You can only use iMessage by turning on in settings, sign up with your email.
You can only text other Apple users that also turn on iMessage. You must use their email unless they have an iPhone.
You can't text to non apple devices.

What the crap is wrong with ios7 iMessage. My 4 worked great! Now I have to double tap and resend every message as a text message! Except to the only iPhone I know that hasn't been updated to 7. Please help me :) if possible!
I apologize for my poor choice of words to express my feelings. I do appreciate any help I can get on this. And I apologize if I offended anyone :) I do love my Mac equipment, I have and iMac, iPad, Apple TV and an iPhone. This is the first issue with the iPhone so I should be a little more kind and patient, thanks for keeping me in check :)

If some can help me?? My mac mail will not close when iam finished with it, or will it open when i awake my computer is there an update i need to do??
As the message comes from AVG yo will need to read about AVG to stop those alerts.
If you think there is a genuine problem with firefox
* see [[high memory usage]] <-- clickable link -- <br/> that contains some tips and information about memory usage
* go to ''about:memory'' by keying that into the location bar <br/> the report that is generated may be of help - it gives tooltip info on mouseover of items, and has a button that tries to reduce memory usage -

Why do text messages from my iPad appear to some people as if they came from my email address instead of my phone number? This does not happen when I send text messages from my iPhone.
You need to link your iPhone number to Messages - and Facetime if you use it. For Messages go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive at>You can be reached by iMessage at. If your phone number is showing there, select it as your Contact address. If it doesn't appear in there, take a look at the end of this article for help.

How can I access my iPhone text messages on my iPad?
My friends use their iPads to receive their text messages from their iPhones. I have an iPhone 5 and would like to be able to access them too.
The only way to access messages on your iPad is if the sender is also using iMessage. So your friends aren't receiving typical SMS text message on their iPads, but rather iMessage messages. The easiest way to tell these apart is that SMS messages will appear green and iMessages will appear blue in your conversation thread.
To enable messages on your iPad, go to settings and scroll down to "iMessage" to sign into your account and get it all setup -
How do I remove the text message from my iPad
Someone please help, I am a teacher and I use an iPad in my classroom. I just purchased my first iPhone, but somehow, some icons from my phone appear on my iPad. The main one that worries me is my text messaging. I need to remove the text messaging from my iPad.
Hi, Srta. Sunshine.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
I would recommend signing out of iMessage or turning this feature off on your iPad. You can sign out of iMessage by selecting Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > Select Your Apple ID > Sign Out. Or you can turn off iMessage by selecting Settings > Messages and turn iMessage off.

I want to send messages using my iPad Air but not as iMessages
I Don't want to use iMessages but do want to be able to send messages (they can stay green) because I sometimes want to do the message but not to another apple user. I am unable to send any messages using the text bubble icon, or receive them to look back at them, except on my phone. Do I need to sync those somehow or changes settings. I have disabled "iMessage" in my settings! I could do this for a while but have had several changes since then trying to get my iPad to be what I need it for.
