HT4623 Is there any way of saving text messages on my iphone 4s?

Is there a way of saving text messages on my iphone? On my old phone, I could send them to a separate folder. As the messages link on this phone, I've found myself deleting messages that contained important infor from previous conversations and I need to get it back!

Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

You could also forward the texts to your email address or take screen shots.

  • Is there any way to print text messages from an iPhone 3gs?

    Is there any way to print text messages from an iPhone 3GS?

    The only ways to print any text messages from any of the iOS devices is to either do a print screen and then print those photos, or you could look for a program called TouchCopy that will allow you to download the SMS to the computer and you can handle them from there.

  • I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone.

    I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone from this ipad. Everytime I try to send a message to a person that does not have an Apple product ( Iphone or Ipad ) it comes up saying contact is not registered for iMessage and wont send it. I can only send them a message from my iPhone 4 instead. Do I have to install a new App from the App store to send these non iMessage cell users a message?

    Is there any way to actually delete messages from my iPhone? I have already synced my iPhone, updated it, and deleted all of my backups but the messages I have "deleted" still appear in the spotlight search.

    If you already have an iPhone backup or an iCloud backup, just follow the instructions on the page below

    If you didn't back up your iPhone, try to use WhatsApp Pocket to recover your chats:

  • Is there any way to delete text messages from the external screen of an LG EnV3?

    The internal screen of my phone doesn't work, so I've been texting from the external key pad. But my inbox has gotten full and I can't receive texts anymore. Is there any way to delete texts using only the external screen of the EnV3?

    It was awhile ago and I'm not totally sure, but I think this was discussed and the conclusion was that you can't delete texts using the external screen of the Env3. **Edit  (Found one thread: http://community.vzw.com/t5/Messaging-Text-Picture-IM-etc/No-option-to-delete-text-messages-from-front-of-LG-enV3/m-p/43042#M1684 )  It came up in one other thread that I could find and the solution was to use the internal, and similar steps were given - the only difference was using the OK for Menu and #2 for Messages, rather than the left soft key for Messages.  vWhatever works... 
    What you CAN do, is open the flip, left soft key (which is the Messages menu), and there are several options - these are the text messaging ones -
    1. New Message
    2. Inbox (#)
    3. Sent (#)
    4 Drafts (#)
    Press the right soft key (options) and your choices are:
    1.Erase Inbox
    2.Erase Sent
    3.Erase Drafts
    4.Erase All
    If you choose Erase All, then OK - it will erase all except unread messages, and locked messages. If you choose any of the numbers, then hit OK, it will erase ALL in that category, read or not, so I would choose Option 4 to erase all but the unread.
    HTH, and post back if you have further questions...

    Get third-party software, like this:

    There is no Apple supported way to do so.

  • Is there a way to send text messages on an iPhone instead of iMessages?

    My mom and I both have iPhones. My mom has a data plan while I don't, meaning my iPhone is Wi-Fi only while hers isn't. Whenever my mom tries to send me a text it will only send it as an iMessage text, and not an SMS text. Since my iPhone is Wi-Fi only I can only receive her messages if my phone is connected to Wi-Fi. This problem could easily be fixed if my mom just turns off iMessage in the settings, but she would have to constantly turn her iMessage on and off, just so she can send me a text.This has caused many problems because my mom would send me an important message, only to not have it read by me because I can't get her iMessage text without Wi-Fi. Is there a way for her to send me only SMS texts to my iPhone, even if iMessage is still turned on in her settings?

    I don't think this works. Even if I turn off iMessage on my iPhone, anyone who has iMessage turned on on their phone will automatically send an iMessage text. For example the picture shows what will show up on a device that has iMessage turned on, when they're about to send a message. As you can see there's an "iMessage" sign in the text box. Wether or not iMessage is turned off on my phone, it doesn't matter to the other device which doesn't know that. It's not like turning off iMessage on my phone will automatically send a message to the other phone saying iMessage is turned off, so they can now start sending SMS texts. So basically, turning off iMessage on my phone does absolutely nothing. Sorry if this was a little confusing.

  • Is there any way to copy email messages from an iPhone to a computer (pc or mac)?

    My pc with my mail database was formatted and the mails lost. I have about 1000 mails on my iPhone that I desperately want to transfer back to my desktop.
    My mail was on a POP server and I have no copies anywhere other than on the iphone.
    I am not concerned about future email messages  - my question is about transferring existing messages from the iphone to a computer.
    Any help is much appreciated, in have googled this to death and can't find a solution!!

    This might help..

  • Is there any way of saving progress in a game/app when you remove it from the ipad to the cloud

    Is there any way of saving progress in a game/app when you remove it from the ipad to the cloud.
    Basically i have a 16gb ipad2 (big mistake) so space on the ipad  is precious. obviously i occasionally need to remove games/apps to make way for other apps from my cloud. The problem is, when I remove an app to make way for the new app I lose all my progress in that game apart from the option to save leader-board stats (which is the least important thing to me). Its very annoying to get so far in a game only to have to remove it to make way for a movie and lose all my progress!!!!!
    Any way round this?

    I do not know how to save game data when deleting an app, but as for updating, if you connect the ipad to a computer and do the update through itunes, you will not have to download the update package to the ipad just to the computer. so you don't have to free up quite so much space, as for movie and photo storage you can look at the sandisk wireless and airstash wireless SD card adapters, they create their own wireless network and come with apps that allow you to store and then stream movies to the ipad instead of loading them to the ipad storage.
