Blank conversation appearing in iMessage

Yesterday I deleted a phone number and the entire message thread from my iMessage. Tonight the contact reappeared in my iMessage, but there was no message with it. It just appears as an unsaved contact and an empty conversation. Any ideas?

This happened to me as well. I received an imessage with no text and no air bubble and just the contact name at the top/  Since there is no was to send/get a blank SMS, i believe this is an imessage issue. I believe that if you deleted a message thread from someone and then, providing that your iphone and the other persons iphone is able to imessage and has imessage turned on, you will get a blank imessage if that other person reopened the old message thread on their phone and/or was about to type you something but didn't.  I think it is because imessage sends your iphone a blank message window to reopen a 'potential' imessage conversation, even though one wasn't started and nothing was typed.  I tested this with a friend. After receiving a blank imessage from someone, I was curious, so I deleted a message thread with someone who i can send imessages with. I then had them reopen the conversation and start to type but not send something. I then received the same blank imessage window from them on my iphone, which confirms this explanation.

  • How can I turn off Recently Websites when opening new Safari window? After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed.

    How can I turn off Recently Visited Websites when opening new Safari window?
    After tapping on the two overlapping boxes on the bottom right of Safari, a new blank window appears with Favorites, but now in iOS 8, recently viewed websites are listed. How can I turn this function off? I do NOT want my new Safari windows to have history displayed of previous websites I visited. I only want my Favorites (on the top) to be displayed. Please help.
    Thank you for your time, patience, understanding, kindness, and concern.

    Thanks for replying, but that isn't the answer I am looking for.  Also, there is no + sign, UNLESS you do tap the overlapping boxes.
    Let me try to ask my question a little more clearly:
    When I tap the two overlapping boxes on the lower left (the option to Open New Windows), the new Window that appears will show your Bookmarked FAVORITES. But with my new iPhone 6, and the new iOS 8.0.2, when I tap the two boxes to open a New Window, my Bookmark Favorites show (as they always have and should), but below them, there is a dividing line underneath them, and it says Recently Viewed Websites, and has these websites available to tap.
    So my question is, HOW DO I TURN THESE OPTION OFF?
    *UPDATE  (10.13.14): Since I have asked this question, I no longer see these Recently Viewed Websites under my Bookmarked Favorites in my new Window tabs. So I hope that Apple fixed it, or somehow it was a mistake, or somehow I changed an Option on my iPhone 6 that stopped this for reoccurring.
    Thank you for your help bobseufert! I appreciate your concern, kindness, and the time to try to help. I am grateful.
    Have a blessed day.

  • The sharepoint my company uses no longer works properly with firefox, only a blank page appears, is there a fix for this?

    Hello,
    We currently use Microsoft SharePoint Server 2010 and it doesn't seem to be compatible with the latest version of Firefox (33). When I try to open a sharepoint page, only a blank page appears. I do not get any error messages. The sharepoint works with other browsers, such as Chrome.
    Is there a work around available so that we may continue to use Firefox?
    Thank you!

    Do either of these typical troubleshooting steps make any difference?
    When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
    (1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
    Use Command+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
    Alternately, you also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
    "3-bar" menu button (or Firefox menu) > Preferences > Advanced
    On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now"
    If you have a large hard drive, this might take a few minutes.
    (2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first). While viewing a page on the site, try either:
    * right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * (menu bar) Tools > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
    * click the globe or padlock to the left of the address in the address bar > More Information > "View Cookies"
    In the dialog that opens, you can remove the site's cookies individually.
    Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
    In case one of your extensions is involved, could you test the page in Firefox's Safe Mode? That's a standard diagnostic tool to deactivate extensions and some advanced features of Firefox. More info: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues using Safe Mode]].
    You can restart Firefox in Safe Mode using either:
    * "3-bar" menu button > "?" button > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    * Help menu > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
    Not all add-ons are disabled: Flash and other plugins still run
    After Firefox shuts down, a small dialog should appear. Click "Start in Safe Mode" (''not'' Reset).
    Any difference?

