I accidentally deleted a conversation of iMessages. Is there any possible way to get them back? I meant to only delete one text but I didn't realize it would delete all of them.

When your phone backs up to iCloud or iTunes, it backs up the messages. If you do a restore before overwriting the backup you can get the messages back.

Unfortunately, once iMessages are deleted you can't recover them.

So, if they're not in my phone anymore, Verizon can't somehow get them for me?.....

imessage is not a Verizon app so they have no control over your messages.

OK. Thank you. So, if I accidentally delete regular text messages, could Verizon recovered those for me?

No. Unless you backed them up and were only having trouble accessing your Verizon cloud, in which case they would help you.

Do you have a back up to iCloud? That may have your text messages if you do a restore. That is the only way I know.

Thank you so much for trying to help. This is very discouraging. I do have things backed up to iCloud but I cannot see how to have my messages backed up there so I don't think they are there.
Very sad.
