Glitch with photos/text in Messages?

I'm using an iPhone 5, with up to date iOS 8.1. When I go to Photos, select an image and add it to a message, I am taken into the messaging ap and the photo appears as expected. But as soon as I start typing, the first letter is under-case and the second letter I type appears to the left of the first letter. So every time, I have to delete the first couple letters and start over.
This has been happening since I originally installed iOS 8--but did not occur with earlier versions. I Have run all updates and the problem persists. A similar (at least it seems to be) thing happened with my iPad (air) since I installed iOS 8--when I'm on certain websites with commenting, when I click into a commenting field, the first letter is also lower-case and the second letter appears to the left of it (always accompanied by a little flash/reset of the screen)--but this only happens with certain websites (specifically SB Nation network sites). What's going on with this? It seems like a pretty obvious bug in the new software and I would have thought it would be fixed by now--there have been multiple updates.

Happens to me every time with iPhone 6 too.
I really hate iOS 8.  So many bugs.

  • Ability to read & respond with just text to messages in the mobile app.

    I love how in the desktop client I am able to send messages with just text responding to my friends songs. Often times replying with a song doesnt always feel necessary. I would love for this functionality to be carried over to the mobile app.

    I knew I wasn't the only one wondering about this.  Before I entirely understood how the community worked, I was trying to figure out how to post the following (I will here just to add a bit more depth to the idea, apologies for the length): "I am sure someone has at least considered this, if not posted it, so I apologize in advance if I have missed something. On every computer-version of Spotify that I and my companions use there is a feature in which messages can be sent in the same manner as any normal chat room/feature via the inbox. As long as one track has been sent directly to another user to initiate the "conversation," two users can message back and forth, sans the sending of new tracks. We use this feature A LOT. We love it. Problem is, it is only a desktop feature. There is an inbox on our mobile applications, but it only allows us to view tracks that have been sent to us. If we could add the free-chat messaging to the mobile application, I feel the app would gain significant value. There are countless other apps designed just to be messenger systems...imagine then, Spotify could be the hub for music AND messaging! I cannot lie, my true motivation is behind the idea of Spotify being the truly SOCIAL hub for music lovers... Community is one of the best parts of what Spotify has made. It should always be a priority to keep bringing us closer through the foundation of music."

  • Glitch with photos app

    Having problems with the standard Photos app.  A few weeks ago I noticed when I tried scoliing through photos (via the general view that displays them in rows) it would quit whenever I got to a particular section.  So then the only way to view all of the pictures would be to select one then use the scroll bar to go to any section.  Now that I have saved/downloaded a photo format it doesn't like (so it had to 'rebuild library') it quits before it finishes.  I'm using an iPad2 with iOS 4.3.3. Thanks for any help in solving this issue.

  • Can't send photos with a text message

    Every time I try to send a photo from my Camera Roll with a text message it thinks about it for an interminable time then drops leaving an exclamation mark next to the message. It used to be ok but stopped about a week ago. Any ideas anyone?

    You're not alone! I have been searching for resolving this problem but I still have the problem.
    Things you might want to check is that MMS is "on". Get to this by settings- messaging.
    Check that "cellular data" is on.
    try to power the iPhone off for a few minutes, then turn back on.
    The only thing I have not tried is to reset the network. What I have read is that it wil not affect contacts, media, music. Tap settings- general, then scroll to the botton and tap reset, then tap reset network settings.
    I alo wanted to mention that I have no problem sending a photo in an sms/mms message to other ios devices. The photo and text goes through. It's just with other reciepients that have a different device.
    I also have Verizon as the carrier and I tried the *228 to program. My phone is also supplied by an enterprise, my work, and reading this Apple troubleshooting, the APN (access network), could have something to do with it on the settings or configuration of the server.

    Save it, then import it to your computer.
    The manual answers your questions. Maybe you should have a look:

  • Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?  Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).

    Apple is great!
    Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?  Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).
    I compose an iMessage with the destination as my email address and I attach 2 photos I want on my PC.  I send them several times from my iPhone 5C but they never arrive. I look at my ipad later and realize that it's iMessage app is getting ( and swallowing) these emails. I then turn the ipad off.  Still can't get the photos through because iphone is now getting them on it's iMessage.  I turn off the iMessage feature and try to send photos from text msging.  Phone tells me it can't send photos unless iMessage it turned on.  What happened to regular MMS text messaging?  I go and try to send photos as an email attachment and see that there is no option to attach from the stupid email program.  I look up online to learn about the brave new world of apple attachments and send them.
    Why is iMessage taking my incoming emails and then not making them available for my PC to get?
    The email program on my iphone is not configured to remove messages from the server.
    If iMessage is turned off I don't have the issue.
    Why can I not send a text msg with photos when iMessage is turned off (but MMS is still on).

