How do I send an imessage to an IPAD user from my desktop?

When using my iphone, its easy to send a message to an ipad user.  Knowing their appleid is part of the battle.  But sending a message using my notebook/desktop does not seem as easy.  Please tell me that I am missing something very simple.  I am also using this in business.  So if I have a way to communicate with my staff via ipads/desktop/notebook, that would be great.  Maybe there is a way of doing so using my chat app on my notebook?

iMessages or any form of text messaging is not available on any desktop or laptop.

  • How can I send "new" iMessages to apple users?

    I am unable to send new iMessages but I can send iMessages from previous threads. How can I send new iMessages to other apple users?

    Just click the button in the top right corner that looks like a pencil on a piece of paper make sure you are at the main I message screen were all the threads are listed.
    If that's not the issue you can try:
    1.hold the home and power button for 10-11 seconds
    2. When the slide to power off comes up ignore that and keep holding home and power
    3. The screen will go black and you will see an apple logo that's when you can let go of the home and power button
    4. The. iPhone will come back on and you can try sending a message
    If it still does not work
    1. Go to settings> General> Reset> select "Reset All Settings" this will not erase any data on the device it will only reset the settings
    2. After that try to send a message again
    If that does not work you can try this
    1. Plug your iPhone into iTunes and click your iPhone in iTunes
    2. Then press backup iPhone
    3. Then restore your iPhone this will erase everything and reinstall the operating system
    4. Try to send a message and see if it sends
    5. Then go back into iTunes and select restore from backup and select the backup you made earlier this will put all the data back on the device all apps will need to be re downloaded but app data will still be on the device. Pictures and messages. Will also be their.
    If that did not solve your issue I would then go into the apple retail store

    how can i send an imessage to a person i dont know his phone number but know his email he uses for imessage ?

    Add a contact with his e-mail address, and send a message to that contact. I would say integrate, but not 100% that it works. A new contact would work.

    How do I send am iMessage to a friend that has an iPad device? She is in my contacts but when I enter her name it won't work. (*note she has no other apple devices.)

    Has she registered her e-mail address and/or phone number with iMessage? Are you using the same one that she registered?
    She should open Settings > iMessage and make sure that it's set up.

  • How do you send a imessage to ipad from iphone

    How do you send a imessage to ipad from iphone

    The iPad must have iMessage registered and enabled, and you need to address the iMessage to an email address that is set up and selected to be used with iMessage on the iPad. If the iPad owner also has an iPhone, an iMessage can be addressed to the iPhone's cell phone number if the iPad owner has their iPhone number selected to be reached at with iMessage on the iPad.

  • How can I send scanned files, which are documents changed from doc to PDF, as documents that can be edited if the recipient doesn't have Adobe capabilities?

    How can I send scanned files, which are documents changed from doc to PDF, as documents that can be edited if the recipient doesn't have Adobe capabilities?

    Hi flaviusjack,
    If you still have the .doc files, it might be best to send those to your recipients so they can be edited. Otherwise, you can use ExportPDF to convert the PDF files back to .doc format. But, again, that step would be unnecessary if you have the .doc files.
    Best,

  • HT3529 Why when i send an imessage to another iphone user it sometimes sends as atxt message and the other person doesnt end up getting the message?

    Sometimes when i send an imessage to another iphone user it comes out as a txt message. I was just wandering why this happens and sometimes when it does the message is never sent to the person.

    You can have a separate AppleID only for iMessage and keep using the other one for iTunes.
    Just change the AppleID used for iMessage in Settings > Messages > Receive At

  • My iPhone 4 sending a iMessage to another iPhone user, the message will send then says not delieverd? So I have to send it as a normal text message .

    Hey! So I'm having a problem with sending an IMessage to another iPhone user and they are having the same problem. The problem is; is that I send a message to them it will attempt to send then will say under the message that it was not delivered? So I send it as a normal text message. Weird part is that we both have full service and have the phone bills paid. Lol

    There is an earlier thread that was answered by an Apple employee that states they are seeing the iMessage and Facetime servers are down. It is unknown when they will return, however it generally is not an extended period of time.

