How to respond to SMS sent from Email?

Hello
When I was on verizon I could send an SMS to an email address, and also if I received an SMS (to [email protected]) I could respond to it. Does anyone know if you can respond to an email sent to your cingularme.com address, it only comes up as from 1 (010) 100-004 which you cannot reply to. If no, then why did they do it this way? Is it iPhone or AT&T?

Agreed that this is not only an annoyance but also hinders productivity. I receive pages from work, which are aliased to <my_number>@cingularme.com. I would like to use my iPhone to respond to the pages, which means that I can integrate 'To' and 'CC' into replies. My BlackBerry with Verizon service made use of SMS in this way. Since SMS is a standardized protocol, this does appear to be a limitation of AT&T service; rather, it appears that Apple has chosen to simplify the capabilities of iPhone's SMS, dressing it with the familiar iChat interface (which has also been vastly simplified from OS X).

  • How do you save a picture from email to the iPhoto?

    How do you save a picture from email to the iPhoto?

    Click and hold on the Save button, and a menu appears, listing each attached file’s name along with a Save As button. Select any individual file, and you’ll save just that attachment to disk. But the really nice feature is the final menu item—Add to iPhoto. That’s right; with one button click-and-hold, you can add all of a message’s attached images to iPhoto.

  • How can I accept invitations sent from PC's

    Hi
    I was wondering how I accept invitation requests sent from PC Outlook? At the moment they just show as a line of text in my Mac mail. No attachments to accept.
    I am able to accept gmail invitations.
    Thanks

    You can't (only) de-authorise computers you no longer have access to.
    Your only option is to de-authorise all your computers and then re-authorise those you wish to be authorised. You can do this by logging into your account settings in iTunes on your computer (Store > View My ID) and selecting the option to de-authorise all.
    Please note however, you are only permitted to do this once in each 12 month period, therefore you would be better de-authorising your computers before you lose access to them. you can do this from the 'Store' menu in iTunes.

    HOW CAN I BLOCK SMS MESAGES FROM AN SPECIFIC PHONE NUMBER ON MY I PHONE5, THANKS

    You can't. Contact your carrier and ask them if they provide such a service. Most carriers do not, unless the text messages are threatening or harassing, but you can ask.

  • Why the receiving party received iMessage from me but displayed as sent from email address

    When sending SMS through iMessage, why is it that the receiving party received the SMS as being sent from my email address instead of my mobile number

    I have iPhone 4 iOS 5.1; I've been trying figure out how to make it so iMessage sends from my phone number and this is what finally worked for me:
    First, I went to Settings>>Messages>>Receive At
    Then, from there I logged out of the apple id by tapping on my email address and selecting "Sign Out." Now, in the place of where my email address was is the text "Use your Apple ID for iMessage." From here, I returned to "Messages," and next to "Receive At" my phone number was displayed.
    After following these steps I am able to send messages from my phone number, instead of from the email address associated with my apple id.
    The following things did not work for me:
    I have tried signing out from my apple ID via Settings>>Store but this did not work. I have tried setting my Caller ID as my number, but this didn't do anything (i.e. iMessages were still being sent via my email address). I have tried changing the aforementioned items and restarting my iPhone in various ways. The only thing that worked is what I mentioned above.

  • How do i get photos sent via email into the new photos app in yosemite 10.10.3

    Using mail on my mac, having upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.3 i now cant import photos sent via email into the new photos app. if i highlight the photo in mail and right click the mouse the option is still to export to iPhoto !!

Although it also gives me the option to save other places i cant work out how to save into the photo app

  • How do I set the default from email for invititations

    I use my ical calendar for different business and personal calendars.
    Is there any way to set up the "from" email account to coinscide with the calendar the event is made for.
    i.e. If I make a personal event, the invite is sent from my personal e-mail, and if I make a business appointment, the invite is sent from my business account.
    I was able to do this with google calendar, but I am trying to be all in the cloud.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    P.s. running 10.7 and iCal vs.5.0.1
    Thanks

    I understand that you want each of several email accounts to act independently, such that mail for account 1 is sent and received only on that account, then account 2 likewise, etc.
    For each email account, left click on the account name and then select 'View settings for this account'.
    On the 'Account Settings' page, look at the 'Reply-to-Address' (should be blank) and also select the 'Manage Identities' box, which shows the default name and email address. If the default is not for that account, you can add or edit the entries and set the default.
    Back on the 'Account Settings' page, select 'Outgoing Server (SMTP)' and check the user name/account there. It should be for the same account.
    For each account, the other accounts should not be mentioned in any of the places identified above.
