Why can't I open my texts while talking on iPhone 4s?

I have always been able to access my text messages while having a conversation on my old iPhone 3GS
I have a iPhone 4s now but if I m talking on
Phone & need to access my text messages, it won't lete open any text messages
Any ideas why?

I found this on another forum and it worked:
Go to the iCloud settings and turn it on for your calendar (and contacts if you're having trouble with that as well, because I was).
I was immediately able to create events and contacts after that. Once you've turned on iCloud for those apps and they've been fixed, you can shut it off again and shouldn't have any trouble.

  • Why can't I listen to music while charging my iPhone 4S?  As soon as i plug in the phone goes mute

    Why can't I listen to my music while charging my iPhone 4S?  As soon as I plug in my phone goes mute!

    reset the device (home and sleep/wake button for 5-10sec)
    make sure mute isnt turned on or the ringer/silent switch
    -double tap home and swipe the bottom window to the left and make sure the mute button hasnt been toggled (if its set up there, might be screen lock depending on settings)
    reset all settings (settings >general >reset)
    if all else fails try a backup/restore

  • Why can't I send group text messages on my Iphone 3GS any longer?

    I have been sending and receiving group text messages on my iphone 3GS for awhile and all of a sudden I am receiving "Message Send Failure" error messages when I try to send a group message.  I think I still get group messages but you can no longer see that it is a group message and who the group members are.  I turned the Group setting off and then back on in Settings and turned the phone off and back on with no improvement.

    Make sure your account is provisioned for messaging/texting.
    Also, Settings > Messages > MMS Messaging > On

  • How to view/send picture text while talking on iphone

    I've updated my iPhone 4S to try correcting the inability to receive/send pics while talking on phone but to no avail. What should I do next?

    If you are in the U.S. and your carrier is Verizon or Sprint, you can't access the internet while on a call with their network. MMS with the iPhone requires cellular data. You can send/receive an iMessage when on a call while the iPhone is connected to an available wi-fi network.

  • Why can't I open a GarageBand recording on my iPhone in GarageBand on Mac OSX?

    I recorded an acoustic performance of my vocal quart last night on an iPhone running GarageBand 2.0.1 on iOS 7.1.2.  But I can't open it in GarageBand 11 (6.0.5) on Mac OSX 10.9.5.  What gives?
    Not only will it not open (and the software on my Mac platform is way more recent than on my iPhone, so you'd think it would be upward compatible), but when I try to open this iOS-created file on the Mac, it asks me where I want to save it ... it's already saved, I'm just trying to open it.
    I've looked at the reviews for the latest GarageBand, which it tells me I need to upgrade to, and they are terrible!  Many report that they wish they hadn't upgraded and that they could get back to an older version of GarageBand on their Mac.
    Does this mean I'm stuck and the two GarageBand platforms are not compatible and that I won't be able to open this file?  ... other thanes an mp3 in iTunes ...
    Thanks for any insights you can give me.

    it sounds like it's opening fine, but you're just not letting it finish.
    it's asking you to save a version of the song for the mac; if it saved over the original file, it could no longer be opened on the iOS device, if you needed to alter something later

  • Why can't i open .pdf email attachment on my iphone 5

    Hi,
    Hope someone can help! I can't seem to open .pdf or .doc files which are sent to me in email format. I have had a look at other posts and tried the answers but none of these work. It seems to be since the ios7 update. Do i need to download an app?
    Many thanks

    Hi, Try downloading the free Adobe Reader app from the App Store. Hope it works.

  • Why can't I open the apple store on my iPhone

    First let me say this is a phone I got sent from Apple.
    The issue I have is when using my extension cable once fully charged my phone says charging is not supported with this accessory.
    Next issue I have is I can't log into the App Store on my phone. I click sign in put in my apple id and it does not show me as logged in.
    Last issue I have is I have deleted and installed the Apple Store App and it tells me goto settings and use iTunes & App Store menu.
    Oh and when I update my apps on the phone I still have to click the update apps when I connect phone to iTunes.
    Any help trying to fix these issues would be greatly appreciated.

