Is it possible to sync text messages between 2 iPhones

OK this is a long shot but I figure if you guys cant help then no one can.
Basically i have 2 iPhones, an iPhone 5s and an iPhone 6. Im a bit fussy and can't decide which i prefer to use so i sometimes swap my SIM card from one iPhone to the other. However, by doing this i never have an 'up to date' set of text/iMessages. is there any way to have the same up to date messages on both handsets so when i swap phones i have all my messages?
Cheers

You can try this:
from iMessage enable your email to receive on both devices
For SMS enable message forwarding

    Is it possible to transfer text messages from iPhone to iPad?
    I'd like to backup my text conversations to my iPad from my iPhone 4.
    Is there a way of doing so?
    Thanks

    Not without restoring your iPad from the backup of your iPhone, which will revert all data and settings on your iPad to those contained in this backup, not just text message conversations.

  • Is it possible to sync text messages to Outlook 2007?

    Just went from the Moto q9c to the Blackberry 8130 and so far it is great.  One thing that I would like to do is sync text messages to Outlook so they are backed up as well as easily available for viewing at a later date.
    Is there any way to do this?  I am aware of being able to backup the device, and reload a previous backup but don't feel this to be very...user friendly.
    Thanks.

    Well, yes and no.
    There are a couple different ways to get your text messages off of your phone.
    The first (and free) way to get your text messages off your phone is to forward them as an e-mail to your e-mail address.  Depending on how many sms you have, this could take a while.
    The second option is to download a 3rd party application to copy the text messages over.  One is ABC Amber Blackberry. 
    Have Fun!

    Is it possible to foward text messages like call fowarding?

    You mean automatically?  I'm not aware of any carrier that offers such a service. 
    You can manually forward a text message, however.
    If you use iMessage, then any iMessages will be delivered to all devices that use the same Apple ID for iMessaging.

    Yeah, unless you want to deal with the pain of trying to get you messages to your computer, you will have to take a screenshot (by taping the home and lock button at the same time).
    If you want to print a screenshot, it will be in the photos app to print ( click the share button and click print).  If you so not have a AirPrint printer, there are third-party apps for computers like fingerprint (look it up) that can make a fake AirPrint printer.
    I want to add something more.
    In most cases, you would need to use a paid third party tool to export and then print your iPhone text messages on your computer. If you have a low amount of messages you want to print you can also take prints creens of each message, then transfer the photos to your computer and print from there.

  • Are you able to view contents of text messages between your phone and a particular phone number

    I am trying to figure out if you are able to get or view the contents of text messages between my phone and a particular phone number....aka, what we talked about. Is there any way I can do that? Any input would be helpful!!!

    Yes, look on the phone???
    I suppose you are someone of who deletes your messages on a regular basis without backing them up in any fashion which leaves you NO other way to view these messages. For future reference, if you feel you may need to review messages in the future, DON'T DELETE THEM.

    Could someone please tell me if it is possible to retrieve text messages that I have permanently deleted?

    SMS's are included in the iPhone backup, thus restoring from backup will restore your SMS's, assuming you backed up your phone with the SMS's in question still on your phone. If not part of your iPhone backup, they are gone.

    Hi I'm looking for a bit of help please? Is it possible for sms text messages to be forwarded from one iPhone to another without the use of such app as mysms or google voice as neither of these seem to work. Apple sugested that my network provider can usually assist in such maters with a few simple setting there end. Does anyone have previous experience in these matters. Thanks Matt.

    Do you mean forward them automatically?
    As you can manually forward any SMS or iMessage to any number you want directly from the iOS Messages app.

  • LG Revolution not receiving text messages from iphone user

    I am not receiving text messages from iphone user, sporatically.  The messages are showing as reveived on Verizon website in usage detail, but not being received on my phone.

        This issue needs fixed asap! I have a few suggestions that should help you get this resolved. If they are showing up in the usage details, that means they are hitting the Verizon network, but for some reason they are not showing up on the phone.   I recommend clearing the cache from your messaging/text messaging programs. Go to settings> applications> manage apps> all> Messaging/Text Messaging> Force Stop/Clear Cache/Clear Data. Erase the old text threads that you have saved and retry.
    If that doesn't work, please let us know the following:
    1) Do they come in delayed or not at all?
    2) Do you have any 3rd party messaging apps installed?
    3) Do they have any problems receiving messages from you?
    4) When they're sending messages, are they directly to you, or do you have this problem when the iPhone user sends to a group of people?
    Thanks for the additional info! I'm sure we can find a fix.

