  • 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.

  • 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.

  • 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.

  • I have a brand new iphone 5.  I can imessage and receive texts but can't send a text or reply to one.  Any ideas?

    I have a brand new iphone 5.. I can imessage and receive texts but can't reply or send new ones.  Any ideas?

    You can check this support document regarding troubleshooting Messages http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
    However, SMS is a carrier function. You say that iMessage is working, so I would contact the carrier since it is SMS is not working.

  • Is there an email address to use to send a text message to a Verizon user?

    I would like to use my computer to send an email - but it show up as a text on a Verizon Iphone.  Is this possible?

    Address the e-mail to the person's phone number, followed by vtext.com unless the e-mail/text contains pictures or special characters that would convert it to a multimedia message.  If that's the case, then send it to the phone number followed by vzwpix.com.
    In other words:

  • TS2755 When I downloaded the iOS 7 to my iphone I can only send messages to other I phones?

    When I downloaded the ios7 to my iphone4 I now can only send messages to other iPhones, but can call and receive calls from everyone?

    In settings for Messages, do you have "send as SMS enabled"?

  • 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.

  • I can't send/receive any message/call but I can connect to the internet. What's wrong?

    I can't send/receive any message/call but I can connect to the internet. What's wrong?

    Please read this whole message before doing anything.
    This procedure is a diagnostic test. It’s unlikely to solve your problem. Don’t be disappointed when you find that nothing has changed after you complete it.
    The purpose of the test is to determine whether the problem is caused by third-party software that loads automatically at startup or login, by a peripheral device, by a font conflict, or by corruption of the file system or of certain system caches.
    Disconnect all wired peripherals except those needed for the test, and remove all aftermarket expansion cards, if applicable. Start up in safe mode and log in to the account with the problem. You must hold down the shift key twice: once when you turn on the computer, and again when you log in.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t do this. Ask for further instructions.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up and run than normal, with limited graphics performance, and some things won’t work at all, including sound output and Wi-Fi on certain models. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    The login screen appears even if you usually login automatically. You must know your login password in order to log in. If you’ve forgotten the password, you will need to reset it before you begin.
    Test while in safe mode. Same problem?
    After testing, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and verify that you still have the problem. Post the results of the test.

  • Problem: Cannot send mail unless Password is transmitted insecurely & Port is set to 587.. Can receive mail but can't send..

    Problem: Cannot send mail unless Password is transmitted insecurely & Port is set to 587.. Can receive mail but can't send Code 501..
    Need help with T-bird.. My OS is Win XP-64..Have been using Mozilla for about 10 years with little or no problems.. This happened when I upgraded to 3.17.. Spent hours on T-Bird diagnostics web site.. Called Comcast & talked to a net tech.. he ran some tests on his end & had me log into my Comcast e-mail account & all worked well,, so he concluded the problem was in T-Bird.. He had me change my port to 587 & disable connection security & authentication to none & I was able to send mail.. That was all he could do.. Comcast was working.. the problem is in T-Bird.. Can any one help with this problem.. I don't want to send mail with my password transmitted insecurely..
    Thanks
    Richard

    It was not intended to be "snide". You said two separate things that at face value would be out of the ordinary.
    I considered if it might be a typo for 31.7. Since 31.5 is the current formal release, I would have to thank you for volunteering to test a pre-release beta version. If it was truly 3.1.7 then it would appear that you have chosen, or have become stuck with a somewhat ancient version. In either case it's harder to reach out to you with any meaningful comments or advice. However I do watch various other sites and newsgroups and I don't see a clamour of distressed users, so it seems fair to suppose that this feature isn't actually broken in 31.7.
    And you said XP 64. XP is obsolete and no longer supported and if there is a 64-bit version, then again you have set yourself apart from the mainstream.
    I had a look at the comcast site and found some puzzling recommendations. Some users come here asking how to set up a secured connection in Thunderbird when it isn't offered by the server. Comcast are different, in that they mention the ports 143 and 587, and also 993 and 465. So far so good, in that security is actually on offer, but they also suggest that you enable SSL, regardless of which port is being used. It would be unusual and unconventional to offer TLS or SSL on ports 143 and 587. STARTTLS would be more credible on these ports.
    Have you tried IMAP on 993 and SMTP on 465? SMTP on 587 with SSL, or TLS, is not impossible, but is improbable.

    not able to make outgoing calls in iphone4. Regularly i face this problem, at the same time i receive incoming call, can do net surfing, can access email and sms, only outgoing calls get failed every time. please answer to solve this problem

    Good day Sidharth Namrta,
    It sounds like you are unable to make any calls, but you can recieve them, and everything else seems to work fine. I recommend you use the troubleshooting in the following article to help you get that resolved, named:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting issues making or receiving calls
    Follow the steps below to resolve this issue. Please test after each step.
    Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings > Enable Airplane Mode, wait five seconds, then turn off airplane mode.
    Check your phone settings:
    Check your Do Not Disturb settings: Tap Settings > Do Not Disturb.
    Check for any blocked phone numbers: Tap Settings > Phone > Blocked.
    See if Call Forwarding is turned on: Tap Settings > Phone > Call Forwarding.
    Ensure that your software is up to date:
    Check for a carrier settings update.
    Check for an iOS software update. 
    Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
    If the iPhone has a SIM card, reseat the SIM card.
    If the iPhone 4 or iPhone 4s is on the Verizon network, dial *228 from the iPhone and select option 2 to update the Preferred Roaming List (PRL). The PRL determines the cellular towers the phone uses for cellular service, selecting those with the best signal strength.
    Reset the network settings: Tap  Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    Try to make or receive calls in another location.
    Attempt to isolate to one network band:
    If you're having the issue on LTE, disable LTE, if possible, and try again.
    If you're having the issue on 3G/4G, disable 3G/4G, if possible, and try again.
    Contact the carrier to check the following:
    Your account is properly configured to use the specific iPhone that has the issue.
    There are no localized service outages.
    Your account doesn't have a billing-related block.
    Your calls don't have errors on the carrier system.
    Restore the phone as new.
    If the above steps don't resolve the issue, go to an Apple Retail Store, carrier, Apple Authorized Reseller, or contact AppleCare to send the phone in for service.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the very best,
    Sterling

    Yes I have turned imessage off a number of times and that does not seem to he doing the trick, and it is not delivering them then I have to press on the photo and either chose try again or send as text message, I have had the setting on to not allow sending pictures as texts (so they can only send as imessage) since I got my phone in January and it has always worked until now, I have turned that off to allow me to send them as picture messages now but it's still not working over iMessage, I have also tried it using 3G and not wifi

    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
