Creating Groups for Mass Text Messages and emails

I have been searching but haven't been able to find out how to create groups to send bulk text messages or emails from my iphone. Can anybody help?

Hi,
I am new to this board and I've had the iphone only for a few days, but today, on thanksgiving, I wanted to wish about 50 of my closest friends and family a very happy thanksgiving I noticed the same thing and came here to find a resolution.
Next upgrade this is something Apple really needs to take care of.
Preferably _before Christmas_, otherwise I'm going to have to write those 50 friends, plus texts for random people I just want to keep in touch with.
Don't even want to think about it.
Of course I still have the option to use my good old Sony Ericsson W800 I gave my mother, but what does this tell us about Apple????
Thank you,
Teisha

  • Text messages and email accounts disappeared after...

    Hi,
    I just made a backup via OVI Suite and now all my text messages and email accounts are gone. When trying to restore it skips the messages and marks them with an exclamation point inside a red triangle.
    Where did my messages and email accounts go? How will I be able to get them back?
    Please help!
    Thanks,
    Marc

    Text messages should be saved for as long as you save them. Email will be saved for the length of time you chose when you setup your mail account.

  • Monitoring text messages and Emails

    Is there an app or progam that I can download so that I am able to monitor what my child is saying/sending in text messages and on her emails?

    No, and any app for text messages would have to run on a cell phone.

        bonnies11, congratulations on upgrading to a new iPhone 5S! We apologize that you will have to manually delete every e-mail individually from your device. However, you also have the option of accessing your e-mail account on a PC or laptop to delete the e-mails in bulk. To ensure that all of your information is backed up at the iCloud, you will need to reactivate your iPhone 4 and resync that device.

  • Is there a way to set up unique alerts for unique text messages?

    I have a need to be able to identify text messages from a specific sender.  I currently can only find one message alert sound for all messages and want to be able to give certain senders a unique sound.  Is this possible on the IPhone?

    .. go into "Contacts" on your iPhone.. select a contact.. then scroll down and select the ringtone for either text messages and/or phone calls.

  • I have an iMac desk top, iPad, and two iPhones. Someone (a family relative) has somehow copied text messages, and possibly emails from our iPhones, and sent them to other people. He has had access to my wife's iPhone numerous times. Can I check our iPhone

    I have an iMac desk top, iPad, and two iPhones. Someone (a family relative) has somehow copied text messages, and possibly emails from our iPhones, and sent them to other people. He has had access to my wife's iPhone numerous times. Can I check our iPhones to detect any surveillance apps(bugs) on them?

    Whose Apple ID are you using? It sounds like whoever co-opted the account may have changed the security questions as well.
    Follow the instructions here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5665
    What should I do if I don't remember the answers to my Apple ID security questions?
    Try answering them at least once to see if you can get them right, even if you are not sure you remember the answers to your security questions.
    If you are confident you can't remember them, try one of the following:
    If you have three security questions and a rescue email address
    sign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to send an email to your rescue email address to reset your security questions and answers. 
    If you have one security question and you know your Apple ID passwordsign in to My Apple ID and select the Password and Security tab to reset your security question.
    If you have one security question, but don't remember your Apple ID password
    contact Apple Support for assistance. Learn more about creating a temporary support PIN to help Apple confirm your identity when you contact Apple Support.
    Note: If you have forgotten your password and answer your security questions incorrectly too many times in a row, you will be unable to try to answer your security questions for a period of time. During that time you will not be able to reset your password and will not have access to your account.

    You cannot update iPhone 4 to IOS 8.1.2, the highest you can update is IOS 7.1.2.
    Unless you've iPhone 4S (looks similar to iPhone 4)

    Trying to view my usage for text messaging and it's not accurate.  Is there a problem w/ the page?

    Sometimes there can be a lag in reporting.  If you have an iPhone, iMessages don't show up on the log.  What part of the usage isn't accurate?

  • Sending text messages to email addresses

    With my previous (dumb) Samsung phone I used to send text messages to email addresses all the time and everything was fine. Now, it turns out that when I send a text message to an email address with my iPhone 4 the phone sends it as MMS instead of text, and the problem with that is that my provider (Bell Canada) charges me extra for these MMS messages. I do not normally use picture or video messaging, but when I'm trying to create a message to an email address with MMS disabled, the phone tells me this cannot be done unless I enable MMS.
    I can receive texts from email addresses just fine and they come in as text messages with no extra charges for me. How can I send a plain text message from iPhone to an email address without going through MMS?

    Dododo, I have your same exact problem, right down to my last cell phone (samsung) that did it perfectly using only my included unlimited texts.
    Has anyone found a solution to this problem? I think it sends them as MMS because bell sends the texts to email from the iphone as words on a notepad-like background that arrives in email as a picture attachment.
    My problem is that I'd like to turn my 3G off when I don't need it, to save my mb's. Therefore sending emails right from the email app is not a viable alternative, when text --> email used to be free on my old, basic cell phone.
    Any suggestions/solutions are appreciated

  • How do I copy an entire string of text messages to email?

    I want to save a long string of text messages and export to email.
    On first try I can press "edit" select a few messages (worked for up to 14) and press "forward" to get them into email
    How do I copy the whole lengthy string of many texts?
    The copy/paste function would be tedious and take forever.
    On my iPhone, it allows one transfer, then no more will be allowed unless I reboot, then only one allowed again.
    Is there an easy way to load ALL texts (pref
    with time/date stamps)?
    Thank You

    Press and hold on a message, tap More > Select the messages you want > Tap the arrow > copy everything out of the new message that appears
