Picture before message in iMessage

Hello everybody,
I have a question, maybe someone can help me.
In the iMessage app I miss before every message the picture of initials.
So when you open the iMessage app I miss at the let site the pictures or initials who send the message.
Who can help?
Thank you!

This has happened to me since I've gotten my iPhone 4 (Verizon) and I have not been able to find a solution.

Can't send message in iMessage unless a picture is attached

Then the answer was "turn the 'show subject' switch to off, wasn't it? Was it the header in an earlier apparition?

I am unable to send any messages on iMessage

i am unable to send any messages on iMessage. I have never used it before so maybe I haven't set it up properly? When I choose a person to send a message to its fine, but when I type the message, the send button is grey and my message won't send.

Can you receive Messages?

So I have the iPhone 4 and just updated iOS 8.1.2 on my phone using my computer, and now I can't find any pictures or messages from last Tuesday (1/6/15). How would I be able to get it all back?

I was trying to put more music on my phone, but iTunes said I had to update and restore my phone. The only reason why I update using my computer is because I use up too much space to update using wi-fi, and I'd rather not erase everything to be honest. I started around 5-ish on 1/12/15 and finished around 12-ish on 1/13/15. (I had to keep restarting my computer and phone to get the system update like the troubleshooting website suggested.)The last time I backed up my phone was about a week ago on 1/6/15. But now when I look at my text messages and pictures, everything ends at 1/6/15 as if I never used my phone since then. Honestly, it's really frustrating. I know that you have to back up your phone before updating and everything, but I just wanted to know if there was a way I can get all of my missing stuff back. Maybe I did something wrong?? I'm just hoping there's a way for me to get my pictures and messages back. I don't even really care about the update to be honest lol. Any suggestions would help!!

You cannot update iPhone 4 to IOS 8.1.2, the highest you can update is IOS 7.1.2.
Unless you've iPhone 4S (looks similar to iPhone 4)

Can't take more than one picture through Messages

I've had this problem since I first received my iPhone 6 and I always thought it just needed a software update, but I'm beginning to think that even that can't help. Basically when I try to choose the 'Take photo or video' option when sending a picture through Messages, I end up with a black screen (not entirely a black screen, but where I should be viewing the photo/video that I'm about to take). I'm only able to use that option once throughout the whole day and then if I try it again some other time all I end up with is a black screen or like today, an image of the last picture I took using that feature. I've tried resetting and rebooting my phone but to no avail. Two other people in my household are also iPhone 6 users and they don't seem to have a problem with this feature. So, not really sure if anyone else has had this problem or it's just me. I wanted to consult someone here first before taking it to the Apple Store to have them take a look at it.

Something definitely wrong.
There's probably another fix but what I'd do is re-fresh Aperture, and that's easy to do.
Hold down the Alt+Apple keys while turning on Aperture and follow the prompts.

Upgraded to ios6 on ipad2 now I cant send messages from imessage.

Upgraded to ios6 on ipad2 now I cant send messages from imessage. Any fix? I've rebooted/powered down and on again and in Settings turned messages off and on again. Still won't work...

I did speak a bit too soon it seems - while I can now send messages again from my iPad 2, it still doesn't show me messages that were sent to me via my telephone number. Which is weird, because in the "You can be reached by iMessage at:" setting I do have my telephone number checked.
At this moment I have set my iPad 2 and iPhone 4's "Start new conversations from:" setting to my Apple ID e-mail address. This way at least I can send messages *and* receive messages if people don't use my telephone number to send me messages...
So yes, you should probably wait a while before restoring your iPad 2 - it doesn't fix things completely.

How can I stop getting unsolicited **** messages in iMessage

As the title states I need to stop getting **** messages in iMessage on my phone. I can tell because they start with a number like 906.xx, not a phone number.
This may not be possible to stop but catch before I open
Has anyone else run into this issue and if so what have you don't to attempt to stop it.

at the top page of Messages on my phone there is no color code, it's all just grey text, I do not click open the message, I swipe left and delete but this has happened several times this month.
I done not visit those types of sights on my phone or my MBP
It's been suggested that there is a robot dialing random numbers, but to get three in a month make me wonder.
Thanks for the tip,
I will look at it on my MBP next time to see if its there and if it has a color.
very good advise
thanks

Is there a way to hide buddy icon/picture in messages? [In the left section that lists all chats]

Is there a way to hide buddy avatars/pictures from Messages? I don't mean in a the chat window, but in the left section that lists all active conversations. I don't really use pictures with contacts, so all I see are gray faces.
Using Messages 8.0 on Mavericks.

