Can only send 1 Text/MMS at a time

Prior to this update, I could send a "mass" text message ( WITHOUT PICTURES ) now I can only send out one at a time. This is a very annoying problem when you have to to send he same text message to 4-5 people. I can't now, I get "send failure". Of course as is standard AT&T procedure, they assume no responsibility and keep telling me there roll out went flawlessly and that i's obviously an iPhone issue.
SO, has anyone else had this issue arise and if so, have you figured out a solution.
THanks, I appreciate it, and I still hate AT&T....So please don't pounce on me for all you AT&T fanboys. My iPhone experience has ALL been network related and I can say I really hate AT&T

Hi,No ATT fanboy here, but I am able to send text message to two people and a picture text to two people.

I think your problem is the fact that your friend is not registered through iMessage, just text messages. I would look around and check out how to set up iMessage on iPhones.

Can I send a text to a "group" contact without selecting each individual member?

Can I send a text to a "group" contact without selecting each individual member? I have a group formed in my contacts, but I still have to select each member in that group to send a text or email from my phone.

There are apps that allow you to address sms messages to groups (such as Speed Names: https://itunes.apple.com/us/app/speed-names-contacts-groups/id285124918?mt=8), but not iMessages. Perhaps this will change with a future iOS update.
The only point of having them at the moment is to allow you to limit the view to only contacts belonging to a group, so that you can more easily add the individual members of the group. But at the present time, you still have to add them individually.

I have iphone 5 and can not send a text to one person who has iphone 4s and on same family plan

I have an iphone 5... and also a family plan. I can not send a text to my daughter on the same plan. She has an iphone 4s. I have tried mulitiple things to get this to work.... It started about 10 days ago... I have delete text stream for her and any group messages. Also her contact in contacts. Also readded her contact with area code....then with 1 ...then just with 1... All rebooting in between each new thing i did... Checked to see if sms is turned on ..yes and turned it off... turned of imessages and back on... rebooting in between. Also signed out of and back into apple id. Also with reboots... did a soft reset. Upgraded to ios 8 about 2 days ago... And a few times in last 10 days i could send for a few hours then it was gone again...... VERY frustrated at this point....Also i can text many others including iphones and so can she....

Thank you for reaching out to us, labrylao4. Regarding the issues with messaging, is this affecting only SMS, iMessages, or both? When you or her try to send each other messages, do you receive any error messages while it is sending? If it is for iMessages, have you tried to send while connected to WiFi?

Can't send photo text from iphone 4s to non iPhone

I have a 4s iPhone but can't send photo text message to husband who doesn't have iPhone. Can send to people with iphone though. Need some help...

I've been having problems with texting pictures since I updated to iOS 7 too but have yet to find a solution that actually works. I have also tried to reset my phone numerours times, have MMS turned on, etc. It doesn't matter if I'm trying to send the picture to another Apple user or not.
It usually takes about 3 or 4 tries to get the picture to go through, but in many cases I have to turn my phone off then back on for it to work.
PS - I am in Canada & my service provider is Bell. However I don't believe it is a Bell issue as I didn't have any problems until AFTER the update. Had hoped the latest update this week would've fixed it but if anything it seems worse.

Can I send a text from my ipad to a droid?

Can I send a text from my ipad to a droid?

IF YOU ONLY HAVE WIFI: you can download a texting app (which gives you your own #) and then YES, you can text anyone's cell phone or device as long as they have a phone # as well.
IF YOU HAVE 3G (INTERNET EVERYWHERE) OR A TEXTING PLAN: YES you can, if you have 3G, then follow the instructions for wifi
if you have 3g, then you should be able to enter the messaging application on your iPad and send a message to anyone with a valid phone #!
I hope I was able to help you converse with whoever you are trying to converse with...

You will need to download a texting App from the App Store. I have seen Text + recommended on the forum.

Iphone is only sending SMS texts

My iphone 4S is only sending SMS text messages - even to other iphones. How do I change it?

There has been an outage for both iMessage and FaceTime today. Started at around Noon time, PDT.
There is nothing you can do from your end, this problem is on Apple's servers.

There is a huge difference between sending email and sending messages.
Yes, I believe you when you say you can only send messages to other Apple products. The iPad is not a telephone, and therefore, it cannot text message. It can only iMessage, which means it can send and receive messages to/from other Apple products if they are on WiFi or an iMessage capable cellular network.
Email, however, is a whole different category. I don't really think you can only exchange email with other Apple products only. Make sure you have correctly identified the symptoms.

I used to be able to send and receive iMessages, now I can only send not receive. It's an iPad mini

I Used to be able to send and receive iMessages from my iPad mini, now I can only send iMessages and not receive them. It's the same withFaceTime, can FaceTime from the device but can't receive them.

Can i send a text from my ipad

Can i send a text from my i pad to any phone? How do you do it!
Thankyou!

There may be some apps that will allow sending a text to other non Apple phones. Search the App Store.
The Messages app that comes on an iPad can send iMessages to other iOS devices only.

Contact can only send iMessage to my email, not my phone number

Since Apple released iMessage my friend and I have been iMessaging. As of yesterday, I can still send my friend iMessages as usual, but she can only send iMessages to my email (I have "Receive at" set to my phone number and email, Caller ID set to my phone number). If she tries to send an iMessage to my phone number, as she did before, it will only send as a Text. All of my other iPhone contacts can still send iMessages to my phone number. We've each tried rebooting and switching iMessage on and off (we both have iPhone 4, IOS 5.1.1) without any luck. I realise that iMessage is still technically working with her sending to my email, but we just don't understand why sending to my phone number has suddenly stopped working. Grateful for any suggestions.

It sounds like something has changed on her end...
Is she sure she has iMessage turned On? Because that scenario usually occurs when you get an email text from a regular cell phone, i.e. iMessage may be Off on their end.

I can only send messages to other iPhones and I am not allowed to make or receive calls

I can only send messages to other iPhones and I am not allowed to make or receive calls at all not even iphones.

You must have a SIM card installed ( if applicable ) and have your iPhone activated to make calls or text mobile phones.
