IPhone keeps sending the same text message multiple times in a row.

My iphone (4s) keeps sending people the same text message multiple times (2-4) a few seconds inbetween.  Sometimes it will tell me that there the message failed, but they still recieve it multiple times.  I've already tried deleting the message tread and reset network settings.  Nobody who has an iphone has said anything to me about it yet, only people with android.  

It's a carrier issue. I have AT&T and had this issue with my friend (who had an Android) and my mother (who had a feature phone). Both of them have Verizon for service and I'm thinking the issue was on Verizon's end. They both just dealt with it as we tried all sorts of things to get this sorted out (other than contacting Verizon directly) and had no luck.
They've both switched to iPhones so it's a moot point for us now, at least.

  • TS2755 keep receiving the same text message multiple times, at the same time of the night. How can I stop this?Thabnks

    Hi
    I keep on receiving the same text message multiple times and at around the same time each night. Any idea how I can stop this happening? The text messages are originating from to separate Saudi Arabian mobile numbers. Both these people are listed in my contacts so do you think if I delete their names it might stop the texts coming htrough each night?
    Cheers

    Deleting the people from your contacts will not stop the messages. Have you tried talking to the people and finding out if they're sending you messages? You could try contacting your carrier and finding out what blocking services they offer. However, theat would block all messages from those people.

  • I Keep Receiving The Same Text Messages Multiple Times

    Every single time someone texts me, it doesn't matter who, I will receive the same message from them multiple times. At first I thought it was just them resending their message but I asked and they said no. After a few days it started happening with all my contacts that I text. Sometimes it's every other text message and sometimes it only happens a couple of times but it's extremely annoying. It got so bad that I had to bump up my plan to Unlimited Messaging just so that I wouldn't go over my limit because I think that it's counting the multiple messages! Also, I've tried updating my phone and that didn't work.
    Does anyone have any tips or solutions to this problem? Any help would be greatly appreciated!! Thanks.

        Hi cbf10,
    I am sorry to learn of the erratic duplicate messages you are receiving from several contacts. Let's narrow the potential issues that may be causing this behavior. Are you using a 3rd party application to send/receive text messages (i.e. Handcent, Go SMS, etc...)? Have you altered the operating system software in any way? What is your software version, baseband, kernel and built number?
    Clearing messaging data/cache as applicable may resolve the issue: Menu>Settings>Applications>ManageApplications>All>Messaging>Clear Data/Cache. Try it and keep us posted.

  • Receiving the same text message multiple times when person only sent it once. How can I make it stop?s from

    I received the same message multiple times and the person that sends it only did it once. Also, I have trouble getting texts from non iPhone using friends.

    It's actually probably a carrier (or hardware) issue on the sender's end. Tell the sender to pull the battery from their phone (or reset it if the battery is non-removable). I've seen this issue with certain HTC phones (HTC did release an update which solved the issue on my Thunderbolt). As far as I knew, I only sent the message once. However, it would show up multiple times on the receiver's phone. Pulling my battery would solve the problem for a while. It did take the software update to stop it permanently.

  • Sending the same email message several times to contacts.  Turned off iCloud, but still sending message.

    Sending the same email message several times to contacts.  Turned off iCloud, but still sending message. 
    A user had synced all of his contacts from his computer and iPhone to his iCloud.  Today, his iCloud sent out the same message 20 times to all recipients.  We were able to transfer all calendar items and contacts back to his pc and then disable iCloud.  However, it still sent out the messages.  Any ideas?

  • Droid X - Receiving same Txt message multiple times, repeatedly

    After an upgrade back in September/October...  I started receiving the same text message multiple times.  It doesn't happen every time.  For example, my Husband responds with "OK" and I receive the same message 5 times over a period of 4-5 hours.

  • Can I get the same text messages on both my iPhone and my iMac

    can I get the same text messages on both my iPhone and my iMac
    It seems that my Mac is getting them and they dont show up on my iphone.

    Hi julian KAYE!
    You will want to make sure that both your computer and phone have all options checked in the “Start new conversations from” section in your Messages settings:
    iOS: Using Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3529
    You can change the address that new iMessage conversations are started with in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Start new conversations from. Note that this setting applies only to new conversations. If you would like to change the address from which messages are sent, first change this setting, and then delete the existing conversation and start a new one.

  • HT201328 after unlocking from ATT and resetting iphone 3gs I keep getting the same error message "could not activate phone" neither Apple Store Tech or ATT were able to fix this . Any ideas?? TKS Sandro

    after unlocking over the phone from ATT and resetting iphone 3gs I keep getting the same error message "could not activate phone" neither Apple Store Tech or ATT were able to fix this .
    Itunes displays a message saying "there is no SIM installed in the phone you're trying to activate" even if there is the same SIM that was working minutes before.
    The SIM works on a different phone I tested it.
    Any ideas?? TKS Sandro

    “Could Not Activate EDGE” error message Update ...
    Well it’s going on day 6 and still sporadic to no EDGE on my iPhone. At one time, it was thought to be a defective iPhone – since my partner’s iPhone works just fine.
    After over three hours on the land line with AT&T and Apple, I was sent to the local Apple store for a replacement. Of course, as soon as I walked into the Apple store my iPhone worked just fine. ;-( The local store replaced my iPhone and suggested I go home and activate the phone as a NEW iPhone, that way if there was a bug in my data it would not carry over to the new phone. Did that and well… still sporadic to no EDGE. By the way, I have the Big White “E” to the right of the 5 bars and AT&T .
    AT&T said last week they has “Software” issues in my area, but the CSR I talked to did not know what the issues were or if they were the cause of my problems. He did say they would call me back today to see how my iPhone was doing, but alas, no call back.
    When I’m next to my partner, trying to access the same feature, his iPhone is just so fast. Mine hangs up, draws out and finally I get the error message, “Could Not Activate EDGE”. I am updated to version “1.1.4(4A102)”. New (refurbished) iPhone direct from Apple.
    I remember reading a while back about some problems others had when they upgraded to from 1.1.3 to 1.1.4. I never had those problems, but it sure looks like they may have started. Does anyone remember what the problems with 1.1.4 were, what was done if anything to correct them, and best of all any suggestions?
    By the way, this is Seattle, not some small – out of the way place where connection and signal strength is expected to be second rate. Also, I had full function of my iPhone from the day I bought it in June 2007, all the way up to Thursday March 20, at 2120.
    Thanks

    You have a number of things that will make this not work.
    Your mailto link is not the way to go, take a look at this and it should get you on the right path.
    http://www.paulgdesigns.com/learncontactform.php
    On your action page, you can have it give the thank you message that you want.  Having a seperate page saying they forgot to do something complicates matters more than you might wish at this point, and usually irritates people. however if you decide you want to go that way, look up "sticky forms".  What this does is re-populate the fields when they have to go back to correct.
    A better way would be to validate the information, you can use Spry if you want which is built into dreamweaver.
    You also have in your html form this
    enctype="multipart/form-data"
    That is used for sending files, and since you are not, the form would not work, so you want to remove it.
    Hopefully that will give you a starting point.

  • My mac mail on just keeps sending the same messages even after deleted and shows thousands of emails supposed to be coming in

    My mac mail on just keeps sending the same messages even after deleted and shows thousands of emails supposed to be coming in

    If you have a backup, you can restore the e-mails. Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J.  When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Library/Mail/V2.
