Send contact info in email or text message on iphone

How can I send contact information in an email or a text message? Also, is there are way that I can copy information within a contact, email or text message for use elsewhere?

You guys just wait ! !
The iPhone is simply a breakthrough... It's interface is revolutionnary.
Of course many functions are missing right now (I myself could list a good 5 cruelly missing features, but it's not the object of this answer...).
But here's a thought :
Apple is NEW at this... The most important part of a phone is...to be able to make or receive a call... that has to be ALWAYS working.
So, Apple is making sure that the iPhone is STABLE. In order to do so, it needs to proceed cautiously, adding a bunch of features aphazardly would probably cause the iphone to crash regularly, something Apple simply can't let happen : IT'S STILL A PHONE ! !
It's true Apple seems to have made some wrong choices at the beginning (ex: no third-party apps !), but they have come back from that !They will soon deliver a platform for third-party apps that will guarantee stability.
So, I am positive that the future updates will allow us to do EVERYTHING a Blackberry does (or any other phone...)in a much smoother way too...
But if being patient is the price to pay for stability, I can wait !
Some of you will argue that Apple should have work out these kinks sooner and launch a "finished" product. Do that I would answer : you've got to launch it sometimes ! If you wait too long, you might get passed by...
It seems that the iPhone is a succes despite its faults... Apple has established their customer base and I think it will now start to Deliver even more on the iPhone !
And to think I don't even own stock ! How could I write such a dithyrambic post ! !

  • I can't send contact info or notes from my iPhone to another iPhone via message.  when i try touching the send button nothing happens.

    I thought I used to be able to share contact information with another iphone user via messaging.  Recently I tried sharing both contact information and "note", but have been able to do so.  When I try touching the send button, nothing happens.  Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong?  Or, am I mistaken, is sharing via messaging not an option?

    If I send via email from either iPhone or iPad it seems like it has sent but it doesn't. If I send via text message from iPhone it says message failed to send and won't send again no matter how many times I try

    Just the name? Don't ever recall that being a feature. However, for Mail and Messages (and a few other apps): Settings app > General > Text Size

  • Email to text message

    Before I switched to an iPhone it was possible for someone to email a message that was received as a text message (SMS). there are times that receiving a text message is much more convenient than checking email. The AT&T web site says it should be possible to do this by emailing a message as follows:
    "All AT&T wireless phones are set up to send and receive e-mail messages by using the following address: [email protected] You can exchange short e-mails with any e-mail address worldwide."
    However, when I or anyone else tries to do this to my iPhone the email immediately bounces back with the message of "no such user" or something like that.
    It is clear that on the iPhone you cannot enter anything other than numbers when you want to text someone but I would be content if I could receive texts that originate as an email.
    AT&T says this feature doesn't work on iPhones.
    However, I went into an Apple store and an employee successfully emailed a text message to themselves on their iPhone
    I think the problem is that AT&T somehow messed up my account so that they don't have a way of accepting an email intended for my text messaging.
    Can anyone shed any light on this? I have a 3GS.
    Thanks,
    Pete

    Allan-
    you CANNOT enter an email address in the "To:" field of the Message app on an iPhone. first of all the entry keyboard that pops up when you are in the Messages app only has letters and numbers. there is no way to enter the "@" symbol or a ".". even if you copy an email address and paste it into the "To:" field, when you try and send the SMS the "." and the "@" are removed.
    give it a try and see what you see.
    but, that isn't what I want to do. I want someone sitting at a computer using any old email client to send an email that gets sent to as a SMS. to do that the person should enter:
    [email protected]
    when the person does that with my cell phone number, the email gets bounced back. have you tried this on your computer using your cell phone number and the rest of the address above and iPhone and does it work?
    thanks,
    Pete Rock

  • How do I get my Blackberry to only show me email and text messages? OS 6.0

    I'm in a love/hate relationship with OS 6.0 on a Bold 9650
    It is giving me too much information.  I only want to see and be notified of email and text messages, but it is now showing me Calendar and Facebook messages and notices.
    Can I change the settings and turn off these items?  I can't find anything on it.
    Thanks!!! SheriGNP
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Facebook messages: Open Facebook > press the Menu key > Options > scroll down to and UNselect the option to integrate Facebook with your Messages application.
    For both Facebook and Calendar notifications, go to your profiles and set the notications for these two apps to be silent or no notification.
    Untill you learn many of the simple features of the BlackBerry 9650, you will be frustrated.

  • I can send, but I can't receive texts messages from just one person

    I can send,  but I can't receive texts messages from just one person.....thanks

        Hello railenemarie16, let's solve this mystery together! Have you tried deleting your contact from her device and then re-adding? Also, have her send you a message manually instead of from the saved contact. Did you have an iPhone previously before the Note 3 and used iMessage? Keep us posted!

  • My iPhone no longer gives me audible alerts for email and text messages.  Just stopped. Help.

    My iPhone just stopped giving me audible notifications for email and text messages.  It still rings for calls.  I have checked the settings for "Sounds" and they have not changed.  However, in these settings when I try to change the sound I get only the vibration and not the sample sound.  Can anyone help?

    Make sure you have "Predictive" turned on (green) in Settings > general > Keyboards.

    Did you change your sim card? I had this same problem because I moved countries and had to add a 1 before the number and area code.

    In messages next to where you would normally enter text you'll see a mic button. Press and hold the button to record your message. When done let go and a control circle will appear with a x to delete the recording, a play button to check your message, and upward arrow to send the message.

  • Sending contact info

    How do I send contact info from my Contacts to another person by e.g. SMS? There seems to be no way to copy a contact info from one application to another in Phone...

    It would be a good idea to have something like that. Here we are with a neat device that can do anything, but two people still have to manually enter contact info in front of each other. What's cool would be to just put two iPhones face to face, do some pumping motions, and whisper a secret code into the mic to initiate the contact exchange.
