Is there a way to get texts off my phone?

I have a support link to doing this, but I can't read the writing from the tech guy. So I'm pretty sure there is a way... the link looks like.... support.apple.com/kb/ht4137
Thanks,

Copied from the support article you just referenced:
Copy and paste important SMS messages to the Notes app and Sync to your computer using iTunes (this method has limitations for some versions of windows).
Paste the SMS messages into an email and then email them to yourself.
There are also 3rd party applications that purport to allow you to access your messages from your computer. I've no experience with them, though.
FYI, you just need to paste that link into the browser to get to the article.

    Hey there 79usma79!
    I have a couple of articles for you that can help you troubleshoot the issues you are seeing with iTunes on Windows XP. The first is a general troubleshooting article, which can be found right here:
    iTunes for Windows XP: Troubleshooting unexpected quits, freezes, or launch issues
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1421
    This article can help you find out if there are any conflicts between your copy of Windows XP and iTunes, and can tell you what to do if there are. Before going down the troubleshooting route though, you should take a look at this article, which can help you back up your entire iTunes library to an external hard drive, so if this issue is recurring, you will be able to restore from that backup and will not have to worry about losing your playlists or music again:
    iTunes: Back up your iTunes library by copying to an external hard drive

    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities!
    Cheers,

  • I've got a iPod classic 80g I've got loads of pictures on there and I want to get them off. I've tried something where the files I get off come up as thumbnails which I can't open. Is there any way of getting them off and viewing them as a normal photo?

  • Is there any way to get photos off of my iPhone 4 that won't turn on?

    A couple of weeks ago my iPhone 4, running on iOS 7, decided to stop working.  It just shut off all of a sudden, and wouldn't turn back even if it was plugged into a computer.  It would just say that it was an iPhone in recovery mode, and that it needed to be restored.  I would be okay with doing this, however I recently went on a big trip and took hundreds of photos on this trip with my phone, and I mistakenly did not back up my iPhone since this trip.  I was wondering if there was any way to get these pictures off of my phone myself, and if not if there is any way that the people at the apple store could help me?
    Thank you!

  • Is there a way to get data off Mac, onto iPhone?

    I have my iPhone 5, and I am wondering if there is any way for me to get a document from my MacBook at home, to my iPhone on the road? If not is there a way that I can remotely control my Mac from my iPhone?
    Thanks, Kynan

    Ok, now I have another question. How do I get the document off icloud and bring it to my iPhone? When I go to the icloud website it gives me three options. Set up icloud on this device (done) and to set up other icloud stuff that I already have done. How do I get the doc from icloud to my iPhone?
    Thanks, Kynan

  • Is there any way to get rid off the network lost notifications - really ruins the iPad experience :(

    Hey all, I'm getting really frustrated with constantly being notified that the network has dropped, especially when travelling through areas with patchy signal. I know I can turn off 3g but that would mean not using 3G when I need it the most. I think this notification is poorly thought out by apple - why would a user want to be notified every 30 seconds their signal is coming and going? Or indeed ever be notified? Surely that's what the signal bar is for. is there a way to disable this noification? Thanks for the help.

    Assuming you're talking about the icons, only the developer can change those... Apple in this case.

  • Is there any way to get scratches off led screen?

    I swear the plastic covering the LCD screen is as soft as butter. It gets scratched as easily as the underside of a cd. In hindsight I know i should have always kept it in a protective case, but now that what's done is done is there a way to buff out the scratches?

    Here are some ways to remove scratches...
    Ice Creme
    iCleaner
    Also, here are some reviews...

  • Is there any way to get photos off of my ipod back onto my computer?

    I accidentally deleted all of my pictures from my computer. I have itunes set not to sync the photos from my computer to my ipod. So that means that the photos are still on my ipod.
    Is there anyway I can get these back on to my computer.

    I didn't delete them from my computer. I put them on a dvd and I had it sitting on my desk. I wrote "my pictures" on it and set it down on my desk. I had another dvd that had the same thing on thing written on it. I thought I picked up the one that i thought was the old one, but it wasn't. So i have the dvd that has all of my old pictures on it, but i lost all of my more recent ones. I didn't feel like putting that on the post so I just put that I deleted them from my computer.
    Do you know of anyway of getting them off of my ipod back onto my computer. Maybe taking it to an apple store or something?

  • Is there a way to get photos off my hard drive without losing integrity of various albums and folders

    I have a large number of photos on my mac, and wish to move them, but don't want to lose all the sorting and organizing i've done into various folders and albums.  Is there a way to move a series of events and not lose the tie to an album or folder?

    Here's one way to do what you want:
    1. Quit iPhoto.
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the external drive.  (Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled) )
    Now you have two full copies of the Library. To choose between them:  Hold down the option (or alt) key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
    3. On the Internal Library, remove the pics you don't want with you all the time.
    Now you have one full library on the external and another smaller sub-set on the Internal.
    A couple of comments:
    a. The external disk needs to be formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
    b: When you're removing the unwanted pics from the Internal Library you need to delete them in batches of about 100 or so. Trashing more at one time can cause problems with the database.
    c: Managing Multiple Libraries - including moving pics/albums/rolls and metadata between them - is greatly facilitated by using iPhoto Library Manager

  • Hi I bought a factory unlocked phone from Dubai but I'm using it in india. But it still doesn't have FaceTime option in settings . is there a way to get FaceTime on my phone without jail breaking .. Pla help guys

    Bought my iPhone 4 from Dubai even though it's a factory unlocked phone I don't have a FaceTime button in setting so I'm wondering is there anyway I can get the FaceTime with out jail breaking my device it's working on iOS 4.3.5 , I read so much about getting it after u jailbreak Ur phone u get FaceTime but can I get it with out jail breaking my device as I'm using it in india please reply guys

    iPhones purchased in the UAE do not have FaceTime installed and FaceTime will not appear regardless of where the phone is taken.
    Jailbreaking will void your warranty with Apple, may permanently render your phone unusuable, and will eliminate the possibility of getting help from Apple or its forums including this one.
    If you want FaceTime on an iPhone, sell that phone and purchase one from one of the authorized iPhone dealers in India.

  • Is there any way to get photos off of my Apple TV?

    The hard drive on my Macbook crashed earlier in the week and the only other place I had some of my photos is on my Apple TV. Is there anyway to retrieve these from the hardrive?

    I'm sure there is - but it will almost certainly mean invalidating your warranty. Depending on how technical you are ... you could:
    1. Take it to an Apple Store and get one of the geniuses to help you out; or
    2. Take the Apple TV apart yourself, put the drive inside either a USB or Firewire enclosure, plug the drive into your Mac and get the files off that way ...
    If you choose 2. you should probably take a look at the instructions on this page and that should help. You might also find some information on this page.
    Best of luck ...

  • Is there any way to get photos off of my phone?

    i dont want them from my phone to my computer i want them off of my phone. i put them on my phone from my computer and now i cant delete them

    You delete them the same way you put them there.  The sync process.
    Deselect the folder in itunes under the apps tab and sync.
    or
    Remove the photo from the selected folder on your computer and sync.
    or
    Delete the photos from your computer and sync.
    and so on.
    The iphone is not a storage device.  It simply mirrors the selected content of your computer.  If you do not want it on the iphone, do not select it.
