I cant receive longer text messages.  Is there a setting I need to change?

That is controlled by your carrier. The standard SMS is a max of 160 characters. There is no setting on the phone for SMS messages >160 characters.  Not all carriers will support longer messages, and some will split them into multiple messages.  Contact your carrier.

  • When I receive calls I always get the option to remind me later, but only certain times I get the option to respond with text.  Is there a setting I need to update to always get this option?

    When I receive calls I always get the option to remind me later, but only certain times I get the option to respond with text.  Is there a setting I need to update to always get this option?  Also i can't use location reminders.  Is this because my calendar is in Outlook?

    The only known way to make it work on an external drive is by first installing Windows onto an internal drive, then cloning the install to an external Thunderbolt drive. Thunderbolt is seen as an extension of the internal bus, so Windows doesn't see it as an external device.

    You can't do a backup of icloud to an external drive.  In fact, does your post have anything to do with icloud (you're in the icloud forum)?
    What kind of "system backup" are you doing?  Are you using Time Machine?

  • I cant send long text messages

    I have noticed that everytime I try to send a long text message (over 160 texts) the person never recieves it. In combination with no notificatin of going over 160 characters, not being able to resend or cut and paste this is becoming a big and annoying problem for me. Is there something Im missing or is this just another major inconvience of the iphone? I love some things about the phone but there sure do seem to be some major flaws. Any help/advice?

    thank you for such a quick response. Yes the recipient is another at&t customer using a blackberry. I never had a problem sending long text messages before getting my iphone (think the record with my old phone, a sony ecrisson w580i was 10 text messages long). I tried testing it today sending one that was 159 characters and one that was 161 characters, the 159 was recieved while the 161 was not. I tried contacting at&t and recieved a very shady answer (they suggested maybe the signal in the area which I reluctantly accepted at the time, however as time has gone on it has become obivious this is not the problem). I figured it must be another iphone characteristic however the lack of other owners mentioning this problems led me to seek help.

    This issued started after I upgraded to 5.01. I 'm not sure if I inadvertently changed a setting that is causing the problem.

  • 2330 - Cant send long texts

    Hi. First post so please be gentle!  Love my Nokia 2330 but people are saying my texts only half come through. This seems to be on my longer messages only where they go into 2 or more texts in the one.  Is there a setting I need to change so that long messages get through or is this a problem more with my service provider (Orange)?.  Any help would be great.  Many thanks.

  • Is there a way to have iphone 4 blink when receiving a text message?

    I just switched over to iphone4 from a blackberry and wanted to know if there is a setting that allows the iphone to blink red or green when receiving a text message, much like the blackberry does. my phone is on silent and, without a function like this, i am unable to tell when i am receiving a text message. if there are any other things that would allow for notification as well, please let me know! also, is there a text message icon that can appear at the top of the phone, like the lock icon? thanks a lot!

    After downloading ios7 on iPhone 5 why am I no longer receiving group text messages?

    Hi, TereseS. 
    I had the same issue after the update.  Most likely this feature just needs to be enabled.  Go to Settings > Messages and turn on Group messaging.

    How do I fix this, I no longer receive notification or sound or even a badge app icon when receiving a text message, I have not made any changed to my sounds, I've checked all the settings and everything is good, I powered off the phone and restarted, I synced it and still nothing, can anyone help?

    Settings app > Notification Center > Messages (you will need to check both the INCLUDE and DO NOT INCLUDE sections). Set the alerts you wish to see.

  • Can no longer send long text messages to an android device

    In the last month, whenever I send a relatively long text message to a non iPhone user (Galaxy s5), that person will not receive the message at all. On my screen it says that the message was sent, but they are not receiving it. I used to never have this problem before. After a while, I went into my settings and put on the character count option to see if it would help me.  I realized all my messages over 160 characters would not be received, and all messages with an emoji that have over 70 characters would not be received. This is really frustrating and I would love if someone could help me see why this is and if there's any way to fixing it.

        This is really strange behavior, Edgar08. I want to make sure those messages reach their destination. Have you noticed if this is affecting a specific contact or multiple contacts? What iOS is your phone on? Settings>General>About>Version.

  • Help! My ex boyfriend and I used to share apple ids. I have since created my own however my email is still linked to his I'd and he receives my text messages from an email address of mine on his ipad that I also receive on mine! How do I remove my email?

    My ex boyfriend and I used to share apple ids. Since we are no longer together, I have created my own apple id and associated my email address for texting on my ipad. However, he still receives my text messages that go to my email address on HIS ipad! I don't have his apple id password so I cannot delete my email from his iTunes account, nor will he give it to me. I just don't want him to see my text messages! How do I delete it from his ipad?

    Each of you need to have your own apple id's instead of sharing is the best way. But you can go to each phones settings, messages, send and recieve, and down to start new conversation from, and make sure each of you have your own email address with a check mark beside of it not the same address.

  • Casio GzOne Ravine 2 cuts off long text messages

    Is there a way to scroll to the remainder of a long text message?

    When you open the text message and it is showing on your screen, is there a scroll bar to the right?  Can you use the arrow keys to scroll? (The directional arrows around the OK button?)
    1. The received message display appears when a new message arrives.
    2. To display the message, select View Now and press the Center Select Key (OK button)
    From there you should be able to use the directional keys to scroll through the received message.

        Wow, 1yerdua. That's far too long to be having this messaging trouble. We want to find the resolution fast! If you turn off your Lumia's WiFi (Menu > Settings > WiFi), are you still able to access data-oriented applications like Internet Explorer? Have you been to other areas of the state/country and experienced the same trouble?

  • HT5824 I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off..

    I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. I have no problem sending the text messages but I'm not receivng any from iPhones at all. It has been about a week now that I'm having this problem. I've already tried fixing it myself and I also went into the sprint store, they tried everything as well. My last option was to contact Apple directly. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off so that I can receive my texts.

    If you registered your iPhone with Apple using a support profile, try going to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistering it.  Also, try changing the password associated with the Apple ID that you were using for iMessage.