  • Unwanted blank pages appearing in 7.0.5 (but working in 9)

    I'm trying to create a form which has a front page and three optional additional sections that appear when the respective buttons are clicked. I need the form to work in Reader 7.0.5
    I've got it working just fine in LiveCycle 8.2 and Acrobat 9, but when it is opened in Reader 7.0.5 three blank pages appear after the front page, and as the optional sections are opened, they replace/fill-up these blank pages.
    Any help would be most gratefully received!
    Details:
    The form is targeted to 7.0.5 and saved as a dynamic XML form.
    I am not seeing any warnings, but when switching to Preview PDF, I do see the following under the log:
    "Invalid version: the current version of the XFA template model exceeds the capability of Acrobat/Adobe Reader 7.0.5"
    The buttons to reveal the page have the following formcalc scripts:
    Form.Top.OnePager.FrontPage.MoreInfoButton.Hide::click - (FormCalc, client)
    MoreInformation.presence = "hidden"
    Hide.presence = "hidden"
    Show.presence = "visible"
    Form.Top.OnePager.FrontPage.MoreInfoButton.Hide::initialize - (FormCalc, client)
    MoreInformation.presence = "hidden"
    Hide.presence = "hidden"
    Show.presence = "visible"
    etc

    Could be caused by many reasons.
    Is the paragraph format set to skip a line the first time it is printed (SPACE AFTER setting)?
    Is the data causing it to overflow across the line?
    Is there a line feed in the actual SAPscript (like a "/" paragraph format)?

  • What causes blank pages appearing suddenly in an autoflowed-text document?

    CS5.5, english version.
    The complete book was built-up and all master pages were applied . When reopening the file, several blank pages appeared at two places in the document. The text flow was not interrupted, but seamed «hidden» under a non-existing white layer. The software showed «Master page applied», but the pages were blank, imposible to select any object or to place a new text frame. It was also impossible to reapply the master page (the pages were still blank after). We could not access the hidden part of text, even if it was obviously still present, and we had no choice but rebuild a new document.
    We don't know what caused this very disturbing bug, and we would avoid it to reappear again! If someone knows a trick, you're welcome!
    Version : Indesign CS 5.5, en anglais.
    Le livre était monté en entier avec pages maîtresses appliquées. Lors d'une réouverture du fichier, plusieurs pages vides sont apparues, à deux endroits dans le document. Le texte n'était pas interrompu, mais semblait «caché» sous un calque blanc. Le logiciel affichait l'icône de la page maîtresse appliquée, mais la page demeurait vide. Impossible de sélectionner une boîte de texte ni de parvenir à réappliquer la page maîtresse. Nous n'avons pas réussi à accéder à la portion de texte «cachée» sous ces pages vides, bien qu'elle n'ait de toute évidence pas été perdue.
    Nous n'avons pas trouvé d'autre solution que de recommencer le montage à zéro à partir d'un nouveau document, mais nous ne savons pas ce qui a causé ce problème, ni comment éviter qu'il survienne à nouveau.
    Si quelqu'un a déjà rencontré cette anomalie et peut m'informer, bienvenue!

    I'm afraid I don't have any good news for you, though I was able to get the text to reappear by deleting the blank pages and inserting new ones, then rethreading. Youy could do this, but I suspect it is a short-term fix that won't last a day and more important, that output will fail.
    ID seems to think the frames on the blank pages are lines with astronomically long lengths and they seem to be sheared as well. Needless to say that seems to be some sort of corruption in the file. The reason that I don't have good news is that I've been completely unable to export anything useful for repair out of the file and reimport it-- neither .idml or tagged text. In all cases I get an error message that the  either the file does not exist, it is in use or I don't have permission. I know the files exist -- I can open the text file in a text editor, and I can see the components of the .idml file if I change the extension to .zip, but I can't convince any version of ID to access either of them.
    I looked through the file history and noticed that this file began life as a CS4 file that was converted to CS5.5 in August of 2011. I think that's the source of the problem. From time to time we get reports of unexplainable glitches or files that will not output, or just refuse to open at some point, even though they were fine hours earlier, and quite often it turns out that these are legacy files that were directly updated in a newer version. Because of this I now recommend that all legacy files that are to be converted be exported to .inx or .idml from the original version, then that exported file should be opened in the new version.
    Actually I had one more thought, and it seems to have been at least partly successful. As I mentioned, I was able to export the main story to InDesign Tagged Text and open that in a text editor (Notepad in this case, since I'm on PC). I tried saving the file from notepad with a new name and lo and behold I can now import it into a new file or use it to replace the text in the original. I tried the replacement, and exporting another .idml. but that still fails to reopen, so the corruption is not in the text of the main story. A .idml file export from a new .indd with the resaved tagged text placed in it also is working.
    This means you actually have a good shot at rebuilding this file fairly quickly. Export the stories to tagged text, open those in a plain text editor of your choice and resave as plain text, then place them into a new document with the same page dimensions and margins (rebuild the master pages from scratch in the new file). Make a backup copy of the file with just the text, and make sure it is working properly and that you can export to .idml and PDF, then add the images and check again. I think this is going to work, though it may take a few hours.
    DON'T overwrite any of the files you have already -- use new names, and do a save As a the end of each session or at any major change point adding a version number to the name so you have a good backup version chain in case something goes wrong again. Good luck.

