How can I see the iPhone text message files on my computer?

I did a back up of my iPhone, how will I be able to see my text messages on the computer?  I would like to keep a hard copy of my text messages from my iPhone.
Thanks.

Best way is to extract from your phone. You need third-party software to do so:

    You can use pretty much any two or multiple button mouse on a Mac, right out of the box.

  • HT5295 How can I see the transcript text? It does not show it.

    I get podcasts from the RN site. All of them are transcripted for ease to the user to find names and review the contents. The old application showe the text on top of the artwork as a transparency and you could scroll as with any other text. Since the update to iOS6 and to the podcast app I CAN NOT SEE THE TEXT!!! They forgot to add an essential part to podcast; the additional information provided by podcasters! Let me know of alternative ways to access the transcript text. Thanks.

    Swipe up from the very bottom of the screen to bring up the control Center. Tap on the Orientation Lock icon. It is the circular arrow surrounding a small padlock. This icon will then appear at the top of your screen near the battery indicator and your screen will not rotate.

  • HT4859 I have my iPhone and iPad backed up to iCloud. Recently, I had my iPhone stolen. I am trying to see the iPhone Notes but when I go to iCloud, I can only see my iPad Notes. How can I see the iPhone Notes?

    I have been backing up my iPhone and iPad through the iCloud.
    Recently my iPhone 4 was stolen but had recently been backed up. I am trying to find the Notes on that iPhone through the icloud.com.
    When I go onto icloud.com, I can only see the iPad Notes - not the iPhone Notes.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks,
    G

    Were both devices sync'ing their notes to iCloud?  Or was one set to sync, and the other just to backup?
    If you look in settings -> iCloud you needed to have the slider by Notes "ON" for both devices if you wanted to sync notes between both of them and iCloud.  In that case, notes on each would be identical, and the same as you can view in the Notes app on www.iCloud.com
    If you had the Notes slider "OFF" and the iCloud Backup option "ON" then your notes should be in your backup and restoreable, but you will not see them online in the Notes app there.

  • How can I back up my text messages to my PC computer so that I can read them or print them?

    I have been trying to backup my text messages so that they are in a readable format on my computer so that I can read them or print them. I have a number of pictures that have been sent and some important conversations I need to save; however, they are taking up a lot of memory on my phone and I would like to delete them, but still have access to them on the computer. I downloaded a free program called Appandora, but it locked up every time it started to save the second text message thread. The one that it did save was in a .txt file and was very difficult to read. I do understand that the texts are backed up when the phone is backed up, but I want them in a readable accessible file. I would appreciate any help anyone could give me. Thanks.

    Hi Maria,
    I am one of the developers for the program Decipher TextMessage, which will help you back up your text messages to your computer. You can read the texts right in the program in a format similar to the phone itself (with the little chat bubbles,) and you can export the messages into a file with that formatting as well. You can download the free trial from our website: http://deciphertools.com/
    If you have any questions, you can followup here, or you can contact me directly through the support page on our website linked above (feel free to mention my name, Kelly, explicitly )
    (Note: As I mentioned, I work for the company being linked-to above, so I stand to benefit from the links I am posting.)

  • How can I see really old text messages without scrolling tediously?

    Hi, I'm attempting to find a way to find dialogue from a while ago. I've been texting this person daily for months, and I want to see our conversations from months ago. I could scroll tediously but it would take forever and I'm not sure my phone would even allow it.
    How can I access dialogue from that long ago and many messages ago?

    Try using PhoneView to get access to the old messages

  • How can i see my childs text messages and picture messages?

    im trying to find away to see all messages on my childs phone anybody know how?

        Hello brendagail,
    Thank you for posting in our community! I know the importance of knowing your options for viewing text message content. Our children have phones and communicate primarily via text.
    As SydneyK and budone advised, due to privacy laws, text message content is not available to view online. You are able to view text message times, dates, and the to/from numbers  by signing into your My Verizon Account using the steps that AZSALUKI provided. 
    Please let us know if you have further questions.

  • How can I see the entire mail message without making it smaller font and not having to scroll to the right?

    when i open a message in hotmail i have to scroll to the right to see the entire sentence. I did not have to do this before what has changed? Me or you?
    Thanks

    You can use an extension to set a default font size and page zoom on web pages.
    *Default FullZoom Level: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/default-fullzoom-level/
    *NoSquint: https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/nosquint/
    If you have increased the minimum font size then try the default setting "none" as a high value can cause such issues.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > Minimum Font Size (none)
    Make sure that you allow websites to choose their fonts.
    *Tools > Options > Content : Fonts & Colors > Advanced > [X] "Allow pages to choose their own fonts, instead of my selections above"

  • How can I access my iPhone text messages on my iPad?

    My friends use their iPads to receive their text messages from their iPhones. I have an iPhone 5 and would like to be able to access them too.

    The only way to access messages on your iPad is if the sender is also using iMessage. So your friends aren't receiving typical SMS text message on their iPads, but rather iMessage messages. The easiest way to tell these apart is that SMS messages will appear green and iMessages will appear blue in your conversation thread.
    To enable messages on your iPad, go to settings and scroll down to "iMessage"  to sign into your account and get it all setup

  • All of the sudden my entire text message history was deleted, but if I search for a text it shows up in the results but will not open.  How can I restore the old text messages?

    I went to text message on my phone and when I looked down my entire text message history was gone.  When I sent a text message it showed up as the only box an there was not an Load Older Messages option.  But when I page over and search a word or name old messages show up in the results and when I press on them it opens the text message page but there is no text message.

    i think that was the problem. i simply downgraded to Firefox 5, not only because of the highlighted text fields, but because i was getting a lot of crash reports whenever i opened multiple tabs. downgrading to Firefox 5 resolved it.

  • How can i see the total size of files which i have been selected?

    I want move my files including movies and photo to the tumpdrive.
    But, my tumpdrive told me which was only 500MB space.
    Therefore, i decided that choose some movies and photo to there.
    When i chose the files i don't know how much of the total size which i've been selected.
    if above 500MB, i could move.

    With them selected, press the Option, Command, and I keys.

  • My Word for Mac 2011 repeatedly fails to display certain text boxes if I apply text changes. How can I view the invisible text?

    I have Mac OS X 10.6.8. I recently had to download Office for Mac 2011, as my company mandated this over my objections. On the first 20-page Word file I received, the file looked fine until I applied track changes and made the first edit. At that point, 2 pages of text disappeared (the entire file was Calibri 11 size). The disappearing text was all in a couple of text boxes separate from the rest of the file. If I did a search, it would point to the white screen, but I could not view it except in Web layout, which is unsuitable for track changes. Unfortunately, all my supervisors say they can see the text that I cannot see.
    I know that Word 2011 is notorious for not reading fonts, but this file is all in the same font/size. How can I see the hidden text before I lose my job?

    Have you tried Word for Mac?
    You will need to test if links survive export or printing to .pdf

    I have added metadata in Prelude. Now in Premiere, I can see the "speaker" but none of the text I added. How can I see the text in Premiere?

    Both the Project and Metadata panels in Premiere Pro have a Metadata Display dialog that allows you to select which metadata properties are displayed. To access this dialog, right-click the panel's tab and select Metadata Display.
