Weird message 'delete ALL stored messages from your phone!'

This randomly just came up and doesn't seem like an apple thing. Can anyone explain?

My girlfriend had the same today. (Pic below)
The phone showed 7.5GB of free space.
This lead me to believe that the message was not an Apple message (also just based on the look and poor format of the message)
She mentioned that this has happened once before.
We noted that the "Dismiss" button did not actually do anything and the we had to shut down and restart it.
She is also with the same carrier.
This leads me to believe that messages are from the carrier.
Maybe the messages on the server are not being deleted or something of that nature.
I might post on other local 'famous washing machine brand' forums and see if they have any ideas.

    How can I deactivate photostream without letting apple delete "all photostream-fotos from your ipad" ??
    It couldn't be, it would be an insolence, really, for a company to delete anything on my devices. I just want to stop streaming from now on because of lack of storage capabilities!! Did I miss something?
    Thanks for an answer!

    Hi bdahm,
    Welcome to the Support Communities!  You are correct.  Before you delete any app from your iPad, you need to save it's documents (data).

  • HT4528 how do I delete all my photos from my phone

    How do I delete all my photos from my phone using my phone?

    Photos on your iPhone that were transferred from your computer via the iTunes sync process cannot be deleted direct from the iPhone. These photos are removed from your iPhone the same way - via the iTunes sync process.
    Photos in the Camera Roll can be deleted direct from the iPhone. With the Camera Roll selected, select the icon at the top right. Select the photos you want to delete followed by selecting the Red delete button at the bottom right.

    Well, since you can't delete songs directly form the iPhone, you might want to find someone else to lay a beating on. My first instinct would be to blame the person that wasn't "technical" enough to back the music up on the computer.

  • My husband and I use the same apple ID, I have just started using an iPhone and deleted all his contacts from my phone. He hadn't backed up his iPhone but my iPad is backed up to iCloud. Is there any way I can retrieve his contacts from there?

    My husband and I use the same apple ID. I started using a new iPhone and deleted his contacts from my phone which has also deleted them from his phone. He hasn't backed up his phone but my iPad is backed to iCloud. Can I retrieve the contacts from this?

    In preferences turn on iTunes sharing in iTunes preferences and keep iTunes turned on in both accounts. Or better yet put the iTunes library on the main HD rather than in an account and set the location of the library to that location in iTunes preferences.

  • Could you retrieve text messages from your phone by looking on your bill?

    im trying to retrieve messages that was erased off my phone after i plugged it up to my mac does anyone know?

    The title of your post isn't the same as the post, so I'm a bit confused.  If you want to see the numbers being texted by phones on your account, log into your on-line MyVerizon account (assuming you are the Account Owner and logged in as such) and click the blue Usage Details.  Select the appropriate line at the top of the page (if applicable) and then under the table showing text usage, click the blue View Messaging Details.  However, texts sent/received via iMessage won't show up since they don't go through Verizon's system.
    If you want texts sent to your e-mail, you should be able to forward them.  If it's another phone on your account that you're wanting those texts sent to your e-mail, there may be an app for that, but I'm not sure.  With Androids, you can get apps that back up text messages and then forward them to your e-mail; I don't know if there's a similar iPhone app or not.

    How do you delete contacts from your phone for good without having it appear in the messages app?

    Hi tieyce,
    You need to hook up your iPhone, select it under Devices, and then go to the Photos tab on the Device Profile, and uncheck Sync Photos, then sync. That should delete all photos that were downloaded from your computer.
    When you say you have 2 separate albums of the same sets of pictures, what 2 albums are you referring to? Can you provide us with names of those "duplicate" albums?

    an you delete a text messages from your mac Book OSX 10.9.2 and not delete them from your iphone 5 running version 7.0.4

    Have you tried restarting or resetting your iPhone?
    Restart: Press On/Off button until the Slide to Power Off slider appears, select Slide to Power Off and, after It shuts down, 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).
    Also consider deleting and reinstalling the Mail Account in question.

  • Is it possible to retreive deleted messages from your Iphone

    Yeah, unless you want to deal with the pain of trying to get you messages to your computer, you will have to take a screenshot (by taping the home and lock button at the same time).
    If you want to print a screenshot, it will be in the photos app to print ( click the share button and click print).  If you so not have a AirPrint printer, there are third-party apps for computers like fingerprint (look it up) that can make a fake AirPrint printer.
    I want to add something more.
    In most cases, you would need to use a paid third party tool to export and then print your iPhone text messages on your computer. If you have a low amount of messages you want to print you can also take prints creens of each message, then transfer the photos to your computer and print from there.

    Hello
    I received an unsolicited message from a phone number. I deleted it.
    A second copy arrived and I deleted that too.
    The message says send STOP as a reply and it will be stopped but the web says this is a way to give the sender access to your account and they will charge you £3 every time.
    Did i do right to delete it?
    How can I block a number?  The system on my iPhone iiOS 8 and Mac Yosemite will not allow it.
    How can I change my status (as I do on Skype) to stop these messages safely?
    Anythoughts?

    Why not using ASP?
    If on your webpage you have some buttons that runs at server, the server can create a web Client and using your IP address retrieved from the cession, communicate with your application (that will act as web Server). 
    then the web client on the web server can send request to your VB application and read a stream as response.
    This web client being control by the buttons on the web page, gives you complete control over what and when the data is sent
    This way you will have a complete control over the VB application from the web page.
    I am not saying that the way you want to do it cannot work, ... but it seems more complicated