    Did not work. I've selected iMessage to ON and left it. After a few hours I recieved a message "activation unsuccessful. Turn on iMessage to try again". This has been going on for the past 3 days.

    does it involve iPhoto for the Mac in any way? If so how? What version of iPhoto and of the OS? What is the exact error message? What email client do you use with iPhoto?

  • Photo Text Messages

    Hi folks,
    With the new iPhone plan, does anyone know how at&t is classifying the old photo text messages that old phone owners used to do... I know that they used to like to include this as a premium, and didn't see how this fit into this plan.
    Granted we as iPhone owners can eMail them, but what happens when a older phone owner try's to text you a photo message? (sorry i forget the actual term).
    I doubt that this woudl go against the normal 200 text message plan and wondered if anyone has already experienced this since i am a new iPhone owner...
    Thanks!

    Well, they are not exactly covered - they are not supported. So you can't send one, and if someone sends one to you, you will get a regular text message with a URL for you to visit. You have to log into the website to see the picture someone sent you.

  • Iphone 4 not receiving photo text messages - would welcome your thoughts

    Iphone 4 is receiving word texts but not photo texts - set up with MMS not imessage. Would welcome your thoughts.

    Initially it sounds like something with your backup data caused the issue with your new device but if you restored your device again without using the backup and the issue still exists it wouldn't appear to be the issue at all. Since the problem seems to only be with one person are you sure it's not an issue on their end and with their network that is stopping you from receiving the messages? Have you tried *228 option 2 to see if that helps?

  • My Samsung Galaxy s5 does not receive or send mms texts, photos or group messages via wifi.

    We turned off our data and found that I cannot get mms or photo texts via wifi on my Samsung s5 active. The sales reps at the store told me it had all capabilities of an IPhone. Two AT&T technical support phone agents did not know about this limitation. After a 20 minute conversation, the AT&T reps said Samsung just overlooked this feature and will not offer it on this device. Samsung said AT&T will not allow this capability for this device on their network, but they had no written specs regarding this technicality to send me. This is a $689 Phone and I would have never bought it had I know that AT&T limited its capability. Does anyone know of an app or workaround?

    Simple answer is that you can merge text messaging with Google Hangouts on the device.  This will allow you to send text messages from the GS5 without the need of the cellular network.  If would like to look into this and get back to me with any specifics feel free to ask. Here is a youtube video that shows you step by step how to get this done:https://youtu.be/v8YwXcw-YD4 Good luck and again just ask if you run into any issues  

  • Photos/text message

    Anyone know how to send a photo with a text message on the apple iphone?

    Apple could include an MMS client or capability with a firmware update, or allow a 3rd party app that provides for this, but will they?
    I'll bet you dollars to donuts that Apple is very much aware and has taken notice regarding what the iPhone can and can't do and includes or doesn't include compared to other phones in the smart phone or PDA category. In regards to MMS, I seriously doubt all members of the original iPhone development team had never owned or used a cell phone that included MMS capabllity. And Apple is not known for failure to do research. For whatever the reason or reasons, Apple decided not to support MMS, with no way of knowing if they have any plans to do so.

  • Problems with importing text messages from PC Suit...

    Problems with importing text messages from PC Suit 7.1.18.0 to my Nokia 5800
     I am trying to import a csv file that contains text messages (Note that this file was created using PC Suit 7.1.18.0) to a subfolder that I have created to My Folders but PC Suits only imports the text messages to the Draft folder. Note that initially it shows that the messages are import in the correct folder but after a refresh it shows them in the Draft Folder. Is their any setting that I should change in the PC Suit or the phone? My computer runs on Windows XP Service Pack 3 and the Nokia 5800 was upgraded to the latest firmware v20.0.012
     Thanks for your help

    Most phones only allows importing of draft and archived box for SMS.
    To do a restoring, you need to backup the SMS as a .nbu file using PC Suite and restore later.
    If you got an SD card, you can also do a backup on the SD Card (backup.arc) then restore later (reset and restore: backup.arc and mmc).
