Having issues sending message from my ipad.

I am attempting to send a message to a friend. We both have and iPhone and iPad. I can send him a message only from my iPhone but he does not receive when I send from my iPad. Requesting assistance to troubleshoot.  

Hi Friend,
iMessages and Facetime are not available in some countries, so please check it first.
Be sure you do not turn on Restrictions in your device.
Turn off Show Subject in Settings>>Message
Reset the Network Setting, which makes your phone to forget every networks and passwords that you connected your phone to.
to reset the Network Settings just go to Settings - General - Reset (at the bottom) - Reset Network Settings.
I remember when I reset the Network Settings, i turned off iMessages. I connected to my home Wi-Fi and surfed the web for a little while. Sent some regular SMS messages, and about 10min later, I turned on iMessages again and sent a text to a friend with an iPhone and it started working as iMessage! Baloons finally became blue.
Try to unsign and sign in again.
For FaceTime and iMessage chosse to use your email address instead of your mobile number.
Go to Settings>>Message>>Send&Receive and set your email address.
If it is still not working, unsign your Apple ID and select your mobile number ("+" "country code" "mobile number").
Go to www.apple.com or Settings>>iCloud then access your Apple ID. There you can edit your information, placing your phone number and tap OK. then go to iMessage settings and mark your phone number to receive iMessages.
Also check in: Settings>>Message if you turned on iMessage before. Here, turn off "Show Subject Field".
Change your address for your currently location. If not works, change it for your native country.
Did you turn on iCloud as well?
Hope it helps

  • Why don't I receive iMessages on my iPad when sent to my iPhone?  When I send messages from my iPad, they show up on my iPhone, but doesn't hold true the opposite way?

    Why don't I receive iMessages on my iPad when sent to my iPhone?  When I send messages from my iPad, they show up on my iPhone, but doesn't hold true the opposite way?

    Ok. So I figured out that I can add the email address to my iPhone 4s to receive the iMessages sent/received from my iPad. How do I get the messages on my iPad that were sent to my iPhone?  Is it possible?

    Im having trouble sending messages from my iPhone 4..ever since i upgraded to iOS 5, its giving me this problem. It says your SMS mailbox is full. Delete some messages to recieve new messages. 
    I've deleted around 10 huge conversations, rebooted it, restored it, done a soft and hard reset too. What should i do?

    my boyfriend restored his iphone as a brand new phone and still had this problem, he deleted all his text conversations except mine and his best friend's conversations still nothing, i told him to delete OUR conversation since its a 2 year conversation that he has NEVER deleted ..... he said YES!! we tried to delete it and the phone freezes as soon as we click on the CLEAR CONVERSATION button!!!! we tried about 5 times and this happened everytime we tried!!!! ....is like the phone doesnt wanna let go of our conversation!!! every other conversation he deleted the phone was fine except for when we try and delete ours!!
    so yesterday he left his phone alone around 4 pm since we have the apple appointment today at 130pm.......around 11 pm last night his phone went NUTS receiving all the text messages i had sent and never received!!!! and now the phone works just fine!!! ...... CONFUSED?????? yeah we are too!!!
    but we're still going to the apple store to see what they can tell us!!!

    More information would be important.  No idea if you're talking about email messages or iMessage or something else entirely.  If you're referring to iMessage, note that you cannot use that to text any non-iOS device...  Only other iPads, iPods or iPhones.

  • IMessage isn't sending messages from my iPad or iPhone

    I constantly get message send failure on my iPad v1, even though I've used my original apple ID (ie the one linked to itunes rather than my mobileme / icloud account) and it appears to go through and activate / verify correctly. To be clear I've tried to send to to other accounts of friends who have ios5 and iMessage working - it just doesn't work for me.
    Incidentally, I'm also having imessage troubles on my 3GS with it too appearing to be setup (as above), but only green mms messages are sent, rather than blueiMessages.
    And to cap it all, I can't even get past the iMessage activation section on my ipod 3rd generation!!
    Help would be very welcome
    Thanks

    No. Clipboard copied text and elements are not persisted. All that would be there is the last thing copied.

  • TS2755 I am having difficulty sending messages on my iPad. the send button will not activate. Can someone help?

    My ipad will not send messages using imessage. I works and then stops as if it is locked up. My iphone works well as does my macpro. Any suggestions?

    Did you try downloading the movie from iTunes on your iPad?  I know it takes longer but I'd try that. 
    Also try to reset all settings. 
    Settings > General > Reset. Reset all settings.

  • How do I set up iMessage so I can send messages from my iPad to my iPhone using the same apple id

    I am trying to set up iMessage so I can send and receive messages on my iphone 5 and my iPad using the same apple id.

    I assume that you want to keep the same Apple ID on both devices for downloads and purchases but you just want to know how you can use Messages on both devices without creating a new Apple ID.
    On one of the two devices ....Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at>add another email address ... and enter another working email address. After you enter the email address and it is verified by Apple, go to the InBox of that email account, read the email from Apple and follow the instructions to complete the verification. Then go back to the settings and remove your Apple ID email address. You will now use that new email address at the contact at email address for messages on that device.
    You can keep your Apple ID email address and use that one on the other device.

    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.