  • Ios8 keyboard not appearing in imessage

    Since updating to ios8, the keyboard sometimes refuses to appear in imessage, but audio messages can be left.  Rebooting seems to fix, and occasionally going to email, then back to message will fix.  Anyone know how to fix permanently?  I've installed Swype, Swiftkey and Emoji as third-party keyboards.

    A restart should solve your problem temporarily, but there are several keyboard issues that I am having that seem to be very stubborn.
    This problem happens with both third party keyboards and the iOS 8 standard English keyboard. I have Swype and SwiftKey installed, and I've tried different combinations of the built-in English keyboard, Swype, and Swiftkey: each keyboard by itself, and each keyboard as the primary, second, or third option, in the Settings -> General -> Keyboard -> Keyboards panel. I even removed all third-party keyboards from my phone, and the keyboard still wouldn't show up. The only solution was to restart, but a few days later the problem reappears.
    The other issue I'm having is that the text box seems to get deselected in between the time I tap on a text box to type in text, and when the keyboard actually shows up. So, I'll open the App Store, iMessage, etc. tap on the text box, the keyboard shows up, but when I type no text shows up in the text box. However, the keyboard will begin showing suggestions to me, so, to the keyboard, I am typing something, it's just not going to the text box I initially selected.
    Hope I helped at least some.

  • Is there a keyboard shortcut (or custom) to close notifications that appear from iMessage, ical, etc. on a macbook pro?

    Is there a keyboard shortcut (or a custom keyboard shortcut) to close notifications that appear from iMessage, ical, etc. on a macbook pro - the notifications that appear on the top right of the macbook. For example, I do not want to go to my trackpad and click "Close" on the notification. I simply want to trigger a hotkey or keyboard shortcut that will close the notification as I see it.
    Thanks so much!

    No, but this might be better for you.

  • In my iPhoto library, only some images appear as thumbnails.  The rest are blank but appear briefly when scrolling through or properly when double clicked.  Any ideas?

    In my iPhoto library, only some images appear as thumbnails.  The rest are blank but appear briefly when scrolling through or properly when double clicked.  Any ideas?

    Option 1
    Back Up and try rebuild the library: hold down the command and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto Library Database from automatic backup.
    If that fails:
    Option 2
    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one. .

  • Unable to download candy crush on iPad, all restrictions are off but blank page appears when directed to download from internet

    Have updated software to latest version, ensured all restrictions are off, can only find guides and cheats in App Store but not the actual game. Have tried to download from internet but get redirected back to App Store where blank page appears and nothing comes up....

    I also encountered this problem. I'm afraid I didn't meticulously document my work, but here are the step I took that might be relevant. I downgraded to IE9 and then down to IE8. I tried the
    BypassSSLNoCacheCheck and BypassHTTPNoCacheCheck settings in the registry, which didn't work for me. I tried moving the location of the temporary internet files folder by modifying it directly in the registry:
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ User Shell Folders
    HKEY_CURRENT_USER \ Software \ Microsoft \ Windows \ CurrentVersion \ Explorer \ Shell
    This didn't work either. While I could see that I had the invisible content.ie5 folder in there, plus the randomly named folders, there was nothing cached in those folders. Cacls.exe showed
    that the user had full control, and I could past files into those folders. This seemed to rule out a problem with permissions on the temp ie files folder. 
    The big clue for me was this thread when someone said that it worked for the administrator account, but not others. While logged in as the affected user, I tried deleting:
    HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Internet Explorer (the entire folder, with all its subkeys)
    and also: HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Internet Settings (again, the entire folder, along with all its subkeys).
    I tried running IE again, and downloads work again! In the internet control panel, I now see a path listed for the temporary files folder (the path I specified), and the cache is set to 50MB
    now instead of being stuck at 0. I haven't tried updating back to IE9 yet.
    I suspect that changing the location of the temporary IE files folder was unessecary, and that all that I really needed to do was delete the two regkey folders. IE10 may be adding some setting
    there that gets left after uninstalling it that causes IE9 and IE8 to choke. Hopefully this will save someone the trouble of rebuilding profiles.

    Safari always opens at the web page last viewed.  There is no home page for mobile Safari.  To open a web page, tap the address field (on the left side of the title bar), then type the web address and tap Go.  Or you can use the search field (at the right side of the title bar) to iniate a search.

    Okay - let's cut to the chase...
    If the Menu Bar (File, Edit... Help) shown in my screenshot below is not visible, use CTRL+B to display it. Then click on Help/Check for Updates. If one is available, you will be able to select it at this time.
    Note the item at the bottom of the list; About iTunes. Selecting that will show you which version of iTunes you are using.
    An alternative method to display the Menu Bar is click on the box in the top left of your iTunes window...
