How do I delete a message I forwarded, which seems "stuck" in my outbox? (Never "sent") It's impeding all other downloads.

I attempted to forward an e-mail on March 8, but it never actually went through. It seems 'stuck' in my Outbox, and I can't see any way to delete it. In the meantime, it's impeding any and all other items I attempt to download. Help!!
Thanks,

I ended up shutting down my system, and when I started it back up, I was able to drag the photo to the trash and delete it (I did get a message warning that my deleting the photo might negatively affect the application that was "using" it, but I deleted it anyway...it worked...and I'm hoping I didn't adversely affect another application!).
Thanks so much for your help!

HT4528 How do you delete 'SAVED MESSAGES' on iPhone 5s

How do you delete 'SAVED MESSAGES' on iPhone 5s? It's taking up about 10GB of 32 GB capacity.

After much searching on the web and reading many (sometimes amusing) posts on this topic here is what I have found.
In Settings>General>Usage my saved mesages were using 3.2Gb and no apparently immediate way of deleting them.
However as the good book says "seek and ye shall find".
SO this is where I went:
Settings>iCloud>Account> then scroll down to ADVANCED and select Mail; again scroll down to the bottom and select Advanced and yet again scroll to the bottom (well at least to DELETED MESSAGES) and tap on the line called Remove.
Here at last you will find a setting that enables you to select the period after which iOS will remove your deleted messages.
The shortest period is one day so you will haev to wait 24 hours to finally have that memory back but it should work and is a nice feature in iOS although it is well burried!!

Hi AmitSri,
Thanks for u r reply,
What is retention period, where can i find this option.
And i don't have authorizations to sxmb_adm --> configure delete procedure
--> Define interfaces for archiving and retention period.
and to RSXMB_DELETE_MESSAGES in se38 , i don't have authorizations to run
Is there any way to delete the messages or make them to System error( Red flag) which are manually cancelled.
Thanks
Sai.

How can I delete text messages from my iphone?

Hello everyone,
How can I delete text messages from my iphone? I do not want to reset my iphone setting. If it is nesscary to reset my iphone setting, will I lose everything?
Please let me know,
Thanks,

Just delete them. Or, do you mean beyond just deleting them? Then, you'd need to wipe the phone - select Settings > General > Reset > Erase All Content and Settings. That's a secure wipe of the iPhone contents, takes several hours (connect to AC power). You'll need to set your phone up from scratch (and erase the old backup(s) from your computer, since your SMS history is part of the backup).

How do I delete a message or an entire conversation in iMessage?

How do I delete a message or an entire conversation in iMessage? I have tried "close conversation" and "clear transcript" in iMessage as well as deleting on the texts on my iPhone.
When I use "clear transcript", the conversation clears. If I open another conversation with that same person, the entire deleted conversation reappears.
When I clear the conversation on the iPhone, nothing happens in iMessage, so I know that is not the correct approach.
So, does anyone know what to do?
Thank you!

Hi,
There are two things going on here. (And the second is not dependant on the first)
The first is that Message Beta now stores all Chats by default and it cannot be changed. (It was optional in iChat)
By Default this is in ~/Documents/iChats (By date)
Separate from this the Messages Sync process seems to be continuously "On" meaning that any conversation is re-synced even if deleted in ~/Documents/iChats or cleared as a Current Chat (Using the small X in the name part of the Message window) or and Clearing the Transcripts and even deleting it on the Phone or iPad.
There is no way to change this behaviour currently as has already been discussed.
I actually have a Migrated User Account that contains old iChat transcripts that go back to 2004.
With some chats it is useful to have the History pop up (How big you have the window dictates how much History shows).
I find it useful as some people come back to me literally years later to ask follow up questions.

I got a message that 5.01 update is available. How do I delete this message? I don't want the update.

I got a message that says 5.01 update is available. It says press here to download. I don't want 5.01. How do I delete this message?
Also, back in settings, where you get into diagnostics and usage data, under "About",
How can I delete this data? It just keeps piling up and soon will overshadow any other storage on my phone.
I don't send this data to apple (there is a toggle) nor do I wish to. I just wish to delete it from time to time.
Any ideas?
P.S. Check your own phone and see the size you have.

To get rid of "pop-up ads and other crap on my computer when I am on the internet", click on Safari in the Menu bar, and select Preferences. Next select Extensions. Delete all of them. Restart Safari.
The first step in addressing the black screen is an SMC reset.
Shut down the computer.
Plug in the MagSafe power adapter to a power source, connecting it to the Mac if its not already connected.
On the built-in keyboard, press the (left side) Shift-Control-Option keys and the power button at the same time.
Release all the keys and the power button at the same time.
Press the power button to turn on the computer.
Note: The LED on the MagSafe power adapter may change states or temporarily turn off when you reset the SMC.

How do I delete email messages so that they stop "bouncing" back and forth between my devices?

How do I delete email messages so that they stop "bouncing" back and forth between my Macbook, ipad, and iphone?

Hi ST,
The first screen shot is the left (main) screen after I moved CS6 to the right screen (second screen shot). As you can see the CS6 panels are in front of MS Word. If I click in the Word document they go behind Word. If I switch over to on the right screen the panels reappear but in front of Word again. So I either have to switch back and forth between the two screens if I want to work in CS6 or manually movee the panels over to the Right Screen. It is rather awkward to have to do that. Make sense?
