Where is the "Send as Text Message" option?
This article: http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2425311,00.asp indicates that clicking and holding on a sent iMessage in iOS 7 pops up a menu with the following three options: 'Copy', 'Send as Text Message' and 'More...'. On my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.0.4) I don't get the 'Send as Text Message' option. Why? Thanks.
Thanks. I tried to do this but the message goes out on iMessage instantaneously. No time to hold on it and select the 'Send as Text Message' option.
My problem is I am trying to send a message to someone's iPhone without a data plan. So, when the person is away and not connected to Wi-Fi, he or she will not receive my messages that go out on iMessage (and likely land on the person's other Apple devices at home). Combining iMessage with SMS seems like an error on Apple's side. Is there a workaround?

Where is the Sender Verification Text Box PSE 8
With a verification code (for sharing e-mail attachments or sharing by Photo Mail) I need to know where I "paste" this code.
When you start the sharing process, window will come wherein it will ask you to enter the verification code. So you just need to start the sharing process and while traversing through the windows it will ask you to enter the code.

I do not have my iphone synced with my work email but when I send a text message via my work email any response I get comes to my phone. Why? How do I change that because I do not want my phone connected with my work email?
Thank youI am not sure what you mean.
Do you mean the From field?
You can change it by tapping it, it will give you options based on the other email accounts set up.
You can set a default account here:
Sttings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars > scroll down to the Mail section & you will see Default Account. You can change that to your gmail account. -
Is there a way to send a message with a photo attached using imessages. I am not able to send a photo to one of my contacts because I am sending the contact a message text messages. I don't want to send contacts text messages. I want to send them iMessages.
Kolyei, sorry for the late reply.
Have your brother create a contact in his phone for himself. Inside his own contact, have him add his phone number and his iCloud address.
Settings > Messages > Send & Receive Have your brother select both his phone number and email addresses where he would like to receive iMessages. -
Why is it that when I send a text message, sometimes the recipient receives it twice. It doesn't happen every time.
I am having this same problem. Sometimes it sends from my phone number, sometimes it sends from my gmail. Under my messages settings it says "receive messages at 2 addresses" and when I click on that I try to remove the gmail address from there but the option to delete that email address is grayed out so I can't click on it.
I discovered this was happening because I am in a group imessage with 2 friends. They told me that for some reason the group convos were split into 2 different conversations in their message list. And we discovered it's because in one group the messages are coming from my phone number, and in the other group it is coming from my gmail address.
I don't mind RECEIVING iMessages at both my phone number and my gmail - but I want control over which one is being used when I SEND iMessages.
Any ideas??? Thanks in advance. -
When I send a text message the receiving party does not know who it came from?
When I send a text message to someone they keep asking me who sent this message? Please explain what I need to change.

My deleted contacts still show up when I want to send a text message. But when I go to my address book there not there only when I want to send a text MSG there name comes up and if I select them it only show there number not name in the message. How an I get rid of that
Try this...
have a text convo with the person you want to delete. Go to the top contact in the text convo, hit edit contact, and delete that contact.
That resolution came from another thread on this issue, and this did solve to poster's issue. -

When I send a text message it says delivery failed. When I resend it sends the message twice. Why am I having trouble?
Oh goodness! We want your text going through the first time, dria56. Does this happen when you're messaging someone in particular or is it every message you send? Is it a plain text or a message with more than 160 characters/graphics/pictures?
