How do I turn off Facebook text messages?

Hello,
I really don't know where to ask this question, so I hope I'm posting it in the right location. I transitioned from the iPhone 3GS to the new iPhone 4S. On my older iPhone, I NEVER received text messages from Facebook (which is a good thing). However, now that I am using the 4S, I am constantly getting bombarded with text messages from Facebook. They are "notifications", ie, when someone posts to my wall or if someone responds to a comment that I made.
I don't know if this is something that is controlled from the Facebook web page (using Safari on my iMac), or if it is controlled from the Facebook app on my iPhone, or if it is controlled from "Settings" or "Notifications" on the iPhone. I have tried all of these places and turned everything off. All notifications for Facebook are in the "OFF" position. I am at my wit's end because this stupid thing is waking me up in the middle of the night with Facebook text messages.
If anyone can help me in finding out how to turn this feature off, I would sure appreciate it. Thanks!

Okay, it has been a few hours and I have not had a single text message from Facebook. WHEW!!
It had to be your suggestion that fixed it. I don't know how I missed turning off that one notification, but I guess that's what did the trick. They have made this notification stuff a bit confusing, becasue there are multiple areas where you can go in and turn stuff on and offf, and you really can't tell what it is you're doing until it's too late.
Thanks again for your help. I will mark this question as "Answered".

  • How do I turn off auto text in emails?

    Got a new BlackBerry Storm 2 9550. Works great except the auto text in emails drives me crazy. There are instructions for turning it off in text messages but I can't find anything about how to do that for emails.

    Hi kja731, my name is Kymlyn and I am a representative with Verizon Wireless. I will be more than happy to assist you with making changes to your phone's settings. You will be able to disable all auto correction features for both text messaging as well as email by following these steps:
    1.On the Home Screen or in a folder, select Options 
    2. Language and Text Input
    3. Show Text Input Options
    4. Uncheck Auto Correction
    You may also have to disable the Auto Word Learning feature as well. Which can be done with the following steps:
    1. On the Home screen or in a folder, click the Options icon.
    2. Click Language.
    3. Click Show Text Input Options.
    4. Clear the Auto Word Learning check box.
    5. Change the Learn Words From Email Messages field to Off.

  • How can I print off a text message conversation?

    I have to print off a text message conversation and I was wondering if there is any other way to print them off instead of using screen shots?

    An alternate utility you may want to look into is DigiDNA's Disk Aid. You install it on a computer, Mac or PC, connect you phone to it and are able to back up everything on the phone and have access to all the stuff in there. Not free but really worth every penny. Free if you work or study in higher ed.

  • How do i turn off automatic texts when i miss a call?

    My iphone is sending out text messages to people when i miss a call from them. How do i turn this feature off? I din't turn it on in the first place either?!!? 

    Are you sure you increased the caller volume? This is only adjustable while in conversation. So, while you are calling you'll see a few icons on your screen and one of them is to adjust your caller volume.

    Hi   I have an iphone 3G and need to know how to print off some of my text messages including the date and time.   Does anyone know how I do this?

    Yeah Dave is right, thats a good idea.
    We could also cry to apple at www.apple.com/feedback
    Many people seem to want this feature including myself....Sometimes. I can live without it but sometimes I find myself search for the specific time I sent a specific message and cannot find it.

  • How can I turn off Calendar text reminder

    I keep receiving Calendar "text" reminders, in addition to Notification Reminders. It's ANNOYING because I already choose which events I want a notification for, within the New Event "form" each-time I create a new event. I can choose to be alerted 5min, 1hr, 2days before the Event ...or I can choose "none"....... However, even if I choose "none" I keep getting incoming text reminders to my text messages, in addition to a screen Notification (which I prefer).  No matter what, I will get a text reminder.    I put on my calendar; Tuesday 28th/4pm/Portland trip/no alerts... just so I know not to schedule anything else that day, not because I need a remindeder. So it obeys me and doest send the Notification pop-up, but while I'm driving to Portland an incoming text comes in at 4pm to remind me OF WHAT I'M ALREADY DOING. How can I make these dual reminders stop? I will gladly choose one or the other....either a Text or a Screen Notification.   Any help you can offer would be great. Thank you!

    Are you perhaps using Google Calendar as your main calendar service? There is an option in Google Calendar to have text alerts sent to your phone for events. Log into Google Calendar on your computer and disable that feature.
    If you're using a different calendar service, see if they have a similar set up.

  • How can I turn off Facebook check-in notifications?

    I keep getting notified when one of my facebook friends checks in to a certain location. Thing is I'm not interested in being informed of this. Is there a way to turn off check-in notifications? And before you answer, yes I have gone to Settings > Facebook > Push Notifications and turned off Nearby Friends and Place Tags.

    Sorry Michael Bratley but English must clearly not be your first language when the guy clearly states he's already turned notifications off in settings then you tell him to do what he's already done lol
    But dont feel bad it's the same story through out this forum
    No one being able to help
    And everyone posting silly pointless solutions that don't fix the issues
    Anyone figured out why I only get nearby notifications (within the app) from only one person yet?
    When I have all settings notifs turned off and nearby within Facebook app turned off too?

  • HT3577 How can I turn off the text editing feature on an iPhone 4 with iOS 6.x - when my Mom taps the phone, it always brings up copy.  It does not do this for me so I am assuming it is the way her disability forces her fingers to hit the screen.

    My Mom has tremors and when she uses her iPhone and taps to select, the way she hits the keyboard causes the copy selection to appear.  It is not an issue with her phone because it does not do this for me.  I would like to shut off the double tap feature.  I have already tried Settings/General/Accessibility/Home speed typing = slowest.

    The editing menu doesn't come up when you double tap. It comes up when you press and hold. It can't be turned off.

  • How do I turn off Facebook birthdays

    How do i remove Facebook's birthday notifications?
    I want to keep Facebook calendar integration, but I don't want the daily birthday notifications.
    Is there a way to turn them off using Facebook, iCloud, or any other way?

    In my opinion this is an "on purpose hack" by Facebook as I feel it is to tempt you to log onto Facebook to wish happy birthday, and thus expose you to adverts.
    I have disabled Facebook birthdays in my calendar so many times, but it keeps getting checked again as if by magic.
    I have disabled access to my calendar from Facebook, even disabled Facebook notifications in Settings, and the option in the Calendar keeps re-selecting itself.
    I have now disabled all push notifications in the Facebook app under settings, lets see what happens.
    If this is a hack, I hope Facebook get a huge fine for illegal privacy and hacking law breaches.  Lets see if the authorities in America or the EU stand up for consumers.
