Suppression of media in iMessage Conversation

Is it possible to remove the media in an iMessage conversation (as in WhatsApp for example)?

Sometimes you share videos to enjoy at the present time and then not check them again. It is, they take space on your phone.

Hello jadrahme!

I can certainly understand want to erase the space once you have them shared in your conversations.  We can certainly check this!

You can delete attachments (pictures, videos, voicemails) by doing as described in the user guide: manage conversations - iPhone

Once you're in Messages and manage conversations:

Delete a message or an attachment. Tap a message or an attachment, type more, select other items if you wish, then press on .

Here, you can select multiple attachments to remove it at once.

Best wishes!

  • You want to remove iMessage conversation - need space

    I need to free up space on my 16 GB 5 s (ios 9.3.2) and there are more than 200 MB in my Messages folder.  This is due to particular iMessage conversations that I have not deleted because I need to keep.  I deleted all messages without importance and removed most of the media associated with the particular iMessage conversation, but still there is a lot of space.

    I save regularly via iTunes to Mac, import photos on the same mac and then delete media photos for free space.  The iCloud back up also updates daily (not sure if this backup imessages however).

    My question is this: iMessages are saved?   If I delete this conversation on my phone right?  I'll never be able to access it again?  If I restored the phone that they would return.   And finally, if I do a backup without these messages on the phone are they then gone also?

    I have to just print screen or copy/paste relevant messages (Notes or similar) and then delete?

    Appreciate advice.

    Thank you.

    The messages are saved.

    If you delete a message, then make a backup then the message went away.

  • How to stop iPhone to convert to the iMessage automatically when connected to the Internet?

    I have an iPhone, and some of my contacts are saved with iMessage and SMS. Whenever I start a conversation with a contact, it is a conversation of message text (green bubble), but as soon as I try to text the person while I'm connected to the internet, the conversation turns into an iMessage (blue bubble) conversation. I don't want it to do as sometimes the contact cannot be connected to the internet and therefore will not receive a my test up to connect to the Internet. How to make a conversation that began as a conversation of SMS RESTENT a SMS conversation, whereas if I don't want to start a conversation with the same contact iMessage, I manually converted an iMessage conversation?

    Thanks in advance guys.

    You can do that unless you put temporarily out of your data connection (settings-> cellular) or disable iMessage himself.

    But the good news is that you don't have to do either. In settings-> Messages, you will find an option called "send as SMS. If you turned it on and your receiver remains offline for a few minutes, the message will be sent as message text automatically.

    In addition, if you see the iMessage has not been delivered, you can tap and hold the bubble and will give you the ability to send as message text as well.

  • Save all attachments to iMessage

    I strongly considered upgrading my iPhone 5 recently. For me to do, I would have all my pictures stored on my computer, including attachments from iMessage conversations select. I am aware of the method which is to select each individual attachment, but he more 1,000 parts attached in this particular conversation I want to save. I was wondering if there was a less tedious way to save these attachments. I would strongly prefer to avoid using third-party applications. My iPhone is using iOS 9.2.1 and, if it helps, my MacBook Pro uses Mac OS X Version 10.6.8. Thanks in advance.

    Sorry you will need to save all attachment to your camera and then import it on your Mac.

    Not sure why you would not save when you get the photos on your camera first.

    iTunes and icloud backup includes all the message and it will transfer to your new phone if you restore from these backups.

  • How to make. To read with Windows Media Player MOV video format files

    My Kodak Zi8 video camera to use it. MOV format which do not play with the application Windows Media.  Does anyone know if there is an available Windows Update to resolve this problem?  I know that there are tools to convert the MOV format as AV1, but it's a bit complicated to do.  Y at - it a simple way to get the MOV file to play with Windows Media.  ITunes does not offer the features I want, for example to make a film of my video files.

    MOV files are QUICKTIME from APPLE files and can be played in Windows Media Player without conversion.  You will need to find a converter to convert Quicktime to WMV files, if you don't like the AVI format. Bob Larson Access MVP

  • Cannot delete the thumbnails in the Organizer - error message: error deleting MediaI

    I 23 000 pictures in my Photoshop elements catalog. I have a group of them tried to remove because I want to get rid of the tags in the file and apply new - this is another question that PES does not allow you to remove the tags in the file itself, so to start I have delete the catalog entry, use Explorer to remove the tags, and then import the cleaned file.

    So I tried to remove the thumbnails/catalog entries but not the underlying file and I get the error suppression of media. Then I copied the files over to a new directory, deleted the tags, and reimported them in PSE. Now, I still want to delete the files in the original directory. This time I check the option of also remove items from the hard drive. Guess what - the same message: Error removing media. I then used the Explorer to delete files and then tried to remove the entries from the catalog - same message: Error removing media.

    I'm stuck now. The thumbnails are still there, but not related to what it is and I can't get rid of them. By the way I have been around the loop on this several times, have optimized and repaired the catalog even if I got the message that the catalog didn't need repair.

    I managed to solve my problem. I had to download "SQLite DB browser", open the database 'catalog.pse12db' PES file, located the corresponding files in the "Media_Table" and deleted.  I was expecting some problems and thought I should remove other entries in other tables or fix the basis data, but when I started the PSE all organizer was settled. No file no problem that will not delete.

    It is a pity that Adobe does not provide a significant level of support and that such problems must be solved by the community members. Considering the amount of money they make from the sale of their products, they could at least have expert software available to address some of the issues more complex are displayed and offer advice and support.

    Hi Sylvia

    The following steps may help:

      • Check that there is a single contact for you card and it contains your name, Apple ID email address and phone number. Delete all information from your husband who may appear in your business card.
      • Make sure there is a distinct and unique contact card for your husband and that he does not understand the details of your contacts.
    • Go to settings > Mail, Contacts, calendar > in the Contacts section, check my Info using your contact card.
    • Go to settings > general > Siri > My Info - make sure your contact card is selected.
    • Go to settings > iCloud:
      • If the name and address of the Apple of your husband ID are displayed at the top: scroll to the bottom of the screen > press Sign Out > sign in with your own credentials of the Apple ID.
    • Go to settings > Messages > Send and receive > iMessage screen:

  • You can add a file to a compressor setting?

    We use a custom audio setting of compressor for Final Cut, where the audio from a video is exported in MP3 format for a Podcast feed. Everything works fine, but we would like to add an audio intro to the podcast, and the best way to do that would be for setting compressor include audio intro and attach it at the beginning of the export of Final Cut. In this way, we could hit 'export' of Final Cut and immediately download this new MP3 on our podcast. I am trying to streamline our processes and save time.

    It's a complicated question, but nobody knows if it's possible? Thank you!

    Note: We cannot put audio podcast intro in editing Final Cut, we also export a video file at the same time, that does not have the audio intro.

    The compressor is not an editor, it doesn't work like that.  What you want to do is to create your intro in your timeline in FCPX.  Make a compound Clip, or stand alone audio clip.  Just drop it in the scenario first, actually.  But now, a "Preset" compressor understand adding several media to your conversion settings.

    What I would do, is to change your Timeline, and then do one of two things.  First of all, you can duplicate this project calendar (Cmd - D), call the a new XYZ - Audio.  Insert the audio clip at the beginning (Cmd - W) and export audio.  Or you can just insert the Intro in your timeline from the start.  Once finished, export audio only, then delete the intro at the beginning and video export.

    If this is a regular series, make a library for the series.  Create a new event for each episode.  Create an event for your support of stock, which would include your audio clip Intro.  It's how we make our reality, TV show, who has recurring intros, outtros, bumper, etc.
