IPhone :: How Does A Recipient Know Who Sent A Message
Mar 14, 2012
I sent a message to a person via his iPhone. He had no idea who the message was from, so he called back the number shown. Is there a way to show who a message is from. I know in email you can change "Sent from my iPhone" but I see no way to do this with a message. I have an iPhone 4s.
Info:
MacBookPro, Mac OS X (10.7.2), 2.2 GHz Intel Core i7
I am having an Empty message (not Blank Message). It takes up the space of a text message but the recipient name or the message is not shown in inbox. When I tried to Open the message it said 'Unsupported message type'. This message is not even getting deleted saying 'Error occurred. Deletion not completed'. I got this problem already Twice. What happened further is, After sometimes more of such msgs starts to appear, and then suddenly all saved messages will get deleted.
Then all the applications (including basic applications like calculator) will get deleted. I gave to Nokia service centre. They just said it could be virus so they got my mobile, gave back (installing the software again I guess, I don't think they Cleaned Virus as told by them) and told me to use memory card after scanning. I scanned the card with the top antivirus - with up to date virus database. So I am very much sure there is no virus in my Memory card.
When I attempt to send an iMessage to my husbands phone, it sends and receives as a text message. When he responds, it comes in as an iMessage in a new message. How do i correct?
When I search for someone with a home, work and mobile number I'm only ever going to text the mobile (or iPhone) numbers. Anyone know of a way to filter it so that only they show up? I'm assuming it would be possible to tweak that on a jailbroken phone.
My BBM on my 9360 curve isn't working. I send a msg and it appears to go (Has the customary tick next to it but no 'D' or 'R' and the recipient doesn't get it. I have tried the battery pull as nothing else worked but still no good.
My wife has a Droid X which has recently started acting up in the last few weeks. Using the stock Text Messaging app, when she responds to a text message, the receipent name and number is not the person who sent it, but someone else (usually someone she texted with recently). Sending it, it goes to the wrong person. Turning off/on the phone only helps for a short time, as it happens rather quickly again. I have done a Factory Reset on the phone twice and still it happens. I have even gone as far as installing Handcent and she still has the issue, but many times it will show the correct receipent name, but goes to someone else.
Messaging App(By Default app) showing an error while sending a message after salecting contact from my contact book. Error is " Message has no valid recipient".
How can I remove a recipient from email before recreating the whole mail? I tried to drag it to some places but it only moves it between "to" and "cc". How can I completely remove it?
What happens to messages sent via iMessage or as text messages if the recipient's phone is off? Are they queued and resent when the phone is turned on? Or do they end up in the bit bucket?
Not sure where to post this question but very often my iMessages "fail" (ie: they end up being sent as SMS).Assuming the recipient does not have iMessaging switched off ?does it only work on WiFi and 3G?
I wondered if there is someone that can help me. I have an iphone 3g and have my aol email account set up on the phone. It was working fine before I went away on holiday but since I have returned I am unable to send emails as iit keeps saying that the recipient has been rejected as the server does not allow relaying. I did not use my phone while I was away except for texting so didn't change any settings. I have read through similar questions and have tried all of different things suggested (turning off wifi, although it was never on wifi it was using 3g), making sure that both the primary server and the other SMTP servers are set as on and the details are filled out but still nothing works. Originally it was only set up with the primary server ticked as on and I never had a problem with it. I've also tried turning the phone off and on again several times and tried the power off and holding down the home key at the same time.
I'm trying to send a photo from my "camera roll" to a business. They say they cannot see the photo in the email nor can open the attachment file which is the photo..Â
I've never had this problem before and haven't tried emailing a photo since I updated my iOS. Did 8.1.1 cause this?Â
Using an iPhone 5s, I took a photo and sent it to one of my contacts. I have several email accounts and the default one is my gmail account. When I selected the photo and chose to email it, the sending email account in the new email message was my gmail account. However, as soon as I selected the recipient, the sending email account changed to my outlook.com instead of the gmail one. I didn't realize this at the time so when I sent the photo, it sent using my outlook.com account instead of the gmail. I use the outlook.com account more for work related emails, so I don't want personal email messages to go through that account. I've been able to replicate this sending email account switching for this particular recipient both on my iPhone and on my iPad mini.Â
I've run into a similar situation when using Mac Mail on my MacBook - new emails are sent as from my Outlook.com account instead of the default gmail account. However, I've not been able to identify a particular reason for this. In the Mac Mail Preferences, Composing settings, I have selected to send new mail from my gmail account, not the account of the selected mailbox. This seems to be a recent development on both the MacBook and on my iOS devices. Both iOS devices are running version 7.1.2. The MacBook is on OSX 10.9.4.Â
Why would iOS mail change the sending email account based on the recipient, when sending a picture? It doesn't seem to consistently happen when just starting a new mail message from within the mail app. Why would this happen for just some recipients (so far I've just identified one in particular, who is on a comcast.com email account). Why would MacMail on the MacBook send new mail from the outlook.com account when the default is gmail?
I updated my Ovi Suite from 2.0 to 2.1.0.87. Now, when I go to messaging, click on Add recipient and select the name of a contact for which the number is +XX(YY)ZZZZZZZ (XX being country code, and YY being area code), I get an error message saying "Recipient not valid" and "Recipient "<+XX(YY)ZZZZZZZ>" is not valid. Cannot send the message."This is a serious regression from previous version... and plain WRONG. THis is the standard international form for representing a nubmber. It used to work with 2.0, it's the format Outlook automatically formats numbers to.This needs to be fixed very fast.
For a BlackBerry 9700 Bold: What name or information of the sender (besides phone number), if any, is viewable by a SMS or MMS recipient? Does it make a difference if the senders name and phone number is in their contact list?
Has anyond had issues, or know how to address a current problem I am having with the recipient of MMS. I go to compose an MMS, address it to the correct person, send it--but it send to a completely different person. Although both phones received the message, it only confirmed the inadvertant address in my sent list. This has happen at least 4 times, only with MMS and all to the same "wrong" person.
For some reason I can't add names when sending text messages. The cursor stays behind the to part. I now have to go into contacts and choose to send a text. This as happened since the last update.
There is an issue i am facing over my new phone as whenever i write an email using hotmail i am unable to have my contact list to add as a recipient so i have to find the email alternatively and than have to write it, how can i have my hotmail contact list in my email over bb? so i just type the name and can select the reciepient?
I've just set up the mail account and am receiving email fine but when I send any I get the message that "the recipient was rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying". I've triple-checked the settings.
If I try to send an E-mail to a Hotmail address with a 1.2 MB picture in it, the Nokia 6700 indicates after a very long time that the message is not deliverable due to network issues. What is the reason, is the picture too big? Or is it a provider-related issue?
I have been experiencing a really annoying problem with my headset and I was wondering if anyone could help. I cannot hear my recipient when I call/receive calls unless i use loudspeaker or headpiece. In other words, people can hear me fine but I can't hear them. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
When sending an email, my E72 used to offer suggestions from my address book when I start typing in the "To" section. That is no longer working. My only option is the click in the box, and another window opens where I then select from my address book.
I am unable to hear the voice of the recipient/ caller in case of incoming/outgoing calls. I am able to hear the songs, default tones etc in the phone, only problem is during call time.
