Deleted Text Message Conversation

Hi! I accidentally deleted a very important text message conversation...is there any way to retrieve it? Unfortunatly, it wasn't backed up, so it would have to be on AT&T's side.

I don't believe so.
As you probably know, SMS messages are included with your iPhone's backup, which is updated as needed during the sync process - if any of the data included with the iPhone's backup has changed since the last sync. If this SMS conversation was created and deleted between syncs, I'm afraid you are out of luck.

    Start Firefox in [[Safe Mode]] to check if one of the add-ons is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Tools > Add-ons > Themes).
    * Don't make any changes on the Safe mode start window.
    See:
    * [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]]
    * [[Troubleshooting plugins]]
    If it does work in Safe-mode then disable all extensions and then try to find which is causing it by enabling one at a time until the problem reappears.
    * Use "Disable all add-ons" on the [[Safe mode]] start window to disable all extensions.
    * Close and restart Firefox after each change via "File > Exit" (Mac: "Firefox > Quit"; Linux: "File > Quit")

  • How can I read non-deleted text messages from months ago without having to continuously press "Load Earlier Messages"?

    I never deleted text messages from a specific person in case I ever wanted to go back and look at them. Now months have gone by and I don't feel like continuously pressing "Load Earlier Messages" for hours trying to get back and look at them. Is there anyway I can upload the whole conversation on to my computer and read the entire conversation from the beginning?

    Yes.
    I use iBackupBot.

  • Cant select and delete text messages

    Since the latest ios7 update i can no longer select and delete text messages.  I have to delete the entire conversation.  Anyone else having this problem? Is there a fix?

    Tap and hold on a text within a conversation. Tap "More" in the pop up menu. Select the messages you want to delete by tapping in the little circles at the left of the messages. Tap the trash can in the lower left of the screen.
    Best of luck.

  • Retrieving Deleted Text Messages

    I have an iPhone 3G. I'm trying to find out how to retrieve accidentally deleted text messages on my phone. Is this possible?

    I dont mean to jump into this conversation but I have a question for you. I have read your advice and tried to follow it regarding such situations. LAst night as I received a text my iphone 3GS froze and all of a sudden when to the black screen with the apple on it (as if i had rstartedit my self by holding the home button and power buttong ) But i hadnt. WHEn the phone turned back on ALL of my texts were gone. EVery single one of them. I have tried to do what you said. I went to itunes, to edit, preferences, unclicked the box that made my phone sync every time. The next thing you said to do was to right click in the left device pane and hit restore? There isnt a left pane...or when I right click nothing happens. Please excuse my ignorance but I dont know what to do next? THere is an option of a restore from a month or so ....but I cant right click on it. If i plug my device in and am on the main screen of my device when i hit restore my option is to factory settings.....

  • HT4859 how do I restore deleted text messages from an iCloud backup?

    I mistakenly deleted an important text conversation - swiping and deleting the wrong conversation.   My iphone is backed up to icloud, but not on my conputer.  Are there steps I can take to restore the deleted text messages from the icloud backup?  If so what are they and where will I find the restored messages after the process?   Any help would be very much appreciated.

    Hi again - thank you very much for the feedback.  It is actually a conversation over 3 days that is quite important so if I can recover it, I would like to.  
    As for the actual process, the most recent back up was prior to my deletion.   Three last questions (I hope...):
    1) How will I know what I need to redownload from itunes?
    2) Is this link the best in terms of the literal steps to take to do the restore:

    3) Is there anything I should do to the phone before I begin the restore process?
    Again, thank you for your time - very much appreciate the expert advice.

  • How can I print off a text message conversation?

    I have to print off a text message conversation and I was wondering if there is any other way to print them off instead of using screen shots?

    An alternate utility you may want to look into is DigiDNA's Disk Aid. You install it on a computer, Mac or PC, connect you phone to it and are able to back up everything on the phone and have access to all the stuff in there. Not free but really worth every penny.

  • 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).

  • I used to have a IPhone3 about three years ago, unfortunately i do not have it anymore. My question is is there a way to obtain deleted text messages from my phone number from a short period of time before i got rid of my phone?

    About three years ago in 1012 I had an iphone3 sent and deleted text messages of course and as of now those text messages are needed for an upcoming court case i will be involved with. So is there any way to retrieve those text messages from three years ago. I am just in need of the text messages from February 2012 on. So its about 6 to 10 months of texts. what do I have to do to get them back if possible???

    As the others noted, if you don't have any older iTunes backups then the deleted messages would not be recoverable. The free trial of Decipher TextMessage will show you if there are any text messages in your older backups that can be recovered.

  • Is there a way to get a deleted text message back ?

    Is there a way to get a deleted text message back ?

    Yes, you could Restore your iPhone from your backup on iCloud and get the text. Any texting, or other items, you did between the backup and the Restore would be lost.
