The first thing you should do is contact your carrier and make sure that your account is properly provisioned to send text messages.

  • TS2755 I cannot send text messages form my 4S iphone to other cell phones.

    I cannot send text messages to other cell phones.  Only iPhones accept the messages.

    check to see if you have SMS turned on in the message settings.
    IF that doesn't help contact your phone carrier as they handle messaging and see if they can help resolve the issue.

  • Shortcuts stopped working for text messages after installing iOS 6. How do I fix this?

    Also emoji does not show up either. I have even restarted my phone. Reinstalled the App. Restarted my phone again

    on the pad, in settings, messages, turn it off.  alternately, identify the pad, in that same setting, with a different incoming 'receive at ' address, and delete the one that is already there, (that is most likely the same as what you have set on your phone)  I have a different receive at address on different devices for that same reason.

  • I just purchased a note 3.  Everything works well except I cannot send text messages.  I can receive them, but I get an error message when I try to send them

    Can anyone tell me why I cannot send text messages on my note 3?   I can receive them, but when I attempt to send them I get an error message unable to send . . .  It's a brand new phone.

        Congratulations on your new phone, Nonaleigh.
    We would love to get to the bottom of your message mystery.
    I'm guessing you are getting the error for all messages you attempt to send, is that correct?
    What type of phone did you upgrade from? We ask because if you have switched from an Apple device (e.g., iPhone) to a non-Apple device (e.g., Android, Blackberry, etc.) and previously used the iMessage service, you may experience issues sending/receiving SMS/MMS messages with Apple device users. You need to deactivate the iMessage service within your Apple account to restore normal SMS/MMS functionality.

  • Cannot send text messages

    HI
    Starting 10 days ago, I cannot send text messages. i can still receive text messages.
    I tested my phone with a colleague who has an iphone. He receives a record that I am texting him but the message is null. I also texted a family member on her Android phone and she gets nothing.
    Here's what I have done:
    1. I did a hard reset twice. I removed the battery and even the SIM card in the process.
    2. Soft reset once using the Alt, **bleep**, Del key.
    3. Checked if my BB had the latest sotfware. It did It currently has OS 6 with bundle 2647.
    4. Wind Mobile Canada has reset my PIN
    5. I re-registered my phone as guided by the Wind Mobile tech support. I got an email from BB saying "Your handheld has been registered with the wireless network".
    What else could I try?
    Thanks

    Click on TEXT MESSAGES icon.
    Go to BB Menu and Click OPTIONS
    Sroll down to "Data Coding"
    Choose "7 bit"

  • Cannot send text messages to Verizon customers

    Hi
    I cannot send text messages to other verizon customers but can send to non vz. This has been happening since last night. Is there an update I need to perform? I have an iPhone 6 plus. Thanks

    Hi
    Thank you for your message. It seems like it is certain Verizon iPhone users. I did not download any new apps or perform any software updates on my iPhone. The ppl I could send text messages to were non VZ non iPhone users. Today I can only send to some iPhone users. They also had error messages sending text messages to me but not to my daughters iPhone (we r on a VZ family plan). Do I need to perform an update like *228 or something like that? Thank you!

  • N73 - Cannot send text messages/Multimedia key not...

    Sent my N73 into the shop to be fixed, and it came back with 2 problems. I cannot send text messages at all. I have heard that this can be solved with the sms accelerator, but I can find NO download link for the N73. I found another one and installed it onto my phone (version 1.0(0)) but the problem persists. ANy ideas or links to where the sms accelerator is for the N73?
    The 2nd problem is the multimedia key is no longer programmable. I press the multimedia key, then select the down arrow (configure) I scroll down to any of the options right, left, top, center, bottom. When I press the center joystick I just am taken back to the multimedia screen. I am not given any choices to reprogram the keys....any ideas there???
    Thanks for the help!

    Solved!

    Often it's just a case of resetting the phone after it comes back from repairs if they've upgraded or simply reflashed the firmware for you.
    Note that these operations will wipe your phone's internal memory so do a backup before proceeding.
    First option: revert to factory defaults. Dial *#7780#.
    Second option: soft reset. Dial *#7370#.
    Third option: hard reset. Switch the phone off and do the following.
    1) Press and hold the green "call", "3" and "*" buttons.
    2) With those buttons pressed down, switch the phone on.
    3) Keep pressing those 3 buttons and only release them once the phone shows signs of life such as the Nokia "hands" logo or the language selection screen.

  • HT201263 My IPhone4 won't send text message to anyone.

    My Iphone won't send text message to anyone. It always say fail and give me a red sign. I already reset it and turn it of and back on. It won't give me a number to choose from and will give me my email account. I call sprint and they say that my IPhone4 is a detective phone/don't work. I was wondering if anyone knew how to fix it?
    It always say waiting for activation and what is SIM
    Everything on my IPhone4 work but my message.

    This is probably a carrier issue; have you talked to Sprint about this problem? Your complaint was truncated, so it appears to say a "conversation open" at the end. If this is the case then the device is sending text messages, and the other party is receiving them. If this is occurring then it sounds like a problem with the receiving party or carrier.

  • Cannot send text message or iMessage?

    I recently upgraded to iOS7 (like everyone else) and today cannot send text messages or iMessage. I can make phone calls and use other internet services. Any ideas?

        Hi shelmig1!
    Sorry to learn of any issues since upgrading to iOS7. Let's try some troubleshooting! Do you find that this issue is only for other iPhone users, or does it happen with all messages? Are you able to receive messages? Please reset your network settings: Settings/General/Reset/Reset Network Settings. Keep us posted on the results, thanks!

  • Cannot receive text messages after switch from iphone

    After more than 2 years on an Android, my family convinced me to try an iPhone. After one week, I decided to return my iPhone and go back to Android. Now I cannot receive text messages from anyone using an iPhone. It thinks I'm still using iMessage.
    I have already talked with Verizon customer service and unregistered my number from both Messages and FaceTime via my computer. Please help! This is extremely frustrating!

        Appreciate the update plurrykid,
    Knowing you are starting to receive them is good, but certainly we want you to receive all of them, not just random ones.  I know it’s important to get them up and running as soon as possible. It will usually take Apple 24-48 hours to un-register you completely; if it has not been fully done, what you can try is resetting your Apple ID  password here http://bit.ly/1kwc2va . Since  you will be changing your password and the original device which still has iMessages on, will not be aware of the new password for them, it will revert to text messages. Let us know how it goes.

    Looks like itunes was still trying to communicate with my iphone and got confused when it couldnt find it.    Found this in another post and it worked great.
    Solution:
    Make sure you are not connected to the internet and then open itunes. Sync your phone and then enable the internet again. Then stay connected to the internet and close your itunes and reopen it. Bam problem solved.
