iTunes Match become available in South Korea? Is there another Cloud that is equally as user friendly for someone with Mac devices available in South Korea?

    When is iTunes Match available in South Korea?

    Others have asked this question as well.  If there is a plan to change this it hasn't been announced.  The best way to influence the decision is to provide your feedback to Apple here: https://www.apple.com/support/feedback/.  If enough people do, it's more likely to change.

  • I have a small production client looking to run 1 workstation running Mac Lion 10.7.3 and two work stations running Windows7 64 bit. They will all be talking to the same storage array through 8Gb FC. What is there most cost effective way to do this?

    I have a small production client looking to run 1 workstation running Mac Lion 10.7.3 and two work stations running Windows7 64 bit. They will all be talking to the same storage array through 8Gb FC. What is there most cost effective way to do this?

    Thank you for your help.
    The client has already made the jump to 8Gb including HBA's, switch and RAID Storage.
    The other question will be if they need a seperate Mac Server to run the Meta Data or are they able to use the current Mac they are running to do this?
    The Mac is a 201073 model they say with 12 Dual Core 2.66Mhz processors and 16 GB of Memory. This system is currently doing rendering. It has the XSAN Client but I understand for the solution to work they need to also run XSAN Server on a MDC.

    To whom does the email address belong to? Are you sure it wasn't an email address used in the past or perhaps one that had belonged to a friend of hers?
