When I got the phone I had to turn off the SMS delivery receipts due to getting charged for each one.....I did the upgrade yesterday and now its turned back on again.....I cant find the Phone's message settings.
I love Apple stuff and since getting my first iPhone I have never looked back. Now several years later I am an apple convert and would never go back to any other mobile or computing device.One thing has surprised me however, and that is the latest incarnation of my trusty iPhone. Apple have introduced iMessage, which enables you to cmunicate in real time with iPod and iPad users,but this seems to fall short. With iMessage (and a free iCloud account), Apple could have had a fully integrated, native iChat app that would have enabled real time communication across all iOS and OS X devices. Furthermore; by tieing in FaceTime and the contact list, Apple could have turned iMessage into a full-blown Instant Messaging application.Why has Apple not done this and is anyone else surprised that they have not?
I would like to get receipts for the text messages I send. Others have said to change this in message settings. But the option doesn't appear in message settings. The only options that appear are:
iMessage MMS Messaging Group Messaging Show Subject Field Character Count.
Whats strange is that my wife has an identical iPhone running the same iOS version (5.1.1) - but her message settings DO include the option to set receipts.
My best friend had his cellphone service turned off a few weeks ago and as of yesterday all my texts *to* him are turning into SMS. They aren't being delivered as iMessages. Those messages I've sent to other iPhone users (ie. my sister) aren't doing this consistent change over. I'm confused because 1.I've received all of the messages *from* him and 2. Isn't iMessage supposed to work between iOS devices regardless? How can we remedy this? He won't be able to restore his cellphone service for another few months and the primary on his plan is going to have their provider recycle the number.
unblock or reset my BB ..i cant send simple text messages to other phones! i am getting crazy i am checking the entire phone to see what the matter could be , but i can get it resolved.
I have decided after reading all the threads that I will pre-order from Apple next Tuesday and now need to decide whether to have home delivery or in store delivery. What are the advantages and disadvantages of each? Ive heard that to home there may be activation issues and its better to be in store for troubleshooting but in store on launch day may be packed and I may have to wait I've heard that they have 2 different lines for walk ins and pre-orders is this true? If I send to store can I pick up anytime that day? How does apple ship their orders UPS.FedEx.Etc.Just want to get all the facts for both options if possible. This is my first time pre-ordering and just want to be prepared and make the right decision.
iPhone's being shipped by UPS will be delivered on the 24th iPhone's being shipped by Fedex will be delivered on the 23rd (It shouldn't matter if you ordered through AT&T or Apple.com) The only evidence to back this up is Apple's email to its customers claiming a June 23rd delivery, and all of these orders have Fedex as the carrier. This could mean that AT&T customers with Fedex as the carrier will also receive their iPhone's on the 23rd as well. Though for most AT&T customers there is no data for their tracking. EDIT- Some Fedex tracking information is showing a June 23rd delivery, on par with Apple.com orders. Fedex could be exclusively dealing with June 23rd deliveries while UPS is dealing with June 24th (Actual Launch Day) deliveries.
I will be out on a meeting for work that morning that FedEx normally arrives but my girlfriend will be home that day all day.Can She sign for it or does the signature HAVE to be my name?
How can I turn on delivery (and read) reports for text messages? I thought I'd found it deep within the menus somewhere, but nothing changes when I turn it on! (Maybe it's not the right thing after all...) I can only get the little "D" (and "R") on BBM; nothing for text messages.
I was wondering if there is a way to set up text messages without using a 3rd party app, to see if the person I have sent a text to, has received the text. I know on my Galaxy S5, it was in the options, but I cant find it on my S6 edge.......
That's my FedEx status right now. It's currently on a FedEx vehicle near my city. I can't remember if there's another status after that, maybe "Out for delivery" is what comes next or something? Will my phone come TODAY?
I don't understand what is happening with my messages. Both yesterday and now today I would only get some of my messages. Tonight I missed out on a whole conversation between a friend of mine and my BF in a group message. Then when my BF went to forward me the conversation I never got it until he sent via my e-mail. I have looked everywhere for help with no luck.
I have the european X6, so it does not natively support the chinese language. However, I read somewhere on this forum that you can install some chinese fonts so at least you can read chinese sms ?
i have jailbroken my iphone and i currently don't have a SIM card, according to every website i have set up my iMessage account right but everytime i send a message to someone it says "Not Deliverd". I have an active wireless internet connection and my iphone is connected to the wifi (Tried the DNS), but still doesnt seem to send any messages? Is there a possibility that there's someting wrong with the phone it's self or i might have the wrong things on in the settings?
For some reason, although I can successfully send messages using iMessage using my iPhone, and these are successfully replicated to all my other iOS devices, I do not seem to receive iMessage messages on my iPhone. I do get my SMS messages, but not my iMessage ones.
I can send SMS but not recieve. I can only get messages if I have Imessage on an I have both SMS and mms turned on. My carrier says everything should be fine but it's not working
To all, back January 2011 in Orlando, I bought 2 Iphones locked at AT&T. In that time I paid full price without AT&T contract. Now, I contact AT&T to unlock them and they are asking me the receipts proving that I bought them with full price.I don1t have the receipts anymore, so how can I get a copy of them?An important detail, I live in Brazil so I can not go to the Apple Store to claim for a new copy.
I have an IPad2 and IPhone 4S running the latest OS 5.1. I was texting with a 3rd party on my IPhone and was recieving responses back (all blue - not SMS). I was expecting a response on my iphone and did not recieve it in a timely manner but when I looked at my IPad the response was there. I waited around 5 minutes and still nothing. Then i dropped out of iMessage on my IPhone and started it back up and then I saw the text pop up.
Usually when I write an sms it shows up green and imessages shows up blue, and they both show up chronologically in the same window. I.e. my iphone understands it is from the same person and therefor post both types of messages in the same window. However a month ago or so my boyfriends imessages started showing up in a seperate window from his regular green text messages... Why? We have changed no settings of any sort. Nothining has been altered, and on his iphone both types of texts show up in the same window. My other iphone contacts also show up in the same window with both green an blue texts. How come his dont? His email as such is not a part of his contact details, i did however try adding it to see if that would help make the messages go in the same window but it didnt He has a iphone 3s i have 4, (not s).All I want is for the blue and the green messages to live together in perfect harmony within one window...
Is my wi-fi supposed to be turning on and off all the time? That frustrates me! iMessage won't even let me send messages! i type in the contact name, then type my message but it wont let me click in 'send.'
