IPhone 6 Plus getting "movie" copy of audio messages

Since updating to iOS 8.2, my phone has been getting regular audio messages, but sometimes a copy will show up a few minutes later as a Quicktime movie. I've tried resetting the phone, but it still happens. I don't want to delete the text thread because I like to keep my texts - don't ask why, I just can never bring myself to delete long threads. This particular thread has been going for about two years (the longest thread I have goes back to 2011). Is anyone experiencing something similar? I've had this issue in the past, but a reset of the phone usually fixed it.

Probably apps running in the background are causing this, sometimes Mail get's stuck connecting to the mail server, or some social media app like Facebook can also be a reason for prolonged background activity.
Try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again. You will not lose any data by resetting, but it can cure some glitches.
If this does not help, setting it up as new device would be the next step:

    For what silly reason would any intelligent person believe that changing an Apple ID password would have any affect on iMessage?
    From the link provided:
    If you can't access your iPhone, you no longer have it, or you can't deactivate iMessage after you try the above steps, please contact Apple Support.

  • Is there any way to get rid of the audio message that I have unlimited minutes when I make a call? I want that 10 seconds of my life back :)

    When I make a call I get an audio message that I have unlimited minutes and then dial the number. Is there any way to get rid of that message? Because I really want to get back those 10 seconds back, Ha, Ha, not!

    Whoever thought this new search box GUI was a good idea was mistaken IMHO.
    I've used the method shown above to return it to the old constant icon/text display with instantly available drop down of my alternative chosen search engines. All back to how it was in the previous version. Yay!
    Displaying the chosen default search engine icon/text in the search box just seems a better and more sensible GUI feature to me than needing to hover over the box to show the same information (minus icon) . As for having to start entering search terms before the other search engine options become available - that is just plain ill conceived design.
    The old design is more user friendly and should be the default setting but if some users want the new GUI for the search box why not include that under Tools > Options?

  • Downloaded IOS7 on iPhone 4, have sprint as carrier, now when another Sprint phone sends a text to my sons iPhone, Im getting a copy of the texts being sent to him.  Plus when I send a text, it shows as coming from my sons.  What's up, how can I fix this?

    I have downloaded ios7 on iphone 4s, Sprint is my carrier.  When I send a text to anohter iphone ALSO using sprint, it shows as coming from my sons phone.  When he gets a message from another iphone using sprint, I get copies of his messages.  Go figure.  It seems to be only other IPhones and Sprint users.  Hasnt' happend with android phones texting him, or him texting to androids or carriers that are not sprint.

    The fact that the problem only occurs when iphones are texting you leads me to think that iMessage may be the culprit. The fact that it is only iphones using SPRINT however is weird. Try turning imessage off on both yours and your sons phones to see if the problem persists. If it does, it may be a carrier problem.

  • After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books.  Also I can't edit and copy multiple text messages.

    After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books.  Also I can no longer edit a and copy multiple text messages like before. Is there a way to do these things I am missing?

    Not only can i not see the individual chaptes -- apparently like you and everyone else suffering through the "improved" iOS7 -- when my audiobook repeats a "file" within  chapter, which it sometimes does, I cannot get "inside" the chapter and move forward to where I'm supposed to be.
    Whatever happened to "if it ain broke.......???

  • Will I be able to copy my text messages from my iphone 4 to my iphone 5 when I get it?

    hey everyone, I was wondering if there is any way I will be bale to copy my text messages from my iphone 4 to my iphone 5 when I finally get it. The main reason is that I have a text message conversation on my phone with a very dear friend of mine who very recently committed suicide and I really don't want to lose that conversation. can anyone guide me in the right direction? Thanks

    I believe this is possible if you backup with iTunes.  I know that if you perform the upgrade successfully on the same device, the text messages do transfer.  I would enable iCloud and let it backup everything (I don't really see a message backup specifically).  Then I would backup with iTunes just in case iCloud didn't backup your text messages.

