Can no longer search SMS texts

After updating to ios 8, I can no longer search for SMS messages that were sent/received prior to the up date. Same issue with 8.0.2.

I tried the "Language & Region" solution multiple times, however it didn't work for me.
I then went in to the keyboard, turned of Emoji and Spanish (I never turned Spanish on to my knowledge, so I am guessing that it added to my keyboards when I switched language. Search works like a charm in both the "Messages" search bar and the "Spotlight Search"
Settings> General> Keyboard> Keyboards> English> QWERTY (I already had on QWERTY and never actually went to it, but just letting you know what mine is set on)

I can no longer search Apple Mail

I can no longer search Apple Mail.
I type my search criteria into the box, press return. Nothing happens.
This used to work perfectly. Any ideas?

First, open the Spotlight preference pane and select the Privacy tab. If any folders are listed, remove them and wait for Spotlight to finish re-indexing, then test. Otherwise, see below.
Step 1
These instructions must be carried out as an administrator. If you have only one user account, you are the administrator.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
syslog -F '$Time $Message' -k Sender mdworker -o -k Message Rne Norm -k Sender mds | tail | pbcopy
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing the key combination command-V. I've tested these instructions only with the Safari web browser. If you use another browser, you may have to press the return key after pasting.
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign ($) to appear.
The output of the command will be automatically copied to the Clipboard. If the command produced no output, the Clipboard will be empty. Paste into a reply to this message.
The Terminal window doesn't show the output. Please don't copy anything from there.
If any personal information appears in the output, anonymize before posting, but don’t remove the context.
Step 2
Enter the following command as in Step 1 and post the output:
mdutil -as 2>&- | pbcopy
You can then quit Terminal.
Step 3
Launch the Console application in the same way you launched Terminal. In the Console window, look under the heading DIAGNOSTIC AND USAGE INFORMATION on the left for crash reports related to Spotlight. If you don't see that heading, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar. A Spotlight crash report has a name beginning in "mds" or "mdworker" and ending in ".crash". Select the most recent such report, if any, from the System and User subcategories and post the entire contents—the text, please, not a screenshot. In the interest of privacy, I suggest that, before posting, you edit out the “Anonymous UUID,” a long string of letters, numbers, and dashes in the header of the report, if it’s present (it may not be.)
Please don’t post any other kind of diagnostic report, such as hang logs—they're very long and not helpful.

TS4268 iPhone users can no longer send me text messages now that i've moved to a non-iOS phone. Can iMessage service or Message users be refreshed to see me as a normal text message recipient?

iPhone users can no longer send me text messages now that i've moved to a non-iOS phone. Can iMessage service or Message users be refreshed to see me as a normal text message recipient?
I still have an iPhone, but haven't turned it on for weeks. And there's no SIM in it, so no cell service, just WiFi. When I turn it on after a prolonged period of having it off (weeks), a bunch of messages popup that should have been forwarded to my new phone (same phone number and carrier as when I was an iPhone user) but appear to sit in iMessage queue indefinitely instead.
I'm guessing it has to do with the link that's made when an iPhone first realizes that it's talking to another iPhone and defaults, for all future texts, to iMessage. You know, the green to blue switch. How does that association get undone?
Has anyone else seen this, and if so, is there a fix?

your number can remain on the imessage server for some time

When adding Custom Text to a slideshow in Aperture, I can no longer centre the text in the text box. Is there something I am missing? I am running Aperture 3.6 on Yosemite. Any ideas gratefully received, thanks.

Which theme are you using?
When I am adding text in a slideshow, I found, that it will depend on the theme, if the text will be centered or flushed left. The Classic and Ken Burns theme are centering the text, the newer themes will present it flushed left.
I found no way to select a custom justification for the text.

How can i programmatically search, hightlight text and make annotations in PDF using JQuery?

JQuery is part of the OS and Acrobat/Reader is very isolated from the contact with the OS. If you were to write a plug-in in and add it to your copy of Acrobat/Reader you could then use that plug-in to access the OS shell.

Right after the firefox upgrade I can no longer acess my text window in my yahoo mail account. I cant figure out why.

Once firefox completed its upgrade I can no longer access my text window/box in my yahoo mail account. Which means I cannot text from my mail account now. I cant figure out why this is happening.

