I'm so confuse about iMessage and texting

Help me

Why?
Just use the Messages app.
If it has a blue bubble it's imessage and when it's green it's SMS.
Blue only from iPhone to Apple devices with iMessage setup.

  • Confused about imessage and apple account

    So I just got my own icloud account. I used to share one with someone else but now I got my own. First, is the icloud account the same as apple account? Like is the apple store account the same as the icloud account?? Second, since I got this new account I started using it in imessage. But one problem is that it's not showing my phone number on the send and receive. But on the old account it does. Why is this? I'm super confused! What's the deal with all these accounts and it's relationship with imessage?
    i Have an iPhone 4S(ios 7), the newest ipod(ios 8) and an ipad air(ios 7)
    thank you

    My phone has been smashed I need to get records of all my iMessages and texts from the last month. How do I get these?

    Do you have a backup of your iPhone which contains these messages?
    If so, you can restore a new iPhone from that backup during setup.
    If not, the messages are gone.

  • HT1766 how do i print or save my imessages and text messages from my phone?

    how do i print or save my imessages and text messages from my iphone?

    When viewing the SMS messages, hit edit. You then have the opportunity to select whatever messages are needed. Forward these to your email or wherever you wish. You then have a text transcript in the body of an email that you can cut/copy/paste into Pages/Word/etc. for printing.

  • Help imessages and texts will say delivery failed since current update on my 5s.

    I have iOS8.1currently on my phone and software is up to date.  I have an  iphone 5s The last few weeks randomly both imessages and text messages will not go through. It will say "delivery failed". Sometimes that is the case and other times the message apparently goes through because I get a reply from the person at the other end of the message. The frequency this keeps happening is getting worse by the minute!!   Please help

    Hi Raquel2178,
    It seems you are unable to send or receive sms messages or use the iMessage service. That does sound troublesome. The following article may help you resolve this issue:
    Restart your device and check for updates
    Restart your device.
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Check for an iOS software update.
    Contact your carrier

  • Send group message as iMessage and text

    Is there a way to send a group message as both iMessage and text message? When texting two people, one with iPhone and one without, the person without doesn't get the message. The person who doesn't have an iphone used to and now when I try I send her an individual text, my iphone tries to send it as an iMessage. It will usually fixes it and sends it as a text. Could this be why the group messages aren't going through?

    The quick fix is to delete the conversation and start again but then you lose any history.
    Here's how to fix it without losing the conversation history:
    Start a new conversation with the people from the conversation Apple broke.
    Add yourself as a recipient too.
    Send a message to the conversation.
    You will see your sent message.
    You will then "receive" a group iMessage. This shows up as another conversation to the one you just sent the message to.
    To stop future messages from yourself also being sent to yourself, you can now "leave" the group conversation you started.
    Then just reply as normal to the conversation you "received" in step 5.
    After a while iOS will actually merge the new conversation with the old conversation you were trying to save. I'm not sure what triggers it to do that.

  • Confusion about Master data text

    Hello all, I am little bit confused about the modelling concept in BI7. My confusion is about the Text table creation and its concepts.
    I got a Flat File data in my PC .Here is the scenario:
    Material Num, Material Name,  Material Description
                1111,       Desk ,               Dining table
    Material Name and Material Description are the Attributes of Materaial Number here. When i created Infoobjects Material Number , Material Name (Attribute). I can see that system created a Text table with Short descripton and Language key selected. I understand that i have to load master data and text separately. My question is How did that "short text exists" box got changed?
    In my case "Material Description" is showing Text data "dining table" correct? do i have to create this material description Infoobject as an attributes of Material Num, and later on load this as Text data to it?
    Could anyone tell me how Text data /table come in to play in this example?  Under data/texts tab i see that "language dependent" and "short description" are checked. why "long text exist" and "med text" are not ticked? AFter clicking this T table i know its empty at this point, but is this table waiting for the data to be loaded from "Material Description" Field? if anyone could clarify this confusion i will really appreciat it..thanks
    DK

