  • Lost text messages after ios 8 upgrade

    I recently upgraded my iphone 5 to ios 8 through  iTunes on my PC. After the upgrade, I  lost all of my text messages and many  of my photos on my photostream. My photos were backed up, so I'm not as worried about that. Is there any way to recover the lost text messages?

    Same here.
    Haven't found a solution yet.
    please report as a bug - Apple do not monitor these forums.

  • I replaced my iPhone with a Galaxy 5 and am not receiving all of my text messages. The sales person told me to remove my phone number from iTunes to stop this from happening. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages?

    I replaced my iPhone with a Samsung Galaxy5 and I am not receiving all of my text messages now. The rep at the store told me to go to iTunes and take my phone # off of the account and that would fix the problem. Is that true? What does iTunes have to do with text messages anyway?

    You need to remove your phone number from the iMessage system.

  • Anyone have a problem sending text messages being delivered after few minutes up to five minutes?

    Has anyone have a problem sending text messages and the messages won't get delivered after few minutes? From time to time I would have this problem and it's annoying.  I would expect someone to receive it by then and response to my text right away.  But when I look up the text it hasn't been delivered and it's in the process.  I would hear that the message get delivered after few minutes? What gives? I never had a problem with my iphone 4 i think? Now with iOS 5 it let's me know whether it is delivered or not.  This new feature is awesome but disappointing when I know my text hasn't been delivered right away.  I'm not sure if it's the software or my iphone 4s or my carrier? anyone suggestions?  Thanks!!

    I have the same problem when sending iMessages.. Wasnt sure if it was apple or Sprint? But it happens VERY often and I end up having to send it as a text message instead

  • Does anyone have Ford sync allowing text messaging with IOS 7.0.4?

    I had all the settings working when I was on ios 6, but now that I have upgraded it quit working.  I removed the sync from my phone and removed the phone from my phone from sync then paired again.  Then set the sync notifications back to on but still no text.  Does anyone have ford sync allowing text messaging with IOS 7.0.4?

    I need to update, my messaging is now working.  Apparently after going through the steps and the settng notifications to on all I had to do was turn off the car, open the door, and then return.  When I got in my car this morning the text messaging (recieve only) was working.

  • TS4097 we have multiple users in our family and multiple devices all sharing one itunes account.  i think we are all synced to one icloud account and it is a nightmare....contacts lost, text messags showing up on multiple devises etc.  how do we fix this?

    We have our family sharing one itunes account.  we have 3 iphones, 2 macbook airs, 2 ipads and 1 mac.  I am not sure how we even got started on the icloud but somehow we did and everything is a mess.  The ipads are showing the text messages, the contacts are all combined, the apps that my duaghter downloads are appearing on all devices.  how do we fix this so contacts are not shared, messages are not shared and apps are not automatically synced to all devises?

    You have two different issues going on.  You are getting each other's messages because you are sharing the Same Apple ID for iMessage.  This can be corrected by going to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive on add the devices and doing one of the following:
    Either uncheck the email address shown under "You can be reached by iMessage at" on all of your devices; or
    If you want to continue to receive iMessages at this email address on one of your devices, on all of the other ones tap the Apple ID at the top, sign out, then sign back in using a different Apple ID (so all devices will be using a different Apple ID for iMessage).  Note: you can continue to share an Apple ID for purchasing from the iTunes and App stores.  It does not need to be the same as the ID you are using for iMessage, FaceTime and other services.
    The second issue is that you are sharing the same iCloud account on your devices.  When you do this any data you sync with the shared iCloud account such as contacts is merged and will appear on all devices connected to the account.  To fix this you both need to have separate iCloud accounts (you can continue to share the same Apple ID for purchasing from the iTunes and app stores). 
    First decide which device(s) will be keeping the current iCloud account.  On the one(s) that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else that you want to keep on the device(s), save these to the camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. 
    Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account.  (This will only delete the account from this device, not from iCloud.  The device(s) that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.)  When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On [iDevice].  Next, set up a new iCloud account using a separate Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom).  Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge.  This will upload the data to the new account.  Repeat this process for all the devices that you need to migrate to new accounts.
    When finished, to un-merge the data in your accounts you will have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting the other person's contacts from your account, and vice versa).

  • I have a 6 plus and I have lost text messages. This seemed to happen after my last update .

    I have a 6 plus phone . Just after the last update I have lost many text messages ?

    SSorry text message doesn't delete by itself.  If you backup your phone prior to the update then restore from your back up.

  • Help, I need to get back lost text messages??

    My phone broke in Jan, it froze and would not allow me to do anything with it. I wasn't thinking at the time about all my data because I knew the phone backed everything up. Also I had a certain amount of messages saved to phone. Since they sent me a new phone, I was able to retrieve all of my pictures, I was not able to get those text messages. I really need them. Does Verizon hold on to messages for a certain amount of time for legal reasons? Any help would be great, thank you Lisa .

        lmsizemore,
    I'm sorry to hear about your phone, I know how hard it is to know messages have been lost since I keep most of mine. I'm glad you now have a replacement and pictures restored. Unless you had an appliation to backup your messages, the messages can't be restored. You can access your messaging history(date, time, number) from My Verizon, but no content is available.

