New text message notification will not go away, but there are no new text messages

I've tried turning the phone off and on again about a million times. I've tried deleting the text message thread that it should have been talking about. I've restored my settings, I've erased the entire phone and then restored from itunes... and IT'S STILL THERE. Stupid little red "1" in the text message icon. When I click on messages, it just opens to the screen showing all your threads. I've obviously checked all, and there are no unread messages...and even if there was 1 unread message like it's saying, when I click on messages it should open up directly to it, but it doesn't, because there isn't one.
Don't know what else to try. Anyone have any suggestions or heard of this before? Thank you so much, I appreciate all help!

Try stopping and restarting the Messages app: double tap the home button to bring up the recently used apps list at the bottom, locate the Messages app icon (swiping if necessary), press and hold it until it jiggles, tap the red minus sign.  Open and close messages again and see if that clears it.  If not, stop it again followed by resetting your phone: hold on/off and home buttons simultaneoulsy for 10-15 seconds until you see the Apple logo (ignore the off slider that appears first), release and wait for the phone to restart.

    I had this same problem with my phone. I reset it, no messages appearred unread! Eventually I "dragged down" my notification centre at the top of your screen, and it showed my "unread" message! I clicked it and my problem was solved! Hope this works for you!

  • My iTouch will not show movies, but they are showing on my iTunes.  When I try and play them through my iTunes it freezes on me and does not work.

    My iTouch will not show movies, but they are showing on my iTunes.  When I try and play them through my iTunes it freezes on me and does not work.  This problem only occurs whenever I am using my netbook.  It doesn't happen when I use a different computer.  I tried uninstalling and reinstalling itunes and am not sure what else to do from here. 

    You may have transferred all your songs, but your iPad is seeing the library as a different entity.
    The following article(s) may help you.

    I tried to change the memory and now my Imac will not power on. and there are no beeps. what did I do wrong?

    Don't know.  Could be any number of reasons.  Re-read the how to install RAM manual again for your model iMac.  Double & triple check to make sure you purchased the right RAM chips.   Make sure they are seated properly.  If you didn't hear a snap when seated, the RAM is not properly seated.

  • Xcode update notification will not go away.

    I updated Xcode to 4.2. It's installed and it continues to show up as an available update in the App Store app. Any assistance in a remedy would be appreciated.

    To get rid of this annoying problem (really, I don't think Steve would have approved) you need to go to the updates section in the App Store. The "Details" button on the notification should take you there but if not just open the App Store via the Apple menu item and click the "Updates" icon. When you get there you should be looking at the Yosemite banner ad.  Control click anywhere in the Yosemite banner ad. This will make a new button titled "Hide Update" appear just to the left of the "Download" button. Click the "Hide Update" button and your problem is solved.

  • Iphone will not send sms, but there is no error message

    Hi!
    I sent a sms to a friend of mine two days ago, but I got no response.
    I contacted NetCom, but the message had not gone out to their net. It had never "left" the phone.
    There is no error message on the phone.
    Does anyone know what I need to do to get this message sent?

    I don't know what SMS provision means..
    There is no exclamation mark next to the message, so it seems that the phone thinks it has sent the message. But it has not arrived NetCom's mobile network to be sent to receiver... I don't understand why.

    You can force quit by holding the power button down for extended period.
    During boot up hold down the Option key and choose your Macintosh HD OSX.
    In >System Preferences> Startup Disk>choose your internal OSX System as Default.

  • 1600 all-in-one series printer error message to remove and check color cartridge will not go away

    Error message, remove and check color cartridge will not go away even after replacing cartridge (same refilled).  Any help would be appreciated.

    I had the very same problem with my HP Officejet 7410 so cleaned the ink cartridge and carriage contacts per the directions listed on this link: 
    http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/document?docname=c01423559&tmp_task=solveCategory&cc=us&dlc=en&la...
    After my first attempt at cleaning these contacts, i reinserted the cartridge and tried printing again but I got the same error message.  Next I removed both cartridges (color & black) from their slots and after pointing a flashlight at the carriage I discovered the bottom of the carriage was covered with ink, so....using over a dozen cotton swabs I cleaned the bottom of the carriage as best i could.  Also, thinking that perhaps the ink cartridge was not manufactured exactly to its proper size and shape, when i inserted the cartridges back into their slots I slightly pressed them in to be sure the contacts would touch. 
    I was happy to see that now the error message is gone and my printer is printing again....well, at least for now.

  • Having problem deleting all but one particular mail from the iPhone 4S mail inbox. I can delete mail either by the trash can or using edit, selecting the mail message and deleting.  However there is this one mail message that will not go away. Any ideas?

    I am having a problem deleting all but one particular mail message from my inbox. I delete by either using the trash can icon for individual mail, or using edit, selecting the mail message (s) and clicking delete.  However there is this one mail message that will not go away regardles of what I do including deleting all from the trash.  Any ideas?

    I get that every once in a while on my 3GS, and that's what I do to get rid of it. Probably not a bad idea to power down the phone every so often, anyway, gets rid of any crud waiting to cause a bug.
    Glad to hear that it worked for you.

  • New mail badge will not go away!

    I've tried every solution I could find on the forums here, but the unread icon will not go away...and the mailbox is empty! It's making me a little crazy, so any help would be appreciated. I don't believe that I have the option of uninstalling/reinstalling the mailbox because it is from work and no longer an active account, but I need to retain the messages.
    Screenshot attached.

    With the defective mailbox highlighted (as you have in the screenshot), do a Mailbox > Rebuild from Mail's menu.
