How long are sent messages retained in iPhone 4

How long are sent messages retained in iphone 4?

As far as I know, until you delete them. However, keeping huge numbers of old text messages on your phone can take up a lot of space and can have an impact on the performance of the Messages app. I would recommend archiving them off the phone if you want to keep them. I use PhoneView on my Mac for this purpose. TouchCopy is a Windows/Mac app that I believe does the same.

    Different levels for the various voicemails options? I have always had the basic voicemail system and for over two years I was continually resaving a voicemail because I didn't want to delete it until I save it elsewhere. I got very familiar with the message how long it was saved.

    How long are emails kept?

    It depends on your internet mail service provider and any settings you may have made as to retention. I use ATT Yahoo mail and I have emails from years ago. If you use a mail service like Yahoo, the emails are retained on Yahoo's server.

  • When I send text messages to another iphone on my wireless plan I receive the sent message to my iphone.

    When I send text messages to my wife's iphone I receive the sent message to my iphone.  Is there anyway to prevent this from happening?

    Having seperate apple ID's will fix it, but here's how to fix it without adding a new ID.
    Go to settings, messages, send and receive, be sure your number is the only one checked. If her number is checked as well you will receive your texts to her as well.

  • HT201269 how do i transfer messages from one iphone to another

    how do i transfer messages from one iphone to new iphone

    "There is nothing there when I go to it."
    What does "there" mean?  What does "it" mean?
    If you saved a backup in iCloud or iTunes, and then restored that backup to a newer device, you would see the messages ... assuming the newer device uses the same telephone number and cellular carrier as the old one did.

  • I deleted an app by mistake. when I tried to restore my phone from my icloud backup it wasn't there.  I need an older backup. How long are they kept?? Thank you

    I delted an app by mistake.  when i tried to restore my phone from icloud I need an older backup. How long are they kept?? I'd like to get this app and it's contents back.
    thanks

    Apple states that it keeps your last 3 iCloud backups, which would only go back a few days if you back up daily.  Also, apps are not stored in the backup, only your app data is.  The backup simply notes which apps were on your phone when it was backed up, then downloads them from the App store when you restore the backup.  If the app is no longer available in the App store, it will not be restored to the phone when you restore the backup.

  • How long does it take for an iphone 5s to go from preparing to ship to shipped?

    How long does it take for an iphone 5s to go from preparing to ship to shipped. I ordered my iphone on sept 20 6:00 pm and right next to the "preparing to ship" it still says 7-10 days and apple already took the money out of my account?

    Apple.com has notoriously given very accurate assessments of their ship dates.  Keep checking back there for updates.  The place to look is in the Store ... find the "Account" button near the upper right.
