Scrolling through message thread while typing new message....

Prior to iOS7 when I typed a long text I could press edit while typing to scroll up to see the previous message. Now once I've filled the screen I can't find anyway to go back and look at the previous message until I've pressed send... I type a lot of long messages and it's annoying to not be able to see what I'm replying too..... Anyone know how to do this ? Thanks....

I thought so too but apparently you can read them. You just swipe the tiny bar above the message you're typing down (underneath the name of the person you're texting with) and you can re-read your messages

Finding threads that have new messages

Like a lot of people I post suggestions in reply to new topics. I don't want to subscribe to every thread that I take part in, that would be a lot of emails coming to me! But I do want to go to My Posts and quickly see what threads have new messages.
The way My Posts works though is the threads are shown in posting date order, meaning I think the date that I last added a message myself. Very often a thread may be quiet for a while, or I'm following along and have nothing new to add. When a new message is added it can be several pages back in the My Posts list, making it very hard to see them.
One work around I use is to go to the second page of My Posts, and then change the range=10 to range=1000, which then shows the last 1000 posts. Next I look at the page source and do a search for "updated-16x16.gif", the graphic that sits next to any threads that have unread messages in them. If the first one it finds is at the bottom of the page source, I know there are no new messages. If it's found earlier, I can see the thread ID just below the one that is found.
Now, I suspect that there could be an easier way to work than this! Is there a built in way in the forum to see just the threads that have new messages, that I haven't discovered? Or could there be such a feature at some future date?

Hi, Colin -
Is there a built in way in the forum to see just the threads that have new messages, that I haven't discovered?
Unfortunately, no.
Or could there be such a feature at some future date?
That has been requested several times, and has been responded to by the Hosts that it is on the to-do list. When it might eventuate has not been specified.
What works for me - I habitually visit only about 15 forums; actually, it's 6 category pages, each of which includes between 1 and 5 forums. New replies to topics float those topics to the top of the listings on the lower part of the category pages. Since I visit those categories several times a day, I don't miss any new replies.
I do use the My Posts feature - I go there first, respond to any new replies shown on the first page, and then start travelling category pages. To make it easy I keep links to those 6 category pages in the toolbar favorites in my browser, so any one of them is but a single click away.

Bug In Forum while posting new messages since weekend?

Hi all,
some people have some trouble posting message since the update try on weekend.
Look at this thread Bug In Forum while posting new messages?
Maybe this can be solved?
Regards, Tine.

Hello,
>> Right, so I am not the only one.
No, you are not the only one.
>> Maybe anybody of the responsible persons is reading this and can file a bug report.
I believe this is the proper place to complain - Community Feedback (No Product Questions) .
@Scott:
>> Also, I never saw any posting explaining why data was lost over the weekend, that efforts had been made to recover the lost data, or that efforts to recover the lost data had failed.
I absolutely agree with you. I know that the forum software is not developed by Oracle, still some words of explanation from the OTN guys is definitely in place, especially about the loss of data.

Error in message monitoring while creating new record in R/3

Hi All,
I am getting the following error in message monitoring while creating a new record from SAP Mobile client.
Service name: Validation_Service
Message: BackendKeys are not filled in table HEADER returned by getDetails
I am passing some random number from Client to SAP R/3 create function module.
When i pass the same value in create FM as in message monitoring. I am able to create the record successfully,
Corresponding to newly created record, i can see the data in getdetail header also.
Not sure why this error is coming.
Appreciate your help!!
Thanks & Regards
Devendra

The CREATE FM should not only create the entry, it should also EXPORT the key that it uses to create the entry. Is it doing that?
i.e. the CREATE signature is usually something like:
CREATE_BLAH
IMPORTING header TYPE header_row
EXPORTING key type header_row-key_field.
So the 'key' here should be filled by the FM and returned to DOE.

Cannot return to message list while in a message without clicking on "compose new message icon" and then cancelling it.

