I am not receiving texts unless they are a response to a text I send.

A friend of mine sent me a text that I did not receive. I thought that was strange so I texted her asking her to resend. She replied to my text and I received it but then she sent a new text adn I did not receive it. We tried multiple times and I never received a text from her unless it was a reply. She also has an iPhone but she has iMessage turned off and mine is turned on.
I also did not receive a group text from someone else. They do not have an iPhone.
I tried signing in and out of iMessage. I got stuck on "activating" so I ended up backing up my phone and reseting everything so I could sign back into iMessage.
Please help me figure out why I'm not receiving some texts.
Thank you!!

Alll I can say is try to reset your iphone like, taking out the sims card. ALso try loging out of your Facetime and your email on your phone, telll me if that works, and did you try connecting Apple Support Team?

I am having trouble sending text messages. They aren't always going through. And sometimes I'm not receiving text messages. I also have voicemails that I didn't receive until late at night that were left early in the day. I need to resolve this issue ASA

julie@remax,
I know that this would concern me just the same and we want to make sure that your device is connected and receiving these notifications when available. How long have you been having this issue? Are you receiving a specific error message when sending a message? Are you aware if this happens in one location specifically or everywhere you go? Does the issue with messaging occur with all numbers? Share some details, so that we may assist.

Episodes do not auto-download even though I receive email confirmation they are ready. 'Check For Avail. Downloads' says all available are already downloaded. Signed in properly on an authorized machine.

Thank you for the reply. These are not, however, past purchases; these are fresh episodes of purchased seasons. For instance, I receive an email that a new episode of Elementary is ready for me to download. When I check for available downloads, though, I am told there are none. So these are not previous purchases that I am trying to re-view or download again. These are fresh items for which I have paid but which I appear unable to access unless, perhaps, I were to re-purchase them. Grrrrrr.

I recently upgraded to a G5 and Logic Pro 8. My previous system was a Power Mac 7200 with Logic Platinum 3.5.3. I can not open the old song files unless they are first saved in Logic 6 or 7. Where do I get a dongle for Logic 7?

eBay or Craigslist would be the only choice.

HOW TO display a simple line of text if the user isn't logged in and not display it if they are?!?!?

there must be a way to display a simple line of text (or a link) if the user isn't logged in (as wholesale customer), and not display it if they are?!?!?
it's a basic kind of <php echo> var type of function.... there must be an equivalent in this BC system..... anyone?!?!? PLEASE!
thank you
Chris.

ok, after chattting with LIVE SUPPORT i've discovered {module_isloggedin}

LG Revolution not receiving text messages from iphone user

I am not receiving text messages from iphone user, sporatically. The messages are showing as reveived on Verizon website in usage detail, but not being received on my phone.

This issue needs fixed asap! I have a few suggestions that should help you get this resolved. If they are showing up in the usage details, that means they are hitting the Verizon network, but for some reason they are not showing up on the phone. I recommend clearing the cache from your messaging/text messaging programs. Go to settings> applications> manage apps> all> Messaging/Text Messaging> Force Stop/Clear Cache/Clear Data. Erase the old text threads that you have saved and retry.
If that doesn't work, please let us know the following:
1) Do they come in delayed or not at all?
2) Do you have any 3rd party messaging apps installed?
3) Do they have any problems receiving messages from you?
4) When they're sending messages, are they directly to you, or do you have this problem when the iPhone user sends to a group of people?
Thanks for the additional info! I'm sure we can find a fix.

All of a sudden I can not receive text messages on my MOTOX. Does anyone know how to solve this problem. I can send them, but can't receive them.

My MOTO X was working fine, then all of a sudden, I can not receive text messages. I have checked the settings and they look correct to me, and I have done everything the web site recommends, except wiping the phone and starting over, to try and fix it. Has anyone else had this issue, and how did you resolve it?
Thanks so much.

That's strange that your Moto X wont receive any text. Thank you for trouble shooting the issue. Let's see what's going on! Does your device have any physical or liquid damage? Does anyone else have an issue with calling or texting? What zip code are you in?

2 people sent e-mails to me today and I did not receive them. They both were replies to my e-mail (both different). I am running 10.7.5. I searched everywhere and nothing. Not on iCloud either.

2 people sent e-mails to me today and I did not receive them. They both were replies to my e-mail (both different). I am running 10.7.5. I searched everywhere and nothing. Not on iCloud either. This happened a few years ago and never noticed it again. I received emails before and after the 2 that never showed up so can't figure out why I didn't get them! Does Apple automatically delete some emails based on text? These were nothing crazy. One was about decorating cookies for a party and which colors to use! HELP! Now I am worried I am missing important emails!

Greetings Val Val,
Welcome to the Apple Support Communities!
I understand that you are not receiving some email from an account that you have set up on your Mac. To begin the troubleshooting process, I would recommend reading over and working through the attached article.

