Is there a way to delete and re-install the Messages app?
iMessages is not working on my original iPad. It shows contacts as not activated and messages are not delivered. I have tried all of the options detailed in other chats, but they have not worked. I am now at a point where I want to delete Messages and re-install it. Is this possible, and if so, how is it accomplished?
Thanks
Double tap the home button to bring up the Recents List
Tap and hold any icon until they wiggle
Press the red to delete the Messages app from this list.
Press the home twice button when done.
Restart the app.

Is there a way to delete and acess iPhone text messages from the computer?
I lost my iPhone and someone else has it. I would like to delete everything from it because there is no pass code on it. Is there a way to do that online?
Hi kennedysekanina,
You can wipe your phone if you had Find My iPhone enabled on it, and if it is still online. You would do this through your iCloud account by logging onto it at iCloud.com
Cheers,

I recently upgraded to an iPhone 5 and I have this synced with my previous iCloud account. My problem is my old iPhone 4 is taking up 2.5 GB of space in the cloud. Is there a way to delete this iphone from the icloud so I can free up space as it is not needed anymore?
Welcome to the Apple Community.
Assuming you have finished with your old backup.....
You can see what your iCloud storage is used for and delete any unwanted content at settings > iCloud > backup & storage > manage...... -
Is there a way to delete multiple pictures at the same time from the iphone4s?
Is there a way to deleter multiple pictures at the same time, from my iphone4s? I know how to delete one at a time. Thanks
Open your Photos App > Camera Roll > At the top right corner you will see a rectangle with a right arrow, select that. Now you can select as many photos as you want and you can hit the red Delete button on the bottom right.

Apparently you can have 5 computers registered for iTunes. I have 3 active computers but I guess I have other computers that are still activated that I no longer use and I no longer have as they crashed. Is there a way to delete or see what the other computers are so that I can go in and delete them? I've tried to email Apple directly but apparently I need my hardware # and obviously I do not have that # since I don't have the equipment any longer. Any help is greatly appreicated. I am trying to add another computer and it won't allow me to as they say I'm at my limit. Please help!
Sure.
Just open up iTunes on your computer -> Go to the iTunes Store -> Click your e- maill address (top right corner of the window) -> Type in your password for your Apple ID -> Under Computer Authorisations (underneath your Apple ID account balance and address) -> Press 'Deauthorise All'
-> This will deauthorise all computers and devices from your iTunes account -> you then need to re- authorise any computers/ devices you would like to use with your Apple ID for iTunes content -> to do this, select the Store tab along the menu at the top (where 'File', 'Edit', 'View' etc..... are) -> Then click 'Authorise this Computer' -> Type in your Apple ID -> Voila!
For any iOS devices (non- computers) you wish to re- authorise, these will automatically do so when you go to play iTunes content, download an app or anything like that on those devices!
Hope this helps! -

I add all photos taken on camera roll to individual albums. However, once a photo is deleted from camera roll, it's also deleted from the albums where it also resides. Is there a way to delete or clear out the camera roll but keep them in albums?

I have an Iphone 4, I have music files that appear on my phone that I want to delete, when I link it to my computer the songs on the phone will not appear in Itunes so I can delete them, Is there any way to delete these song off the phone without going through Itunes?
Nope, it either needs to be plugged in or turned on with the power button.
A replacement iPhone 4 is $149, but at least the whole phone is replaced. -
Is there a way to delete some numbers from the "my recents" without deleting all of them?
Is there some way to delete only some of the list of "My Recents" while retaining some of them? It seems that to delete some all have to be deleted.
That tip worked perfectly. It's strange that Apple phone help, even when I was transferred to "the highest level of help", said it could not be done, that it was either all or nothing when it comes to deleting "My Recents" call history. What kind of bozos do they have working there? If Jobs was still alive, he would fire those clowns who claim to be the highest level of help when they don't even know enough about their product to give good technical advice. Thanks again.

Is there a way of using remoteupdatemanager to install the Digital Publishing suite to Adobe inDesign, if not how do I install it to Macs running Adobe CC 2014? I need to do this remotely and silently using ARD to over 100 Macs.
It's alo what mine looks like as well because I've not added anything At first I didn't know and no one would tell me. Then I just go used Tools menu. It far more complex to learn if you go to it Cold Turkey from using Menu bars which are vastly easier. It’s a shock to your system. But you learn to use tools menu evn though it takes far more time. You waste time clicking heading to find sub topics and sometimes items that should be grouped together are spread all over. But, Hey Change is supposed to be good whether we want it or not.

Is there a way to delete individual contacts from the mail icon that i've replied to on itouch 4th
I've replied to several emails by way of my itouch 4th. Now I don't need those particular contacts anymore. They don't show up in my yahoo mail which is what I've been using. They are still in my contacts when I hit the write button on my touch. Is there a way of deleting those individuals I replied to? I don't want to have to restore the touch. It's got too much stuff on it, I like. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
The only way is to restore the iPod to factory defaults/new iPod. I know that is not a desirable solution..

How to Delete duplicate contacts in the messaging app?
I set up a new email account, and was trying to send my contacts to the new account. In doing so I did not get the contacts to sync with the new account, but they did duplicate in my contacts app and my messaging contacts app. I can not find a means to delete the duplicate contacts in the messaging app. I stopped by Verizon at Best Buy, and they told me that there is no way to delete the contacts once they are in the messaging app. I can't believe that.
There must be a way to remove the contacts from the messaging app. Please help.Hi Tidbits,
I ended up going to Best Buy, where I got my LG G3 Verizon phone. The Tech tried everything to correct the duplication, but could not find how to do it. He deleted everything, and went back to factory settings. Darn if the duplicates didn't come back.
He went to my Verizon account, and went to the Verizon Cloud. Clicked on Contacts, and there were all the duplicate contacts. He deleted the duplications, leaving the original for each contact. BINGO the problem was solved.
I am using the Standard Messaging instead of Verizon messaging Plus. The Tech said that if I had been using Using Verizon Messaging Plus this may not of happened. I just down want the added cost of Messaging Plus.
Thanks for the response.
