Can anyone help with sending non-Ascii messages?

I'm currently writing a small application that sends and receives encoded messages through JavaMail. Here's the problem: each character in the string that I'm sending can be up to 11 bits long and I'm apparently losing accuracy while emailing encoded text.
Apparently, JavaMail treats Strings as a series of bytes, while Java treats Strings as a series of integers. When I try
String message = "Message to code";
message = encodeMessage(message);
message = decodeMessage(message);
and then print out the contents of message, I get the correct contents of message. However, when I try
String message = "Message to code";
message = encodeMessage(message);
Message msg;
msg.setContent(message, "text/plain");
and then receive the message and read the contents, the contents are changed. I tried a for/while loop to see what the string "message" was holding before and after I emailed it. The results:
Before:
Encoded text as integers: 74 196 478 1006 1921
After:
Decoded text as integers: 74 196 63 63 63 13 10
Can anyone give me suggestions on how I can send this data without losing accuracy? I had the idea of sending an int[] array, but I can't see an easy way of doing that... I'm fairly new to JavaMail, so any help is greatly appreciated :-)
Thanks,
Robert Chatham

I've figured out a solution only to come up with an even more bizarre problem. JavaMail is now inserting random bytes into my message.
My code:
(When sending the email):
String encodedMessage;
msg.setContent(encodedMessage);
(When receiving the email):
String encodedMessage = (String)msg.getContent();
I've printed out a list of the bytes in each string immediately before sending the encoded message and immediately after receiving the encoded message. I'm doing absolutely nothing to the message between the times I send and receive it (and I don't think there's a way to, considering that it's off at the mail server.)
Take a look at a sample of the bytes of the encoded message before sending and after receiving (I added parenthesis for emphasis):
0 74 1 96 4 78 10 6 19 21 18 87 17 65 14 13 7
0 74 1 96 4 78 (13) 10 6 19 21 18 87 17 65 14 13 (10) 7
So... what is causing these extra bytes to be inserted into my message? In ascii format, the two bytes represent (I believe) line feed and form feed - but why inserted, and why so randomly?
Thanks,
Robert

I am a bit ignorant when it comes to my iphone 4. Can somone help me delete saved text messages? I have tried to delete them one by one in my messages, but it still says that I have 2.3 saved messages. I just want to free up space on my phone.

Dearest Ones in the Apple Tech World,
I need to free up space in my storage, and I can do that if I can figure out how to delete my saved text messages. Anyone out there know how in the world I can accomplish this?
I have tried to delete them one by one, but it still says that I have 2.3 GB of saved messages!
I am not the saviest when it comes to operating this phone. Any help would be appreciated!
THANKS SO MUCH!

There's no way to delete all message threads at one go. You can however do one contact thread at a time.
In Messages app where you see a list of messages from different contacts, tap Edit (top left), tap the red (on the left), then tap the red Delete button on the right.

Can someone help me send mail using SMTP server?

I am having the most frustrating problem with SMTP outgoing email account. I use GoDaddy's Webmail (smtp.secureserver.net) and I receive all my emails through Apple Mail but I cannot send any. I haven't been able to for about two weeks now, aside from 3 or 4 fleeting windows of time when I could. Almost all of the time I try to send my emails, an error message says my outgoing account is offline. I've been on the phone with GoDaddy's tech support three times this week and did everything we could think of, which include these steps:
-Force Quit Apple Mail --> Restart Computer
-Change Default Ports to a specific one and uncheck "Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL)"
-Check "Use only this server"
-Delete account completely from Apple Mail and re-load (which I had to go into Time Machine to recover messages, and lots a bunch in the process ugh!)
Nothing works! I depend on this email for my business, and I rely heavily on Apple Mail for this account. All of my other email accounts that I pull through Mail work fine, but of course they are not SMTP outgoing. Please help...I feel like I've tried everything and nothing works permanently.

At this point there are 2 possible causes to your problem:
Apple Mail
Connectivity between you and the SMTP server
I can't help with (1) as I use Thunderbird as my mail client (the biggest advantage being I can take my mail files and move between different versions of Mac OS X). If you suspect that your problem is due to Apple Mail, then using another email client to send a test message will prove the point. If it works, then the problem lies with Apple Mail and somebody else will have to chip in. If it still fails, then there may be connectivity issue between you and the mail server.
If you google "telnet smtp test" (without the quotes), you will find many articles showing you how to test an SMTP connection using telnet. Don't be put off by the fact that many of the articles assume you are running Windows. The only Mac bit you need to know is that telnet is a command line utility accessed via Terminal. The rest is generic.
Telnet will allow you to interact with the mail server a line at a time and show you exactly what and where the problem is. If you get an unexpected response from the server, go back to GoDaddy and show them the output. If you don't get any response at all (i.e. "telnet smtpout.secureserver.net 25" just hangs), then take it up with your ISP as you are simply not getting through to the server.
Good luck.

Can someone help me with drawing text and a custom image in cocoa?

