  • HT201363 How do i delete my iphone 4s from my account on apple ID? I change phones and i am not getting regular txt messages because somehow the messages are still sending through imessage which i no longer have.... I deleted my phone number from the acco

    I change phones and i am not getting regular txt messages because somehow the messages are still sending through imessage which i no longer have.... I deleted my phone number from the account though as per instructiions from the phone carrier and is still not working...Any help?

    Hello jn_andrade,
    It sounds like you are no longer getting text messages becuase your Apple ID is still using your phone number for iMessage. I would use these steps to unlink your phone number from your account:
    Unlink a phone number
    To remove a phone number from an Apple ID, sign out of FaceTime and Messages on your iPhone:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    This should remove your phone number from other devices using the same Apple ID with FaceTime and Messages. If the phone number is still available on other devices after you sign out of FaceTime and iMessage on the iPhone, you may need to sign out of iMessage and FaceTime on all your devices, then sign in to FaceTime and Messages again on devices you want to use.
    Note: If you no longer have access to the iPhone that is using the number you want to remove, reset your Apple ID password.

  • I shall open delete my present account with iTunes and open a new one - but I do not have the password. How can I then delete the present account??

    Since you can't delete Apple IDs and having multiple Apple IDs can cause confusion, what you may want to do is rename your existing Apple ID to the new email (desired Apple ID).  That would in effect do what you want, get rid of the old and give you the new.

  • HT4859 I backedup iphone 4 and iphone 5 to icloud. I need contacts from the ipone 4 backup but I do not have that phone anymore and icloud will only let me restore the iphone 5's backups now. Is there anyway to get the contacts from my previous iphone 4?

    I backedup my iphone 4 to the cloud before upgrading to an iphone 5. I also backedup my iphone 5 to icloud. I can see both phone's backups side by side on the my screen on icloud. But it will not allow me to restore the iphone 4 backup to my iphone 5.  I need contacts from the iphone 4 backup but I do not have that phone anymore and icloud will only let me restore the iphone 5's backups to my iphone 5. Is there anyway to get the contacts from my previous iphone 4 backup?

    You should be syncing your contacts with an app on your computer or cloud service (iCloud, Gmail, Yahoo, etc), and not relying on a backup.  If you haven't been doing this, start now and then restore your old backup.  You will then be able to sync the new contacts back into the phone.  However, you will lose all messages, etc newer thant the backup.

  • Why does it send as an imessage when my friend doesnt have an iphone anymore?

    Hello,
    So my friend used to have an iphone but then he switched to a non iphone but still uses the same number, whenever i try to send him a message it still sends as an imessage and he neevr gets it unless i keep on holding the message then send it as a text message. otherwise he will never get the message? he told me that they deactivated the number on his iphone and transferred it to his new phone. so idk why it still does that?

    Because your friend did not deactivate iMessage before getting rid of the iPhone. Your friend now has to call Apple and ask them to deactivate iMessage for the account.

  • How do I Fix Other People Sending Me iMessages when I no Longer Have an iPhon

    Hi,
    So, I recently decided to go away from the Apple iPhone, which I enjoyed, just too costly. Though, when I left, to go to android, I kept the same sim, and transferd it over to my new phone, with no issues.
    The issue is on the other end, other people's cell phones (iPhones with iMessage) think I still have a iPhone, automaticly sending an iMessage. Most people don't know how to send it, like a regular message, so I'm wondering how I can disconnect iMessage from my android phone. Or would I have to contact my carrier to repair this issue, as I believe it still recognizes my new android as an iPhone.
    Thanks for your help.

    Hyperbole is not very useful on a tech support forum. No one flipped out.
    Whether or not what happened is ridiculous or should or should not have happened is a question for another time and place. You should definitely submit feedback to Apple about it:
    http://www.apple.com/feedback
    Regardless of why it happened or whether it should have happened, the only way to remove the activation lock is to contact Apple. You should be able to do it over the phone. You may be required to send them the original proof of purchase. Use the Contact Us link at the bottom right of every page.
    Once you get the phone working again, do NOT restore it from you existing back up or you will, most likely, be right back where you started.
    Best of luck.

  • I have Firefox 13.0. I have the homepage with the icons such as history, but I do not have the updated tabs.How do I get the updated tabs? Thanks.

