Import/Export SMS to/from iPhone have be must in Itunes

Import/Export SMS to/from iPhone have be must in Itunes

I have exactly the same problem as David Ting. I just bought a brand new iPhone 4 and just want to do the same thing that I did when moved from Symbian to Windows Mobile and from Windows Mobile to Android: import my old SMS messages and call history to my new device.
It's a _complete nonsense_ to be incapable of doing a so simple thing in iOS.
I'm really shocked with this impossibility. I'm starting to think that I just did a very wrong move choosing Apple.

  • Getting an error while importing/exporting the universe from my BO Designer

    Hi,
       I am facing a issue while importing/exporting the universe from my BO Designer to the Server.The error is mentioned below.
       'File Repository Server Input is down'
       Once I click the OK button on this error message, it displays  the message
       'Could not import the Universe'.
      I tried the check the status of the File Repository Server (Ouput and Input) and also the of the Root Directory on the  Physical Server and also my machine.They all have read-write access.
    Installed Version of the Universe Designer Client: Business Object XI Release 2 SP3
    Installed Version of the BO Enterprise Server: Business Object XI Release 2 SP2
      Can you please help me to resolve the issue

    Hi,
       The step you have mentioned may not be applicable to my issue as one of my colleagues can import/export the universe from the same server
    The second thing is that a DB2 Client v9 is installed on both mine and my colleagues system.The Designer software can recognise the DB2 drivers on his system but it cannot recognise the same drivers on my system.I even checked the versions of the BO software installed on his and my system and they are same.
    The only difference is that his machine is a Windows XP Machine and mine is a Network Desktop.
    Will any of the above two things will affect the operation of the BO Designer.
    Thanks

    unless you had them synced with icloud or some other email account, very unlikely

  • Windows 7 crash from iphone 6 plus sync with itunes 12.1.1.4

    The sync starts and then windows 7 will crash to the blue screen, dump the memory, and try to restart.  So far, I have not found a solution to this issue.  Please help.  (windows 7 crash from iphone 6 plus sync with itunes 12.1.1.4)

    Greetings strepac,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that iTunes is becoming unresponsive when you connect your iPhone and try to sync it. In this situation, I would recommend reading over the attached article and working through the suggested troubleshooting steps within.

  • Are the sounds from iPhone suppose to be on iTunes?

    are the sounds from iPhone suppose to be on iTunes on my playlist in my phone and computer?

    I have the 4 and 5S and other than the finger print reader there's really not much difference in ease of use. In my opinion the finger print reader makes the phone easier, or perhaps I should say nicer to use if you use the passcode lock. Both phones have the same OS version and operate the same way albeit the 5S is faster and smoother. You also get a bit of software eye candy with the 5S thats not on the 4. The camera on the 5S is significantly better than the 4 which I thought was quite good considering its a phone. Or is it a camera with a phone? No matter, there are other small differences but I think you'll appreciate what the 5S has to offer.

  • How to delete multiple songs from iPhone 5S without losing form iTunes? The unchek function has not worked. Why?

    How to delete multiple songs from iPhone 5S without losing form iTunes? The unchek function has not worked. Why?

    Sorry I had to reply through your profile Gail from Maine, my PC has java issues. In any event, when I delete them directly from my device everything is perfect and cool. However, in the rare instance I want to add new music that I actually buy in stores (I know, quite the unique and old-fashioned idea...but hey Im an audiophile) once I upload the tunes, everytime I sync my library it re-adds everything that I spent hours deleting. In a perfect world, I thought I could maintain a massive iTunes Library, and add or delete (remove) songs from my iPhone to save both memory or keep my iPhone selections more current/apt to my musical "tastes" at that time. I know about the whole playlist thing, but thought there might be an easier way. ie - checking/un-checking the little box next to the song name, and then doing a sync. Again, everytime I do this however, whether everything is checked or un-checked it adds the entire library! So frustrating. Any suggestions. Thank you graiously in advance for your help.

  • HT201269 Will my photos transfer from iphone 4 to 4s if I restore the 4s from iPhone 4 back up on iTunes?

    Will my photos that I took with iPhone 4 transfer from iphone 4 to 4s if I restore the 4s from iPhone 4 back up on iTunes?

    Do a backup of your 4, either to the cloud or your computer, depending on how you usually do this.
    If you backed up your 4 to the computer, connect the new phone to the computer at this point, if you restored it to the cloud, do NOT connect it to the computer (or you might get an old backup by mistake). Just connect it to a charger.
    When you first power up your new phone, it will ask you whether you want do configure it as a new phone or to restore it from a backup.  Select "from a backup".  The prodedure is slightly different for computer and iCloud backups, but you'll be able to figure it out.
    This will restore all your apps, settings, and camera roll.  Then you can either sync it to the computer or redownload your music and movies (depending on how you manage these things). 
    Once this is done, you can delete everything you don't want from the old phone.

  • Copy sms only from iPhone 2G to iPhone4?

