Cannot compose iMessage. But can receive and reply too. Help!?

I do not get the '@' symbol on the keyboard while composing iMessage due to which I cannot type in apple id's. Also, iMessage isn't detected automatically. However, I can receive and reply to iMessages but not start the conversation. Also, I do not have MMS Messaging option under Messages in Settings. Please help!?

  • I can receive imessages but can't even reply to the one I just received ...it says the sender is not registered on imessage, which is impossible because they just used it sending to me!

    I receive a message on imessage but when I try to reply I get a message saying "that person is not registered on imessage'' BUT that is incorrect because they just used imessage when they messaged me?! I checked all my settings etc. but I can't send to anyone. Does this imessage EVER WORK?

    I did in fact say " I can not send to anyone''. All the people who ever sent me an iMessage ...when I try to reply to them or when I start a new message to them, their name shows up in red with an exclamation mark beside their name...when I click on that it says they are" not registered with iMessage''
    Why are so many people having so many problems with this iMessage???

  • Cannot send iMessage, but I receive them.

    My friend switched from Android to iPhone 5s.  When he texts me, I receive it as an iMessage on my 5c, but when I respond, it is sent as an SMS.  How can I make my messages go through as iMessages?
    I have already turned iMessage off and back on.
    I am using iOS 7.0.4
    I can send iMessages to my other contacts who have iPhones.  It is just this one contact.

    Hi Snerts,
    Thanks for the question. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you are not sending imessages to one contact. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps
    Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you selected iMessage for use. If the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use, troubleshoot iMessage registration.
    Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. If a data connection isn't available, troubleshoot cellular data or a Wi-Fi connection.
    iMessage over cellular data might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn which network your phone supports. If your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while you're on a call.
    Restart your device.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    If you still can't send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
    Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    Make sure that the contact you're trying to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    Back up and restore your device as new.
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Mario

  • This morning, for some reason, my yahoo inbox stopped updating and is frozen. I can send a new email but can receive any emails. Help!

    THis morning my yahoo mail stopped updating at 8:32. I turned my iPad off and on nothing. I deleted my email and then load d it again nothing. Looking for other suggestions. But my email works just fine on my iPhone.

    Thank you for the reply! However, I have already tried deleting my Yahoo account and then adding it back. All that served to do was delete everything!
    I can send an email but I cannot receive any emails in my Apple/iPad mailbox using Yahoo. However, my iPhone is working just fine! I finally downloaded the Yahoo App for mail so I can at least receive my emails on my iPad. All very frustrating!

  • Cannot Make Calls, but Can Receive, Buttons Do Not Work

    Hi Everyone,
    Ok, I cannot get my Iphone 3g to make calls out right now. The whole bottom row of applications cannot be pushed.
    I have tried resetting the phone, I have taken out the SIM card and replaced it.
    I have no problem answering calls and if the people are in my contact list, i can call them, but I cannot dial numbers 789 or hit the call button. I also cannot access my voicemail, I can hear the first message, but I cannot delete or save the message to move on to the next one.
    I am a realtor and this phone is essential to me. Any ideas?

    Well your best bet is to make sure you are running the current version of the operating system. If you are then I would suggest that you do a reboot of the devise. Hold down the power button and the home button for 10 seconds the turn your iPhone back on. If that doesn't work try a restore in iTunes. Last but not least you might just need to call appple tech. support and send your phone in.

  • Suddenly cannot send email but can receive email

    I am running OSX 10.8.2 on a MacPro desktop. I have been using Mail sucessfuly since I originally installed Mountain Lion but now it suddenly has stopped working. I have confirmed and reconfirmed my SMPT settings but have failed to send any mail. I sucessfully sent an email one week ago and have not completed any updates since. Suddenly "Mail" has taken a vacation and refused to send any mail. This has failed using POP, SMPT, EXCHANGE and IMAP.
    I am now getting an error message indicating:
    "The sender address [email protected] was rejected by the server smtp.gmail.com.
    Select a different outgoing mail server from the list below or click Try Later to leave the message in your Outbox until it can be sent."
    I have confirmed my settings are correct with my service providers. I get this message from all of the email accounts that I use. I know the mail settings are right because I can send mail from these accounts using my iPhone,iPad, and Widows laptop without issues.
    Attempting to change ports as suggested in previous posts has worked on one "send" test email but has refused to operate since.  I noticed that "Mail" will sometimes unilaterally change the outgoing server addresses on it own.
    The same issues come up when I tried to configure MS Oultlook:MAC 2011 tehrefore I suspect a problem originating with Mountain Lion and not the email clients.
    I checked for APPLE updates to my system and everything comes back as completely current with no updates available. Any ideas?

