OS 5.0, Storm: URLs in SMS messages stop being clickable after the thread is opened the first time

I'm running 5.0.0.328 on a VZW Storm 9530.
After upgrading, I noticed that URLs in SMS messages and e-mails stop being clickable after a certain time. I'm not sure that this is so much a time issue as it is one with just getting X number of messages then breaking, but it works like this:
Battery Pull occurs
Storm reboots
Look at SMS messages, URLs can be clicked, opening them in the Browser
go on about my day
Get more SMS/eMail messages
Look at SMS messages, URLs can NOT be clicked. Have to be copied/pasted into browser to view.
Battery Pull occurs
Storm Reboots
I can again click on URLs and open them in browser
And that's how it goes. Initially, after a battery pull, the URLs in various SMS are underlined. Clicking them opens them in the browser. OR, I can touch them and hit the BB button, and select Open Link in Browser from the menu.
After some more testing, the problem appears to be related to the threading of SMS messages.
My test case is twitter. ALL my twitter messages are thrown into a single thread (I do NOT want this, by the way, I want individual SMS messages, NOT threads of them). SO let's say, for example, I have 25 SMS messages in the twitter thread. Immediately after the battery pull, I can open the thread, and after a moment, all URLs are underlined, clickable, and if I touch/hold for a second, highlighted and can be opened via the BB menu.
After exiting that thread to do other things, and then coming back to that thread, I have found that OLD SMS messages in the thread (the original 25 that were there when I did the battery pull) are still underlined, clickable, and so forth. However, any NEW messages added to the thread after I opened it the first time, are NOT clickable, NOT underlined.
My theory at this point is that the code that parses the SMS messages in a thread and then underlines the URLs making them usable, only runs that first time, and either does not run, or fails to run, on subsequent openings of that SMS thread.
Thus, if the messages were NOT threaded, then the code would run when each individual SMS was opened, eliminating this problem. OR, having that code run EVERY TIME a thread is viewed, to ensure it does the underlining/grabbing of URLs for new SMS messages.

I have updated iOS 6 in my iPhone 4S and it went perfectly fine. Just after that when I opened the message app I found that the sms body of system generated messages was not visible after tapping on them.

When I double-click the desktop icon I get an error message: XUL RUNNER error: Platform version '2.0.1' is not compatible with minVersion =5.0 maxVersion =5.0. I must right click the icon and choose 'RUN OUTSIDE THE SANDBOX' to open the browser.

This problem occurred shortly after updating to Firefox 5.0 I kept getting reminders to update to 5.0 When I finally decided to update, the first 4 or 5 attempts failed for one reason or another always with a different error message At some point after and extended shutdown of the computer 5.0 was initiated.

The updater wasn't able to update all the files and some were left as older versions.
You need to do a clean reinstall.
Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
* Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Uninstall your current Firefox version.
* Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version.
Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
* It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder] and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

What is the best way to copy aperture library on to external hard drive? I am getting a message that say's "There was an error opening the database. The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported".

What is the best way to copy aperture library on to external hard drive? I am getting a message that say's "There was an error opening the database. The library could not be opened because the file system of the library's volume is unsupported". What does that mean? I am trying to drag libraries (with metadata) to external HD...wondering what the best way to do that is?

Hi Shane. Not much in the way of thoughts - - but fwiw:
How is the drive attached?
Can you open large files on the drive with other programs?
Are you running any drive compression or acceleration programs (some drives arrive with these installed)?
Can you reformat the drive and try again?
Hi Kirby,
I attached the UltraMax Plus with a USB cable. The UltraMax powers the cable so power is not an issue. I can open other files. Also, there is 500GB of files on the drive so I cannot re-format it. Although, I noted I could import the entire Aperture Library. However, I do not want to create a duplicate on my machine because that would be defeating the purpose of the external drive.
Thanks,
Shane

It stopped sending mail and moving messages between folders, junk messages stopped being moved.

Recently, Thunderbird stopped sending mail and moving messages between folders, junk messages stopped being moved.

Further notes (different user, same problem):
* This is a problem that started in Thunderbird 32
* This involves both automatic (filter) moves and manual moves
* This includes use of keys and hotkeys (the delete key, for example)
* Restarting Thunderbird does seem to "reset" the problem... for a while. I notice the problem most when either I've been away from the computer/program for a while or when waking a laptop computer from a sleep or hibernation state.

Unable to open URL from SMS message

When I receive any SMS with link and when I click on that link the default browser opens and closes. I am not able to open any link. Due to this I have to always copy the link and paste in the browser and then try to open.
I have changed default browser to opera mini .. but still no luck..
I am using Nokia C7 with Anna OS. pls help

Thanks for the reply WD ABAP.
Yes, I did try to use the functionality of Worklist and the URL attachment successfully opened. However, there are some limitation in its functionality as indicated in the link below that opted us to use the SBWP in CRM WEB UI via transaction launcher.
http://wiki.sdn.sap.com/wiki/display/CRM/CRMWorklist-AdvancewithDialognotSupported
We don't want to adjust the logic of our existing workflow at this point as described in the above link as it will entails end-to-end testing again. We just encountered this issue when we update the SP level of CRM 7.
Hope there is an alternative solution without shifting us to Worklist.

