Turning off (somehow) the ringing of FaceTime on mac OS X during Handoff calls

hi
Handoff is great. Love it.
But I need to be able to turn off FaceTime's ring on the mac during the Handoff.
What I want to avoid is the ringing of incoming FaceTime calls when I am not at my mac, and I am answering the incoming FaceTime call on my iPhone during that time.
Is the FaceTime incoming ring actually a Notification and can turn off Notification sound of FaceTime?
or can the ring be stopped maybe by stopping rings if the mac is on screensaver?
there must be a way...
thanks

hi
thanks.
but it seems more difficult. as per below review of handoff in yosemite included the following info about doing just that:
The FaceTime app will let you choose a ringtone for phone calls, but only from the stock collection of iOS sounds. (I even added ringtones to iTunes on my Mac, but it didn’t see them, and even if you find where the ringtone files are stored you can’t add new ones.) Ringtone selections were played on my MacBook’s internal speaker, even though the rest of the Mac was playing through an external audio device.

On a 5s how do you make the light turn off when phone rings or when you receive text, at work I would like to shut that off. Also seems like vibrate doesn't always work?

On a 5s how do you make the light turn off when phone rings or when you receive text, at work I would like to shut that off. Also seems like vibrate doesn't always work? I had a 4s and didn't have these issues

Thank you, I did find that. Still my phone does not always vibrate when ringer is off for texts and calls, only sometimes?

Turn off dual line ringing on spa509g

Hi,
I have a UC540 installed with 12 spa509g handsets.
The customer wants to know if dual ringing can be turned off on the SPa509g handsets.
The customer wants to give the caller a busy signal or voicemail when there is a second caller.
Kind Regards
Ray

The only way I have found to do it is through the GUI or command line. CCA does not support silent ringing.

How do I get my 4S to turn off? The on/off button seems to be frozen. Help?

How do I get my 4S to turn off? The on/off button seems to be frozen in the down position.

Make a Genius Bar appointment. In the meantime go Settings > General > Accessabilty > Assistive Touch.
There's a lock screen option for aid when hardware fails.

My iPhone 4S was turned off when the battery got empty, and when I put it on the charger it didn't charge at all. I tried restarting it (on/off home button for 10 sec) nothing happened except it kept giving me the "charge battery" on its screen.

Hi! My iPhone 4S was turned off when the battery got empty, and when I put it on the charger it didn't charge at all. I tried restarting it (on/off home button for 10 sec) nothing happened except it kept giving me the "charge battery" on its screen. I tried with different chargers, still dead! What's weirder is that my sister who has iPhone 4 experienced the same today! No we don't live in the same house!! Does anyone have the same problem?

On belhalf of my fellow volunteers, the answer is, "We'll try our best."
My advice is to try not to treat this like it is a paid service provided by compensated professionals. Ask nicely and one of the nice folks here might take some time out of their weekend to offer advice.

It should be telling you to download the latest iTunes on your computer... you can't install iTunes on your iPhone.

How do I turn off 'All' the photo stills in iMovie 11 without having to turn off each one?

How do I turn off 'All' the photos in iMovie 11 without having to turn off each one?

Hi AppleMan 1958,
Sorry I was typing too quickly ....
It should have said: "How do I turn off the 'Ken Burns' effect of all the photos without..."etc.
Having read another comment on this forum, I think I have the answer.
By going to File>Project Properties, and then turning off the Ken Burns effect.
Don't know how you feel about iMovie 11, but I think its pretty awesome don't you think?
Thanks for pointing out my stupid question!
Kind regards,
Bob

My iPad will stay on for minute or so, then will restart. I have tried to restore, but it says I must have "Find My iPad" turned off. The iPad will not allow me to turn that off, so I am at quite the impasse.

IMac just stops, turns off like the plug was pulled.

My iMac is a 17in G5, running 10.3.9, with 2MB of aftermarket RAM installed (by me over a year ago) and lately, it just turns off. It doesn't freeze, and it doesn't warn me. It just turns off like the plug was pulled. When I try to start it back up, no problem. Boots back up like normal....though if you look closely, a little "?" appears ever so quickly in the folder in the middle of the screen before I see the Mac happy face.
I bought it new new 3.5 years ago (no more apple care) and it has lived a pretty easy life, until my little one started walking and climbing. Since then, my little guy has turned the power strip off probably 20 or 30 times, thus killing power to the computer without shutting it down properly. Also, I am encountering a seeminly unrelated problem with my disc drive. It no longer runs or burns DVDs. CDs, no problem. DVDs, no comprendo.
Things I have tried.
I bought an external DVD drive. One problem fixed. For the random shut donw problem, the only thing I could think to do was to unplug everything, wait 15 minutes, and then plug everything back in. That made no difference.
Anybody have a suggestion? Is my computer nearing the end of its life? So soon? Right after apple care expired? Oh no!
thanks for any help,
Adam

MacBook turns off after the startup bong when trying to restart

Greetings,
When I try to restart my MacBook it turns off after the startup bong.
Thanks

Have you tried resetting the System Management Controller? That is a good first step for power related issues such as this.
Best of luck.

HT4113 Can you set a passcode to activate at certain times of the day, say at 930pm, and turn off again the next morning?

No, sorry, you can't. The screen lock passcode is either on at all times or it's off.

You will need to do that by syncing them with a computer and then syncing the computer with the iPad.
