How do I delete an individual text completely off my phone

How do I delete an individual text completely off my phone, so that the timestamp of the deleted text doesn't appear anymore.
ios 8, seems to keep deleted texts on the phone, if I delete a text message it will be removed from the message app but the person who I texted and the timestamp of the message still stays. this ends up showing the person in my messages with a timestamp for a message that doesn't exist.

Well you can try this, but I'm not sure it's going to work if this is an entirely new ID.
Go to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your current iCloud ID. Tap edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change. Then edit the name of the account to change it back to your old email address. You can now use your current password to turn off Find My iPhone on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then go to Settings>iCloud, tap Delete Account and choose Delete from My iDevice when prompted (your iCloud data will still be in iCloud). Next, go back to https://appleid.apple.com and change your primary email address and iCloud ID name back to the way it was. Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.

After you delete individual text messages, the trash can will disappear and you can only DELETE ALL or cancel! It will come back after awhile but you can't delete everything you want to in one shot!

AAfter you delete several individual text messages, your trash can will disappear, and then you'll only have the option to delete all or cancel

And the message remains after a hard reset?

I have noticed that with the new IOS 8.1 update when we do this the text messages no longer go back in chronological order. Do you have this problem? It is really frustrating me.
Yes, that's the way it works now.

I have deleted hundreds of pictures, I've deleted apps, deleted emails and texts, and I've turned off and deleted backups of apps on icloud and it is still telling me that there is not enough icloud storage available for my phone to be back

I have deleted hundreds of pictures, I've deleted apps, deleted emails and texts, and I've turned off and deleted backups of apps on icloud and it is still telling me that there is not enough icloud storage available for my phone to be backed up. I am supposed to do this before I go to the Apple store today to get my phone fixed. Can someone please help me? I have done almost everything.

This article explains ways to reduce your iCloud storage: Managing your iCloud storage. In addition to what's mentioned in the article, if you have lots of photos and videos attached to your text messages, these are all included in your iCloud backup and deleting them can sometimes significantly reduce the size of your backup.
If worse comes to worse, back up your phone to your computer rather than iCloud. To do this, connect it to your computer, open iTunes and go to File>Devices>Back Up and to File>Devices>Transfer Purchases. This can be used to restore your data when you get your phone back. (In fact, it's faster because you don't have to download the data from iCloud.)

HT3529 New 7.0 version update changes the way text messages are presented. In the new version, I cannot figure out how to delete individual texts. I can delete entire strings of messages, but I want to delete old texts, but keep the recent texts

The new version of the software for my iPhone 4 changed the way text messages are managed.
I can no longer delete individual texts from a text "conversation." I also have not figured out how to forward texts, which I was able to do in the prior version.
Anyone know a way to edit out individual messages without losing the entire string?
Anyone know if there is a way to forward messages?

When you have the conversation open, if you tap & hold on a message bubble, you should get a new menu pop-up. It should have 2 options "Copy" and "More..." If you select the "More..." option it will then let you select one or more message bubbles and delete the selected ones by hitting the trach can icon in the lower left corner. As for forwarding, you probably just select the "Copy" option, then paste the contents into a new message...

Deleting listing in Messages log after deleting individual text

I'm using an iPhone 6 and iOS 8.0.2. Pretend a contact sends me a text at 6:02 and then again at 8:25. If I delete the individual message from 8:25, but keep the 6:02 message, why does the text stay listed in the messages log as 8:25, and not jump back down in the chronological order to 6:02? When I used IOS 7 on my iphone 5, it would jump back to the last chronological message for the Messages listings. Does this make sense? Help!!

hmm, there might be.
I wanted to deploy Updates next Tuesday to two sites (one local, another via WAN Link). I have a larger package with all the updates for Win 7, Office 2010 and 2013. I replicated that package to the remote site over the WAN Link and got a failure message
that the drives were full.
When I checked the remote DP, there were 15GB free on the main drive. We added another 100GB one and used the "Content Library Transfer Tool" (from the SCCM 2012 R2 Toolkit) to transfer the files. The tool crashed at the end (Stopped Working), but it looks
like it transferred everything. The only thing that wasn't changed was the Registry Entry for the LibraryContent, which I adjusted for the new Drive.
I deleted the SCCMContentLib, SMSPKG$ and SMSSIG$ from the older drive. All this was done with the network cable unplugged, as a condition for this was that there be no activity on the DP during this process.
I then created a test package with only 2 updates that I distributed to the remote site. This worked OK. I removed the content again and then proceeded with triggering the distribution of the big package (Win7&Office). I guess it could be that he is
deleting the former content ebfore distributing it again to the remote site?

Deleting individual texts and not whole history

Hi
How do I delete individual texts from a person and not the whole chat history? This used to be easy on my old bold as each message seemed to be treated seperately whereas on my new curve it's more like a messenger conversation.
Is it just me being old?
Thanks
Ed
Solved!
Go to Solution.

While in a specific conversation, scroll to a certain text message and delete.
I updated my curve to a new software and the SMS view is different. In order to delete a certain text, I mus view it in my conversation unlike the old software where each text is separated. Rather than in conversations now.

Delete individual text not entire conversation

Hi, all!
I have an iPhone 6 plus. I have lost the ability to delete a single line in a text. I can select it but it only gives me the option to delete the entire conversation. The trash bin icon is gone. Any thoughts?

Hi jennifermckelvey,
I apologize, I'm a bit unclear on the issue you are describing. Are you not being given the option to to delete the individual message when you do the following?
Delete a message. Touch and hold a message or attachment, tap More, select additional items if desired, then tap .

Deleting blocks of texts/messages/calls without doing them individually

Is there a way to delete multiple text/calls/messages (like highlighting and/or grouping) without having to do each one individually?
Thanks!!!

I apologize, but you can not delete all the texts, messages, and calls on the device at once.
For calls:
To reset call log, while in the Call Log view, touch the Menu key, then touch "Clear Call Log"
For messages:
1) Go to Home
2) Then Go to "Messages"
3) Next Select "Menu"
4) Then Choose "Delete"
5) Now select the group of messages you wish to delete.
For emails:
When you are in your inbox, hit the menu button and it will give you the option to "delete." When you click "delete," all your emails will display, and you can click on the X next to individual messages to delete them. If you press menu again it will bring up an option to "mark all. " Then you can delete all the email messages selected.

When I import photos taken from my Ipod Touch 4 to My Mac Desktop, I click delete photos on ipod, but they do not delete. Is the only way to delete them individually (I have 1,400 photos!) or is there a way to delete them all in one go?

I realise you can you can delete them on your ipod slowly as you have to click on each one, and you can restore your ipod, but surely there is a way to get around this?

Thanks If anyone can help me.

Download/install an app is a know possible solution.
3. Install another app from the App Store
If all user-installed apps are not launching, it could be an Apple ID authorization issue. Download and install an app that isn't already installed on your device to reset this information.
Note: If you have installed apps using multiple Apple ID accounts, you may need to perform this step for each account.

Delete only one text message at a time w/o deleting entire conversation?

Does anyone know how to delete only one text message at a time without having to delete the entire conversation? The only two options I get are "clear conversation" or "cancel."
HP Windows XP

That's the same option I get too. It seems to me I recall seeing somewhere that you could delete individual messages in a thread but I don't remember where.
It seems silly to limit deletions to only the entire conversation since with most phones you can delete individual messages.

How do i delete all my text messages to speed up my phone

How do I delete all my text messages at one time on my s4?

That's a great way to clear up memory and speed things up, 357tony. What message app do you use with your S4? Is it Messaging, Message+, or one downloaded from the Play Store?