How do you stop sms messages automatically being sent to an email address instead of a phone number?

I have noticed that sometimes (particularly when sending an sms to multiple people) my iphone 4s will send the message to peoples email addresses. This happens despite there being a phone number listed on the contact. You would have thought that an sms would automatically send to a phone number if there is one available for the contact, but instead it is sending the sms to an email address without warning. This results in me being charged for an mms and the recipient not recieving the text at their phone number. It happens when sending messages to both iphone users and non iphone users.
Does anyone know a way of fixing this?

I think its fixed. I had to sign iMessages in on my Apple ID, but then deselect my email addresses to make it behave the way it should. Now if I could get iMessage to only send response alerts to the last device I used, instead of late night texts going to every device I own in the house and waking everyone up.
For some reason, the free iCloud address I automatically received (when Apple was trying to force people to leave Mac.com) is "hardwired" into iMessage. People were also getting texts from that address even though I was on my phone. I tried to delete it but iOS tells me I can't. I don't use that address, I won't ever use it, too bad I can't make it go away.

TS2755 SMS messages are being received as emails

Hello. I have an iPhone 5, and as of a couple of days ago, when I send an SMS text message to another iPhone user, the recipient receives those messages as emails. Also, if other iPhone owners send me text messages, I don't receive them.
If I send an SMS text message to someone else (someone with an Android phone, for example), they are able to receive the messages normally, and their messages come to me.
I tried having a person with an iPhone 4S send me a text message. Rather than coming through as an iMessage, the message showed up on that person's phone as a normal SMS text message.
Has anyone seen this issue, and/or had any success in resolving it?
I'm running IOS 6.1.3, and I purchased the phone about three months ago.

Messaging between Apple devices is called imessage. To correct your problem go to settings - message - send&receive - make sure your cell is the defaut. You may need to uncheck or remove the apple id.

SMS Messages not being delivered

For the past 4 days now my SMS messages will not deliver. They say sent, but will not deliver, The person that is suppose to get them says they are not being recieved either so what are we supposed to do? Please attend to this immediately or at least tell us what to do. Thanks so much [edited for privacy] would appreciate response to this e mail address. thanks again

Same problem here,it say the SMS sent,but for the last 50 min. it's not been delivered yet.I have to mention the money went out from my account for it.I logged out and back in,changed status in hope will get it done somehow,but still nothing.
Why do we have to pay for a service that doesn't work? It's supposed to be fast and reliable(none of the abobe).My message is kinda too late now,and I doubt that I'll get my money back.
And yes..I did put the right number and the country code and so on,it's not the first time I use Skype for this.
Shame !

TS3276 when i send an email can i reiceve info that the recipient has opened the message? and how??

How can i tell if the recipient has opened my email

You can't. At least not reliably.
There is a pseudo-standard for return receipts, but it requires support on the client side (e.g. the mail client has to have it turned on, so that it sends a note when the message is opened), but it is poorly supported (not many mail clients support it), and can be turned off, even in the ones that do support it.
The alternative is to include an image with a unique URL that you can track back to a recipient via the web logs, but even this can be circumvented if the client doesn't load HTML content.

The thread only shows the first message

Hi everybody,
I already had this problem once before. Now I got another occurrence of that problem - from my threads I see that there is a new message in the thread I participated yesterday. I open it and I only see a single first message not all other messages. I can
also see that the thread has been renamed since the original title. Not sure if it helps in identifying the problem

can also see that the thread has been renamed since the original title.
That suggests to me that some moderation may have gone awry. I have a few instances of that on Answers but none here that I can think of. The problem would be that a moderator would split or edit a thread but somehow leave it in my My Threads,
thus giving me the continual irritation of seeing something that I had once contributed to but no longer with my contribution in it. It would be much less of a problem if it would not have any association with My Threads.

Supressing the "Could not open the communication device" message

Hello,
Lately whenever I connect to the internet, an Internet Connect window pops up with the message "Could not open the communication device." The connection, however, is fine, and I have no problems accessing the internet.
I've been clicking "OK" to this message several times whenever I connect to the internet but it's become tedious and I'd like to supress it. Can anyone help me?
20" Intel Core 2 Duo iMac Mac OS X (10.4.10) I'm using a Linksys WRT54GL to connect wirelessly.

Check to see what is checked ON in Network>Show:>Network Port Configurations, and drag the one used for Internet to the top of the list at least.
I think there must be another one checked ON and above the one that actually connects... dunno for sure yet though.

Long SMS messages are being cut off-- iPhone 5 (original model), iOS 7.1.2

When I receive messages from people on different carriers, AT&T in particular, I only receive the first 160 characters. The reason I'm asking is because this is a recent problem. I had no issue receiving long texts from people before; it would either become one long message or several which were =<160 characters. Why is this happening, and what can I do? This is very frustrating.

Sam7ii,
Thank you very much for that information. Just to verify, when someone with an Android phone texts you over 160 characters you successfully receive the entire message, right? Please try deleting all iMessages or text messages from the ones you're having issues with and then see if your phone will successfully receive a long message.
