  • Every time I send a text, it sends the same message twice

    I have had my phone for about a week now and every time I send a text to someone it sends the message twice.
    I have no idea why this is happening. What can I do to stop it from sending the message twice?

        Hi samglow!
    Let's take a look into this, we want your messages sent only once. Let me ask...are you using a 3rd party application for messaging, or the app that came with the phone? Are you receiving messages just once, or more than once? What's the software version of your device?
    To troubleshoot, please remove the SIM from the device, and power off/on. Then, test again.
    Thanks!

    If he has iMessage on his iPad set to receive at his iPhone's phone number, that is exactly what is supposed to happen.  There's nothiing you can do - he needs to remove his iPhone number from his "you can be reached at" iMessage settings on his iPad.

  • How do I stop my iPhone from ringing every time I send a text message?

    I can find no settings for an alert when a text msg is sent, but my phone rings every time I send one.

    Are you sending the texts with the Messages app that Apple bundled with the iPhone or are you sending the message with some other app?
    If you're using the Messages app, try restarting or restoring your iPhone.
    If you're using some other app, try tapping Settings and then the App name to adjust it's preferences.

  • How come every time I send a text it says Message failure

    It just started happening a couple of days ago, every time I send a text message to people it says "message failed to deliver" and I have to resend the text.
    What does this mean its driving me nuts !!
    H E L P !!

    Hi Nessaa95,
    Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
    I understand that sometimes when you send a message from your iPhone, you see an alert that the message failed to deliver. In this situation, I would recommend reading over and working through the troubleshooting steps in the attached article. 
    If you can't send or receive messages on your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support

  • Why does my GS4 freeze every time I send or recieve a group message?

    Every time I send or receive a group text, my phone freezes. No response from any buttons; there is nothing I can do but wait. VERY time consuming to use group messaging. I'm not using a 3rd party messaging program, I've tried clearing the cache, restarting the messaging program, restarting the phone, resetting the phone, nothing works. Problem has existed ever since I've had the phone, so it has nothing to do with the update. Anyone else having this problem? Any ideas?

    It only happens while in a group message. The phone should not be lacking memory, as I have very few apps installed. I've tried a soft reset, but am hesitant to do a hard reset because of losing what apps and personalization I do have.
    I installed the Verizon Messages app, and it seems to work better. But I don't like the design/features of the app, so I don't want to have to use it.

  • Every time I send a message, I get a message from myself

    I have a ITunes account that I share with a friend, and i don't know what happeNed but now every time I send a message I receive it on my phone

    Hi ThatBoyBraulio,
    If you are receiving messages that you send from your iPhone and have a non-standard configuration (such as a shared account), you may want to see how you have Messages configured for starting and receiving conversations, as outlined in the following article:

    Every time i send a message on my ipod, it shows up on my dads iphone...How can I stop that from happening?

    Did you read the link I provided in my first reply?
    You have to go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and uncheck the phone number and delete/uncheck the email address that you share with the other phone. If you do not already have a different email address add one to the Send and Receive .

  • "Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures on message?

    "Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures on message? Help.  This is also happening on my husband's phone.  I have the 5C and he has the 5S.  This all started about 4-5 weeks ago.  The picture do however go through.

    There have been many, many reports of this lately so I believe it's not anything you're doing.

  • My mother used to be the bill payer on my iTunes account so now every time I send an email from my iCloud account it sent with her name, how can I change the settings so emails are sent from myself?

    My mother used to be the bill payer on my iTunes account so now every time I send an email from my iCloud account it sent with her name, how can I change the settings so emails are sent from myself?
    I've changed the bill payer to myself but it stills says on emails that I sent that its from my mother.

    In order for the "From" field to show you options on the "from" addresses available, you must set them up in the Preferences > Accounts first.
    I can't show you a screen shot of the from field because I currently only have one account, so the from address used is the default. However, when I had more than one, then options will show up in your compose/reply window.
    You'd need to add an account here:

  • Every time I send a photo it sends with "For Review Only" on the photo. How can I remove this so my recipient gets a good quality photo?

    Every time I send a photo it sends with "For Review Only" on the photo. How can I remove this so my recipient gets a good quality photo?

    If you used the Apple Professional Training Series 'Aperture 3' book, then this was in lesson #1 which had you set the 'Image Export' preset for the 'Email Medium - JPEG' to 25% of Original Size and to add a watermark (which happens to be the PSD file that overlays the image with 'For Review Only').
    You can fix this by going to 'Aperture menu > Presets > Image Export...' and selecting the 'Email Medium - JPEG' preset and then deselecting the 'Show Watermark' option.
    Note - you can also reset the 'Percentage of Original' field to %100 to get back to the defaults.
    If you did not use the APTS - Aperture 3 book mentioned above, then I am not sure where you got the watermark.

  • Why do i keep getting "Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures on iMessage? All are sent to other iPhone/iPad users.

    For a few months now, I've been getting "Message Send Failure" every time I send pictures to other Apple devices (iPhones, iPads, Macs), despite the recipient receiving them. So, even though the pictures are going through, the "Message Send Failure" notice keeps showing up. I checked with other people who have Apple devices and they also encountered the same issue whenever they send pictures (usually send an email to make sure it was received).  I thought when iOS 7.1.1 came out that it would fix this issue. Has anyone else encountered the same issue? Thanks!

    I started getting the error on my iPhone 5 (iOS 7.1.x) several weeks ago - if not a month ago. Today I finally decided to run through a wholesale sign-out/sign-in process on all my devices (iMac, MacBook, iPad 1, iPad 3 and iPhone5) and it worked!
    I signed out of iMessage/Messages on all devices. I also deleted my iCloud accounts on all my devices (make sure you tell the software to keep local copies when you are prompted - relax, it all stays in the cloud, too) Then I signed back in to iMessage/Messages and then re-added iCloud accounts all around. I just sent a message with a photo attachment and did not get the "Not Delivered" message - yay!
    (FYI - even though I received the error every time I sent a message with an image attachment, the message still went through - very, very happy, though to finally get rid of the message...)
