does anyone have any other ideas to try or observations on compatibility between iPhone, Samsung, and HTC for international SMS?
International texting can be a crap shoot. It's not a question of phone compatibility but of carrier interoperability.  I regularly text from my iPhone to my (domestic) colleagues (who all have Samsungs) and to a friend with and HTC (an old one, too) without difficulty.
One last question - I've never deleted my SMS from my friend, and would prefer not to. But it's pretty much the only thing I haven't tried. Does anyone think this might solve the problem eg if there are orphan texts somewhere on the network?
I'm not sure there really is such  thing as an orphan text. If a text isn't deliverable, the carrier deletes it from it's system. SMS is quite a robust system.
There is no general incompatibility between iPhones and other phones as far as texting is concerned. I suspect what you may be seeing is a combination of an old phone and/or an issue with one or both of your carriers. Intermittent technical problems are some of the most difficult to solve.
I have vague memories of people saying that a trailing space at the end of the text made a difference when they had similar problems. It was a couple of years ago. (Honestly, this problem doesn't come up that often!). I don't recall if putting in the traling space helped, or removing it helped. It may also just have been magical thinkning.
Best of luck.

    I'm in iPhone 5.  I transfer photos to a Windows 7 PC, using the USB cable.  Lately, the photos are appearing in Windows Explorer within monthly folders, with gibberish titles.  The folder names will be 8 random letters and numeric characters.  I tend to let photos build up, so there are about 2 years worth of these monthly folders… Between 20 and 25.  This is a huge hassle… I'm unable to tell what months are in each folder, by the folder name.…  Have to open each folder to see which month is in there.  I want to be able to look at all the photos on the iPhone in one view, as I was able to in the past.  How do I stop this foldering of photos, by months??  Thank you.  BC

    I have the same issue. I searched and finally got only one answer is -- Apple suggest customer using iMAC to transfer and backup photos instead of Windows. How great the solution is it!

  • If Apple is so full of geniuses, why can't they come up with a usb cable to connect the iPad to a printer? This would seem like the most intelligent first choice for those of us who are absolutely frustrated with iPad printing functionality.

    My sister has an iPad and an HP printer. She cant' print from her iPad even though a genius at the Apple Store sold the combination to her with the idea that it would be easy to do. Instead, I have to go to her place with my MacBook, she sends me an email, and I hook up my laptop to her printer to print what she needs. Why can't the Apple geniuses come up with a USB cable and an OS update to make it easy and NOT SO FRUSTRATING to print from the iPad?
    I've been a Mac user for fifteen years but I could not, in good conscience, recommend an iPad to anyone until Apple considers that ease of use does not include regularly getting frustrated with the easiest of tasks.

    all printers speak a diffrent "computer language" for a device to understand this language
    a driver is required
    some devices such a computers come with drivers for a long line of printers and other devices
    apple decided that it was better not to include that huge list of drivers as users would then not have
    much storage left for media and apps
    then apple let printer makers make apps for printing in app store and make printers support airprint

  • Anyone having problems tethering there camera and aperture 3 after upgrading to OS Lion?

    After installing OSX Lion I have not been able to capture via tether with my Canon 5d and Aperture 3. I can see the camera and tranfer images but I am not able to tether.

    Hi, I guess everyone is having a little bit different tethering issues. Mine was I couldn't get my files transferred into library. I would able to connect the camera, and even fire the shutter from computer, but nothing transferred through. I would just see a message says proccessing, then nothing, and shot counter stays at 0.
    Later on I found the solution for THAT problem. Turned out Aperture was taking pictures, but they stored all my photos in a root folder inside the library, and I was not able to see any previews in the aperture interface, which totally defeated the purpose of tethering. The work around for me after many trail and error was, I had to leave the "Version Name" block to Master File Name when I start a new tethering session. I can not use Custom rename feature, or nothing would get transferred...
    Hope this was your problem, and that's the way to solve it. I know some other people having disc permission issue and USB related issue...

  • Is anyone having an issue with saving Adobe Photoshop files to the server?

    Unable to save Photoshop files to the server. Has anyone faced the same problem?

    Two options. Doing either one worked.
    1st option
    In Photoshop preferences under File Handling set Preview to Never.
    This has been working for me all day. Maybe a couple of times I got something about not being able to save because of not having access to the file, but then the save as dialog comes up and hitting okay saves the file.
    Wasn't a big deal.
    2nd option
    Create a file (it didn't exist) in the /etc folder named nsmb.conf file, with the contents below.
    [default]
    streams=no
    Here's where I got the info.
    http://forums.adobe.com/message/4590780#
    Currently I'm doing option one, as it only turns off a feature in Photoshop and doesn't reconfigure anything in the OS.
    It's probably just a byproduct of an OS being updated (lots of things happening) and Apple will remedy it in 10.8.1. At least this works for now.

