Can receive sms texts but not read them

Hi!
my blackberry curve is currently receiving sms text messages, but they only show up as an icon at the top of the main menu, i can't actually see them or even open them. i do not have this problem with mms or email. i also can't see texts when i go to the specific 'sms' inbox. i know i'm receiving them because friends have asked why i haven't responded. but it's like they're lost to some black hole in my phone. 
things i've tried:
i've tried rebooting the phone, at which point i've gotten the "uncaught exception: java.lang.ClassCastException" error. 
also, my phone is saying "attempting to open a secure server connection but the server's certificate is not trusted." sometimes i can just click close connection and get through to the phone but other times i can't. 
i've tried rebooting the phone (taking the battery out), changing my themes settings to default (and using a default blackberry theme) and deleting all messages from my phone. 
nothing seems to be working -- what can I do to read text messages again??

Hey mmgiiirl,
Welcome to the BlackBerry® Support Community Forums.
This may be an issue with your SMS database. Try clearing your SMS database then test with new messages:

  • Added money to account.  Can receive texts but not send them.

    I added money to my daughters prepay account and she can send texts but not receive them.  I have tried sending fresh texts and tried replying back and all I get are "message not  sent" notifications.  We are both on VZW.  She got the verifcation text that the  money went in and that the $20 texting plan was activated.  Please help.

        Hi, Spiniequeen!
    I am sorry to learn the device is not receiving texts! That's a bummer! Was your daughter's phone getting messages before adding money to it? If it had been awhile since funds were added, the features may need to be updated. I suggest contacting our prepaid team at 888-294-6804 for immediate assistance. Keep me posted!
    Thanks,

  • HT4059 why can you browse, and buys books from itunes but not read them on my iMac?  Pretty lame I think. my kindle show up across all my computers, iPhones and Android devices no problem.

    just wondering why you can browse, buy on itunes but not read on an imac. My kindle apps work on the imac, ipod, asus netbook, iphone and android devices.  Why not ibooks on imac?

    "just wondering why you can browse, buy on itunes but not read on an imac. "
    Because Apple does not make an ibook reader for computers.

  • Why can I select text but not an image in my layout?

    Illustrator 5.5 question (working on a mac lion system) - Trying to create a file for my screen printer with 2 colors separated to create his screens.
    Problem - I am new to Illustrator. I created a 2 color layout with text and image in Photoshop and I saved it as an eps file. I opened it in Illustrator and I created 2 layers for each color. I can select the text but I cannot select the image to separate the colors? I used the select and direct select tool, but I still cannot select the image?
    What am I doing wrong?

    Hi Jet,
    The artwork is 100% RGB. The art, text and image, are presently red with blue outline. Should I rasterize the image and convert it to 1-bit gray scale?
    Where do I determine the number of bits in gray scale?
    Concerning layers, I was following the tutorial Preparing Artwork for Screen Printing in Adobe Illustrator at this link.

  • TS3718 Facetime:  I can hear the caller but not see them.  They can hear and see me.  What could be the problem.  I am using an I-Pad 2 updated with OS7.

    When receiving a Facetime call, I can hear the caller but can not see them.  They can hear and see me. 

    Unfortunately, the drive is pretty much restricted without hacking it. That is, you can't stream its content via standardized protocols like UPnP, SMB, FTP and the like. This makes you won't be able to access its content from any third-party apps otherwise capable of playing back AVI files from UPnP / SMB / FTP / WebDAV etc. sources.
    While this is certainly not a recommendation (I can in no way be held responsible if anything goes wrong): you may want to consider extending the capabilities of the drive by installing the hack: http://www.hackseagatesatellite.com/wordpress/welcome/
    It'll "open" the drive for third-party, AVI-capable multimedia apps like GoodPlayer, It's Playing etc. to directly play the files over the network.

  • Can receive Viber messages, but not send?

    Hi all,
    Last week my friend in the UK lost her phone, got a new one and re-installed Viber.
    Since then I can receive her Viber texts, but when I try to reply I get a pop-up saying that 'this contact no longer has Viber installed...'!  This obviously seems nonsensical. 
    She can also call me on Viber, and appears in my Viber contact list.  However if I attempt to send her a Viber message and get the pop-up above, her name suddenly disappears from the contact list!
    I have today updated my Viber to the latest version, in case my Viber was somehow out-of-date with hers, but the problem persists.
    Any thoughts?
    Thanks,

    I started having the same problem today. I have been using Viber for some time now without any problmem both on wifi and 3G and starting today I'm not able to use it. I have an iPhone 4s and have the latest version of Viber installed on it.
    The messages get stuck at "Sending" and after a while turns put to red color with an error "Not sent".
    I tried uninstalling and re-installing viber but of no use. After the re-install it is not syncing my contact list nor working. Could some one help?

