Why Do I keep getting random old text messages?

At least once a week, I get notification of a new text message, but it is an old text message I sent. The last message in the string is one I sent. There is no reply from the recipient. Why Why Why?

Sounds like a carrier setting, not a device problem. You should try calling ATT (your carrier) and have them reset the text messaging on your account.

Why do i keep getting blocked plug-in message

Why do I keep getting "blocked plug-in" message? I can't see video clips and this started about a month ago.

If you're sure you've installed the latest version of Flash, take each of the following steps that you haven't already tried. After each step, relaunch Safari and test. For a "missing plug-in" error, start with Step 4.
1. If you're getting a "blocked plug-in" error, then from the menu bar select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Check Now. Quit and relaunch your browser.
2. Triple-click the line below to select it:
/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
Right-click or control-click the highlighted text and select
Services ▹ Open
from the contextual menu. A folder should open. If there is more than one item in the folder with the words "Flash Player" (not "flashplayer") in the name, open the respective Info windows, check the version numbers, and delete all except the latest. You may be prompted for your login password.
3. Re-download and reinstall Flash. Download it from this page:
Adobe - Install Adobe Flash Player
Never download a Flash update from anywhere else.
4. If you get a "missing plug-in" error, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Security
from the Safari menu bar and check the box marked Enable plug-ins.
5. Select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
from the Safari menu bar. If any extensions are installed, disable them.
6. In the Safari preference window, select
Privacy ▹ Remove All Website Data
Close the window. Then select
 ▹ System Preferences… ▹ Flash Player ▹ Advanced
and click Delete All. Close the preference pane.

How do I get my old text messages from my iPhone to my new Galaxy?

Recently, I just upgraded from an iPhone 4 to a Samsung Galaxy 4. I upgraded my account from Sprint and got my new phone at Best Buy. I'm trying to get into my iTunes because I know I recently synched my iPhone on my iTunes a little over a week ago. What I'm trying to do is get into my iTunes because I know my iCloud is backed up on iTunes. I got all of my contacts and pictures already transferred from my iPhone to my Galaxy. Now, that last thing I'm really worried about is my old text messages. There is this old text message that I'm needing to save, but I can't seem to figure out how to get my old text messages to my new phone.
Is there some way I can get those back or what I need to go to Geek Squad to help me with this?

Apple has not designed the iPhone for loading up old messages across phone platforms.
Screenshot the important stuff on the Android or use a tool to archive the old SMS on your computer.

Why so I keep getting 'blocked-plug in' message! Very frustrating. Never happened before. related to Adobe Flash Player for videos. Have deleted Adobe and put the new Adobe on, but still get message. Seems others have had this same problem.

Why do I keep getting an "authentication failed" message when trying to join my network?

You may have to shut your computer off and pull the power adapter from both your ISP's Modem and your Router and wait 5 minutes and restart them in the following order.
1st your ISP's Modem and wait a minute to get your signal and lights.
2nd do the same with your Router and again you have to wait the minute.
Last restart your computer and boot in OSX use Safari.

Why do I keep getting a "system overload" message during playback?

Why do I keep getting a "system overload" message during playback? Even when I have only a few tracks playing together, I keep overloading and it stops the playback.

Purchasing iCloud storage will not help your issue. Also, if you want to upgrade, do it via iTunes rather than OTA - it doesn't require as much available storage to do it that way.
To check to see what is taking up so much of your storage, go to Settings>General>Usage>Manage Storage, and you will see a list of the items on your device and the amount of storage they are taking up.
T-mobile's offer of the 64GB iPhone 6 to new or additional line customers has nothing to do with Apple. You need to take that up with T-mobile.

Why can't I delete my old text messages?

I'm trying to get rid from stuff from my iPhone, but most of my memory is the documents and data.
I thought I could get rid of it by deleting some of my old text messages, but it won't let me delete any ot my old texts.
Every time I try deleting a message from like a month ago my phone freezes and then whe I try to exit my messages
and reopen it, it deletes all of my messages! PLEASE HELP!

I have a 32GB iPhone 5s, am running the most current iOS (8.1.3)
None of the above steps actually accomplish PERMANENTLY DELETING OLD MESSAGES! I have over 8 GB of iMessage text messages. I have tried every suggested method of delete, from one at a time swiping, to "edit" , highlight and delete. It works in the moment, and LOOKS deleted, but doesn't actually REMOVE the messages. iMessage locks up often, then I am forced to reboot my phone. When I reboot, all messages back to 2013 are BACK ON MY PHONE!
I found a great app, and actually paid $35 to try to fix this! It allowed me to see and copy the old text and voice messages that I did want to keep. That's awesome, and I have saved to my desktop computer the files I want. Unfortunately this program doesn't have (apple) permission to delete the files.
Soooo......
I have set the "keep messages" function to only 30 days. There are STILL messages all the way back to early 2013.
I read that I needed to delete, then SYNC w/my iTunes to make them permanently go away. NOPE. THEY COME BACK.
I have done a complete restore, hoping it was just some bug, that would get cleaned out in the process. NOPE. THEY COME BACK.
In the meantime, functionality is HORRIBLE due to the fact that the app is over filled.
Someone please give me a real suggestion. PLEASE. I will be forever grateful.

How can I get my old text messages back?

The only way to recover deleted SMS/iMessages is to restore the device to a backup created after the message was sent but before it was deleted.

Why do I keep getting a storage full message after deleting most of my photo app, on 16gb iPhone6

Hey,
I just purchased the new iPhone 6 16GB.upgrade jump T-mobile not paid in full $700.Nevertheless, why do I keeping getting a message about storage full? And it says...Go to setting and manage storage with iCloud. I have deleted most of the app, photo, and just about everything else, and still keep getting this message. It's almost as if I will be paying additional 3.99-19.99 a month to manage the icloud for apps that I already had. Perhaps this is the gimmicks to order the 64GB iPhone 6. In fact, the 64GB is offered as an upgrade to new or additional line customers. Come On give us a break for the loyal customers Geezh!!
Plus can't even upgrade software update to iOS8.1.1 because there is not enough storage. What sense does that make to even upgrade to the new iPhone 6???? Hurry up and fix this problem!

Why do i keep getting a cannot find message when I import photos/videos from phone?

It seems like iphoto won't copy pics/vids from my phone. Do i have to save them in a folder for it to save????

Before anyone can help, they need information to work with. Basic stuff: What version of iPhoto. What version of the Operating System. Details. What were you doing when the problem arose? Did it ever work properly? Step-by-step descriptions of how you got to this issue. If something doesn't work, are there error messages? What are the error message? What happens when you try to do this thing? And what steps have you tried already to solve the issue. With this kind of information somebody can develop a starting point for troubleshooting the issue.
Posts that consist of "iPhoto doesn't work. Help" or "iPhoto won't print" or "Suddenly I have no photos!!!!!!!!!!" mean that a helper is simply guessing. With information, s/he may be able to get your issue resolved sooner.
