MacOSG: How to print iPhone text messages

Posted by Daniel East Aug 31, 2008 at 6:52pm

First of all, you need to get at your text messages. You could jailbreak your iPhone and SSH into it, but Chis Breen from Macworld came up with an easier way. Use Ecamm Networks’ PhoneView.

“Ecamm Networks’ PhoneView’s has many talents (including using your iPhone as a storage device when connected to your Mac, copying the iPhone’s music, videos, and photos to your computer; and viewing and editing the iPhone’s notes) you can export the phone’s SMS messages as text files, which you can then print.

It’s easy to use. Install it, plug in your iPhone, and PhoneView launches. To access the phone’s SMS messages, just click the SMS entry on the left side of the PhoneView window. You can copy individual messages, Command-click to copy several messages (helpful when you want to copy just those messages that are part of a particular conversation), or copy all messages by selecting one message, pressing Command-A to select them all, and clicking the Copy From iPhone button at the top of the window.”
