HT5821 My new iPad iMessage will not send messages.

I have everything setup correctly, including the email address and account information.  It just says unable to send with the red explanation point with a red circle. Does give the option to resend.  This is all it will do. I've tried sending to a Mac computer and still the error. Thanks!

  • TS3899 Brand new iPad, email will not send?

    How do I make my iPad work properly with my existing "Orangehome" email address. My iPad receives emails OK from the Orange account, which has been operational on a PC for many years, but I can't send emails from my lovely new iPad, my PC works just fine, but my iPad won't send emails, the settings are the same as my PC. I've tried smtp ports 25 and 587, but iPad won't work with either - does anyone out there know of a fix for this issue, Orange don't seem to care and have no ideas whatsoever - the questions is, does anyone in the Apple community care! I really don't want to have to use another email address, so please, please, pleaseeee help me?

    Hi tz, Thnaks for the input. The settings are the same as my PC, SSL is off and there is no Authentication required; I've check this requirement with Apple and Orange guidelines and this is also what they recommend; however, I'll try with the Authentication on and see what happens....I'll post again later, running out of time now so it could be after the weekend before I get back with an update. Thanks again.

  • TS5185 My IPAD will not send messages to non APPLE users.

    Today, Christmas Day, while trying to send a message my IPAD wanted me to turn on iMessage. There was no option not to do this. After it was turned on I could no longer send messages to non Apple users. After reading online that I could set send SMS on my IPHONE I did. Now I guess it send everything as an SMS message. Now my IPAD will not send messages to non Apple users. I guess Apple wants us to pick our friends only if the use Apple products. This is about as stupid as it gets. They want us to only communicate with Apple users. The only other option is to turn the feature off. Why have iMessage in the first place.
    So my situation is I can send SMS Messages on my IPHONE. I cannot send any messages to non Apple users on my IPAD and iMessages to my Apple users.
    This kind of stupidity is why I switched from Windows to Apple in the first place. Don't they test anything out anymore at Apple?

    Please don't take this the wrong way, but I think that you might be doing something wrong.
    Connect your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, and Mac using Continuity - Apple Support
    To use Continuity for SMS and MMS with your iPhone and your Mac, iPad or iPod touch
    Your iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch need to use iOS 8.1, and your Mac needs to use OS X Yosemite.
    Sign in to iMessage on your iPhone, your other iOS devices, and your Mac using the same Apple ID.
    On your iPhone:
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive > You Can Be Reached By, and add a check to both your phone number and email address.
    Go to Messages > Text Message Forwarding, and enable the device(s) you would like to forward messages to.
    Your Mac, iPad, or iPod touch will display a code. Enter this code on your iPhone to verify the SMS feature.

  • New iPad 3 will not charge from a mac. need help on that

    my new ipad 3 will not charge from a mac. need help why if any one knows? thk

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night. Also look at The iPad's charging challenge explained http://www.macworld.com/article/1150356/ipadcharging.html

  • IPad 2 will not send email from any app except from my actual email app

    IPad 2 will not send email from any app (eg camara, pdf edit apps, evernote ect.) except from my actual email app. It will send email from my email account in the mail app or online. Pls help :-/

    I had this problem
    I hit the power button and the round button at the same time and held it until it rebooted
    You get the black screen and the apple logo
    When that was done I want to the app and update screen and I was able to update my apps
    I suggest when you update stay on that screen until they all update
    I find it sometimes get stuck updating when I leave the screen as they are updating and do other things, but I could be wrong. It just seems to me that is when it happens.
    The reboot works and don't worry you don't lose anything when u reboot it's like shutting down a computer and powering it back up. Everything you had before will still be there.

  • My new iPad mini will not activate. What could be wrong?

    My new iPad mini will not activate.  Tried restarting the iPad with no luck.  What else can I try?

    On your computer, go to http://www.apple.com/itunes and download the current version (11.0.1).
    Your iTunes 10.6.3 is old and cannot support a new iPad running iOS 6.
    It is possible your computer is too old to support iTunes 11.  That could be the reason for the message that 10.6.3 is the current version.  In fact, it is not current and insufficient to support your new iPad.
    Good luck.

  • My new iPad mini will not charge when plugged into adapter. Any suggestions?

    my new ipad mini will not charge when plugged into adapter. What should I try?

    Does the charger get warm at all? Plug the cable into your computer with iTunes open. Does it say not charging.? If it does, the cable is good. The iPad will charge very slowly when pluged into your computer.
    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W or 12W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (2.5W, most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
