SMS and Notes Gone!

Hello,
I just got my iPhone 4 and I can't transfer my SMS history or notes to this new phone and I really need them. I've tried to restore from a certain backup that has my notes and SMS history but it will not transfer. I've even checked to make sure they are still on those previous backups using MobileSyncBrowser and I can view my notes and tests there. Does anyone have any suggestions as to how I can transfer these? I really need help and thank you all in advance for any assistance!

Hmm alright well what you could try is going into the messages folder and press the menu button and press options, go to inbox settings and make sure that SMS is not checked. That should give you a separate sms inbox.
In order to get your notes back, first check the applications list in options - applications or options - advanced options - applications, check for notes in the core and addon sections if it is not listed then we will have to install if from the device software.
1. Go to blackberry.com and download the desktop software
2. go to google type in " your carrier name blackberry device software" and download the device software for the 9630
3. once you have downloaded and installed both softwares then open up the desktop manager and go to applications, there should be a list of items loaded up and then you will need to look for notes or memopad and then install that to your blackberry.
hope that works, let us know what happens

Will I lose my sms and notes if I upgrade to 6.0.1

I have an iPhone 4 which currently is running on iOS 6. Will I lose my sms and notes if I upgrade to iOS 6.0.1? Other things I am not worried about. SMS is a must. Please suggest a wayout.

If you are updating from iOS 6, you won't lose data. However, you must make an iTunes or iCloud backup before updating in case the update fails and you have to restore the iPhone

If I turn off iMessages on my iphone 5 and only use SMS, I am hoping this will this stop ALL my messages going to partners ipad? I only want 2 use SMS and not have any of my messages go to partners ipad so dont want to alter ipad settings.

My situtation is this, my soon to be ex previously set up an ipad with both our numbers and we share a linked itunes/icloud account so if my phone is off he gets all my messages via his ipad that I DO NOT have access to his ipad at ALL. I can't set up my own itunes account (not yet until I leave him) otherwise he will know I am leaving him and it will cause major problems. So I was hoping that if I turn off iMessages on my iphone 5 and just talk to my family via SMS and NOT touch his precious ipad mini, that he wont be able to get my messages anymore and if I turn off iCloud storage and back up as well on my iphone only. Is this correct? Its just a temporary solution I am hoping. I have searched for days and hours and I just cant find this answer anywhere....
Do I HAVE to turn off my phone number off or delete it on his ipad? I am really hoping I can just do this at my own end and not touch his ipad in anyway or have to change my itunes id YET. Once I leave him shortly, I will create a whole new ID etc. I just wanna know if I can do this myself on my iphone only. Please any experienced help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you so very much.

SMS messages will not go to the iPad Mini. It's not capable of receving them. If you have access and can do it without it causing a problem, remove your iPhone from the Apple ID Support profile:
Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
Log in if not already logged in.
Click on "Edit Products"
Click on the "X" to the right of the product.
Click "Unregister"
If anyone in your family uses iMessage, they will go to both you and your boyfriend unless you do that.
To be completely safe, you may want to simply use an alternate message app such as Skype, Viber, Whatsapp (assuming everyone has a smartphone) until the issue is resolved. Google Voice will also allow you to send and receive texts to another number on your phone.
Best of luck.

SMS and Notes apps gone?

hi all, im hoping you might be able to help me. after updating OS, both the notes and SMS icons do not appear in either my home page, or the applications page(or folder). incoming SMS texts show up in my messaging folder, but i used to have a separate icon for this function.
how can i find the icons, so i can move them to the home page? the search function doesnt actually show where they are. thanks!

Is there any way to recover sms and notes lost after ugrading to OS4

Hi there,
I've upgraded my iP3GS to OS4 this morning, selected the backup option before starting the upgrade. Everything seemed to go perfectly well but, after the whole process was completed, I noticed that all my sms, notes, photos and contacts had been wiped out. The only backups appearing on iTunes are dated just after the upgrade. I managed to get my contacts back but still haven't figured out how to recover my texts, notes and photos? Seems that lots of people had the same issue when upgrading to OS4 but couldn't find a satisfactory answer on the forum so far. Any ideas? Many thanks in advance for your help! I had 2 years of sms and pictures there I'd really like to get back!

They should be in your backup that was done before the update. Restore again with your backup.

All calendar events and notes gone

All of my calendar events and notes have been erased. I don't know why. I really needed them! If anyone has any ideas about recovering them, I'd be very grateful. Thanks!

The only calendar listed is "birthdays," which appeared a while ago after I had downloaded the Facebook app and had all the birthdays of my Facebook friends. I never even wanted that calendar, so I had deselected it and had all my events on a different calendar. The other calendar is gone altogether and even the birthday one is blank. All of my notes are gone, too, and the books in my iBooks library all say cannot find the source. This is all since I installed the latest ios update. :/

How to force recieving SMS (and not iMessages) when Phone is offline, with iPads onlines

Hello,
I've got a peticular problem on a peticular configuration...
At home, on wifi, I use my iPad to write iMessages on the large screened-keyboard. iMessages are sent back to both my iPad, but to my iPhone too (that I've always on my pocket so use to read the messages I've recieved; I usually don't use the iPad to read them as not always using it...).
But on my iPhone, I don't want to use the cellular data. So when I go out, my phone send SMS to others (as offline); no problem there.
But others are sending iMessages to me as my iPads are online! And I've got the messages only once I'm back on wifi X-C!!!
Is there a way to have all the advantages? A way to do as if iPads were offline once my iPhone is (as if the phone were the "master" and the tablet the "slave"), and that would force SMS to be sent to me as my iPhone is offline even if my iPad are online?
Up by now I turn the wifi off once I go out, but it's boring and sometimes I do forget and miss important messages...
Thx in advance for your help :-D

