Is it possible to show my contacts pictures when they text/sms?

Hi,
This could be one of those questions for things that only seem to happen on the TV. But is is possible to have a contact picture appear when I receive a sms from a contact who is already stored in my phone. I know you can do this when a call is received, but wondered if it can be done when they text.
Cheers 

Sorry, no. You can suggest Apple add that feature here:

  • After downloading iOS 7 on the 4s when I iMessage people my Apple ID comes up instead of my contact and when they text my contact it comes to my phone as a text message???( my data is on)) plzzzzz helpppp

    Plzzz help me fix this!!!

    Hey Dyjos,
    Thanks for the question. It sounds like your phone number may not be checked in Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. This usually occurs when the phone number is waiting to be activated with iMessage. It should take no longer than 24 hours, and may resolve on its own.
    However, if you continue to have issues, the following article usually provides a resolution:

  • Contact Picture when phone is ringing.

    I have a question I need assistance with.  My iPhone when receiving calls are only showing my contact pictures in thumbprint and not in full size.  How can I can that?

    This is a change that came about with iOS 7.1. There is no change that can be done. You may provide feedback to Apple at www.apple.com/feedback and click on the appropriate link.

  • Contact picture when dialing

    When dialing a number from my "contacts" the picture shows up underneath the overlay. Everyone else's phones I have seen (including the ones in the Apple Stores) show the contact picture at the top of the screen next the name. How can I get my iPhone to do this? I have a 16GB, 3G, and 2.0.2 update. Thanks.

    You can search these discussions with the little search box to the right. I put in the search contact + picture and found your answer here: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=7487288&#7487288

  • Some of my contact names are not appearing when they text message me.  They are just showing up as their numbers. I have them saved in my phone so i am not really sure why their names aren't showing up when they message me?

    I have this identical problem.  For a while my group texts didnt show up on my ipad.  Then one day they did, maybe everyone in the group started using the same os version or something.  Ever since my first reply to the group there have been complaints of multiple threads.  I can not find a pattern for when my group text's decide they want to create a new thread. (it doesnt happen every time)  Everyone in the group has deleted the thread, we've all toggled imessage on/off etc.  There still hasn't been a solution.
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks

    This may be an error caused by the update. You can try to sync your contact information with iCloud and backup the rest of your data and then restore the device and see if it starts to work normally again.

  • HT204150 I have just set up icloud and all my contacts are duplicated from Address Book! My new iPhone is also showing duplicate contacts even though they are not duplicated in my address book on my computer. Please can you help

    I have just set up icloud and all my contacts are duplicated from Address Book! My new iPhone is also showing duplicate contacts even though they are not duplicated in my address book on my computer. Please can you help?

    Also, what are the source of your contacts? are they created on the phone, or you synced from yahoo/hotmail etc.
    If thats the case, the circular arrow wont be visible but instead show "groups"
    Contacts from different accounts are not synced to iCloud.

  • Is it possible, automatically, to create a border when a text is inserted.

    Is it possible, automatically, to create a border when a text is inserted.
    Example:
    List with subjects is:
    Name:
    address:
    etcetera...
    When the first subject (Name) is typed then a border will appear around the whole text
    Is this possible in Indesgn?
    Hans

    No. Indesign can't draw borders around text during an interaction. You can either set a border for a text frame or draw an unfilled rectangle around text, which then is an overlaying object, but this can't be automated.
    For an interactive PDF with forms, you can assign actions to a form field, but none to make a frame visible, a frame that would surround the text or show a border on one side.

  • I blocked something for pictures on Facebook and now can't see anyones pictures when they download them, how do I get them back ?

    I didn't want to see some postings, so I was told to block the pictures on the postings.....after I did that, we now cannot see anyones pictures when they download them on to facebook... it only affects us when on our desk computer not our ipod.

    If images are missing then check that you aren't blocking images from some domains.
    *Check the permissions for the domain in the current tab in "Tools > Page Info > Permissions"
    *Check that images are enabled: Tools > Options > Content: [X] Load images automatically
    *Check the exceptions in "Tools > Options > Content: Load Images > Exceptions" (search fbcdn.net)
    You can use these steps to check if images are blocked:
    * Open the web page that has the images missing in a browser tab.
    * Click the website favicon ([[Site Identity Button]]) on the left end of the location bar.
    * Click the "More Information" button to open the "Page Info" window with the Security tab selected (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
    * Go to the <i>Media</i> tab of the "Tools > Page Info" window.
    * Select the first image link and scroll down through the list with the Down arrow key.
    * If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "<i>Block Images from...</i>" then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.

  • I have selected a specific text tone for a certain contact but I only receive default tone when they text me. Why?

  • I added 3 contacts and saved on my iphone 5, but do not appear on my list of contacts. the names appear when they text or call me. I have to go search for their messages when i need to call them

    i added 3 contacts and saved on my iphone 5, but do not appear on my list of contacts. the names appear when they text or call me. I have to go search for their messages when i need to call them?

    Try to restore your iphone via iTunes or update to ios6.1.2.
    If itunes gives an error with restoring (DFU/Recovery or just normal)
    try this:
    open your computer and search on windows; C://windows/system32/drivers/etc/hosts
    open up the hosts file in note pad you will see IP adresses and more add another line and put in this:
    #74.208.10.249 gs.apple.com
    this is a by-pass to the cydia/saurik restore server, it has nothing to do with jailbreaking over voiding apple's warranty
    let me know if succeeded!

  • Lenovo Vibe X2 keeps hanging when trying to pullup the contacts or when opening the SMS function !

    Have been using the Vibe X2 since 2 months. Phone keeps hanging when trying to pullup the contacts or when opening the SMS function. Terribly dissatisfied with the functioning. 
    *Moderator note:Message edited for a better understanding of the problem/ compliance with the Lenovo Community Participation Rules 

    Solved, I found the option there:
    Contacts - local menu - More features and settings - More display options - Matching digits of number - 7 digits
    Works great now,

  • Contact pictures when receiving phone calls

    I have some contacts which have pictures directly taken with my iPhone and naturally they display full screen when receiving a call. Other contacts however have imported pictures which display as thumbnails when I receive a call.
    Is there a way to either have them all display as thumbnails (other than using pictures not takes with the iPhone)?
    Thanks for any input on this.

    According to wjosten in this thread: http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2502247
    Contact pictures assigned on your computer & then synced to your phone will appear as thumbnails, while contact pictures assigned directly on your phone will appear full size.
    This was in 3.1.3, but it should be similar in 4.0, although I haven't had a chance to test it yet.
    Thanks, yes, that is still the case.
    What I am trying to accomplish is, that ALL pictures show up as thumbnail. So, with all your replies it seems like the only way to do this would be to save the picture on the PC and then re-sync them.

  • Is it possible to show clips as Red when offline?

    Does anyone know if it is possible to show clips in the timeline as Red when they are offline? Much like the way Avid does.
    I know that in the browser it marks the clips as being offline, but In a large complicated project with lots of Bins it's not practical to go through and look at every clip. And I find the online green and offline grayed out kind of green as difficult to notice at a glance on the timeline.
    Is there a way to change it or have I just got to get used to it?

    This may or may not help, depending on what you are wanting. Find the offline clip(s) in your Browser, select it/them, then press OptionCommand3 (on the top row of numbers). Assuming you have not changed your key combinations, this will change the offline clip names to red in your sequence. You can choose between 2-6 for different colors. The clips will still be white, but have the text highlighted in your chosen color.
