    Go to Settings > Messages and turn iMessage OFF.
    Then go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset Network Settings. Your phone will restart. You will not lose any data, but you will have to re-enter any Wi-Fi network passwords.
    Once the phone has re-started and you have a network connection (either 3G or Wi-Fi), turn iMessage back ON.

  • How do get imessages to work? I can't get it to activate on my ipad3. It says no internet connection or retry, but I do have it turned on; using Wi-Fi.

    I go and sign into my account as if I was signing into my itunes. I believe my account for ipad is the same as for the itunes; correct or not? In need of some help!

    Hi Ba25, when you post a question, it helps those trying to answer if you lay out step by step exactly what you tried to do, what happened etc. You are then more likely to get helpful responses, so people don't have to try and join the dots ;-)
    When you say you "go and sign into your account"... do you mean in settings on your iPad?
    On your iPad, you need to go to Settings app, select Messages. Check that iMessage is turned on.
    The 'Receive At' address should be your Apple ID email address. If not, change it to be that.
    Then go to the Message app. Try sending a new message to someone who also has iMessage up and running.

  • How to get 4G to work (when I don't have WiFi access)?

    OK, I just got my Droid Raxr Maxx yesterday, and so far, I love it. However, now that I'm out of my house and away from a WiFi connection, I am unable to use the browser, check Facebook, shop Google Play, etc. because it tells me I have no internet connection. Any suggestions? I assumed the 4G would take over whenever a WiFi connection wasn't available, but that doesn't seem to be happening. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks in advance.

    I know you haven't had your phone long but here's one feature that is neat to have an i got on my Maxx an it Deals with Wi-Fi an the NetWork  i will Show how to set this Up: The Video below shows how to set up smart Action in General...
    To start this go to the Smart Actions App in your app draw:  tap to go in while there on the main page tap the Green + sign to start you will have 3 choices go with ( Start from Scratch )
    You will then see Triggers an Actions Tap the + for the triggers Select Wi-Fi Connection then you will need to select your Wi-Fi say for example bigbluesky11 once selected you will need to tap it to Enable it. While still on this screen you will see a white box above triggers With New Rule an a bar flashing Tap the Box an put {Home} that's what i put for mine 
    Next you need to set up an Action to do that you tap the + for the Action Select Cellular Data once you select that It will pop up asking to Enable or to Disable Select Disable!
    Once you are done with setting up these Settings down on the bottom of the phone are  {Add Rule}  or  {Cancel}  Choose Add Rule an your Set is complete.
    What does this do you ask it shuts off the Cellular Radio automatically when your home an when leave home an your out of range of the Wi-Fi the Cellular radio kicks back on Automatically. You don't have to mess with turning it on an off all of the Time
    Smart Actions work really well you just got figure How you want to set them Up an an what turns off what an When. Like when i want to Listen to my Ear Phones when i plug them in it automatically kicks on my selection witch is Winamp an all need to do is tap the station i have selected to play my Music. I hope this helps ya out an Question please ask at this Post. b33

  • TS4268 hi just setting up new ipad 2 and cant get imessage to work . when i put in apple id it says password incorrect have checked and reset but still wont work

    hi just setting up new ipad 2 but when trying to use imessage it says sign in with apple id which i do but password doesnt work. have checked it numerous times but no luck. any ideas ?

    The screen "Create Apple ID" is for users without an Apple ID (or someone who has forgotten their password).  Since you do not want to create a new Apple ID, you are on the wrong screen. 
    Go back to the Sign-In screen and then sign-in with your Apple ID (or start over).  The sign-in screen will have both fields to input:  Apple ID and then Password.  The Password screen may be a secondary screen after you input ID and hit Enter.
    Hopefully, your further forays into the Land of iPad will not be as disconcerting as your beginning.  I was also new to Apple (three years ago with the first iPad).  It was a bit aggravating at first, however, now we own multiple Apple computers, peripherals and IOS devices (iPads,iPhone,Apple TV) and really appreciate the functionality and usability.

  • Hey there, for some reason, on my iPod Touch 4th gen, I have never been able to get iMessage to work.When I verify my email address to activate it, it automatically goes back and never allows me to do iMessage. Why is this or what should I do?

    What should I do? This is a great feature, and I want to take advantage of it. Thank you!

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Go to Settings>General>Date&Time and make sure it is set to Automatic
    - Go to Settings>wifi>the connected network and change the DNS to Google's 8.8.8.8
    - Go to Settings>iTunes and App Stores and sign out and sign back in

  • When I switch my time capsule to 5.0ghz mode the range of my wireless network drops significantly.  Near the Time Capsule my Macbook Pro works fine, in my bedroom I have almost no signal.  In mixed mode it works fine.  Any ideas on how to get 5.0 working?

    When I switch my time capsule to 5.0ghz mode the range of my wireless network drops significantly.  Near the Time Capsule my Macbook Pro works fine, in my bedroom I have almost no signal.  In mixed mode it works fine both placed.  Any ideas on how to get 5.0 working?  I thought 5.0Ghz was supposed to have a wider range.  Do I need to change a setting on the Macbook Pro?
    Thanks, W

    I'm not sure if you understand that 5 GHz has some upsides, but also some very significant downsides.
    The upside is that the 5 GHz signal will allow faster speeds.
    The downside is that you must always give up something in order to gain something else.Unfortunately, the marketing hype about 5 GHz does not go into very many details about this.
    In the case of 5 GHz, the 5 GHz signals are much weaker than 2.4 GHz signals, so they do not travel as far or penetrate any obstructions like walls or ceilings nearly as well as 2.4 GHz signals. In many cases, in order to get good 5 Ghz performance, you literally have to have almost a line-of-sight relationship between your computer and the wireless router.
    If you have a new dual band router, which broadcasts both a 2.4 GHz and 5 GHz signal simutaneously, your Mac will connect to the best signal quality automatically depending on its location in relation to the router. In the same room, without any obstructions, it will connec to 5 GHz. But, take the laptop down the hall a few rooms and around the corner and the Mac will connect to the 2.4 GHz signal because at that location, the 2.4 GHz signal is not only stronger, it is also faster.

