Can receive texts from some phones but they never get my return text.

Brand new replacement iphone 4S for duplicate issue - can text other iphones and receive texts but NON-iphones cannot receive any texts from my iphone (I can receive their texts, though).  Has anyone else had this problem? 

You can't send texts to other phones with iMessage, it only sends and/or receives from other iOS devices. If you want to send text to others phones (other than an iPhone to iTouch), get the third-party app textPlus Free Text + Calls so you can send and received texts from other people.
Hope this helps.

    I got a new iphone 4s today, I can  receive emails on my phone, but I can't send them??

    Check your Outgooing Mail Server SMTP settings for your account.  Make sure Primary Server is set to On, then check the Outgoing Mail Server settings to be sure they are correct.

  • Is there a way to hide apps from the app store? I don't want my kids to see those "free" apps that nag you to spend real money and download their other apps! I can hide them from "purchased apps", but they still show up when browsing for new apps!

    Not other than parental oversight. On the computer you can implement Parental Controls on a separate user account that they would use. You can then block certain websites. But you cannot do that on the iPad.
    You could change your iTunes account such that they cannot access it in order to buy or download apps.

  • ISync receives changes from mobile phone but stopped sending changes

    Trying to sync this morning with my Nokia 6682. Everything has been working perfectly until today. iCal receives changes from the phone and makes them on the calendar but the changes in iCal are not being sent to the phone. All the iSync log says is that the sync failed. The phone connects to iSync and starts to apply changes to the phone and then just zips to the end and gives me the error.

    Hello, I've read that you have write about "iSync agent" what is it?
    I would like to say that the address book start to run (but I don't know why) but the calendar still not...
    Very strange...

  • HT201317 If i deleted pictures from my phone but they were backed up to icloud, can i get them back?

    If I deleted pix from my iphone 4s, sent them to icloud, recovered them when I got new iphone 5s, deleted them off of 5s onto internet site, but have now lost them off of the internet site, are my pix still in the icloud?

    Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days.  If they were in the camera roll on your 4s when you last backed it up, restoring the backup would recover them.

  • I try to add files from my computer, but they never show up.

    I've tried the copying thing too. usually, all I have to do is click file>add file to library>(chose a file) and everything's fine. but lately, I would go through the process and there'd be absolutely no change in my library, not even a notice.

    You're welcome.
    Do you know where you make the various selections to be synced or transferred to your iPhone with iTunes on your computer? If so, same place.

  • I just stored all my pictures in iCloud. Can't I erase them from my phone since they are now in the cloud?

    I just put ALL of my pictures in iCloud. Is there a way I can erase them from my phone since they are now in the cloud?

    Mitzi0111886,
    While you can't delete the photos from your iPhone without deleting them from iCloud, you can enable Optimize iPhone Storage in Settings -> iCloud -> Photos.
    You can turn on Optimize [device] Storage from Settings > iCloud > Photos or Settings > Photos & Camera > iCloud Photo Library on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch. You need an Internet connection to access an original photo or video that’s stored only in iCloud.

  • Can retrieve users from some sub OUs and from other sub OUs cann't

    hi,
    I am using Windows 2003 Active Directory Server and Jndi to access that in my application. I am using follwing code to retrieve all Users from a aprticular OU.
    ctx = new InitialDirContext(environment);
    SearchControls ctls = new SearchControls();
    ctls.setSearchScope(2);
    String attrs[] = {
    "sn", "givenName", "userPrincipalName"
    ctls.setReturningAttributes(attrs);
    String filter = "(&(objectClass=*))";
    String serachCriteria[] = {"User Container", "Admin Leads,OU=Administration,OU=User Container"};
    for(int i = 0; i < serachCriteria.length; i++)
    StringBuffer searchString = new StringBuffer("OU=");
    searchString.append(serachCriteria);
    searchString.append(",DC=india,DC=mycompany,DC=com");
    for(NamingEnumeration answer = ctx.search(searchString.toString(), filter, ctls); answer.hasMoreElements();)
    SearchResult searchResult = (SearchResult)answer.next();
    ....................and so on
    as can be observed in the bold text above, I have to specify the path of sub OU to retrieve users under that. Whereas apart from this sub OU, it is retrieving users from others sub OUs. The problem is, the code can access users from some OUs but not from other sub OUs
    Can anybody help?
    regards,
    Zaid

    Active Directory has a very rich access control model.
    Perhaps it may not have occurred to you, that you do not have list access rights to the child3 & child9 organizational units ?
    You may have access rights to all the leaf objects contained in child3 & child9, which explains why you can retrieve all the leaf objects when you explicitly bind to them, however you may not have list access rights to child3 & child9 which explains why you can't bind to it when iterating through parent1.
    What happens if you simply perform a one level search on parent1, using a filter (objectClass=organizationalUnit) ?
    If it doesn't retrieve child3 & child9, then perhaps you do not have list access rights for those two ou's.

