Friend not getting texts because she doesn't have iphone
Hi, I'm having this issue, I have a friend who does not have an iphone but my iphone keeps saying I do and whenever I try to text her its in imessage. She never gets the texts which I assume are because of this issue. I've tried deleting her contact info, I've tried a whole host of things and it is not working, can someone help?
Follow these steps:
Go to "Settings > Messages", then turn OFF iMessage at the top.
When you text her, tap on the message, and then click "Send as text message" when the pop up appears at the bottom. iMessage is only available on iPhone to iPhone messages.

have an ipod and then got the wife an iphone4. all passwords are screwed up. she can not access playstore cuz she doesn't have password. i can not get find any help on how to get or update a password for the ipod. and then get her a separate password for her iphone. we need to save her photos, music, etc to ? icloud and the phone stuff to verizon cloud? so when she gets her new Iphone6 she can have all her "stuff" back on the new phone. hope this makes sense. please offer suggestions here or at [email protected] thanks for your help!
Oh no! I'm sorry to see there's a lot of confusion here and data shared, x-rayDon. We can definitely work to fix. This happens when two devices share the same Apple ID, so she will need to reset hers. She can do so by assessing this link Apple - My Apple ID. You will need to decide who will keep the account if want separate Apple IDs since purchases cannot be shared unless you do Family Sharing.

Switched to a new phone, not getting texts because they're being sent as iMessages?
So, looking for a change, I switched from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3. I still have my iPhone (without a carrier, I only use it for group iMessages and FaceTime and such) and I'm having a problem when texting friends where their messages are sending as iMessages to my iPhone, which is off, with WiFi turned off and iMessage turned off (I turn both WiFi and iMessage off, as well as the actual iPhone, when I'm not using it to try and avoid this issue, but it's not working so far). I wouldn't have as much of a problem with this if it was consistent, but sometimes I'll be in the middle of a conversation with a friend on my Galaxy S3 and out of nowhere they'll stop responding. I won't think anything of it until the next time I turn my iPhone on and see that they did respond, it just sent as an iMessage even though my iPhone was off and they were texting me only minutes before.
Here's an example:
Sonia: Hey Jesse do you have the group code?
Me: I thought Paul gave it to you like a week ago lemme check
Sonia: Haha he didn't! Thanks
*I saw her after this message and we talked awhile, then I texted her again afterwards*
Me: Let me know if you want any help
*No response*
I didn't think anything of it cuz my text didn't neccessarily need a response. However, I went on my iPhone the next day and saw a new message from Sonia so I opened it and saw this:
Sonia: Hey Jesse do you have the group code?
Sonia: Haha he didn't! Thanks
Sonia: Thanks Jesse
I talked to her afterwards and she said she didn't know her messages had sent as iMessages because they also sent as texts. However sometimes the messages will only send as iMessages (like the last message she sent) and I won't get them at all until I turn my iPhone on. Does anyone have any idea how I can fix this? I want my number completely removed from iMessage but when trying to remove it on my iPhone it's grayed out, unlike the emails. The emails are fine because I still want to talk in group chats and FaceTime and stuff.
Thanks in advance for any help!OverLook2011 wrote:
Cal AppleCare and have them revoke the certificae is the fastest and easiest, and as far as i see, the only way to resolve this issue
No certificate is involved when using iMessage. Where you get that idea I have no idea cuz all one has to do is disable / sign out of iMessage on the iPhone. -
HT3302 what if i pay for the iPod to get fixed, because it doesn't have warranty anymore?
my iPod touch 4 has accidently gotten wet, to where the screen is turning blank. The warranty has ran out, like about 2 years ago, and Apple won't fix it for free, i know that for a fact. What if I pay for the iPod to get it fixed? Will Apple still fix it? If so, How much?
If your iPod Touch, iPhone, or iPad is Broken
Apple does not fix iDevices. Instead, they exchange yours for a refurbished or new replacement depending upon the age of your device and refurbished inventories. On rare occasions when there are no longer refurbished units for your older model, they may replace it with the next newer model.
ATTN: Beginning July 2013 Apple Stores are now equipped to do screen repairs/replacements in-house on iPhone 5s. In some cases while you wait. According to Apple this is the beginning of equipping Apple Stores with the resources needed to do most repairs for iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches that would not require major replacements. Later in the year the services may be extended as Apple Stores become equipped and staffed with the proper repair expertise. So, if you need a screen repaired or a broken screen replaced or have your stuck Home button fixed, call your local Apple Store to see if they are now doing these in-house.
You may take your device to an Apple retailer for help or you may call Customer Service and arrange to send your device to Apple:
Apple Store Customer Service at 1-800-676-2775 or visit online Help for more information.
To contact product and tech support: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers.

