  • Can't extract ringtone from text message

    My son sent me a ring tone via text message. The last time he did this I was able to touch the ring tone on my screen and save it to my phone. This time it won't let me. The only difference I can see if that this ring tone was made using Quicktime. Is there something I should be doing to save it to my phone? My computer was hit with a virus so I can't even send it to my email and drag it over.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    When I got the iPhone in June I set it up on my laptop. The ringtones were sent to me by my sons. I thought I had put them on my phone my saving them directly on my iPhone from a text, but everyone is telling me I didn't. So I am assuming I synched them over. In July my laptop was hit by some virus. The laptop had to by wiped clean. I got my laptop back last week. I had to download a new iTunes to my the computer. I did that. I transferred my music purchases over, my app purchases and I synched my phone, but the existing ringtones on my phone did not synch over. When I went to click the synch button I got that bizarre message. Fearfull I would loose those ringtones I did not sync. I have a ringtone that my son emailed me in the library of my iTunes, but I can't get it to my phone because if I sync it I am afraid I will loose it.

  • How to remove recipient from text message

    I made a rookie mistake. I'm sending an important group text out. I inserted my number into the recipient box. So my texts appear TWICE!
    What is the quickest way to fix this with out having to start completely over. Im not talking about the iMessage groups. Just a texted message with multiple recipients.
    Thanks

    I don't think it works for text message group, only groups in imessage.

  • Setting Ringtones from Pic Messages

    I just got the Droid Incredible and I received a picture message with a sound attached and would like to set it as my ringtone, but no matter what I try, I cannot figure out how to do it.. I have looked all through the manual and unless it's hidden, it's not there. I figured out how to save the picture, but you can't save the sound the same way. Please Help??
    Thanks

    I have provided some information below that may help.
    Depending on the message you will be allowed to save it as a picture or a sound (unfortunately not both).
    Picture message –
    Step 1 - From the downloaded image, touch and hold the picture for approximately three seconds
    Step 2 - Touch Save image.
    Sound message –
    Step 1 - From the home screen, touch the applications tab (located in the lower-left).
    Step 2 - Touch Messages.
    Step 3 - Touch the message.
    Step 4 - Touch and hold the message.
    Step 5 - Save as ringtone

  • How long does Apple store text messages?  I need old messages from July-Sept 2011

    How long does apple store text messages.  I need old text messages from July - September 2011.  These messages were NOT deleted from phone.  I can only go back as far as July 1, 2012.  Please help, this is important!!!

    Thank you!!!
    What I concluded is that the phone information (with text message content) that we have came from the police department...when they conducted interviews, they asked for their phones and obtained the content, pictures, etc. that way. We also have logs from AT&T with information starting a few months prior to the incident; this information, however, is solely limited to who sent, who received, when, type of data, etc - NO content. I'm assuming that those are the logs that can be subpoenaed after the alloted amount of time, say, 10 days.
    Does that sound correct?
