How do you send text messages from mac to phones on yosemite?

Just downloaded the new Yosemite and trying to send text messages from my mac to non iPhone users, how do you do this new feature?

I think you need to wait on this for iOS 8.1.  Apple Messaging works now, but via SMS you need your phone linked.

    How do I send text messages from my Ipod touch?  The "send" button does not light up.

    First of all, you need you have at least iOS 5 installed. Second, the person you are texting must have an iDevice with iOS 5 or higher installed. You can´t send messages to an non-iDevice. You´ll also need an Wi-Fi network to send iMessages. Hope it helped!

    Activate iMessage on both your phone and your iPad.  Then send an iMessage to the email address you are using for iMessage on your iPad (which is shown in Settings>Messages>Receive At).

  • How do you move text messages from contact to contact

    Recently a friend of mine changed their phone number so I removed their old number and put in their new one. The text messages that I received from them before this change is now labeled as the the old number. I have 2 questions:
    1. Is it possible to move text messages from that old number to this new one?
    2. Can I put the old number under the contact but label it "old number"? If so, when I text in that screen again will it go to the old number or the new one?
    Thanks

    Just my 2 cents...
    1) As far as I know, those text messages are attached to THAT phone number. There is no way to assign them to another number.
    2) You could certainly add the number as another number for your friend. This would atleast TITLE that thread, so you knew who the conversation was with. However, again, those texts and that THREAD is tied to that "old" phone number. Therefore, if you reply in that thread, the messages are going to be sent to the old number.
    I would just recommend adding the number to the contact, so you have it labled if you forget who it was or something, but then just start a new thread with the friend?!..

  • How do you send a message from a iPhone to a iPad on iMessage

    Hi does anyone know how to send a message to a iPad via iMessage it says you can but doesn't say how

    If you are sending to an iPad, you need to know the email address associated with the Apple ID the iPad is signed in on and the iPad has to be connected to the Internet, either wifi or cellular (if so equipped).

    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 can I send a message from database to a J2EE application?

    How can I send a message from database to a J2EE application?
    If I have a codetable in database that has new or modified values I have to refresh the codetable in my J2EE application.
    Most effective way would be send a message to initiate a table reload from J2EE app, but I don't know how to do this.
    Now I have a background thread that regular reads the table and looks for changes.

    http://www.oracle.com/technology/products/integration/bam/10.1.3/TechNotes/TechNote_BAM_AQ_Configuration.pdf
    This document details how to create triggers on a table that send out JMS messages.
    In this example, the messages are going to Oracle BAM.. your message could go to your J2EE application listening to its own topic/queue.
    an alternative idea.
    you could also just cache your lookup table with something like Oracle Coherence and than try to ensure that all changes to the lookup go through Coherence, so that you won't need to do notification from the db up to the application. the application and the lookup data management tool would be using the data grid for management of the lookup table data, and the data grid (coherence) would persist the lookup data changes back to the db.

  • Does anyone know how to print a text message from a bill?

    Does anyone know how to print text messages from a phone bill or view them?

    There might third party apps or iTunes or iCloud options to backup the text messages from the Apple phone itself. Then you can print the contents of the messages from the backup.
    There are similar applications for Android devices as well.

  • 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).
