How to register with imessage?

iMessage is not accepting any iphone number and email saying that not registered with imessage. How can i register my contacts with imessage?

As long as you have activated your imessage you can start sending and recieving imessages from any IOS 5 running iphone, ipad, ipod, or any idevice that supports it. And as "bobbyco57" has already told you, your contacts have to have activated the imessage just like you did.

It takes two to tango, maybe it's your recipient that has weak Internet/Cellular connections.

If they have a Mac or Apple iDevice, call them or email them and tell them to activate iMessage.

Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:

SMS in Yosemite messages not working. "Not registered with iMessage"

Just updated today to Yosemite. Macbook Pro 2013 (current retail model) with upgraded RAM and flash storage. iPhone 6 running 8.0.2 with recent back up to iCloud.
When sending iMessages to my normal iMessage contacts, everything is ok. This update should also allow for continuity with SMS, that they show up as Messages in the same application. I cannot get any messages which are not iMessages to send out. Each time I attempt this, I get the error "User is not registered with iMessage." Which, yes, duh. That's the point. I've sent and received SMS messages on my phone with out error, but still have not been able to initiate or respond on my Mac with Messages. My contact card only has the same phone number which is registered to the same iCloud account for both the phone and the Mac.
I've restarted the phone and logged in and out of iMessage in hopes of a refresh. I'm out of ideas as to how to get them to sync up, or whatever it is they need to do.
Is there a step that I am missing? It should, in theory, just work, but I can't find any messages on this. Any guesses?
Thanks!

Hi,
It seems that some people are experiencing issues with Logging in fully to the iMessages Servers from their Mac.
There is one Error Messages that is seen that is known to be very similar.
This Error can only be fixed by Contacting Support.
What is does prove though is the The Apple ID in use can be rejected on a Device by device basis, i.e. it will work on a iOS device or even another Mac but not on one particular one.
Sometimes deleting the Keychain item for the iMessages Login can help (then Restarting the app)
It is called IDS: yourApple ID- Auth Token
If deleting this does not work try repairing the Keychain.
After that I would contact Apple Support. You may have to speak to a Level 2 person as Level 1 people try to fit everyone into Software or hardware issues and charge for Out of time Apple Care.
Fixing and Apple ID/Account is free.

The iPad is not capable of sending an SMS message so texts, pictures, etc., must go through iMessage. The destination device must be registered with the Apple servers by turning on iMessage. Therefore, the user with the iPhone must enable it for iMessage.

Hi,
There have been no updates recently.
You would also know if the computer had stopped for an Update.
On the Mac in the Contacts App in the Contacts Menu > Accounts is it shown to be using iCloud to Sync the info between all devices ?

HT4623 Why my phone number is not registered with iMessage?

Hi Mark, I have 2 iphone but about Why my phone number is not registered with iMessage? I try on/off my iphone but i didn't sucessfull

Turn imsg off/on.
If that doesn't work, I would than backup your data (considering the troubleshooting steps already listed) and "Erase all content and settings" on the device and setup as a new iphone and test imsg out in factory default. Try to activate your phone in factory default. If it shows your number / activates, there may be something in your current settings preventing imsg from operating / activating. If it does not activate, get in touch with carrier.

IOS 5: regular messages are not sent if one recepient is registered with iMessage

There is a bug in iOS 5: SMS messages are not sent if one receipients mobile number is registered with iMessages.
This is confirmed by the developer of the team sms app: if you send a message to a number of receipients and one of the recepients mobile numbers, the message is sent do, is registered with iMessage, then none of the recipients will receive the message.
Does anyone know a work around until Apple comes up with a bugfix?
Regards, Til

I am not sure about the details of your case, but I can confirm that a message does send to multiple recipients even if one of this has iMessage. I recently sent a message to two people, one with a BB and one with an iPhone 4 (iOS 5 and iMessage working). Because of the difference, it resorted to the least common denominator and sent the message as a standard text to both people. I was replied to by both parties. Based on your description I can confirm that your detail is not the case.
Have you checked through the settings in Messages? Do you have a texting plan associated with your account? I am sorry if these questions seem stupid, but they are worth asking to verify.
I hope this helps!

Phone numbers are not registered with iMessage

Hey all.
I've installed Mavericks a few days ago .
I've synced my contacts with iCloud to my macbook air and noticed that I can send iMessage to email adresses only, not phone numbers. while on my iphone it is possible to send iMessage to any number (if it's iphone of course).
if I type the name of the contact or his phone number - it turns red and says "contact is not registered with iMessage".. Clearly they are, because i can send them iMessages through my iPhone.
What am I missing ? Is there any way to fix it ?
Thanks in advance,
Lord021