  • My imessage wont activate and work, and i dont receive messages from people useing imessage? how do i get imessage to work?

    My imessage wont activate and work, and i dont receive messages from people useing imessage? how do i get imessage to work?

    I recently moved back to Australia for school from Canada and signed up for the new iphone 6 plus. After using icloud to save and backup from my previous iphone 4s, all of the apps eventually worked....except for whatsapp. After looking through my phone and numerous chat forums, it appears that my imessage and facetime are stuck in, "waiting for activation".....is anyone else having problems with this?
    I am curious as I am unable to receive the whatsapp code to re-activate my application. This brings me to my second question, is this an iphone/apple problem or a whatsapp third party problem?
    I've had friends send imessages to me and they appear to coming through. I have already rebooted and restarted my phone numerous time. A strong connection to wifi and data stream have all come in loud and clear.
    I have tried all of the directions that were posted and still have no whatsapp and imessage still inconsistent.
    Thank you

    Hi,
    Is there an iPhone involved ?
    If not, what happens  if you remove the Apple ID on the iPad and then set it in Airplane Mode (allow a couple of minutes at this point) followed by re-adding the Apple ID ?
    What, if any error messages are appearing on the Mac when you try to launch the App or Login to the iMessages server ?
    Is the Apple ID linked to an iCloud account ?

  • How to get the Useru2019s position when the user doesnu2019t have CP relation

    We have a custom program which will add / delete attributes (In transaction PPOSA_BBP). It is working fine for users which were assigned with CP relation But it fails for users which doesnu2019t have CP relation (since we are getting the position of users form HRP1001 then we are retrieving the existing attributes based on the position after that updating the attributes) as we are getting the position from HRP1001 it fails for users were no CP relation.
    Help us how to get the Useru2019s position when the user doesnu2019t have CP relation. Suggest us any function module or how to query the HRP1001 or some other table if exists
    Regards
    Paul

    Hi Paul,
    Have a look at these tables.
    Using table BUT000 the central business partner data are stored, f.e. partner type, partner names, partner number, partner guid, person number, etc. In table BUTBKK the bank data to a business partner are stored.
    Central business partner address data
    The table ADRC is used for the address of a business partner. Table BUT020 links the business partner number with the address number. Using table BUT021 several addresses to a business partner with different usages (modes), f.e. correspondence or delivery address, can be stored. The personal data of a business partner person are stored with key person number in table ADRP. The person number is assignd to a business partner person in table BUT000. Communication data of business partners as e-mail, telephone, fax, etc. are stored in the tables ADDR1 u2013 ADDR12. The business address of a contact person or an employee consists of the organization address (company resp. org.-unit) and of an address addition, which describes f.e. a building, a room number, etc. The address addition is stored in table ADCP and is identified by the keys address number of the organization address and person number.
    Relationships between business partners
    Table BUT050 contains the relationships between a business partner organization and a business partner person using relation types. The relation types are defined in table TBZ9, f.e. the relation type u2018has employeeu2019 corresponds to identifier u2018BUR010u2019, the relation type u2018has contact personu2019 corresponds to identifier u2018BUR001u2019. Table BUT051 stores communication data of a contact person relationship (compare to table ADCP). Table BUT052 stores several address numbers to one business partner relationship (including a standard flag).
    Hope this helps,
    Kind Regards,
    Matthew

  • Has anyone figured out how to get speech recognition working with sticky keys enabled on mountain lion?

    I'm trying to use speech recognition to input text on my iMac running the latest mountain lion, 10.8.3.
    I have sticky keys enabled.
    When I try to start speaking by pressing the function key twice nothing happens. I can only get it to work if I disable sticky keys.
    The same problem occurs with all the other modifier keys as shortcut, they do not work with sticky keys.
    When I try to select a different shortcut, I am unable to select a two key combination, but am limited to one.
    If I select the F6 key, or any other single key, I am able to start speech recognition. However the second time that I press the key, it does not stop recognition and process my words. Instead, it restarts the recognition.
    Has anyone figured out how to get speech recognition working with sticky keys enabled?
    Or a way to get an individual key shortcut to start on the first press and process it on the second?
    Or a way to get key combinations to work, as specified by the help:
    Dictation On and Off
    To use Dictation, click On.
    When you’re ready to dictate text, place the insertion point where you want the dictated text to appear and press the Fn (function) key twice. When you see the lighted microphone icon and hear a beep, the microphone is ready for you to speak your text.
    Shortcut
    By default, you press the Fn (Function) key twice to start dictation. If you like, you can choose a different shortcut from the menu.
    To create a shortcut that’s not in the list, choose Customize, and then press the keys you want to use. You can press two or more keys to create your shortcut.

    I noticed with version 10.8.4 of OS X that I am now able to select F6 to activate, and the return key to complete the speech recognition. This is still different than the description of how these should function that's included in the help, but at least it's an improvement.
