Why are my imessages and text messages in a different chat when im texting one person?

when i am texting my friend and my message sends as a text everything is fine but when she replies with an imessage it goes into a different chat so i have to keep changing chats to reply depending on whether the message is an imessage or text message, how do i make it so they are in one chat?

Greetings Tiffany,
It sounds as though you are receiving iMessages from your friend yet she is receiving SMS text messages from you rather than iMessages, and this is causing your conversations to appear as two separate items in the Messages application, is that correct?
I would suggest following the steps in this article to troubleshoot this issue, so that what you send is sent as an iMessage -

  • Why are my clarity and vibrance sliders always on by default when I import?

    Fairly new to LR. I notice that whenver I import photos and open them up in the Develop module, the Clarity slider is set to 30 and the Vibrance slider is set to 25. I've repeatedly cleared the slider settings back to their defaults, but when I import another photo and open it up, the same exact thing happens.
    Is this the way it's supposed to work? Is LR making auto adjustments based on what it thinks the image needs?
    Thanks...

    It's not in Preferences. It's likely that you have created an Import Preset (which includes setting the "Punch" develop preset) which Lightroom is defaulting to. Set it back to "None", clear the "Punch" preset, then try a few imports to make sure everything is now normal.
    The Import Preset box is down at the bottom of the Import Panel:

  • HT1688 why are my imessages now turning into text messages all the time?

    Why are my iMessages now turning into text messages all the time?

    There are a number of reasons why they may be sent as regular sms and not iMessages. If either party is in an area with poor reception and the the data network is struggling, the regular sms messages will be sent to the recipient. iMessage can be switched off at a users convienince, your recipients may have iMessage turned off when you've sent those messages.
    There are instances where the iMessage server is not responding due to techinical issues (although, few and far between)

  • Why does my iMessage send text as a text message only to one specific iPhone?

    When I am texting someone else who also has an iPhone, we are using iMessage. But a lot of the time my test messages to this person are "sent as text message" in a green bubble, rather than a blue bubble in iMessage. Why could this be? I text various other iPhones and this doesn't happen, it only happens with this one person in particular.

    For no apparent reason at all, started only sending messages as text messages. If I tried to send a text as an iMessage, I would get a prompt with an option to send as a text message. I went to an Apple store and found out that somehow I'd been signed out of iMessages. Try this. Go to settings > messages, then make sure you're signed in. If that's the issue, and you log in with your Apple ID, it may take a few minutes to activate.

  • HT1766 how do i print or save my imessages and text messages from my phone?

    how do i print or save my imessages and text messages from my iphone?

    When viewing the SMS messages, hit edit. You then have the opportunity to select whatever messages are needed. Forward these to your email or wherever you wish. You then have a text transcript in the body of an email that you can cut/copy/paste into Pages/Word/etc. for printing.

  • Send group message as iMessage and text

    Is there a way to send a group message as both iMessage and text message? When texting two people, one with iPhone and one without, the person without doesn't get the message. The person who doesn't have an iphone used to and now when I try I send her an individual text, my iphone tries to send it as an iMessage. It will usually fixes it and sends it as a text. Could this be why the group messages aren't going through?

    The quick fix is to delete the conversation and start again but then you lose any history.
    Here's how to fix it without losing the conversation history:
    Start a new conversation with the people from the conversation Apple broke.
    Add yourself as a recipient too.
    Send a message to the conversation.
    You will see your sent message.
    You will then "receive" a group iMessage. This shows up as another conversation to the one you just sent the message to.
    To stop future messages from yourself also being sent to yourself, you can now "leave" the group conversation you started.
    Then just reply as normal to the conversation you "received" in step 5.
    After a while iOS will actually merge the new conversation with the old conversation you were trying to save. I'm not sure what triggers it to do that.

  • My phone has been smashed I need to get records of all my iMessages and texts from the last month. How do I get these?

    My phone has been smashed I need to get records of all my iMessages and texts from the last month. How do I get these?

    Do you have a backup of your iPhone which contains these messages?
    If so, you can restore a new iPhone from that backup during setup.
    If not, the messages are gone.

  • Why isnt my imessage and facetime not working?

    why is my imessage and facetime saying "waiting for activation"???

    Hi there,
    both services send a silent SMS (one that is not listed anywhere on your device) containing a configuration request to an Apple server. This server then responds with the needed configuration details. It can take some (from a few minutes to several hours) time for this answer to come. Also if for whatever reason text send/receive is not working properly, iOS can get stuck on the "waiting for activation" message.
    Hope this helps,
    Chris

  • Help imessages and texts will say delivery failed since current update on my 5s.

