Text as Emails

Hello!
When I send a text message I always thought it was coming from my phone.
Many of my friends have been telling me that when a text message comes in on their phone that it is from my e-mail NOT my cell number.
Does anyone know how I can make all my texts messages recieved be from my phone NOT my email?

If it's sent through iMessage, adn they receive it as a iMessage with an caller ID that is your email and not your phone number, this is because in the settings, in Messages, that email is selected as your caller ID.
If it's not that, I don't know.

Can no longer select text in email template or read only field with mouse using IE or Firefox?

Hi Guys,
I can no longer select text in email template or read only field using my mouse in IE or Firefox anymore. We are using CRM 2011 rollup 18 applied with IE 11 and the latest version of Firefox. We only applied roll up 18 in Feb when this issue began.
Thanks

When you have a problem with one particular site, a good "first thing to try" is clearing your Firefox cache and deleting your saved cookies for the site.
(1) Bypass Firefox's Cache
Use Ctrl+Shift+r to reload the page fresh from the server.
(You also can clear Firefox's cache completely using:
orange Firefox button ''or'' Tools menu > Options > Advanced
On the Network mini-tab > Cached Web Content : "Clear Now")
(2) Remove the site's cookies (save any pending work first) using either of these. While viewing a page on the site:
* right-click and choose View Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
* Alt+t (open the classic Tools menu) > Page Info > Security > "View Cookies"
Then try reloading the page. Does that help?
These features rely on JavaScript, and it sounds as though you have scripting enabled if you get (the wrong) color changes. Some add-ons might alter the way scripts operate, so a standard diagnostic to bypass interference by extensions (and some custom settings) is to try Firefox's Safe Mode.
First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [[Backing up your information]]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
Next, restart Firefox in Firefox's Safe Mode ([[Safe Mode]]) using
Help > Restart with Add-ons Disabled
In the dialog, click "Start in Safe Mode."
If those features work correctly, this points to one of your extensions or custom settings as the problem.
To also disable plugins, you can use this page:
orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Add-ons > Plugins category
Any change?

App to convert incoming texts to emails?

Is there an iPhone app (preferably free) that will email all incoming text messages, so I can receive my texts as emails?

haven't found an app yet... still waiting hopefully soon

Highlighting text in emails

Is there anyway to highlight text of emails I receive? I would like to be able to highlight the important sections in some the very wordy emails I get, so I go back to read them, I don't have to reread the whole thing!
Thanks for your help!

How could I suggest this to Apple?

Regarding receiving texts as emails: Can you apply this setting to one individual? I want to continue to receive texts from everyone else except one person!

Don't want to block the person, just have all his texts going directly to my email so that I can maintain a continuous record of his text contacts (rather than remain in text form).
It appears that I must select an option that makes ALL texts go to email, which I'd prefer not doing.

Different Ringtone Notifications for Text and Email

I would like to assign different ringtone notifications for texting and email, and if possible, different ringtones for each of my two email accounts. I need to see texts immediately, but not emails. Am picking up the phone 50 times a day so I don't miss a text, critical to my work. Could do this on Bb Storm, but can't figure out on Incredible. At a minimum, I would like to shutoff notification for email, and just get pinged for texts. Thanks!!

Well,
The default notification tone that you set in the Settings->Sound is for the default tone in the generic e-mail account and all other notifications. If you use the Gmail client, you can set your own personal ringtone in it's settings (Menu->Settings). In the messaging Application you can also set a custom notification sound from there as well (Menu->Settings)
As for different e-mail accounts using the same e-mail application, I don't think that is possible with the in stock app...tho I am not totally sure I haven't use it like that before.
Hope that helps!

Text and email sound notifications...........no options?

Incredible2 is my first smart phone so maybe I'm missing something here. Can't I customize the text and email alerts with my own sound or am I stuck with the options that are on the phone? Even with the volume turned up all the way I can't hear any alert unless the phone is out of my pocket and sitting right next to me. Any suggestions?

You can set a custom ringtone for text messages, email, gtalk, gmail, etc. by going into each app, press the menu button and select settings. There will be an option to change the ringtone.
For your own custom ringtones, place the mp3 or audio files in the following on the sd card. The "SD carddrive" is the root of the sd card or drive letter when it is plugged into the computer.
SD carddrive:\media\audio\ringtones
SD carddrive:\media\audio\notifications
SD carddrive:\media\audio\alarms
Once the files are in those folders, the phone will automatically found the files and list them in the ringtone selection list. You might have to reboot the phone to force a rescan of the sd card.

Why can't I set my downloaded .dm ringtones as text and email notifications?

I have an HTC Incredible 2; I paid for and downloaded several ringtones from the Verizon store, two of which I wanted to specifically use as the text and email notification sounds. I then had the already discussed problem of not being able to find the newly downloaded ringtones immediately, but from the postings on here and the Adriod forums, I followed the directions to set up the folders titled Ringtones, Notifications, and Alarms on my sdcard, and moved the downloaded ringtones into their respective folders. When I opened up the Personalize menu, under Sounds I was immediately able to find the ringtones I'd placed in the ringtone folder, but my phone wouldn't recognize the ringtons I'd placed in the Notifications folder.
I downloaded the app Zedge, downloaded specific Notification sounds (.mp3, and they work). I also downloaded .mp3 ringtones and then moved them into the Notifications folders, and THAT worked. The problem seems to be that these are .dm files? Is my phone unable to read .dm files as Notification sounds? Or is there something I missed? Something else I can do?
I looked all over for software that will convert .dm files to .mp3, found a suggestion calling for the deletion of a couple of the lines of code from within the .dm file using Notebook ++, but that didn't work. I don't remember seeing anywhere in the store that these ringtone files come in the protected .dm filetype; that many players will not be able to play them, and that I won't be able to use them for notification sounds?
Ay one have any suggestions? Verizon: am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance for any help.

