How do I remove 'no sender' messages from my iphone 4?

Hi,
This is my second iPhone and am having the same issue with the 4 as I had with the 3.  E-mails sometimes appear as 'no sender' and 'this message has no content'.  I would like to know how to get them off of the phone since the delete option is not functional with these messages.
Thanks

wow!  thanks for the quick reply.  I've done that before.  Sadly that's a generic answer I always get on these forums.  Restoring is a pain just to find out it's going to have the same problem.  I keep checking back to see if the issues I have are resolved.  So far, all I see is people who have way worse problems with their Iphones so I'm not complaining. 
Another part of the no sender emails is that I get kicked out of Mail and come back to see that tons of emails I had just deleted are back, and I have to one by one check them off to trash them.  Someone wrote that if I turned off the choice of keeping emails in folders together by thread, that would get rid of it.  I haven't tried that yet.  I've got bigger issues with reception right now- only to be told that it's my carrier by some misguided person on these discussions.  Three other people in my home, all with 3gs and one 3g, have reception that is just fine. 
Have a nice day.  Thanks for your suggestion.

    How do I delete excess email messages from my iPhone.  There are 300 messages listed, and every time I delete some, more are added from old messages.  How do I limit the number of messages that can appear on my phone?  How can I delete messages in bulk,

    You can't.
    All photos transferred from your computer are stored in the Photo Library. The photos in the album or albums below are not duplicates - they include a pointer to the original photos stored in the Photo Library. This way you can view the photos in a particular album only by selecting the album, or you can view all photos available in all albums by selecting Photo Library.
    Just as with an iTunes playlist. A song cannot be in an iTunes playlist unless the song is in the main iTunes library. Placing a song in a playlist does not duplicate the song. Remove the main iTunes library or the songs from the main iTunes library that are in a playlist and the songs will no longer be in the playlist either. This way you can listen to the songs in the playlist only by selecting the playlist, or all songs in your entire iTunes library by selecting Music under Library in the iTunes source list.
    The same with iPhoto on a Mac. A photo cannot be in an in iPhoto Event or Album unless the photo is in the main iPhoto library. Placing a photo in an Event or Album does not duplicate the photo. This way you can view the photos in an iPhoto Event or Album only by selecting the Event or Album, or all photos in all Events or Albums.

    This is a problem with your carrier. You can contact them and ask why you cannot send text messages. Have you tried restarting your phone or restoring it yet?

    Hi evan191,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.  This article has some steps you can try if your messages aren't sending as iMessages:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755
    If you still can't send or receive iMessages
    Ensure that iMessage is turned on in Settings > Messages.
    To send and receive iMessages, your device must have a valid cellular or Wi-Fi data connection.

    iMessage registration validates your Apple ID for use with iMessage. If you are unable to activate iMessage, follow this article.
    If an iMessage cannot be sent, it will be resent using SMS or MMS, depending on the content. You can turn this behavior on or off in Settings > Messages > Send As SMS. Carrier messaging rates may apply.
    Verify that the Apple ID or phone number is listed in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.
    Cheers,

    How do you remove the simm card from the iphone 4s when it has no side hole.  The phone was purchased from Verizon so it not a clone or a demo to my knowledge.

    Verizon is a CDMA carrier.  I think your phone may be a 4, and not a 4s.  The CDMA iPhone 4 does not have a sim slot, because it doesn't use a sim.

  • How do I remove the text message from my iPad

    Someone please help, I am a teacher and I use an iPad in my classroom. I just purchased my first iPhone, but somehow, some icons from my phone appear on my iPad. The main one that worries me is my text messaging. I need to remove the text messaging from my iPad.

    Hi, Srta. Sunshine. 
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities. 
    I would recommend signing out of iMessage or turning this feature off on your iPad.  You can sign out of iMessage by selecting Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Select Your Apple ID > Sign Out.  Or you can turn off iMessage by selecting Settings > Messages and turn iMessage off.

  • How can I retrieve deleted text messages from my iphone 5

    Somebody deleted a string of text messages from my iPhone 5 and I want to know if they can be retrieved and if so how? I'm new to the iPhone as this is my first apple product.  I am still not even sure on how to use my iTunes and so forth.  Please help as the string of messages was very important!! Thank you so very much!! Tracy

    SMS text messages are backed up with the iPhone - whether it's locally or to iCloud. If you've already written over the backup that had them (as in, backed up after the delete) then they're gone.
    If you still have a backup available from a time where you had the messages on your iPhone, all you have to do is erase the iPhone and restore from that backup.
    "Retrieve deleted messages from iPhone" is simple as pie.

  • How can I take off my messages from my iPhone without deleting them

    I want to take off my messages from my iPhone 4, but I don't want to delete them.  Is there a way to take them off and save them somewhere.

    You can do it, but you need another library signed in to iTunes match. That second library shouldn't have any local files stored.
    Delete the entry from that second library and it will ask you to confirm that you want to remove the file from the cloud. Confirm that you do.
    Now, as long as you don't delete the file from your main library it will have an iCloud status of "removed" and won't be in the cloud or try add it again.
    However, if you sign out of match on that computer and then sign in again it will then re-add it to the cloud, so this isn't a method to use if you tend to turn match on and off much.
    I have had the Beatles Mono albums in my main library, but not in the cloud, for a while now without any problems.
