Turn off iMessage on iMac

Hello!

I have an iMac at home who receives the iMessages through the Message App. I'm currently disappeared from home for the next few months and do not have access to this computer. I was wondering if there is anyway that I could not disable Message is received on the iMac at a distance without being directly on the computer?

Thank you

Only if the iMac is really active and you have activated the remote login or screen sharing. Otherwise, no.

  • iMac turns off unexpectedly...

    Hello

    I have a 2008 iMac and for some unknown reason then I use the screen turns off and does with the mouse or power button I still can hear the Mac works as it normally does when it is turned on. Is the problem that happens because I turn it off the PowerPoint because I still hear a fan running noise while it is stopped, I heard that some desktop computers make updates when it is off or there at - it a different explanation?

    Thank you

    It looks like a hardware problem with the screen, Backlight Inverter or graphics chip.

    It may arise or be aggravated at any time by a number of different factors,

    1. the age of the iMac

    2. use (such as the abusive graphic games)

    3. lack of cooling (bottom air intakes are clogged with dust)

  • end 2012 iMac 27-inch randomly turns off during simple tasks

    HI I end 2012 27 inch I Mac

    while I do tasks such as there is a time when I was waiting for a word on Microsoft word 2016 document while listening to a YouTube video, my Mac goes off randomly. If I move the mouse that nothing happens, or if I click on the keyboard, even when I click on the button at the back of the mac market. To remedy this, I have to cut the plug from the socket and wait a few minutes, then switch it on again, then without me touching the power button on the back of the Mac turns. I have a usb hub that has a constantly on the Mac is on the head, and when the problem arises that the led is not on so I'm sure that the Mac is turned off completely without power. The power offs get more frequent, and at first I thought it was because it was when I was using Windows in virtual box, but I deleted the virtual machine and the problem still happens.

    I think it has something to do with the power supply becpause I have the iMac connected to an extension cord about 7 meters which is plugged into the wall outlet

    the extension has only two taken end that which I use for the Mac and one for my printer (brother j132w) but I don't think that the printer has nothing to do with it, because the problem happens even just the I Mac is connected to the extension lead.

    I live the. U.K., so I have the uk plug if it has a meaning

    Help, please

  • Is it possible to have iMessage turned off automatically when the phone detects that it is not connected to wifi?

    My daughter continues to send iMessages when she's out and about (IE. When it is not connected to wifi) and iMessages are sent using its data allocation, and it continues to go over its data allocation. Is it possible to get the phone to turn off the iMessages automatically when it detects that it is not connected to wifi, so that messages are then sent via sms texts, and then it reconnects to iMessage when reconnected to the Wifi? (I know it can be done manually in the settings, but she keeps forgetting to do so).

    Not automatically.

     ▹ System Preferences... ▹ Sharing

    Disable all sharing services.

    Step 2

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

    A folder named 'vm' should open. Inside, there may be a file named 'drag '. Move this file and only this one in the trash, but do not yet empty. You will be asked for your password. Close the folder window.

    Restart the computer and empty the trash.

  • MG5300 printer only works now iMac after turning off, then turn it on again

    MG5300 printer only works now iMac or Maclaptop after turning off, then return. Has worked well for a long time, when issue print from a device, the printer icon bounces and messages 'no connection' so stop printer, and then turn it on again and prints. For a few minutes. Next print, have to start all over again. Any thoughts? Thanx.

    Thank you Canon Support, Jason by name. Well done.

  • Can I turn off the 3D option in Lightroom as I have problems cos my graphics card on my iMac is only 256 and I can't update?

    My iMac only has a NVIDIA GeForce 9400 256 MB graphics card and I am unable to go to 512 MB on the model that I have (21.5 ' end 2009).

    Processor:-3,06 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo

    Memory:-12 GB 1067 MHz DDR3

    It was working fine a couple of days, but now I have problems? New download? He tells me that I need 512 MB graphics card to run 3D. I've never used 3D so it is a way I can turn off so that I do not need to spend $3-5 000 on a new iMac?

    Those are just friendly warnings. The relevant characteristics will simply not available, but the bulk of the program should work just fine.

  • When there is no wifi, my phone automatically send as a text message without having to turn first iMessage every time me?

    I have an iPhone 5 s. I don't have a data plan but I text messaging plan.  When I try to send a text message wihout wifi, he just keeps trying to send as iMessage.  Must we automatically send as a text without having to turn first iMessage me?  I can't imagine that you would have to keep turning on iMessage and off whenever you do and don't have wifi.  Help, please?

    In theory, as long as you have settings > Messages > Send as SMS enabled, Yes, it should send the message as an SMS when there is no data available. In practice, sometimes it isn't. If you still do not have a data connection, you're usually better just not using iMessage and just going by SMS.

  • How to turn on printer to iMac

    Hello

    In the last months, I changed my old iMac and the Canon Pixma printer to a new iMac and printer Epson Expression. I'm fairly certain (unless I have yet another "senior moment"), that I could leave the Canon printer turned off and when I hit the PRINT button on the old Mac, the Mac would turn on the printer and start printing. Don't know how to put up with my new iMac/Epson or even if I dream just one time, it was possible!

    Put me out of my misery please!

    Thank you.

    I'm not aware of any way to turn on a remote printer (or, at least, I've never heard of this feature nor have I had a printer that could do).

    That's what I get when I try to print without turning on the printer:

  • Should I turn off the keyboard and bluetooth mouse off?

    Hello

    I'm new to Apple products and have recently purchased an iMac with keyboard and mouse compatible bluetooth.  The are a switch on each accessory to activate the bluetooth on or off.  Should I turn off after closing down to save the battery power or not this wear simply on the switches.  Not sure if stop actually stops transmitting wireless accessories, or if the latter uses the negligible power when the computer is turned off.

    Thank you

    Yes switches turn off the wireless, and yes they use negligible power when the computer is turned off.