Usually when you purchase ringtones from the Verizon store, you can only use them as ringtones. Since you have a smartphone, an app would be the best bet. You can find almost any song you're looking for in a free ringtone app, there's no need to purchase them.

Why am I all of a sudden getting all my text and email notifications in Spanish? How do I switch back to English? I can't find that option in profile or notification settings . . .

elliew,
That's a great point! If all other messages and apps on your phone are in English, the preferred language may need to be updated on your account. If this is the case for any of our customers, just reach out to our customer support team at 800-922-0204 or http://vz.to/1vsIHJq .

My ringer is no longer working for text and email notifications. Only working for phone calls. I have gone through all the settings to see where something is off. Not finding anything. I have tried changing the tone and it just vibrates on everything.

Ok so I happened to figure it out while on the phone to apple support. Even though the guy was very nice, I think I knew more than him! He was explaining very basic resolution principles I played about. I had the second option in displays resolution. All I did was unplug the HDMI cable, click on 'best for display' then plugged the HDMI in and my resolution on the normal monitor changed to the normal blue, then went black momentarily and then changed to a strange resolution but another window appeared that said SONY BRAVIA HDMI at the top! Hey presto! Don't know why it didn't do it yesterday - I probably left the HDMI cable in or something! Oh well. Problem solved!

Is there any way to turn off text and email notifications during phone calls?

The notification is very annoying when I am on a call. The person I am speaking to can hear when I get a text or email. Please help!

It should but I haven't tested all types of alerts yet. If it doesn't you can contact them. I contacted them about 3 weeks ago mentioning that it would be wonderful if they were able to add the mute feature during calls. They responded right away and said they'd work on it. I got an email from them earlier today letting me know about the new update. I have to say, that's what I call service! And I don't see any other App quite like theirs.

Receiving text and email notifications while on call

While I'm on a call, I receive text and email notifications (by a sound and a buzz). Is there a way to shut this off, as it's annoying when there are multiple messages coming through.

Sure; go to settings > sounds and set "new text" and "new VM" to off.
Of course this turns them off ALL the time; your only choice ( I am sure there is a hack for this oversight out there somewhere, though)
This is not a business class smartphone ; its an iPhone.

When someone texts my email address it no longers shows up as an email, only a imessage, how do I stop that from happening?

when someone texts my email address it no longers shows up as an email in my inbox, only as a imessage, how do I stop that from happening? I do not use imessage at all.

This is not something on your end. If they send an iMessage it will arrive as an iMessage, if the send an email it will arrive as an email.
THey are sepearate services that cannot be mixed up.
Tell them to send you an email, rather than an iMessage.
If they are using the messages App it will always arrive as a Message.

Is there a way to prevent Itunes' volume from lowering when I receive texts and email?

Whenever I have my iphone connected to a speaker, the volume lowers when I receive a text or email. This can be very frustrating and I'm wondering if there is a setting to prevent this from happening. Can anyone help?

Put your phone in silent mode, or enable do not disturb.

Using Mavericks Spelling and Grammar in Pages document causes Pages to freeze. Must Force Quit. Mavericks spell checker works OK in Text and Emails. How can I fix this problem?

Using Mavericks' Spelling and Grammar in a Pages document causes Pages to freeze, Must Force Quit. How can I fix this problem?
Mavericlks Spelling and Grammar works in Pages when used manually. And it works automatically in Text and email.

Another autocorrect bug:
I type a lot of lyrics, which tend to cotain words like ’cause and ’em instead of because and them.
I've set up autocorrect instances to change a plain apostrophe with an ending, single curly quote for these words, but they are invariably changed to a beginning, single curly quote mark by Pages. The only way I can get the correct curly quote is to type over the wrong quote manually and hope that I don't have to edit the rest of the word again, as this would cause autocorrect to kick in again and change the quote to the wrong, beginning curly mark again.
Does anyone know how to get around this tedious problem?

Is there a way that you can have two different text fields (email, phone) that one at least one of them must be completed before submitting the form? Can it be done using javascript in the validation tab? if so, how?

Is there a way that you can have two different text fields (email, phone) that one at least one of them must be completed before submitting the form? Can it be done using javascript in the validation tab? if so, how?

Here is one solution:
// mouse up action for submit button;
function GetField(cName) {
// get field object for cName field with error checking;
var oField = this.getField(cName);
if(oField == null) app.alert("Error accessing field named " + cName + "\nPleae verigy field name, spelling and capitalizeation.", 1, 0);
return oField;
} // end GetField function;
var oPhone = GetField("phone");
oPhone.required = oPhone.value == oPhone.defaultValue;
var oEmail = GetField("email");
oEmail.required = oEmail.value == oEmail.defaultValue;
if(oPhone.required && oEmail.required) {
app.alert("Missing required fields.", 1, 0);
} else {
app.alert("Submitting form", 3, 0);
// additional code for submission;