I am trying to learn how to draw, and when I look at the tutorial, instead of getting straight to the point on how to draw text at a coordinate, it talks about the concepts of how to draw. I get that, but exactly what methods and what objects should I use?
For instance, the java code:
+public void drawComponent(Graphics g){+
+Graphics2D g2 = (Graphics2D) g;+
+g2.drawString("Hello, World!", 10, 20);+
draws the good old "Hello, World!" on a line starting 20 pixels down and 10 pixels across. How would I do the same in objective-c in a customized view? Based on the tutorial, I need specify the code in the
+- (void)drawRect: (NSRect) rect+
method.
Also, how would I draw a picture(.gif and .png format)?

Here's a very basic example:
- (void)drawRect:(NSRect)rect {
// draw text
NSString *myString = @"Hello World";
NSFont *font = [NSFont boldSystemFontOfSize:24];
NSColor *color = [NSColor blueColor];
NSDictionary *attrs = [NSDictionary dictionaryWithObjectsAndKeys:
font, NSFontAttributeName,
color, NSForegroundColorAttributeName,
nil];
[myString drawAtPoint:NSMakePoint(20, 0) withAttributes:attrs];
// draw image
NSImage *myImage = [NSImage imageNamed:@"picture1.png"];
[myImage drawAtPoint:NSMakePoint(20, 40)
fromRect:NSZeroRect operation:NSCompositeCopy fraction:1.0];
Since the above uses the imageNamed convenience method of NSImage, the arg must be the name of an image file you've previously added to the main bundle (Project->Add to Project). The code for a gif would be exactly the same.
For more details see [Drawing Images into a View|https://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Coc oaDrawingGuide/Images/Images.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40003290-CH208-BCIIBDAD] and [Simple Text Drawing|https://developer.apple.com/mac/library/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/ CocoaDrawingGuide/Text/Text.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40003290-CH209-SW1] in the +Cocoa Drawing Guide+. Btw, the above is for OS X, since you asked about Cocoa. iPhone code is now called Cocoa Touch, so I hope I guessed the platform right. In case you really wanted iPhone, the code would be quite similar, but you'll need to substitute CGPointMake for NSMakePoint, UIColor for NSColor, UIImage for NSImage, and use a method like [drawAtPoint:forWidth:withFont:minFontSize:actualFontSize:lineBreakMode:baselin eAdjustment:|http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/UIKit/Refer ence/NSStringUIKit_Additions/Reference/Reference.html#//appleref/doc/uid/TP40006893-CH3-SW14] for your text. You'll also only need one arg for the [drawAtPoint|http://developer.apple.com/iphone/library/documentation/UIKit/Refe rence/UIImageClass/Reference/Reference.html#//appleref/doc/uid/TP40006890-CH3-SW24] method of UIImage.
Hope that helps get you started!

You have something like the following line (obviously since I don't have your code I made something up.)
xxx.getStuff(other.myMethod(myString));
You need to modify it to look like this
if (myString == null) System.out.println("MyString is null");
if (other == null) System.out.println("other is null");
if (xxx == null) System.out.println("xxx is null");
xxx.getStuff(other.myMethod(myString));
Keep adding if/thens and println() until you figure what object is null.

How to send a text message instead of imessage on Mac and Ipad iOs 8.1?

My iphone 6 Plus, ipad mini 2 and MBA on OSX Yosemite are all linked together under the same wireless network. However when i send a message on my Mac to my friend who is using an iphone, default sending is via imessage. How can i choose to send a text message instead of imessage? WHy? because sometimes my friend is not online. So i need to send a text message that my messages are received real time.

Hey there ipremacha,
It sounds like you need to enable Text Message Forwarding on your iPhone for your iPad to send MMS/SMS messages through your phone.
Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity
Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.
Your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch will display a code. Enter this code on your iPhone to verify the SMS feature.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Regards,
Sterling

Everytime I try to send a text message it fails

My friend just bought an iphone 4 and she can not send regular text messages out.. only imessages to people that have iphones. She gets the alert notification saying it failed to send. Also she set up her email like it told her to and now her contact name is her email address. She just wants her name there... What do we do?

When creating an email account, there is a name field to enter the name you want shown with the email address. Her name needs to be entered there.

Have you signed out of your iTunes account on the device/computer that you are using and signed back in with the updated password ? That should 'refresh' the account on it, and you should be able to use the account's new password to download updates to its apps

Pleeeease can someone help me cos its stressing me out sooo much! Thanks xxx
Imac and Ibook G4 Mac OS X (10.2.x)

Hi Jenny,
Welcome to the Discussions.
Did you format it Mac OS Extended or leave it formatted FAT32? Jaguar (10.2.x) cannot mount FAT32 drives larger then 128GB. You need to upgrade the OS on the iMac to at least Panther (10.3.x) or re-format it Mac OS Extended with Disk Utility.

"iMessage allows users to send texts, photos, videos, contact information, and group messages over Wi-Fi or 3G to other iOS 5 users, thus providing an alternative to standard SMS messaging for all users with devices running iOS 5."
This is what it is and what it does. You both have to have iOS 5 installed on your supported device. If that's not what your setup is, then that's your answer.
