TS2755 How do I know if someone sent me a picture message without always having to have LTE on?

It's frustrating when I'm having a conversation with somebody and suddenly they stop talking. It's even more frustrating when I find out that they didn't stop talking, they just sent me a picture. Unfortunately, because I obviously don't want to have to keep LTE on all the time, I have no way of knowing when someone sends me a picture. Is there any way for me to get some sort of notification without using cellular data? I would just like to be able to know that there is something there.

I would second that prior comment - not sure what you are trying to do
In many cases the pictures will come through even on 3G especially if the other person is on a GSM carrier like T-Mo or AT&T
The text / Message notification should ding - and you see a badge icon notification if that is turned on
Sorry if I am completely missing your point

    There's a person that's very suspicious hanging around, but I managed to take a picture of them. 
    How do I go about finding out if they managed to snag my passwords and/or install some sort of key logger on my machine?
    Sorry but I think the suspicious person in your scenario is the person taking pictures of strangers.
    Change your passwords if you are concerned.

  • How do you know where you quit editing your pictures in your organizer?

    How do you know where you quit editing your pictures in your organizer. I have only used the program twice and now I am lost as to where I stopped. Thank you for any help in this matter.

    Exactly my point.  If one has been using the Organizer to go through the images one at a time and editing them in the Editor; at a later date one would want to know where to begin editing additional images.

  • How do I know if someone has submitted a form?

    How do I know if someone has submited a form, Do I get e-mailed?

    Hi;
    You can get emailed if you have a "Paid" level account, there is an "Email Notifications" feature that you enable on the "Options" tab for email notifications.  If you are using a Free account there is no notification and you would have to sign into your FormsCentral account to see when there are new responses, the existing/new response count is shown for each form on the My Forms tab as well as of course in the "View Responses" tab of the form.
    Thanks,

    How do I know when someone buys a copy of my single?

    Thanks try67.  Consider this:  I'm not trying to silently trick the receiver, either.  I intend to explain to them up front that when they open the attached PDF, it will provide a signal that is the proof they have been notified.  It's also okay if this isn't easy; I have IT people that can do it.

  • When someone sent me a picture, it disappeared...?

    Someone sent me a picture on while we were talkin on my tablet. I did not download it at the moment.
    However, after that, it disappeared and I was not able to download or see it.
    I didn't receive any message such as "File error" or anything to let me know I had been sent a file afterwards.
    What happended?
    Shouldn't it have remained pending?
    Thanks!

    Hello Tammyx3! Let's get your picture messaging working! As Ann stated, your device does need a data connection in order for picture messaging to work. Do you have 3G on your device? Try restarting the phone and then attempt to download the picture again. If you don't have any current picture messages, try sending yourself a picture message and see if it downloads when receiving. If no change, dial *228 send option 2 then reboot again.
    Please let us know if you need additional assistance.

  • How do you know if someone who has stolen your ipod has restored it

    I recently left my iPod at work, and my manager who found it looked after it and kept it in the office. When I asked another manager the next day where my iPod was she couldn't find it in the office. After a week of waiting both the original Manager who found my iPod didn't know where it was and they said it was misplaced somewhere in the office.
    Today (over a month since I lost it) they said that someone could've possibly stolen it because they couldn't find it in the office.
    For the first week or so my friends have tried iMessaging me and the messages haven't delivered, which was normal. It was as if I still had my iPod but not in wifi range.
    Over a month later, I asked them to iMessage me again and see what it says and they were then prompted that it says "Message Delivery Failed"
    Does this mean someone has restored my iPod? Or is this normal when an iPod hasn't been charged and used for over a month?

    If you have already configured the iCloud Find My iPhone service on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac you can use it to locate your missing device, display a message on its screen, make it play a sound at full volume (even if on mute), remotely lock it, or remotely wipe (erase) it to protect your privacy. Requries iOS 6 to be trackable.
    You can use the Find My iPhone app on a different iOS device (running iOS 5 or better)
    You can use the Find My iPhone app on icloud.com
    You device may NOT be tracked if:
    Offline or Disconnectd
    Location Service Turned Off
    Restored by person who stolen it.
    Battery Dead
    Running below iOS 6 (ei. iOS 5.1.1)
    Change passwords used on that iDevice. Report to the police.

    You can't see if a contact can use FaceTime because you don't need to login in FaceTime to call her/him. An iPhone, iPad, iPod touch or Mac is permanently logged in, so you can call it without issues

  • How do i Know if someone Added Me?

    Hi guys, how are you doing?!
    i have a problem, everytime i open iChat, it seems like i am all alone, becuase i dont know who added me, infact, i dont even know how to go around with iChat at all.
    But it would be great if you guys added me and told me how to go around with everything! thanks again.

