How can I set up an SMS group so that all group members can dial a group number and have a text sent out to all members of the group

How can I set up an SMS group so that all group members can dial a group number and have a text sent out to all members of the group
This would be an SMS group similar to an email listserv but running on the SMS network
I have seen private individuals offering this service
It seems strange to me that no internet site like Apple, Yahoo or Google offers this as a free service much as the email group services are free services.

I think the app GroupMe might do what you want. You might also try contacting your carrier. My carrier offered some fancy group texting service for a while but they never really advertised it so, unless you asked, you never would have known. But, GroupMe is available in the app store. There are lots of other apps that also do group texting but it seems to be the one that gets recommended the most.

  • My contacts and whats app messages are shown on my sister's iphone! How can I secure my iphone and have a high level of security and privacy! Her Contacts are shown in my iphone as well!!

    I have and iphone 6 with iOS 8.1. My contacts and whats app messages are shown on my sister's iphone! She have iPhone 6 and and iOS as well. How can I secure my iphone and have a high level of security and privacy! Her Contacts are shown in my iphone as well! Setting in mac and iphone are a bit presice and sensitive. Is there any way to solve my issue and increase the safety, security and privacy in my iPhone and its data?

    Your problem is that she used your icloud ID to connect to icloud and thus had all your data synced to her device.  Contacts are not saved in a backup to icloud, since they are stored independently in the Contacts section of icloud.  If someone deletes them, they are gone.  If you had them on the PC would they be available in some backup you frequently make of the PC?

  • How can i find serial number and UPC of my laptop pavillion dv6 touch screen

    How can i find serial number and UPC of my laptop pavillion dv6 touch screen if i do not have the sticker at the back or below the battery .. thanks

    Hello,
    The hot key combination you can use at the desktop screen is "FN + ESC". That should bring a system information window on the screen with the computer information including the serial number.

  • How can someone put their number under someone else's name in an iphone without touching the phone

    Ok, so last week on saturday my wife called and asked me why I facetimed her.  Well I never facetimed her and didn't have an accidental call to her at all.  I didn't think anything of it.  Well later that day she called me again very upset saying there someone facetiming me from your number and it was someone elses picture on the other end.  So we called sprint and they reser our  network setting and said call apple support.  Called apple support they said change all passwords and sign up for that duel security option.  Well no one asked us to have her look in her phone and see if there's another number in her phone under my contact info.  So I asked her to look and what do you know there's another number under my contact in my wife's phone.  Now theres no way she accidentally added in a number to my contact.   We know the face and name of the Asian Indian man who called us because sprint told us his name and we've seen his face because he facetimed and my wife saw his face.  We don't known him at all.  The weird part is that the number hes calling from is the same area code that we live in.  So that makes it extra creepy.  We figured he hacked in some how and was sitting somewhere in Asia....  I hope this all makes some since to someone who can tell us how my wife's iPhone 5s contact list was changed by a man who is phone stalking her???

    It can't be tracked by serial number, if can only potentially be tracked via Find My iPad - if that has been disabled, as you say in your post, then you won't be able to try and locate it.
    You've reported it to the police ? If your iTunes account info has been changed then you should contact Support in your country so that you can try and get it back : Apple ID: Contacting Apple for help with Apple ID account security
    You should also change your email account passwords, and any passwords that you'd stored on websites/emails/notes etc.

  • How can I split a pdf and append a unique id- from a document field - to the file name?

    I receive a 250 page pdf each month which needs to be split into separate docs and named with the account number found on each page.  How can I do this?

    This can be (potentially) done with a script, but a lot depends on how the file is set up. Without seeing the file itself it is almost impossible to say if it can be done or not.

  • HT2499 How can I watch a movie and have two subtitle tracks at once?

    How can I watch a DVD using Mountain Lion's DVD player with multiple subtitle tracks, such as english and chinese, simultaineously?

    This will depend on the media player. I do not believe DVD Player in OS X offers this, and don't think even versatile players like VLC or MPlayer support it. Most give you the option for one subtitle track at a time.
    One option is to use a transencoder like Handbrake to rip the DVD and "burn in" one of the subtitle tracks but include the others. This way the burned in one will always display, and you can then enable the second one. It's a bit of a workaround, but will ultimately do what you're looking for.

  • My old email comes up when I want to update my apps.and I know that email is old and I don't use it.however I don't have a password for it so am unable to update.how can I delete it? And have my current email for that

    My old email come up when I want to update my apps.however I don't use that password at all,I've even had a message saying its not in use. I can't update them though which is really annoying! I've tried setting up that email again and change password but doesn't work at all.does anyone know how I can get rid of and use my current email?

    Hi there, this problem has probably been resolved now, but I must say that I came across these posts today as I had the same problem, my old e mail kept popping up, but all sorted now!  Old Apps are not tied to the old Apple ID, honestly!
    Rudegar is so right, all you do is go the SETTINGS/iTunes & App Store, then select `Apple ID` `Sign Out` then you get the chance to enter your new ID, and it worked a treat!
    Good luck with anyone else with this problem, as I spent so long on this, really stupid!
    PS you`ll need to again verify bank details

  • How can I customize window size and have it stay that way? It automatically maximizes the moment I click anywhere on the page.

    I have added a large widescreen monitor and now have a two-screen set up. This taxed my old video card, so we replaced that, too. Then I updated Firefox. Now my window automatically maximizes. "Restore" is the same size as "Maximize", and I can resize it if I carefully drag and drop all four corners. But if I click on the top bar to relocate the resized window, it re-maximizes. I can't find any options or settings that allow me to fix the window size, lock a customized window size, etc. IE8 is not doing this, so I don't think it's the monitor or desktop settings.

    Window sizes and positions are stored in [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder].<br />
    <br />
    Delete localstore.rdf or rename the file to localstore.rdf.sav in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Profile Folder] to test if the file is corrupted.<br />
    See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Corrupt_localstore.rdf<br />
    (caution: do not delete the localstore.rdf file in the Firefox program installation folder)<br />
    <br />
    Note:<br />
    Deleting the file [http://kb.mozillazine.org/localstore.rdf localstore.rdf] will reset the customizations of the toolbars to the defaults.<br />
    You can rename "localstore.rdf" to "localstore.rdf.sav" to test if that solves it.<br />
    Then you can restore the customization by copying "localstore.rdf.sav" to "localstore.rdf" if it didn't work.

  • I tried some software that changed my settings to use Bing, How can I change my settings to have google as my new tab search. Not the upper right bar the center

    Not the upper right the center one when you click on new tab

    I'm guessing you want to use Google as your new tab page?<br>
    You can do that by editing about:config:
    *Go to about:config (via Location Bar)
    *Click the "I'll be careful, I promise!" to proceed.
    *Search for '''browser.newtab.url'''
    *Right click and click Modify > type '''www.google.com'''
    *Then click OK to accept changes
    *Restart Firefox and see if the new tab pulls up as Google.

  • PDF form column has dollar amount how can I line up numbers and have auto calculate?

    PDF file has columns that have dollar amounts.  I can not get it to line up or add up automatically.

    Line up: In Form Edit mode, select the fields, then right-click one of them and select Align, Distribute or Center and then one of the Align options.
    Auto-calculate: Again, in Form Edit mode, right-click a field and select Properties. Go to the Calculate tab and you'll see various options. The first one is the easiest to use for simple calculations. The other ones require more detailed instructions.
