Welcome to another Decipher Tools tutorial today we're going to show you
how to save text messages from iPhone to your computer and then print them out as a
PDF document. While today's demo is on a Mac it also works on any
Windows computer. The first thing you'll want to do is download Decipher
TextMessage. Decipher TextMessage is a desktop program that lets you save and
export all your iPhone text messages photo and video attachments to your
computer. Navigate to www.deciphertools.com in your web browser.
When you click on the decipher tools website notice the little green lock in
the URL bar if you click on that you'll see that the decipher tools website is
encrypted trustworthy and secure. If you scroll down you can click on the
Decipher TextMessage product you'll be brought here to the product page. Simply
click try for free to download the free trial and then also click download.
When you download the software it will
automatically default to whatever computer you're on, Currently we're on a
Mac running this demo, however if you're on a Windows machine you'll be prompted
to download the software for Windows. After you've downloaded the program
we can simply open up the dmg installer and drag the
Decipher TextMessage icon into the Applications folder to copy it over to
our computer. If you're on a Windows machine just keep in mind that you
download the installation package and run the installer as you would with any
normal Windows program. We'll now simply navigate to our Applications folder and
open up Decipher TextMessage that we just installed. When the program
first launches there's a little backups loaded window in the background you can
just disregard. It simply reads in and gives you information about any
iTunes backups that already exist on the computer as well as what version of
Decipher TextMessage you're running. Here's the main program window. You'll
notice in the left-hand column that there are two iPhones. That means on this
computer in the past i've already backed up two different iphones via itunes. If
the left-hand column of the program is completely blank when you first launch
the software that means you first need to backup your iphone via iTunes on your
computer. If we select a device you'll notice in the
middle column you'll see all your contacts. Select a contact. We will
choose Allison and then in the far right column it shows you all your text messages with
Allison as well as any photo attachments. Today we're running the free trial
of Decipher TextMessage so we're being prompted to upgrade and register our
copy if we want to see all the text messages. The free trial of the software
will let you see save and print a few text messages from each of your contacts and
it's a great way to get a good feel for the program and whether it's right for
your needs before purchasing. We're going to go ahead and activate a device with
our license code today so we can run the full version of the software. Once
the device has been activated and we're running the paid version of the software
you'll notice a little green check mark here on the phone. That means we're
running the full version of the program for that specific device and we can save
all our text messages forever. Here are the specific steps on how to save text messages from your iPhone.
Step 1: Click on your iPhone. You will see all your contacts in the middle column. Step 2: Select a contact in the middle column. All your text messages with that person will be displayed.
