May 26, 2014 8:49 PM in response to NerevarRebornby habcor,I think I understand what the poster meant as I am looking for it myself.
What he want is, instead of typing/composing messages though his phone, he will do it directly on the computer and send it, of course it still uses the cellular capabilities of the phone but with less hassle.
This is already been done before by Nokia through their Nokia PC Suite (and do mind, it's not a smartphone era yet), I've tested it before and I'm sure it works and it's possible. Basically what happens is, you connect your phone to your computer through usb/bt on their PC suite and you can open their message center and directly compose messages from there and send. The message of course is still stored in the phone only you didn't compose in your phone.
You can google for send text through nokia pc suite and see what I mean.
Although at this point, I don't have any clues if this is possible in iPhone as I am still looking for myself. So if anyone has an idea on how to do it, please share.
Please correct me if I'm wrong and if it's ok to mention other brand name here.

Oct 9, 2014 7:49 AM in response to NerevarRebornby Alfred DeRose,Apple will soon release Mac OS X Yosemite which allows you to do that through the phone itself but not for Windows.
But that may not be necessary. Many mobile operators provide a web portal to send text messages through your account. Why not try that?

Jun 18, 2015 3:00 AM in response to NerevarRebornby Louiedog,This was something that I used to be able to do years ago (around 2010) with my Nokia n8 - there was a window that opened in Nokia Suite (similar to this one I'm typing in) and when you hit send, it went off as an SMS and the message thread was on your phone (as if you'd typed it on your handset). A very useful piece of software to have available as it is so annoying having to tap away when you receive a text whilst sat at the PC. I don't know that Nokia / Microsoft even still have this anymore - I will check it out now I think. But yes, I wish Apple would roll out something similar.

Aug 8, 2015 3:50 AM in response to Louiedogby FirstSpear,Yep, I could do this ages ago with my old Sony Eriksson phone using the company's free phone suite, with the phone connected by USB. I'm looking, too. The mentioned app, MyPhoneDesktop, available now on the AppStore, claims to do it, but the reviews aren't good, and it's not free. Pity, typing long texts on my 4S is painful.

Dec 3, 2015 10:53 AM in response to NerevarRebornby Up-Dry-3 Olives,Don't know if this helps as it doesn't really send through Apple Message, but Verizon allows you to send messages from your PC via your mobile number. Responses show up both on my PC as well as on my iPhone. However, messages I send from my PC to someone on Apple Message show up only on the PC. You sign into the messaging portal with your Verizon account to send via a browser, or there is a free app (Message+) you can download and use without a browser. The Verizon links are provided below. Not sure if your provider offers the same service. Hope it helps!
