Can no longer send text messages to recipients in ...

When I create text messages in Ovi Suite, I am no longer able to send them to recipients added from my address book.  When I add a recipient, and try to send the message, I get a window that says "Recipient not valid". The numbers in my address book entries are in the format 1234-5678 (eight digits, with a hyphen in the middle).  Now I have to write down the number in the address book and type in the long, international format, such as +50612345678.  (506 is my country's code.)  Essentially, my address book is now useless, and creating SMS's in Ovi Suite now includes a very annoying step. 
This problem started sometime in the last couple of months.  I don't know which was the last version that allowed me to use numbers from my address book without complaining.  (My current version is 3.1.1.85, and it displays the message "Recipient not valid.  Recipient 1234-5678 is not valid.  Cannot send the message."   Other than upgrading Ovi Suite, I haven't changed any settings.  Is there a setting I need to change?  (If not, I'd argue that this is a recent design error in Ovi Suite, one that I hope Nokia fixes soon.)

  • Ever since I enabled iMessage on my Mac Airbook, I can no longer receive text messages from the iMessage people on my iPhone, only on my iMessage now!!  How do I get the messages to reach both iMessage and iPhone??

    Ever since I enabled iMessage on my Mac Airbook, I can no longer receive text messages from the iMessage people on my iPhone, only on my iMessage now!!  How do I get the messages to reach both iMessage and iPhone??

    We are suffering very similar issues when communicating from my iphone to a friend who has both iphone and iPad enabled.
    As long as I reply to an existing text chain, then it is visible on the target iphone.  If I SMS the phone number, it gets routed to the IPAD!!   And NO, I should not have to disable imessage when I want to send an SMS!!

  • TS3274 Why can't I send text messages to some of my people in my contact list?

    Why can't I send text messages to some of my people in my contact list? What do I have to do?

    You can send imessages to anyone who is using an Apple device (recent models).It will try to go via wifi but if it can't then it will try to send as an SMS and for that you need cellular capability.
    Does your iPad have cellular capability?  If not then you can't send to non-Apple devices through iMessage.
    Hope this helps a bit.

  • Updated OS to 10.1.0.418​1 and can no longer send texts

    I got prompted for a BB10 OS update to version 10.1.0.4181. I downloaded and installed the OS without any issues, took about 25-30 minutes. Now I can no longer send or receive text messages (every other feature seems to be working fine, including email and calling). Anybody else have this issue? How can I resolve this?
    What happens is: every single conversation I had is still in the text log/hub however, when I select any previous message or try to compose a new one, it automatically chooses my last text, opens up the conversation which appears blank and when I type, the keyboard pops up however the text field remains under the keyboard (cannot see it) and the send button is not working. Any help is much appreciated!
    Solved!

    inconvenience, I will probably never get a blackberry again.  My phone was working fine until I did the update.  I was told to restore my phone to factory setting and I did that, but I lost everything on my phone, yes, I did backup my files, but it took over an hour to restore my phone and then I had to redownload everything I had saved, and I lost any progress I had on the games I had downloaded.  My main purpose for my phone is texting and all I get told, is Blackberry is working on a fix.  Well its been over a month and nothing yet.  I find this extremely annoying.  My bf has a iphone and I am just about willing to use his phone.  Its sad that I paid over $500 for  a phone that I can not use, and there is no compensation at all, just "wait until blackberry comes out with a new update". So frustrated.
    You're doing something wrong here it should be hard, I'm on the same OS update. 
    When you did update? did you restore once the update was complete?

  • After updating to iOS 7 I can no longer receive text messages.

    I can send text messages but I am not receiving responses even though the received confirmed they responded.  I am also not receiving text messages initiated by anyone else.  Problem did not exist prior to the update.  Contact list has not changed and all contact #s are 10 digit.  I can still view have all messages sent and received prior to the update.  Any suggestions, anyone else experiencing the same?