    Hi folks,
    first of all sorry for my bad english. I would like to know if anyone knows how to transfer my sms from my current iPhone 2G to my new iPhone4? I don't wanna do a total backup and sync-back, 'cause I would like to use my new one as maiden as it is.
    Anyone?
    Best,
    JJ

    Yes, there is a way of doing it without having to restore everything, and without any hacks. It will require a restore, but it will be a restore of your iPhone 4 with your iPhone 2G's text messages. (It should work across different phones, I've done it across different software versions on the same phone successfully).
    (Note: this assumes you DON'T encrypt your iPhone backups)
    First, go to (make sure you have show hidden files and folders turned on):
    (if you are on a Mac) ~Library/Application Support/MobileSync/Backup
    (if you are on a PC) c:\Documents and Settings\Application Data\Apple Computer\MobileSync\Backup
    When you're there, work out which folder is your old iPhone. Then, find the file named
    3d0d7e5fb2ce288813306e4d4636395e047a3d28
    (the file extension will be either .mddata, .mdbackup or it will have no extension).
    If at this point you want to check to ensure that this is the correct phone's SMS file, you can go to http://insend.de/ and download a copy as a PDF or Excel file to check the contents.
    Once you're happy it's the right file, you need to copy it, and paste it into the backup folder of your new iPhone. Then head to iTunes, plug in your iPhone 4 and restore it from backup. All done!
    EDIT: Sorry if I didn't make it clear - your iPhone 4 backup will now contain the text messages so restore it from its own backup. You won't lose any of your contacts, apps etc but you gain text messages.

    Alternatively you could use OLE2 to do the bulk of the importing and exporting and then use the webutil file transfer functions to move the file to the client and then simply open the file there...That might be more efficient in terms of performance as well.

  • Import/export route targets from E-BGP ?

    hi all,
    a newbie question again,
    can i import/export rte target in a vrf from/to ebgp session,
    in all my readings i only see samples from import/export with iBGP peering
    thanks for answer

    Yes you can do it this way as well, without the MP-EBGP peering between the both AS's RR's. (You have missed the multi-hop neighbor statement)
    This will achieve the RT exchange between the PE's, so next you will have to import that RT on the other side.
    Once you have the RT with the routes exchanged you will have VPN labels as well populated for the routes on the remote side.
    Now you will have to implement a method to assign an IGP label on top of the VPN label (this label should be for the PE's loopback of AS 100 who advertised this route to AS 200)
    In your case, you can use the send-label command at the ASBR's for the IGP route of the PE;s in their AS' with a label. For this you can redistribute IGP into BGP and again BGP into IGP (with a route-map matching only PE's loopback in their AS and the remote AS).
    So you will effectively have 2 labels to switch traffic between the AS's (IGP and the VPN label).

  • Move SMS texts from iphone 3g to Iphone4

    Morning all. A nice delivery man has just brought me a shiney new Iphone4 which I would like to fill up with my old previous SMS text messages. The rest of the stuff I can sync without an issue. Is there any way of copying the data from one to the other?
    Cheers Simon

    I had an iPhone 3GS and wanted to transfer my SMS's  to my new iPhone 4
    I saw all the above methods
    Sorry to say but all are very confusing
    so I found this
    Extremely simple and easy method to solve (The SMS Transfer) issue
    I wanted to share with the community
    well here it goes
    Step One : Backup both your iPhones
    Step Two : Search and download iTools for iPhone free download (for PC or MAC)
    Step Three : Open itools & plug in your iphone 3GS
    Step Four : Your iPhone will be detected & all details would be displayed on the left Panel
    Step Five : Click on File Sytems
    Step Six : On the right Panel click on filesystem (Jailbreak)
    Step Seven : Go to filesystem/user/ library/sms
    Step Eight : On the far right panel, you will see some very important folders and files
    Step Nine : Simply Select All, Right Click and copy em in a new Folder may be on the desktop                     (Name it iPhone 3GS SMS)
    Step Ten : Disconnect iphone 3GS and connect iPhone 4
    Step Eleven : Repeat the steps from Five to Nine (Only copy them in a new folder and name it                      iPhone 4  SMS. (Note : We dont need these files n folders, but just in case                            something goes wron, we can replace them back)
    Step Twelve : Copy the files n folders from the directory on the desktop named iPhone 3GS SMS
                         and paste the in the iphone 4 here (the program will ask wether to replace                             existing files n folders, in some chinese lingo, but u can see Y and N on each                           buttons so click on the left (Y)
    And thats about it, You are done, As simple as that, All the SMS on the iPhone 3GS are transfered on the new device.
    Screen Shot Attached for your reference
    Caution : This worked like a charm for me, but it may not be the same for everyone so just in case anything goes wrong you can replace the previously saved files n folders in iPhone 4 SMS directory back. I am very clear, I am not responsible for any loss or damage, Do at your own risk. 

  • How do I receive SMS msgs from iPhone on my android

    I cannot seem to receive text messages from iPhone users on my android smart phone. Does anyone know if it's a carrier issue or the phone itself. Thanks in advance

    I apologize about the odd style but I'm using voice rec software.  I just got the Galaxy S five and I have this problem too after weeks of searching online I finally figured out the problem it is with iMessage even if you have your old phones imessage switched off. you have to get your friends to text you normally and send. If the text bubble shows up blue, press and hold choose option send as SMS or text and the bubble will change to green green means SMS blue is the iMessage so its up to the iPhone user to take literally a half of an extra step to send a text to you and if they don't do that then they're just jerks
