Can I back up my SMS from my iPhone to my computer

I was wondering if Anyone knows of a way to back up SMS messages from my iPhone to my Mac computer so they will be forever saved (using a free service or app only please).
I want to be able to keep a trail of conversations held from certain people & not lose the messages should I ever choose to change phones.  Too many times I have lost messages when I have changed to different phone
Oh if anyone knows how I can do the same from an old Nokia E71 on to my Mac computer too, that would be great as well

You can use this to copy them from your phone & save them on your computer:

Note: No way to add them back to your phone though.

    I was told I can use itunes to back up My contact but I can't seem to find how I could do that?

    Does anyone know how I can get my iPhone 4S photos into iPhoto? I'm on 6.0 (10A403) version iPhone and I have a Mac.  I've read the how to's but there are no photos even after I select my device.

  • Downloaded pics from computer to iPhone using iTunes, computer crashed, now I can't download the transferred pics off my iPhone to new computer

    I Had my iPhone synced to a computer, I transferred some pics from computer to iPhone, computer then crashed. Now I can't transfer the transferred pics from my iPhone to another computer. How do I get these pics off my phone without losing them. Currently cannot update my phone because there isn't enough memory.

    I do not need to get pics from my back-up on my computer. I had pics on a computer, I transferred some pics from the computer to the iphone, the computer hard drive/motherboard then crashed. Now I cannot get those same pics off my phone because the computer it was synced too crashed. That's what I'm trying to do, get those pics off my phone, they are taking too much storage space and I can't update my phone because there isn't enough memory.
    I know.  That is exactly what I addressed.    The iPhone is not a storage/backup device.
    Have you failed to maintain a backup copy of your computer?
    You can e-mail them to yourself.

  • Hi! Just got my new ihpone 4 yesterday, but i'm having issues in texting a specific contact. sending sms or iMessages works perfectly fine with all my contacts apart from 1,which is even using my same network, though i can call it and receive sms from it.

    My Quad is as quiet with 10.4.5 as it was on arrival Jan 31, with 10.4.2
    Altivec Fractal Carbon gives the CPU too much chance to cool down. I've got other ways to drive the CPU to sustained 100% load. Yes, the fans speed up, but it's still pretty quiet. I've run it at 100% for hours.
    I like the idea of taking things gradually. If you can wait a few days before making big changes, it can make things much easier. 3-4 weeks is very conservative, but great if you have that much patience.
    My Quad has been up full-time since I got it. Works perfectly.

    You have to back them up to a computer. You would import them either to iPhoto or to the Photos app in your PC:

  • How do I back up photos from my iphone 5 to computer?

    I cannot seem to back up my photos from my iphone 5 to my computer.  I turn off icloud back up on my phone, hook up to my deskstop...which opens itunes.  I sync, but the photos do not back up.  If I go to the photos tab in itunes, I see where I can copy photos from my desktop to my phone, but not the other way around.  I am sure I am missing something easy and basic.  Please advise me!  thank you!

  • How can I delete my icloud account from my iphone, since it doesn't synch with my ipad?

    How can I delete my icloud account from my iphone 4, since it doesn't sync with my ipad mini?

    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, tap Edit, 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 shouldn't need to verify the old account).  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.
