Texting to the USA from the UK

I'm not sure where to put this, but, can anyone explain the process of texting to the USA from the UK. Do I need to add anything before the number I'm texting to? If that makes sense.
Also, this person is also only on holiday, therefore with 02, not an American phone.
Thanks.
(Also, what would they need to do to text me?)
Solved!
Go to Solution.

So you are texting a UK phone (thats in the US) from a UK phone (thats in the UK)?
In that case you don't need to do anything, the network will route it automatically.
For texting you back your friend will need to insert the country code before the number. A quick google search will tell you exactly what they need to do.

Dear AppleCare，
As I bought my iPhone 5 16GB,White in the USA from Sprint, full price with tax,unlocked ,it was excepted to be a global phone. But now I come across with some problems in Chinausing local carrier, everything is working properly except sending text message, and iMessage and Facetime also seem not to work.This is very serious for Apple and me! Will I have the chance to fix this?
I tried all the possible solutions from the Internet, and the Official solution offered by Apple (http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4459), but it doesn't seem to work.
Will Apple help me with this issue? Please do.
Information of my iPhone:

IMEI: ****
MEID: ****

I had the same problem. Kept getting message of waiting for activation or check network connections. I also tried every solution out there and nothing worked. This did though: I download the newest version of itunes (through Internet Explorer - Google Chrome wouldn't work). It pulled in my entire library thank goodness and then I plugged my iphone 4s into the computer. I let itunes find it, did a complete backup in icloud, then did a restore. Entire process took a couple of hours, but I now have imessage and facetime back. I was about ready to give up on Apple and go get a different phone ~

I downloaded the new 6 software. Me and my boyfriend share the same iTunes account and now every time I text him I also get a copy of the text sent to my from my number. How do I get that to stop?

How can I separate the "Icons and Text" of the browser control buttons (Back, Forward, etc.) from the Icons on the Add-on toolbar?

At home, this is not an issue. I don't know why it's different here at work--same installation, same settings (as far as I can tell).
Windows Vista
Firefox 7.0.1
Status-4-Evar installed to turn add-on bar into a status bar
I have a NoScript add-on icon in the corner, which works fine. If I add a GreaseMonkey icon from the Customize menu, the "Icon and Text" appears for that icon, like the Icon and Text from the browser controls (Home, stop, etc). Other add-on icons also show Icon and Text (S4E, for instance). NoScript is the only one I've found so far which collapses down to just an Icon.
This leads to the status (add-on) bar having a much larger height than I like. Essentially what I want is for only the Icon to appear in the Status bar (Add-on toolbar), while keeping Icons and Text in the Browser controls. My current workaround is simply removing the other add-on icons from the status (add-on) toolbar, but that takes away the ease of toggling and setting options.
Please tell me if I can provide you with anything else, and thanks for your help.
Edit: I've got some screenshots to show what I mean.
[http://i41.tinypic.com/ftek9s.jpg desired behavior]
[http://i43.tinypic.com/1z6a4h3.jpg problem when icon is added]

Surely there must be some UserChrome.css that will solve this problem. Something like this:
/* Remove text titles for icons in add-on bar */
addonbar .button-text {
visibility: collapse !important;
Unfortunately that does not work. I probably have the button text item name wrong (there is a pound sign before addonbar but it doesn't show in this posting).

After upgrading the new operating system, it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select

After upgrading the new operating system on my Droid Razr M it seems some useful features no longer work such as when typing a message the text anticipates the next word and when trying to delete individual messages from a contact, you can no longer tap and hold to select multiple message you have to delete them individually or the entire thread. Is there a way to get these back?

Well, that's kind of embarrassing. And I honestly thought I paid attention to that... It works perfectly now, thank you so much!
As expected, cdm-git also works fine since DMs only work in the root mode as of now.
Just for the record, both type commands output "/usr/bin/startx" and pacman -Q gives "systemd 215-4".

The problem is with the new operating system and sending photo via email when used in my iPad. From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow.

The problem is with the new operating system and sending photo via email when used in my iPad.
From photo I selected 3 photos to send via email. I choose the upload key and choose to send by email. Typing text on the email is very slow. This is solved by saving the email as a draft and opening the email again from mail.
Can you amend he system to allow emails to be sent from photo as previously.

Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPad?
Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after the iPad shuts down, then press the On/Off button until the Apple logo appears.
Reset: Press the Home and On/Off buttons at the same time and hold them until the Apple logo appears (about 10 seconds). Ignore the "Slide to power off"

How can i AppendText to richTextBox only if the text is new(different) from the text that is already in the richTextBox ?

Code
public void ScrollNews()
listsext.Ext(page);
combindedString = string.Join(Environment.NewLine, ListsExtractions.myList);
richTextBox1.SelectAll();
richTextBox1.SelectionAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Right;
richTextBox1.AppendText(combindedString);
scrollerText = string.Join(Environment.NewLine, ListsExtractions.myListWithoutLinks);
scroller1.TextToScroll = scrollerText;
if (NewsLevels.newsLevel && NewsLevels.shouldStart)
UpdateTextControls();
scroller1.Start();
NewsLevels.shouldStart = false;
if (NewsLevels.newsLevel == false && NewsLevels.shouldStart)
UpdateTextControls();
scroller1.Start();
NewsLevels.shouldStart = false;
string[] rlines = richTextBox1.Lines;
richTextBox1.SelectionStart = 0;
richTextBox1.SelectionLength = rlines[0].Length;
richTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Red;
richTextBox1.Select(rlines[0].Length, rlines[1].Length + 1);
richTextBox1.SelectionColor = Color.Green;
RedColorAlert1();
if (lines == null)
label5.Text = "0";
else
label5.Text = lines.Length.ToString();
The line is:
richTextBox1.AppendText(combindedString);
I'm calling this method ScrollNews every X minutes with a timer.
The way it is now it will AppendText all the time. But i want it to Add the combinededString only if the text in combindedString was different from the text that is already in the richTextBox. Somhow to keep all the time the last text and compare it and
if there is a new text then appen it.

