Can't send iMessage from iPad

Can't iMessage from iPad. Phone number incorrect and can't find a way to change this

Hey Blue Gecko,
Thanks for the question. If your phone number has recently changed and you need to update it in the iMessage system, you can follow the steps in this resource:

Can you send iMessages from one iPad to another? If so how can I do this? Thanks

I have just got a new iPad and I'm wondering if you can send iMessages from one iPad to another? We are currently trying this out and can only send iMessages from an iPad to an iPhone is this correct? Thanks

You can use the Messages app to send messages to any iOS device or to a Mac running Mountain Lion. So yes you can send a message to another iPad.
Both iPads have to have Messages set up and you need to contact the other iPad using an email addresses as the "you can be reached at" email address.
Do you have it set up correctly on both iPads?

Can't send sms from ipad mini

can't send sms from ipad mini

Correct; your iPad mini is not a cellular telephone.
You can send and receive iMessages to/from other Apple devices, but you cannot send or receive text messages.
From the Manual:
Using the Messages app and the built-in iMessage service, you can send unlimited text messages over Wi-Fi or cellular data connections to other iOS and OS X Mountain Lion users. Messages
can include photos, videos, and other info. You can see when other people are typing, and notify them when you’ve read their messages. iMessages are displayed on all of your iOS devices logged in to the same account, so you can start a conversation on one of your devices, and continue it on another device. iMessages are encrypted for security.

How can I send imessages from my phone number instead of my email?

My phone reset and now my imessages only send from my email address instead of from my phone number. I tried settings> messages> send and receive and unchecked the email listed like i saw to try on previous questions, but instead of fixing my problem, it just made it so that now i cant send imessages whatsoever! How can i fix this? I just want to send imessages from my number instead of my email address!

Hi gracem0324,
Go to Settings>Messages>Send & Receive, and click on your Apple ID and sign out of Messages. Then sign on again. Sometimes it needs to reset itself....
Cheers,

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.

Sending messages . I can't send messages from iPad air. Can anyone help

I cannot send messages from my iPad . Can anyone help

1. Messages on the iPad can only be sent to other iDevices
2. The receiving party must also be registered with iMessage
Note: The two above conditions must be met.

Why can't send iMessages from my Mac to my iPhone anymore and opposide?

Since today I can't send any iMessage from my Mac to my iphone and opposite. If I try to send it from my phone to my e-mail(which I have to recieve on my PC, or I used to, it says "Not delivered" or If I try to send a iMessage from my Mac to my iphone, I automaticly recieve that iMessage, but instead on my phone its on my PC again, just on different box. I think there is something to do with my accounts, but I have tried anything possible and I can't figure this out!

HI,
Just to be clear.
There are three folders called "Library" on a Mac with only the original Admin account. *see fourth Library below.
If you open the Hard Drive to it's top level then you can read Library, System and Users (As well as Applications and anything you have put here.
If you open the System one then there is a Library folder as the next step there.
Also in Users > the name of your Account (Little House icon) then there is one in here.
However since Lion this has been Invisible.
Using the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder and entering ~/Library will open a window in that Library
You can also make the Folder Visible on permanent basis if you need to.
Generally Spotlight will not display the results from the ~/Library which is why you will not find it this way.
Fourth Library.
Since Sandboxing came into being the Containers folder has many "Library" folders that apply to each app that can be sandboxed.
Basically all are at the same depth of Containers/Data/App Name/Library.
As you say it is working I would not worry too much about it.
I have just finished installing OS X 10.9.3 and my Users folder seems to be the next one to become Invisible.
