Restrict my question to one person on this forum

How do I create a message and send it to only one person
on this forum?
Thanks!

Yep,

I tend to use the drop-in on another thread if the person has not reached Level 6 (As it is now).
Otherwise I would tend to use the the Level 6 + Lounge and a more formal "Bat Signal"
Someone dropping in to one of "my threads" is likely to be asking something about Messages or iChat and be "on Topic" in that sense.
(Of course there are days when I could argue that the drop in question does not match the specific on going question in hand  .  But I know I can be fickle).
I know I follow a fairly narrow band of topics, partly based on knowledge and partly on time restraints. I no longer have a job that gives me days off in the week which I used to use here in other communities.
I could understand someone of level 6 or higher who I consider to be more knowledgeable than myself having question that were "off topic" more often than I might and finding it a distraction.
However at the end of the day it is a matter of perception.

  • Please do not post questions about Adobe software in this forum

    Hello, welcome to the forums.
    What you may not realise is that each Adobe product has its own specialist forum, and it's very important to choose the right one. This forum isn't about products, it's about comments on the forums themselves.
    So, please go back to http://www.adobe.com/support/forums.html and choose the right forum. But first, make sure you know the name of your product.
    When you look at the list of messages in a forum, there is a box above that describing what the forum is for. Take care to read it carefully, or you may put your message in a forum where there are no experts who understand your question. Also, check to see whether there are any "FAQ" (Frequently Asked Questions) sections in the product forum, and search for previous discussions about the question you wish to ask before starting a new one.

    this is maybe because users are directly forwarded to this forum when looking for a contact in the otn-contact page. i suggest to change the contact-site and the direct the users to the "forums home" page.

  • Question for an administrator on this forum...

    Can you all add common questions to the top of the screen that are locked (similar to how automobile forums do it?) at the top of the screen and highlighted for users to read so the same question is not posted over and over again?  Add one that 8.0.2 release is available.  Not sure if this possible, but I have noticed users ask the same questions that have just been asked because they don't scroll through first to see if the question has already been started or answered.

    This is a user-to-user forum. Apple isn't reading here. Submit your feedback directly to Apple using the appropriate link on the Feedback page:

    Note that Apple didn't write the forum software and what you're asking may or may not be an available feature. For whatever reason, sticky topics are not something that's used here.

  • IBook G4 wont close!!! Please hellp Im just a new person at this forum

    hello everyone
    this is my first post as you can tell
    i was so glad i found a link to the post topic!!!
    well anyways...
    i have a ibook g4 12" 1.33Ghz and i have a problem with my screen
    well one of my friends were playing with my ibook when he dropped it and the screen opened in a line( like a 180 degree)
    the screen works just fine but on the bottom screen of my ibook there is a huge gap bewteen the screen and the lcd panel/screen holder
    and now i can't even close my ibook unless i practically sit on it
    well not sit but push really hard
    and when i do get a chance to close it the screen looks lopsided
    well i bought this ibook in South Korea about 6 months ago
    and i was wondering if i can get it fixed or fix it myself
    and can you please estimate how much it would cost
    p.s. i only have the ibook, ac adapter, battery, OS X tiger dvd install, ilife 05', and a mighty mouse
    i still have the manual for the ibook and the OS X Tiger but i dont know how the warranty paper looks like
    oh yeah... and my mighty mouse is wired and there seems to be a problem with the scrolling button. it wont scroll down sometimes and i also bought it 6 moths ago.
    can i also exchange it too???
    an estimated price would be perfect for suggestion.
    thank you everyone who reads this post
    and have a nice day!!!

    Ouch, no idea about fixing that yourself. Do you have an Apple store within driving range? If you do, likely just take it there and tell them what happened.

  • Question to Moderators of this Forum

    Hello Moderators,
                               First of all, a very LOTs of thanks, for creating such a Great Platform for the solution of an ERROR known as Community Network Forums.
    Here we can discuss regarding any error, issue related to the SAP, But i am seeing that most of my Post are being neglected and thrown-away from this  Forum to the Test and Playground environment.
    I am not in a Habit of posting my question to this Forum, first i try to take Help of Mr. GOOGLE, if i do not get any suggestion then i POST my questions to the Forums.
    I did not got any of the Solution from Test and Playground Environment, and there are certaing issues which needs to be taken care immediately, and for that People use this Forum.
    These thing are not mentioned in the Rules OF Engagement for this Forum, that the Post will be moved to Test and Playground system.
    I know in SAP we have Test System, where we can test our functinality before putting it into PRODUCTION.
    But here in test and playground system, i am seeing that my post are not been attended, and getting older and older.
    Can anybody explain, whether my Questions are irrelevant, so that they can be neglected, OR my questions are not made for this Forum.
    Please do reply.
    Thanks and Regards,
    CB

    Hi CB,
    What typically happens is that the "Report Abuse" button raises an alert for the moderators from one or more community members that some thing is not right with the thread.
    We then also look at the track record of previous complaints to gage how to react.
    In your specific case more effort should go into the question and I also recomment stating what you have managed to find or try yourself that does not work.
    Also you have duplicate posted in the past, which does not count in your favour and contributors as well as moderators dont like that.
    In the past we have rejected such posts. Now we often move them to the "Beginner's Corner" (which for the moment still has the title "Test & Playground forum" but will be changed later this year to a beginners forum for each category - I am told).
    Personally I also dont like the side affect of folks rushing in to answer easy questions over and over again and neglecting the more interesting ones (a.k.a. "flooding the forum").
    Hope you understand.
    Is there any specific question of yours which you feel should be moved back to the forum? I will take a second look at it if you do as well.. 
    Cheers,
    Julius

  • First Question, is this forum only in english?

