Extract text messages from my Iphone 5
Is there a way to extract text messages from my Iphone 5 so I can save them and print them if necessary?
You can capture a screen shot of the text message on your iPhone. Simply view it, and briefly hold the on/off and home buttons together until you hear a shutter clicking sound.
The photo will appear in Camera Roll, and you can then save it as you would a photo.

How do I backup and view text messages from my iphone 4?
How do I backup and view text messages from my iphone 4? I want to know where and how to backup and view text messages and all other personal files, including voicemail, recent calls, etc. from my iphone. Is this function in iTunes and/or does iTunes already backup this stuff when I sync?
I really just want the answer to how and where this works.
ThanksApple provides functionality in the backup done via iTunes to backup the device and text messages. There is no functionality to view the text messages on the computer.
About iOS backups
Other programs are available which can extract text messages from the device or the iTunes created backup and then be viewed on the computer. To my knowledge, no program exists which can force backed up text messages into the device once they've been removed.

If the phone isn't working, you can't. If you have a backup on your computer, you may be able to extract them from the backup using 3rd party software such as iPhone Backup Extractor (see http://www.iphonebackupextractor.com).

How can I retrieve deleted text messages from my iphone 5
Somebody deleted a string of text messages from my iPhone 5 and I want to know if they can be retrieved and if so how? I'm new to the iPhone as this is my first apple product. I am still not even sure on how to use my iTunes and so forth. Please help as the string of messages was very important!! Thank you so very much!! Tracy
SMS text messages are backed up with the iPhone - whether it's locally or to iCloud. If you've already written over the backup that had them (as in, backed up after the delete) then they're gone.
If you still have a backup available from a time where you had the messages on your iPhone, all you have to do is erase the iPhone and restore from that backup.
"Retrieve deleted messages from iPhone" is simple as pie. -

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).

When I send a text message from my iPhone response only comes back to my iPhone . If I send from iPad, response only comes back to iPad. Whichever I used last is where response comes. Responses are not coming to both anymore!
On both devices when you go to settings>messages>send and recieve how are poeple contacting you on each device?. e.g. email or mobile number.

Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.
You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.

Is there any way to print text messages from an iPhone 3gs?
Is there any way to print text messages from an iPhone 3GS?
The only ways to print any text messages from any of the iOS devices is to either do a print screen and then print those photos, or you could look for a program called TouchCopy that will allow you to download the SMS to the computer and you can handle them from there.

I need to retrieve a series of very old (more than 1 year old) text messages from my iPhone 4S. Is this possible?
If the text is still on the phone and wasn't deleted, I don't see why not. Probably easiest to use an app like TouchCopy (Mac and PC) or PhoneView (Mac), rather than looking through things on the phone itself.

Hey:
Hi everyone.
would like to know how I can save a years worth of text messages from my iphone 4s to my computer.
(I have Verizon Wireless as a carrier), I have tried the app store but it is okay for one messgae but not for hundreds.
Can you help me.
Thank you in advance. Happy Thanks Giving.There is no Apple provided way to save text messages to a computer.
The iPhone backup done via iTunes or iCloud, will backup the messages but they are not accessible on the computer.
A google search may reveal options to saving the messages to the computer. -
