My iPhone 4 rings for a text message but theres no message????
just as subject says, ill be watching tv or whatever and my phone goes off with the classic text message tone, i check my phone and theres no message. did this 4 times during the night and just randomly does it, my brother had this problem straight out of the box when he got it, and now since i did the new 4.0.1 update its been doing this. has anyone had this problem?
my messages are fine and have context. these have the same tone as a text message and when they come the phone doesnt even light up, it stays as a black screen. realy weird, and i have unlimited messaging, since the iphone 3g 2 years ago with the same number just a new phone.

Some of my sounds do not work. I have the classic bell sound for my text messages but when someone sends me a text message it doesn't make a noise anymore. Does anyone have any ideas on what's wrong? It seems that it stopped working ever since I upgraded to the latest iOS system
Hey Grose1946,
Thanks for the question. I understand that you are experiencing issues with sound on your iPhone 5c. The following resource may provide a solution:

When texting with other iphone users, the text used to be in a blue bubble. Now it's green. What happened? Am I being charged for these text messages now? I'm with Verizon if that matters.
Thanks for the help, Allan Sampson.
I updated itunes, shut the phone off and on, it still didn't give me blue bubbles. Kept following the suggestions on the page ... I didn't know there was an IMessaging switch, but, shoot, it was OFF. Anyway, I toggled it on and now the text bubbles are blue again. -
Is it possible for sms text messages to be forwarded from one iPhone to another
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. -

How do I make phone vibrate longer for a text message?
I have an iphone 4s and I am wondering how I can set the vibrate longer for a text message. I have it turned on. I have set the vibrate to "Rapid".
I vibrates long for a phone call, but I want it to vibrate longer than a short burst, which is repeated later, on a text message.
Can anyone help?You can't.

Is there any way to change the default font for outgoing text-messages, in "Messages"?
I can change it for one conversation, but then it resets to the default, tiny font.
The preferences menu only lets me change the conversation font.
(OSX 10.10)Hi,
As you may remember there used to be a Messages pane to the Preferences where the Font and colour of the Balloons or background and the Font text colour could be changed.
And there was a Format Menu for character, word and Sentence changes in the current IM or iMessage.
Those have gone in Yosemite's version of Messages (Despite it retaining the designation of Messages 8 the same as Mavericks' version).
All that can be done now is set the size of the font and this has been moved to the General Section of the Preferences.
The Yosemite version has also been fixed to using the Balloons style of send and receiving any type of messages as well.
Changing the Font would involved editing the Balloon.transcript file.

Is there a way to set up unique alerts for unique text messages?
I have a need to be able to identify text messages from a specific sender. I currently can only find one message alert sound for all messages and want to be able to give certain senders a unique sound. Is this possible on the IPhone?
.. go into "Contacts" on your iPhone.. select a contact.. then scroll down and select the ringtone for either text messages and/or phone calls.

I'm sending an iMessage from my iPhone to another iPhone but the recipient phone does not receive message because not on wifi. Why does recipient iPhone not automatically receive in text messaging?
Wi-Fi is not required for iMessage. Internet access is required for iMessage which includes when the iPhone is connected to the cellular network.
If an iMessage cannot be sent, it will fail to send and you will be prompted to send as an SMS if text only. -
App for separate text messages with one phone number
Is there an app for iphone that would enable incoming text messages from specific numbers to be diverted to a separate app than the text message app?
In other words, like a separate inbox that could be kept "hidden" on one's phone but with one number.
Or instead of having the text message on the phone, a website where messages could be viewed from the phone on line?No app that I know of, however text message is a carrier feature - contact your cell phone provider.
