Adding several people to a text message

Can you please update the text messaging features to enable the user to selet various people to add to a textx message instead of one by one.  At the moment, when you type in a e.g. S, the list of people with S pop up but you can only add them one by one. 

Not sure if this is what you want ..
Go to Messaging and tap on + against the 'To' Field..then tap 'select' at the bottom ..Now go on 'Ticking' the Boxes against all the Contacts you want to select ..and finally select 'Done' ..

  • Why can't people send a text message to my new iPad phone number

    Why can't people send a text message tou my new iPad phone number? I just got this iPad for my birthday and my wife has secretly told everyone the new number to send text messages to as a surprise when I onpened it... but none came through.

    Only individuals with iOS devices can message you and they must message you via the email address(es) associated with your Apple ID.
    They cannot message a phone number unless you have an iPhone associated with the account.

  • Adding a contact to a text message takes 10 seconds to pull up.

    Took it into the store and they couldn't figure out the delay...
    Said it may be a virus in my contacts and I would have to delete all my contacts and manually put back in.
    HELP!

    There is not a virus in your contacts. (That actually doesn't even make any sense, so whoever told you that was smoking something.)
    First, try resetting your device. Press and hold both the home button and the sleep/wake button for about 10 seconds, until the screen turns off. Ignore the slider that will appear. Release the buttons, then press and hold the sleep/wake button until the Apple logo appears. This is the equivalent of a reboot, and should not affect your data or apps.
    If that doesn't help, try restoring your device from backups, and if that doesn't help, restore it to factory settings (ie, do not restore a backup). See:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1414
    If none of that helps, the issue is caused by some kind of hardware problem, and the device will need to be repaired or (more likely) replaced.

  • How can I add a signature to text messages?

    Is there a way to have my name automatically added to the end of text messages?

    In a word, no.
    You can use this link to send Apple your feedback.

  • IPhone keeps sending the same text message multiple times in a row.

    My iphone (4s) keeps sending people the same text message multiple times (2-4) a few seconds inbetween.  Sometimes it will tell me that there the message failed, but they still recieve it multiple times.  I've already tried deleting the message tread and reset network settings.  Nobody who has an iphone has said anything to me about it yet, only people with android.  

    It's a carrier issue. I have AT&T and had this issue with my friend (who had an Android) and my mother (who had a feature phone). Both of them have Verizon for service and I'm thinking the issue was on Verizon's end. They both just dealt with it as we tried all sorts of things to get this sorted out (other than contacting Verizon directly) and had no luck.
    They've both switched to iPhones so it's a moot point for us now, at least.

  • What does it mean when you send someone a text message and it shows a red check mark next to their message?

    The person I sent the message to has a different provider so they are not a Verizon member but for some random people I will send them a text message using my Verizon phone and it shows a red check mark next to the text message I sent them before they even reply. A few of the people that get this red check mark are not even Verizon users. So what is this red check mark and also why do some people I send text messages to get it but others don't?

    A red check means the text wasn't sent (maybe the number has been changed, they have texts blocked, there was a network problem).

    I CAN NOT RECEIVE TEXT MESSAGES FROM PEOPLE USING IMESSAGE

    On an iPhone your iMessages will go to your phone number.
    You can select another email to use on iPod or iPad.
    Go to settings

    Send and receive
    Check your phone number and uncheck the common Apple ID you share so your messages will not go to other devices.