  • HT6030 Anyone Having Problems Scanning with an Epson WF-3520 Printer?

    Ever since I upgraded to Mavericks, the scanning function on my printer has slowed to a crawl and become unreliable, frequently hanging shortly after the scanner initializes.  The Epson web site points to Apple Software Update for a solution, indicating that there should be an Epson update available. But no such luck - at least that I can see.  Any suggestions or possible work-arounds?  Is there other scanning software that would work with 10.9 and my Epson?

    Please refer this KB doc link mentioned below and try troubleshooting scanner issues:

  • Anyone having screen bugs with iOS 5?  it seems the tactile screen goes crazy in Apple iOS software, i tried reinstalling, but the same thing happens. NB iPhone 4

    It seems the tactile screen goes crazy in Apple iOS software, I tried reinstalling iOS 5, but the same thing happens.  When I start typing, for wxample in messaging app, I'll press a letter, and several other letters are typed... and at times, the app just closes....
    My issue is with iPhone 4.
    Thanks

    Issue confirmed.
    I tried dialing in five times with each of the following settings:
    Connecting on LTE (with no confirmation boop-boop tone that I'm on the 3G Extender):  the telecon login worked five out of five times.  This is impractical for me as I have wretched LTE signal where I live and it snaps hard over to 1x signal every 2-5 minutes and drops my call.  That's why I got an extender!
    Connecting on 3G (after a #48 positive confirmation boop-boop tone that I'm on the 3G Extender):  telecon login worked zero out of five times.  I had stellar 3G signal, but the 'overdialing' DTMF problem was consistent and I was unable to connect to the telecon service.
    Thanks for the quick reply.  What do we try next?

  • TS1538 My computer and itunes won't recognise my ipod. It's not coming up anywhere, not even in the device manager as a camera or whatever the troubleshooting said it might say. Plugging it in with the USB cable just charges the device.

    Ipod is not connecting to itunes. It doesn't show up in itunes, 'my computer' or the device manager and plugging in the cord just charges the device.

    Hey, first off, i'd like to say i'm not extremely technical - but i'll try and keep up. i'm having more or less the same problem as JasperMack, only, iTunes is recognizing it as my brother's iPod - Not mine. I've searched through the device manager and i got nothing that will recognize it there. My iPod DOES however charge, it almost takes on the roll of my brother's - only problem is when i got to sync it, it says "no device avalible" or whatever. I got this iPod 2nd-Hand (probably a bad idea) and i have no idea what to do. This is the 1st time i've attempted to to plug it into my computer and it's already taking a flying leap into hte zone of "not working" anything???

  • Anyone having problems syncing iPhone 4S & 3GS wit Outlook after the recent software update?

    Trying to sync both phones with outlook (this was working perfectly till toady) but the contacts and calender have suddenly stopped syncing - I keep getting the following messages:
    "iTumes was unable to load provider data from Sync Services. Reconnect or try again later"
    "iTunes cannot sync apps to the iPhone because the apps installed on the iPhone could not be determined"
    Have tried restoring the original settings but have lost all contacts on the 4S as I had tried to sync it repeatedly earlier - now all is restored except for the contacts and calender.
    Please help. Thanks.

    Try updating to the latest version of iTunes.

  • I'm having problems with iPad 2 and my smart cover.  The attachment seems to be depolarized and it moves around causing the device to toggle and flash like its coming on or shorting.  Anyone having problems?

    I'm having problems with iPad 2 and my smart cover.  The attachment seems to be depolarized, trys to connect using the back (curved) edge of the magnetized bracket.  When I try to attach it, it moves around causing the device to toggle in a way that looks like the camera flash.  Anyone having problems? Help.

    Update. My carrier says the antenna of my iPhone 4s is not so good as the one in the iPhone 3G. They can't solve the problem. Their signal is too weak for the 4s at places I spend most of my time. Not the answer I expected, but I'm free to choose an other carrier. Hope this will help.

