How can I send iMessages to one contact but text messages to the rest?

Thanks,
Jonathan

My girlfriend lives in the US and I live in Canada. I have unlimited international texting but very little data. She has iMessage but she gets charged for incoming international texts.
So, I want to use iMessage only for her (so she won't get charged) and text for everyone else since I have little data and I already have unlimited texting.
Just as clarification.
Thanks

  • How can I send a home video via a text message?

    Hello,
    I had a video that I created on my camera and then transferred to my PC. Then I added it to iTunes Version 11. Then I converted it in iTunes from "Home Video" to "Movie". On my iPhone 4 (iOS7), I go to messages, hit camera icon and the video isn't there in my videos section. How can I move the video into the "Videos" section so that I can send this video via text message?
    Thanks!

    Hello Chris Miller,
    Of course I did. I certainly would not have suggested doing something I haven't tried to do myself. Would You? I wouldn't unless we are experimenting with something, but this is not the case here.
    I also mentioned to lexlizandtay to watch the filesize.
    Many ISP's have a 10 MB limit on sending or receiving emails.
    I also said in my above post "Works for Me"......
    I have a 3.8 MB Podcast that was downloaded straight from Apple. I can send this without any problems the way I mentioned above.
    I also have other podcasts that I made myself using GarageBand or Quicktime that work just fine.
    Give it a try.

  • Can't send iMessage to one person

    I just got my iPhone 6 yesterday and its already giving me problems. I can't send imessages to one contact which happens to be my boyfriend. on my iPhone 5 which had iOS 8 it was fine but now nothing. it was working fine for a bit but just stopped working an hour ago. I tried rebooting my phone, restarting the thread, restarting all the networks, sending as texts, literally everything and nothing works. please help me fix this, out of every contact it's my boyfriend who just lost his best friend and I can't even text him back. I'm so frustrated and can't make my way to an apple store for another 6 hours.

    Hi there katie22xo.
    According to the article below, it looks like you may need delete the thread and create a new one.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages 
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.

  • How can I send more than one foto in a email

    How can I send more than one foto in a email?

    Or, to send up to 5 photos in one email, open the Photos app, go to the Album containing the photos, tap Select, tap up to 5 photos (a blue tick will appear on them), then tap the Share icon (square with arrow pointing up) and choose Mail.
    If you choose more than 5 photos this way, you won't get the Mail option.

    ACTIVATING FACETIME AND IMESSAGES
    Activating Facetime and Imessages on your phone requires the ability to send SMS messages and depending upon where you are that might be an international SMS.  Check with your carrier to see if your plan supports sending of international SMS messages.  If you are having trouble activating Facetime or Imessages turn them both off on your device and reset the device (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost)).  Wait for the device to restart and wait a minute and turn Facetime and imessage back on and wait for activation.  If that does not fix things read the following articles:

    In messages next to where you would normally enter text you'll see a mic button. Press and hold the button to record your message. When done let go and a control circle will appear with a x to delete the recording, a play button to check your message, and upward arrow to send the message.

  • Can you send iMessages from one iPad to another? If so how can I do this? Thanks

    I have just got a new iPad and I'm wondering if you can send iMessages from one iPad to another? We are currently trying this out and can only send iMessages from an iPad to an iPhone is this correct? Thanks

    You can use the Messages app to send messages to any iOS device or to a Mac running Mountain Lion. So yes you can send a message to another iPad.
    Both iPads have to have Messages set up and you need to contact the other iPad using an email addresses as the "you can be reached at" email address.
    Do you have it set up correctly on both iPads?

  • Can't send iMessage to one of my contacts!

    I suddenly cannot send iMessage to one of my contacts, but i 100% sure that person phone is turned on, imessage is work and did not block me. As that person can send me iMessage. And i have already tried all the steps to solve it, such as
    Restart your device.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact in the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    Back up and restore your device as new.
    but all did not work. Please help!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Hey newgen5015,
    I understand that your iMessage seems to work normally with everyone except your father. To troubleshoot the issue, I would follow these steps on both of the devices:
    Restart your device.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and re-create the contact in the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    Back up and restore your device as new.

    Do one step on both devices, then test, and if it doesn't work move to the next step and repeat. If you run through all of them on both devices, it should resolve the issue.