    I'm having the identical problem on my iPhone 4 after upgrading to IOS 7--no ability to update apps or download new apps.  Here is what Apple tech support emailed to me:
    I understand that you are unable to download or update applications after updating iOS7 on your iTunes. I know you must be eager to get this resolved and I will be happy to help you today.
    ... to help you better with this issue I would request you to please try this steps given below to resolve your issue.
    Please follow this steps:
    1) Double tap the home button
    2) Hold down on an icon
    3) Tap the red "X" on iTunes, and the App Store.
    4) Tap Settings > Store > Tap your Apple ID, and choose sign out
    5) Tap Settings
    6) Tap General
    7) Tap Reset
    8) Tap Network Settings
    Once it has been closed with multi-tasking, and you have rebooted the device in the network settings reset, please sign in, and try again. 
      Howevr, if you are facing the same issue than for this issue, you may need to call our AppleCare technical support team. A technical Advisor will be able to tell you about Apple's complimentary and fee-based support. The technical Advisor can also assist you in determining what option might be most helpful to you in this case.
    Mildly amusing that the instructions for force-closing a program are the IOS 6 instructions, which do not work on IOS 7. 
    Otherwise I'm having a little success with this.  Some apps (not all) are updating. It seems that a few more apps update each time I go through the process (close everything, sign out, and either reset or reboot, then go to the app store, sign in and try to update all).  So far it has been a very lengthy, iterative process. 

  • Why can't i send text messages to those who don't have apple products?

    I am unable to send text messages to those who don't have apple products.  Can someone help with how to do this?  I know imessages don't work to them, but I should still be able to text them.  Help?

    Hi there!
    If you want to send text messages on your iPad, you may be talking about the recent Continuity Feature. To do this you will also need an iPhone connected to the same wi-fi network.
    On your iPhone:
    Go to Settings
    Then to Messages
    Then 'Text Message Forwarding'
    Turn on the device you want to send a text message, in your case your iPad.
    Your phone should ask a code that it sent to your iPad. In the box type in the code that shows up on your iPad and press Allow.
    You should be good to go.

  • Why can't I send text messages to more then one recipients from the UK?

    I have an iPhone 6 with the latest operating system.  I travel to the UK frequently. When I attempt to send a text message to multiple recipients it comes back as undeliverable.  However I am able to send textx to single recipients.  This only happens in the UK That I know of.

    It's ask the person who has that phone - that's where the problem is.

  • Can no longer see text messages on iMessage

    Hi,
    As of this week, I can no longer see my text messages on my laptop  (OS 10.10.2). My iPhone (8.1.3) gets texts, and in the settings for Messages, the only forwarding device is my iPad. I can't add a device here for some reason. Any ideas?

    Hi,
    The Fact the iPad can do it suggests the Apple ID is active on the iPhone.
    It hints that the Messages app and the iMessages account on the Mac are not logged in (despite what the app might tell you).
    Can you set the iPhone to Send from it's own Number.
    Can you then send an iMessages to the Apple ID ?
    Does it arrive on the Mac ?
    If you deselect the iPhone Number on the Mac can you send from the Apple ID to the iPhone Number ?
    I would try using the Sign Out button on the Mac and then Quirt the app before adding back the password and re-enabling the Account on starting it up again.

  • Why Can't I Send Text Messages in Group Conversati...

    I recently installed Skype 6 on my Mac OSX 10.9.2 but when I go to Skype and look at my group conversations in my history and click on it, it does not show any of the messages that other people have sent (only the times when people have called). It will not let me click call or the plus button because they are faded. It also wont let me click the textbox to type because it says: This is a legacy conversation from an old Skype client. Sending messages is not supported.
    Can anyone please tell me how to fix this problem? 
    Thank you,

    I can't do group text any longer either. Everyone else in my group call can. Some are on PC's and some on MAC's. I am using MAC OS 10.9.4 and have the latest version of Skype. Since I use it for business, I really need to find a fix for this and it seems that Skype support doesn't care. At least that's how it looks in the post threads. 

  • Since updating to 7.0.3 on iphone 4s i can no longer send pic messages and my imessage works only sometimes....please help!!

    I have tried everything, restoring the phone, turning the phone off then on, turning imessage and facetime both on then off and nothing is working!!! I could always send pics before and never had a problem with imessage, what can I do to fix this?

    The ipad cannot send SMS or MMS messages because it is not a cellular phone.
    You can send such messages from your iPad through your iPhone if you have FaceTime activated and Settings > Messages > Text Message Forwarding turned on for your iPad.

  • Why can't I send text messages from my Samsung s4?

    I have been unable to send a message all day. Can anyone help please.

    Because to send messages to non Apple devices you need to use SMS messaging which the iPad cannot do.
    SMS messaging is a carrier service based on the cellular carriers voice and text messaging channels.
    iPads, even cellualr ones do not have access to those channels and as such cannot message non Apple devices.
