HT1688 Iphone 4s Can Send Text, but can't call.

I have one specific number where I can send a text message but can't call the number. I dial the number and it immediately drops or cancels. Doesn't even get to a ring tone. The bad thing is its my bosses number..All other numbers work fine. This person can call me just fine, and other iphones have no problem.

Is this a recent development? I don't know where you are, but there was a major fiber cut in N.E. Ohio today that has been disrupting Internet connectivity, the 911 system throughout the State, and both digital and analog landline services throughout N.E. Ohio and beyond.

  • HT1688 Can anyone tell me why i might not be receiving texts any more on my i-phone.  I can send texts, but cannot receive?

    Can anyone tell me why i am not able to receive texts anymore on my i-phone?  I can send texts, and can receive texts on my i-pad, but they don't come through on my phone?

    Are you referring to a regular SMS text, or an iMessage. The solution is different based on what it actually is that you are not receiving. Are these from non-iOS devices (SMS) or iOS devices (iMessage)?

  • I was sending text messages this morning but all of a sudden I stopped receiving them.  I have found out that I can send them but can't receive them.  Can anyone help me?

    I was sending text messages this morning but all of a sudden I stopped receiving them.  I have found out that I can send them but can't receive them on my mac book or on my wifes mac book, but can receive my messages on the iphone!!!   Can anyone help me?

    If you're referring to iMessages, then the problem is that Apple is having server issues. If the problems your having are with standard SMS, post back with further details.

  • I have been having trouble getting my email on my iPad. It started when I brought it to the US on vacation (I live in London and my email provider is Virgin Media). It worked once since I returned, but that is it. I can send emails, but can't get them

    I have been having trouble getting my email on my iPad2.
    It started when I brought it to the US on vacation (I live in London and my email provider is Virgin Media). It worked once since I returned, but that is it.
    I can send emails, but can't get them.
    Any ideas, people?

    Hi Kharels
    Just posted this reply to 2 others with same sort of question:
    I have the same issue as i have my own email address and only want to use.
    There are two ways around this annoying problem. The first is to set up your own domain email account alongside your iCloud one, and when you go to send each email tap on From and you get a choice of emails addresses to reply from... ie your own domain or the iCloud one.  This is tedious though.
    The other is to set up your iCloud email as normal, then create a new one altogether. Choose 'Other' when creating this new account. Then put for the incoming server mail.me.com, along with your user name and password. For the outgoing server put the server you want to use - ie your own domain one. This is therefore a hybrid account and does work.
    Now switch off the email for iCloud (leaving on Calendar, Address Book etc). Switch on the email for your hybrid account (which of course is iCloud incoming as well).
    Providing you have directed your own domain email address to your me.com one, you will find the iPhone should behave itself and you can use the folders etc and these will synch with your Mac ok.
    Hope this work for you - let us know.

    Here is what I did to resolve the problem:
    In Mail/preferences/accounts/account information/ and at the bottom of the box there is a toggle arrow up and down to edit the outgoing mail server, check the box "use only this server" and  hit this toggle button and select "edit SMTP Server List" at the very bottom of the email names.
    Select Advanced tab.  Correct and/or add usernames and passwords as needed for each email account.  Be sure to select OK each time to get the passwords to hold!  Some changes don't seem to hold unless you click OK before you move on.
    To test:       Window/activity (a little windows will pop up showing activity bars)   and then "get mail" button.  This should show any problems
    Another test:  window/connection doctor
    This shouldl fix both pop and imap.  so far it worked on yahoo, mobile me, gmail, hotmail, and others.  Of course, you will need to know the incoming and outgoing mail server info, user name, and passwords.
    Too bad we have to go though hoops to use an email program that used to work well.  Worse yet, many may not know for days that their email isn't working.
    This is easy method of setting up your email accounts but may not allow enough detail to make the mail accounts function properly in Mail 5.0:
    system preferences/internet and wireless/mail, contacts, calendars/ add account

  • Exchange server 2010 can send email but can't receive email

    Hi, I currently built up the exchange server 2010 within Windows 2008 server R2..I followed the youtube exchange server guide and now I am able to receive and send email within the account I created .. I can send email to hotmail or gmail account that I
    have.  But I can't receive the emails from those.  And I have a free domain service from twbbs.org  My FQDN is: al7283.twbbs.org . and I 've setup the MX records on this even though I don't know if they are correct configuration. I've open up
    the ports that needed. I also created the MX records and A records within DNS server .. can anyone guide me and tell me what should I configure for this troublesome problem??

    ON your receive connector check the security.
    in console
    1) server config
    2) hub transport
    3) receive connectors (Default <server name>) this should be listning on port 25
    4) right click and properties
    5) select permission group tab
    6) Anonymous needs to be checked otherwise you will only receive email from servers that have a username/password on your email server. 
    7) Restart transport service and try again.
    Your DNS config looks over complicated create a MX record  10 called Mail.al7283.twbbs.org
    point to al7283.twbbs.org
    You don't need mail.al7283.twbbs.org "A record" or a MX pointing to 122.116.90.148, it's the same as the other MX record if one is down they both will be.

  • 7520 can send faxes but can not receive faxes

    We just installed the 7520 and everything seems to work fine except receiving faxes. 
    We can send faxes just fine, however the strange thing is when I try to call the fax number from a phone it acts like its dead, you never hear it ring or anything then it just disconnects. If I switch the phone cord to the Ext connection in the back of the device and then call the number I can hear it ringing on the calling phone and on the 7520 device.  The display lights up because there is an incoming call and shows that auto answer is on, but when it answers we never hear the normal fax type tones and it never connects.
    The phone is being supplied by Time Warner Cable and it plugs into the cable modem. We called Time Warner and they told us that the line for the fax is an analog line but I have no idea how to check that or prove that.
    I can't figure out why it will send faxes with no problem but seems like its a dead line when trying to receive a fax.
    Any thoughts?
    This question was solved.
    View Solution.

    With the printer's phone cord connected to the wall jack and the "1-Line" {nothing plugged into the 2-Ext} port, try running the Fax Test.  See Step 5.  Does everything pass?
    Make sure the Distinctive Ring option is set for All Rings unless you have a distinctive ring set up with your phone service provider.
    If you use a filter for your telephone, try using a filter for the printer.

  • All of a sudden I can not receive text messages on my MOTOX. Does anyone know how to solve this problem. I can send them, but can't receive them.

    My MOTO X was working fine, then all of a sudden, I can not receive text messages. I have checked the settings and they look correct to me, and I have done everything the web site recommends, except wiping the phone and starting over, to try and fix it. Has anyone else had this issue, and how did you resolve it?
    Thanks so much.

        That's strange that your Moto X wont receive any text. Thank you for trouble shooting the issue. Let's see what's going on! Does your device have any physical or liquid damage? Does anyone else have an issue with calling or texting? What zip code are you in?