iPad Service Support and Costs
There are third-party firms that do repairs on iDevices, and there are places where you can order parts to DIY if you feel up to the task:
1. iResq or Google for others.
2. Buy and replace screen yourself: iFixit -
Can not get Text-to-Speech to work
I can not get Text-to-Speech to work. In "Settings", I can go into "Voice input & output", then to "Voice Output; Text-to-speech settings" and then to "Install voice data; Install the voice data required for speech synthesis" but it is "grayed out". I have downloaded Pico TTS several times and I have soft-reset and hard-reset the device several times. Still no text-to-speech
Any thoughts on what I can do to get text to speech to work?posted11 wrote:
Odd.... I tried both Vlingo and Handcent and neither of those did Text to speech either. Very odd. I am using same Bluetooth headset that worked on my other HTC device.
Any other thoughts?
Did you activate InCar in Vlingo? I just checked this and it works for me. Once you activate InCar, you should hear "Vlingo InCar".
If Vlingo InCar doesn't work for you, have you considered getting another Bluetooth headset that has the ability to read texts to you, like the Blueant Q2? -
irecently gifter a song to my sister and just found out she didnt get it because she changed her email provider. how do i resend the gift?
If you share an Apple ID, both of your phone numbers should be linked to that ID. You should be able to use your phone number as well. My wife, my daughter and I all share an Apple ID for purchases, and we each text from our iOS devices using our own iPhone numbers.
When iOS 6 came out, you were able to link the phone number with your Apple ID to use for Messages and FaceTime. You will need to sign out of messages on all devices and then start the process all over again.
Take a look at this.

I have an ipod touch 4g. I did not have wifi for three days and when I came home my friends said they texted me when i didnt have signal. The messages i received when i did not have signal are not showing up. Can someone please help me?
You said "The messages i received when i did not have signal are not showing up."
How do you know received them?
If the sender got a message that the Messagers were not delivered than they were never delivered and the only way for you to get them is for the sender to resent them -

Switched from iPhone 5 to Galaxy Note 3 and not getting texts

Turned off I message. Now what?Do not expect ANY help from Apple.
I switched to a Samsung Galaxy Note 3 and have been gettig the run around for the last FOUR weeks...the tech I spoke with only returned one of my many phone calls after our initial conversation (in which she told me she reset the computer and I should be all set in 48 hours) to say it should clear itself up, there is nothing she can do to help. -
I have a ipod 5th gen and i changed my password because everyone knew it. I had forgotten it and now it is fully disabled. I can not get it online anymore and i have tried everything to get it restored. Please help as I am really worried
Disabled
Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.
iOS: Wrong passcode results in red disabled screen
If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.
How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
For how to restore:
iTunes: Restoring iOS software
To restore from backup see:
iOS: Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.
You can redownload most iTunes purchases by:
Downloading past purchases from the App Store, iBookstore, and iTunes Store
If problem what happens or does not happen and when in the instructions? When you successfully get the iPod in recovery mode and connect to computer iTunes should say it found an iPod in recovery mode. -

However, after your remove the Apple software components also remove the iCloud Control Panel via Windows Programs and Features app in the Window Control Panel. Then reinstall all the Apple software components

I have upgraded to IOS 7 and now I wish I did not as I have lost face time and iMessage and they would not get activated no mater what I have tried .it seems they are trying to get connected but are unable to do so.
It is becoming frustrating to try to get it activated .
I do not know how to get it activated when it keeps informing me that there is no net work connected
Could not sign in please check your network connection and try again.
For both iMessage and FaceTime .
Any radical solution that you have will be appreciated as it is becoming frustrating .First, try a system reset. It cures many ills and it's quick, easy and harmless...
Hold down the on/off switch and the Home button simultaneously until you see the Apple logo. Ignore the "Slide to power off" text if it appears. You will not lose any apps, data, music, movies, settings, etc.
If the Reset doesn't work, try a Restore. Note that it's nowhere near as quick as a Reset. It could take well over an hour! Connect via cable to the computer that you use for sync. From iTunes, select the iPad/iPod and then select the Summary tab. Follow the on-screen directions for Restore and be sure to say "yes" to the backup. You will be warned that all data (apps, music, movies, etc.) will be erased but, as the Restore finishes, you will be asked if you wish the contents of the backup to be copied to the iPad/iPod. Again, say "yes."
At the end of the basic Restore, you will be asked if you wish to sync the iPad/iPod. As before, say "yes." Note that that sync selection will disappear and the Restore will end if you do not respond within a reasonable time. If that happens, only the apps that are part of the IOS will appear on your device. Corrective action is simple - choose manual "Sync" from the bottom right of iTunes.
If you're unable to do the Restore and you have IOS-6 or lower, go into Recovery Mode per the instructions here. Also, if you have IOS-7, read this.