    Hello,
    All dot.Mac and Dot.Me account have migrated to iCloud.
    You should have been given details of expiry for the .Mac account to iCloud. Apple have now shut .Me and .Mac account for web access.
    Check this discussion which may help. https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3966411?start=0&tstart=0

  • Can't compose, reply or send mail - but can receive

    My software is up to date and I can receive mail, but I select reply and it usually would bring up a new mail window and won't or I try to compose a new email and my mail won't let me even type past the third letter or send/forward/reply to anything.
    Worked yesterday fine - the only thing I did was delete some fonts, but replaced them and restarted and mail still won't work - but I can receive and all of my other programs are uneffected.

    This problem in Mail is usually caused by some Launch Services cache or preferences corruption that affects the built-in spell checker. The following article describes how to manually reset Launch Services — the notes at the bottom of the article also provide information about the side effects of deleting each of the files involved:
    Resetting Launch Services
    If you prefer using a cache cleaning utility instead of following the manual procedure described in the previous article, take a look at this other article for general troubleshooting and cache-cleaning procedures. Actually, you should also verify/repair the startup disk (not just permissions), as described there:
    Resolving Disk, Permission, and Cache Corruption
    The most appropriate utility for this particular problem probably is Tiger Cache Cleaner, but you may also want to consider other utilities, such as OnyX, or Cache Out X, which are free. Whatever utility you choose, be sure to read this first:
    Side effects of System cache cleaning
    As an example, this is how you should proceed with OnyX:
    1. Quit all applications.
    2. Launch OnyX and enter your administrator password.
    3. Go to Maintenance > Reset and check LaunchServices database.
    4. Un-check any other pre-checked options.
    5. Click the Execute button.
    6. Restart the computer.

  • Mine is Yahoo where POP is used .TB is IMAP . i can receive and send mails , but when making action on TB (Del or send) no reflection on main server

    Hello there,
    My e-mail is Yahoo, and Yahoo by default is POP user .

    You cannot convert an existing account, but you can set up your Yahoo account as IMAP in parallel to the existing POP account. See

  • TS3899 recently changed ISP, now cannot send emails on iPad but can receive them, help

    recently changed ISP, now cannot send emails on iPad but can receive them

    Make sure that your username and password are set in the outgoing mail servers setting.
    Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars>Your email account>Account>Outgoing mail server - tap the server name next to SMTP and check in the primary server and make sure your username and password are entered and correct - even if it says that the password is optional.

    Cannot send an email but can receive one.  Solution?

    Hi,
    I'm having the same problem as Ed. "smtp.me.com" send error.
    When I got the iPhone I followed mobileme sync between my computer and the iPhone from iTunes.
    My mobileme sends and receives mail from my Mail app on my computer.
    I tried to change the SSL server port # on the iPhone but it is grey and not able to be changed. I think port #25 works too. But, mail on my computer uses 587 which the iPhone is set to, but it's not working.
    I can send and receive mail from my yahoo and another POP3 account.
    Any ideas of how I can get my mobileme mail to send on my iphone? Thanks.

  • Imessage won't send texts/pictures, but can receive if send them to myself

    I can't find the answer to this:
    I have imessage on my iphone4s, but i can't send pictures to other imessage users. If I send them as SMS/MMS to another user, through the carrier, it works fine. I have tried sending the pictures to myself through imessage and I can receive them well.
    What I have tired:
    Having my brothers iphone next to me and making sure imessage works (blue text), he won't receive some of my texts and pictures.
    Turned off imessage and sent text (SMS) to my brother's iphone, he will recieve the message.
    Disabled Imessage and restarted my phone, reinabled imessage, tried again NO LUCK
    I sent text to myself on imessage, can receive and send, sent picture to myself on imessage, can send and recieve.
    sent picture to myself from my brothers iphone using imessage, can receive.
    My thoughts, seems like something got corrupted? Might have to restore my phone but wanted to see if anyone has had any better solutions.

    I have the exact same issue! I have tried compeltely restoring my iphone, turning off and on imessage different itunes accounts etc etc NOTHING will work. I am on the latest 5.1 and no luck whatsoever! Any help would be aprreciated thanks.

    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.
