TS4268 no audio available on incoming text, vibrate only.

no audio available on incoming text, vibrate only?

It is NOT YOU... and PERSONALLY i get upset when Apple does not play by their own rules.
IT IS TEXT, let me over score it and hit my keys assigned to speak it.
I live with chronic pain and reading becomes near impossible. So i LIVE by speech, and listening to things.  I get really ticked off cant use it in the iTunes Store, or read about Pod cast etc.  Just like can past html into txt editor but cant into my notes in the address book??  come on guys.
I also am getting more and more upset about the fact i can run OS X and UNIX on my mac, and any form of Microsoft Windows, but i cant play an iOS App?  Come on.  What are you waiting for Google to write an app for me to run iOS Apps on my Android?  This is as bad as the introduction of the iPhone and not having the ability to copy and paste.  I had hounded my brother for getting into apple since 1984, and he finally broke down with the iPhone, and i did not hear the end of it not being able to search his data and do simple copy and paste.
Apple needs to expand their testing and input on general products.  There are so many little simple things that could be so helpful. Remember CopyDoubler in the old mac os and it would auto update data of folders within folders when doing a copy. Very nice when working on a project and keeping a back up copy on the server.
Little things like this make a big difference, and are not much for them to  incorporate  into the system, and keeping thing consistent between apps, machines, new technology.
Im really ticked off ABC canceled their ABC evening news podcast and only have their iPad App. Well what if im at my Mac Pro, my iMac or my MacBook Pro.  About 10 or 15 times the cost of an iPad, and yet i cant run a stupid app to catch the evening news. Heyyyyy but i can run my Windows apps.  Now does that make sense?
I DONT THINK SO.

  • Suddenly all incoming Text messages only appear on my home screen and disappear when opened, What happened?

    Two days ago all my text messages became scrambled. I get notified when a new message appears on my locked home screen, but when I open them up, they disappear until I answer the thread. Unfortunately, I can't read the entire message when it is on the locked home screen. When I reply, other texts are mixed in under the person's thread I am trying to answer. I deleted all old texts in hope that this would resolve itself, but it became worse! I have not changed any setting. Any suggestions on how to fix this? Thanks!

    Same thing is happening to me whethere the texts are received on the imessage or other text message apps. The message is showing on the lock screen halfway and when I try to pull it it is not here. This is happening since IOS 7. Is there still a glitch??

  • I am unable to get an audio for incoming text messages on my iphone 4 can any one help

    I have had my iphone 4 for several years now and all of a sudden I no longer have an audio play when I recieve an incoming text message. Can anyone help please?
    Thanks in advance.

    Make sure your ring/silent switch on the side of the phone is not On (red dot showing).

  • Text vibrate options?

    I have an iPhone 4S OS ver 5.1.1. Is there any way to make the phone vibrate more than once upon an incoming text? I know you can do this through accesability for incoming voice calls but the text vibrate seems to be set to once and once only.

    When I do that, it neither vibrates or chimes (even when the silent mode switch is off).

  • Text Vibrate; calls ring?

    Hi-
    Is there a way to get my phone to vibrate for incoming texts but still ring for incoming calls? I know I can silence texts, but can I make them vibrate?
    Thanks!

    If you have vibrate turned on, it will be for all incoming calls/texts, etc. No way as far as I know to have it vibrate ONLY for texts.

  • IChat 4.0.9 Incoming Text Messages Aren't Received

    Hi All,
    I am troubleshooting a problem with iChat 4.0.9 after upgrading to Mac OS X Combined 10.5.8. After installing the system update for OS X 10.5.8 on January 6, 2011, I no longer receive incoming text messages. Outgoing messages are received but incoming chat requests and responses to my messages are lost. Video and Audio chat work as normal, only the text messages are impacted.
    I've looked at the system security settings, the firewall is set to allow all incoming traffic.
    Apple recommended that I trash iChat and reinstall from the system disks, but the system won't take the disks that I have (I'm assuming because I'm on a newer version of the system), and I cannot find a 10.5.8 download (the 10.5.1 download also would not install).
    Also of note is that the system shows that iChat was updated on January 30th, 2011 (another system update was pushed on this date).
    Any ideas or thoughts on other things to check?
    Your help is much appreciated.

