Ihave over 7gb of saved text messages that i cant delete, ive deleted all my texts and it still says that. ive read that backing up with icloud and turning off documents and data would eliminate this issue... well how...?
icloud will not allow me to backup my phone because of the 7gb of data its too much for the 5gb free space on icloud and i have the documents and data turned off in the icloud settings so i dont understand whats taking up all the space? the only thing i have on the settings is my photos and thats only 4gb. SOMEONE HELP ME!!!
I have this identical problem. For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad. Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something. Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads. I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time) Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc. There still hasn't been a solution.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

How can I save to iCloud after turning OFF "Documents and Data"?
I seldom store documents on iCloud, and I was tired of having iCloud be the default save location for my Numbers documents, so I went into iCloud Preferences and de-selected "Documents and Data". That worked. Now iCloud is no longer the default save location.
But if I wanted to save the occasional spreadsheet on iCloud, how do I get it there without turning "Documents and Data" back on? I thought there was a way to select iCloud as an optional save location, but can't figure out how to do it.I think the easiest way to get around this problem is to keep a blank document in your Documents folder , the duplicate and save as needed. The default loacation in this case is where the document is currently stored.

I turned off documents and data in my iCloud setting on my iPhone. How do I turn it back on?
I turned off "documents and data" from my iCloud settings on
my iPhone. How do I turn it back on?If you're running iOS 8, it's on by default and you don't have the option to turn it off. You can confirm that it's on by checking Settings>iCloud>Storage>Manage Storage and make sure you see your apps are listed under the Documents & Data setting. (It will only list apps that sync documents & data with iCloud.)

I don't want to backup my documents and data on iCloud. When I try to turn this option off, I see "If you turn off documents and data, all documnets stored in iCloud will be deleted from this Mac"
Yikes! What the heck is that all about and how can I get around it?The documents and data will remain on the iCloud server and your Mac will no longer have access to them if your turn this off. To keep a local copy, you'll need to save them first as discussed under "Documents" in this article: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht4910.

Why turning off Document and Data in iCloud would erase all files in iPad?
When turning off calendar or contact in iCloud, I can select to keep existing entries in the iPad device, but there is no option to "keep" doc. & data files in my iPad device? How can I select files I want to keep in iCloud rather than upload them in a "wholesale" fashion?
Hi doodlebuglondon. I understood you throughout the thread as I have the same situation. I turned it on, then decided immediately to turn it back off. It then gives you the scary warning, assuming you understand under what circumstances documents got stored in the iCloud. Like you, I had no idea. But I did see 5 GB of 5GB available on iCloud Storage, which was a hint. So I opened a folder with some Pages documents, turned off Documents & Data, clicked the big scary "Delete from Mac" button. If it had really deleted my iWorks documents, like you, I would have had to restore perhaps 40 or 50 disparate folders. Whew!
Did it work out OK for you? I note you were very clear in pointing out you hadn't actively put anything in iCloud, but who knows whether Apple magically puts stuff in iCloud for you. I couldn't find that explained anywhere in Apple's "instructions", but I'm sure it's buried in there somewhere. -
I don't want to sync my 'Documents and Data' with iCloud any more (iMac, iPhone and iPad). When I go into iCloud in System Prefs and try to uncheck the Documents and Data box it tells me 'all docments stored in iCloud will be deleted from this Mac'. Really need to keep all my docs and quite shocked that iCloud would even consider deleting them from my iMac. Does anyone know any way round this other than backing everything up and restoring it after it's been deleted? Thanks!

To whom it may help,
I use my iChat to do video chat with my granddaughter. I used to do iChat without any problem to connect with her in New York. However, After Mobil Me account closed, I accounted connection problems frequently. Sometime, I had to turn-off my computer then re-started the computer to make it work again. . When I had this problem to connect on iChat (the Mac did not allow me to choose "available"), the poped out window message said that " the iChat lost the Mobil Me account [email protected]" "The server connection was unexplected disconnect". Do you know what is my problem? My Apple ID for iCloud and previous Mobil Me account should be [email protected] I am no longer using [email protected] for Mobil Me e-mail address. My current iCloud e-mail address is [email protected] is no longer of using [email protected] account for my e-mail. If this is the problem, please let me know how to remove the [email protected] account from your system. Thanks!

How do I back up iPad? I do turn off completely daily.
As long as you keep it turned on, then yes it is on. What I meant is that it must be connected to a WiFi network as well as WiFi being turned on.
You can have WiFi turned on in the settings, but that doesn't mean that you are connected to a network. When you are at home, you would be connected to your home WiFi network. If you try again tonight - or whenever you plug your iPad into recharge, just don't power the iPad off. Leave it turned on and the backups should occur automatically.
But let me also say that you so have to have this enabled properly in the settings. Settings> iCloud> Storage & Backup> iCloud Backup> On. Make sure you have the iPad set up for automatic backups. -
Hy ;D I bought an Ipod touch 4G 3 mouth ago , and recently the i noticed that the battery is drained even off .... is that normal? I turn him off( with the red bar) and put out side the bed , when i Wake up tha batery is about 80% ... (no Wi-Fi on)
And How long the ipod battery goes with the stant mode ?
Thanks alot for any oneI did a test on mine.
My 4th generation model running 4.3.1 last 10 days on and in sleep mode.
At the end of 10 days I got the 20% low battery warning.
I would try a RESET on yours.
Hold down the Home button and the Sleep/Wake button at the same time until you see the Apple logo.
It will reset and restart itself in a few minutes.
See if that helps. -

Did anyone ever suggest you reset your PRAM?
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=2238
Also might want to try resetting the SMC, although I
doubt there's an issue there.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=304123
I'm getting tired of people who supposedly know what
they're doing simply guessing that resinstalling the
OS might solve the issue. It's like trying to dissect
a frog with a sledge hammer, and wondering why you
didn't learn anything about anatomy in the process.
These sorts of things, although bizarre, should be
(and probably are) fixable without major surgery.
Thanks for the suggestion... but I think my first question would be why these parameters would need re-setting? This is a new machine... It has never been shut down hard. It is used at most 10 hours per week... mostly using Office 2004 for MAC. I need to figure this out as I will soon need it as a Cs2/CS3 - Aperture workhorse.
I too agree that it is best not to use a sledge when a scalpel is needed... but as a novice to the MAC world I may have been misled by Apple support. I seems to have fixed the symptoms ( some) but appears NOT to have addressed the cause... which is what I am after.
Would TechTool Pro detect a bad HD or RAM?
Thanks.... -
I just upgraded to Yosemite 10.10.1 and would like to turn off sending crash data to App developers. How do I do this?
Hello prlipton,
If you want to stop sending reports to Apple and developers when apps crash, then go to System Preferences, click on Security & Privacy and click on Privacy. You will then see on the left side of the window an section for Diagnostics & Usage with the option to turn off sending crash data to app developers. Take a look at the article below for more information.

Please could you advise? ... After installing Itunes 11.3.1.2 on my Laptop and when reconnecting my iPad2 via USB, it is no longer visible under 'My Computer'. Any advice on resolving this issue would be most welcome. Thanks
Any one or a combo may help
Give your iPad a reset. Hold down the sleep and home keys for about 20 seconds. When you see the silver apple, let go and let it reboot and try again.
Try a different USB cord
Try a different USB port
Try rebooting your computer
Try closing/opening iTunes.
If you go through that and it doesn't work, try going into the control panel, add/remove programs. Uninstall iTunes, Apple Mobile Device Service, Apple Application Support. Then redownload and reinstall iTunes and try again -
