IPhone :: Messaging (iMessage) Closes When Forwarding A Text?
May 21, 2012
If I receive a text and want to forward it to another person I select "Edit", mark the item(s) and select "Forward". I am then presented with the "New Message" screen and I enter the aprpopriate "To:" and hit "Send".
More time than not, when I hit "Send" I am dropped out to my iPhone home screen. Seem like an iMessage (SMS) bug to me
I am using an iPhone 4s on AT&T running IOS 5.1.1.
Unless I am in Ultra Power Saving mode, the only options I get for text messages are Delete and Copy Text. I don't get the other options such as Forward.
I don't have texting added to my provider contract and need to prevent some folks from texting when they don't have an iPhone. Otherwise I get charge for just receiving message solicited or not.
I have am using an X10 mini pro and when attempting to launch the messaging app, it crashes and i have to force close. I have the latest software (2.1.1.A.0.6) and 2.1 firmware.
It started when simply viewing a message, I had not installed anything recently.
Here is my situation right now, I am going to purchase an iPhone 4 with a brand new AT&T account. I have a T-Mobile account with an unlocked iPhone 3G.I am going to forward all of the calls from the T-Mobile number to the new AT&T phone number. I also want to forward text messages, is this possible, or am I stuck carrying around two iPhones? I plan to keep the T-Mobile for one more month and use the number alongside my new AT&T number, during a "transition period" with my phone. There are many reasons why I choose to do it this way, rather than porting the entire phone number.
A. There are some people who I just don't want to hear from, so a new number is perfect. (Ex. Political phone calls come election time!)
B. I need a month so people can reach me at the new phone, and it gives me time to inform them, and allow me to purchase the iPhone 4 on launch day.
C. I have business calls from clients that know me by my number, If anyone knows how much T-Mobile's ETF is, I may just go ahead and port my number over., depending on situations, if anyone can offer another solution to stopping political calls etc.
He wants to be able to forward all incoming calls and text messages to the new 4S. I've already set up the call forwarding, but can't figure out how to forward text messages. I know how to forward a single text message, but he'd like to have all incoming texts going straight to the new phone.
I updated my MBP to Yosemite 10.10.1 and also updated my 5s to 8.1.1 and had the option to forward text messages from my iPhone to my macbook, but now that option has disappeared. At first none of my messages were sending to my macbook but I managed to fix that, however, SMS messages will not send to my macbook and I don't have the option to get a code? I definitely did it before so at one point all the settings were correct.
Info: MacBook Pro (Retina, 13-inch, Mid 2014), OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)
My issue is i have been able to received mms from my contacts, however when i myself try to send one it comes up with an "error: please try again". The only thing is once i turn imessage on and send the picture it then works.
I've recently received a new iPhone 4S; if I try and write a text it just closes the app when I hit send. Also at the top of the inbox it says messages -1.
Can i disable iMessage, then just use normal messaging, a normal message will be sent like a SMS right?
And will Siri use SMS too?I'm not too fond on iMessage, I prefer the normal Messaging service on iPhone?Also does Messaging work fine without iMessage?
i have noticed that after switching to ios 5.1 my phone has been acting funny. for example: when i am messaging other iphone users with iMessage, it keeps switching from iMessage to regular text every 2 or 3 messages. at first i thought it was the other person since i am normally within my works wifi network and at my home wifi network, but it seems that this problem only occurs to other people when imessaging with me and not with anyone else. and this problem occurs to me while imessaging everyone, so i have come to the conclusion that the problem must be my phone. i have noticed this problem to occur since updating to ios 5.1. has anyone else experienced this problem? what can i do? i am 2 steps shy of reinstalling my phone.
I have an unusual issue I would like some assistance on since I just got a blackberry, I have the Curve 2 8530. I use Total Call Blocking with my carrier so that when I call anyone my number is automatically blocked / restricted. Therefore, in my contact list, I have my friends or family contacts listed with the *82 in front of the number to unblock for those people. This works fine for phone calls.
However, on Text Messaging / Picture Messaging, the *82 will cause these messages to fail. I am used to LG phones, you have the ability to edit the number while creating a message, before your send one of these messages. The problem I am having is when I send a Text Message / Picture Message it appears from the blackberry as only the 10 digit number (even though the contact has *82 in front of it)...and the message shows it is sent (with the check mark) but it NEVER received.
Can anyone give me a way to forward texts to email so they can be printed off. I called Verizon and was told there was no way. I can get some of them to randomly forward but most of them result in this msg: Unable to forward enhanced text to email.Has anyone used the "treasuremytext" website?I've got about 55 texts I need to get printed off for possible use in court:/
Why can't I forward emails that I receive from the internet? When you forward the email the images and some of the text are lost. Even if you save it as a draft you some of the content are lost. Is there maybe another email app that I can use (just not K9, doesn't work).
I got a text this morning from my sister and it has been repeating endlessly all day, I've had it about 700 times now and it's still popping up as a new message. I have to keep my phone on silent and turn notifications off just to get some peace and save the battery.
I started using my new iphone 4s yesterday but can not send any text messages to my contacts. I mannaged to get an iMessage to another iphone user but normal text messages to anyone who is not using iMessage won't go through. I have tried switching the phone off, taking out the sim, and a few other things in settings, but so far nothing has worked. Should the numbers in my contacts all include country code perhaps? I am in Australia.
Is there a way to get additional emoticons to use in my texting app? I have downloaded different Emoji apps but cannot figure out how to get them into my texting app.
I have the iPhone 4 with 3G. I don't use my phone all that much...use iMessage approx. 3x/week, and I listen to iHeart Radio at home on wifi. This is my issue: I got a notice that I was over my data usage and will be billed $15. My questions are...is iMessage free when you text between iPhones on AT&T? Does IHeart Radio use data? I feel that I might have my settings wrong because my sister says she uses iMessage all e time and NEVER goes over her data. How can I check my data usage so I don't go over again?
I am exchanging some messages with friends and family that live in Europe. The problem is, occassionaly, the iPhone will give up as sending as an iMessage and then send as a text. As a result, I am being charged for sending an international message, when I would rather just write an email or skype (if iMessage wasnt going to do its job). Is there anyway to set strictly iMessage to certain contacts?
