How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?

How can I disable e-mail and text messages when I'm close to or over my data quota ?
Is this possible? I don't see any options?
All I see is this:
Receive confirmations of many account transactions via Email and/or free Text Alerts delivered right to your cell phone. You can receive these confirmations for
   transactions done online, over the phone or from your handset. Account management Text Alerts do not count against any Messaging allowances.
      Your bill is ready for review.
     Payment Confirmations: Your payment has been received    Your credit/adjustment     has been applied.1
     Account Activity Confirmations     Plan changes     Feature changes1

What phone?
You would need to disable data on the phone itself. You wouldn't do it online on your account.
Note also that text messages do not count toward your data allowance.

How can I retrieve a train of text messages back to October 1, 2013, that I have deleted?

For text messages that were transmitted through your cellular connection, you must contact your wireless carrier. For iMessage texts that you have deleted, your decision at that time was final.

How to attach a picture in a text message, NOT EMAIL!

I purchased two iphones a few weeks ago. I have been using mine, the other is my partner's. There is one problem I can not figure out. I have been trying to google the problem and it tells me how to do it via email, but not text message, anyway, this is the problem: I know how to email a picture, but how do you send a file via text message. My last phone was a pocket pc and I was able to do this. The Iphone is suppose to be one of the most advanced phones; therefore, I assume it has this feature. I can not find an attach button anywhere to send a picture in a text message, like MMS or something. If anyone has any information, email me at [email protected]
If anyone knows apple support info, please give it to me. thank you.
John "Kenny" Chunn

Kennyz79,
SMS is just that, text only. MMS, which the iPhone does not support, is a stripped down version of email and supports images.
However, you have email on the iPhone, and can email to most carrier's phones who use MMS.
If you would like to see MMS, you could submit feedback at this link:

Hope this helps,

How can i get records of all text messages

How do you get records of all your texts? Everyone tells me to go to text usage for my number but it does not show up. Any ideas? I need them like now

Hey there Amanda_x,
I've heard your cry for help and I am here to assist. Are you looking just for the numbers that you've texted and received texts from? Or are you looking for the actual text message conversation?
If you are just looking for the numbers that you've texted and received texts from you can retreive that information through My Verizon. Once you are signed in as the account owner you would click on "view my usage" under Manage My Account. From there you can click on Breakdown of Recent Activity and from there you can view the messaging log for your line.
If you are looking for previous text messages that may have been deleted. That cannot be retreived through My Verizon.
Verizon Wireless is only able to provide an average of the last 3-5 days of content, but never more than ten days from the date and time the message is delivered. Only messages that are received may be available. We also must receive a message with your consent and have it notarized and submitted by an attorney or law enforcement official. You can have those documents faxed to (847) 706-7276.
Let me know if you have any additional questions.

Johnathan,
Can Siri record a voice memo?
Do you know if it can read older text messages by just asking?
Thanks

My friend upgraded his phone last night from an older version of the Samsung galaxy to the Samsung s4 galaxy. I'm an iphone user and now he can't receive any of my text messages. HELP!

So last night my boyfriend upgraded his old Samsung galaxy to the Samsung Galaxy s4. He was able to receive a few of my text messages, but then they randomly started saying "not delivered." I turned on and turned off my phone, and tried the turning off and on imessage and facetime but nothing has worked and I still can't text him. I am receiving his messages just fine, I just can't send any to him. I looked onlne at Apple Support for help but I noticed a majority of the problems were coming from people that switched from iphone to an android, but he has always had an android and I've been using the same iphone 4s the whole time. It is really bugging me, so any help or suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thank you!

LG Lucid 3: How can I get rid of the text message indicator? It says I have a text message, but I do not.

I have a new LG Lucid 3 and the text message indicator says I have a new message, but I do not. Messaging is empty when I click on it. How can I get rid of the "1" indicator? I tried turning the phone on and off and that did not work.

Thanks for trying, Anzivina! You've done some strong troubleshooting. Although I do wish it had resolved this matter, I believe we still have options. You've indicated that you've done a factory reset. Can you walk me through the steps you took to get there? Also, after the factory reset, how long before this message indicator appeared again? Was it before or after you restored all your personal data?

How can i get back a deleted text message

how can i get back a very important text message i deleted by mistake.my phone is iphone 3g
thank you

I'm going to post what I found via Google. As I understand, it works for some, not for others, so I'm not vouching for this, so do it at your own risk:
FACT: SMS messages remain on the iPhone after deletion. When “deleted” on the iPhone, they are technically hidden and marked for deletion. Text messages are then deleted only after sync with iTunes.
In order to recover a deleted text message or messages, run through the following 4 easy steps:
STEP 1:
Make sure iTunes doesn’t automatically sync with iPhone when connected.
STEP 2:
Connect your iPhone to iTunes and Back up by selecting Preferences > Backup from iTunes, or right-click on your iPhone and choose back up.
STEP 3:
Restore your iPhone by selecting Restore under Preferences. Note that restoring the iPhone will restore the previous iPhone firmware. Your iPhone will be completely erased after the new firmware is installed. So make sure your back up is good!
STEP 4:
The final step will be to restore your iPhone from the back up you created on step 2. This will allow you to restore any data you have backed up, including the “deleted” text messages.
That’s it!
It’s important to distinguish between iPhone data restore and iPhone firmware restore.
iPhone data restore allows you to restore data you have already backup on iTunes. This is your photos, video, text messages…etc.
iPhone firmware restore is pretty much like a restore to factory switch. This will restore your iPhone to the previous firmware or system and no user data. This option is often recommended if your suspect that your iPhone OS or iOS is unstable.

How can i switch from a regular text message to iMessage for a contact

I had this contact we used iMessage but since 2 days ago it went back to regular text message, how I can put back to iMessage?

The contact and you will use iMessage - if it's available. One of you may not be on WiFi or using a cellular carrier that supports iMessage. Presumably neither of you turned off Settings > Messages > iMessage.

How do you attach pictures to the text messages-SMS on the iPhone?

I have tried to find an attachment area to upload pix on text messages. How do I do this?

People i've said it once i'll say it again. If you need to send a picture to a phone (on att atleast) send it to [email protected] (the number being their phone number) this will send it to the person phone as a mms. other providers also have these addi for their phones. if you dont want to have to type in these everytime just add it to your contact as an email addi and tag it mms. its really simple.