    I use Adobe Creative Design Web Premium Suite CS 6.0 on my computer here.
    I have the second license installed om my Notebook at home.
    Now I become a new very fast WIN 7 Computer and I would install CS 6 before I work with this computer in 1..2 Weeks on this new Computer - without deactivate first here on my working Computer.
    Is that possible?
    Par example I install on my new computer CS6 with the activation Nr., then I become a message I can't install before i deactivate one license....???
    Thank you for a answer...
    Kind regards
    Kurt
    My question on the top: is this forum only in english language???

    First Answer:  No, the forums are not only in English language, but they are supported by a majority of people that do speak the English language.  If you look you will see an option to "Translate" which can sometimes be used to translate a posting to a different language.  I say "Sometimes" because sometimes it is broken and will not work and sometimes it will translate something to a form that is hard to understand.
    As far as your activations go, you are only allowed two activations at any given time.  So if you have two already activated then you need to deactivate (Help -> Deactivate) one of them in order to activate yet another machine.

  • IT 0105 subtype 0001. Assign one System user to more than one person?

    Hello, Gurus!
    We are maitaining Hr master data (infotype 0105 - Communication, subtype 0001 - System User name). We have two person: person A and person B. Person A have communication with system user C. When we communicate person B with same system user C, we gettin error:
    "ID/number already used for person A".
    The time constraint is set to 3 (Record may include gaps, can exist more than once"
    Is it possible to assign one system user more than one person?
    This condition is checked by FM CHECK_USRID. We assume, what the result of this checking can be changed from "Error" to "Alert", if we will change one record in table T77S0:
    Current value:
    GRPID=MAIL
    SEMID=SAPSY
    GSVAL=0001
    Table record after modification:
    GRPID=MAIL
    SEMID=SAPSY
    GSVAL=0002 (or any digital value, which is iffer from "0001"
    Should we expect negative consequences of similar modification?
    Please, advice.

    Thanks for explanation.
    But there is a little moment, that I can not understand ((
    We check PAI module of CHECK_USRID (include MP010530, screen 2000) and find folowing fragment of ABAP code:
      CALL FUNCTION 'RH_GET_HR_USER_SUBTY'                       "YRAK040203

    where p0105-usrty=0001 and hr_subty is equivalent field GSVAL=0001 in table T77S0. In other terms, when we are
    maitain subtype 0001, the first condition (marked bold) is always executed.
    For what the "else" condition is used, if it never be executed? If we will change value GSVAL from 0001 to 0002, theoretically, we will get "warning" instead "error", because p0105-usrty = hr_subty=false and code MESSAGE w900 WITH object_found double will be executed.
    Any ideas?
    Regards.

    I have put a post on the relevant thread on the sql/plsql forum and pointed to a blog indicating the correct route of study and marked the post as abuse. Hopefully the moderator of that forum will sort. I have also refered to ocpfraud_ww.

  • Restricting number of messages from one person

    Is there a way to restrict the number of text messages you can receive in a day from one person? There's someone I work with, I sent a text to them about something they did, and then I got bombarded by over 20 text messages which froze my messaging (on another phone, I just got an iPhone 4s). I can't totally end my relationship with this person, as they are good at their job. I just want to avoid another text message assault if possible.

    Thanks, but I've tried twice to ask they stop texting me, but they will not listen. So there isn't an app for this?

  • Personal Hotspot Privacy (or How Does One Really Turn This Off?)

    Hi:
    On my iPhone 6, under Settings>Personal Hotspot, this option is turned “Off”
    Yet on my iPad, under Settings>Wi-Fi, under the “Personal Hotspots” category, I see my iPhone 6 listed as an option.
    What gives? Even if no one else can connect to this hotspot since a password is required, it bothers me that this information is being broadcast for others to see. Is there any way I can truly turn this hotspot off so that my name is not broadcast to anyone near?
    Thank you!
    PS iOS 8.1.2 on both devices

    Hi CharPatton,
    If you are seeing this on two iOS devices that are both running iOS 8 and are both set up using your Apple ID, the information in question is most likely not being broadcast over the air from your iPhone (unless you are also seeing it on unrelated devices). Rather, this is most likely a function of the Instant Hotspot feature of Continuity under iOS 8, which allows for easy cellular data connection sharing to devices on the same account:
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support

  • Regarding receiving texts as emails:  Can you apply this setting to one individual? I want to continue to receive texts from everyone else except one person!

    Regarding receiving texts as emails:  Can you apply this setting to one individual? I want to continue to receive texts from everyone else except one person!

    Don't want to block the person, just have all his texts going directly to my email so that I can maintain a continuous record of his text contacts (rather than remain in text form).
    It appears that I must select an option that makes ALL texts go to email, which I'd prefer not doing.

    It's a Magic Mouse question. I have set this up in Preferences by ticking Swipe between pages with one finger and also Swipe between full-screen apps with two fingers,  however when I try to do the latter, the 2 finger swipe will take me from the app that I am on to the dashboard only and not to my other open apps.
    I also find that Smart zoom only works with some apps, for instance not with Word docs or email.
    How can I correct this please?

    Just figured out it also does not work with the Mail app.

How do I merge AppleID accounts and shut down the old one (when I have no password and the security questions aren't working?)

    You cannot merge Apple ID accounts, that has never been supported.
    You can contact the Apple ID Security folks per the listing in http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699 and they can help reset security questions and get the account working.