Have a great day,

Recently started not receiving texts from one person - AT&T user, also HTC One

I recently started not receiving texts from one person. He also has an HTC One (older model) but has AT&T as his provider. We were texting back and forth last Friday morning (11/8) and then he called me and ever since then I have not received a single text he has sent. He is receiving all of mine and we can receive phone calls back and forth, but his text messages are not coming through. We have both tried restarting our phones and I have also tried deleting him as a contact and recreating it however nothing works. I checked to make sure he was not blocked (which I knew wasn't the case since I could receive phone calls from him as well), and even tried turning the "block contact" on and back off. Any solutions would be greatly appreciated. Right now we are using work arounds with google-talk and facebook messenger but it's very frustrated for me to not receive any of the texts that his phone is saying I am receiving.
It had started sporadically over the past few weeks where I would miss a text from him every once in awhile, but now I am receiving nothing. He is the only one that I am having this issue with as I have texted back and forth with multiple others the past few days with no issues.
Thanks in advance for the help!

Hi! I'm also having the same problem. I have an iphone 5 & one person (who also has an iphone 5 but has AT&T as a provider). We had been able to send & receive phone calls & texts until mid-November. Now, we can both give & receive phone calls from each other and she receives my texts, however, I DON"T receive hers. In fact, if I'm in a group text message with her, I don't receive any of the texts that include her, even though I can give/receive texts individually from the others in the group message. The other two in the group message CAN receive both her texts & mine. This is so strange - I was left out of a whole thread of text messages & none of us knew it. They thought they were including me (nothing bounced back) & I didn't know I wasn't receiving them. Since her texting works with both of the others, I'm concluding the problem must be with my phone. Do I have an incorrect setting? I'm not sure what could have happened. PLEASE help!

I'm not receiving texts from other iphone users

I cannot receive texts from certain people in my contact list. My imessaging is turned off and when I go to turn it on says "waiting on activation" so I attempt to sign in with my apple ID and password and it says please check your network connection. Its been doing this for days. It doesnt matter where I am, how many bars I have or if I'm connected to Wifi.
I am PRAYING someone can help me here since even the store cant.
If I dont get this figured out, I'll have no other choice but to uprade to Samsung.
Also since updating to the dreaded ios7 I cannot use Snapchat, and myinstagram and facebook do not integrate together.

If they are receiving that error message, it corrected and you are deregistered from iMessage

HT1349 Samsung phone is not receiving texts from iphone users

we switched from iphone to samsung galaxy and now we are not receiving text messages from some iphone users. I think their phones still think we are iphones, and they're trying to send us imessages. how do we disable the imessage association with our phone numbers?

If you still have the iPhone, use it to deactivate iMessage. Otherwise contact Apple.

Not receiving texts from US Cellular friends only

I am not receiving texts from US Cellular subscribers only. I have been told by my nice customer service people at Verizon that it is probably a US Cellular issue. This just isn't sitting well with me. I do seem to be receiving texts from other carriers (Boost, Verizon, AT&T). My iphone 4S is updated as far as I can tell. I've only had a couple of weeks and I have yet to receive any of the messages US cellular people have sent (so it's not like they are delayed, etc. I just do not receive them). I am very frustrated and do not want a different phone. The reason I changed to Verizon FROM US Cellular was for the iphone 4S. Feeling very disappointed and frustrated. Love all the other features of this phone, but as a phone (which is the purpose of the thing) it has been sub standard. Anyone else having problems receiving text messages?
I have tried : turning imessage off. rebooting phone. updating network etc (options 1 & 2). I can send messages to these same people and they receive them. They can call me, but when they send me texts they never reach me.
HELP

Thunderbolt is not receiving text messages

I recently purchased a thunderbolt, approximately a month and a half ago. It was working completely fine until about a week ago, when I started having issues with not receiving text messages. It can be resolved by resetting the phone, but there's no way to know whether or not I need to do that unless I'm in the middle of a text conversation and I suddenly stop receiving messages. I know my messages are going out because I can still communicate through facebook and other non SMS or MMS applications, and all other functions work properly, but this happens once or twice a day, and is extremely frustrating.

I'm having the same problem. My Thunderbolt is a refurb I received when my first Thunderbolt died this past fall. I never had any SMS/MMS issues until very late February. The problem is that I cannot receive any text messages. Sending messages works fine, but I cannot receive any. If my wife sends me a message, her phone will say it goes through, but I get nothing on my end. This was a huge problem when I went 4-5 days without receiving any texts since I didn't know I wasn't receiving the messages.
The problem resolves itself when I reboot/restart the phone, but I don't want to have to reboot my phone every night. The most recent time, I went 2 days without any texting problems before the "can't receive" issue came back.
My Thunderbolt is STOCK (radio, ROM, etc.). I have no 3rd-party texting apps -- I'm using the stock messaging app.

E75 not receiving text msgs

My phone has just started not receiving text messages. Sometimes they come in after a little while but not always - anyone know how to fix this? SIM card is fine.
Thank you

I tried texting myself... recieved an error message: memory is full or messages are locked.
Weird thing is that I have not had any message saying that my inbox or sent or anything is full. I did check my memory usage and I only had 0.6 MB free. After I deleted some messages, I immediately started receiving "old" texts. Again though, they stopped and I had no messages saying that I had any full memeory issues. So, I deleted a whole bunch more - including texts and pictures. Freed up 48 MB.
Now, everything seems to be working fine.
(BTW, all storage is on the phone. I do not have a microSD card.)
Not sure why this worked and why I didn't get an inbox full message as I had received them in the past.

I am not receiving texts unless they are a response to a text I send.
