HT3529 My iPhone wont let me send text message to numbers with different area code how do I fix this?

My iPhone wont let me send text messages to numbers with a different area code. How do I fix this so I can send texts to these numbers?

If it shows up in iTunes and you can sync the phone, could be that the docking port is damaged.
You should get it serviced or looked at by visiting an Apple Store or contacting Apple:

  • My iphone 5 wont let me update apps keeps popping up with old apple id how do i fix this

    my iphone 5 wont let me update apps keeps popping up with old apple id how do i fix this??

    All apps downloaded/purchased are tied to the apple ID used to download/purchase them.
    If you change your Apple ID and do not wish to use the old apple ID and password to update them, you have to delete them and redownload or buy them under the new apple ID.

  • My iPod wont let me open the App Store without crashing. Anyone know how I can fix this???

    Does anyone know how to fix this?

    If not successful:
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

  • Some emails have the text message that belongs in another email. How can I fix this?

    The message in some emails belongs in another. The "from" and "subject line" does not match what is in the message area. This has only happened since the last upgrade. I haven't changed any of the settings in my Thunderbird email.

    Right click the problem folder and select Properties. Then Repair Folder.

    Read this article on maintaining your email folders to help prevent this in the future.

    From a Kappy  post
    The Three Best Alternatives for Security Questions and Rescue Mail
       1. Use Apple's Express Lane.
    Go to https://expresslane.apple.com ; click 'See all products and services' at the
    bottom of the page. In the next page click 'More Products and Services, then
    'Apple ID'. In the next page select 'Other Apple ID Topics' then 'Forgotten Apple
    ID security questions' and click 'Continue'. Please be patient waiting for the return
    phone call. It will come in time depending on how heavily the servers are being hit.
    2.  Call Apple Support in your country: Customer Service: Contact Apple support.
    3.  Rescue email address and how to reset Apple ID security questions.
    A substitute for using the security questions is to use 2-step verification:

  • My iPhone won't let me send text messages!

    My iphone will not let me send text messages but i can do everything else from calling to reciving as well as accessing the internet.
    I am able to use another sim card in the phone and it work's perfectly. i do not know what else i can do, i have called apple and my service provider, i have reset my network settings and restored it on the ipod. please help!

    Hi! I know this is much later but if anyone else has this problem I think I've found the solution, the problem is the obvious SIM Card, you may need to activate your sim card on your carriers website! I am with Orange EE and that's the verdict for me! Hope this helps P.S. I've had the same problem x

  • New iPad3 and it's not letting me send text messages.....the "send" button is not high lighted....

    New iPad3 and it's not letting me send text messages.....the "send" button is not high lighted....

    I've already tried everything listed in these links.
    I've also resync'd email accounts via iTunes between my Air and iPad3.
    Messaging works OK on all my other devices using the same account settings.
    Problem started around May25th.
    (and yes, I already posted back then under a different ID with no resolution).
    There has to be a simple solution.
    I'm presuming some sort of conflict with iCloud, but not sure.
    Any other ideas?

  • When I create a text message from my contact on my iphone 5, the contacts mobile number appears and not there name.  But when they respond to my text, is shows up as a new text message with there name.  How do I fix this?

    When I create a text message from my contact on my iphone 5, the contacts mobile number appears and not there name.  But when they respond to my text, is shows up as a new text message with there name.  How do I fix this?

    Double click the home button and swipe up the messages app to stop it, then open the app again. This pretty much completely stops the process and freshly opens it again, resolving problems at times. I have had this happen before as well on my iPad, I get a banner, check messages, and nothing new is there.
    If that doesn't work, close the app like suggested above, but then restart the phone by holding down the home and lock button for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears.
