Can I receive messages from Skype when my ipad is in sleep mode and the app is closed?

Ok, can I receive messages from Skype when my ipad and iPod touch are off, and the app is closed? Becuase my mom sent me a message and I did nott receive it. I have to have the app running or running in the background to receive messages. Is there a way to recieve messages when my ipad and ipod do NOT have the app running?

The ipad may keep a connection alive in sleep mode.. but it should only use local connection AFAIK, and no internet content.
I have a similar setup with iPad and although it has an IP it is not actually reachable on the network. I will track usage and see if it is actually using anything but I would doubt it.
Now of course it may depend on what apps you have running. I really doubt the ipad will be using that much of your download unless you are watching movies on it.

  • Not receiving messages from Skype on my ipad and iPod touch 5gen

    IPod touch 5 gen 32 gig black IOS 7.0.2

    I am not receiving messages on my ipad and iPod touch from Skype, it won't come thru,  I've tried reboot and hard reset, but nothing works, I reinstalled Skype, and nothing works.

    I had this same problem also.  The problem has to do with your credit card number associated with you iCloud account.  To solve this problem, you need to update your credit card/payment information by doing the following on your iPad / iPhone / iTouch:
         Settings > iCloud > click on your account > Payment Information
    Update this section with your correct credit card information and Save.

  • CAN I RECEIVE MESSAGE FROM MY CELLULAR SERVICE PROVIDER IN MY iPAD MINI CELLULAR ?

    Hi Using iPad,
    Can I receive message from my cellular service provider in my iPad mini cellular?

    I Picked This Username wrote:
    Be aware though..
    If you send an iMessage to an iPhone that isn't using WiFi, they will be charged for receiving the message..
    The same goes with the iPad sending the message: if you are not using WiFi..
    That is incorrect. No cell carrier charges for a message sent by and received by iMessage other than any relevant data charges. The carrier doesn't even know the message is any different from an email message or any other standard Internet traffic. Only if the iPhone was not set up to iMessage and hence receives the message via SMS would there perhaps be a charge, and that will depend on the cell plan. The iPad cannot receive messages via SMS at all so there will never be a charge.

  • Usage of WndProc for receiving message from skype c#

    the source code which i run and got the success.
    i follow the everything but my application is not working. the main problem is regarding receiving message from skype through
    WndProc() function. my WndProc() function is calling only once but the application which i download there i saw their
    WndProc() function is calling repeatedly for getting message from skype. i am trying for long time to capture the skype conversation but still no luck.
    i already post few questions for capturing the skype conversation in this forum but not getting no expected clue. here i attach the link of my win application and that is
    https://onedrive.live.com/#cid=C4A6F16F34D7540A&id=C4A6F16F34D7540A!126 just download the skypecalltest and run it and definitely notice that
    WndProc() function is calling repeatedly for getting message from skype.
    here is my WndProc() body
    protected override void WndProc(ref Message m)
    Boolean handled = false;
    if (m.Msg == NativeCalls.APIAttach && (uint)m.LParam == NativeCalls.SKYPECONTROLAPI_ATTACH_SUCCESS)
    // Get the current handle to the Skype window
    NativeCalls.HWND_BROADCAST = m.WParam;
    handled = true;
    m.Result = new IntPtr(1);
    // Skype sends our program messages using WM_COPYDATA. the data is in lParam
    if (m.Msg == NativeCalls.WM_COPYDATA && m.WParam == NativeCalls.HWND_BROADCAST)
    COPYDATASTRUCT data = (COPYDATASTRUCT) Marshal.PtrToStructure(m.LParam, typeof(COPYDATASTRUCT));
    StatusTextBox.Items.Add(data.lpData + Environment.NewLine);
    // Check for connection
    //if (data.lpData.IndexOf("CONNSTATUS ONLINE") > -1)
    // ConnectButton.IsEnabled = false;
    // Check for calls
    IsCallInProgress(data.lpData);
    handled = true;
    m.Result = new IntPtr(1);
    m.Result = IntPtr.Zero;
    if (handled) DefWndProc(ref m); else base.WndProc(ref m);
    please please help me to capture the problem and guide me where i need to rectify as a result
    WndProc() should work as expected. thanks

  • I cannot receive messages from iphones since I got a new android device. did the change apple I'd password and whatnot...it still isn't working. what do I do?

    I cannot receive messages from iphones since I got a new android device. did the change apple I'd password and whatnot...it still isn't working. what do I do?

