Possible to block a contact on iPad without blocking on iPhone?

I Want to prevent some contacts from reaching me on my iPad, but I don't want to block them from my iPhone. Is this possible, or will blocking them on my iPad block them across all my devices?

Hi, thanks for the reply. I know how to enable blocking, I'm just not sure the result.
are you saying that by blocking a contact on messages on my iPad, that it will not block the same contact on FaceTime On my iPad? In other words, I have to block them on both apps?
so does that mean that the contact will still be able to message me and FaceTime me on my iPhone, even if I have blocked them on my iPad? That is the desired result.
unfortunately Apple is not particularly clear on this point, and the disclaimer on the app suggests it will block the contact wherever it appears at the cloud level ...

  • I have an IPad with a Restriction code that we cannot remember.  Is it possible to delete and restore the IPad without the code?  If not how do I figure out the code or how t? o remove it?

    I have an IPad with a Restriction code that we cannot remember.  Is it possible to delete and restore the IPad without the code.  If not how do I figure out the code or how to remove it?

    The only option is to wipe the device clean and restore it to factory settings.  Hope you have a backup.
    Follow the instructions in  iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137 to restore the device to factory settings.
    Once you have setup the device as a new one, you can then sync it back with your iTunes account and all your music, apps, contacts and any other content sync'ed with iTunes will be loaded on the device. Any content that is stored only on the device and not sync'ed with iTunes, like app logins or data, will be lost during this process. Be forewarned that this is a long process and can take a couple of hours or more to complete. This can be painful, but it is necessarily so to prevent users from working around the security settings. After the restore is complete, you can setup a new Restrictions passcode. Make a note of the passcode to avoid this situation in future.

  • TS2734 Is it possible to find an IPAd without find my Iphone activated?

    Is it possible to find an IPAd without find my Iphone activated?

    One word.  NO
    Sorry.  If you have lost your iPad, immediately go to iTunes and change your Apple ID password.  Change your email passwords.  Change the passwords you use for any app tied to a credit card.

  • Is it possible to deauthorize or unsync an iPad without wiping it and starting over?

    Is it possible to deauthorize or unsync an iPad without wiping it and starting over?  My ipad3 and my ex's ipad2 are both synced with my computer.  I have to sign in under his id to update the apps purchased thru his ipad/id (and vice versa) and we'd like to be rid of the connection.  My apps are on his ipad and his are on mine.  We synced both through my computer.  Is there any way to separate the two?

    Once I deauthorize his device from my computer, can he still use the apps under my ID on his ipad?
    I am not familiar with how you would deauthorize his device from your computer, aside from wiping his iPad and not allowing him further access to your account or your content. If he knows your password you need to change it.
    Also, does deleting his apps from my ipad and computer affect the apps from his ID on his ipad?No, his content should be fine on his iPad.

  • How to sync back my contacts from iPad and iMac to iPhone and MacBook

    All my contacts on my macbook and my iPhone got erased but I still have them all of them on my iMac and iPad so I am wondering how to sync them all back to all my devices???
    Can someone help me?
    Best,
    Oscar

    You should be able to copy/move the contacts from your iMac to your MacBook using the migration assistant. It is under Utilities in the Application folder. One they are on both our your computer, just syncing your iPhone and iPad to its respective computer will keep them in sync. I myself also sync my contacts with my Gmail contacts. Doing so will keep your two computer synchronized too.

  • If I purchase something on AppleTV is it possible to access it through my iPad without syncing?

    Hello I recently purchased an iPad 3 with retina display and I'm using Apple TV and I've just bought a movie on there was wondering if it's possible to access the movie through Apple TV without syncing my iPad to my MacBook Pro? I guess I'm wondering if iCloud has a hub where it shows everything that you've purchased like Apple TV but is accessible on iPad iPhone etc to stream everything with ought having to sync it to the device itself. Sorry If this is a rather basic question I am a new user to all of this thank you for your help I appreciate it!!

    If you purchase iTunes content from any device, you should be able to download it to another device from the Purchased section of the itunes app/store. There are some restriction on Movies/TV content based on locale, but in the US it shouldn't be a problem.
    On teh iPad, open the iTunes app. Tap Purchased (bottomof screen), then Movies (or TV Shows, etc.) on teh top menu. You can view all of your purchases, or just those not on the iPad, as well as sort by Most Recent or Name.

    What To Do If Your iDevice or Computer Is Lost Or Stolen
    iPhone, iPod Touch, and iPad
    If you activated Find My Phone before it was lost or stolen, you can track it only if Wi-Fi is enabled on the device. What you cannot do is track your device using a serial number or other identifying number. You cannot expect Apple or anyone else to find your device for you. You cannot recover your loss unless you insure your device for such loss. It is not covered by your warranty.
    If your iPhone, iPod, iPod Touch, or iPad is lost or stolen what do you do? There are things you should have done in advance - before you lost it or it was stolen - and some things to do after the fact. Here are some suggestions:

  • Call anyone in your contacts using Siri without unlocking the iPhone

    Not sure if this is a known bug but today I tried calling any contact from my friends mobile with out unlocking it.
    1. Phone is locked
    2. Open siri
    3. "call Richard"
    4. It started ringing Richard Stewart mobile.
    In second instance
    1. Phone is locked
    2. Open Siri
    3. "Call Ram"
    4. Siri returned me two contact "Ram sir" or "Ram Mohan"
    5. I select "Ram Sir"
    6. It started rining the mobile number of "Ram sir"
    Also I tried to create a calendar event using Siri. It created a calendar event and it also showed me all the events scheduled in the calendar for that day with out unlocking the mobile. It showed birthday reminders and also few personal events scheduled in the calendar.  Is that expected?

