Sharing Contact details by text message

If I click on "share" under one of my Contacts to send a message with that person's details to another phone, does it only work with iPhones? I've tried sending it to a Samsung Galaxy and the recipient "can't open the attachment".

You cannot send contact info via SMS at this time.
No one here knows Apple's plans but you can send feedback - http://apple.com/feedback

  • How can I add multiple contacts to a text message on a droid bionic

    How can I add multiple contacts to a text message on a droid bionic?

    DH
    I was thinking that if he wanted to create multiple keyframes he might be creating a repeated effect rather than manipulating values that are shot specific - like creating an oscillation or some repeated step effect.  If he was creating keyframes specific to his content he'd probably not look for a way to do it "quickly" since each keyframe would require manipulation of specific values. 
    So my thought was to generate the series of keyframes on a dummy clip created for this specific purpose, copy the clip, paste attributes (maybe turn off "Scale Attribute Times") and add bunches of keyframes at once. 
    Still, you're right, it's tough to divine the intent of someone very new to FCP.  His question could be based on a misunderstanding about the use of keyframes.

  • I have an iPhone 4s iOs 5.1.1, I want to update it to iOs 7, if I've backed up to iCloud will my contacts, pictures and text messages be saved and able to be restored if lost?

    I have an iPhone 4s iOs 5.1.1,( I know I need an update!) I want to update it to iOs 7, if I've backed up to iCloud will my contacts, pictures and text messages be saved and able to be restored if lost? I recently backed up to the iCloud as recently as this morning at 2AM.

    OCD with good reason
    With a second backup, as you now have, you are well protected.  The update makes a backup to use for restoring after the install but with another you should be in great shape.
    Just take you time and be patient, these can take a while to complete depending on server load, connection speed, etc.

  • If I delete someone from my contacts and a text message is that message also deleted from contact?

    If I delete someone from my contacts and a text message between us is that message also deleted from person(contact) I deleted?

    I think you are asking if you delete a message on your device, does that delete it on the other person's device? Is that what you are asking?
    The answer to that would be No.

  • Issue with selecting a contact to send text message in BB Hub

    Dear all,
    Currently, I meet some issues in selecting a contact to send text message.
    In BB Hub, tap Text message, tap Compose,
    In "To:" field, tab "+" for selecting contact, I see that, there are contacts mixing  between mobile contacts, facebook contacs (current, on my Q10, facebook accounts are syned at the first time I login in facebook, but now I not syn any more) so It brings to me a confusion of selecting, sometime I select a wrong contact,...
    So, please help me, when I tap "+", I can filter type of Contact I want to use, for example, I can filter facebook contact, mobile contact,...
    And I don't understand, why don't classify contact based on type of account, mean that:
    Hub is where manage all accounts (face, mail, text message,...), then contacts also classify based on those accounts, for example, when I tap Facebook then only accounts belong to Facebook will be available, and contacts of other accounts will be unavailable,
    And, of course, when I tab Text message, then only contacts belong to Text message (mobile) will be availabe, this will avoid the issue that I mentioned above...
    Could I be helped by these issues or I must wait for a upgraded OS release? And I don't know all critical issues that mentioned in this forum will be fixed in the next release....
    Thanks for your help,
    Regards,
    Don

  • How do I permanently delete contacts from my text message log?

    How do I permanently delete contacts from my text message log?  It still shows old contacts once I've removed them from my phonebook

    i know that!! After you delete them and then compose a new text it is still there. Basically you know when you send an email to someone and do not store them it still auto populates their name. This is what happens with my phone. I Google this issue and learn some knowledge about data eraser tips.  Maybe most people still don’t know that actual contents of file are not really deleted when performing simple deletion operation on your iPhone or other devices. But they are just marked for deletion and not shown in the file system of your iOS device. The actual data are still physically present on your iPhone. For iOS system, the only way to completely erase the data is to overwrite the original contents by using iPhone data eraser app. this is the guide on how to permanently delete contacts on iPhone.
      The same thing happens to me, but it doesn't require deleting a contact. When I delete/replace a contact's number, the Messages.app still autocompletes the number with the contact's name and references it as "other". 

  • Add contact detail to a message Nokia N97 Mini

    Hi, I bought a Nokia N97 Mini in January, and I still can't resolve this problem: I don't know how to add a contact detail to the body of any text message. I have had several Nokia phones, for years, and I remember that if you wanted to send a text message, lets say to a friend and this friend asked you for someone else's phone number in order to send it you just start a new message> insert content> contact detail, then you just chose the contact you'd like to send the phone number of and that's it. Now, I can't figure out how to do it with my new phone. Sorry if I sound silly, it's just that I don't know where else to look for. Thnx!

    Hi,
    I beleive you are using MS Outlook.
    Try the following workaround.
    Manual sync
    Open Nokia Ovi Suite--> Sync--> Sync option--> Uncheck the sync automatically everytime you connect the device.
    Then Sync--> Sync now--> Contact,
    Repair the "pst" and the "ost" Outlook files as in the following location.
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\SCANPST.EXE
    C:\Program Files\Microsoft Office\Office12\SCANOST.EXE
    Right click the above mentioned exe file and 'Run' it.
    NOTE 
    It's adviced to take a back- up of the user's Outlook folders to avoid any loss of information.
    Check with Microsoft support pages for more information.

