Cannot send or receive some text messages

I just got the iphone 4s, and am having problems sending and receiving some text messages, it is saying "Message Send Failure"

Same problem persists also here. Have crosschecked with friend, all same settings, have deleted the contacted, created again, still that number does not receive my SMS (no question on iMessage). Can not even reply her message. This problem persists with few numbers, nothing common, different phones, different countries, different operators. All others, with different operators, in different coutries receive my messages. Even other people can send their SMS to her.

  • I cannot send or receive group text messages as well as pictures messages / MMS. What should I do? The settings on Messages was set to receive group texts but it does not solve the problem.

    I cannot send or receive group text messages and picture messages / MMS.  The settings on Messages are already set to receive group texts but it does not help. What should I do?

        Wow, 1yerdua. That's far too long to be having this messaging trouble. We want to find the resolution fast! If you turn off your Lumia's WiFi (Menu > Settings > WiFi), are you still able to access data-oriented applications like Internet Explorer? Have you been to other areas of the state/country and experienced the same trouble?

  • I cannot send or receive SMS text messages and my number is not showing up in the 'Recieve At' location..how do I fix this?

    I just bought and activated a new Iphone 4s and I cannot send or receive normal SMS text messages. Also, my number is not showing up in the "receive at" location. Any help??

    Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
    Beyond that... since you state you've tried all "recommended fixes" have you actually restored as new and not from your backup?

  • My iPhone 5 with latest version of iOS 6 won't receive some text messages (not iMessages)

    My IPhone 5 with latest version of ios 6 won't receive some text messages. All text messages not received are from different people on the same carrier (not mine). Some messages come through if they repeatedly send them. I have tried resetting network settings. This fixes the issue for 10 minutes or so before I don't receive the messages again. I dont have iMessage on and I've tried a restore.

    Hi,
    I had the same issue.
    After resetting the network settings everything works fine again.
    YouTube App and the videos you posted above didn't play.
    After resetting, they are playable.
    Try it out.
    Best regards,
    Tolga

  • I have an iPhone 4, and iOs 5.1. Suddenly I cannot send or recieve SMS/text messages but iMessage is working - any help appreciated.

    iOS 5 handles texts differently than previous versions.  Resetting the network connections helps, but that didn't seem to solve your problem, and neitherdid the simple reset. 
    Try deleting old messages from the messages app, then after clearing up a lot, just do a simple restart of your phone.  If you want to be extra sure, try resetting your network connections again.  I had this same problem.  Your last option would be a complete restore of the phone, but I don't think we'll have to go that far. 

  • I am not receiving some texts messages as of 2 days ago

    Please help. I am new to the site. My iPhone 4s just started not receiving some text messages in the last 2 days. Any ideas?

    There's a small vocabulary issue here.
    "Reset" means a specific action, which does not involve iTunes at all.  You reset your iPhone by holding the on/off and home buttons together for about 10 seconds till the Apple logo appears.  You could try that - it's risk free - but probably would not work.
    "Restore" (not reset) is something you do using iTunes.  Plug your iPhone into iTunes on your computer (current version: 11.1.3).  Let it sync.  Then choose "Restore" from the iPhone's summary tab in iTunes.

  • Cannot send or receive sms text or phone calls

    I have a storm2 9550 unlocked and am using Tmobile Pay as you go. I have tried several times to disable the password, mostly by wiping the phone. Now i cannot make a call or receive a call or send or receive a text. On the phone calls I get  a busy signal and an error message  SMS error 97 message ID 40. Any help would be appreciated.

    Hello dbond,
    To correct this issue you would need to remove the IT policy from your BlackBerry smartphone.
    To do this we would need to back up the BlackBerry smartphone. Please open the BlackBerry Desktop Manager and connect your BlackBerry smartphone. Click on the Backup and Restore button and select Back Up. Please note the location where the backup is being saved as we will need to access it later to restore the BlackBerry smartphone.
    Once you have backed up your BlackBerry smartphone please follow the link below to remove the IT policy from your BlackBerry smartphone

  • Cannot send or receive group text if someone is not on an apple phone

    Does anyone else have this problem or have a solution to this issue?  Has been like this since I got the phone and Apple says it is Verizon AND Verizon says it is Apple!  I cannot send or receive a group text!  Help!

    i have the same issue with AT&T. My phone receives picture and group texts just fine, but responding to group texts fails.
    Disabling MMS allows you to send texts to multiple people at the same time but doesn't set up the group chat environment so that responses can be automatically sent to everyone as well. you end up receiving text responses from each recipient in a separate thread.
    AT&T has also stated that it is an iPhone issue, but I have yet to ask apple what they think the problem is. Since the issue sounds identical to KKONO's, I'd assume the response would be that I should speak with AT&T about it. :\
    It doesn't really make sense that the carrier would be the one at fault since if MMS were really dysfunctional it would have much more widespread affects than just disabling group chat response. Send/Receive picture text and receive group chat should also be disabled. Since the problem is isolated only to responding to group chat, I'd think it's more likely an issue with apple iOS.
    Any thoughts?

    Hello tonys4004,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    If you'd like to set up your iOS devices for SMS using Continuity, please see the information outlined below.
    SMS
    With Continuity, all the SMS and MMS text messages you send and receive on your iPhone also appear on your Mac, iPad, and iPod touch. Even if the person you’re communicating with doesn’t have an iPhone. And regardless of what phone they have, you can reply from whichever device is closest to you, including your iPad or Mac. You can also initiate a  conversation by clicking a phone number in Safari, Contacts, or Calendar.
    To use Continuity for SMS and MMS with your iPhone and your Mac, iPad or iPod touch
    Your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch need to use iOS 8.1, and your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
    Sign in to iMessage on your iPhone, your other iOS devices, and your Mac using the same Apple ID.
    On your iPhone:
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By, and add a check to both your phone number and email address.
    Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.
    Your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch will display a code. Enter this code on your iPhone to verify the SMS feature.
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    Take care,

  • Cannot send or receive new texts

    Having trouble sending and receiving text messages. My messages or going to my email and when I try sending I get an exlamation in a red circle with "not delivered" in red under the messages. Can anyone help?

    Hi Ewan, Is it a contract you have been moved to? What happens when you try to make a call? I recently had a new contract and due to having bad credit history I had a deposit of £100 placed on my account which blocked me from making any calls or texts. The deposit is something you get back after 6 months either off your bill or paid back to you on the condition you pay your bills on time and in full.

  • I phone will not send or receive ANY text messages.

    My daughter has an iphone and it recently stopped sending or receiving text messages.  We have done several resets, spent hours on the phone with tech support, been sent a new phone, and can't seem to get this resolved.  I'm curious if anyone else has had a similar issue?

    are you talking about storage or data as in how much you can download from the Internet with your carrier each month?

  • Why does my iPhone 4 receive some text messages whilst others get lost?

    Having a problem with text messages as some are not being received by my phone , quite frustrating any ideas anyone?

    Has nothing to do with your iPhone. After a message is sucessfully sent, what happens to the message after that has nothing to do with the phone that sent the message or with the recipient's phone.
    Contact your carrier.
