Text Message Audio Attachment

Hi all,
My friend recently sent me a text message with an audio attachment that she recorded on her phone (not an iPhone). My iPhone plays it fine, it just comes up as a Quicktime movie/file with no other options besides playing and pausing. Is there any way I can get this file onto my computer? I've poked around using Google, but I haven't found anything yet that seems helpful.
Thanks!

Thought I'd bump this thread as I was about to ask the exact same thing. Thanks...

How do I restore deleted text message photo attachments?

I deleted a group of text messages with attached photos by mistake from my iPhone 5. After doing a restore from my most recent backup, the text messages are restored, but many of the photos only show a file name. The files are primarily jpegs along with a few .png and .mov. Should I try to do another backup and restore or is there another way to get back the missing photos?

As we know, every time you sync iDevice with iTunes, it will automatically make a backup of your iDevice contents including photos, SMS, reminders, contacts and more. Therefore, as long as you have ever synced your iPhone with iTunes, you can recover deleted text messages from iPhone. Do not connect your iPhone to iTunes again until the messages are recovered with iPhone Data Recovery. Otherwise, the old backup file will be overwritten by the current content on your iPhone. Once it happens, the deleted messages will be gone forever.

How do you move text messages from contact to contact

Recently a friend of mine changed their phone number so I removed their old number and put in their new one. The text messages that I received from them before this change is now labeled as the the old number. I have 2 questions:
1. Is it possible to move text messages from that old number to this new one?
2. Can I put the old number under the contact but label it "old number"? If so, when I text in that screen again will it go to the old number or the new one?
Thanks

Just my 2 cents...
1) As far as I know, those text messages are attached to THAT phone number. There is no way to assign them to another number.
2) You could certainly add the number as another number for your friend. This would atleast TITLE that thread, so you knew who the conversation was with. However, again, those texts and that THREAD is tied to that "old" phone number. Therefore, if you reply in that thread, the messages are going to be sent to the old number.
I would just recommend adding the number to the contact, so you have it labled if you forget who it was or something, but then just start a new thread with the friend?!..

How do I save an audio file to my phone that was sent through a text message attachment

How do I save an audio file that was sent via a text message to my phone so that I can use it as a ring tone

try searching in the App store for something that will do that. You can't do that natively.

How do I save all mp3 files as an attachable file in text messaging on a G'z One Commando? Some mp3 save as these types of files but I don't how or what I do differently.

In summary, it sounds to me as though the Mac concept of "hidden extension per file" isn't embraced at all by Photoshop.
So assuming the extension is always visible, what is the easiest way do each of the following (ignoring issues with integration with other apps):
1. Save a JPEG as: abc.jpg
2. Save a JPEG as: abc
3. Save a JPEG as: abc.
4. Save a JPEG as: abc.xxx
Since it seems to me we still haven't nailed down whether there's a disparity between how this works on Photoshop for Mac vs. PC, I'll answer the above questions for PC:
1. File - Save As, choose Format: JPEG, type (replace filename with): abc
2. No difference than 3 on a PC.
3. File - Save As, choose Format: JPEG, type: abc.
4. File - Save As, choose Format: JPEG, type: abc.xxx
How is it different from the above on a Mac?
Is there something more complex, such as the sequence of operations, or another system setting, that I didn't cover here? I normally always keep Explorer set so that file extensions are visible (it's global on a PC).

Can sounds be attached to text messages?

Have HTC Trophy with Mango update, love it.
Can sounds be attached to a picture text message?
Thanks.

Good afternoon Mpippa,
Although the HTC Trophy does have some great features currently you're unable to add an audio file to an outgoing picture message. Thanks for Ruling the Air with Verizon Wireless.

I dont' see the camera to enable attachment of pictures to text messages anymore, any suggestions?

I'm trying to attach a photo to a text message and the little camera icon is not there anymore. I've tried to reboot the phone and checked the settings but I'm missing something. Any suggestions?

Is DATA turned on ? Verizon makes you have data turned on to send/receive media via text. To use only wifi, send the media via email like with a Gmail acount.