    Well then it is somewhere on one of your Home pages or in a Folder:
    Do a spotlight search to see if it accidently got moved into a Folder: Swipe down in the center of the screen to bring up the Spotlight search and type in iTunes. If it is in a folder, the folder name will show up to the right.
    If it is not in a folder, but shows up on the Spotlight search, then you need to look at each Home screen to see if you can find where it got moved to.
    Finally, you can go to Settings>General>Reset>Reset Home Screen Layout, which will reorganize all of your icons so that the original Apple core apps are on the first Home screen as they were originally. Of course, if you have a lot of app icons that you have set up on specific Home screens you would have to move them all back to where you wanted them. But that should put the iTunes icon back on the first Home screen.

  • Why can't I open videos in my emails on Iphone 3gs

    I cannot open videos on my iphone 3gs sent in my emails. It will appear to start to open then stop.
    It continually shows the message "0 time remaining on download".  In some cases it will not even
    show the video square to click on to open, but no problem on my computer with the same sent
    video. Advice please.

    Because that is how iOS 7 does it. To make a suggestion to Apple:

  • Why can't I send a text message while talking on the phone?

    Today I was on the phone and received an important text.  I tried to answer it, but received the message that it was not delivered.  I had to end my call to send the text.  Why can't I send a text or get directions from Google Maps while I am on the call?

    Google Voice allows texting (and is useful for other things as well). If you're not in the U.S., I don't have any suggestions beyond searching the App Store for "Text" or "SMS". In the U.S., there are a number of apps that allow texting to other people who have the app (much the same way iMessage works) but there are a few that will also allow texting to other phones.
    Best of luck.

  • Why can't I open a FCE project file that I have saved? (It now says ZERO kb

    Hello...
    I have just started working on a project in Final Cut Express - I render, save, and close out of FCE - but, when I go back to FCE, the project I was working on does not open.
    Why can't I open a project file that I have saved?
    Here was my process in a nutshell:
    ~ When I opened FCE, I went the System Preferences and set the Scratch Disks to a folder on my external hard drive.
    ~Then, I went to File - New Project - worked on the project for a while (including creating bins, importing images and video, and creating a sequence.
    ~I saved the project file to the same folder that I set my Scratch Disks to.
    as often throughout this process.)
    ~When I was done, I saved again andd closed FCE.
    ~Then, soon after, I opened FCE again and my project did not open automatically.
    ~So, I clicked File - Open Recent - browsed to and chose the project file name and FCE gave me a "Unable to open file" message.
    ~When I check to see if the project file actually saved to my external hard drive, the name appears, but it says the file size is ZERO kb.
    I have done this twice with the same unfortunate result. What am I doing wrong? I have worked on FCE on this same computer before, setting the Scratch Disks the same way, and I did not have this problem.
    Please help. Thank you so much for your feedback.
    ...Rae

    Are you sure you are trying to open the project file you actually saved ?
    Try using Spotlight to search for your project file name. I might be wrong, but I guess you try to open an empty copy while your real project file (what you saved) is somewhere else in either your startup disk (Documents folder ?) or the external drive. If so do not use Open Recent in FCE but simply double click the "real" project file.

  • Why can't I open a PDF in Word?  I have Microsoft Office:Mac 2011

    Why can't I open a PDF document in Word.  I have Microsoft Office:Mac 2011 installed because I have to email PDF and word documents to my clients.  Please help. 
    I currently have been viewing them in Preview.  Is that the only way? 

    Word is a text processor, not a PDF viewer. You can embed a PDF document in a Word document, but that's pretty much it. Besides Preview there are numerous third-party applications that can also view PDFs such as Adobe Reader.

  • I can download and open pdfs on my macbook air.  Why can't I open a pdf from a webpage?

    I can download and open pdfs on my macbook air.  Why can't I open a pdf from a webpage?

    Back up all data.
    Triple-click the line of text below to select it, the copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):
    /Library/Internet Plug-ins
    In the Finder, select
    Go > Go to Folder
    from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-G. Paste into the text box that opens (command-V), then press return.
    From the folder that opens, remove any items that have the letters “PDF” in the name. You may be prompted for your login password. Then quit and relaunch Safari, and test.
    The "Silverlight" web plugin distributed by Microsoft can also interfere with PDF display in Safari, so you may need to remove it as well, if it's present.
    If you still have the issue, repeat with this line:
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-ins
    If you don’t like the results of this procedure, restore the items from the backup you made before you started. Relaunch Safari again.
