When I text someone their email flashes briefly in grey?

I've had a hard time googling this one but have a picture. Basically when I text someone from my iPhone 4S the screen does something weird and very quickly the email of the person I'm texting flashes above in grey. This just started happening today. Thanks in advance :)

Turn off imessage and it should show your name on their device and not your email address.

    There may be a defect in the phone. As you bought it in the US the only place you can get it looked at is in the US.
    When you say you bought it new, unlocked did you buy it directly from an Apple store? If you did not it was hacked to unlock it, which could also be your problem. Apple stores are the only place in the US that sells legitimately unlocked iPhones.

  • When i text someone with an Iphone with my iphone.

    hi, okay well whenever i text someone with my iphone and they have an iphone as well underneath the text i sent it sometimes will say read and they will reply back. But then normally it says "Delivered" but they respond why isnt it saying "read" after each text or soo? like im confused

    Every imessages will show delivered below the message once its delivered, it will only show read if the other person has the "send read reciept" turned on , on there phone.

  • When I text someone with a 5S iPhone the bubble is green from my 5s phone, but is blue when I text from my ipad why?

    If two 5s iPhones are texting each other why is it green when I text from my phone and blue bubble from my iPad? I only want the green bubble

    The green bubble is for standard text messages used from one phone number to another, whether it is an iPhone or not.
    The blue bubble is for iMessages, which can be sent between any two iOS devices.
    Your iPad, even if it has cellular service, is not a phone.  Therefore, it can only send iMessages, unless you use a third-party messaging app.

  • When you text someone from imessage and it says delivered..does this mean that the other person received the message already through their ipod and a notification pops out?

    im just wondering if the person im texting using imessage actually received my message when it says delivered..doesnt mean they read it but does it mean it applies the fact they can c the msg alrd like their ipod touch has received the msg and can b seen tru notification as well

    A red check means the text wasn't sent (maybe the number has been changed, they have texts blocked, there was a network problem).

  • Strange behavior when deleting text in an email.

    When composing emails I have noticed that if I make a mistake and delete some text it behaves strangely.  This only happens if the text deleted is at the end of the message.  On deleting the text I am then left with a small highlighted area (like when you have used your cursor to select an area).  If I then try to continue typing it types a few letters and then stops and the new letters typed just go over and over in the same cursor spot.  This is difficult to describe so i hope I have made sense but it is extremely frustrating and I was wondering if anyone else was having the same problem of if it is a known bug???  If anyone knows, please could they let me know :-)
    Thanks
    P.S. I'm on an iMac using 10.7.3

    Thanks for the info sanjapet.
    1) I just trashed the Preferences
    com.apple.mail.plist
    com.apple.mail.plist.lockfile
    2) then reboot. It is still misbehaving in texts in Apple Mail. For example i select a whole paragraph but only some words are highlighted. Here is a sample
    http://www.pixentral.com/show.php?pi...rYnikzXiYS5Ir0
    very annoying indeed.
    3) Now i go to Preferences and
    com.apple.mail.plist
    com.apple.mail.plist.lockfile
    are not there any more. I thought Apple Mail will restored them automatically. Isn't that right?
    Best,

  • I sometimes lose my signal when calling/texting someone. Is the case program from Apple still active or do I have to spend $30 on one?

    So I sometimes get the "No signal" text when texting or receiving a call or calling someone. I knew that Apple gave free cases before, but don't anymore. Will they make an exception for me? I really don't feel like spending $30 on a case when I spent $700 on an iPhone. Oh, and I live in Sweden, by the way. If that'll change anything.
    What to do? :S

    Did you manage to get it working mine disappeared after I while I managed to download it but now my laptop/iTunes won't recognise my iPhone!

  • Has anyone seen random periods appearing when typing text on their iBook?

    We have an iBook G4, and over the past two weeks we have seen periods randomly appearing across different applications when we have a text box open: for example when AppleWorks is open, when using our email program, or even in the address bar in Firefox.
    This occurs suddenly with no apparent pressing on the period button, and even occurs when we've walked away from the computer and come back only to see periods filling up the screen. Any pointers are much appreciated.
    iBook G4 Mac OS X (10.3.9)
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.3.9)  

    Is there any chance the keyboard has a sticking key? If not, there may be
    some random happening due to some logical error in the system; and if
    you do routine system maintenance, you could rule out user permissions
    issues; or make a new second user account and enable at least standard
    or higher level permissions, and see if the new account does the same.
    Some odd issues can be dealt with by simply booting in SafeBoot, done
    by holding down the Shift key on startup until you see the dialog box with
    SafeBoot in it, and let the machine further start and go to normal desktop;
    once there, you could try Disk Utility and have it "repair disk permissions"
    and then quit disk utility; and restart the computer normally.
    There may be some other issue behind the symptoms you experience;
    sometimes, if you have too many fonts, there can be a corruption in
    how text appears in some applications. There are font management apps
    available; you could see if they help (if that's a possibility.)
    And, there may be another reason for this. Data corruption on the hard
    drive may manifest itself in odd behaviors, for example; and there would
    be other symptoms or causes behind that, too.

  • Weird email issue, if I text someone my email reappears

    I have no idea how it happened, but it's a bit strange. My work email address seems to have vanished. I sent a text and as soon as I hit send, all my emails appear. I can email from there, but as soon as I hit sent I'm back to an empty screen. Can anyone tell me what's going on and more importantly how to correct it?

    is your Blackberry a corporate one ?
    My guess is that your emails are filed in folders, and you have configured your Messages application to hide files messages.
    you can unhide them by going in the options, once you are in the messages application.
