Group Messaging Turn off, but recipients still got other replys...
I sent a group text, with Group Messaging off (didnt realize it was even there). and people in the group saw all the replys......what gives? Also, we can only text 9 people at one time?
I found this a very annoying oversight and I found the only way to get rid of the problem is to connect it to the ovi suite and delete the voice guidance files from there and when the phone asks you if you want to download them don't click yes! Hope this helps.
Nokia makes some very good features that are often let down by one small thing. It wouldn't cost them much to employ someone to look at the forums and discussions to make simple fixes to the software for problems real users are having.

Is it possible to send a text from the iphone 4s to several contacts and not have their replies go to everyone else on the original text? I have group messaging turned off but this seems to do nothing.
Do this instead:
Email everyone instead of texting and use BCC: which will hide all of the people's emails. -
Snap to points are turned off but they still keep snapping to. WANT THEM OFF!! How do I do this? I've gone into preferences and view, turned off the snap to and it still happens. So when I scale. the points snap to and mess up my line quality.
Please, anyone know how to fix this?Jason,
In cases like this, the first guess is Align to Pixel Grid.
You may select everything and then untick Align to Pixel Grid in the Transform palette, and also untick Align New Objects to Pixel Grid in the flyout options.
You may avoid document types with that as default (RGB for web and the like) or change the default for such documents. -

My Time capsule did a backup yesterday in the morning without any problem. All of a sudden, it disconnected from the wireles system last night and the little indicator lamp turned off. It still makes a noice, as if a disc was turning inside. The Time Capsule was bought last year in June. Any suggestiom what to do? What happens if I press the little buttom (reset?), will I loose af my backup?
Do a reset.. power off the TC..
Hold in reset and power on.. keep holding in reset until it flashes rapidly.. if it turns on at all.
If you bought it in June.. take it back today.. it is broken.. at a guess.
Some Gen4 are failing this way.. get Apple to replace it.. even if it is a few days out of warranty it won't be much. -
Seeing replies to other persons group text even though group messaging is off
I have an iPhone 4s with iOS 6.1.2. When my daughter's coach sends a text message from his iphone to the whole team, I can see the replies of those people who also have iphones. Now I can't text coach without everyone seeing the text. I have group messaging turned off.
That's how imessage works on the iphone.
If you want to reply to just the coach, then create a new imessage just to him. -
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.

I bought a song off of the itunes store on my iphone but it wont play. I even tried to repurchase it but it says that I already purchased it. I have restarted my phone and turned it off but it still won't download or play. HELP!
Depending upon what country that you are in (music can't be re-downloaded in all countries) then try deleting that track from your phone and re-download it via the Purchased tab in the iTunes store app on it, or the Purchased link under Quicklinks on the right-hand side of the iTunes store home page on your computer's iTunes.
If you aren't in a country where you can re-download music or if it re-downloads in the same state then try the 'report a problem' link from your purchase history : log into your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > View Account menu option and you should then see a Purchase History section with a 'see all' link to the right of it ; click on that and you should see a list of your purchases ; find that song and use the 'Report a Problem' link and fill in details about the problem (iTunes support should reply within, I think, about 24 hours).
If the 'report a problem' link doesn't work (it's been taking some people to this site on a browser instead of showing a form in iTunes) then you can try contacting iTunes support via this page : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/- click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page. -
My iPhone 4S keeps taking my credit, im not using Safari or any internet apps, my 3G is turned off but it is still taking my credit, i topped up by ten pounds yesterday and it has already 6 pounds?! Im on Orange (EE)! Someone help please? Thanks
Try restarting the phone
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for phone to restart (no data will be lost). -
Since a recent software update I've not been able to use any internet games - says to remove plug ins. I have turned off all extensions and followed other online advice to remove plug ins, but the games still do not work
I am getting an error with iTonerSupport not in 64bit mode.
It seems in my case this folder: /Users/[yourusername]/Library/iTunes/iTunes Plug-ins is no longer viewable in the finder window.
I had to navigate to this folder via the terminal comand line and delete the iTonerSupport.bundle using rm -r command.
Hope this helps. -
After the new update, why does my Bluetooth keep turning itself on? I keep turning it off, but it still finds a way to turn itself back on
hi Apfelwurm,
why do you say it's not normal.
it always switches itself on after i update. it just did again, this time for 7.1.2.. i t also will switch on after a restore.
i never use bluetooth and make sure it's not on for any other reason.
it's been noticed by others too.

Remove the battery.
Press and hold the power button for 5 seconds.
Release the power button.
Reconnect the battery and MagSafe power adapter.

My Time Machine is turned off but my system startup drive keeps filling up with backup files in a hidden volume. How can I stop this? When Time Machine was turned on, the destination was set to an external drive. I was completely confused about what was happening until I used Houdini to reveal the hidden volume. I have no idea how it got created or why it keeps filling up with no backup application running to my knowledge. Thanks.
Please read this whole message before doing anything.
Download this, or a similar tool if you prefer:

Boot in safe mode. The instructions provided by Apple are as follows:
Be sure your Mac is shut down.
Press the power button.
Immediately after you hear the startup tone, hold the Shift key. The Shift key should be held as soon as possible after the startup tone, but not before the tone.
Release the Shift key when you see the gray Apple icon and the progress indicator (looks like a spinning gear).
During startup, you will see "Safe Boot" on the login screen, which appears even if you normally log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Safe mode is slower than normal, and some things won’t work at all, possibly including wireless networking.
Does your boot volume continue to fill up? Use the above tool to explore the volume and find out where the space is going. -
My iPad 2 doesn't have the app store I have looked in everything, reset the home screen and the restrictions is off but I still can't find it.
If you got the iPad from your school, and the Installing Apps restriction is 'off' but greyed out (as you 've said here https://discussions.apple.com/message/16137325#16137325) so that the App Store app is hidden, then it's likely that your school has set the restriction - you will need to ask them to remove the restriction for you.
