IPhone 4s text conversation requires backing out before new messages appear.

Really strange question here... but I've got a new 4s (just purchased today)... and here is what happens:
I'm in a texting conversation with a friend. I don't leave the conversation screen at all (so my last message sent is still on the screen). I can see the person typing their reply (in iMessage). My phone will then play the new text sound/vibrate... but the message doesn't show up in the conversation screen. For me to see the new message... I have to back out of the conversation and go into messages... where the "new message" blue bubble will show up.
What I'm wondering is... why in the world does that new message not simply show up in the conversation screen? Why do I have to back out completely to see new messages?
Any help would be VERY much appreciated. I've tried looking in the Message settings, but with no luck.
Thanks!

Just to clarify, since restoring the phone the message issue seems to be resolved, however I would like to find out why it's respringing and why the issue with the messages was occuring. It's starting to get annoying to have a phone that resets all the time and I really don't want a device that I have to restore every week or so.

  • HT201320 When I access my email from the iPhone, hit "inbox", the new messages appear briefly, but then just evaporate.  I can't find them anywhere - not in inbox, not in junk, trash, saved - nowhere.  Can anyone tell me what is happening?

    When I access my email from the iPhone, new messages appear only briefly and then immediately disappear, before I do anything.  Only old messages that were already in my inbox are visible.  I can't find the new messages anywhere -- they have not moved to Saved, Junk, Trash, anything.  IT is like the iPhone just ate them.  Can anyone tell me what I am doing wrong?

    If you have a POP3 account this means that another "client" email program has retrieved the messages and deleted the messages from the server. You need to change the server settings on that device to leave the messages on the server.
    If you have an IMAP or MS Exchange account this means that someone read the messages on another device and either deleted them or moved them to another folder. Or there is an automated script that moved them to another folder.

  • 46YL863: Changing TV channels - delay before new picture appears

    Hope someone can advise me please on an 'issue' that's recently arisen with my 46YL863 TV.
    I say 'issue' rather than problem in case it's something to do with my settings that is causing this.
    When I change TV channels I'm noticing that there is a several second delay from the current picture to the new one. I've narrowed it down to it only happening when switching from an HD channel to an SD one, or from an SD to an HD.
    In these circumstances the screen first goes black, then blue and after a couple more seconds the new channel picture appears.
    Changing between HD channels or SD channels and the new picture appears almost immediately.
    This has not been happening prior to the last couple of days, so either a fault has developed or I've changed a setting somehow.
    I've tried other HDMI input sockets and situation is the same.
    Any suggestions please?
    Thanks.

    Further, I've now noticed that when playing back a recording from my Humax box, before the programme plays I get a few seconds of black screen before the picture appears. That didn't happen before. Don't know therefore if the problem's with my TV or the Humax Foxsat box.

  • Officejet A909a prints from mac but when from windows "out of paper" message appears.

    I have an older 8500 which has been very loyal to me and I have looking after it well, which is now pushing 4000 pages.  However i went to print a file from my Windows 7 PC yesterday which is connected via usb, and it wouldnt print saying it was out of paper (which it wasn't) about half full . So i tried again no luck. UN-installed then reinstalled the printer still noting. went to my work laptop (windows 7) which is connected wirelessly through the network, same again "no paper" message appears. i thought this is strange turned it off back on still nothing even after disconnecting it from the mains for a few minutes, nothing the same message still appears. 
    However, my son has a mac book pro and he just printed his coursework off the printer effortlessly through my network. so i know the printer is fine especially as i have now printed self test pages off through the printer itself.
    I have no idea what to do now, as i have tried uninstalling then installing, printing via usb and network. and when i say "out of paper" i mean the printer receives the print command from my computer as it tries to feed paper a few times but cant pick it up also i have tried with various paper levels in the printer (full, half, about 20 pages, 1 single page)
    Please help.

    Hello @Dangerous97,
    I understand that when printing from your 2 Windows 7 computers you receive an 'out of paper' message after your HP Officejet Pro 8500 All-in-One Printer struggles and fails to pick up paper. However, you are able to print from a Mac computer. This is very unusual behaviour!  I would like to assist you today with resolving this issue. Also, thank you for including that you are able to print self-test pages from the printer with no issues as well.
    Generally, 'out of paper' messages are caused by a hardware issue with the printer itself. Because you are able to print standalone to your printer and from a Mac, there may be an issue with the documents that you're trying to print from your Windows 7 computer or a programming issue with your printer.
    With that being said, to start I would like you to click here to download and install the latest programming Firmware Update on your printer. Once the website opens select the Download button on the top left. Once the download is complete, please follow any onscreen instructions to send the update to your printer.
    Once the Firmware has been successfully updated, please test printing again.
    Please respond to this post with the result of the Firmware Update. Good luck!

