HT3529 Do you need credit to send an imessage

I you have no credit on your iphone 5, will you still be able to send an imessage?
Thank you

iMessages do not have text messaging fees, no.
Be sure to turn of "Send as SMS" in Settings however. If your 3G or internet access drops out, it'll often try to send as an SMS instead. Doing the aforementioned will prevent this.

  • I'm having trouble with my imessage activation do i need credit

    I'm having trouble with my imessage activation do i need credit

    What do you mean do you need credit?
    iMessage and FaceTime activation use hidden SMS messages directed to Apple's activation servers in the UK. If you are not using a supported carrier, or if your carrier is not aware that you have an iPhone, the messages may not be able to pass properly.
    What country are you in and what carrier are you using?

  • How do you disassociate a phone number from iMessage without disabling iMessage completely

    Hi there. I will soon be selling my current iPhone for another phone and want to remove the association between the phone number and iMessage so my girlfriend will send SMS messages to my phone from her iPhone instead of iMessages. Is it as simple as turning iMessage off in iCloud settings or does it go a bit deeper than that? I have seen a few stories on the forums of iMessages still being sent to sold or broken phones and don't want this to happen to mine.
    Cheers in advance.

    All you need to do is turn iMessage off in settings.  Also be sure to turn FaceTime off and delete your iCloud account in Settings>iCloud.    (Note: deleting the iCloud account only deletes it from the phone, not from iCloud.)
    Be sure to create a new backup before selling it.  To be save, create a backup both in iCloud and on your computer using iTunes (by clicking on Back Up Now on the Summary tab of your iTunes sync settings).  Then erase the phone by going to Settings>General>Reset>Erase All Content and Settings, or restore it as a new iPhone.

  • When I send an iMessage from my iPhone to another iPhone that is currently not on WiFi, does my message show up as blue or green?

    When I send an iMessage from my iPhone to another iPhone that is currently not on WiFi and using a cell connection, does my message show up as blue or green?

    Your message on your screen shows up blue if sent as iMessage or green if sent as regular text.  If not connected to wi-fi or cellular data, iMessage isn't available to/from.  Both of you need a data connection for iMessage to work.
    But your message on the recipient's screen will show up white.

  • When I send an Imessage the receiving party sees my apple id / email instead of my name.

    Hello,
    When I send an Imessage the receiving party sees my apple id / email (is the same in my case)  instead of my name from their contacts. This worked fine but sudenly it has changest. People reply with 'who are you'. When they send an Imessage to me from an old conversation witch used to work with Imessage it is send as SMS.
    I have tried all settings under settings > messages.
    I read on this communitie other people have the same problem but no one seems to have the solution.
    Anyone?
    Thanks.

    I found the solution. At work we compared settings and several people had this same issue....
    The solution is:
    Settings > messages > receive on > Use Apple Id for iMessage - needs to be switched off.
    Strange thing i don't know how ik got switched on....
    But it is solved.

  • I called apple tech support cause my iphone 5 charger just stopped working. Aplle tech support said they can send me a new charger but why do they need credit card information if i have only had the the charger for 2 months and i have 1 year warranty?

    I called apple support because my iphone 5 charger stopped working and they said they would send me a new charger but why do they need credit card information if every apple product has 1 year warranty?

    Hi CryyCorr33
    Sound like they did what is called an express replacment. What apple does is they put a hold on your Credit Card for the amount of the cord because they are sending you the cord first. Then, once you receive the new cord in about 2-3 days, you'll put the defective cord in the box and ship it back out and when they receieve the defective one, they'll be able to remove that hold from you card.
    I believe the reason behind the hold on your card is incase you don't return your defective one to them so they can find out the cause of the issue.
    An Apple Retail Store could swap them out for you in store incase you happen to be near one. This requires no hold.
    Hope this helps

  • HT201303 If item is free why do you need a **** credit card!! Tired of items saying free if you are charging me refund my **** funs I will post on all networks

    I tried to download a free game and music app that are free then it pop up you need a **** credit card what the **** for.. Tired of being nickel and dimmed by company so how about fixing this ****!!! Very upset

    If the game is shown as "free" in the App Store, it is completely free to download, but many apps have "in-app purchases" intended to separate you from your money.
    The solution is simple - don't use those apps. Uninstall them and write a review in the App Store explaining their underhandedness.
    To disable "in-app purchases" go to Settings > General > Restrictions and turn "In-App Purchases" off. Don't forget your Restrictions passcode.

    What about the incredable lag time from clicking on a program to the time it opens (or the time till the loading screen starts)? I wish I could record it and play it so I could see if thats normal from other members... the icon just sitting there for over 35 second (I just counted 36 till the loading screen popped up) at first I thought it was me not clicking hard enought cuz the mouse button I have is real stiff (any ideas on that?) but no it takes that long just to get to the app loading screen... this happens every time same amount of time with the 3 programs I use the most, prolly more but I know for a fact world of warcraft, uTorrent, and Google Chrome. I would just chalk it up to slow hardware but they load real quick in windows 7 and once this bad spot is loaded the program runs so fast and nice afterword. Maybe some tweeks? I wonder if this would happen in Snow?
    The coment "few outdated programs" Ive seen alot its not just a few its a lot and since games are not Apple's strong point I would think they would want to keep as many as they could...
    An example of the rants you will see from a lot here. Don't be put off as these problems are generally user specific, and these same old comments come out after the release of every OSX I can remember. When Lion is upgraded  to the next OSX you can gaurentee these forums will be full of people screaming about how great Lion was. Happened with Tiger, Leopard and Snow Leopard.
    So come to think of it you may be better off Googling sites that give you unbiased views on Lion, rather than expect any positive comments here. For every one complaint there are probably 100,000 people with no issues.
    Cheers

  • HT1918 Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?

    Why do you need my credit card information when I purchase songs from an already purchased Itunes gift card?  If I cannot purchase goods with the prepuchased gift cards, then the card is useless and I want my money back.

    We are fellow users here on these user-to-user forums, you're not talking to iTunes Support nor Apple.
    Just because you are being asked to enter your credit card details doesn't mean that it will be charged for your purchases.
    Is it a newly created account ? If it is then unless you use the instructions on this page when creating an account then credit card details will need to be entered before the account can be used in the store : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

  • Do you need a credit card to buy the sketchbook proor can you use itunes cards?

    do you need a credit card to buy the sketchbook pro or can you use itunes cards?

    Hi..
    It might depend on the tax rate for your location.
    If you are in the U.S. >  http://www.bankrate.com/finance/taxes/check-taxes-in-your-state.aspx
    If taxes or fees are applied to the $59.99, I doubt that $60.12 will cover it. You may need to purchase another iTunes gift card which you can redeem to increase the funds available.
    it is 59.99 dollers and i have 60.12 and it goes to the billing part
    If there are not funds available you will see a dialog asking you to edit your payment information. When there are not sufficient funds, the difference between the purchase amount and funds available is deducted from a credit or debit card account. If you don't want to have a credit or debit card then purchase another iTunes gift card.

  • Do you need a credit card to buy OS X Mountian Lion

    i have 20$ on my itunes account and i keep trying to download mountion lion but but i get the same mesege insunificint funds so what do i do. PLEASE HELP!

    No, you do NOT need a credit card to buy Mountain Lion. It is telling you that you have insufficient funds, because Apple still charges tax in their online store. You need to have one or two extra dollars in credit on your account(depending on your local tax) in order to buy ML.