  • Why can't I send an imessage on my ipad, but i can on my iphone? (Same receiver)

    I can't send an imessage on my ipad, but I can when using my iphone. The message is being sent to the same person on both devices, but only the iphone sends it. The receiver is registered with imessage, but when I go to send the message, it says "this person is not registered with imessage". Also, emails do not work either. The send button is grey, and I am registered with imessage. Why does this happen? help?

    OK.
    Turn off and on (restart) your iOS device (press and hold the Sleep/Wake button for a few seconds, then slide the slider.)
    If restarting doesn’t fix it:
    It has been reported that changing your DNS settings fixes this issue. To change DNS servers, follow these instructions for iOS devices (iPhone, iPod touch, iPad):
    Tap Settings
    Tap Wi-Fi on the left-hand side
    Tap the blue arrow next to your current Wi-Fi network
    Tap the “DNS” field and enter the DNS servers; 8.8.8.8
    Now see if it is working.

  • How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was broken. I bought a new one but now it won't charge. I have a BATTERY bar in the middle of the screen that is flashing RED and I have a symbol on the bottom that looks like a charger.

    How do I restore my Ipad 4 from my desktop computer? My charger was damaged so I bought a new one but it won't charge. On my Ipad, I have a BATTERY bar in the middle that is flashing RED and an icon on the bottom that looks like the end of a charger. I have tried to force into reset mode, by holding the sleep key and home button SEVERAL times but it does NOT work. I have plugged my Ipad into my desktop computer, but I do not have a screen on my desktop that is coming up. THIS HAPPENED BEFORE AFTER I DID AN UPDATE AND WAS LOCKED OUT AND I USED EITHER ICLOUD OR ITUNES TO RESTORE, NOT SURE WHICH AND I FORGOT HOW.

    Hi MrsMoosie,
    I'm sorry to hear you are having these issues with your iPad. If your iPad isn't responding or doesn't appear to be charging, you may find the information and troubleshooting steps outlined in the following articles helpful, in particular the following portion:
    If you don't see the charging screen within an hour, or you see the connect to power screen, check your connector, USB cable, and power adapter. Make sure that everything is plugged in firmly, free of debris, and not damaged. You might want to try a different USB cable or power adapter.
    If your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch doesn't respond or doesn't turn on - Apple Support
    If you can’t charge your iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch - Apple Support
    Regards,
    - Brenden

  • How do I stop my MacBook removing all my icons from the desktop ?

    How do I stop my MacBook removing all my icons from the desktop ?

    Hi Matt
    After I create say a word document, file it on my desktop and then shut down my machine. The next time I open up the MacBook the file icon has been removed from the desktop. I can still retrieve the file in a folder labeled with the month I created it. But why has the OS removed it from the desktop and how can I stop it happening?
    It happens to alias icons as well!

    How can I completely get my iPhone and iPad disconnected from iTunes Match? I don't usually have Cloud access and find iTunes Match to be very annoying.

    Csoud1 is correct. But if you still want to keep your iTunes Match subscribed and did not want to sync with your iOS devices, do the following:
    On you iOS devices, just go to Setting > Music > disable iTunes Match

  • How do I send an iMessage, a step by step answer. I have read the manual and it doesnt explain how

    Can someone explain how you send an iMessage. I know how to send texts and emails but I only want to use the iMessage so that my company bill doesnt show text numbers called. I have got iMessage turned on in settings. I have read the manual and it says you can do it but it doesnt say how.

    Thanks for your response. It helps a little. I now dont know how to change the send button from green to blue. What determines how the message is sent?
    I know in the settings I can turn off "send as sms" so that should stop text messages being sent. I went through my contact list and selected a few people at random and noticed the send button was green for some and blue for others so I am thinking it may be either something they do to let me iMessage them or it is something I have to do in my contact list.
    Do you know?
