Exporting SMS text messages from the Treo 680

What options are available to export SMS text messages and call logs from the Treo 680? I need to create hard copys for evedence in a court case. I back-up files to the Palm Desktop on a Mac OS-X.
I have searched through the Palm guide, but no discussion on extracting the SMS data. I understand that the sms messages are in the file "Messages Database.pdb" and the call log is in "PhoneCallDB.pdb", question is how to extract the records.

How can I get rec'd text messages from the same subscriber not be appended

Hi,
Is there a way to configure the Apple iphone so that text messages from the same subscriber are displayed separately rather than appended to each other? In this way accidentally deleting one message wouldn't delete the entire history of messages from this subscriber.
When I launch the SMS service by pressing the green SMS button I am met by a screen that says Text Messages. On the left of this there is a button that says Edit and on the right there is one that is for writing a new message. Down the page are my messages all grouped by the originator of each messages. If I choose one I see that all messages from this source are present appended one after the other. There is also the option now to Clear on the top right hand corner. It is this Clear option I am worried about. If I choose Clear I am asked for a confirmation and then lo and behold as expected all my messages from this subscriber are deleted.
This is a work phone for support purposes and most of the texts will be from the telephone operator (i.e. the one same number) saying we have an email waiting to be read with a subject title giving a little description. I want to be in a position so that I don't accidentally delete the entire history of messages, say some evening when I'm tired or Monday morning if I 'm a bit asleep. Ideally I would prefer that each text message would stand alone in the Text Messages window irrespective of the originator and not be appended in a group fashion. Is there a way to do this?
Kind regards,
M

There is no way to do that on the iPhone. Messages will always be grouped into a 'conversation' based on the sender/recipient. Only Apple can change that behavior.
You can submit feedback to Apple: http://www.apple.com/feedback/iphone.html.

Ever since I enabled iMessage on my Mac Airbook, I can no longer receive text messages from the iMessage people on my iPhone, only on my iMessage now!! How do I get the messages to reach both iMessage and iPhone??

We are suffering very similar issues when communicating from my iphone to a friend who has both iphone and iPad enabled.
As long as I reply to an existing text chain, then it is visible on the target iphone. If I SMS the phone number, it gets routed to the IPAD!! And NO, I should not have to disable imessage when I want to send an SMS!!

Is there any way to delete text messages from the external screen of an LG EnV3?

The internal screen of my phone doesn't work, so I've been texting from the external key pad. But my inbox has gotten full and I can't receive texts anymore. Is there any way to delete texts using only the external screen of the EnV3?

It was awhile ago and I'm not totally sure, but I think this was discussed and the conclusion was that you can't delete texts using the external screen of the Env3. **Edit (Found one thread: http://community.vzw.com/t5/Messaging-Text-Picture-IM-etc/No-option-to-delete-text-messages-from-front-of-LG-enV3/m-p/43042#M1684 ) It came up in one other thread that I could find and the solution was to use the internal, and similar steps were given - the only difference was using the OK for Menu and #2 for Messages, rather than the left soft key for Messages. vWhatever works...
What you CAN do, is open the flip, left soft key (which is the Messages menu), and there are several options - these are the text messaging ones -
1. New Message
2. Inbox (#)
3. Sent (#)
4 Drafts (#)
Press the right soft key (options) and your choices are:
1.Erase Inbox
2.Erase Sent
3.Erase Drafts
4.Erase All
If you choose Erase All, then OK - it will erase all except unread messages, and locked messages. If you choose any of the numbers, then hit OK, it will erase ALL in that category, read or not, so I would choose Option 4 to erase all but the unread.
HTH, and post back if you have further questions...

HT4859 can i extract text messages from the icloud on my computer?

I have damaged my iphone & am needing to view text messages. The phone has been backed up to icloud. Is there anyway to log in & retrieve text messages on my pc?

You can't hide it AFAIK on AppleTV - do it via iTunes.
In iTunes elect the store home page, and choose Purchases in teh QuickLinks on the right.
Choose TV Shows and hover over the one to hide and there should be a small x to hide it.
If you need it back go into your actual account settings in iTunes and choose to unhide there.

Is there a way to read text messages from the past in a thread that has been ongoing for months?

Is there a way to view/recover messages from months ago in a thread that has been ongoing? The messages are not deleted. If i just keep "loading new messages" a) it will take all day, I've tried, and b) it freezes on me.

Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

Both will allow you to archive your text messages to your computer and read them easily.

How do I export/Merge Text messages from different iPhone backups?

I have several backups on my computer from my iPhone, from different times. And I would like to merge all text messages.
Currently I have my recent text messages then a 1 year gap, but have those on another backup. Is there a 3rd party software or someone that can do this?
I have tried iExploror but only will save them.
Thanks

I can't believe in 2015, there is no way to merge texts.
Like when I had to send in my phone for repair and used a backup phone for a month, and that I can either ONLY have the old texts without the new month, or the new ones, with no history, and they can't merge.
There has to be software, or jailbreaking options or something Tim Cook can figure out in this day and age.

Is there any way to retrieve deleted texts messages from the IPhone 5C?

I accidentally deleted the wrong texts, and was wondering if there was a way Verizon, or the IPhone could recover the deleted messages...

Unfortunately, no, not unless you had them backed up somewhere (like with bitpim software). Once the texts are deleted from the phone, they're gone.

How do I restore my deleted text messages from the iCloud?

Is there any way to restore text messages that have accidentally been deleted?

You would have to restore from a backup made while your messages were still on your phone (described here: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766). This will revert all data and settings to those contained in the backup, not just messages. Before doing this be sure to import all photos and videos to your computer (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4083) and back up your contacts (such as by syncing them with iCloud: Settings>iCloud>Contacts>On) as sometimes these get lost when restoring from a backup.

If someone blocks me on iphone can i still receive text messages from the person that blocked me?

Im in a group chat with 5 people (including myself) and everybodys been just saying "oh you got the job?" and i just didnt receive any messages from her saying how was it....im just a little confused...DID she block me or??

The following from http://www.wired.com/gadgetlab/2013/09/iphone-call-block-faq/ indicates there currently isn't a way:
I get my iMessages on my Mac. Are those blocked too?
Nope. There’s currently no way to block someone from iMessaging your Mac — the iPhone block feature seems to be tied to the physical device, not your SIM, and not your Apple ID or iCloud account. This also means that even if you’ve associated email information with a blocked contact, the iPhone won’t block their emails.

Import text messages from the previous carrier?

I'd like to see old text messages, stored on the sim card of my old phone with the previous carrier (tmobile), to be imported on the iPhone. Any ideas? Thanks.

Not possible.
You can see your old SIM messages on your old SIM on an old cellphone, but not on an iPhone. The iPhone does not access your SIM card in any way accept for it's network connection.
