Why does my iphone 4 not deleting my messages. I delete the message my messages then it messes with the other messages i have. I restart my phone everything goes back to normal and the message i been trying to delete is still there. What do i do?
iPhone 4, iOS 7.0.2
I am seeing the same thing. In my Usage my phone is showing that I have 12GB of messages, which seems crazy, so I went in and deleted all my conversations, went back to Usage and it still showed 12GB of saved messages. So I bounced the phone, and most of the messages reappeared!
Pretty frustrating that there's no easy way to clean up my messages. (easy way to delete convos older than 6 months, or delete all, or keep only 5GB, etc would be nice).
What did you do to fix it? If you did.
Make sure that you are not saving your messages to iCloud.
How i know if i have it on? How do i take it off ?
Try this and let me know if it helps you:
Settings > iCloud > make sure "Documents & Data" is turned off
That definitely was the problem , thanks alot.
That didn't fix the problem for me, I turned Doc & Data off in iCloud settings, deleted most of my conversations, bounced the phone, and they all came back.
bounced the iphone???
aka rebooted
Yea it didnt work for me either. Started at first then stopped. Any other suggestions ?
Same here i dont know what's going on anymore.
Found more info at MacRumors. I guess it was a bug and now there's no easy way for me to delete the attachments in old messages.
I see something bout reseting all settings , did you try it ? If so dif it work ?
I did not update to iOS 7.0.2.....
We will have to see whats going on with that, sorry it ultimately didnt help..
Happened before 7.0.2 when i switched to ios 7 it started acting like this . Thanks for your help if you get any more options i can use feel free.