    Hi DK,
    When you create a characteristic, by default 'With Master Data' & 'With Text' option would be checked.
    We need to manually un-check this if the characteristic created by us is not master or doesn't have text.
    Also, by default 'Short Text Exists' is checked. Short Text can hold description upto 20 chars,
    Medium Text - 40 Chars & Long Text - 60 Chars. Depending on the length of the maximum possible length of description that could come from our source, we need to check the appropriate Texts.
    And you need not create a separate InfoObject for 'MAterial Description'.
    While loading the texts (using Text Transformation & DTP), you can map the Material Description to '0TXTSH' (InfoObject for Short Text).
    Hope this helps!

  • Why are my imessages and text messages in a different chat when im texting one person?

    when i am texting my friend and my message sends as a text everything is fine but when she replies with an imessage it goes into a different chat so i have to keep changing chats to reply depending on whether the message is an imessage or text message, how do i make it so they are in one chat?

    Greetings Tiffany,
    It sounds as though you are receiving iMessages from your friend yet she is receiving SMS text messages from you rather than iMessages, and this is causing your conversations to appear as two separate items in the Messages application, is that correct?
    I would suggest following the steps in this article to troubleshoot this issue, so that what you send is sent as an iMessage -

  • Confusion about Kodo and JCA

    Hi,
    I'm a bit confused about Kodo's Connection Architecture strategy. It is my understanding that
    PMF's can be built to use the connection architecture. Along this line, one would configure the
    ConnectionFactory or ConnectionFactoryName, and possibly the ConnectionFactory2 and
    ConnectionFactory2Name properties in a PMF. The result of the PMF implementation supporting the
    connection architecture is nice integration with the application servers in terms of security,
    transaction, and connection management. One can lookup in JNDI a reference to a Kodo PMF that
    supports datastore transactions or to another one that supports optimistic transactions or to
    another one that supports NTR, and with proper settings of the transactional properties and suitable
    application code, one's sesson bean will work.
    But from what I can see of Kodo's JDOPersistenceManagerFactory class, it, itself, implements the
    ManagedConnectionFactory interface, meaning, I think, that this class is resource adaptor. And that
    the part that confuses me. Why would Kodo be a resource adaptor? I thought it used a resource
    adaptor, which I think is the same thing as a connection factory.
    Anyway, I'm puzzled, and I'm hoping that someone could straighten me out.

    David-
    The fact that Kodo can integrate into an application server as a
    Resource Adaptor, and section 3.2.2 of the specification that says that
    the PersistentManagerFactory should be able to utilize a Resource
    Adaptor to obtain connections to the data store are two separate issues.
    We implement Kodo itself as a Resource Adaptor in order to provide ease
    of integration into recent application servers. Your confusion is
    understandable, since we do not actually yet support the use of Resource
    Adaptors as the Connection Factories as per section 3.2.2.
    Does that make sense?

  • Confused about XPostFacto and the 8GB Limit - Please help

    Hi all,
    I've been running XPostFacto 4.0 on my Apple G3 Desktop (Rev C, 640MB Ram, 533 Mhz G4 OWC CPU upgrade) for sometime and is running great.
    But I have a question about the 8GB rule.
    This computer only runs off of a Seritek SATA card. There is a 35 GB Raptor drive on it, the first 7.81 GB is the 10.3.9 drive, and rest is for applications and files.
    I added a 160 GB Hitachi drive to the SATA card that I moved from my G4 MDD computer. It already has 3 partitions: 30 GB for 10.3.9, 10GB for OS9, and 115 GB for audio production files.
    If I wanted to boot off the Hitachi drive, would I have to re-format and create a 8 GB partition?
    As is, if I try to boot off the drive I just added, XPostFacto tries to synchronize the files, then it invariably crashes.
    I tried reading the manual again, but I get confused about the Mac OS X Installer and the 8GB rule, and so on.
    Thanks!

    i wound up erasing the partition on the transferred drive and carboncopycloning the beige's OS X drive to it...and now the transferred drive is booting ok!
    now, i'm thinking of copying the whole raptor drive over and re-partitioning the raptor drive (strangely, the raptor appears with about 9 partitions on Disk Utility, though the only two that i created are clickable...wonder if the OS sees this drive as something like scsi).
    this is a little asides the point, but on my MDD, the 7200 hitachi seemed to test as "faster" than the 10000rpm raptor in most categories. would the 7200 drive infact be better for OS style-tasks?

