I can make calls fine, but I can't receive them!

Hi,
This is just so incredibly frustrating. I have two (one for me, one for my girlfriend) new iPhones, purchased roughly 36 hours ago, and neither one of us can receive calls yet. We can make calls and read maps, etc., but any calls that come in go to our old cell phones. Any ideas about how to fix this mess would be very much appreciated. …

This would be the case if your number had not been ported yet. However, not sure why it's still isn't done. I got my phone today. Activated and requested the number port through iTunes; within an hour or so my number had been ported. I ported my number from T-mobile.

  • Can't accept BBM invitations and Invites sent show as "Pending for Authorization" but recipients are not receiving them either (PIN Message Status : Service Blocked)

    I recenly changed device from BB Curve 8530 to BB Bold 9900 and ever since then can't accept BBM invitations and Invites sent shows only as "Pending for Authorization" but recipients are not receiving them either. Tried sending PIN messages  but  I got a red x next to the message and the status says: "Service Blocked" .
    When my phone got lost, I was lucky that I just synchronized my device to my BB Desktop. Not only was I able to retrieve my contacts (phonebooks and BBM) but also ALL txt msgs and even call logs
    Anway, that happening, I assumed I don't need to re-send all my BBM friends invites since some were able to communicate with me. But for those who have deleted my profile (knowing it got lost) and were still on my contact were the ones affected. I tried deleting them and sent an invite only to find out that: I can't accept BBM invitations and Invites sent shows as "Pending for Authorization" but recipients are not receiving any. (they also have the same pending for authorization notice on their end) 
    When I tried to send them a PIN message I get a red x next to the message nd get the service blocked message.
    Help I do not know what else to do.
    ** FYI: new contacts added with my new PIN have no prob sending invites and me accepting them all.

    Hello Lhea,
    This issue is most likely Caused by the BlackBerry not being provisioned for BlackBerry Data Services. 
    Please have a look at the following article that covers "Service Blocked" when sending a PIN message:

  • This relates to an earlier question I asked:  I have an iPhone and can send messages to a galaxy phone but the person cannot receive them; however, I can send them and it sounds like they are sent, but are not received.  I can get them from a galaxy.

    This relates to an earlier question I asked:  I have an iPhone and can send messages to a galaxy, but the person cannot receive them; however, I can receive messages from the galaxy.  I have only had an iPhone so the problem does not relate to a change in phones.  Up until about 1month ago I could send to the galaxy and they could be read.  Help!

    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact from the Contacts app. Send a new message to the contact.

    It's not a good idea to use a network disk for both Time Machine backups and other things.  By design Time Machine will eventually consume all the space on its output disk, which will then cause problem for your other files.  I'd store those other files on an external disk connected to the Time Capsule.  The problem with that is that Time Machine will only back up files that are local to your Mac.  That means that you'll only have one copy of the files on or attached to your Time Capsule.
    By the way, you've been misled by poor field labeling on this forum into typing a large part of your message into the field intended for the subject.  In the future just type a short summary of your post into that field and type the whole message into the field below that.

    I was sending text messages this morning but all of a sudden I stopped receiving them.  I have found out that I can send them but can't receive them on my mac book or on my wifes mac book, but can receive my messages on the iphone!!!   Can anyone help me?

    If you're referring to iMessages, then the problem is that Apple is having server issues. If the problems your having are with standard SMS, post back with further details.

  • My messages say they aren't sending but my friends are receiving them?? HELP!!!

    MY messages say they aren't sending but my contacts are receiving them ??

    Try a "reset" (different from restarting).
    Hold down on both the Home AND Sleep/Wake buttons until you see the Apple logo on black screen (about 10 seconds).
    When you see the Apple logo on the black screen, let go of both buttons.
    Hope this fixes Messages!

  • TS3367 I can make FaceTime calls on my iPhone 4 but I can't receive them. When people FaceTime me nothing happens?

    I Can make FaceTime calls on my iPhone 4 but I cannot receive them. When people FaceTime me nothing happens on my phone at all?

    no what I meant was I have read through what information it gave me when I asked the question and other than checking my wifi or checking my iMessage is on or checking my number and email address was correct I didn't think that the information applied to my specific problem so that is why I asked the question? I asummed it would be something simple and silly that I am doing wrong. I have not spoken to any technicians, I am new to this site and you can probably tell I'm not that knowledgable with technology so I apologise if I have put you out, I don't feel your rudeness or your sarcasim towards me was necessary.  Don't worry I will go into an apple shop and ask instead.

  • 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?

  • I can send my friends iMessages but I don't receive them back.

    I have an Iphone 5c and it's new, and whenever I text someone (who have iphones), I'm able to send iMessages, but I don't get them back? Also, I can send and receive iMessages from Ipods, just not iphones.

    There's no right answer -- whatever the sender is using to send the messages.
    I have mine set to my phone number and my email address.  Both are checked.  You probably only have one checked.

  • HT2500 I can receive messages, but I can't receive them...???

    OOPs.. I can receive messages, but I can't send them!! 

    Then that means that the user that you are trying to reach has not setup and registered Messages on their iDevice. They have to set it up first before you can reach them. And you can only message with other iOS users, not with Android devices or other cell phones.

    Because Apple's currently having trouble with the iMessage and FaceTime servers. Nothing can be done from your end.