  • TS3276 I can receive emails, but I cannot send emails. This just started happening. I have an iPhone and I can send emails from my phone fine. It's just not working on my Macbook. Every time I try to send an email it goes straight to my outbox. Can anyone

    I can receive emails, but I cannot send emails. This just started happening. I have an iPhone and I can send emails from my phone fine. It's just not working on my Macbook. Every time I try to send an email it goes straight to my outbox. Can anyone help?

    Thank you for heading me in the right direction.  I reset my Mail account for Outgoing Mail Server to outbound.att.net:(customer ID)@att.net (instead of smtp.att.yahoo.com, per Apple's online troubleshooting information).   I'm not sure what "(Offline)" means when it appears at the end of my Outgoing Mail Server (SMTP)??  In the Advanced box I clicked on "Use custom port:  465" and checked "Use Secure Sockets Layer."  Authentication:  Password; I have correct User Name and Password put in.  After doing all this, when I try to send emails again today, they go directly to the Outbox and sit there. 
    What's curious is that my first sent email this morning did go out using the Outgoing Mail Server, smtp.att.yahoo.com: (customer ID)@att.net(Offline) but subsequent emails I tried to send with this server were rejected with the message:  "Cannot send message using the server smtp.att.yahoo.com (etc.).  The SMTP server doesn't support TLS(SSL) on port 587.  Verify your account settings and try again."  That's when I tried resetting my Outgoing Mail Server to outbound.att.net (etc.), as mentioned above, and was unsuccessful in sending out any further emails.  I guess my next step is to contact my email service provider, AT&T, and see if they can help me.  Thanks, again, for taking the time to respond and for giving me your input!  Much appreciated!

    It sounds like it still has her information on it, so it might be efficient to navigate to Settings, then General, then Reset, then Erase All Content and Settings. You can then set up the phone again, using your information. This way the phone will be yours, officially, and her data and information will be removed.

  • HT1277 I can send & receive email from my ipad but for some reason I can no longer do this from my i mac.It keeps telling me that the password is not valid with the imap server.I keep entering the password but it won't accept it.

    Do you have one, two or more entries in the left colum of Mail.app for your mail server(s)?  That is, do you have your Mail.app set up with either a btinternet entry, with a btyahoo entry, or both?  Or more?
    I'm guessing that you might have one account (btyahoo?) listed for incoming (IMAP server) mail, and with the outbound (SMTP server) mail is configured and named btinternet.
    Based on what little I see posted, it looks like BT uses both btinternet and btyahoo, but I'm not exactly clear on how they have their stuff set up, and their web set gets helpful and tries to help configure my mail — I don't immediately see a single web page with the mail server set-up details.  The BT email client set-up starts here.

  • HT1689 I am trying to sync some new purchases on to my i phone but they are coming up as restricted in downloads and are unplayable can anyone help?

    I am trying to sync some new purchases on to my i phone but they are coming up as restricted in downloads and are unplayable can anyone help?

    Overdrive media are not iTunes purchases so they do not transfer with:
    iTunes Store: Transferring purchases from your iOS device or iPod to a computer
    Overdive media are copy protected so you can only read them via Overdrive. I do not understand what you mean by free books and are now paid. Overdrive are typically books for a public library.
    You can try looking on your iPod via a third-party program like PhoneView, Touch copy or the free program iFunBox

    I am having the same problem. I have just tried this. Unplug iphone > open itunes > delete all music from itunes library > close itunes > re-open itunes > add music from original folder > plug in iphone > select songs > press sync > unplug iphone using eject button onscreen > checked phone .... still nothing in music folder on phone. On itunes the "On this iphone" tab the songs remain there but greyed out.
