Set how long the device stores messages

Hello,
I would like to know if with the z10 is possible to define the period during which all messages will be stored. With my blackberry bold 9700 I used to go under Messages then press the menu button then options then Message Display and Actions and finally under the option "days to keep messages" i could select the number of days.
Many Thanks
Regards
Sandro

Hey sandrosem,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
All messages are kept forever, on the BlackBerry Z10 there is no option to change this.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

I just recently purchased a mini iPad for my child. It was set up in the Apple store with my Apple id. I now want to create an Apple id for my child and switch it over, how can I go about that. I already downloaded some of the games from my account.

With a new account, you'll need to rebuy the games.
Each user should have their own icloud account, otherwise they end up getting the same emails, contacts, calendars, notes, reminders, etc. - usually not what you want. But if all have been sharing the same itunes ID, keep it that way, you can have different IDs for itunes and icloud.
If you already have another icloud account, and want to set it up on a device, then go to Settings>icloud, scroll to bottom of screen and tap Delete Account. This only disconnects the device from that account, no data is lost on icloud. Then enter the account ID that you want to use.
To create a new icloud account, go to

How long does Apple store text messages? I need old messages from July-Sept 2011

How long does apple store text messages. I need old text messages from July - September 2011. These messages were NOT deleted from phone. I can only go back as far as July 1, 2012. Please help, this is important!!!

Thank you!!!
What I concluded is that the phone information (with text message content) that we have came from the police department...when they conducted interviews, they asked for their phones and obtained the content, pictures, etc. that way. We also have logs from AT&T with information starting a few months prior to the incident; this information, however, is solely limited to who sent, who received, when, type of data, etc - NO content. I'm assuming that those are the logs that can be subpoenaed after the alloted amount of time, say, 10 days.
Does that sound correct?

How long does apple keep messages in imessage?

Hello,
Can any one tell me how long does Apple keep messages sent via iMessage in the iCloud (or anywhere else)?
Thanks

So forceful! You have a source for that subpoena and a date I suppose? My Google-Fu must be weak because I couldn't find such a subpoena on the net.
By the way, that answer isn't a "no." "As long as necessary" can be along time since Apple cannot determine when you've read it everywhere you want to and so it's OK to delete.
I was able to pull iMessages from old deleted message threads on a new device. I also come home and sit at my Mac and my message conversation from the day on my iPhone becomes mirrored in iMessages on my computer, attachments and all, where I then copy the things I can't on the phone like ringtones and so on. Anyone can try this at home and I suggest you do. Where are these messages stored all day as I'm using my phone to be later mirrored on my home Mac?
I'm not seeing an error. I'm not just looking at unsent messages. Does it even matter anyway? Apple stores messages and their ToS states that they can do this, you agreed to it, and this policy can change at any time without your consent. Read it, thoroughly. I had to deconstruct it in a law class for a paper. I doubt you did this.
You are defensive but nobody is attacking Apple. Of course Apple stores messages for a long time. Why wouldn't they? Apple necessarily has access to the iMessage servers exactly the same as the servers that store your email or photo streams. There are legitimate business reasons! No one is saying they are abusing this access. This isn't even an issue but saying it doesn't happen betrays a lack of knowledge how this tech works.
If someone sent you a bunch of iMessages, maybe hundreds, and you haven't read them they aren't stored indefinitely until you read them on a device or on a Mac with your iCloud account? Can you say how long? No, you can't and neither can anyone outside of Apple and this is a changing number anyway.
You believe that once a message is sent that Apple immediately deletes it? Why would they when there's no requirement? You might check it from another device later on, Apple can't know if you've read it everywhere you want to. Syncing conversations across devices that are checked at different times requires some amount of storage of historical messages! Deleting a message immediately once sent would prevent this.
Do you thoroughly understand the technology involved? Do you have inside Apple knowledge of trade secrets?
I posted in this thread because I genuinely want to help the OP and you are speaking without evidence whereas my assertion is easily tested by the community in 10 minutes.

Since I uploaded the new OS X Mavericks the App Store, Messages, Notes, Calendar, Maps and Preview will not launch/open. In Finder cannot find my files. Most crucially cannot upgrade OS X Mavericks software. I had two apple ID's, the old one not used

Please read this whole message before doing anything.
This procedure is a test, not a solution. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
Step 1
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is localized to your user account.
Enable guest logins* and log in as Guest. Don't use the Safari-only “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac.”
While logged in as Guest, you won’t have access to any of your documents or settings. Applications will behave as if you were running them for the first time. Don’t be alarmed by this behavior; it’s normal. If you need any passwords or other personal data in order to complete the test, memorize, print, or write them down before you begin.
Test while logged in as Guest. Same problem?
After testing, log out of the guest account and, in your own account, disable it if you wish. Any files you created in the guest account will be deleted automatically when you log out of it.
*Note: If you’ve activated “Find My Mac” or FileVault, then you can’t enable the Guest account. The “Guest User” login created by “Find My Mac” is not the same. Create a new account in which to test, and delete it, including its home folder, after testing.
Step 2
The purpose of this step is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party system modifications that load automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
Please take this step regardless of the results of Step 1.
Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
The login screen appears even if you usually log in automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of Steps 1 and 2.

HT4515 How do you adjust how long the iphone rings for before going to voicemail?