  • Ios 8 iphone can not play audio message in imessage

    Seems I can send sound clips from my iPhone 5, but when someone sends me one I get a box with a ? in it and can not play it even though it says I have received an audio message. If I am at the lock screen I can hit play but then it appears to freeze.
    Any ideas? Below is what I see in my messages.. they should be audio messages.

    Just downloaded it about an hour ago and the same thing happened to me. I guess I should just wait it out then?

  • I Just updated my iPhone 4 tp 7.1 oS. I am unable to connet to any network. I keep getting the "searching" Np Service" messages on the top let corner of the screen. I also get a notice that say " "unable to load network list. I need help...

    I Just updated my iPhone 4 to 7.1 oS. I am unable to connet to any network. I keep getting the "searching" No Service" messages on the top let corner of the screen. I also get a notice that says " "Unable to load network list. I need help... How can one resolve this issue?

    No it's not stealing. They have an allowance that you can share with so many computers/devices. You'll have to authorize her computer to play/use anything bought on your acct. You can do this under the Store menu at top when iTunes is open on her computer.
    As far as getting it all on her computer....I think but I am not sure (because I don't use the feature) but I think if you turn on Home Sharing in iTunes it may copy the music to her computer. I don't know maybe it just streams it. If nothing else you can sign into your acct on her computer and download it all to her computer from the cloud. Not sure exactly how to go about that, I haven't had to do that yet. I wonder if once you authorize her computer and then set it up for automatic downloads (under Edit>Preferences>Store) if everything would download. Sorry I'm not much help on that.

  • IPhone user getting BB network sync messages - wants them to stop

    Hello everyone.  Just signed up here, happy user of Blackberry Tour 9630 with Bell Mobility in Montreal, Quebec, Canada for nearly two years.
    HOWEVER, my current need for assistance has absolutely NOTHING to do with my Blackberry model, my carrier, or my OS version.
    For the past 6 years, I have been providing Email gateway services with spam and malware filtering to several small corporate clients.  At the end of March 2011, one user (also a high-level company admin at one of my client domains) has begun receiving messages from a range of network addresses, as follows:
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]

    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    [email protected]
    All those messages have a subject similar to this:
    RIM_bca28a80-e9c0-11d1-87fe-00600811c6a2
    The message body begins with "This message is used to carry data between the BlackBerry handheld and an associated server. Please do not delete, move or respond to this message - it will be processed by the server."
    The problem is that this person is using an iPhone, not a BB, and he is receiving these messages both on his iPhone and on his Windows desktop (in Office Outlook).
    He also tells me he never had a Blackberry, and that he DID NOT ask for these messages to be sent to him.  For sure, he might very well have ACTUALLY done something that caused this, but he cannot recall what it was.  One of his employees lost her Blackberry just before going on maternity leave for a year, starting in March, and he did mention doing something (vaguely remembered) related to that loss (and replacement).
    Be that as it may.  The fact is that he does not have a Blackberry, but an iPhone (and apparently NEVER had a Blackberry).  Under those circumstances, is there some way to register a request that these messages no longer be sent, by either Emailing or phoning someone at RIM (or any other way)?  So far, I am sending hundreds of these messages per week to the spam quarantine, from which they have to be purged periodically.
    By the way, I just signed up to Twitter earlier today (something which I was in no hurry to do), just so I could attempt to obtain help from the  "BlackBerryHelp" Twitter channel.  Well, I posted the following tweet 2 hours ago, and so far I have received no response:
    "@BlackBerryHelp iPhone user getting msgs from "[email protected]", wants them filtered. How do we stop them at source?"
    So much for "Official Twitter support account of Research In Motion. We’re staffed from 9-8 EST Monday -Friday and 9-6 Saturday. ".  What kind of response time should I be expecting?  Am I too impatient?
    Thanks in advance to anyone who might be able to shed some light on this problem and its solution...

