I was wondering what cocoa framework (Swift) to use to pull up a list of contacts for a person (if they allow access) and then if they click on one of them, to open up messages to send a message to that friend with a link to the app.  I know Apple provides the contacts framework, but how to send the message itself?

In older versions of iOS, the Messages app had an i character in a circle which allowed us to send our current location to the other person. The location could be one-time snapshot of location, or a location updateable for a certain amount of time.   The i-in-circle is gone in current iOS.   Can I send current location in Messages?

The voicemail on my iPhone used to work well, so basically if I click the voicemail button on the interface of Phoneapp, I would get a list of voicemail that I can choose from and listen to.  But recently, I found that whenever I click the voicemail button, I was transferred to a call as shown below and it looks pretty much like a virus to me.     Click the voicemail button on the lower right corner,        You will be automatically transferred to a call,     Is this a virus or some mis-configuration of my iPhone?

I would like to receive an email when someone sends me a message on Facebook. This used to happen by default.  Is it still possible to set it up somehow?  Update (Dec/12):  Mehper C. Palavuzlar's solution stopped working for me (and apparently for at least some other users) AND I have stopped receiving email notifications AGAIN.  Are email notifications still available?   The screen now looks this way:

Is there some way to contact another user by using their name in chat, so that they get notified?  It seems that when discussion starts in a comment thread, it is easiest, instead of migrating the entire set of comments, just to start talking about the topic in chat. But to get someone to go there, one continues in the comment thread to say 'hey, let's go to chat'.  Using @ThePersonsNameYouWantToChatWith in chat doesn't seem to give them a notification; how can one notify them that you are said something in chat to them?

I used to have an iPhone, but I changed to an android (shock, horror!). Unfortunately Apple refuses to let me go and whenever friends message me the messages get sent as iMessages (unless they remember to specifically chnge the format). I never get these messages. They never get resent as SMSs automatically as is supposed to happen. How can I get my phone number deleted from the iMessage list. I've turned off iMessage on the old iPhone.

I have a lot of mail traffic on my phone. But I want to be notified only for mail from certain contacts like my family, colleagues/boss, critical automated systems or at least any contact in my phone contact list (with email typed in).  Are there such applications which can access email on my personal/corporate server? Standard IMAP (or at least POP3) + SMTP, not some proprietary protocols like Exchange/Gmail.

Is there an Android App that can perform one ring for anyone in my Contacts and another ring for anyone not in my Contacts?  I know how to go in and set individual ringtones, but I have 350 contacts.  Actually, all I would need is an App that sets a ringtone for any number that is not in my Contacts list.  If not, would that be difficult to create?

The iOS app has no convenient way to get from a main site to its Meta. You have to go to the full site list and search for the specific Meta you want.  Could a link be provided somewhere? My first thought would be for a tap or tap-and-hold on the site name at the top of the Questions tab to pop up a "menu" with a link to the Meta (see the Taskpaper iOS app for this behavior). The Meta should likewise provide a link back to Main.

I am trying to runa  query in a .js button to pull out an ID of a contact that is associated with a record so I can auto send an  document.  However I can not get this working, my googling skills have been made defective by this!  Basically I have a button that runs a URL and sends a document to EchoSign to be sent out, but it needs to be sent to the most recent contact that was sent an EchoSign document.  Example below:  var contactCheck = sforce.connection.query("SELECT echosign_dev1__Recipient__c FROM echosign_dev1__SIGN_Agreement__c WHERE echosign_dev1__Account__c = '{!Account.Id}' AND echosign_dev1__Status__c = 'Signed'");   I'm still very new to .js so I am not 100% sure if I am doing things correctly, but I have seen the following 2 ways of pulling out just the ID and neither work:  var contactId = templateId.records[0].Id; var contactId = contactCheck.records[i].get("Id"));   Can anyone help? This is stressing me out... I am going to turn prematurely grey at the age of 22

I want to send "Happy Thanksgiving!" to 35 different people, but I do not want it to be treated as a group message. How can this be accomplished on the iPhone 4S (with or without jailbreak applications, such as biteSMS) with iOS 5.1.1?  The reasons that I would not want it treated as a group message are:   I do not want the recipients to see the numbers of other recipients I do not want the recipients' replies to go to multiple people I do not want the recipients' replies to be grouped in a group message, but to instead be part of each individual thread depending on the message, I may specifically not want a given recipient to know that other recipients received the same message.   Optimally, the solution would also allow pictures to be attached and would automatically send iMessages instead of text messages to iOS users - but those parts are less important than being able to send plain text messages.

I've read numerous posts about people having problems with viewWillAppear when you do not create your view hierarchy just right. My problem is I can't figure out what that means.  If I create a RootViewController and call addSubView on that controller, I would expect the added view(s) to be wired up for viewWillAppear events.   Does anyone have an example of a complex programmatic view hierarchy that successfully receives viewWillAppear events at every level?  Apple's Docs state:     Warning: If the view belonging to a view controller is added to a view hierarchy directly, the view controller will not receive this message. If you insert or add a view to the view hierarchy, and it has a view controller, you should send the associated view controller this message directly. Failing to send the view controller this message will prevent any associated animation from being displayed.   The problem is that they don't describe how to do this. What does "directly" mean? How do you "indirectly" add a view?  I am fairly new to Cocoa and iPhone so it would be nice if there were useful examples from Apple besides the basic Hello World crap.

I have accepted a few invites from the top navbar button, but then I realised some had possibly useful or interesting messages attached.  How can I retrieve LinkedIn invitation messages in the 2015 redesigned messaging system?

There has been quite a few times that I wished I could send a message to another user on SO - not ask a question for everyone to see, but just a short message informing them of something or requesting them to do something.  Are there any plans to allow this to happen in the future?  Related:
