Can not delete individual messages on ios8

I can not delete individual messages in iMessage after I "upgraded" to ios8.  If you hold down on the message, tap "more", THERE IS NO TRASH CAN ANYWHERE ON THE SCREEN.  There is no option I have found anywhere, except to delete the entire conversation.  Please help.

Thanks heaps.....the trying to enter a reply, then swiping downward on the keyboard worked.  That is the first useful suggestion I've seen for multiple posts with this question, so thank you very much.  Hopefully the next update will fix that problem so you don't have to go through the delete process the long way, but happy to use it as a temporary measure in the mean time.
Thanks for taking the time to help.

    Because you can't. Plain and simple. This is asked at least once a day here.

  • Can not delete text messages without phone freezing when i reset it text messages are back

    can not delete text messages without phone freezing when i reset it text messages are back...help taking up a lot of space.

    Try this...
    Close out all apps (double click the home button and swipe up) then delete one thread.  Do a hard reset of the phone or ipad, then wait a few minutes and it should be gone.  I just did this with a thread that had thousands of txt and it worked for me.  The older phones just don't have much processing power.

  • Can't delete individual messages since the IOS8 upgrade.

    Since the IOS8 upgrade, when trying to delete individual messages, the trash can no longer appears in the lower left corner. All that appears now is the camera and the area to write a message. I have reset all settings and rebooted multiple times. Initially after doing this the trash can will reappear. I delete some messages but then when I go back to delete more messages, the camera reappears. The only resolution I have found is to shut my phone down and restart it, but this is only a very temporary fix and is not ideal.

    I have this issue also, it appears as though the Messages app is not detecting the context and switching to the right menu at the bottom. In addition, the other problems that show up when this happens are:
    If you try to take a photo to send in a message, the camera app opens but the keyboard continues to cover the bottom of the screen (so you can't press the shutter button).
    When you respond to an incoming message, the cursor doesn't automatically appear in the text box - you type characters, but they go nowhere. You have to actually tap once in the message box before typing.
    When you tap send, even though the audio recording button isn't visible, as soon as your finger hits the screen the audio button pops up and a recording begins.
    I would really like to go back to iOS 7. Even after 3 minor updates, iOS 8 is still very sloppy. Bad Apple!

  • I can not delete unwanted message because I am not getting the delete button popup to activate deletion. Where did it go!?

    I can not delete unwanted emails because my delete prompt button is not appearing after I prompt edit and choose my email to edit. How do I make the prompt button to appear on edit page as before?    Thanks MRH

    Close out of the mail app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
    then do a reset, no data loss.  Hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up.
    then check and see if you can delete emails.

  • Can not delete text messages

    Hi, i am trying to delete empty old text messages. I have tried everything. I tried to delete them one by one. I tried to delete them by selecting them and hit delete and even tried delete prior, no luck. I tried to reset the hub, but still there. My message in the text was deleted, but they still show up in the hub. Please help, thank you.

    Hello srandazzo01,
    Thank you for your question.
    You may need to delete the entire chat history for that contact. Are you able to do so?

  • Is there a keystroke combination to delete individual messages in Apple Mail without opening them?

    Can I delete individual messages in the Apple Mail Inbox withhout opening them?

    I just right-click on them and delete. However, opening an email does not subject you to any adverse affects if you have remote html content disabled.

  • Can not delete my emails. The same emails keep coming back instantly

    I can not delete email messages. The same messages keep coming back instantly.

    What seems to have worked for other users in the past.
    Delete, then reinstall the email account
    Then sync the iPad.
    No one knows why, but it often fixes the problem.