  • On iPod Touch, how can I view calendars but not sync them?

    I have thirteen years of calendar events in iCal on my desktop Mac, dating back to year 2000, divided between three calendars. A quite large amount of calendar data, admittedly. I sync to my iPod Touch via iCloud.  Problem is that, if I select "Sync All Events" in the Settings of the iPod, my iPod apparently constantly is trying to sync thirteen years, resulting in unbearably slow performance, with intolerably long lag before calendars "sync" and before new entries resolve. 
    Of course, if I select the alternative iPod Calendar Setting "Sync Events Six Months Back", my iPod performs swiftly, efficiently... after all, it's not like I'm editing old events from years ago. However, by doing so, events older than 6 months cannot be viewed on the iPod Touch.
    I suppose most people aren't concerned with preserving older calendar events in a viewable form, but I have need to do so on my iPod Touch. I don't need to spend unbelievable amount of waiting time while my iPod processes (i.e., "syncs") all my old calendar events ; I simply wish to be able to see the darn things! So, how do I maintain fast performance AND ability to view all my calendar events quickly?
    I hope this makes sense. If anyone has an idea how I can achieve this, I will be greatly appreciative. Obviously, on my desktop Mac I have no problem viewing any date in iCal that I choose to view. On my iPod, though, can I set up separate calendar in which I can store but not sync the older calendar stuff? Or, do I need some separate app to preserve and view my older calendars?
    Thanks.

    Try the following:
    - A reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory settings/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order

  • Weird! Not receiving SMS (Texts) but have reception and 3G

    Hi all,
    Haven't had a problem with my iphone 4 until i believe I upgraded to the 4.1 and changed the case.
    Basically when I am at home and only appears to be at home and round the area I live I do not receive texts. The phone is showing 2 and 3 bars of reception, I can make calls, send text, send emails but for some reason not receiving texts. However when i make a phone call or receive one all of a sudden I get an influx of text messages come through.
    I have reset the NETWORK SETTINGS
    I have reset the ALL SETTINGS
    I have restored the iphone through itunes
    Can any one help to solve this problem?
    Cheers

    In my opinion, this is probably just a reception issue at your home. If SMS works everywhere else but your home, I think the handset is fine. Do you live in a concrete bunker or steel building?
    SMS uses the carrier or signalling channel and not necessarily the voice or data streams. It's the signalling channel that tells the phone that you have an incoming call or are making a phone call. So, theoretically, if you can make or receive a call, you should also be able to make/receive SMSs.
    Please let us know what happens.

  • I can receive a text but I can't send

    I've been working with Verizon Tier 2 to help with this issue and they have escalated the problem to their technician.
    Since we got our new phones and have signed up with the data plan and text messaging, I have not been able to send text messages. I do receive them. My husband who is on the plan can send/receive text messages.
    I have a Droid X phone.

    Thank you in advance for your response.

    Hello sallymay610!
    I am so sorry to hear that you're having difficulty with your new phone! There may be several things going on. Are you able to make & receive calls? What happens when you try to send a text? Please follow the troubleshooting steps here for internet connection: http://vz.to/12TLCsR 
    If you are unable to get it resolved, you may want to consider using your option to exchange the device if you are still within your return period.

  • All of a Sudden I can't send emails! I can receive on imail, but not send. any ideas?

    Hi everyone
    I am having issues with my emails that I have set up on my Mac Book Pro.
    I am able to receive them fine, but the SMPT server now won't send any.
    This has happened in the past and I have just deleted the email account, and re-started it... which works fine, until 1 day then it suddenly stops sending again.
    I'm fed up doing this however and want it sorted for good.
    Does anyone have any ideas? Greatly appreciated!
    Stuart

    There are only two things that I can suggest.
    The first is to try the Mail Setup Assistant.
    The other is giving Mozilla's Thunderbird a shot - setup the account and see if it will work with this free email app. I don't like Mail at all - and it gives some people fits around here (I don't know how many times people have posted about problems with outgoing servers using Mail).
    Try both methods - I don't use Mail - I use MS's Outlook (and, before that, Entourage). If the Setup Assistant offers no relief, just try Thunderbird and see if it works with it.
    Good luck,
    Clinton

    Try this first - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.)
    Or this - Delete the account in Mail and then set it up again. Settings->Mail, Contacts, Calendars -> Accounts   Tap on the Account, then on the red button that says Remove Account.