Using Firefox 8.0 on a MacBook Pro I can no longer enlarge the text on web pages by sliding apart two fingers. Why?

I just downloaded Firefox 8.0.1. I have a MacBook Pro running Mac OS X 10.5.8. In the past, I could easily enlarge text on a web page by sliding two fingers apart, or likewise, make the text smaller by pinching the fingers together. I can no longer do this with the latest version of Firefox. If I run Safari instead, I can still use this feature of the Mac. Is there a setting I need to change? Or is it a glitch in the new version of Firefox?

Some gestures have been removed in Firefox 4+ versions.
You can restore the zoom feature by changing the values of the related prefs on the about:config page.
* browser.gesture.pinch.in -> cmd_fullZoomReduce
* browser.gesture.pinch.in.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
* browser.gesture.pinch.out -> cmd_fullZoomEnlarge
* browser.gesture.pinch.out.shift -> cmd_fullZoomReset
* browser.gesture.pinch.latched -> false
To open the about:config page, type about:config in the location (address) bar and press the "Enter" key, just like you type the url of a website to open a website. 
If you see a warning then you can confirm that you want to access that page. 
*Use the Filter bar at to top of the about:config page to locate a preference more easily.
*Preferences that have been modified show as bold (user set).
*Preferences can be reset to the default via the right-click context menu if they are user set
*Preferences can be changed via the right-click context menu: Modify (String or Integer) or Toggle (Boolean)

Can I auto forward sms/text messages to another phone?

I find myself in the unenviable position of carrying two phones and I need to have my main phone (iPhone 4) forward sms/text messages to my other phone (Samsung Infuse).
After tinkering with the various setting on the phone, and trying to Google it for the past couple of days I haven't been able to find ANYTHING!
If anyone knows of any apps, settings, tips, tricks, or work arounds I would really appreciate it!
Thanks,
GBA

Take a look at Google Voice. I use it so I don't have to carry 2 phones. One personal, one for work.
It gives you a new number that you can direct to ring multiple phones simultaneously if you like. It will also handle text messages and forward them for you.
Even if you're only going to carry one phone, this gives you a # you can have other people call without having to give them your personal #.
There are other neat tricks you can pull with this. For example, it can display your GV # in the caller ID for incoming calls instead of the actual callers #. If you have a plan that gives you unlimited calling to specific #s, that means all those calls can be free if you add it to your friends/family/Alist/whatever they call it now.
You can also set time restrictions so that it will only forward calls/messages during certain hours or to different phones at different times. When I'm working or on call, I get calls from the office. If I'm not, they won't ring through (they want me on call, they can pay me for it. lol)
I don't know if it will be helpful for you, but it might be. The service is free with cheap international calling rates.

Is it possible to send and receive sms text messages from my Mac?

I actually forgot to mention that bit, as I always turn on the instant messaging field by default in my template settings. For those that don't know how to do this, just open the address book preferences (Command + Comma) or from the Address Book menu, select Preferences, go to the Template tab, click the 'Add Field' drop down, and select "instant messaging'. I did define those SMS numbers as "AIM" for the 'type'.
Not really keen on the idea that I have to leave my AIM account logged in as I rarely use it these days, but I haven't found a way to work around that yet.

New owner of a Z10 Can't send an SMS text

My wife and i have newly acquired Z10's, using release 10.2.1.2976. We are completely unable to send SMS texts using addresses out of our address books.
Two things hapopen: 1. at the lower right corner the screen does not say "SEND" it says "SUBMIT"
2. We bot get the error meg "This contact address is invalid"
What is going on?
I have a clear impression from this forum that there are lote of text problems with the 10, but i have not seen this exact one
Solved!
Go to Solution.

I guess the obvious question is, do you have your Verizon SIM card in the device? In the past, Verizon has not required SIM cards, they do now on the Z10.
At the top right of your home screen, do you have a signal with Verizon? 3G, 4G, or what?

TS2755 I can no longer search on my Messages - say I was looking for an SMS received from contacts

It appears my messages are no longer indexed as I can't search any more; the screen just goes blank like what I'm searching for doesn't exist. Is there a way to re-index my messages so search works?

How many messages are on your phone?
Try resetting the phone (no data loss): press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.