  • HT4623 I having difficulty in updating my iphone 3GS software from version 4.1 to version 5.1. I cannot update through my iphone & through itunes. Each time I tried a message appeared saying iphone software server cannot be contacted. Please, help

    I am having difficulty in updating my iphone 3GS software from version 4.1 to version 5.1. I tried using my phone but cannot find the update software button even when I have gone through the right process by tapping SETTING, then GENERAL, yet could not find Update Software button. I mean the update Software button is not seen there.
    I tried using itunes, yet no way. Each time I connect my iphone to my laptop itunes software comes up automatically and alerts me that a newer version of software for my iphone is available, It usually gives me the option of Download & Install or Download Only. Whichever of the option I click a message will always appear telling me that the iphone update server could not be contacted, then asking me to make sure that my network settings are correct and active or try again latter. Sometimes, when click on the Update button on my itune software. It will display an error has occured.
    I have even tried to Restore iphone from itunes, yet the problem  keep repeating itself.
    Can anyone help me?

    Dear Tim,
    I saw your message. Below are the problems:
    Whenever I connect my iphone 3GS to my PC through a USB. My itunes software comes up automatically.
    1. After that a message appears from the itunes that states that 'itunes could not connect to the itunes store, an unknown error cccured (306).
    2. After the above, an alert message comes up which states that A new iphone software version 5.1 is availlable for my iphone. It then states would you like to download it and update your iphone now? With the options buttons as Cancel or Download and Update or Download Only. Whenever I clicked on Download and Update or Download Only, the next message that comes up is that The iphone Software Update Server Could not be Contacted and suggest make sure your network setting are correct and active or try again later.
    The above is the challenges I am facing now.

  • Trying to update my Iphone 4 on Itunes on Windows XP but a message appears that says "unable to update IPhone. Please check network settings/config., etc...or try again later". Please help

    Need to update my IPhone 4 and connected to the itunes on windows XP. I clicked on update and waited. A message appears that says," Cannot update etc. Please check your network settings/config., etc... or try again later" and it's been happening for a while. Please help.

    Close your iTunes,
    Go to command Prompt -
    (Win 7/Vista) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES, right mouse click "Command Prompt", choose "Run as Administrator".
    (Win XP SP2 & above) - START/ALL PROGRAMS/ACCESSORIES/Command Prompt
    In the "Command Prompt" screen, type in
    netsh winsock reset
    Hit "ENTER" key
    Restart your computer.
    If you do get a prompt after restart windows to remap LSP, just click NO.
    Now launch your iTunes and see if it is working now.
    If you are still having these type of problems after trying the winsock reset, refer to this article to identify which software in your system is inserting LSP:

  • Now apple is coming out with new iPhone 5c , now apple is coming out with new iPhone 5c

  • Can't see old iPhone 4 in iTunes to back up my new/refurbished iPhone4

    Just got a refurbished iPhone 4 to replace my old iPhone 4 (which I synced to my mac earlier today). Now I want to restore my refurbished iPhone 4 from bacj up of my old iPhone 4 but don't see it in my iTunes. Any solutions? My itunes/iOS software is up to date

    Just to confirm:
    When you go to iTunes --> Preferences --> Devices, do you see the old iPhone 4 backup there?  I think you're saying it is not there.
    If that's true, had you been backing up your old iPhone 4 to iCloud?  If so, you will have to restore from there.  You would reset your refurbished iPhone to erase its settings and information, then sign into iCloud and choose Restore from a Backup in the Setup Assistant.

  • Hi, I bought iPhone 5s about six month back and lost new , Unboxed. Is possible to trace in UK  by Imei number

    Lost my new, unboxed iphone bought from USA. is it possible to track it in UK. Phone is unused, seal pack. Never connected to iTunes as never removed from box.

    The only way for you to track it would be using Find my iPhone, which you never set up on the device. The carriers can technically locate any device connected to the cellular network and will be happy to do so when presented with a court order. I can pretty much guarantee that's not going to happen unless you have proof that the phone is now in the hands of a terrorist.
