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 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.

  • 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?

    Hey KKnoeck,
    Should you decide to rewatch the episodes you've deleted, you may be able to re-download them as detailed in the article linked below.
    Download past purchases
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201272
    Alternatively, should you have access to a computer, you can also transfer purchases from your device to your computer, then delete them from your iPad.
    Re-download or transfer your iTunes Store purchases from an iPhone, iPad or iPod to a computer

  • 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.

  • I've got a new Apple ID but can not change anything on my phone, my old Apple ID is connected to icloud but is not letting me delete it without a password! But I do not know this password what can I do?

    I've got a new Apple ID but can not change anything on my phone, my old Apple ID is connected to icloud but is not letting me delete it without a password! But I do not know this password what can I do?

    If the old ID is an earlier version of your new ID, you need to temporarily recreate your old ID by going to https://appleid.apple.com, click Manage my Apple ID and sign in with your new iCloud ID.  Click edit next to the primary email account, change it back to your old email address and save the change.  You can now use your new password to turn off Find My iDevice on your device, even though it prompts you for the password for your old account ID. Then save any photo stream photos that you wish to keep to your camera roll.  When finished 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 back to the way it was.  Now you can go to Settings>iCloud and sign in with your current iCloud ID and password.
    Note: this will not work if your new ID is an entirely new ID that was never previously associated with the old email address.

    Only by restoring a backup can you retrieve them.

  • How can I delete text messages from my iphone?

    Hello everyone,
    How can I delete text messages from my iphone?  I do not want to reset my iphone setting. If it is nesscary to reset my iphone setting, will I lose everything?
    Please let me know,
    Thanks,

    Just delete them. Or, do you mean beyond just deleting them? Then, you'd need to wipe the phone - select Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. That's a secure wipe of the iPhone contents, takes several hours (connect to AC power). You'll need to set your phone up from scratch (and erase the old backup(s) from your computer, since your SMS history is part of the backup).

    On an iPhone your iMessages will go to your phone number.
    You can select another email to use on iPod or iPad.
    Go to settings
    Messages
    Send and receive
    Check your phone number and uncheck the common Apple ID you share so your messages will not go to other devices.
