Why can't I send group text messages on my Iphone 3GS any longer?
I have been sending and receiving group text messages on my iphone 3GS for awhile and all of a sudden I am receiving "Message Send Failure" error messages when I try to send a group message. I think I still get group messages but you can no longer see that it is a group message and who the group members are. I turned the Group setting off and then back on in Settings and turned the phone off and back on with no improvement.

Hello, we have a Mac and an ipad, the Mac is working and wifi is on and the ipad's wifi is on too, but Ipad Safari can not open the page because it could not connect to the server, does any one know that?
Some things to try first:
1. Turn Off your iPad. Then turn Off (disconnect power cord for 30 seconds or longer) the wireless router & then back On. Now boot your iPad. Hopefully it will see the WiFi.
2. Go to Settings>Wi-Fi and turn Off. Then while at Settings>Wi-Fi, turn back On and chose a Network.
3. Change the channel on your wireless router (Auto or Channel 6 is best). Instructions at http://macintoshhowto.com/advanced/how-to-get-a-good-range-on-your-wireless-netw ork.html
4. Go into your router security settings and change from WEP to WPA with AES.
5. Renew IP Address: (especially if you are drooping internet connection)
• Launch Settings app
• Tap on Wi-Fi
• Tap on the blue arrow of the Wi-Fi network that you connect to from the list
• In the window that opens, tap on the Renew Lease button

Note - When troubleshooting wifi connection problems, don't hold your iPad by hand. There have been a few reports that holding the iPad by hand, seems to attenuate the wifi signal.
Some Wi-Fi losses may stem from a problematic interaction between Wi-Fi and cellular data connections. Numerous users have found that turning off Cellular Data in Settings gets their Wi-Fi working again.
You may have many apps open which can possibly cause the slowdown and possibly the loss of wifi. In iOS 4-6 double tap your Home button & at the bottom of the screen you will see the icons of all open apps. Close those you are not using by pressing on an icon until all icons wiggle - then tap the minus sign. For iOS 7 users, there’s an easy way to see which apps are open in order to close them. By double-tapping the home button on your iPhone or iPad, the new multitasking feature in iOS 7 shows full page previews of all your open apps. Simply scroll horizontally to see all your apps, and close the apps with a simple flick towards the top of the screen.
Wi-Fi or Bluetooth settings grayed out or dim

Why can't I send emails after iOS5 upgrade of iPhone 3GS?
Having upgraded to iOS5, my iPhone 3GS will receive but will no longer send emails. The error message says that it cannot send mail because the recipient [named] was rejected by the server. This happens whether I am trying to reply to an incoming message or create one afresh. Help please.
If anyone picks up this question, I later found the answer at https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3400398?start=0&tstart=0 - a thread I failed to find when I first searched.

Why can I not send a SMS message to a non iPhone when MMS is turned off? I'm getting charged an MMS every time I send a text to a non iPhone so have turned off MMS. Have tried all sorts of work arounds include rests etc. Anybody any ideas?
Both of those are carrier features, contact your cell phone provider and ask them why.

Why can,t i send a picture message to my contactcs who do not have an iphone?
Make sure you have MMS on in Settings > Messages.
If it is, make sure the other phone can send/receive MMS messages.

Why can't people send a text message to my new iPad phone number
Why can't people send a text message tou my new iPad phone number? I just got this iPad for my birthday and my wife has secretly told everyone the new number to send text messages to as a surprise when I onpened it... but none came through.
Only individuals with iOS devices can message you and they must message you via the email address(es) associated with your Apple ID.
They cannot message a phone number unless you have an iPhone associated with the account.

Why can't I send a text message while talking on the phone?
Today I was on the phone and received an important text. I tried to answer it, but received the message that it was not delivered. I had to end my call to send the text. Why can't I send a text or get directions from Google Maps while I am on the call?
Google Voice allows texting (and is useful for other things as well). If you're not in the U.S., I don't have any suggestions beyond searching the App Store for "Text" or "SMS". In the U.S., there are a number of apps that allow texting to other people who have the app (much the same way iMessage works) but there are a few that will also allow texting to other phones.
Best of luck. -
Why can't I send Photos using Message on my Mac w Yosemite
I have just tried to send a photo, taken w my iPhone 6 and properly shared automatically to my MBP w/Yosemite.
I cannot send it via email; I cannot send it via Messages.
I checked for solutions re email; I use Postbox as my email client which may be the problem, though not sure how to fix.
Right now I want to know why I can't use Messages either! It had been working OK till now for text msgs.
Ideas/solutions would be appreciated!
Thanks in advancethanks for replying; yes I did use that. Sorry I didn't mention.
The email option is grayed out when I tried to use it.
Oddly, I found a work around, which was to send the pics from my iPhone, which I guess uses the iOS version of Mail.
thanks -

Why can't I send photos through Messages anymore?
I just updated my software for the new iTunes and Safari this morning, but now I can't send photos on Messages. The recipient is someone I talk to everyday, he uses an iPhone, and I just successfully sent photos yesterday. Only after this update have I had any problems? I've tried completely closing the application and reopening it, I've tried different file types (JPEG, PNG, GIF) but no luck. I have a MacBook Pro 15" (2012), OS X Version 10.8.5.
There should be a camera button that you press on. It asks you if you want to use a picture already taken or to take one. Then you upload it on to the message and send.

Why can't I send a text message to more than one contact?
With all my previous cell phones I was able to send a single text message to more than one contact. With the iPhone I can only send to one contact and then I have to type the text message again and send to another contact, and so on. Or am I messing a fuction on the iPhone that allows for sending a text message to more than one contact?
No, you are not missing it. That feature is not available on the iPhone.

Hello guys, I really need some help with this because I need it a lot for both work and family matters.