    I have just updated to Firefox 13.0. I have the AVG Secure Search on my browser or whatever it is that is where the search engines and refresh, and bookmarks icons are located. Even though on my add ons page it says it is disabled. But obviously it isn't because it still works. I have removed AVG Secure Search from the list of search engines in the drop down list in the search bar, but this did not solve the problem with my tabs. The Firefox website says that my Firefox is up to date, but if it is up to date why do I still have the same old tab page when I open a new tab? When I click on the plus sign to get a new tab, it takes me to about:Tabs and says on the screen "You've opened a new tab." Then it has a search bar and a button next to it that says "Web Search!" Then it goes on to say "With Tabs You Can..." So, how do I change my current tabs to the updated Firefox tabs with icons of the my recent tabs and websites I regularly visit. Also can you please provide detailed step by step ways to solve this problem. Thanks.

    You only see items on the about:newtab page if the history is enabled and the browsing cache is working (stores thumbnails).
    *Tools > Options > Privacy > Firefox will: "Use custom settings for history"

  • My iphone says ive got 3.9gb of messages saved in usage, but ive deleted all messages. how do i find these saved messages

    my iphone says ive got 3.9gb messages saved in usage, but ive deleted all messages. how can this be . someone please help

    Firstly you DO NOT have to do a factory reset / wipe device, it is simply not required to get the space back!!
    Mine had 3GB and I just got rid of it all, here is how:
    METHOD ONE:
    Make a backup in iTunes
    open iBackupBot (Google it)
    Go to the relevant backup
    Click on Multimedia File Manager and click on the other Multimedia files tab
    Sort by filename by clicking the Filename tab
    Find MediaDomain/Library/SMS/Attachments and highlight all of them, then press delete.  You can also click to export to a folder of your choice, if you want to save them that is. 
    Then go to System Files>MediaDomain>Library>SMS>Attachments
    They will be all listed here, highlight them all and press delete
    Then just restore that backup using iTunes! 
      Tadaa! Space recovered, your messages are still there but without the attachments!  METHOD TWO:
    Backup your device in iTunes and then to iCloud
    Go to Settings>iCloud and toggle Documents & Data to OFF
    Then do a 2nd backup to iTunes and iCloud
    Then restore the device from iCloud and the message attachments should be gone, turn Documents & Data back on again in the settings
    PLEASE NOTE: Method two is a much longer process but some users may feel more comfortable with this method.
    P.S You may want to make two backups in case you get any of the above steps wrong, but it is simple to follow the above and not do anything wrong!
    P.P.S You could also just go through every single conversation and delete the attachments one by one, but if you have hundreds or thousands of attachments, this will take a VERY LONG TIME!!!

  • My sms texts are still sending duplicates to some contacts

    i'm still finding my iPhone 5c sends duplicate sms texts to some of my contacts. Marco49 suggested one solution but I'm sorry to say that didn't solve the problem.

    Are you referring to an actual SMS, or an iMessage? If iMessage, do you have your settings set to Send As SMS if iMessage fails? It could be they are temporarily out of data range, or you could be as well, but it was just enough to begin the send. Are these text bubbles blue or green?
    If this is an actual SMS, then I suggest that you contact your carrier, as SMS is a carrier function.

  • I am no longer able to send group messages or send pictures to contacts that do not have an iPhone. Using iOS 5.1.1

    Is anyone else having this issue? Any ideas on how to fix it?

    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.

  • I tried to download yosemite but the download failed because of poor wifi connections and I tried again but I did not have enough disk space how do I get the space back from the failed download?

    The failed download of Yosemite used up disk space and I can't find away to delete that because it is taking up 4 GB of space that I need to download Yosemite.

    Check that your computer is compatible with Mountain Lion/Mavericks/Yosemite.
    To check the model number hold down the option/alt key, go to the Apple menu and select System Information.
    iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) model number 7,1 or higher
    Your Mac needs:
    OS X v10.6.8 or OS X Lion already installed
    2 GB or more of memory (More is better - 4 GB minimum seems to be the consensus)
    8 GB or more of available space
    Check to make sure your applications are compatible. PowerPC applications are no longer supported after 10.6.      
    Application Compatibility
    Applications Compatibility (2)
    Do a backup before installing.
    If you can/do upgrade, I recommend you make a copy of the installer and move it out of your Applications folder. The installer self-destructs. The copy will keep you from having to download the installer again.  You can make a bootable USB stick to install using this free program.