I don't keep the phone plugged in and it's literally just sitting there, not doing anything. I don't use anything like Pandora that would keep the Wi-Fi. I do everything at home like I do at work.
- Cellular data off
- Wi-Fi on
- Not plugged in
- Leave it alone on the desk
When I get an email in Outlook, the phone instantly vibrates, sometimes before it even shows up in Outlook. At home, it's just dead.
I guess I could reword my question a bit. If the behavior I'm experiencing at home is normal, then logically, the behavior I'm experiencing at work is abnormal. So then, does anyone know about wireless networks who might know what's causing this? I don't imagine I'll be able to replicate it at home since the gear I use at work is a lot fancier. I'm an IT professional and I know quite a bit about networking, but I'm very ignorant of wireless technology.
Since I don't have data service on my current service plan, Wi-Fi is my only avenue for accessing the Internet. It certainly make sense that a signal would come from the cellular network and wake Wi-Fi up to get the rest of the data, so thanks for shedding light on that.

I want to text my friend using SMS and not iMessage. How can do this on 7.0.3?

My friend has a iPhone with no data bit he has iMessage linked to his mobile number. When I try to text him via SMS it sends it via iMessage. How can I change this without shutting off iMessage? I did the send and then hold down the text boble on 7.0.2 but on 7.0.3 it's no longer there.

Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears. DONT CONNECT YOUR DEVICE TO A COMPUTER.

To my knowledge, I've only seen this for imessage only and not SMS.
The other users would need to have send read receipts enabled on their phone.

Having horrible service with 4GLTE I have had 3G for several weeks (I am not the only person I know having this problem), I have reset my network settings and it did not resolve the issue. I am also unable to send SMS and text messages without them eithe

Having horrible service with 4GLTE I have had 3G for several weeks (I am not the only person I know having this problem), I have reset my network settings and it did not resolve the issue. I am also unable to send SMS and text messages without them either failing or not sending at all. Is there an outage in the Cleveland, Ohio area (zip codes 44129, 44134, 44137) or anything else I can do to resolve this issue?

Not that I'm a Verizon employee, but I have experience in the field. An LTE tower will only extend up to, on a perfect day, with no elevation, 6-7 miles. On a typical day, you will be lucky at four (4) miles. The three ZIP codes you've given are all within about a 12 mile radius. That would mean that 2-3 towers are currently down at the same time, and Verizon would know about it within the hour. Being it's Cleveland, I'm sure they would receive numerous calls regarding an outage of that size.
My point is that if you're having issues in all three ZIP codes, chances are it's a phone issue. If you're handset is simply not receiving LTE, but still receiving 3G, that would signify a SIM card issue. You need to get your SIM card replaced.

I have obsolete computers attached to my appleid when I try to add the new computers to my itunes store and purchases to keep all data updated and together....and not have to repurchase. I had a fire...thus, old computers are gone and I cannot unauthoriz

I have obsolete computers and devices attached to my appleid. I cannot deauthorize them as they are gone!!! (Had a fire and had to replace all tech systems) Because I spent alot of monies on my purchases, it would be nice to be able to combine all these items and not have to repurchase them. How can I update the current number of computers and correct ipods, ipads and iphones together; and get rid of all old computers and ipods, iphones that are authorized under the appleid I have always used. I have asked this question before, but received no support or answers. I do have icloud and mobileme, but cant sychonize them either.
I am also seriously considering purchasing a mac, and no longer using the windows pc\s as too many tech difficulties arise when I tackle complicated projects regarding DVD and moving making. However, I still require pc software for my work. Will my current backup network system convert easily? Can it be converted? Will I require a tech and if so, how much will this cost? I have recently invested a large sum into creating a network and backup system that has yet to be working as it should. Unfortuneately it has left me with very little left to try to convert to the mac systems entirely. Please answer my questions in a language that I can understand.....as this problem is affecting my household, organization and office techniques. Would like to take care of this problem once and for all. Mac seems to work with my creative desires much better. Will await your response.....Thank you.

If you no longer have the computer(s) you want to deauthorise,
Log in to iTunes, go to "view your account info" on the itunes store, deauthorise all five, (Please Note: this can only be done Once every 12 months) and then re-authorize your current Computer(s) one at a time.

Email messages from my personal email account are being posted (copied) to SMS messages. I have a new cell device, and this is happening on the new device also. The copy/forward to SMS is NOT being initiated by my email provider. How do I end this?

Email messages from my personal email account are being posted (copied) to SMS messages. I have a new cell device (swtched from Droid to iPhone) and this is happening on the new device also. The copy/forward to SMS is NOT being initiated by my email provider, and not by Gmail. How do I end ûVerizon's forwarding my personal email to SMS?
Thanks.

Maybe I'm missing something but how can Verizon have control over your personal GMail account? Sounds like you do have your email set up to forward to sms.
I have certain emails that are forwarded to me as SMS but that is an option that is enabled on the email side of things and is independent from Verizon.

You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
