Turning off SMS Preview

i tried going to settings>general>passcode lock and i switched "show SMS Preview" to off but its still popping up on my screen...how do i stop this?

Is the message showing up or does it just now say you have a text message? You can't turn off SMS. You can block the actual message. Note the screen needs to be off in sleep mode essentially. Once the screen goes black you will only get "the you have a text message".

  • How can I turn off sms preview?

    Hello,
    i have had this issue starting with an old iphone 4. Even though the option to show preview was disabled, the sms content still appeared on the screen. I have upgraded to an iphone 5 and 2 days ago upgraded to an iphone 6. The option is turned off in Settings>messages> show subject field,  yet it does nothing. I suspect I still get this error because I have restored the backups with itunes when setting up the new devices (both the iphone 5 and 6). Can someone guide me through getting rid of this? It is really annoying.
    Thank you!

    That is not the setting to turn off the SMS preview. That is the setting to turn off the Subject field when composing a message. The setting you're looking for is Settings>Notifications>Messages>Show Preview>Off

  • Turning off sms preview Lumia 800

    i would like to turn off the SMS preview when i get a message. Is this not possible? i have just bought a lumia 800 nice phone...some really good features...but very uncustomisable compared to Android and IOS.

    You mean that bar across the top of the screen? No you can't remove it.
    What customisation are you refering to? Perhaps I can help.  I have androids as well.

  • Turn off icon preview on all folders?

    Looking for a good way to turn off icon previews on all folders, especially on a networked drive. 
    If I open a folder and choose View > Show View Options, I can turn off the icon previews for that folder, but the others remain unchanged. (Even if I push the use as defaults button)
    Is there a script to command that I can run to change this on all folders recursively?

    Thanks!!! I had been looking for like 25mins before i luckily ran into this thread!

  • Way To Turn off mpeg preview in Finder?

    I have mpeg videos that are close to 4 gigs in size. Whenever I select "get info" to find out the file size, it hangs the computer for about 2 minutes as it tries to load the video in the preview area.. Anyway to turn off this preview function?

    Try opening an info window on some other file and click on the triangular icon next to the preview header to close the preview. Finder should remember this pref next time round.

  • Can anyone please tell me how to stop email previews from appearing on my screen. I have turned off the preview option in settings on both my ipad and iphone, but they still keep appearing.  Thanks

    Can anyone please tell me how to stop email previews from appearing on my screen. I have turned off the preview option in settings on both my ipad and iphone, but they still keep appearing.  Thanks

    works ok on mine - (5, 7.1.1).  Try again.  with previews set to none, mine shows the sender and the subject line only.  (you cannot get rid of the subject)    with the other settings, you get the sender, subject line and however many lines you selected.

  • Turn off font preview in PS CC 2014?

    I'm attempting to troubleshoot performance issues with Photoshop and one thing I am seeing in Adobe's FAQs is that I should be able to turn off font previews in the preferences in the Type preference panel. However, I am not seeing that option. Has this been removed or moved elsewhere in PS CC 2014 or is it no longer considered a relevant performance tweak... or is something wrong with my install? Screenshot:
    My version of Photoshop is 2014.1.0 / 20140730.r.148 x64
    Running on Mac OS X 10.9.4
    iMac 3.5GHz i7, 32GB RAM, 6TB RAID 0, 1TB startup SSD
    PS. The issue I am actually troubleshooting (if anyone reading this has any insight) is that large doc sizes (~100MB) with many layers (both vector and type) have become largely unusable as minor edits such as resizing or moving a layer results in beachball for upwards of 20-30 seconds with the Console reporting that Photoshop has been "caught burning CPU!" (exclamation point is Apple's, not mine). Anyway, sounds naughty. Hardware tests have come up empty so I am revisiting my otherwise unchanged settings to see if I can fix the issues.
    Thanks in advance for any advice or thoughts!

    Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh... in the Type MENU, not the preferences... Thanks!

  • How do you turn off email preview

    I have turned off email preview in settings, however the preview still remains.

    Turning off the email preview in settings only removes the lines of text from the inbox list.  Other discussion on this topic indicate there is currently no way to turn off the preview pane (window) that appears behind the list of emails on the left hand side.

  • How do I turn off the preview pane in Mail

    I am trying to turn off the preview pane in Mail - ultimate goal is to stop have mail mark a message as read just because I scrolled over it.  I don't want a message marked as read unless I actually open the mail item.
    fond this thread continually in earlier discussions from 2009-2011 - but othing more recent.  Surely this has been fixed by now.
    Thanks

    Drag the divider between the message list and the preview pane all the way to the right. It will pause about a 3/4 of the way, but keep dragging and it will go all the way over.

    How do I turn off mail preview?

    Hey DogJoey, 
    You can adjust the preview window or completely hide it by dragging the separator all the way to the right. For more information take a look at the article below. It will be for OS X Yosemite, but will be the same for OS X Mavericks.

  • How can I turn off the preview (overview) automatically executed when I launch Image Capture?

    I love using Image Capture, but every time I launch it, it automatically does a previes of my scanner's flatbed.  Most of the time, I don't use the flatbed.  I use the feeder to scan multiple pages. 
    My question is this:  Is there any way to turn off the automatic preview (overview) that Image Capture executes when it's launched?
    Thanks in advance for any and all assistance!   

    Not a direct answer.
    From Image Capture Help:
    Scan pages with a document-feeding scanner
    When you scan a document with a document-feeding scanner, the same settings are used for all the pages in the feeder. If your pages need different settings (for example, some are grayscale and some are color), separate them into different groups.
    Before you begin these steps, you need to open your scanner. For instructions, see one of these help topics:
    Scan an image
    Scan an image with Image Capture
    Scan an image with Preview
    Place the pages in the scanner’s document feeder.
    Turn on the Use Document Feeder option, if it’s present.
    Set scanning options.You may need to click Show Details to see all the available options.Here are some of the options you can set. The options available to you depend on the scanner you’re using. Some options aren’t available on all scanners, and some scanners may have more options.
    To choose the type of image being scanned, use the Kind pop-up menu.Choose Text for black-and-white images with high contrast, such as text. Choose Black & White for grayscale images. Choose Color for color images.
    To scan both sides of a page, select Duplex.
    To choose a size for the scanned image, use the Size pop-up menu.
    To choose where to save the scanned images, use the Scan To pop-up menu.If you choose a folder, the images are stored in that folder. If you choose an app, the images are opened with that app.
    To adjust the colors or exposure of the scanned image, choose Manual from the Image Correction pop-up menu, and adjust the controls.If you don’t see the image correction controls, scroll down or make the Scanner window taller.
    Click Scan.The scanner scans the pages one by one.
