Help with my iMessage

My iMessage will not activate because my apple ID will not connect. It says to check my server connection. I have already reset my server connection and it is a great connection but still will not work. How can I fix this?

  • Need Help with my Imessage

    i need help with my imessage i am using a Iphone 4 ios 6.1.3 but when i go to settings>message>send and reecieve. i only get the options Apple ID: and You can be reached by iMessage at: my current email and add another email. my question is how do i get it to where imessage uses my cell phone number instead of my Email i have looked all over the web and no luck......

    The hidden text should be sent for you automatically by the phone. From personal experience, this is automatic, but something has obviously tripped up somewhere on your phone.
    It appears from reading the documentation, I would first try signing out of your Apple ID by going to Settings > Messages > Send and Receive then press your Apple ID, and press Sign Out. Then sign back in. This should hopefully trigger a re-activation of your mobile number. Your mobile number should be assigned to your Apple ID on first sign-in so hopefully this signing in and out should trigger an automatic re-activation.
    Failing that, others have posted a reset of the phone, as does the support page I quoted. It appears this could be a last resort as a reset can be a bit of a pain (although if you Back your phone up via iTunes, you should be able to restore it to how it is currently). I would try the signing in and out method. Hopefully, fingers crossed, it should kick your phone back into action.

  • Help with synching iMessage on devices and MacBook

    Hi,
    I have been able to set up iMessage on my iPhone 4S, iPad, and MacBook Air (late 2010 running ML).  I can start a conversation on my MacBook with someone and it will sync to my other devices.  BUT, if someone sends me a text to my cell phone number, the message only shows up on my iPhone and iPad.  What am I doing wrong??
    PLEASE HELP, THIS IS KILLING ME!

    Hello Winston,
    Thank you for your help.  I had done that process and it wasn't until I quit iMessage and restarted it that it worked.
    My issue was with the iMessage Accounts page.  It has a tab that only says to Add Email, but now realize you can put your phone number in that spot too.  Very confusing that Apple didn't add that language there.
    For those that have the same issue, I did the following on my Mac:
    Messages > Preferences > Accounts > You can be reached for messages at > Add Email > enter your cell phone number (this will usually be in addition to your iCloud email address).
    Quit Messages and then re-open Messages
    You should now have the ability to tic your phone number along with the iCloud email (and any others you have and have chosen).
    Now I can receive a text (iMessage) to my phone while I'm on the computer and carry the conversation from there along with any other Apple device.  I hope I described it well enough, but feel free to ask questions.

  • Need some help with iMessage

    Last night I sent someone a message through iMessage. I did not have her phone number but I sent it to the email address she uses on her iPad. It went out and shows in green (so it seems it went as sms?????). I did get one message back to the same device. She also sent two other messages but they only arrived on my old iPhone that no longer has 3G. The ones that arrived on my old iPhone did not duplicate themselves on the new iPhone (iMessages are supposed to go to all your iOS devices).
    I'm also an old MobileMe customer so I get email to both .mac and .me
    Anyone have a clue as to the best setup for iMessage and why only one device got the messages?

    Hi, wjosten.
    I got IMessage to work but I think something is up with my phone. I can't receive any messages from anyone, on or off of Wi-Fi. I don't think it is IMessage that is doing this but I'm trying my best to get this fixed. Thank you for your help with getting IMessage to work.
    I am sure its my carrier or my IPhone so i will be going to my nearest Sprint store as soon as i can.
    Thanks for all your help.

  • HT5824 I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off..

    I switched over from an iPhone to a Samsung Galaxy S3 & I haven't been able to receive any text messages from iPhones. I have no problem sending the text messages but I'm not receivng any from iPhones at all. It has been about a week now that I'm having this problem. I've already tried fixing it myself and I also went into the sprint store, they tried everything as well. My last option was to contact Apple directly. Please help with turning my iMessage completely off so that I can receive my texts.

    If you registered your iPhone with Apple using a support profile, try going to https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do and unregistering it.  Also, try changing the password associated with the Apple ID that you were using for iMessage.

  • My iMessage screen is locked horizontally and will not rotate. When I access the camera through iMessage it will not rotate either. Any help with this will be very much appreciated.

  • Need help with imessage and someone else getting my texts.

    Yesterday i bought a phone, NOT A IPHONE, a samsung. And i got a brand new number. The number i got belonged to someone else before they changed theyre phone, the Person has an iphone but changed their number. They CHANGED their number, but for some reason they are receiving MY TEXTS (only from my friends with iphones/imessage
    ) i was able to get  a hold of him and i told him to just turn off his imessage. I read online about that youre supposed to turn off imessage and reset network settings etc. but i did not know at the time i am worried he will sign back into his apple id and get my messages again, or because he turned off imessage and put it back on while my NOW number be erased from his phone? thanks.

    Wow...OK...let me see if I can understand that...if I boil all of that down, I think we are at this point.
    You still want to send SMS to an email account -- I stand by what I said before; I know of no method that an SMS can be sent to an email. Now, if you are meaning some other kind of "text" or "messages" (there are many many kinds of those), then you will need to clarify exactly what you mean. What I gather from what you've said so far continues to mean "SMS sending to Email".
    You do not have BlackBerry Internet Service on your BB plan from your carrier. As such, you will be limited as per this guideline:

    You may think that BIS is ridiculous, but that is a core function and feature of BB's. Period. Without it, all you have is a phone (IMHO).

    Hello, Toro Silva. 
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    The steps in the section labeled Unable to activate FaceTime or iMessage with phone number and Apple ID after waiting 24 hours (iPhone only) of the article below, should help resolve the issue.  Make sure to create a current backup prior to processing these steps.