After updating to 8.1 from 8 i cannot return to my message list from inside a message without clicking on the "compose new message" icon and then canceling out of that.
Also, where it used to say return, it now says "Edit" and the word "Message" on the top of the screens is scruched together.

Pressing Esc while typing a message deletes my mes...

Hello,
Here is the problem:
I'm writing a message, and I accidentaly press the Esc character.
The message is instantly gone, no prompt, no dialog no nothing.
And I can't even get it back, Ctrl+Z doesn't do anything, arrow keys as well...
I think that this is a flawed UI design and I couldn't find a way to change it.
If someone has a solution I would be very grateful.
Typing the message in Notepad and copy-pasting is not a solution.

Yes this is a wonderfull peice of design by the skype team.
If you are in default view pressing escape key deletes everything you have typed - nice - well done team skype for yet one more idiotic implementation.
If you switch to compact view, when you press the Esc key you get a prompt informing you that you are about to delete your conversation, so can say:
Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!
This takes you back to your chat without deleting anything.
Thank you for the suggestion.
In my version of Skype, the "Compact View" is actually called "Split Window View".
Nevertheless, it works like you've described it.
It would be nice to have that option in the "Single Window View" as well.
I might ask for that feature, If I can find how to do it.

Stopping the message ping sound on new messages

Is their a way to stop the ping sound associated with the receipt of new messages, either SMS Texts, Emails, etc. on my 8310 Curve using 4.5 software
Thanks,
Howard

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Go to Profiles. Scroll down to Advanced. Select profile to edit and edit in/out of holster settings. If you want no sound select none under that item (i.e. SMS, MMS, Phone, Cal, etc.)

What do I do to resolve an ongoing problem with the MAIL "new messages sound".? If I reboot the iMAC and keep the mail app open after a number of messages come in the NEW MESSAGE Sound quits. I have to reboot the machine to get it back.

New Messages sound quits after several messages have arrived. I've tried several passes at resolving but nothing I have done seems to work. Sometimes I have to reboot the imac several times to get the New Messages Sounds back. Everything else works. The only thing I haven't done is reinstall the OS and that seems foolhardy.

Hi Memalyn
Essentially, the bare issue is that you have a 500GB hard drive with only 10GB free. That is not sufficient to run the system properly. The two options you have are to move/remove files to another location, or to install a larger hard drive (eg 2TB). Drive space has nothing to do with SMC firmware, and usually large media files are to blame.
My first recommendation is this: download and run the free OmniDiskSweeper. This will identify the exact size of all your folders - you can drill down into the subfolders and figure out where your largest culprits are. For example, you might find that your Pictures folder contains both an iPhoto Library and copies that you've brought in from a camera but are outside the iPhoto Library structure. Or perhaps you have a lot of purchased video content in iTunes.
If you find files that you KNOW you do not need, you can delete them. Don't delete them just because you have a backup, since if the backup fails, you will lose all your copies.
Don't worry about "cleaners" for now - they don't save much space and can actually cause problems. Deal with the large file situation first and see how you get on.
Let us know what you find out, and if you manage to get your space back.

Turning off new message indicator AND the new message count

Greetings,
Is it possible to turn off both the new message indicator (red asterix) and the new message count?
I would like no message indicators to appear on my blackberry home screen.
Thanks ever so much for your help.

I guess I didn't read close enough. I don't think you can turn off the red asterisk. It's going to show up on the icon no matter what.
As for the text messages, I'm not sure the setting for not showing message count indicator applies for text messges. In fact, if you have OS 5, it most likely doesn't as sms is handled much differently.
You can turn off sounds and the red led in Profiles (or Sounds in OS 5)
You're basically wanting to disabl everything the phone was designed to do.

Two tables of contact persons while typing text message.

