If iMessage has become deactivated on your iPhone, which, apparently it has, the phone will need to send an SMS to activate it again. Therefore, you'll need a cellular connection.

  • I have used the same CS5.5 software for almost 2 years. I tried installing it on my new laptop and the installer is saying that my serial # is invalid. How do I fix this?

    I had Adobe CS5.5 Master Collection downloaded onto my old computer for almost a year. I uninstalled CS5.5 from my old computer and tried installing it on my new laptop, but the installer says that my serial # is not valid. How do I fix this? I have never run into this problem before, and I really need my software back up and running, because I have a sizeable project due in 3 days. Any help is appreciated!

  • I updated my iPad to ios 7.1, and now I can't double click on the home button to switch between apps, or to close them. What happened? How can I fix this?

    I can't double click on the home button to switch between apps, or to close them. This happened after I updated to ios 7.1

    Swiping up from the bottom of the screen with four fingers did not bring up the app preview. A single press on the home button still brings me back to the home screen, but a double press of the home button does nothing following updating to 7.1   Given that, when I added a software home button as suggested by DIAVONEX, I found that all of the apps WERE still open! So thank you DIAVONEX, and you should be careful, bobseufert, as your information was inaccurate.( I did try turning it off and that didn't change anything. ) I don't really want a software home button on my screen, but I guess I will use it until either there is another update to resolve this glitch or someone else identifies a quirky setting that I inadvertently activated...

  • I'm in a group message with 12 people. All are iPhone users, except for the token Galaxy user. I can receive messages, but I cannot send them. How can I fix this?

    Title says it all

    Hey kenth93939!
    Here is an article for you about group messages that has some helpful information and troubleshooting tips for this issue:
    iOS: Understanding group messaging
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5760
    The Group Messaging setting applies only to MMS messages.
    Your wireless carrier may restrict the maximum number of recipients allowed in a group message with MMS.
    Disabling Group Messaging has no effect on iMessage behavior. Responses to group iMessages are always sent to all recipients.
    Group messaging with MMS requires an appropriate plan from your carrier for use on iPhone.
    Carrier messaging rates may apply when using group messaging with MMS.
    Additional Information
    It is not possible to remove yourself from a group message.
    To add or remove recipients, you must create a new group message conversation.
    If you experience an issue with iMessage, SMS, or MMS messaging, try the steps outlined in this article.
    To learn more about SMS, MMS, and iMessage see iOS: Using Messages.
    Thanks for being a part of the Apple Support Communities!

    How to Remove “Other” Data from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch
    http://www.igeeksblog.com/how-to-remove-other-data-from-iphone/
    With an iOS device, the “Other” space in iTunes is used to store things like documents, settings, caches, and a few other important items. If you sync lots of documents to apps like GoodReader, DropCopy, or anything else that reads external files, your storage use can skyrocket. With iOS 5/6/7, you can see exactly which applications are taking up the most space. Just head to Settings > General > Usage, and tap the button labeled Show All Apps. The storage section will show you the app and how much storage space it is taking up. Tap on the app name to get a description of the additional storage space being used by the app’s documents and data. You can remove the storage-hogging application and all of its data directly from this screen, or manually remove the data by opening the app. Some applications, especially those designed by Apple, will allow you to remove stored data by swiping from left to right on the item to reveal a Delete button.

  • I cant access imessages says my email is already in use how do i fix this i only have one email

    I cant access imessages says my email is already in use how do i fix this i only have one email

    The login parameter was a username, I'm an early adopter.
    I've set up a new account using an "[email protected]" email, but it doesn't solve the fact that I should have been able to reuse my normal email as the account associated with it was deleted (supposedly?).
    As for the sync errors, I keep getting them, but have narrowed them down to bookmarks syncing. I'll create another thread for that when I know more I guess.

    Hi newipoduser,
    Here are some possible solutions:
    Do you use musicmatch jukebox on your computer? If you do, you have to go into task manager on windows and end process mim.exe. It interferes with disconnecting ext devices
    Empty your "trash/recycle bin."
    If that doesn't work, try quitting all your programs, especially music-type programs, basically things that look for mp3's etc.
    if that doesn't work, "log off" then "log on" and that should refresh/purge your OS system.
    Finally, you can restart your computer.
    Hope one of these helps!
    Cheers,

  • Trying to create itues account for children's school ipad and says does not meet min age.  Tried to go back and fix bday as was put in incorrectly and still says "does not meet min age".  How do I fix this?

    I'm trying to create a new apple account for my daughter's school ipad.  She put in her bday incorrectly and said "does not meet age requirements".  We went back and put in her correct date (over 13) and still says "does not meet age requirement".  How do I fix this??

    The old rule of thumb was to keep 10-12 GB free. Any lower than that and you will start to have trouble. I was very close to that for a long time and never had any complaints. Now, Lion "encourages" 20% free space (on my newer 250 GB drive) so I try to keep it with more than 50 GB free.
    Do you still have the original memory in that machine too? The metal plate you have to remove in the battery compartment also provides access to the RAM. Your machine will take 2 GB of RAM, possibly 3. You definitely want to max that out too.
    Regardless, you definitely need a new hard drive. When Apple switched to PC components, they had to take a quality hit. These 2.5" notebook hard drives are not very reliable. I'm surprised your hard drive hasn't died by now. I usually get a new hard drive with every major OS upgrade. A $ 50 investment every couple of years is no big deal.
    Unfortunately, you (and I) suffer from being an early adopter in 2006. Those 32-bit machines only accept 2 GB RAM (maybe 3) and are only 32-bit so they can't be upgraded to Lion. Because of this limitation, you won't see as dramatic an improvement as you would with a 2007 machine. If you run more than a couple of applications, your hard drive is always going to have to be doing some VM work. My 2006 machine has even lost its bluetooth. I gave it to my brother. My very similar 2007 Macbook is still running great.
    So, you must get a new hard drive because your old one is likely on death's door. If you don't have at least 2 GB - get it. If you can't afford a new machine, you might want to consider an SSD. That might help mitigate your RAM limitations. You can spend from $ 100 to $ 350 and get a dramatic speed improvement.
