  • How do i stop text messages on my iphone 4s

    how do i disable text messages on my iphone?

    Contact your carrier and disable messaging for your line/number.

  • HT1977 how do i delete apps permanently from my icloud?

    i want to know how to delete apps i no longer want from  my icloud. i have deleted them from my iphone but they are still in my icloud and i want them gone instead of taking up space i could use for other things.

    If you are talking about wanting to delete your purchase history, that has never been an option.  You used to be able to hide them on your phone but that option did seem to be removed with iOS 6.  You can still hide them on your computer though (see http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919), and perhaps syncing after doing so will also hide them on your phone; not sure.

  • How do i delete photos from iPhoto without deleting them permanently from my macbook pro?

    I'm sorry but i'm new to all this. When i move photos from iphoto to the trash will that also delete that particular photo from my macbook pro storage entirely?

    To remove a photo from iPhoto and your Mac:
    Put it in the iPhoto Trash, then enpty it. Then empty the system trash as well
    If you want to remove a photo from iPhoto but keep it on your Mac:
    First Export the file from iPhoto (File -> Export) to whereever you want it and then go through the steps above.
    Confusion arises as the notion that you would want to remove a pic from iPhoto but keep it doesn't make a whole lot of sense. It's like saying I want to remove one address from Address Book, but still keep it on my Mac. The point of iPhoto and such apps is that they are used to manage your photos. Anything that you need to do with the pics cn be done either with or via iPhoto.

  • Phone died. How do I retrieve text messages that were on phone?

    Phone died.  How do I retrieve text messages that were on phone.

    Unfortunately, unless you had them backed up and stored elsewhere (like on the SD card or your computer), they most likely aren't retrievable.
    Are you sure the phone is completely dead?  Have you tried holding the power and volume down buttons simultaneously for 15-20 seconds to see if that will reboot the phone?

  • TS2755 I have deleted almost all of my text messages but for some reason my memory usage still says that i have 3.5 gb of text messages saved. How do i correct this problem?

    I have deleted almost all of my text messages but for some reason my memory usage still says that i have 3.5 gb of text messages saved. How do i correct this problem?

    Good luck finding the solution. I have another posting https://discussions.apple.com/message/25145839#25145839 on this exact same issue, and that is after looking on my own for the solution on the web and on Apple's forum without any luck for a real solution. Having to RESET a device every time I need to clear out old messages from memory sounds to me like an intended pain from Apple to keep pushing iPhone users to purchase additional iCloud backup plans.

  • When I create a text message from my contact on my iphone 5, the contacts mobile number appears and not there name.  But when they respond to my text, is shows up as a new text message with there name.  How do I fix this?

    When I create a text message from my contact on my iphone 5, the contacts mobile number appears and not there name.  But when they respond to my text, is shows up as a new text message with there name.  How do I fix this?

    Double click the home button and swipe up the messages app to stop it, then open the app again. This pretty much completely stops the process and freshly opens it again, resolving problems at times. I have had this happen before as well on my iPad, I get a banner, check messages, and nothing new is there.
    If that doesn't work, close the app like suggested above, but then restart the phone by holding down the home and lock button for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears.

  • How can I disable Text Messaging on my Iphone?

    How can I disable Text Messaging on my Iphone -- so I do not receive any texts. I do not have nor currently want an AT&T text plan, and I really don't want to be charged .20 for the text messages that will inevitably be sent my way from friends & coworkers who do not know I don't want texts.
    AT&T had a link only for blocking spam texts, but I don't think this will stop standard SMS texts.
    Anyone do this? Does this involve a call to AT&T. There must be a way to disable it, no?
    Thanks in advance!

    You would have to ask AT&T if they can turn off your text capabilities.

    how can i print text messages from my htc amaze to my hp deskjet 3050A

    Hi,
    I believe the phone uses Android OS, v2.3.4 (Gingerbread) therefore you can use one of these applications:

  • How do I stop the message "user name or password for iCloud is incorrect" from popping up 2 times in a row when i try to get mail from other accounts? thank you in advance

    How do I stop the message "Cannot get mail. The user name or password for iCloud is incorrect" from popping up 2-4 times consecutively every time I choose MAIL on my iPhone 4,  7.1.1  I have to select "OK" 2-4 times each time before I can read other email accounts.  I used to have an "@me.com" account which I think was automatically changed to an "@icloud.com account."  I opened a new iCloud.com account yesterday because I could not figure out how to get in the old ones.  I want to delete the original @me & original iCloud account.  When I try to delete the account, they tell me my DOB is wrong. I just want those pop ups to stop.  Thanks in advance for your help.

    Hi Suzanne,
    It sounds like you’re running into a password issue with an older Apple ID that’s setup on your iPhone, which is preventing you from removing an iCloud account from your device. Take a look at the article linked below, it outlines all of the possible ways to change an Apple ID password.
    If you forgot your Apple ID password - Apple Support
    After you enter your Apple ID, there are three ways you can change your password:
    Answer your security questions. Use these steps if you know the answers to your security questions.
    Use email authentication. We'll send you an email that you can use to change your password.
    Use two-step verification. If you set up two-step verification, you can use it to change your password. You just need your recovery key and a trusted device.
    So long,
    -Jason

  • HT1495 How do I stop SMS messages being shared between multiple iphones on my itunes account? One is my wife's, one is mine and we do not want each others messages appearing on the other.

    How do I stop SMS messages appearing on two devices on my iTunes account?
    One phone is mine, one is my wife's and we dont want messages being shared.
    We do have contacts and music etc shared.

    If your are recieving mixed information on your phone on multiple devices this is going to be related to iMessage.
    On your phone navagate to settings > messages > send and receive.
    Check the information in that section make sure it relates to your AppleID and your phone.  If you share a AppleID with the individual create a new AppleID for their device and insert that information.
    If the numbers don't remove turn of iMessage restart your phone and turn it back it.
    If all else fails disable iMessage otherwise turning it off is the quickest fix.
