  • Cant receive texts on new samsung as all texts are going through to ipad. I cannot disable from my previous iphone as its completely unusable

    Please help! I changed to samsung today and all of my texts are going through to my ipad, if I turn off icloud, imessage and facetime on the ipad I just do not receive the texts fullstop!  I dont have access to my old phone (iphone 5) as I smashed the screen and completely ruined the phone, how do I stop this from happening?

    Contact Applecare, and ask them to assist you in turning off iMessage.  After they remove your iMessage registration from their system, SIGN OUT of all other devices that you have that use iMessage.  After you have signed out on All the devices, you can sign back in using your Apple ID.  Your phone number should no longer be used for imessage.
    AppleCare phone number: (800)-694-7466

  • Texts are going through twice. How can I fix this?

    Hello I am getting complaints that my texts are going through to people twice. How can I fix this? I do not get messages twice, only my outgoing (although it only shows once on my phone)

    Contact your carrier.
    If being done by your iPhone, the outgoing messages would be shown twice on your iPhone.

  • When I text one person, It goes to another person...however, the name that I'm trying to text shows the number i'm trying to text. Also, my texts are sent through my email...why?

    When I text one person, It goes to another person...however, the name that I'm trying to text shows the number i'm trying to text. Also, my texts are sent through my email...why? The text preview shows up as the person I did NOT want to text, but when I open it, it shows the person I DID want to text.

    sms's are charged by the sms internet data is charged by megabyte
    so apple make their message system so sms's sendt while connected to the internet were
    sendt by email to the contact rather then by the more expensive sms option

  • Texts are coming through as email addresses

    twice when ive  texted a coworker from my cell phone and they show me the message it says that the sender of the text is my personal gmail account NOT my phone number like it should be why the **** is it doing this?

    If you go into Settings - Messages - send / receive
    Your phone number is usually in gray and cannot be changed \
    But you should be able to tap on the email and unselect it
    What happens if you try? Any error message?
    And have you tried to reset your phone and try again?
    Thanks

  • Group messages are going through as texts instead of imessage

    Usually when me and my friends have a group message it's fine, it's all going through iMessage and I've never had a problem but yesterday my messages were failing to send and today it says at the top 'Outgoing' instead of 'Group' like it usually does and also my messages are going through as a text not an iMessage but only on the group message? Help

    If you have others that are receiving your imessaging  but not the group you are attempting to send to then do this:
    Click on your text messaging area using imessaging enabled and then type a message to yourself. Do this test to verify that your imessaging apple server is working properly. IF you get the messsage back to you in BLUE this indicates to you that both the outgoing and incoming text messaging is working as imessaging. With this piece of information verified that will indicate there are connectivity issues with individuals or all that are a part of the group you are attempting to contact. Please do not conclude that at a point in time this communication worked via imessaging that there may be some in the group that are now having conectiviity issues of their own.
    Good luck, Friend.

  • TS2755 Receiving "Message Send Failure" notification, but messages are going through?

    For the past few days, I have been receiving a "Message Send Failure" after every iMessage that I send. The messages are going through, but I still receive the notification every time. I have restarted my phone, signed out of and back into iMessage, and reset my network settings. Nothing seems to be working. Anyone have a solution? I'm having the same problem on my iPad, which leads me to believe it's a problem with iMessage at large as opposed to a device problem. Thanks!

  • Texts not going through to only one number

    I tried looking at the other answers but none of them worked. I have a Env3 and the person i'm trying to send messages to has verizon also and ive been texting him before with no problem. My number isnt blocked or anything like that. I tried the reprogramming things and taking the battery out but my messages still wont go through. They just are still sending and not received. Sometimes they went through hours after but now theyre not going through at all. Thanks for the help

    I'm having the same issue on my Blackberry 9330.  Seems to happen to 1 or 2 specific numbers.  I cannot send a new message or reply to a message sent to me from that number. Receiving messages works fine. The number i'm sending to is using Verizon Wireless as well.  I have reprogrammed and removed the battery,
    Help!!

  • My emails are going through on my computer but not on my iPhone 5. Please HELP!

    My emails are going through on my computer but not on my iPhone 5. Please HELP!

    Go to Settings>Mail, Contacts, Calendars; select the account in question and check your settings. There are two separate settings for mail, incoming mail server for receiving mail, and SMTP for sending mail.
    It could be that the mail process is stuck. Before doing as I said above, double-tap the home button to open the multi-tasking list. Locate the mail app and swipe upwards on the app thumbnail to force closed. Then do a reset on the phone, holding the sleep/wake and home buttons together until you see the Apple logo and then release. After the phone reboots, then open the mail app and see if you receive your mail. If you receive an error message, make note of it and come back.

  • HT1349 When I send a text, it goes through as "text message" instead of an "imessage" and the person has an iphone. What can be the cause of this problem?

    When I send a text, it goes through as a "text message" instead of an "imessage" and the person I am texting has an iPhone. what could be the cause of this problem?

    It's not enough for the other person to just have an iPhone. They must be on iOS 5, have iMessage enabled and connected to the Internet.

  • HT201269 My wife switched from an iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5.  Everything transferred over and service is on the new phone.  However, texts are going to her old phone still.  Any idea what the problem is?

    My wife switched from an iPhone 4 to an iPhone 5.  Everything transferred over and service is on the new phone.  However, texts are going to her old phone still.  Any idea what the problem is?

    As long as iMessage is enabled and the old phone is connected to a WiFi access point, it will continue to receive iMessage texts. It won't receive non-iMessage texts nor will it receive any calls.

    "iMessage allows users to send texts, photos, videos, contact information, and group messages over Wi-Fi or 3G to other iOS 5 users, thus providing an alternative to standard SMS messaging for all users with devices running iOS 5."
    This is what it is and what it does. You both have to have iOS 5 installed on your supported device. If that's not what your setup is, then that's your answer.

    Restart your phone by holding the power and home button until the Apple logo appears. If that does not solve the issue contact your cell provider so they can resolve the issue.