  • Pictures that are sent to me both using iMessage and texts won't load on my iPhone

    I have received many pictures from other phones, both iPhones and other non iPhones. iMessage and standard text messages have both contained pictures. However when I want to view the pictures, I cannot. When I click on the pictures it takes me to a black screen that says its loading but it never finishes. I have left it loading for over an hour with no luck of seeing the picture. I have tried it on many wifi networks and both 4g and 3G cell service with no luck. I have now figured out to save the picture then enter the photos app to look at the picture. While this solution works, I simply want my pictures to load when I click on them so I can see if it is one I need to save. Any help on how to fix the problem?

  • Small confusion about aggregates and attribute change run.. plz explain

    hi bw experts,
    i am having a small confusion regarding the aggregates and attribute change run.
    as far as in know if there is any new master data loaded, then we will activate it by context menu on the particular info object and select the option activate master data.
    the second one is going to tools--?apply hierarchy/attribute change run option.
    my doubt is is the attribute change run related to aggregates is yes then how,.?
    appreciated if you plz help me in detail both these concepts and wherther there is any connection between them.
    thanks & regards.
    vijay..

    Hi Vijay sagar,
    ATTRIBUTE CHANGE RUN:
    1)It's used after you change (add/delete/modify) attribute in the master data. You've to make it in order to have an effect after you modify it.
    2)Once the master data has been loaded, the hierarchy/attribute change run is performed. Once this process chain has been ended correctly, master data and texts are available in an active format in SAP BW.
    To get it :
    1. tcode : RSA1.
    2. Tools -> Apply Hierarchy/Attribute Change
    3. tap on Info-object list button (checking what master data you've modified before).
    4. tap on selection button for type of job
    5. Execute.

    AGGREGATES:
    1)Aggregates make it possible to access InfoCube data quickly in reporting. In doing so, aggregates help improve performance. (See Aggregate.)
    2)In order to be able to insert aggregates effectively, it is important to find out which aggregates are frequently used or have not been used in a long time.
    3)Aggregates contains not only general data but also data that appears in an aggregate after data is filled and rolled up. Reporting in this InfoCube reveals how often data was loaded into an aggregate, how long filling and rolling up took, and whether it took longer to read or write the data.
    4)Adding when Rolling Up in Aggregate  counts the time required to write the data to the aggregate.
    The Records, Read for Aggregate Structure key figure  counts the data records that are read for constructing the aggregate.

  • Where can I find my imessages and texts?

    I broke my iphone last week and had to replace it. In the meantime, I've been getting texts and calls like crazy (the screen is gone due to water damage). I had my stuff backed up to itunes and icloud. I can see my pictures in the photostream, all my apps, and music are in itunes. When I logged on to icloud.com I saw that I have my contacts and calendar all there.  So my phone came in, I just bought a used one off an ebay store my friends all use, since my upgrade is almost due. I do the restoring from icloud, then sync my phone to itunes....everything shows up but my texts. I really don't need them all, If I can go find them, read the specific ones I need from imessage and pull up the call history from last week from the numbers i forgot to save--I would be insanely happy with just that.  It's work related, so that's really the only reason why I would even care to get them back. Thanks in advance.

    You can't view them on iCloud.com.  You have to view them on a device or computer that is signed into your iCloud account with photo stream enabled unless you create a shared stream with the public website option enabled (which gives you a private url to view them on the web from your web browser).
