Messages Will be Available Only to OS X Mountain Lion Users After Beta

Administrator — Fri, 17 Feb 2012 01:15:09 +0000

Here’s the deal though man. Apple can do whatever they want with their own software. If they choose not to support past OS, there’s nothing anyone can do about it. You can call them nazi’s all you want, but the reality is, it’s theirs, and if you choose to use it, buy it, upgrade, just find another option that’s better suited for you. What about Windows crap? They have new OS constantly, quit supporting programs, force upgrades on others, and you still have to wait ten minutes for your computer to start up, only to have it have to restart before these changes can take place… I’ll take a Mac any day of the week, and should I want iMessage, I’ll upgrade for it. And I won’t call ‘em nazi’s because they build a better machine.

How to Fix iMessage Bug That Prevents Messages From Being Sent to Users Who Have Switched From an iPhone

Administrator — Fri, 30 Dec 2011 16:48:17 +0000

If you’ve family and friends who have recently switched to an Android (we hope you tried your best to convince them against it) then here’s a tip that you might want to give them.
It looks like iPhone users who switched to an Android based smartphone (or any other mobile phone) may not be getting text messages from an iPhone user.
Due to a iMessage bug when an iPhone user tries to send a SMS to an ex-iPhone user, the Messages app tries to send the SMS as an iMessage, but since the user is no longer using the iPhone , the delivery of the text message fails.
Ideally, even if iPhone tries to send the SMS as an iMessage the first time, it should try to resend the message as an SMS if the delivery of the iMessage fails to avoid this issue.

iMessage includes a number of features to the Messages app, which you can check
, but Apple has also resolved one of the minor irritants.
If you are a heavy SMS user, you might have noticed that the keyboard occupies half the screen with no way to hide it, which is not convenient when you just want to look at the message history.
Apple has fixed this irritant in iOS 5. You can now hide the keyboard in the Messages app, by tapping on top of the text box and swiping downwards.
If you want to hide the keyboard in iOS 4.x.x then it’s possible if you’ve jailbroken your iOS device and installed SMSHideKeyboard or

It’s another minor feature, but we’re glad that it is finally possible to hide the keyboard in the Messages app. What about you?