  • Need help with security

    Hi. I'm new to this list, and pretty new to web services. I'm
    currently trying to apply security to an existing application, and
    i've been studing the tutorials at sun web
    (http://java.sun.com/webservices/docs/1.4/tutorial/doc/). In the
    simple sample, in the build.xml file, there's a 'gen-server' target
    which i believe creates ties of the service, right? Well, i do the
    same step in my application (just before packaging into a raw war
    file), and move all the generated files, together with my server
    compiled classes, to the WEB-INF dir. Therefore i have all that class
    files in /WEB-INF/classes/hello (i'm doing this with a helloword
    example). Included in those files, theres a file called
    "HelloIF_Tie.class", which i assume is the tie for my service, created
    by the 'gen-server' target.
    After this i create a raw war file using the jar tool, and take the
    generated file to a dir named "dist". Then i try to create a cooked
    war file using the wsdeploy tool. However when i try to run the
    application, the server seems to ignore any security options i have
    configured. Looking into the deployable war file i found that it had
    generated quite a few more class files
    (HelloIF__HelloService__Tie.class between them), and that in the
    jaxrpc-ri-runtime.xml file there was the following line:
    tie='hello.HelloIF__HelloService__Tie'
    This seemed a bit strange to me, since i believed that my tie file was
    HelloIF_Tie.class. Therefore, i tried something: changing that line
    for
    tie='hello.HelloIF_Tie'
    And packaging all into a war file again with the jar tool, everything
    runs fine. However its kind of boring doing this every time i change
    the server code. So my question is...
    is it possible to tell the wsdeploy tool not to generate any tie
    files, and use the ones existing in the raw war file???
    is there any other solution to my problem???
    Im sorry if these questions are stupid, but im still quite novice with
    jwsdp and i dont know if im doing things right. Thank you very much.

    CQAndroid, help is here! I am familiar with this feature and use it with my own laptop and iPhone and well. It's a great feature! It forwards all of your text messages to your phone and Macbook, if you like. There's a few steps to try. First go to your iPhone Messages settings (Settings > Messages > iMessage) and turn off iMessages and turn it on again. Then go to the iMessages Settings on your Mac and do the same. Also make sure to activate your telephone number in the iMessages settings on your Mac. Try this and keep us posted please. Thanks!

  • Help with if statement in cursor and for loop to get output

    I have the following cursor and and want to use if else statement to get the output. The cursor is working fine. What i need help with is how to use and if else statement to only get the folderrsn that have not been updated in the last 30 days. If you look at the talbe below my select statement is showing folderrs 291631 was updated only 4 days ago and folderrsn 322160 was also updated 4 days ago.
    I do not want these two to appear in my result set. So i need to use if else so that my result only shows all folderrsn that havenot been updated in the last 30 days.
    Here is my cursor:
    /*Cursor for Email procedure. It is working Shows userid and the string
    You need to update these folders*/
    DECLARE
    a_user varchar2(200) := null;
    v_assigneduser varchar2(20);
    v_folderrsn varchar2(200);
    v_emailaddress varchar2(60);
    v_subject varchar2(200);
    Cursor c IS
    SELECT assigneduser, vu.emailaddress, f.folderrsn, trunc(f.indate) AS "IN DATE",
    MAX (trunc(fpa.attemptdate)) AS "LAST UPDATE",
    trunc(sysdate) - MAX (trunc(fpa.attemptdate)) AS "DAYS PAST"
    --MAX (TRUNC (fpa.attemptdate)) - TRUNC (f.indate) AS "NUMBER OF DAYS"
    FROM folder f, folderprocess fp, validuser vu, folderprocessattempt fpa
    WHERE f.foldertype = 'HJ'
    AND f.statuscode NOT IN (20, 40)
    AND f.folderrsn = fp.folderrsn
    AND fp.processrsn = fpa.processrsn
    AND vu.userid = fp.assigneduser
    AND vu.statuscode = 1
    GROUP BY assigneduser, vu.emailaddress, f.folderrsn, f.indate
    ORDER BY fp.assigneduser;
    BEGIN
    FOR c1 IN c LOOP
    IF (c1.assigneduser = v_assigneduser) THEN
    dbms_output.put_line(' ' || c1.folderrsn);
    else
    dbms_output.put(c1.assigneduser ||': ' || 'Overdue Folders:You need to update these folders: Folderrsn: '||c1.folderrsn);
    END IF;
    a_user := c1.assigneduser;
    v_assigneduser := c1.assigneduser;
    v_folderrsn := c1.folderrsn;
    v_emailaddress := c1.emailaddress;
    v_subject := 'Subject: Project for';
    END LOOP;
    END;
    The reason I have included the folowing table is that I want you to see the output from the select statement. that way you can help me do the if statement in the above cursor so that the result will look like this:
    emailaddress

    v_folderrsn
    v_folderrsn

    Hoping for some help with a very frustrating issue!
    I have been syncing calendar and contacts on my iPhone 5 and Outlook 2007 using iCloud  2.1.3 (my PC is running Vista). All was well until the events I entered on the phone were showing up in Outlook, but not the other way around. I’ve tried the usual recommended steps: deselecting calendar and contacts in the iCloud control panel and then re-selecting, signing out of the panel and back in, and repairing the Outlook installation in control panel.  I even uninstalled iCloud on the PC and downloaded it again (same version). 
    The furthest I’ve gotten is step 2 (and once, step 3) of 7 while performing “Outlook Setup For iCloud.” At that point I get, “Your setup couldn’t be started because of an unexpected error.”  After the first attempt at all this, all my calendar events disappeared from Outlook, although they are still in iCloud calendar and on my phone.
    Sound familiar?  Any ideas on how to solve this iCloud/Outlook issue?  Thanks much in advance!