    Hi Daniel,
    There is no way to tell if someone has added you. You will have to add buddies as you go along. And, hopefully they will add you.
    There are a number of sites you can access that may be of interest. Following are a couple of the larger ones.
    Chatfinder
    iChatters
    Good Luck,

  • How do you know if someone else is attempting access to your wireless network? (WRT54G)

    I searched adn tried the Linksys FAQ to no avail to get an answer to the subject question.
    Is there any way to verify who is actually using or trying to attempt use of your wireless network, if so, where do I locate and view this information?
    I just set up a wireless system so my wife could get access from her wireless equipped laptop, but I really see no area to verify who is actually using the wireless network or if some other outside source/person is attempting to get access.
    Any info on where, how and what to do to view this type of info would be greatly appreciated and if it can't be, shouldn't there be something added to the system that would allow one to view all users accessing their wireless system?
    Thank you,
    Clay Fugitte

    Tracking down who is using your wireless system is usually difficult or impossible.  The router only knows the MAC address of the connecting computer.  MAC addresses can be faked.  Even if you knew the MAC address of the person connecting, what can you do with that info?  Go around the neighborhood asking people "Is this your MAC address?"
    Instead of worrying about who is connecting to your wireless, you should simply set up wireless security.  This will keep intruders off your wireless network.  Then you don't need to worry about who is connecting.
    It sounds like you are running an unsecured wireless router.  When you run an unsecured wireless router, anyone within range can login and use your Internet connection. At a minumum, this means that they will be using your bandwidth. At worst, they could be uploading copyrighted music, sending spam email, distributing viruses, or downloading child pornography --- all from an account with your name on it!   So my advice is --- secure your wireless network.
    To set up wireless security, do the following:
    First of all, to setup wireless security,  you must use a computer that is wired to the router.
    Where to find the router settings: The router's login password is usually on one of the "Administration" pages. The other settings are all found in the "Wireless" section of the router's setup pages, located at 192.168.1.1
    First, give your router a unique SSID. Don't use "linksys".
    Make sure "SSID Broadcast" is set to "enabled".
    Next, leave the router at its default settings (except for the unique SSID), and then use your pc to connect wirelessly to the router. Test your wireless Internet connection and make sure it is working correctly. You must have a properly working wireless connection before setting up wireless security.
    To implement wireless security, you need to do one step at a time, then verify that you can still connect your wireless computer to the router.
    Next, encrypt your wireless system using the highest level of encryption that all of your wireless devices will support. Common encryption methods are:
    WEP - poor (see note below)
    WPA (sometimes called PSK, or WPA with TKIP) - good
    WPA2 (sometimes called PSK2, or WPA with AES) - best
    WPA and WPA2 sometimes come in versions of "personal" and "enterprise". Most home users should use "personal". Also, if you have a choice between AES and TKIP, and your wireless equipment is capable of both, choose AES. With any encryption method, you will need to supply a key (sometimes called a "password" ).
    The wireless devices (computers, printers, etc.) that you have will need to be set up with the SSID, encryption method, and key that matches what you entered in the router.
    Retest your system and verify that your wireless Internet connection is still working correctly.
    And don't forget to give your router a new login password.
    Picking Passwords (keys): You should never use a dictionary word as a password. If you use a dictionary word as a password, even WPA2 can be cracked in a few minutes. When you pick your login password and encryption key (or password or passphrase) you should use a random combination of capital letters, small letters, and numbers, but no spaces. A login password, should be 12 characters or more. WPA and WPA2 passwords should be at least 24 characters. Note: Your key, password, or passphrase must not have any spaces in it.
    Most home users should have their routers set so that "remote management" of the router is disabled. If you must have this option enabled, then your login password must be increased to a minumum of 24 random characters.
    One additional issue is that Windows XP requires a patch to run WPA2. Go to Microsoft Knowledge base, article ID=893357 and it will direct you to the patch.
    Sadly, the patch is not part of the automatic Windows XP updates, so lots of people are missing the patch.
    Note:
    WEP is no longer recommended. The FBI has demonstrated that WEP can be cracked in just a few minutes using software tools that are readily available over the Internet. Even a long random character password will not protect you with WEP. You should be using WPA or preferably WPA2 encryption.

  • How do I know if someone is connected to my wireless router for internet?

    Easiest was is to look at the security log for signins from your router. Am assuming you already know how to log into your router. OH, and to stop it, if you have not already done so, set a security password,  AND enable wps-2 security. That SOULD stop any future unauthorized access in the future. If you don't already know how to do that, your routers instruction manual; should tell you how to do that.

    I don't know the command, personally, but there is also a command signal you can send, which identifies the ssid even it it's turned off, so JUST disabling the broadcast is pretty easily bypassed.Your best bet, if it's available, is to use type n, instead of type g protocol, activate the enhanced security, and make sure to set a password. Good luck.