  • Droid Bionic text messages going to wrong people

    I have had my Droid Bionic for several months now. It is not rooted and I don't download tons of apps on my phone. I don't use netflix to watch movies or download music. The apps I have are mainly to help me with work. So I'm not app happy just downloading things non stop. This is why I'm confused and irritated. My Bionic has started sending text messages to the wrong people! I had this issue with my Droid X which is why I switched to the Bionic, hoping that after all these years of making smart phones motorola, google and verizon would put a phone out there that actually works like it's supposed to. How much practice do these phone companies need to get their OS right? I don't mind paying a lot of money for something that will make my life a little easier but I get very irritated paying a lot of money for something that doesn't work the way it's supposed to...and at the most inappropriate times. The Bionic has gone from helping to adding to my daily hassles. Is anyone else having issues with text messages going to the wrong people on their Bionics? Have you found a way to fix it? I'm also getting error messages that just started about a week ago...com.motorola.main.service has stopped and then a option to forceclose. The tech support person at Verizon sounded like he had never seen a smart phone before and gave me the Verizon standard technical reply..."do a factory reset". I should not have to reset anything on a NEW Phone! Why don't you fix these problems Google, Motorola and Verizon and in a timely manner?! I know for a fact if I didn't pay for my phone as promised or pay my bill as promised I would suffer the consequences immediately! You cell phone companies are all about getting your money and leaving us customers out here hanging and irritated. If you think my feelings are misguided then feel free to prove me wrong. FIX THESE ISSUES AND FIX THEM IN A TIMELY MANNER! BETTER YET, PUT OUT A PRODUCT THAT WORKS AS PROMISED IN YOUR ADS! TRAIN YOUR TECHS TO ACTUALLY RESOLVE ISSUES INSTEAD OF RECITING THEIR FAVORITE MOTO "Do a factory reset"! When you do these 3 things I will not feel like someone who has been lied to, robbed, and irritated! I am usually a very positive person but after dealing with issues with 2 expensive phones I'm a little upset. Can anyone help me fix my phone?

    Go into your settings, Messages and turn on iMessage. It will then send messages that are iMessages to both your iPad and iPhone. You can also turn off this feature on the iPad if you do not want to receive messages on the iPad.

    Your carrier determines what you can send in a text message, Apple has no control over it as SMS and MMS are completely carrier-based

  • Is it possible for a third party to be added to an esatblished text message thread?

    Is it possible for a third party to be added to a text message thread (between 2 people). This test message thread has been established for over a year! He says he could see our message history via his icloud. Is this possible? Please help.....

    How "third party" are we talking about here.....? Not another user (usually family) who has access to the same Apple Id, is it? I know, that seems too obvious.....
    Could you explain the situation a little more? Did you or the other party forward your iMessage ("text" between "i" devices/Mac users) to this 3rd party? How did this 3rd party end up with any portion of your conversation (or is that the question)? I know it is easy to forward a portion of your conversation to another user. When you choose to forward a "text bubble", you receive round check boxes next to all messages in the conversation; you just pick and choose how much you want the 3rd party to receive. Other than that method, I know of no way to loop in a 3rd party to an existing conversation via iPhone or iPad.
    Anyone else?
    Best of luck,
    Bill

  • Can you send a broadcast text msg to several people at one time

    How do you send a broadcast text message to several people at one time?

    As already provided, this is not supported with the iPhone's SMS client at the present time but as a workaround, you can do the same via email - SMS is just very limited email sending/receiving anyway.
    This requires knowing the recipient's cell phone provider and the provider's email domain and entering this as an email address for a contact.
    Here are some common domains.
    Alltel = [email protected]
    AT&T = [email protected]
    Boost Mobile = [email protected]
    Cingular (AT&T) = [email protected]
    Einstein PCS = [email protected]
    Sprint = [email protected]
    T-Mobile = [email protected]
    US Cellular = [email protected]
    Verizon Wireless = [email protected]
    Virgin Mobile = [email protected]
    With the x's representing the recipient's cell phone number beginning with the area code. You can also use the same for MMS - sending a photo via the iPhone's email client which is received by the recipient as an MMS on their iPhone.

  • On an i Phone 4, how do you reply only to the sender of a text message which is sent to a group of people?

    On an I phone 4, how do you respond only to the sender of a text message which has been sent to several people> Our replies always go to all the recipients of the original text. Thanks

    Start a new text message only to that person, not in the group text.

  • Text messages going to wrong people

    I am new to this forum and I think I posted under the wrong forum for my problem. Please follow the link to my post. I really would appreciate some help.
    http://community.vzw.com/t5/DROID-DROID-2-by-Motorola/Droid-Bionic-text-messages-going-to-wrong-people/td-p/733318

    I have been experiencing this issue for the last few weeks and it is extremely annoying.  I've called Verizon 7 times and have gotten nothing but the run around.  What's even more annoying is hearing them say there will be a software coming out to correct the problem but they don't know when.  I'm very disappointed in Verizon.  I've been with them for many years.  They were my first and only carrier.  I will definitely not be taking this lying down.  I'm going to get a resolution, and if that means leaving Verizon, then so be it.  And if anyone from Verizon is reading this, PLEASE DO NOT offer up another apology.  I don't want another apology, I want this issue to be corrected, NOW!!