    It is a setting as to whether to let Siri have access when the device is locked. That is stricly up to the user, since it is not your phone.

  • IPhone Apps must also run on iPad without modification, at iPhone resolution, and at 2X iPhone 3GS resolution

    Hello everyone,
    I am new at developing apps and my first try at submitting was rejected for the reason I put as the title of this thread. I submitted an appeal and am waiting to hear back. My question is, how do I make the app compatible with iPad even though I designed it only for iPhone? Also, is it absolutely necessary that it also work on iPad or does anyone know of a way around this? When I uploaded it, I selected that it was for iPhone use and not iPad.
    Thanks in advance for any help.

    Not sure how to edit the original post but it looks like I will have to make it compatible with iPad before it can be approved. Anyone with any experience with this?

  • Is it possible to share aps between my iPad and iPhone, I have tried several methods yet I still get charged if I download an app I already have on my iPad.  many thanks, Alex

    Is it possible to share apps from my iPad onto my new iPhone 4. I have tried several suggestions from the net but still get charged when I download an app to my phone that is already on my iPad.  Many thanks,  alex

    Greetings Alex,
    You should be able to download the exact same app from the iTunes store to a different device at no extra cost.  Its possible you might be downloading an iPad only version of an app you happen to have on your iPhone although I'm not familiar with an example of this. 
    If you are being charged:
    1. Make sure you are using the same iTunes Store account (AppleID) on both devices.  Your purchases are tied to the AppleID so if you don't use the same one to download the app that you used to buy it the first time,  you'll be charged.
    On the device you originally bought the app in question:  Go to Settings > Store -- note the AppleID here
    On the device you re-downloaded and were charged on:   Go to Settings > Store -- note the AppleID here
    If these AppleIDs are different then you have your answer.  You are making purchases with two different accounts so logically you've been charged twice.  Decide which AppleID you wish to use from now on and on the device which does not currently have that ID and tap on it in the Store section of the settings and login with the other AppleID.
    If these AppleIDs are the same then something is going wrong in the process.  Contact iTunes Store support email to have them take a peek: http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/
    Hope that helps.

  • How to stop posting without blocking purchasing

    Hello,
    Is it possible to stop posting in SAP FiCo without blocking purchasing?
    Problem:
    Due to a reorganization of business units I have to change the control parameter 'Business Partner-type' from internal to external, I also have to change the 'reconciliation acct' for the vendor (also from internal to an external account). Problem is that I have to wait until all the invoices are cleared (from the internal partner) and in a mean time I 'll have to save all the invoices for the external partner and ..............the purchasing has to go on.
    The solution I advised was using the 'Posting Block' but...........this function also blocks the purchase!
    Does anybody has a solution?
    Kind regards.

    Hi,
    Do you want to stop all FI/CO postings? You can use OKP1 transaction to block certain processes in SAP or, as suggested by Alex, simple block of FI period.
    Regards,
    Eli

  • Does iCloud back up photos, and can I view iPhone pictures on my iPad without syncing camera rolls?

    I know this question may have been asked but please bear with me:
    I have a iPhone 4S ( 16 GB ) and a iPad Air ( 32 GB ). Most of my photos are taken on my iPhone and I can view these photos on my iPad via the Photo Stream (which I know will only display photos for 30 days). I wanted to delete some photos off my iPhone to make room, but how can I still view these photos on the iPad without syncing my iPhones's camera roll to the iPad. Shouldn't iCloud be keeping these photos (and I heard that photos, music and maybe documents don't take up iCloud space, just other non-iTunes stuff count towards iCloud storage space but I don't know if that's right).
    I just wants to know how iCloud works because what is the point of downloading other iOS devices' camera rolls onto my iPad and then risk my iPad runningout. Of space. Wouldn't I just run into the same problem? I thought iCloud would backup photos so if they were to be deleted off one iOS device, it can still be accessed on another iOS device (something like a Photo Stream but I ninnies it only lasts 30 days).

    Hey! I am moving from icloud backup to itunes backup and i have not checked photos, contacts(see 1st image below) to sync to itunes. And on my phone in settings under icloud photos, contacts, notes and other stuff are selected(see 2nd image below). Does this mean i am backing up apps(and app data), music, settings to itunes but photos are still backed up to icloud. If not what should i do to back up my photos?
    Could you please help me with this i am a little confused. Thanks!

  • Delete skype contacts on ipad for all devices/acco...

    Hi there,
    Is it possible to delete Skype contacts on Ipad for the whole account (used on different devices)?
    If I make a change in my skype account on my Ipad will it be changed directly for the rest of my devices/account or just for my Ipad? 
    Hope someone can help me!
    Thanks

    thank you for your response!  I know this sounds crazy, but I don't have the contacts on my computer - I was, for the first time, inputting them onto my iPad.  If that was the only place they were saved, is there any way to restore them?  Do you know why this would have happened and/or how I can prevent it from happening in the future?  I appreciate any help you can offer...

  • Is there a way for me to block a page within a website without blocking the entire site?

    I want to block some kids from my son's Facebook profile, if I block them using FB he will just unblock them. I've tried altering the hosts file but it doesn't work unless I block FB entirely. Is there a way to block pages from a site without blocking the entire site?

    Not sure but try this:
    -> Go to your son's page on Facebook
    * Right-click empty space within the page and click '''View Page Info'''
    * In the '''Page Info''' window, select the '''Permissions''' panel and change the setting to '''Block''' for all options
    * Close the Page Info window -> Restart Firefox
    Check and tell if its working.