    Hi,
    The Process is to stick in the Install Disk then open it in the Finder.
    Expand the Window to see the Options Installs part.
    Launch the Optionals .mpkg and it will launch the Installer.
    This will run like any other installer that dos not require a Shut Down.
    You will be presented with a Applications list
    Select Just iChat.
    (No Printer of other apps stuff)
    Press the Continue button.
    Reinstall the COMBO update to Update iChat afterwards

  • Verizon Messages App doesn't display incoming texts

    The VERIZON MESSAGES APP doesn't display all incoming messages.
    This is true for the WEB APP i use on my windows 7 PC
    Iv'e tried multiple browsers and this does not help
    It is also a problem with both my android tablets running the google play app from verizon
    I'm not sure but, it appears that maybe this is related to ATT users.

    This does NOT work on the Galaxy S3.
    Airplane mode ON, Wifi ON, No network mode is available in Airplane mode.  So...only wifi is available.  When I try to send a text with only wifi available I get "Network not available.  The message will be sent when the network is available"
    BUT...On my Galaxy Tab 2 (non-verizon), This DOES work.  On the tab 2 with only wifi available, I CAN send text messages using Verizon Messages.
    So....again...
    On Galaxy Tab 2 with only WiFi available...texting with Verizon messages DOES work.
    On Galaxy S3 with only WiFi available...texting with Verizon messages DOES NOT work.
    Please fix Verizon Messages to work over WiFi using Galaxy S3.
    Thanks,
    Abe

  • How can I stop my incoming text messages from going to my daughter's iphone?

    How can I stop my incoming text messages from going to my daughter's iphone?  I have the 4s she has the 4.  When she got the latest update, everything on our phones synced.  She got her own apple id, but she is still getting all of my text messages.

    This is with iMessages only, and because she has the same email address available and selected under You can be reached at at Settings > Messages > Send & Receive.

  • For iphone users with att, can you block incoming texts all together? After paying $20 for data i dont want to pay as i go/pay more for texts

    For iphone users with att, can you block incoming texts all together? After paying $20 for data i dont want to pay as i go/pay more for texts

    SMS is exchanged over the same network as calls - no data involved.
    MMS requires data.
    iMessage requires the same as email - internet access via an available wi-fi network or via your carrier's cellular data network.
    You can disable SMS/MMS altogther with your account by requesting this with AT&T. You can turn iMessage off unless your iPhone is connected to an available wi-fi network.

  • App to convert incoming texts to emails?

    Is there an iPhone app (preferably free) that will email all incoming text messages, so I can receive my texts as emails?

    haven't found an app yet... still waiting hopefully soon

  • Incoming texts going to old phone instead of new one.

    I upgraded from iphone 4 to Nokia Lumia 928. I can call out, receive calls, and send texts on the Nokia, but all incoming text messages are still sent to my iphone. Any ideas on how to fix this? It's not real handy having to carry two phones around.

        Hi there TGuinn!
    I definitely don't want you to have to carry around multiple devices! As Suzy Q mentioned it seems as though your iMessage may still be activated for your phone number. The great news is it's easy to remove. Visit this link: http://vz.to/1aTAJuM sign in with your Apple ID and remove your number from iMessages.
    Please test and let me know if you have any other questions!
    Thanks!

  • Incoming Text Messages Allocated to Wrong Contact

    I recently recieved my Zed10 back from warranty repair for an out of the box malfunctioning headphone port and am now experiencing an issues a thousand times more frustrating.  The phone is now having issues when I recieved a text message in which it will assign it to the wrong contact.  I've checked the contact information, there's no duplicated numbers, the number the text is coming from is only assigned to one contact, yet thru one SMS conversation, it may appear that I am talking with 3 different individuals, which is very confusing.  Before I sent my Zed10 in I did a full backup, then security wipe.  I received my exact same device back from warranty, updated to the latest OS, did a restore of my backup, and now this.  I went thru and deleted all the SMS history, which seemed to resolve the problem, but after about an hour it has started again.  Some of the numbers it is now showing as incoming texts are not even numbers of my contacts, yet I can keep the conversation going by replying to the actual contact on my phone (if I reply to the number that it's telling me the text came from, the person on the other end has no information of any text).  Has anyone experienced this?  Since we don't really have contact backup options in Link like we did in DM my next "fix" attempt will be to move my contacts to my SIM card and wipe the device... again.  Very glad to have my BB10 back after 2 weeks on a Curve 9300, but this is VERY frustrating.
    If anyone has had anything like this happen, please help.  Thanks everyone.

    while texting with more than one person at a time the incoming texts scrolls to top of conversation. anyone having this issue?

    I've heard claims it can be done, claims some have done it, and claims that it didn't work for them. This thread is interesting, some indications it should be possible, complaints that it didn't, and also an interesting work-around:

    Though if you're requesting hardware changes for iPhone v2 you may want to wait a week (or a month?)...they're probably going to be inundated right now by requests for software changes to the current iPhone.