How do you adjust how long the iphone rings for before going to voicemail? Mine diverts after only a couple of rings.

I believe you do that through your phone service provider. I wonder if you have unheard messages in your voice mailbox. I think some carriers use that mechanism - diversion to voicemail faster if the recipient has unheard messages.
I do not believe you can change this directly on your iPhone.

Does Compressor 4 tell you how long the compression actually took?

I'm new to Compressor and compression in general.
When I "Submit" a video for compression in Compressor 4, it creates an entry in the History window that shows you when the video was submitted for compression. It also gives an estimated time for completion while the video is being compressed (though it seems to me it fluctuates and can be wildly inaccurate).
I usually leave the computer while the compression is happening. If it's done when I come back, I don't know how long the compression actually took. I don't see anything in the entry in the History window that tells me that. Is there any way to know when exactly the compression completed, or how long it took?
Thanks

Hi Jd, if you have SUBMITTED a job to a cluster (maintained by Qmaster) [not this computer], the transcode job pushed to Qmaster by compressor.app draws events and conditions in the various log in Qmaster. You can find these logs in your ~/library/application support/apple qmaster/logs for the cluster , theater vice controller, the transcoder daemons and job controller. These contain the start , end and I believe ELAPSED times for each job . It doesn't accumulate by a BATCH .. I will stand corrected though.
Simply browse these logs this with console.app. U can ofcourse "go troppo" and write some shell, perl or apple script to develop some system management facility records for your clients accounting by doing this... Just parsing the text records...
Anyway I recall,his info u want for JOB COMPLETION (elapsed time) is there despite its coarse data. Sadly I have not found a way to detail the CPU, storage and I/o .. Seems too much to do for my needs.
As u state, the SHARE MONITOR.app is for viewing dynamic job. It's a bit hit and miss when using over a cluster. Since mountain lion, it seems to jam up a,lots and magically ,come back to Liffey after many internal messages (see logs) that it failed on socket x n y ..... Sounds like its in need of some stability and robustness additions.
I've also found for very long and numerous multipass segmented transcodes that share monitor gets over whelmed.... Especially when the share monitor.app UI is utilised to "Expand all"... It gets super busy collecting traffic from Qmaster ..if u are using a cluster.

How long does Mail save messages?

How long does Mail save messages? What happens to them at the end of that period?

Depends. If you have a POP account and download your messages, then they are on your hard drive until you delete them. However, unless you enable the option to save email messages on the server once downloaded the message are deleted from the server immediately. Your email ISP may retain backups for some period of time, but you would need to ask them about it.
If you have and IMAP account your messages are saved on the server unless you delete them. They will be retained on the server indefinitely.

Fill in your adress in australia with your zip code and you will be done.

Can I see how long the longest entry has been in the sticky table ?

Hi,
I have a customer who has a possible issue with the sticky inactivity timeout on the CSS. At the moment we are using no timeout, just relying on the CSS to purge the entries.
However, is it possible to see how long the longest entry has been in the sticky table. I can see the 'elapsed time' with the 'show sticky' command but this only shows 100 entries per time and not in time order ?
Thanks in advance for any help

Michael,
You can use the command "show sticky-table" with L3 or L4 options, depending on what you have configured, then add ip addressing to the command, to focus down to where the oldest sticky entries are likely to be, but theres no other way. If your problem is having too many entries, configure a sticky timeout, as the default of 0 will keep then forever, or until overwritten due to the table being full. If the problem is sticky entries timing out too early, you can use the timeout parameter to increase their life, but the sticky table is limited to 32k entries.

If I change the nation setting of my iTunes in order to buy a song from the American iTunes store, then change my setting back to the Korean store (where you cannot buy music) will that create any problems with my downloaded content?

If I change the nation setting of my iTunes in order to buy a song from the American iTunes store, then change my setting back to the Korean store (where you cannot buy music) will that create any problems with my downloaded content? I want to buy an album that I cannot get hold of in Korea, but it is available in the US iTunes store. However since most of my apps are downloaded from the Korean store I'll need to switch back in order to update them. Does anyone know if there are any issues in doing this. I'd rather find out before I spend money, change my store setting back to Korea, and then get told I can't listen to the music because I bought it from the US store and my iTunes is set to the Korean store.
Cheers.

You canot easily change your country settings. The iTunes Store in a country is intended only for use by that country's residents, and only while they are in the country. To use the iTunes Store in a country you need a credit card (or other card type if acceptable in a country) issued in that country, billed to an address in that country, and also be physically present in that country when using the store. You are also restricted to waiting 90 days between country changes.
E.g., "The iTunes Service is available to you only in the United States, its territories, and possessions. You agree not to use or attempt to use the iTunes Service from outside these locations. Apple may use technologies to verify your compliance." - http://www.apple.com/legal/itunes/us/terms.html#SERVICE

We are using iPhoto '09 trying to import photos from a memory card. We stopped the import and ejected the card over 20 hours ago, but iPhoto says its still importing. Any idea how long the import should run if there were 5000 photos on the card?

Don't know how long it would take to import that many photos but if you stopped import and ejected the card ther is something else wrong here.
I would Force Quit iPhoto. Then Restart your mac. Then restart iphoto to see if any or all of your photos were imported. If they ae you're good to go. If they were not imported I would try importing fewer photos at a time and see what happens.
