How do I silence an incoming text message alert while I'm in the middle of a telephone conversation?

The only way to do that at this time is to use the mute switch on the side of the phone. You can provide feedback to Apple at www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.

  • How can I stop my incoming text messages from going to my daughter's iphone?

    How can I stop my incoming text messages from going to my daughter's iphone?  I have the 4s she has the 4.  When she got the latest update, everything on our phones synced.  She got her own apple id, but she is still getting all of my text messages.

    This is with iMessages only, and because she has the same email address available and selected under You can be reached at at Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.

  • How to cancel bluetooth headset in the middle of a telephone conversation

    When driving in my car my BB connects via bluetooth to the hands free kit in the car.  When the phone rings I can answer and converse hands free no problem.
    Sometimes I want to cancel the hands free function and continue the conversation using the BB as the handset.  How do I do that without disconnecting the call?
    Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hit the menu key and while in the call and select the option that says activate handset and it will transfer from the bluetooth to the handset.....

  • How can I check my daugters text messages?

    How can I check my Daughters text messages?  Her boyfriend is not the kind of boy I want her seeing but she is young and doesn't know what she wants.

    It is very simple.
    depending on how old she is.  If she is a minor, then the phone is technically your property and under contract with you. If she is older then 18 then you could have some legal issues in trying to do this.
    Either way, you can install SMS Backup on her phone or one of the other SMS apps.  SMS Backup will save a copy of every text message to a gmail account and you can simply read them from gmail.
    I am not going to lecture on the ethical or legal part of this as I do track my son (for various reasons) with this (with 100% knowledge on his side)

  • I can't find the new text message alerts for every person - help!

    Hi.
    As I frequently check the Apple website, I visited the iOS 4.2 download site. It said that you get custom text tones and 17 new sounds.
    So I updated to get the new things. But then I checked Settings to see the new alerts and what they sounded like. But I only found the same old Tri-tone, glass, horn, etc. There were no new ones.
    So I checked Phone, but there was no custom text message alert option.
    Am I the only one experiencing this problem? I have an 8 month old iPhone 3GS and it works great.
    I am also suspecting that it could be an iPhone 4-only deal.Which would be ridiculous because I would be really upset to see that Apple only cares about the people who cash in their hard-earned bucks on every new Apple gizmo they set eyes on.
    Please help! Thanks in advance

    I understand that it has been answered and has been said that it is for the iPhone 4 only; however, on their website it does not specify that, this is exactly what it states:
    "Messaging with text tones
    Know who’s texting without looking at your screen. Choose from 17 new alerts and assign custom tones for people in your contact list.
    iPhone only."
    If I am not mistaken, "iPhone only" includes every iPhone generation to which 4.2 can be installed in, not just the iPhone 4. If it is in case for the 4 only, then they should have specified and not made a misleading advertisement about it since every iPhone user has been waiting for new tones of any sort since the first iPhone ever came out. Making it available for only iPhone 4 users is a very fowl move from Apple since it's such a basic thing to the phone itself. They should address the issue correctly and make it available for the 3G and 3GS.
    Apple just asked for angry customers with this one and they definitely know it's not fair.

    You have a Verizon phone. 4.2.10 IS the current version for the Verizon iPhone. You don't have all the same options as on the GSM iPhones. This will be rectified when iOS 5 ships this fall.
    I'm assuming the text messages you're getting are automated...? If not, you could always have a human being call you every few minutes until you answer if you don't respond to the page after a certain amount of time.

  • How can I transfer my saved text messages from one phone to another?

    I have a Blackberry Curve 9320 and recently it began malfunctioning, so I have been sent a replacement of the same model. My problem is that I can transfer things like photos and contacts easily enough but I want to know if there's a way of keeping the text messages that I'd saved on the previous phone and putting them on the new one, any ideas?

  • How can i print out old text messages?

    how can i print out old text messages?

    As Ann said, it does depend on your phone.  One third party app that works on many phones (especially older models, but not all phones) is BitPim ( http://www.bitpim.org/ ) but it can potentially harm/brick your phone if you don't know what you are doing - use it with caution.  I have used it successfully to get texts and photos off an old flip phone that was deactivated and had no sd card.
    Newer smartphones can download apps that will give you the ability to print out texts.

  • Bluetooth accessory: how can I use a BT accessory (earpiece/wristband) to get text message alerts?

    My wife and I both have iPhone 4S phones, AT&T. She is often in loud/busy places, and misses the sound and vibration for an incoming text. We're looking for a Bluetooth accessory that reliably notifies the user of incoming text messages (either a tone in an earpiece, or a vibration on a wristband). I've seen many earpieces with complaints that SMS/text notifications are missed -- for example, the Jawbone Icon has user feedback saying this feature has problems.
    Does anyone have experience and firsthand knowledge they can pass on about which BT devices do this well?
    Thank you.

    Hi Nara,
    You were not able to find enough information for your BT device on ni.com because LV supports mainly the BT devices that are supported by Microsoft. It looks like that D-link DBT-120 is one device that does not have full support.
    From what Fandoid said in the BlueTooth Discussion Forum it looks like if you install the MS Q323183 update and then install some BlueTooth Monitor.
    I think the development kit he is refering to is located at http://www.blu2i.com/downloads/ (found from Google.com)
    You can get the DBT-120 driver from D-Link DB-120 page
    I am not very sure why this is happening but would definitely suggest referring to the above discussion forum post and try out the suggestions provided.
    I hope this helps,
    Ankita

    I want to use my old iphone for my kids as an ipod.  How do I keep from getting text messages on it when it is turned on?  If it is on, and my droid razar is on, text messages will go to the iphone. It is either a 4 or 4s ...I don't have Siri, so I think it's a 4.  Thanks

    Another thing to remember is the phone is actually usable for 911 calls and maybe others. Not a real good idea. Especially for a child.
    It would depend however on the age of the child.
    Good Luck
