Ari, good questions. I always do an encripted backup to iTunes, no idea where voicemails would be stored in it. I checked in iCloud settings; mail is off. I tried to turn it on, and it asked about creating a free iCloud email account which I don’t need. So this setting means nothing apparently. Where do you turn on visual voicemail? I should know but cannot find it. I believe it’s on, but I’m not seeing it in settings anywhere.
Thanks. Paul From: [email protected] Sent: Saturday, October 29, 2016 1:44 PM To: [email protected] Subject: Re: are my voicemails gone forever now that I upgraded That's strange. I've never had voicemail disappear on me, nor emails. I do make certain to do an encrypted backup in iTunes before updating to any iOS version, however. I would recommend doing so. Also, do you have visual voicemail enabled, or are you using your carrier's voicemail option? I don't think using your carrier's voicemail option would make any difference, but ever since I got my first iPhone, I've always used the visual voicemail option, and it's worked well for me.

In the last 18 months, I had two voicemails I saved and wanted to keep forever; however, I forgot about my old ones disappearing. I couldn’t care less about the email; the voice mail—totally different thing. Is there anything at all I can do to retrieve them, or are they, as I suspect, permanently gone. Thanks.