Since the software update my photo from LinkedIn now is attached to all of my text messages and I DO NOT WANT THAT. How do I remove my photo from my test messages?

Anyone know how to remove your own picture that is now attached to all text messages? Since the software update (assume KitKat) my LinkedIn photo is now attached to all my text messages and I never set that up, nor can I figure out how to remove it!

Help! It is driving me crazy. Thank you.

Thanks, but this information was not useful. First it was outdated (2012 and the software is 2013/2104) in the Settings/Apps/All section there was no "Text Messaging" icon. Under "Phone/Messaging" the clear cache was not possible, it was not available, an active option.
VERIZON/GOOGLE - I am still hoping to learn how to remove my photo from my text messages - why is this so difficult? Why is something like this added without my permission or at my request? May be a reason to jump ship to iOS.

LG Ally - sending text message with pic AND audio *2 attachments on one message*

I can send an audio file via text message... I can send a picture via text message but for the life of me I CANNOT figure out how to send a pic with audio via text message and it's driving me crazy!
Does anyone know how to do this?

It order to send a picture and sound in the same message, once you have entered the Create Message step, you choose Insert Slideshow instead of Picture. When you insert a slideshow, you will have the ability to add both a picture and sound file in the same message.
Hope this helps!

Kolyei, sorry for the late reply.
Have your brother create a contact in his phone for himself. Inside his own contact, have him add his phone number and his iCloud address.
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive Have your brother select both his phone number and email addresses where he would like to receive iMessages.

I got a text message which had a link attached to it, i did click on the link, basically some job scam but on the link. Now i just want to find out if my phone has been compromised in anyway and what are the tell tell signs.

your phone has not been compromised. There have been no viruses, worms or trojan horses ever reported.

After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books. Also I can't edit and copy multiple text messages.

After I updated my iPhone 5 to iOS7 I can no longer see the individual chapters when playing my audio books. Also I can no longer edit a and copy multiple text messages like before. Is there a way to do these things I am missing?

Not only can i not see the individual chaptes -- apparently like you and everyone else suffering through the "improved" iOS7 -- when my audiobook repeats a "file" within chapter, which it sometimes does, I cannot get "inside" the chapter and move forward to where I'm supposed to be.
Whatever happened to "if it ain broke.......???

Text message to email sent as attachment instead of in email body

I used to have this problem before with my iPhone 4, but it seemed to go away. Now, with the lates OS update it's back again. When I send a text message to my wife's Gmail it arrives as a text file attachment to the email instead of just normal text in the email body.
I use Verizon, and the source of the email is @vzwpix.com. I know that there is also @vtext.com, but in the past it hasn't mattered which one was used.
Any ideas?

If you try reading other posts here about attachments and such you may get a hint. It sounds like all email programs would work fine if people just sent plain text. Problems arise when we use RTF (rich text format) and HTML. Possibly the original email you received had formatted text. My guess is that if you forced that text into plain text then it would be readable by all. This is the reason that only some people have trouble with the forwarded text. It depends on their email client or even on settings of that client.
Good luck.

How do I disable audio messages in text messages?

I am trying to disable the audio message option in text messages/iMessages. I have sent several accidentally and would prefer not to have this option. Do you know of a way to remove the ill-placed microphone button, as I can't image ever using this? Thanks.

'''File|Save As|File''' then in the resulting dialogue, choose "text" file type when saving. Of course in doing so you lose all formatting and attachments.
How do you search and index messages when saved as independent and free-standing text files? I keep email correspondence within the email client specifically because the tools to manage and search are effective and efficient. In fact I occasionally email myself something that needs to be preserved simply because as email it is so easy and convenient to find and retrieve. Searching for text in documents in Windows has become a chore.
I'm not at all sure why you want to open email messages from other environments in Thunderbird, only to save them as text files. But have you tried "Edit As New" to see if that will offer other save options?
What format(s) are these other messages from outlook, gmail, windows live saved in then?
Don't forget simple old select all, copy and paste to save message content in any other document type.