  • How to charge your Palm Centro via 64-bit Windows, with a USB cable

    Here is a way to recharge your Palm Centro on your 64-bit Windows computer, through a USB cable.  But first, a few brief explanatory notes...
    Note 1:  I have successfully used this method to charge my Palm Centro from my 64-bit Windows 7 computer.  This method probably works for other Palm devices and other 64-bit Windows versions (XP and Vist)...  but I haven't tested this on any other configurations.  Others may feel free to post their successes or failures with their setups.
    Note 2:  This method will NOT allow you to HotSync your Palm to the computer via USB.  All it does is let you charge your Palm via USB.  If you need to HotSync your Palm, and you have 64-bit Windows, you have to use Bluetooth or some other method.  To learn how to use Bluetooth to sync, search for "bluetooth sync 64-bit" or something like that on this forum.
    Note 3:  If you're wondering why someone would need to use this method - why not just plug the phone into a wall outlet, right? - it's because the Centro's charging jack can get messed up.  Mine has not worked properly for the last several months
    Note 4:  I will not be posting any follow-ups to this message.  This is my first (and only) post here...  I'm posting here because I am very grateful to this forum: It is here that I learned how (and why) to sync my Centro to my computer via Bluetooth, because Palm doesn't support 64-bit Windows. This is my way of saying "thank you"!  I'm not trying to be harsh by not following up...  it's just that I won't be checking this thread, and I don't want anyone to have bad feelings if they ask questions and I don't respond.  I'll be as thorough as I can in this one posting, though. 
    Note 5:  I cannot claim credit for actually discovering this solution.  I found it after HOURS of looking online... it was on some obscure website.  Unfortunately, I can't remember where I found the original solution, so I can't credit the discoverer here.  However, I have done my best to provide much more detailed instructions here.
    Note 6:  Lastly, Palm should support 64-bit Windows.  Period.  Some of you may say, "It's not Palm's fault - the company that makes the Palm OS is Access, and it's Access's fault for not supporting 64-bit Windows."  Well, this may be true, but Access has stated that Palm has not requested a 64-bit driver.  (In fact, you can call Access and ask them directly.)  And if Palm doesn't ask (and pay) for it, Access sure isn't going to create one on its own.  I used to LOVE Palm devices...  I've used Palms for 12 years now, and for most of that time, I heartily recommended Palms to all my friends.  But, between this problem and the other problems I've had with my current Centro and my previous Treo, I'm done with Palm.  No more for me.
    OK, here's how to charge your Palm (finally!)
    1)  If you haven't done so already, install the latest version of Palm Desktop / HotSync on your computer.  You can get this at palm.com, under the "support" section.  (Actually, I'm not sure if this is necessary, but I already had done this.)
    2)  As you're installing the software on your computer, toward the end of the process, do not actually sync your Palm to your computer.  Just cancel or whatever you have to do to avoid that step.  (Remember, the whole point here is that Palm does not have a driver compatible with 64-bit Windows, so you won't be able to sync via USB.)
    3)  If you don't already have it, get the PocketTunes application (also known as "pTunes") on your Palm device.  If you have to install the software, you may need to do so wirelessly or via a 32-bit Windows computer (because, again, Palm doesn't support 64-bit Windows).
    4)  Connect the Palm USB cable to your computer.  If you are using a desktop, plug into the USB ports on the BACK of your computer.  These ports are directly powered, whereas the ports on the front of your desktop may not be.  You'll want as much juice as possible to charge your Palm.
    5)  Connect the Palm USB cable to your Palm.
    6)  Turn on the Palm device, and open the PocketTunes application on your Palm.
    7)  PocketTunes will try to connect to Windows Media Player (on your desktop).  Tell your desktop to connect to Windows Media Player.  (You can save time by telling your desktop to do this automatically.)  When PocketTunes connects with Windows Media Player, you'll have a power connection via USB.
    8)  PocketTunes will eventually show that it is "Idle" on the Palm.
    9)  To confirm whether the Palm is charging, look for the charging light (on the Centro, it's on the upper left) to turn solid red.  You can also hit the home button on the Palm to see the battery / charging status.  To get the charging working, you may have to exit PocketTunes and come back into it a few times before the charging light comes on.  I have no idea why you have to do this; I just know what I wind up doing sometimes.  You don't have to unplug and replug the phone from the USB cable, or turn the phone off and on.  Just leave PocketTunes and come back to PocketTunes.
    10)  If you exit the PocketTunes application on the Palm, the Palm will still charge - but you'll get the constant and annoying "no driver" noise from Windows.  To avoid that sound, just keep the Palm on PocketTunes while you have the Palm plugged into the USB cable.
    11)  You can close Windows Media Player on the desktop once you have the Palm charging.
    12)  Once you have this set up properly, you can speed up the process by setting the HotSync cable button to PocketTunes - after all, that button no longer needs to be set up to HotSync via USB cable.
    When you have everything set up, here's what you would be doing on a regular basis:
    -- Plug USB cable (which is already plugged into your computer) into Palm
    -- Hit HotSync button on cable --> This starts PocketTunes --> PocketTunes automatically opens Windows Media Player on the computer
    -- See if charging light turns solid red --> If not, exit PocketTunes, then hit HotSync button on cable to start PocketTunes again
    -- Repeat until charging light turns solid red (success!)
    -- Once the Palm is charging, close Windows Media Player on desktop
    Best of luck to all who need this!

    Why do you want to create your own driver instead of what comes with the device? If you go that route, you need all of the low level USB RAW protocol from the vendor. Did you get that? Yoe are wasting your time if you don't have that. Is the driver from the vendor documented? If it's a USB connection, how does that connection show up in windows device manager?