  • HT5824 I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off..

    I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. I have no problem sending the text messages but I'm not receivng any from iPhones at all. It has been about a week now that I'm having this problem. I've already tried fixing it myself and I also went into the sprint store, they tried everything as well. My last option was to contact Apple directly. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off so that I can receive my texts.

    If you registered your iPhone with Apple using a support profile, try going to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistering it.  Also, try changing the password associated with the Apple ID that you were using for iMessage.

  • Is it possible to Sync an iPod (or iPhone) with a Shared Library?

    I know this is a silly, basic question, but 6:30 AM is just too early for me to keep digging for the answer.
    So, I have several computers at home. ONE of them is used to purchase and store all of my iTunes music. This same computer is used to sync several iPods. The entire library on this computer is shared. Two other computers in the house are Authorized on the same account and regularly play music stored on the "first" computer.
    So here's the rub.
    My duaghter just got a new iPhone. She has her own MAC. I'd like her to begin using her own computer to sync her iPod and iPhone.
    Is it possible to sync her iPod and iPhone using HER computer (that is authorized on my account) and MY shared library?

    I don't think it is possible to sync an ipod to a shared library for copyright reasons. Sharing is great and simple for accessing and listening to other computer's music over a network, but to sync your ipod - I believe can only be done from that particular itune's music library. But here's how I work around this so that I don't have to have my 90 GB Music Folder copied on multiple computers:
    Copy these files from your main computer (the one that has and controls your master itunes library) into the same location on any other computer on your network (say your daughter's computer): user/music/itunes/iTunes Music Library.xml & iTunes Library. Before copying them over to daughter's computer, remove the old files (maybe keep somewhere else just in case) and have itunes shut down. Then start up itunes on your daughter's computer and it should look identical to the main computer's itunes (and the same as the shared library). What you've esentially done is created a separate itunes library data base that can be managed on your daughter's computer but one that accesses the same actual music files that are on the main computer's Music Folder. To check go to Preferences/Advanced and you'll see that the Music Folder location is pointing to the same file as on the main computer (whose Music Folder is now being used as a sort of network music despository). You'll notice that when your daughter's computer starts itunes and plays a song, the main computer's hard drive where the Music Folder is stored will mount on her computer. So the main computer obviously has to be turned on, or more accurately, the location of the Music Folder (could be on an external hard drive) must be accessible over the network. Your duaghter can now create her own spearate playlists and sync her ipod to her own library which is accessing the same song files (Music Folder) as the main computer. And both of you can be playing from itunes at the same time independantly.
    Here's the tricky part that takes some coordintation: Since you'll both be accessing and adding to the same huge Music Folder, you'll need to coordinate with eachother if you want to be able to have each computer's itunes database "see" any music that the other person has added or purchased. For purchasing or adding music to the music folder, both of you should have in Preferences/Advanced the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" selection checked when purchasing music or adding music via burning. If your daughter, for example, buys an album and has this preference selected, then it will go to the Music Folder and she will have access to it. But the other computer doesn't know that this was added to the music folder and it won't show up in that computer's itunes. For itunes to knwo a song is in it's Music Library it has to add it to it. SO, from this other computer, go to File/Add to Library and navigate to the location within the Music Folder and then select the newly purchased album and it will now show up in this itunes as well - BUT before you do this you should UNcheck the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" preference so that the album is not duplicated in the Music Folder. Then if this computer wants to purchase an album, you need to have this checked again. Basically if your doing the original adding you have to have the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" checked. If your simply letting your itunes know that something was added then have the "copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to Library" unchecked before you add it to your library. And if someone creates a playlist that the other wants, you can still share eachother's libraries (even though your accessing the same Music Folder) or even export the playlist and import it into the other computer.
    Sounds tricky but it's actually pretty easy and allows each person to sort of control his/her itunes and sync their own ipods/iphones all from the same Music Folder.