    Normally that message comes about from having installed the Blackberry Desktop Software on the PC in an incorrect manner, which the link below will show how to correct it. I am guessing someone (might not have been this user, could have been his secretary or another employee who does have a BlackBerry) installed the BlackBerry Desktop Software on his PC with the "redirector" option checked, which is most normally the origin. See below.
    Article ID: KB04254 Network@etp email messages are received on the BlackBerry smartphone and email application
    Article ID: KB21849 Network@etp messages are received in the email application and on the BlackBerry smartphone
    As far as the twitter help accout, yea, I'm thinking two hours response time might be a bit high in expectations. But doesn't matter, the above links should solve the issue.
    And, aside from collecting the messages in a spam folder, you could just blacklist them on the users' email server, and they won't even reach the server.

  • How can i get a copy of my ipone messages with the number, date and time stamp?

    How can I get a copy of my iphone messages with the number it was sent from and the date and time stamp?  Needed for court purposes.

    Try the computer apps PhoneView (Mac) or TouchCopy (Mac & PC):

    You should probably consult your attorney to see if either of these will be acceptable.

  • When I sync with my iphone i get an error reporting message but the sync still works.  After trying to download 10.6.3 Mac OSX Snow Leopard, this message appears every few seconds until I quit Entourage.  How do I turn this message off?.

    Question: 
    When I sync with my iphone I get an error reporting message but the sync still works.  After trying to download 10.6.3 Mac OSX Snow Leopard, this message appears every few seconds as long as Entourage is open.  This continues until I quit Entourage.  How do I turn this message off? It interferes with any other work I am doing.   I appreciate any suggestions.

    I only have one video project that I ever published to iDisk. It didn't have any music or photo files attatched to it, just a few clips stitched together. I can play these clips right now in the Event Library (so I know the source files are on my computer), but strangely, under the Project Library, the project is not there. I'm almost certain that I didn't store the project on iDisk; I just completed the video and published it to iDisk (as a .mov file I think) for family to see. I've tried to figure out how to get iDisk to stop looking for this project to no avail.
    I don't know if others have experienced this, but if I click on any project and on the menu bar select Share --> Remove From --> Media Browser... it lists iPod, iPhone, iPad, tv, Computer and MobileMe. Why would MobileMe be an option here? This is the case for any video project I select. Didn't iLife '11 and/or OSX 10.8 remove all mention of MobileMe? I wonder if this is part of the problem too.
    Edit: I just removed every project I have from the Media Browser. Still no luck.

  • How can I simply send audio messages via text, not just to people who have iphones, even basic Nokia phones allow this function? Am I missing something here? IPHONE 6

    How do I on IPHONE 6 have audio message option not just have the option it seems for other people with Iphones. Even Nokia phones have this very BASIC function/? Also how can you BULK DELETE Emails, I get hundreds of junk ones per day, and simply want to go, Select ALL or SELECT ALL READ and then press DELETE ONCE not hundreds of times????

    No, basic Nokia phones do not, and have never had a function to easily send audio messages universally. SMS is a carrier feature and uses a very basic transfer mechanism and works only for short, 160-character messages. Through software, some phones later allowed you to type longer messages that the device then broke up seamlessly and sent as multiple SMS messages. MMS is another carrier service developed to be able to transport multimedia like audio and pictures. Again, very basic transfer and usually slow and low quality. Both of these are again, operator services. Your iPhone can send those messages to non-iPhone users using standard carrier services.
    On the other hand, your iPhone Messages app uses your iPhone data plan - not unlike your home Internet service - to transfer audio, video and images through Apple's iMessage service. Other services exist that do something similar - WhatsApp for example - which also requires both the sender and recipient to use their app for the service to work.
    As for email, Meg is correct. Your email provider is the first line of defense against spam. You should adjust your filters. That said, iOS Mail app had a delete all function, but not in places where it can do more harm than good - i.e. the Inbox. It is present only in the Junk and Trash folders where, presumably, your email provider or you have already been through some decision making process and deemed those emails acceptable to be deleted en masse.