    Lets take first issue first: Apple does not charge a customer to 'keep' iPad access. That does not happen at apple. If you were billed and charged that amount of money from someone you were speaking to over the phone, you were not talking with Apple support. If you need to speak with apple support you are free to call them at 800MYAPPLE and they will talk to you for no more money than 19.00/ support event.
    Please read this article to asssit with imessage and factime troubleshooting.

    I'm sorry you have this happen to you - that being charged fraudulently for a non rendered service.
    Good luck to you Friend.

  • Some question about receiving messages from Skype ...

    Hello there, 
    I have a question or two about recieving messages from Skype users, who are not on my contact list" 
    1. If I have enabled to only receive messages from people in my contact list, will they be notified when they try to send me an instant message, that they need to add me first?
    2. Will I still be able to see messages sent by contacts who are not in my contact list and them see my messages*, if we are both in a Skype conversation group but not on each other's contact list? *The messages either one of us posts in the Skype group conversation
    I appreciate the information
    Thanks
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    1. The person sending this message will not receive any notification about failing message delivery. The message will just disappear in nowhere.
    2. Messages exchanged in group chats will be seen both by you and the other person, even if this person is not in your Contact List.

  • Can't receive messages from just one group. Can receive messages from each of the individuals in the group separately

    I am not receiving messages from one particular group of people on my phone.  I am receiving other group messages and can receive messages from each person in the group individually.  iPhone 5c.

    I am right there with you. This describes my problem to a T. Only other issue I am having is group texts. Iphone users who include me in a group text still send as imessages as well, so even if I text them first and they reply, it send as an imessage. Get it together apple.

  • Verizon Moto G Can't Receive Messages From Non-Verizon Phones

    I recently had my Moto G activated with a ported number from another carrier. I can make and receive calls, but can only send out text messages. I can only receive texts from friends who also have Verizon. I have dialed *228 numerous times and contacted Customer Support via chat, but to no avail. I still can't receive text messages. Please help!!

    Thank you Snn5. I was thinking it may have to do with the port process. Hopefully it will resolve itself in the next day or two. I appreciate your quick reply and advice.

Is there anything else I should do? Should I just go back to my iphone at this point.. its been over a week. please help extremely frusterated .. thank you!
    Call Apple Support.  They have a procedure that can unregister your Apple ID from iMessage and the phone number, as long as you can still receive regular text messages at the phone number on a non-iPhone.

  • Can't receive messages from certain iphones

    I can't receive text messages from other iPhones.  This is a recent problem and doesn't effect all iPhones just certain ones, any one with any ideas?

    No already tried that one.  I can text other people in my circle of friends and family which they receive but I don't receive their replies.  It doesn't occur with any other phone other than I phones.

  • Still can't receive messages from Iphone Users

    Greetings,
    I know there are many topics asking similar questions if it's googled, and I think I have read through almost all of them to no prevail. I know veterans of these boards probably get tired of seeing the same topics, but im desperate and will try to keep it quick. I really appreciate any help.
    I recently upgraded from a 4S to a Galaxy S5 and have not been able to receive messages from Iphone users since. I still have my old Iphone. Here are the steps I've tried:
    1) Ensure "IMessage" is disabled in my old phone
    2) Unregistered my phone number with my Apple ID. I currently have no phone numbers registered with them
    3) Changed my Apple ID Password
    4) Unregistered my Iphone with my ITunes Account.
    5) I also have a Macbook Air and a 2010 model IMac. I have also ensured I am signed out on those devices and my phone number isn't linked in anyway I could find.
    6) I called Apple 3 Days ago and the representitive was very nice and professional but ultimately was incorrect. He advised me that the new IoS7 is more advanced and should check about every 12 hours to see if the user on the other end has an active IMessage account. He said to wait 24 hours just to be safe. He also advised people running older IOS systems could take up to 3-4 days to contact me correctly. Furthermore he said if after that time frame their phones still sent me IMessages instead of SMS then THEY were having problems and should call Apple. I just really doubt that is the case.
    I have tested it out with 5 Iphones now with help from some friends, all running IOS7 and still no luck 3 days after the phone call to Apple.
    7) I tried logging back into IMessage today on my Macbook and it worked, I was still able to send and receive texts from Iphone users. This seems like it should not be possible since it is not linked to my phone number anymore. It is logged into the same Email that I used to have linked to my phone number.
    Now as others have said, If I have them hold down the bubble and send as text message 3 times their phone will remember and keep sending my texts, however that is unreasonable to ask everyone to do. There should just be a way to completely delete your Apple ID. Is there anything I'm possibly overlooking? I really appreciate any help.

    I am right there with you. This describes my problem to a T. Only other issue I am having is group texts. Iphone users who include me in a group text still send as imessages as well, so even if I text them first and they reply, it send as an imessage. Get it together apple.