Hi,
The answer is No.
Whilst the App can also use Buddy list (See Window Menu) for accounts which use AIM, Jabber or Yahoo an important part of these is the Buddy Pic.
By default Messages in the iMessages account will send the My Card pic from the Contacts app for yourself.
(if you have Buddy Lists and change the pic for them, then it will send that pic)
Also if you drag the side bar in the Chat (main Messages window) to it's smallest setting (move the divider to the left) you are left with just the Sender's pic (or lack of it) in square spot that has no version of the last iMessages sent.

I can't send a message on iMessage?

So, about 2 months ago, one of my friends (she lives on the other side of Canada BTW) sent me a text message on iMessage. So then I sent her—or tried to send her—a text back. But then the text bubble had a red circle with a white exclamation mark next to it, and "Not Delivered" below it. I'm sure that this isn't an internet issue, I searched this up before, and it said that it has something to do with the person that you're sending the text to having a newer OS than you but having an older iPod touch. I have a 4th generation iPod touch, and iOS 5.1.

Question Re Picture & Video Messaging (PIX Place)

Ok, so I have the LG Accolade (i.e., no micro SD card) on the Prepaid Core plan, and have been trying to access the original picture files I have taken at their maximum 1.3 MP resolution (1280 x 960 pixels).
In an earlier thread, it was suggested to me that I try uploading the photo(s) in question to Verizon's PIX Place (Picture & Video Messaging). From my phone, I chose [Send] To Online Album (which cost the standard 25¢ MMS fee deducted from airtime), read & agreed with the online TOS, etc., and logged in.
I saw the photo icon in the "My Media" folder, but when I clicked the VIew Larger link, this was all I got (image below is reproduced here at original size as it displayed on the webpage).... What does, "The original uploaded image size and resolution are preserved in your account" mean? Where is this "online account," and how can I preview/download it to my PC?
I'd like to be able to display some of these photos in our (mid-sized) digital photo frame here at home (for starters). Surely these tiny little (426 x 320) pixel images are not all the 1.3 MP camera phones are capable of producing??

Why don't you just download them onto the computer then re-size them in a photo program? You can use a free online resizer or this free batch resizer. It will resize a whole folder and keep originals in tact. As far as I know the zoom function in the IE browser is just that a zoom function and not a picture resizer. Mary
If I were able to simply "download them onto [my] computer" (i.e. at their original size), I wouldn't be posting these questions, as that is precisely what I'd wished to do in the first place. But this is what has been at issue with this phone since the proverbial Day One.
As I explained before in another earlier thread, the USB cable that came with the phone does NOTHING. When you connect it to the PC, it won't even recharge the phone (which according to the user's manual it is supposed to do without fanfare), much less access the phone memory or transfer any data. The Hardware Wizard comes up on Windows and it asks for a *Modem* driver, which: a) the modem is not what is needed here; and b) there is no compatible driver to be found. Seems something was said somewhere else on these forums about switching the default from Modem to USB Mass Storage; but there is no external memory card and I cannot find anything resembling this in the phone menus.
The thing about resizing digital image files is, you can make them smaller, but not larger. Well technically you can (depending on your image editing program); but the resolution in almost all cases will be *really crappy* and it defeats the purpose. From what I see of PicResize.com, it doesn't do anything I can't do myself (offline) using the freeware image editor from Irfanview. In fact, if you'll notice from the screenshot I've posted below, all the prefigured options are for making the photo smaller (25%, 50% and 75% of original size). When I chose Custom (to change Verizon's 426 x 320 "downsized" version back to the original 1280 x 960 res.) all that did was to double the filesize (in kilobytes) of the uploaded image.
What I'm thinking is that Verizon has in some way deliberately crippled these phones so that the customer cannot utilize the original 1.3 MP camera images at full resolution. If it wasn't so, seems that a VZW representative would've already responded to one of these threads and cleared things up for us, if it were designed to be easy or intuitive. But that's not what's happening. Despite all the unnecessary hoops we've tried jumping through so far, nothing has worked. I could be mistaken about that -- I hope I am and it's an option or setting somewhere on the camera that I have missed -- though I personally doubt it. Either way, I am posting these things so that others will know (hopefully in advance of purchase) what the LG VX5600 phone is capable of (on Verizon's prepay service) and what it is not. No sense having a 1.3 MP camera if all you can get from it is a tiny image less than normal VGA resolution -- the more basic Samsung U350 Smooth is capable of that! As a selling point for this phone, it is 100% moot.

How to retrieve messages on iMessage after changing apple ID?

I had to delete the email account that was associated with my Apple ID, so I changed my Apple ID, but all my previous messages on iMessage disappeared. Is there a way I can access these from my Apple account? I was receiving messages on an iPad.

If you created a new apple id then its not the same account.
If all you did was change an email address associated with it, then thats different. You should be able to access messages as before.
