Why is texting so slow on my phone

Why is my texting so slow on my iPhone after the 7 push

I am experiencing the same problem.  After updating iOS7 and continuing after updating iOS7.0.2 my iphone5 continues to take about 8 seconds to recognize an typed character.  It appeared first with a delay of recognizing the typed in 4 digit passcode, then I noticed that Messages (texting) is stricken with the same 8 second per character delay.  The Facebook application and Settings are also affected.  All other applications are affected.  What is not delayed are any strokes of the keyboard, for example moving the applications around, swiping on the screen left/right or up/down.  There seems to be a bug in the "keyboard interface".  I have attempted a number of shutdown/resets, which included a powering down, and a home button+power button reset combo.  Any other thoughts?

  • Why does new update slow down my phone 4?

    I have downloaded the new update and my phone is acting so messed up. Any info as to why, and possible fixes? Screen freezes, takes a long time to move from page to page and loads pages slow. Any info is appreciated.

    Thats a hard question to answer.  The iPhone 4 has older technology than newer models which can cause the device to lag.  Depending on what data and settings you have on the device, it could run slower.  I would probably make sure to constantly close apps in multitasking and possible think about restoring the device as a new device.  Make sure to backup your data prior to the restore

  • Why do text messages from one att phone come in garbled like %^&KYY

    my girlfriend has a blackberry storm 9550.
    all works well with only one exception.
    when her sister, who has an ATT phone, sends her text messages they appear to be all scrambled.
    no other messages from anybody else ever comes in like that....any ideas why this happens?
    this is driving both of them crazy and we dont know how to fix the problem.
    thanks
    Rock

    Also ask her if she's trying to use any strange characters in the message. Generally, that's a problem the other way (iPhone emoji often show up as gibberish or cause complete message corruption on non-iphones) but, it's worth a question.
    Best of luck.

  • Why you tube is slow in i phone 4s

    why you tube is so slow in iphone 4s

    Are you using a mains charger or trying to charge it from the USB port? Many (older) USB ports have insufficient power to charge IOS devices.  Does it show the 'charging' symbol on the battery icon? Do you have a different cable you could try as yours may be faulty.
    Is it a new phone or one that has previously charged ok?

  • I have 2 phones on my iTunes account, why are text messages showing on the second phone when sent from the first

    I have 2 phones on my iTunes account, why are text messages showing on the second phone when sent from the first phone?

    it's meant to work like that
    so if you receive a message on your iphone you also get it on your ipad or ipod touch
    to avoid it use separate appleID for each device
    or turn off imessage on 1 or both devices in their settings
    but that will not fix the issue that 2 devices using the same appleID will never be able to facetime eachother
    the appleID is a unique handle for 1 user only

  • Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.

    Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.

    You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.

  • Why is internett so slow with Airport express???

    Hi!
    I have a mac mini and a pc.
    I sometimes think that my mac mini is so slow when I use Internett.
    There is a norwegian page that I have tested it on... and the answere was alarmin:
    My pc had a connection of: about 4000 kbit/s connected to wireless and airport express... and about 6000 with out wireless.... hmmmm I tested it many times...
    My mac mini (which is in my livingroom) had a connection at only 919 kbit/s????
    why is it sooooooo slow???? can I do anything to speed it up????

    Great Henry,
    That was great advice, I have been unofficially been working in WiFi for my school and this is one of the most clear responces I've seen from discussions. Anyways some things that I do believe that you forgot was cordless phones 2.4Ghz range, microwave ovens, DSS (Direct Satellite Service), Electrical things like power lines, Other airport/WiFi stations, and moving objects made of metal between the computer and base station. Those are all broad things. Usually things like that won't effect it but it really depends. For the cordless phone you just need to change the channel on the airport. I hope that helps, Good Luck!

    PS I have found that sometimes its just plain wackey, usually cause of wires and such things in the walls

  • Have changed from I phone too samsung galaxy 4 but cannot receive texts from people with I phones can u help please

    Hi can you tell me why I can not receive text messages from a I phone too my samsung galaxy s4 having had a I phone before

    Agreed.  Should not be an issue if they use text messages.   iMessage will NOT work to a non Apple device.
    I have the GS3 and a house full of Apple products.   I really love the phone and am hoping to get the Note 3 in a few months.
    Have you added 'SmoothSync for Cloud' to your accounts in the settings?   This allows mail, calendar and contacts to sync between your Apple and Galaxy.
    you should also add DropBox
    You might look at Swiftkey as your keyboard as it is much better than the stock keyboard.
    I also paid for Enpass, which is an encrypted password storage.   It syncs back and forth with dropbox. 

  • Why do text variables using Running Header character style translate forced returns as a word space in the running head on the first page but close up the space on subsequent pages?

    In an InDesign document that requires 3 different Chapter head paragraph styles (to cope with differrent length headings) I've set up the running heads on the master page with a text variable using the Running header (character style) option. The character style I've assigned to this is an empty character style that is applied to all 3 chapter head paragraph styles.
    Some chapter heads require a forced line break, so that the line breaks are aethesically pleasing. On the first page the text variable translates this forced line break as a word space in the running head, but on subsequent pages it ignores the forced line break. This means that if you have a word space before the forced line break, on the first page you get a double word space and on subsequent pages the running head sets correctly with a single word space. But if you remove the word space before the forced line break in the chapter head text, the first running head sets correctly with forced line break interpreted as a single word space, but on subsequest pages the space is closed up.
    This only seems to be a problem when the character style option is used for header text variables. If a paragraph style is used the forrced line break is interpreted as a a single word space in all instances, both on the foirst page and subsequent pages.
    This would appear to be a bug in how text variables are applied when using the Running header (character style) option. I can't see any other reason why the text variable would beheave differently on the first page and on subsequent pages. There is only one master page, so it isn't a case of their being an error between a main master page and a chapter opener master page.
    Does anyone have any solutionss, or know if this problem has been fixed in subsequent releases of InDesign (I'm using CS6 ID version 8.0)
    Thanks

  • I just bought a second iPhone for my business... I used my existing apple account and now all my texts are coming to both phones.. How do I get a secondary apple ID and change it on my business phone?

    I used my existing apple ID when I purchased a second iPhone for my business.. Now all my texts are coming to both phones.. Is there a way to create a new apple account for my business phone and if so.. How do I delete one and add another?

    Yes, you can have two separate Apple IDs, and it's pretty easy to set this up. Go into Settings > iTunes & App Store on your business phone. You should see your current Apple ID. Tap on it, then tap on sign out. You can then create a new Apple ID, using a different email address and password than those associated with the Apple ID on your other phone. Log back in using this new information, and you shouldn't get the texts that come to your other phone.
    Hope this helped!

  • I have the new iOS 7 and am getting texts from another family members phone and they are getting mine how do I disable this without changing accounts

    I have the new iOS 7 and am getting texts from another family members phone and they are getting mine how do I disable this without changing accounts

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    You could simply set each device to only use a single telephone number (settings > messages > send & receive, but this isn't really an ideal solution since the other person can always change their settings and see your messages and send messages that appear as if they are from you. There is only one real solution and that's to have your own accounts.
