When i delete conversations on my iphone 4S, my messages wont send after that. Then when i restart my phone they are all back. How can i fi this?

When i delete my conversations on my iphone 4s my messages will not send, then i restart my phone and yhe are all back, what can i do about this?

Same way it works with any computer...when you delete something, the data isn't actually deleted, just the pointers to the data. As you use your device, the data gets overwritten, since the iOS views it as "free" space..
If you want the data truly gone, you need to erase your phone. Same way it works on any computer.

    You need to ask Apple to reset your security questions; ways of contacting them include clicking here and picking a method for your country, phoning AppleCare and asking for the Account Security team, and filling out and submitting this form.

  • I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them.  I can not click on those songs and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone.

    I tried to sync music from iTunes to my iPhone and when I click on "on this phone" the songs are there, but they are greyed out and have a circle in front of them.  I can not click on those songs, delete or anything and when I eject the phone they are not on the phone.  I tried to re-add the songs and it says it can't add songs because they've already been added.  So HOW can I get the songs to actually ADD to my phone to where I can listen to them?  It's like they're stuck in Sync limbo or something!  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.

    This never happened before, however the last couple of months it comes up every time I plug my USB from PC to iphone.

    HyperNova Software,
    Thank you so much.  Because I am very computer illiterate, could you help me on how to get started?  I don't have the slightest on where to get started, the steps to follow, etc.
    Can't thank you enough for your help!

  • My iPhone has a protective cover on it and I carry it in my pocket a lot.  Quite often when I take it out of my pocket the silent/ring switch is off and I am sure it was on when I put the phone in my pocket.  How can this be happening?

    Protective cover as in screen protector?  This would have nothing to do with the silent switch.
    If you're referring to an actual case though... take the case off and see if the problem continues.
    It may be as simple as the silent switch being lose, which will require a device replacement to resolve.

  • My PC Windows 7 harddrive crashed.  I have a new harddrive.  But i lost all my CD's that i had burned onto iTunes.  They are all still on my iPhone 4s, but when i sync, only the purchased songs will import.  Is there anyway to retrieve them

    My PC Windows 7 hard drive crashed.  I have a new hard drive.  But i lost all my CD's that i had burned onto iTunes.  They are all still on my iPhone 4s, but when i sync, only the purchased songs will import.  Is there anyway to retrieve them?  Thanks!

    Restore your library from your most recent backup (you do keep regular backups, I hope).  If the hard drive is in any way salvageable it may be possible to mount it in an external enclosure, connect it to your PC, and retrieve data from it even if it is not functioning as a primary OS drive (if you don't have the kit necessary to do this, your local PC repair shop may be able to help).  Failing that, you can always recreate your library by re-importing your CDs.

  • HT4191 I deleted notes on my mac but did not want them deleted from iPhone but after synching they are all done. Can I get them back?

    I deleted notes on my mac but did not want them deleted from iPhone but after synching they are all done. Can I get them back?

    Deleting on one device does not affect another device.
    You can delete the App's on the iPhone and nothing will happen to the ones on the iPad.
    1.  You don't need to.
    2.  Settings->Cellular->"Use Cellular Data For" will show the data usage for each App since the last statistics reset
    3.  Settings->General->Background App Refresh Will show which Apps are allowed to get data in the background
    4.  It restricts it to Wifi.  If the App requires internet access and Data is turned off, it will have to wait until the device is connected to a wifi network.
    5.  Nope, You just use up battery since the BT radio will continuously look for nearby BT devices.
    6.  The Personal Hotspot uses your cellular internet connection from your phone or other cellular device; whether you consider that secure or not I cannot say.  It also depends on what you are doing while connected to the Hotel's wifi. I would not do online banking while on vacation though.

    Firstly you DO NOT have to do a factory reset / wipe device, it is simply not required to get the space back!!
    Mine had 3GB and I just got rid of it all, here is how:
    METHOD ONE:
    Make a backup in iTunes
    open iBackupBot (Google it)
    Go to the relevant backup
    Click on Multimedia File Manager and click on the other Multimedia files tab
    Sort by filename by clicking the Filename tab
    Find MediaDomain/Library/SMS/Attachments and highlight all of them, then press delete.  You can also click to export to a folder of your choice, if you want to save them that is. 
    Then go to System Files>MediaDomain>Library>SMS>Attachments
    They will be all listed here, highlight them all and press delete
    Then just restore that backup using iTunes! 
      Tadaa! Space recovered, your messages are still there but without the attachments!  METHOD TWO:
    Backup your device in iTunes and then to iCloud
    Go to Settings>iCloud and toggle Documents & Data to OFF
    Then do a 2nd backup to iTunes and iCloud
    Then restore the device from iCloud and the message attachments should be gone, turn Documents & Data back on again in the settings
    PLEASE NOTE: Method two is a much longer process but some users may feel more comfortable with this method.
    P.S You may want to make two backups in case you get any of the above steps wrong, but it is simple to follow the above and not do anything wrong!
    P.P.S You could also just go through every single conversation and delete the attachments one by one, but if you have hundreds or thousands of attachments, this will take a VERY LONG TIME!!!

  • IS IT IMPOSSIBLE? My iTunes library says 4149 songs, my iPhone says 4148 songs, and my iPad says 4147 songs.  Why don't they match?!  How can I fix it???

    My iTunes library says 4149 songs, my iPhone says 4148 songs, and my iPad says 4147 songs.  Why don't they match?!  How can I fix it???

    Yes. I selected all songs and checked them (in case I missed a few) and synced.  I have also tried uninstalling iTunes and reinstalling it.  I tried selecting all songs and unchecking them, re-syncing my phone (which didn't get rid of the songs on my phone like i thought it would), then selected all songs again, checked them, and resynced again--nothing changed.  I went to the iTunes store and selected "Check for all available downloads" and it gave me the message"All purchases have been downloaded for this account."  I checked for duplicates, deleted a few and resynced.  This reduced the number of songs, but it still doesn't match what the iTunes library says...I don't know what to try next...

  • I have address book v. 6.1 in Lion. I have recently been unable to change my notes. When I type anything new, it simply disappears. How can I fix this?

    Hi
    I have address book v. 6.1 in Lion. I have recently been unable to change my notes. When I type anything new, it simply disappears. How can I fix this?
    I checked previous discussions on Address Book problems and there was a suggestion to find Library in GO. I do not see Library when I clicl Go. Can someone advise on this?

    To migrate your data to a new iCloud account go to Settings>iCloud and turn off all synced data (contacts, calendars, etc.), when prompted choose to keep the data on your phone.  After everything is set to off, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  Next, create the new iCloud account on your phone and turn on syncing for contacts, calendars, etc again.  If prompted, choose Merge.  This will upload your data to the new iCloud account.

  • IPhone texting; no verizon 'checkmark' no time-stamp on texts- it makes texting unpleasant- am considering taking it back- how can I fix this?

    IPhone texting; no verizon 'checkmark' no time-stamp on texts- it makes texting unpleasant- am considering taking it back- how can I fix this?  Is there an app I can buy?  If not is there a smart phone out there that includes this?

    ALL of my messages have the date and time. I just sent that one to get something generic to post.  It's true that each text in a conversation does not have its own time stamp, if there is a minimal amount of time between texts, but take a look at this.  "R" replied 25 minutes after my initial text and that message has date/time.  I replied immediately and that one does not.