  • Lost text messages, slow and apps that crash. Is upgrade worth it on a 3G?

    Upgrade was slow and interupted. Finally everything seemed ok but then I found I'd lost all my text messages.
    Can anyone help me get them back please?
    Once over this shock I realised the only big change seemed to be to the folders - utilities etc - and the new look mail app. Both ok mail more so but nothing incredible.
    Then the worst thing of all. The phone seems so slow. Big delay in accepting input actions like 'done' etc. Then my safari app crashed - on an apple page! Then iPod app crashed. Am only using about 6gb of my 16!
    Is it worth it? Can I revert to os3? If so how?
    Oh and finally when I'm typing this- in landscape mode- I can't even see the words I'm typing as the screen constantly jumps to 4 lines above the new text? Typing blind is not good at all.
    Thanks for any answers to above.

    Hi Butch,
    Thank you very much for your help. Strong case you put forward!
    Just wondering, if your iMac is about the same age, have you noticed any slowing down at all since updating everything? Do you find LR3 with Snow Leopard runs quicker on your iMac than LR1 did with 10.4?
    Thanks again.
    Best wishes.
    I find it runs quicker and more responsive for most tasks ... but LR3 adds some new features that that use more computing power, while it isn't what I would consider slow, it didn't increase speed dramatically though it is very stable and consistent ... I've had no crashes or problems and LR3 runs as well as LR2.6 did for me.
    I should also note that my catalog is on the startup drive, my image files are on external FW800 drives. I think this helps keep things flowi smoothly. I also try to keep the use of too many other apps to a minimum when I am working a high volume shoot in LR, like a large event or wedding ... this keeps as many resources available to LR as possible.
    On the other hand, PSCS5 64 bit on 10.6 flies compared to PSCS3 on 10.4.

  • Contact phone numbers show instead of contact names on my iPad in text messages etc. How do I change it so their names show

    Did you change your sim card? I had this same problem because I moved countries and had to add a 1 before the number and area code.

  • TS2755 Lost text messages

    I got my new iPhone 5S today but, having restored it via MacBook and iCloud, I've lost the last 3 months of text messages. Can I get them back?

    Are you using a different Apple ID than you used when you created the iCloud backup?
    Are you using a different telephone number?
    Are you using a different cellular carrier?
    I believe any of these items would cause you to lose your old text messages.

  • HT3939 I have problems with my text messaging. Plus i can not send or receive from non owner of iPhones

    When i first started texting my text would go through gmail to apple iphones. After I  correct this problem  I am not able to text message non apple phones and i wasn't able to start with

    I'd suggest you contact your email provider. They may actually have a problem.

  • Poor service and lost text messages

    Yes Ive been with Verizon for almost 4 years now and have never had problems like this before. my cell in my apt barely gets one bar in non 3g status. but however everyone else gets great service here. and for the last few months my phone has not been sending or receiving text messages from other verizon customers and att customers, it sucks because i use my phone for work and 90 percent of it is texting my co workers about the status of a job or the status of a part coming in! How can i get this fixed or do i just need to find a new cell phone carrier?

    There are a couple reasons this could be happening to you.
    1.) Verizon Wireless, and any other phone company, does not gaurantee phone service in your home because there are too many variables. Such as: what your house is made out of. For example, if your walls are made out of concrete that is a foot thick, that can definitely mess with the service.
    2.) It could be an issue with your device. Quite possibly your phone may be on its last limb and is just having an issue. Perhaps you have an Iphone 4 without the special case ;p
    3.) Do you live by mountains or any large buildings that could perhaps get in the way of the best service possible?
    4.) When is the last time you did a PRL update? Dial *228 opt 2 so your phone can pull from the nearest cell phone towers.
    Verizon Wireless offers the best coverage possible when it comes to cell phone companies.Changing companies is not going to help much. If that *228 opt 2 does not work, there are 2 things I would suggest.
    Either go get a new phone or get a network extender.
    Network extenders do exactly what they are called.
    I hope you get this figured out

  • I have no inbound or text message information, outbound only

    why is it that i can only veiw outbound numbers from calls made on my phone? when i called verizon i was told to TAKE MY PHONE BACK TO THE STORE I BOUGHT IT FROM".. needless to say, they told me it wasnt something they could control in their office. they just SELL the phones. so, 20.$ worth of gas and 50 HALE MARYS LATER... iam still trying to get someone to fix it to where i can view my usage, both inbound as well as out. along with text messages sent and received, i dont think that is to much to ask... does anyone know something that i can 're-set on my phone, or maybe something i am not doing right??

    I look forward to hearing from you!

  • TS4036 Lost text messages

    My last month of text messages dissapeared !

    If you have a recent backup then you could restore your device and try to get your old messages back, but consider that you would have to restore the whole device (including apps, data etc.).
