Load Earlier Text Messages - HELP!

I want to look at a text message I sent about 3 months ago. I know its on my iphone, but when I start to look at the earlier texts the it gets slower and slower the further back I go.
Is there a better / easier way to load ALL texts from a single person?

If you are on a Mac, get PhoneView from:
http://www.ecamm.com/
Then you can download them to your computer and go through them there. There is no way to speed things up on the phone itself without deleting some.

  • Load earlier text messages option

    Help! Previously I remember using an option at the top of my text conversation screen to "Load earlier text messages" This option now seems to have disappeared.... Any ideas?
    Thanks

    The option is there only if there are more text messages. It says "Load Earlier Messages".
    Did you restore your phone recently, maybe losing the previous messages?

    My wife is having the same problems as a reciever. She works in a school as a teaching assistant and her teacher sends messages that are mixed with previous texts from ages ago.
    Can anyone shed some light on this problem or is it only her and this poster?

  • Upgrade to smartphone early text message

    i was sent a text message from verizon about 3 weeks ago stating that I could upgrade early from my current feature phone to a new smartphone. I called into verizon and they said that the offer stands until my normal discount upgrade occurs 07/02/11. I have decided I want to upgrade to a new droid phone but I accidentaly erased the text message telling me which number to call. Does anyone have this number? I know it was an 800 number. 

    lelandliz,
    Hi there! We cannot determine this through the community forum.  Typically you are alerted via text and/or email when an early upgrade is available as a promotion. However, if you PM me your name and mobile number I can take a look into your account and see what we can do. 
    Thank you!

  • C7 - Problem with text messages - Help please!

    I have had my Nokia C7 since November and have not been able to use it! When I send a text message less than 160 characters I am charged between 2 and 3 times on my bill. The text message is being sent once and the recipient is receiving the text once. I have done everything that I have been asked by my provider from software upgrades to a brand new sim card to sending the phone off to be repaired to having a replacement but nothing works .. If I use my sim card in my old Nokia N79 then I don't have this problem. I recently tried a pay as you go sim card in the Nokia C7 and the same thing happened!
    Any suggestions please??

    Thanks for confirming .. Just so frustrating as getting no where with T Mobile. The technical person insisted that I had sent 3 text messages despite the fact that 1 was sent all because that is what was showing on his system! I had to go into the shop with a copy of my usage and the phone showing the text messages to prove only 1 text had been sent. They just don't seem to be able to resolve the issue. I just don't know what else to do. I haven't been able to use this new phone since November
    Thanks again for your reply. Much appreciated

  • Can't reply to text messages, help?

    I can receive text messages (sms) but I cant reply. It just comes up with an error and says try again, which doesn't work. Anyone know why?  Thanks.

    A lot of times this has to do with the network.
    Have you tried hard resetting the device?
    Press and hold the sleep/wake button and the home button at the same time until the apple logo appears and then let go and see if that resets things and then try it again and see if the problem presists.  If it does call apple and get tech support.

  • Have hanging program, all web sites do not load,no error message . help

    I log onto Firefox. I select a website from my bookmarks.Nothing happens. it just freezes. no website come up. there are no error messages. Nothing.
    I have no problem loading the websites on IE. All websites load on IE, no problem. Please help me restore Firefox browser. Thank you.
    This occured today about 2 hours ago. it has never happened before.

    yeah I thought that as well but my roommate has a macbook air on the same network and his works fine on the same web pages... maybe Its no problem at all. I was just curious if this is normal because when I had a PC that did this it had a trojan horse virus effecting it and ultimately caused it to crash.

  • Load earlier messages does not show

    Yesterday my option to load earlier text messages does not appear on some of my contacts. I tried turning off the phone but that did not help. Any suggestions?

    Hi,
    I would try two things.
    In Messages > Preferences > Viewing change the background colour and then the Font (you can't change the Font without changing the background (balloon) colour.
    In the Accounts part of the Preferences and in the iMessages account change the Start Conversations From to the opposite of what it is now (Either Apple ID or iPhone Number)
    If you were not already make each device the same.

  • Text message stuck on loading screen

    My Droid Incredible refuses to load my text messages. I click on someone's name to read the text and it just stays on the loading screen. I have tried taking out the battery and restarting the phone. Nothing works.

    I installed Handcent, a free app from the play store, and it was a functional text interface when the built-in app wasn't loading. It has an easy batch delete mode if you have texts you need to keep in a long thread where you don't want to delete the entire thread at once.
