Text messages won't forward since updating to ios 8.1 on 10/20

I updated my iphone 6 on 10/21 to the ios 8.1 and ever since I have not been able to forward texts. I can select texts but the arrow to forward in the bottom right of the screen is gone and it doesn't do anything if I press where it used to be.

If you restored your iPad as new, and it still didn't help, I don't know if anything in here will help. in any event, I have posted this boilerplate of suggestions many times in the past and the suggestions in here have worked for others at one time or another. Feel free to give them a try.
1. Tap the "waiting" icon and see if you can pause it. If it does pause, then tap it again and see if it will resume. If that works, repeat the same steps for each "waiting" icon.
2. Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
3. Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. If you see a downloads tab in the lower right corner, then there is a download in iTunes.
4. If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>iTunes & App Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>iTunes & App Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
5. You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again. Apps may also be able to be deleted in Settings>General>Usage>Storage if you cannot get the X to pop up on the icon.
6. You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered.
7. Reset your router. Unplug it from power for about 30 seconds and then plug it back in again.

TS2755 Message notifications non existent since update to iOS 7.1

Since updating my iphone 4 to iOS 7.1 yesterday when I recieve a message or iMessage it doesn't notify me or make a sound. I have tried resetting the notifications and it still doesn't work? Any help?

Did you try to reset the phone by holding the sleep and home button for about 10sec, until the Apple logo comes back again? You will not lose data by resetting.
If this does not work, set it up as new device, explained here:

Imessages won't send since updating to iOS 6.

The problem started out quite sporadically and now it is completely unable to send messages. Yesterday, 9/26 imessages started out fine then later in the afternoon I started getting not delivered messages on my Ipad. Imessages on my Iphone 4S works fine so far. Both devices were updated to the iOS6.0 system. Has anyone else experienced this bug and is there a fix out there anywhere?

I have an iPhone4 and upgraded to iOS 7.1.
Since then imessage does not work properly on the iPhone4.
iMessage is working on my iPad normally.
I have reset network settings after turning iMessage off.
Turned iMessage back on.
iMessage is activiating and after doing the above.
I have also turned the phone off (Held home and power buttons for 10 seconds etc)
Other devices cannot reach the phone using iMessage.
My local Brisbane Apple store said last Friday evening it was most likely not the device and there was a problem in the 'cloud' side of iMessage out of my control.
This does not seem to be the case as I search for the thousands of people this would most likely affect.
I had a brief period where it appeared to work normally a few days ago.
Inerestingly when addressing a message in the 'To:' screen iMessage capable names come up blue as if they are about to be addressed and sent as an imessage. Once selecting the name however it turns green as if to say this will be sent as a text.
I am at a loss at what to do. The phone was working perfectly well under iOS6x
Thanks

Musicapp, speaker and volume control won't work since updated to iOS 7.1

Since I updated my iPhone 4 to iOS 7.1 my iPhone works faster than iOS 7. But some apps like musicapp, youtube have no volume control and the speakers won't work. When somebody call me the iPhone rings normally. I tried turn off bluetooth because I thought the iPhone will conect to my car. I pressed the lock and homebutton for reseting, I deletetet my whole iPhone and installed iOS7.1 again - nothing changed. Only when i plug in my earphones everything will work as normal.

Since updating to iOS 6 my phone has not been receiving text messages from some people. Already contacted my service provider and apparently nothing's wrong on their end. Any suggestions?

Do you use iTunes with your iPad and if so, have you tried syncing your iPad with iTunes since you updated the iOS?

160gb ipod classic won't sync since update to 11.2.2, system wants to wipeout all current info on device

same has happened to me, on and off, for the last 6 months. Its an issue with the Mavericks system and ipod classics. works great for a while - then one day for no reason - erases the entire iPod. some days the copmputer will not recognize the iPod and you have to start over. Apple will tell you that "you" may have a disc problem in the device. that is all the help I have received.

Is it possible for sms text messages to be forwarded from one iPhone to another

Hi I'm looking for a bit of help please? Is it possible for sms text messages to be forwarded from one iPhone to another without the use of such app as mysms or google voice as neither of these seem to work. Apple sugested that my network provider can usually assist in such maters with a few simple setting there end. Does anyone have previous experience in these matters. Thanks Matt.

Do you mean forward them automatically?
As you can manually forward any SMS or iMessage to any number you want directly from the iOS Messages app.

Bluetooth won't discover my iPad2 since updating to iOS 8.2. Have tried hard reboot and restoring.

I have an iPad 2. I use a ZAGG keyboard with it. Since updating to iOS 8, my Bluetooth cannot discover my iPad, so I can't use the keyboard. I updated to iOS 8.2 hoping this would fix the problem. It didn't. I have done several hard reboots following online directions, didn't work. Tried restoring the iPad, didn't work. Is there something else I can do?

FWIW, my Zagg KB works well with my iPAD 2 (IOS 8.1). To my knowledge, there is no 8.2.....
Be sure BT is on. Turn the Zagg KB on. Go to the system area (Bluetooth). Press the connect button on the Zagg. Highlight the device. It should connect.

Since updating to IOS 6, my autolock is not work if I end the session in Messages, Notes Or Calendar. What's up

IMessage cc's to sender since updating to iOS 6.1

Since updating to iOS 6.1 every time I send an iMessage it gets delivered to the intended recipient, but a copy also comes back to me. I have checked every setting I can think of and nothing is turned on to copy messages to myself. This does not happen when I send a SMS text message. I have tried resetting the phone. I created a back-up in iTunes and did a factory restore and the problem persists.
Very frustrating

Tell whoever is using your Apple ID for iMessage to uncheck your number in Settings > Messages > Send & Received

Since updating the IOs platform pop up advertising is appearing everywhere how do i stop it?

Since updating the IOs platform pop up advertising is appearing everywhere how do i stop it?

You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of today, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
/Library/LaunchDaemons
In the Finder, select
          Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
          com.something.daemon.plist
and
           com.something.helper.plist
Here something is a variable word, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes the word is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
/Library/LaunchAgents
In this folder, there may be a file named
          com.something.agent.plist
where the word something is the same as before.
If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
Open this folder:
/Library/Application Support
If it has a subfolder named just
           something
where something is the same word you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
Finally, in this folder:
/System/Library/Frameworks
there may an item named exactly
            v.framework
It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
          Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
or
          Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
if it's not already checked.
