Texts disappear from screen

Hope someone can help. For some reason, my text screen states "No entries in this view". If a search a contact, their dialogue of texts appear. I only see texts if a search a specific contact. I went to my carrier and they are unable to fix. They want me to buy a IPhone. Help......why did my texts disappear from view? I can send texts and they are not in view. I have no way of receiving text unless I search for a contact.

I found a solution here:

[SOLVED] Text disappearing in GTK applications

Here's a screenshot of what I'm describing: http://i.imgur.com/chJ1V.png
Text disappears from labels, lists, textboxes and tooltips. I've noticed I can copy and paste text from GTK textboxes into Qt applications but if I copy text from one GTK textbox to another it still won't appear. When typing in a textbox I'll be able to see it (most of the time) but then one keystroke will make the whole text disappear, pressing backspace does not make it reappear.
Also, some text reappears when reducing the size of a list horizontally: http://imgur.com/a/LvBJ1 -- Increasing the width causes more text to disappear.
I can't seem to find any solution through google and I don't think it's a font issue since I'm having no problems with Qt applications.
Any ideas on what the problem could be? Thanks

This issue is also occurring in terminal emulators that use vte or vte3. This includes Lilyterm, Sakura, etc (you can see the list under VTE-Based Terminals in the list of Common Applications on the Arch Wiki.
I wanted to point this out because I don't use any GTK applications, hopefully this should be helpful for lilyterm users who are searching for this issue.
Also, updating to [testing] didn't work for me. Downgrading to xorg-server 1.12.1-1 works for now

Desktop files disappeared from displaying on the Desktop

My existing Desktop files disappeared from displaying on the Desktop--the files still exist, and newly added files appear on the Desktop; I did not enter any "hide my files" command. How do I have them display? Running OS X Yosemite 10.10.2

Do a backup.
Go to Finder and select your user/home folder. With that Finder window as the front window, either select Finder/View/Show View options or go command - J. When the View options opens, check ’Show Library Folder’. That should make your user library folder visible in your user/home folder. Select Library. Then go to Preferences/com.apple.finder.plist and com.apple.desktop.plist. Move the .plists to your desktop.
Re-launch Finder by restarting the computer and test. If it works okay, delete the plists from the desktop.
If the same, return the .plists to where you got it from, overwriting the newer one.

TS2516 Why does text disappear from some of the pages? No matter what I do, to include reviewing spelling, the text will disappear in preview mode.

Why does text disappear from the pages in my iPhoto book project? When I try to buy the book, it comes up with spelling errors (which are names that the dictionary doesn't recognize), but even after clicking "ignore", the text disappears when I preview the book. Even this is inconsistent because the same words appear on other pages. There is text on other pages that disappear for no apparent reason. This has become very frustrating and time consuming.

Are you previewing using this method? http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2486

TextArea and TextInput on mobile device the text disappears and works fine on desktop

I'm developing a mobile app with a view that contains 1 Text Area, 1 Text Input and a group of 3 buttons. The app runs well in Desktop mode ( Run & Debug ), but when run in an android device ( Sony Tablet S) when the view is loaded, the text (text property set at design or runtime) "flashes" and disappear, if I change the device orientation of the tablet (phisically) the text draws correctly and don't disappear, even if you return to the original orientation. Also, if I pop-up a message (SkinnablePopUpContainer) in the same view, the text appears, and when I close the pop-up the text disappears again.
Is this an identified bug ? ... is there a workaround ? ... I tried to set visible property to false and true and sometimes it works and sometimes not at random.
Thank you for you help.

UPDATE : if I set Focus=true the text appears. I think that the text should be there even if I don't set focus.
This simple code when run in the device (Sony Tablet S) doesn't work as expected ... ( the text in the textbox dissapears, and if you change orientation appeears).

Text disappearing from CS4 text frame.

I work in a studio environment with multiple computers/users sharing files from the same server. Occassionally when I (or another user) opens an InDesign CS4 file there will be text missing from one or more text frames. The frame is still there, but it is empty. If I close the file without saving and then re-open it, the text may re-appear in that frame, but text may be missing from a different frame, or no text will be missing at all – seemingly a completely random occurrance. We have tried to resolve whether this happens with missing/conflicting fonts, but there seems to be no correlation. The problem is not repeatable, but happens at least once a month. We cannot narrow down any ther common denominators within the files.
We run Mac Pros and iMacs, OS X 10.5.8 or later, InDesign Creative Suite 4, Suitcase Fusion 2 and we are running a Windows Server (sorry, no other details on that).
Any help or suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks for the advice, folks.
I have hidden text enabled and there is nothing in the frame. These are standalone frames – not linked to any other frames, so it wouldn’t seem to be a re-flow issue. My gut is telling me that it’s font-related, as we have MANY font conflicts between computers, however the issue sometimes occurs without the “Missing Fonts” alert appearing upon opening.
Suitcase Fusion 2… Unfortunately that may be the culprit. Yet another reason to not like that product, unfortunately. I will research that line of reasoning and report back.

Acrobat X Pro makes text disappear from a page when I insert that page into another PDF

I printed a single page Microsoft Project schedule to PDF using Acrobat X Pro. All good. I then inserted that one page into another PDF document using Tools/Insert Pages/Insert from File. Much of the text in the inserted page goes missing after inserting that page into the other PDF document. How do I prevent this disappearing text problem?

Does the inserted page have a lot of markup? I do not think the markup will insert.

Is it possible to download text messages from 3GS to my desktop?

Is there a way to store text messages on my desktop? Also, how do I print them from my iPhone? Thank you

You could copy all the texts, and email them to yourself by opening the email on your mac, but other than that, most likely not possible. To print them, you will have to take screenshots on your iPhone (by holding the home and lock button for 2 seconds, then releasing), then connect your iPhone to your Mac, then take it from there with your printer.

Why is text disappearing from my webpage?

When I insert text in my webpage, the first letter of the first word of each sentence is either incomplete or it not there at all. HOw do I solve this?

You're right. I can now see the layout.
I can avoid the problem by centering all text.
But I am left with the soft grey lines which mark my page and the heavy grey lines which show the layout.
How can I make them identical?

Red number in box disappeared from Mail Icon

The red box that indicates the number of unread mail alongside the Mail icon (in the Dock) has disappeared.
Any ideas?
Power Book G4 Mac OS X (10.4.4)

Just a guess ... I believe that the number reflects the emails in your Inbox. Is it possible that you have filtered stuff into other mailboxes?