    I have iOS8.1currently on my phone and software is up to date.  I have an  iphone 5s The last few weeks randomly both imessages and text messages will not go through. It will say "delivery failed". Sometimes that is the case and other times the message apparently goes through because I get a reply from the person at the other end of the message. The frequency this keeps happening is getting worse by the minute!!   Please help

    Hi Raquel2178,
    It seems you are unable to send or receive sms messages or use the iMessage service. That does sound troublesome. The following article may help you resolve this issue:
    Restart your device and check for updates
    Restart your device.
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Check for an iOS software update.
    Contact your carrier
    If you can't send or receive SMS or MMS messages, contact your carrier to check your text messaging plan.
    Thank you for contributing to Apple Support Communities.
    Take care,

  • Why do my photos and text disinigrate quality (appear fuzzy / blurry / lo res) in premier pro cs6?

    Premier Pro CS6 Question.....
    Why do my photos and text disinigrate quality when imported to premier pro cs6?
    I have still shots that have text and they look clean and crisp when I view them in photoshop. Why does the photo and text look so fuzzy or blurry and not crisp when I import the still files into premier pro cs6?
    Is there a setting in premier that I am setting incorrectly? That is possibly blurring my photos and text? The problem appears in both my PR file and my final exported work.
    Is there a way to retain the quality of the image and text that I see in my photoshop file?
    Note: I am not enlarging anything after import, I am reducing though, but I would think this would only make images and text sharper????
    Any help would be greatly appreciated, Im getting tired of doing all my work and delivering blurry / fuzzy / what appears to be low resolution images and text when I complete my project.
    Thanks in advance for any help offered.

    Hi Jim, thanks so much again for chiming in to my questions.
    Specs of Stills - Photoshop file - 677 x 1014px, 150dpi, 1.96M file size, 150dpi, this is the size of the file I originally imported and reduced to approx. 65%, the one sized properly in photoshop imported fuzzier.
    Sequence Settings -
    Export Settings, FLV, attached are settings.
    1. EXPORT FILTER SETTINGS...
    2. EXPORT FORMAT SETTINGS
    3. EXPORT VIDEO SETTINGS
    FINAL PROJECT IS DELIVERY OF FLV FILE TO EMBED IN INTERACTIVE FILE. Ive tried different settings for different jobs, just feel all text and photos fall apart when pulled into and exported to FLV for embedding final.
    Ive done several slideshow and video's in premier pro, have so much to learn still, Im thinking I keep diving into my projects and possibly making a total mess out of my settings for the desired final destination? is this possible?

  • Why is "Console" "Diagnostic and usage messages" now dominated by Safari messages?

    Why is "Console" "Diagnostic and user messages" now dominated by Safari messages?
    I have randomly used Console over the years for trouble shooting, and now find it to be virtually worthless.
    Both "All Messages" and "Diagnostic and Usage Messages" are now dominated by messages from Safari.
    I do have the "Develop" menu displayed so that I can periodically "Empty Caches" since that option is no longer available otherwise.

    Occasionally, they references something like shockwave, but most are this kind of "statistical" message.

  • Why are some sort order texts goasted rather then solid black?

    To all and anyone
    The subject says it all...
    Why are some sort order texts ghosted rather then solid black?
    Thanks!
    Fred

    The ghosted/grayed values correspond with auto sorting. Auto sorting drops the leading articles, a/an/the, and variations in other languages, so that for example, The Beatles sorts as Beatles under B unless you explicitly override the auto sort by putting The Beatles in the sort value so that it sorts under T.

  • HT3529 IMessage and Group Message question

    with iphone 4S if I turn off iMessage and group message and someone sends a message to me and other people, will my reply "reply all" to everyone the message was sent to? Or is it only that when I send to multiple people their responses are only sent to me?

    You can send a message to multiple recipients using SMS, MMS, and iMessage.
    Group messaging allows you to send messages to multiple people and have any responses delivered to everyone in the group. Group messaging works with iMessage and MMS.
    If you send a message to multiple recipients without group messaging in use by the sender and all recipients, an individual message will go to each recipient using either SMS or MMS. Responses to these messages will be delivered only to the original sender in seperate messaging threads.

  • Why are my contacts and calendars showing up on my daughter's iphone after I updated?  Help!

    Why are my contacts and calendar showing up on my daughter's iphone after I updated?  Is there anyway to remove them or stop
    them from going directly to her phone?  Help!!!!  Thanks guys 

    So, am I to conclude from all this that the best thing for one iMac and multiple family devices (2 x iphones, 1 x itouch, 2 x ipods) is to set up itunes account for each family member.  We don't use iCloud except for my (primary iphone)
    We had similar problems to the above, and since the recent 6.0.1 update we've started getting each others texts, on top of my wife and I's contacts being replicated to our young son's itouch, and a seemingly random redistribution of apps.
