This is happening to a friend of mine for the second time, can't find a solution. She went from a 256 iPhone where she was using 60GB total storage to a 128GB iPhone. she has somewhere over 100GB of messages/attachments stored in iCloud. Some months ago when she initially did this, the phone...

Is there a reliable way to copy VZWmessages (videos) to imac photo? There were only 3 users on a website from 2018 and they were all disatisfied and cautoned the reader not to use that VZW app. Thanks.

Last night I was going through the Messages app on my iPhone, iPad and Macbook Air (M1) and found that even though iCloud syncing was enabled, there were several threads that showed up on some devices, but not others. I determined these were threads I had deleted, but somehow the delete didn’t...

Hello everyone Is there any way (via settings or hack) to stop messages and contacts from syncing to Apple Watch? Thanks.

Think this is new to Ventura. I usually use tap to click, two finger tap for secondary click. In Messages, secondary clicking via two finger tap no longer brings up secondary click/context menu with responses like thumbs up etc. Secondary click via two finger click works fine. Two finger tap...

iPhone 15 Pro I saw this issue in iOS 17.1.1 and 17.1.2 If I get a Messages notification alert on the lock screen and tap it, it takes me straight into Messages where I can read the message. However, when I go back out, the red notification badge still shows "1" on the Messages icon. Then...

I can connect wireless (and/or by USB cable) to my car and several other cars I tested with iphone 15 pro with the new update today iOS 17.1.2 but issues in car play with Siri hanging in messages and volume control etc are still not fixed. I am unable to send a message or reply to a message...

I just got my first Apple Watch (Series 9 45mm midnight aluminum GPS+cellular). I noticed that while on cellular with my iPhone 15 turned off I cannot send SMS or receive notifications for 3rd party messaging apps. Messages come, but I must manually check. Is this true for everyone? Also...

I have not been able to send a text message or reply to a text message using Siri in Car Play since getting iPhone 15 pro with iOS 17.0.1. It was not fixed in 17.0.2 or 17.0.3 and now it is still not fixed in 17.1 I spoke to senior Apple tech support. They said it was a known issue but didn’t...

Hello, So I’ve upgraded to a 128GB iPhone from a 256GB iPhone as I decided I don’t really need that much physical storage space due to having 2TB of iCloud and everything being synced/stored in the cloud. I reduced the space being taken on my old phone, then restored the new phone from backup...

Hi all, First off, apologies if this issue has already been discussed and solved. I did quite a few searches and didn't find anything related to this specific issue I've been having. I've been running into constant storage issues with my work computer (2020 M1 MBP, Ventura). I'm unfortunately...

Question about downloading messages: I need to download all my text messages on my iPhone between myself and another number as legal evidence. There are a few thousand messages. Ideally I'd like a copy of them as PDF. I tried AnyTrans and iExplorer but neither worked for me on MacOS 13.2.1...

For the past 4 or 5 days now, I've had issues with the Messages app on my watch (Series 5 GPS, watchOS 9.4, paired to an iPhone XS on 16.4.1) which manifests in a few different ways. The first is that Messages notifications usually don't work. I will sometimes get a haptic or a sound...

I haven't deleted individual texts for a good few years, since after iOS 7 (I think) it became insanely difficult to delete texts, where scrolling up and causing the app to load it would unselect all texts. Anyways, I thought, surely this would be fixed by now! Apparently not. iOS 16.3.1 and it...

Hi guys, I recently reinstalled my Apple Mail and setup my imap accounts. I tried moving messages that were in a subfolder (563 messages altogether) under the account name into the 'Sent' folder with the paper airplane icon. It looked like it was transfering but then I got an error that it...

Hello, I had been syncing my Messages through iCloud from my iPhone to my Mac. At the beginning it was working fine, but recently I have been running into all kinds of troubles with SMS group chats splitting into separate threads. At first it was one person's messages in a separate thread, then...

At some point during the latest iOS updates something happened with the option that blocks "Account changes" under Screen Time's Content and privacy restrictions. Before the problem started, when you activated this option the whole contents under the section Settings > Messages were blocked, you...

None of my contacts have the country code in their phone number. When someone texts me from a number that does contain it, Messages only recognizes that person by their phone number rather than their name. Anyone else noticing this? Is there a solution?

I noticed something odd on the messages app specifically on macOS Ventura. If I have messages opened and click the search bar I see suggestions of numbers to interact with. All of them are text numbers and not those tied to iMessages. Most of them are from those spam text messages that have...

I have been an iOS user since the iPhone 4 and love the mobile OS, but certain things still puzzle me. How is it that in 2022 we are still unable to search from within a single conversation in iOS Messages? Almost all major messaging apps like Facebook Messenger, Whatsapp, and others offer this...