public void Scroll()
listsext.Ext(page);
combindedString = string.Join(Environment.NewLine, ListsExtractions.myList);
richTextBox1.SelectAll();
StringBuilder sb = new StringBuilder();
sb.Append(combindedString);
richTextBox1.SelectionAlignment = HorizontalAlignment.Right;
richTextBox1.AppendText(combindedString);
The problem is that now it will keep adding to the richTextBox the content in combindedString over and over again. I need somehow to check each time if the content in combindedString already exist in the richTextBox if not meaning it's new content then AppendText
it.
If it's the same already exist do nothing don't add it.
EDIT
I write to a text file the content of the ombindedString variable .The first content the lines is the combindedString:

And this is a screenshot i couldnt copy the text of the richTextBox1.Text
richTextBox1.Text content image
co uld be that the format of the text in the combindedString and the richTextBox1.Text looks different so it think it's not exist ?
Update:
Not sure if it's important but the combindedString i'm adding the text to it from the variable ListExtractions.myList
myList is List and i build this List like that:
private void ListToStringList(List<string> myl)
for (int i = 0; i < AllNews.Count; i++)
myl.Add(AllNews[i].text);
IFormatProvider provider = CultureInfo.InvariantCulture;
DateTime myTime = DateTime.ParseExact(AllNews[i].original_time, "DyyMMddTHHmm", provider);
string results = myTime.ToString("HH:mm דווח במקור בתאריך : dd.MM.yy : שעה");
myl.Add(results);
myl.Add(AllNews[i].link);
myl.Add(Environment.NewLine);
myListWithoutLinks.Add(AllNews[i].text);
myListWithoutLinks.Add(results);
myListWithoutLinks.Add(Environment.NewLine);
for (int i = 0; i < myl.Count; i++)
myl[i] = Regex.Replace(myl[i], @"\t|\n|\r", "");
And use it:
ListToStringList(myList);

How do I prevent the first line of text in a link from becoming indented?

Hello. In a div are two sentences. They look fine until I change the second sentence into a link. I tried adding a <span> tag, but doing so changed the class. I tried placing the text of the second sentence into a separate div tag, but that didn't work either. I tried applying a negative value in the text indent field but that moved that first sentence instead of the second sentence. I am having trouble getting the div containing the second sentence to move into location beneath the first sentence, so I decided to work with all of the text inside of one div tag. I would appreciate it if someone would let me know how to have both sentences be in a flush left position. Thank you.

The indent comes from the padding-left: 7px; in the CSS rule for the <a> tag
a:link {
          color: #FFF;
          background-color: #000;
          text-align: center;
          padding-top: 8px;
          padding-right: 8px;
          padding-bottom: 8px;
          padding-left: 7px; /* CREATES UNWANTED LEFT INDENT IN FOOTER LINKS */
          text-decoration: none;
That rule is good for your menu but not your footer links so create a new set of rules for links in the footer.
.footer_cc_license a:link {
          color: #FFF;
          background-color: #000;
.footer_cc_license a:visited {
color: #FFF;
background-color: #000;
.footer_cc_license a:hover {
color: #FFF;
background-color: #000;
   text-decoration: underline;
.footer_cc_license a:active {
color: #FFF;
background-color: #000;
text-decoration: underline;

You can set up a temporary button (or link, bookmark, etc.) and add the following JavaScript action:
// Mouse Up script for a temporary button (or bookmark, etc.)
// Change the font and font size for all text fields in this document
for (var i = 0; i < numFields; i += 1) {
    var f = getField(getNthFieldName(i));
    if (f.type === "text") {
        f.textFont = font.Helv;
        f.textSize = 9;
It also sets the font size, but you can remove that line if you don't need to do that.

Yes, the iPhone 5S is a global phone. However, Sprint will only unlock phones for use on GSM networks outside of the U.S. In the U.S., that phone can only be used on Sprint's network.

How to get the Ship-To text for an Order from R/3 to CRM?

Hi experts,
how to get the Ship-to-Party text for an Order from R/3 to CRM?
Here I used a Function Module CRM_ORDER_READ and its working in the Development server.
After when this passed to the Stage Server for the Order i am maintaining the same Ship-to-Party for the order in the Stage server and I am no getting the text for that{Text maintained for the Ship-to-Party in the stage server}.
Thanks in advance.

Hello Nilaksha.
You can use the following query. Modify the segment to be queried if you wish.
SELECT cc.segment1||'.'||segment2||'.'||segment3||'.'||segment4 "Account",
nvl(sum(l.accounted_dr - l.accounted_cr),0) "Balance"
FROM gl_code_combinations cc,
gl_je_lines l
WHERE cc.code_combination_id = l.code_combination_id
AND l.set_of_books_id = <your set_of_books_id'
AND cc.segment2 = 'your segment value'
AND l.effective_date <= '30-nov-09'
GROUP BY cc.segment1||'.'||segment2||'.'||segment3||'.'||segment4
Hope this helps.
