Apple wireless BT keyboard with TEXT MESSAGING?

I know that I can sync the Apple wireless bluetooth keyboard with the my iPhone 4, but I just want to verify that it will work with text messaging, in addition to the usual email, etc. apps. Frankly, that's the main reason I need it. I messed up my elbow from texting so much. I don't want to, but I MUST text a lot, so I figured I'd get the keyboard to save elbow injuries. Sounds silly -- lugging around a wireless keyboard in order to text... but it actually wouldn't be so bad. I do a lot of texting from my house, anyway.
One more thing -- The wireless keyboard can only be paired with one device at a time, right?

The Bluetooth keyboard will work with the messaging application.
I know I always turn the Bluetooth off on the iPhone so when I pull out my keyboard it is a bit of a pain in the ***. Granted I only use it with long emails on the road that would take an hour to write with the keyboard on the iPhone, so it's not too bad. The iPad dock keyboard will also work with the iPhone and iOS4.x so if you need a keyboard and don't want to deal with the Bluetooth than that is an option too, just a thought.
As far as the Bluetooth keyboard goes it can only be paired with one device at a time.

  • I replaced my iPhone with a Galaxy 5 and am not receiving all of my text messages. The sales person told me to remove my phone number from iTunes to stop this from happening. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages?

    I replaced my iPhone with a Samsung Galaxy5 and I am not receiving all of my text messages now. The rep at the store told me to go to iTunes and take my phone # off of the account and that would fix the problem. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages anyway?

    You need to remove your phone number from the iMessage system.

  • Caller ID - does it work with text messages?

    hi there , I set up callerID.
    tried to call a number in malaysia, the callerID doesn't show up. perhaps it varies from country to country
    however, what I really want to know is, does caller ID work with text messages? I send SMS Thru skype, and the receiver will see the caller ID ?

    I unfortunately have not found anything out.  I also have since purchased a 2011 Nissan Murano and still have the Rogue.  From time to time in the Rogue the caller ID works, but it paired ok after several tries with my Murano and the caller ID seems to work, but I dont drive that vehicle daily its my husbands.  I wish Apple would do something to fix this bluetooth issue everyone else I know with a Nissan and bluetooth does not have this issue its totally something to with Apple.  My Murano does not have Nav its only an SL.  Good luck!

  • No phone icon to answer incoming calls with text message

    I have a brand new iPhone 5 with iOS 6.1.4.
    When I have an incoming call, I do not get the small telephone icon on the bottom right of the screen, so I have no access to options such as answer with text message. What can be done to activate this?

    You search your iPhone for the Phone app and put it back there.
    Or tap in Settings > General > Reset > Reset Home Screen layout button

  • Phone is really slow with text messages

    hi, im new here and lookin for a little help. iv had the phone for a few months and now my curve freezes when i try to open a text message. also when i press send it freezes up. i dont have to restart it or anything but it takes about 7 seconds to regain itself. this only happens with text messages. emails work fine, facebook notifications work fine. i send and receive quite a bit of texts, emails, and facebook notifications and i have 14 applications. i did the update/ recovery& reboot thing on my computer. i have wifi preferred as my connection preference and tmobile is my mobile network. any tips? or do i have to just live with this?
    EDIT: i searched around on the forum a little bit and resolved the issue. i didnt know that it was only happening when i texted one person because i mostly only text this one person. but i guess i had to go to my phone book and text this person thru that instead of just replying. after that i can open and reply with no problem. sorry for takin up space on the forum. im new lol

    Sometimes I think I don't get told about a message until I unlock my phone and when I do I get a notification and a text tone as I unlock and it can be off a conversation I was having 10/15 minutes ago.

  • Can I use a non apple wireless hard drive with time machine?

    Can I use a non apple wireless hard drive with time Machine?

    Some NAS (network storage) systems do claim to support Time Machine, with varying levels of success. For example, the Synology units have this feature. They're not officially supported by Apple, though.

    For Instagram you can try and uninstall and reinstall the app and see if that fixes it. But if not you can try and resetting all settings, Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings.

  • How can i buy Apple Wireless arabic Keyboard in Malaysia

    i want to buy Mac 5K but i need arabic keyboard which is not available in Malaysia apple store and it is available in USA apple store ...  how can i buy Apple Wireless arabic Keyboard in Malaysia ? or shipping to Malaysia ?

    Apple stores do not ship outside their own country, so you cannot get it from Apple.  Nobody in these forums represents any store, so you have to contact computer dealers in Malaysia or elsewhere directly yourself and see if they can make a special order for you.
    There is no need to use an Apple wireless keyboard, any other one will also work.

  • I cant receive photos with text messages on my iphone 4s

    I cant receive photos with text messages on my iphone 4s. Do I need to change a setting on the phone?

    If you scroll up and don't see that button, then there are no more messages to see.
    Here's a sample image I found on Google that shows the button.

  • Sending pictures with text messages on iPhone 4

    I am no longer able to send pictures with text messages on my iPhone 4.  I used to have this capability, but it was lost with one of the software updates.
    This function is not one of the options when I attempt to send a photograph.  Also the camera icon next to the text entry bar in Messaging does not work.
    How can I get this capability back?

  • Trouble with text messages going to the wrong person

    I have four family members all on the same Apple ID account.  Text messages are going to the wrong people when sent among family members.  Text A going to B ends going to C.  Not sure what the problem is.  Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    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!!
