Instant Messaging on the iPhone (AIM,Yahoo,MSN)
Are there any talks of instant messaging becoming an available option on the iPhone.
There is plenty of talk by users but none from Apple. If Apple is planning on providing an IM application for the iPhone at some point, such information is not announced or discussed ahead of time by Apple.
There are plenty of web based methods for accessing IM on the iPhone which work well.

How do I instant message on my iPhone
Sorry, but I can not figure out how to Instant Message on my iPhone. I called AT&T and they told me about the Settings but I can not comprehend how to actually send an Instant Message.
I refuse to text and thought that's what my daughter was doing but she was IM me. AT&T said I do not get charged to IM.
Could someone please give me a step by step method?
Please........Sorry, but guess I'm just stupid. I guess I must be referring to iMessage?
Yes, I had gone into Settings>Messages>iMessage>On... But after that I got lost.
I wanted to send a photo as my daughter did to me but simply could not figure it out.
I tried clicking on the photo and send but must be doing something wrong. I even asked my daughter how she did it but of course she's didn't know. She was afraid it had gone as a text message which she knows I don't do. -
I just got a new iPad air and also own an iPhone 5. I'm receiving most of my text messages on the iPhone, but some are now also showing up on my iPad. I don't want them on my iPad, any suggestions on how to get them to stop showing up n my iPad?
Go to settings>messages>send and receive at>you can be reached by iMessages at> Uncheck your phone number and you can select your Apple ID emal address if you want to use that for messages.

You could take a screen shot (hold and release both buttons simultaneously) and then email the resulting image to someone.

i have an apple 3g, tried to upgrade it to a 4.2 version, (previously it was 4.1). it wasnt successful, the computer asked us to restore it to the version which was last operational, and while restoring an error message appeared "the iphone could not be restored, an unknown error occured
"This error is caused by attempts to downgrade the iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch's software. This can occur when you attempt to restore using an older .ipsw file. Downgrading to a previous version is not supported. To resolve this issue, attempt to restore with the latest iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch software available from Apple."
Taken directly from this article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275.
Plug your iPhone into iTunes and update it to the latest supported version, which is 4.2.1.

I want to know if there's any way to receive incoming Google Talk messages in the iPhone Messages app? What I mean by this is the app your receive text messages in. The reason I ask is because in the new "Messages" app for the Mac, you can include your Google Talk account.
If I recall correctly, it's possible to send a Google Talk message out as an SMS (though there are apparently limits on how many in a given time period in order to prevent spam). That would be the only way as far as I know. Messages on the Mac seems to have folded some of iChat's features into it, so it works a bit differently.
Best of luck. -

when I open the settings and messages of the iPhone 4s I get stuck in a white screen, what should I do? the keyboard to open there is minute, I can not open the settings in any way.
Try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray BEFORE doing the reset.

This Error Code is indicative of the Device being jailbroken / Hacked...

message that "The iPhone could not be restored. An unknown error occurred (3194)."
How can I fix it?Usually that means the iPhone was hacked to unlock it from the original
carrier .
Updating the operating system locks it back to that original carrier
You could try this

However if the iPhone was hacked it is probably a paper weight now
and as this is an Apple hosted forum you can get no further help here -
I have a 16 GB iPhone 4S. Tonight when I went to sync with my iTunes on my MacPro, I received an error message that the iPhone could not be sync'ed because it needed 6.25 GB more space. I still have 2.5 GB free. I sync'ed last night fine. How could I need 8.75 GB (6.25 +2.5) more space on a 16GB iPhone. I have added nothing but audio podcasts to my iTunes library on my Mac in the last two days and I have not change the sync setting on my iPhone. Something has gone haywire. Any ideas. Mahalo, Oahu Guy
I resolved this after some analysis. Turnes out that iTunes was not recognizing that my music was already installed on my iPhone, so when I tried to sync, iTunes was attempting to load all my music a second time, and there was not enough room on my iPhone for that. I did a restore from backup today and this appears to have resolved the problem. I initiatied an iTunes sync and it worked fine. Not sure where the glitch was. Could have been in the latest update of the iTunes software. Not sure. Anyway, I'm good now.

what does it mean when you get this message on the Iphone? "online maps consume data traffic"
That means that if you use online maps, it will consume data. If you're on WiFi, no worries. If you are on cellular data, then it will eat into your cellular data plan.
