CFM Frodo Posted July 27, 2020 CFM Report Posted July 27, 2020 Does anyone know how I can text message from my desk top to a phone? I want to send a picture to a email address or text I have tried sending to the email address. E-mail address @ provider did not go I tried sending as a sms type the phone number @ provider did not go what is the trick? Quote
garypl Posted July 27, 2020 Report Posted July 27, 2020 (edited) Send the email to yourself, then open on your phone, copy the information, and forward as a text message - easy to do! (Assuming you can access your email on your phone!) Edited July 27, 2020 by garypl clarification Quote
Members Retswerb Posted July 28, 2020 Members Report Posted July 28, 2020 As @garypl said I think that’s easiest. Only other option involves using a service like google hangouts that allows to send directly. Quote
Members Ed in Tx Posted August 15, 2020 Members Report Posted August 15, 2020 Your issue may be the size of the file you are trying to send. Some carriers restrict the file sizes in emails and text messages. Why don't you just use your USB cable and transfer it directly from you desktop to phone? Quote
Northmount Posted August 16, 2020 Report Posted August 16, 2020 (edited) You can send text messages (SMS) from your computer using Skype. https://support.skype.com/en/faq/FA34828/how-do-i-send-sms-text-messages-in-skype?q=sms Need to buy some Skype credit to be able to text (SMS) from Skype.