  • How can I stop the sharing on the iPhones that are in the same account because its sharing every thing even text messages

    How can I stop the sharing on the iPhones that are on my account because its sharing everything even text messages and its driving everybody crazy

    An icloud account is designed to be used by one user to keep his/her devices in sync. 
    If you have muitiple family members or friends using the same account as yours, then have them get their own Apple IDs and icloud accounts.
    If you mean you want to stop the sharing between all your devices, then on any one device, go to Settings>icloud and turn off the services you don't want that device to share/sync.  Or turn off icloud altogether if that's what you want.

  • IPhone not showing contacts names in text messaging after sync AND reset

    Three days ago, I bought the iPhone 4S as an updgrade from the 3GS. I also transferred my wireless service plan from AT&T to Verizon. Since doing that, very strange things are happening. For example, my contacts appeared to transfer without a problem, but whenever I attempt a call to a number that does not have a "1" stored in front of it, it tells me that I am attempting a long-distance or international call and the call won't go thru unless I place a 1 in front of the number and store it that way. Also, whenever I send text messages and someone replies, their message comes back to my phone under the phone number only and not the name that is stored in my contacts. This happens even when the contact sends a direct message to me that is not a reply. (Imagine all the "Merry Christmas" messages I received yesterday that I have no idea who they were from, except the 5 out of 300 contacts whose numbers I have memorized!!) I have gone to the Apple Store and the "Genius" there reset my phone, which temporarily fixed the problem, but now it is back. I did a soft reset, now it randomly selects which names will show up in my text message window. (For example, yesterday, the name "Jane" shows a message that says "Merry Christmas", but after the reset, only Jane's number shows up in the text screen with the same message from yesterday.)
    Does anyone know what in the world is going on?? This is Very Annoying! I'm tempted to go back to AT&T, as I am being told that the iphone technology, even for 4S, is not as compatible on Verizon as it is with AT&T. Please help!  

    Not sure about the random contact name problem. I suspect a bad database. Use iTunes to delete and replace your contacts with a good list. If that doesn't work, do a 100% software reset and don't restore a backup, setup as a new device. Finally, if that fails go back to the apple store. The issue is not software fixable and the unit should be replaced.
    The other issue with 1 dialing required... are you roaming? Disable wifi, should say Verizon 3G in the status bar.
    When you are off your home area cell network, you are not dealing with Verizon directly.
    Edit: your last question about using a Verizon 4S on AT&T's network. You are correct, out of the box the Verizon 4S is locked to only work on Verizon's network. The AT&T 4S and Sprint 4S have the same locks. You can purchase an unlocked iPhone directly from apple. I've also heard of people convincing Sprint customer service to unlock their phones for use out of the country,

  • How do I add the names of my contacts to my text messages?

    I can send and receive text messages just fine.  My contact list is intact.  When I receive a text there is no contact information with the text.  How do I get names to appear with the message?

    Hello there, harley57078.
    The following Knowledge Base article provides some great steps that help when an application isn't functioning as expected or quits unexpectedly.
    With the "Restart" step, make sure you go through and close all applications that are running. If after performing the "Restart" step, you find the issue persists, try the reset portion of the instructions:
    iOS: An app you installed unexpectedly quits, stops responding, or won’t open
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1702
    If the issue continues unresolved, you may want to follow these instructions:
    Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes

  • How do I get a picture of a contact on my text messaging home screen? So there picture comes up next to the text message on the main screen where you can see all of your texts, if anyone knows what I mean

    Picture of contact on side of text messaging view.

    See McAfee support to find out how to disable that McAfee feature - that isn't part of the normal Firefox installation.

  • How do you know who in contacts can receive text messages on iPad?

    I upgraded my iOS to 5 on my original iPad. Now I have messaging. However, I have no idea who in my 300 contacts have signed up.  Some apps have a way of searching your contacts or Facebook friends to see if they have access to certain games like Words with Friends...  Is there a way to determine who in my list of contacts that I can now send text messages to?  iPad uses apple id (email) and iPhones, use their cellphone, but when I created these contacts, I had no idea if they had an iPhone or later upgraded to one, but kept the same tel #.

    You are right. It's just inconvenient to go through them one at a time. Then a month from now to try to remember which of their email addresses was the one for their apple id or hmmm,.. Was it one of their phone #'s that I sent it to. We need an app!  Remember AIM instant messaging, and you had a list of active participants? We need something like that, because just looking at a phone#, it could be an iPhone or not...

  • I can't send a contact card through text messaging?

    everyrtime i try to send a cantact card through text messaging the message never goes through. i have all of the message setting set properly, sms, mms, imessage,etc are all on. it there another setting that i am missing?

    You can't send a contact over SMS on any phone. If you send it as a normal text message, it will go as an MMS if you have that service enabled. You can send contacts to other iMessage users if your have a WiFi or cellular data connection.