Hi,
when I want to type a text message and when I try to type the name of the contact person. The blackberry shows the possibilities twice. So I see two tables of contact persons but just one is a workable table. The other stays as a kind of background. It will only disappear if I scroll with the trackpad over the table.
Is this a known problem and is there a solution?

Yes, the speaker is on the bottom (where you plug it in to charge - that's between two things, one is the speaker, one is the mic, just like another user said -- just thought I'd clarify that it is near where you plug it in to charge/sync).
I noticed something odd with my sound once, too. The normal "click" sounds (when turning it on/off or sleep/wake) changed to a different pitch. Not a problem, just kinda bothersome that it happened out of nowhere. I can't remember whether I simply powered it completely off and then back on or if I did the reset (hold home button and power button at same time, ignore the prompt to "slide to turn off" until it shuts off & you get the apple), but which ever I did, that fixed it. Have you tried either of those yet? If not, try the simple power off then back on, and try the reset if that doesn't help.

Message Split - single receiver- New Message ID

Hi,
I am trying a message split to a single receiver. But I want to have multiple line items in sxmb_moni with different Message IDs. So that if there is a failure of the message, through the triggered alert, I would be able to submit that single message.
P.S: I am trying to avoid BPM.
reg

Hi,
If you are avoiding BPM..then it means Splitting fill take place in Adapter Engine( for correspnding adapters).
So if message fails in AE that it is possible to restart/resubmit that failed message (splittted message).
Thanks

No Image Size menu or Message Size report in New Message window

Greetings all,
New iMac user (OS X 10.5.8, Mail 3.6). In scanning Mac Help & the Apple Support forums, I note numerous references for Mail 3.6 to an Image Size Menu button at bottom right of Compose window, and a Message Size window at the bottom left. Have never seen these items. Are they hidden? If so, what is the reveal? Appreciate any assistance. Thank you.
Gallery Info

To All,
After sending in my question, I went back to Mail Help & noticed that images could be attached by dragging from Photo Browser or Desktop or Finder, or by clicking on the 'Paperclip' icon. We had only ever used the 'Paperclip'. Dragged an image from the Photo Browser and both Message Size report & Image Size menu button appeared. Then went back and tried Desktop, Finder & 'Paperclip'. Now, the two items appear, whichever method is used. Doesn't work on all .jpg images, but is sufficient for the need.
Guaranteed that if original question wasn't submitted, never would have found out how it works. Many thanks to Apple Discussions.

I use icloud email but (2 email accounts univ and icloud) and i need to have all my outgoing emails come "from" my university account, not my icloud. So how do i do that, note checking the default box for sending new messages only applies to new messages

I am using icloud email but i also have a university account. All my email is fowarded to my icloud account and what i need to do is make sure all of my email that i ship is from my university account and not from my icloud account. I know there is a box that allows the default for all new emails to originate from one account but how do i make sure that all my replies to email (i.e. they have been fowarded from university account to icloud) now go from my university account. please help anyone.

Sorry for the delayed response, yes i want to use my university account when replying to all emails. Note i just discovered something, when i forward my university email to my icloud account and than responded from either my imac of my macbook air (i.e. in icloud) it automatically goes to my university account in the "from" space (good news!!!). That is just what i wanted, . While that is the good news, the bad news is that my iphone and ipad still treat this email as being from icloud even though it is forwarded (redirected) from my university account. That is when i respond to an email (or for that matter create a new email in my icloud account) it automatically lists the icloud account as the "from" account and i have to go in and manually modify it. So i am 50% there to solving my problem (i.e. actually did nothing the systems just worked well) but i still need to figure out a way to make this happen on my ipad and iphone. Any help or suggestions, note the default button in the iphone and ipad for email work differently than the default in the composition menu of the imac or macair.

I can receive mail but cannot answer or forward or do anything with the body of the message including scroll through it.

My mail program has stopped working. I can receive emails but cannot do anything with the message,scroll through, answer or create a new message to be sent.

Quit the mail app completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.
Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Or .... Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
