What do I do to prevent my text messages from showing up on my macbook in Messages? i want to disable that function

I have a new MacBook Air and an IPhone.  When I send text messages on my iPhone they seem to show up in Messages on my macbook.  I don't want my texts to be connected to my Macbook .  What steps do I need to take to make sure my text messages only stay on my iPhone. 
thanks

  • Photoshop CC 2014 - "Could not complete your request because something prevented the text engine from being initialised".

    This problem has just started, only with CC 2014. It doesn't happen with CC or CS6.
    When I open a particular layered file, then Duplicate it, then close the original Master file I get the "text engine" warning box when I try to enter text in the copy file.
    If I enter text in the original Master file - no problem.
    If the Master file is still open and I try to enter text in the copy file  - no problem.
    I've validated all my fonts in Font Book, deleting all the duplicates and one corrupt font. No change to problem.
    I've gone to User/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CC2014/ and trashed the CT Font Cache folder. No change to problem.
    I've run PS Update.
    Running OS 10.9.3.
    Any suggestions?

    I'm having the same issue on my work computer. I found this info in Adobe's help section.
    Issue
    When you use the Type Tool, you receive the following error:
    "Could not complete your request because something prevented the text ending from being initialized."
    To the top 
    Solution
    Close Photoshop, clear the font cache, and restart.
    Exit Photoshop.
    In Windows Explorer, navigate to the Users/[user name]/AppData/Roaming/Adobe/Adobe Photoshop CC/CT Font Cache folder.
    Move these two files to the Recycle Bin:
    AdobeFnt_CMaps.lst
    AdobeFnt_OSFonts.lst
    Empty the Recycle Bin.
    Restart Photoshop.

    Additional information
    This issue can occur after you uninstall and reinstall Photoshop several times.

  • Error: prevented the text engine from being initialized

    I am getting the following error when attempting to use the text tool with my photoshop (12.0) - windows 7.
    "could not complete your request because something prevented the text engine from being initialized"
    I've attempted to follow some posts from others to fix without success.
    There are two fonts in my fonts folder that are shortcuts - and the fonts don't exist in the folder. Also, I can't delete the shortcut font from the fonts folder.
    (I'm posting this now... and might have a solution. Just in case, I want this conversation started.)
    TIA,
    Greg

    Usually that means that you have a corrupt font or a corrupt OS font cache.
    See this document for more troubleshooting steps: http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/troubleshoot-fonts-photoshop-cs5.html
    Also, make sure you have all the Photoshop updates installed.

    Some text replies only show up on my MacBook Air and not to my iPhone for some contacts how can I fix this?

    Click once on the sleep/wake button to ignore the caller and the call will eventually
    go to voicemail. Click twice to send the caller directly to email.

  • What can I do to prevent the control key from not working in the future?

    Background:
    I bough an macbook pro about 1 year and 3 months ago and after 9 months of usage my control key stopped working for about an hour or two.This happened every time I turned on or awoke my mac from sleep (lid down).I sent it to an authorized apple service center and they replaced the keyboard.Everything was fine for about 4-5 months when the same thing happened again, ctrl key stopped working but this time not when turning on my mac but at random times and for random intervals.I sent it again to the service center but they told me that this time it won't be for free because my 1 year warranty has expired.I should mention that in European Union and Romania (the country where I am from and from which the mac was purchased) the law is that any electronics device sold has to come with at least 2 years of warranty.Apple seems to ingore this law.
    Anyway, after long conversations with apple uk on the phone they agreed to pay for the keyboard but not for the labor which was 70 eur ($100).It's not much but my 2 year warranty should have covered it.The sad part is that I have no guarantee that it's indeed a keyboard error and not something else, this might happen again in 4 months and I doubt this time apple would agree paying for the keyboard (which is 150eur) ($215).
    I should also mention that before calling apple uk I tried apple's romanian number (listed on their site) and it didn't work on the 3 phone networks that I've tried (2 fixed and one mobile) which led me to believe that apple support is in fact a big joke.
    Suffice to say that I will no longer purchase any apple devices or software, I regret purchasing mac os x lion just a week ago, when I will no longer use it because I intend to sell all my apple gear (timecapsule, iphone4, macbook pro) and buy stuff from companies that value their customers and respect their contracts.
    My questions are this:
    1) why does apple ignore EU and Romanian law?
    2) what can I do to prevent this from happening in the future
    3) can I request that my macbook be more thoroughly inspected? I suspect the keyboard is not the main problem and it will soon happen again as it happened two times already.
    4) can I do something for the repair labor charge to be waved? It is illegal in my country to ask for one in this scenario...

    Everyone reading your posts here is just another MacBook Pro user. We're all volunteers, not Apple employees. No one here can speak for Apple.
    In my personal opinion, buying Apple products in a country where Apple has no stores and no corporate presence is a risk that the buyer takes knowingly. I don't think it's a wise risk, and I don't recommend that anyone take it. A small percentage of the products sold anywhere are going to have problems, and it makes more sense to buy an inferior product that can at least be serviced locally than to buy a superior product that may have to be sent thousands of miles for repair if anything ever goes wrong with it.

  • Sending text messages from a Mac to an iPhone using Messages

    I just tried to text my wife's iPhone and it says it is not available for Messages. What does this mean? Why can't I text her from my Mac? She has an iPhone 3GS and I have a Mac running Lion with the Beta of Messages.

    Hi,
    Is she using iOS 5 ?
    Is she connected by Wifi ?

  • I recently purchased the iphone6 and since it was activated, I can not see any text messages from people with an iphone, on Verizon Messages.  Any advice?

    I recently purchased an iphone 6, and since it was activated on Sunday, I am unable to see any text messages from iphone users, on my Verizon Messages.  Any suggestions?

    Hi Erin,
    The reason I asked is I like using Verizon Messages and found out via a chat on your website that with iMessaging, you can't see those messages on Verizon Messages.  This phone is for a teen ager so I want to make sure all of the fun things about an iPhone are still intact if I turn off iMessage.  r do you know of an Apple product that works the same way as Verizon Messages?

    Hi..

    You can use a PaletteManagerService (see: http://www.adobeforums.com/webx/.3c054d73/0 and sdk docs)
    or take a look at the SuppressUI SDK example in how to use a SuppressedUIService:
    Class
    kSuppUISuppressedUIServiceBoss,
    kInvalidClass,
    /** Identifies the ServiceID.*/
    IID_IK2SERVICEPROVIDER, kSuppressedUIServiceProviderImpl,
    /** Suppresses UI*/
    IID_ISUPPRESSEDUI, kMySuppressedUIImpl //look at SuppUI on how to implement this

  • Is there a way to prevent the text tone from playing over the speaker while in a call?

    I have a custom tone for incoming text messages. When I am in a call, whether it be the handset, speaker or bluetooth, and I receive a text, the text tone plays loudly over the call, and is extremely annoying for me and the other party. It would be nice if it could just give a short quiet vibe while in a call. Please don't tell me change my text notification to vibrate. That is not a solution, I want my text tone to work, except when I'm in a call. If possible I would still like some notification, just something less intrusive. The next best thing would be to just silence it altogether when a call is in progress. Also switching the side button while in a call is not a solution as that defeats the purpose of hands-free, and also is difficult with some protective cases, Thanks in advance.

    This keeps appearing. I tried to uninstall and redowload and it still keeps happening.

    Most likely you have some corrupt fonts installed.
