I can message a friend from my iphone but not my ipad. Why?

Why can I message all contacts on iphone but not all on ipad?

iMessage on an iPad only works with other iOS Apple devices. But there are some SMS text apps for the iPad.

    I just bought an iPad mini. Some of the photos from my iPhone downloaded to my new device but not all. Why?

    Photo stream photos only remain in iCloud for 30 days, giving your devices enough time to download them.  When you enabled photo stream on your iPad mini, you only downloaded photos from the last 30 days, as older photos are no longer in iCloud.  To stream older photos to your iPad, add them to a shared stream on your phone (http://help.apple.com/icloud/#/mmc0cd7e99).  Then you can save them to the camera roll on your iPad mini and delete the shared stream.

    Hello apple
    I have the problem with my iPhone and my friends have this problem too.
    My iPhone have the problem about calling and answer the call. When I use my iPhone to call I can't hear anything from my iPhone but the person that I call can answer it but when answer both of us can't hear anything and when I put my iPhone to my face the screen is still on and when I quit the phone application and open it again it will automatic call my recent call. And when my friends call me my iPhone didn't show anything even the missed call I'm only know that I missed the call from messages from carrier. Please check these problem I restored my iPhone for 4 time now in this week. I lived in Hatyai, Songkhla,Thailand and many people in my city have this problem.
    Who have this problem??

    Apple isnt here. this is a user based forum for technical questions. The solution is to restart, reset, and restore as new which is in the manual after that get it replaced for hard ware failure. if your within your one year warranty its replaced if it is out of the warranty then it is 199$

  • How can I transfer photos from an IPhone 5 to an IPad 2 using a cable.  I have tried using the lightning to firewire adapter with my current lead but this only seems to allow a download from the Ipad to the Iphone and not the other way around.

    The devices are not designed for transfer of that kind.  Use Photo Stream as suggested by another poster, or transfer photos to your computer (a good idea anyway since they will be lost if your device needs to be reset), then use iTunes to sync them to the other devices.

  • How can I transfer contacts from an iPhone to a new iPad with another Apple-ID?

    How can I transfer contacts from my iPhone to a new iPad with another Apple-ID?

    You can't. Not directly anyway. You might be able to import them to your computer and then sync them to the iPad but there is no way to transfer them over the air or by connecting the two devices with a cable.
    I know absolutely nothing about apps like this, but I did a very quick Google search and found this.

  • Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past and have tried a hard reset but it can no longer find the printer.

    Why can I print from my iPhone and not my iPad? I have been able to do it in the past. I have tried a hard reset but it still cannot find the printer.

    In addition to rebooting the router and the iPad, I would reset the printer as well. Unplug the printer from power and do the same with the router. Leave the router unplugged for about 30 seconds. Plug the router in first and let it totally start up, plug the printer in again, and then reboot/reset the iPad.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
    If that doesn't work, you can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your device settings again.... All of the settings in the settings app will have to be re-entered. Your WiFi passwords, location services, device preferences all have to be re-entered. You will not lose any data or media whatsoever.

  • I can print from my iPhone but not from my iPad

    I Can print from my iPhone, but not from my iPad.  The options
    select a printer and number of copies are active.  The print
    button is not active ( hot ).

    Try this  - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

  • Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade.  I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade.  I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)

    Yosemite does not recognize HP printer after upgrade.  I can print from my iPhone, but not my 13" Macbook Air (2013)
    Are others having the same problems?

    Try this. Worked for me.
    - turn off your router
    - turn off you Mac's after removing all available printers
    - turn off all iDevices
    - do a factory reset of your printer remove all cables min. 30 sec.
    - turn on your router first
    - ran the network set up wizard
    - give your printer also a new name like "DeskJet 2015"
       Something which you don't have used before.
    - turn on your Mac's and add your printer
    - turn on your iDevices at least.
    Should work after these steps.
    It worked for me including all iDevices.
    iOS and Yosemite

  • HP officejet Pro 8100 will print from an Iphone but not from my windows laptop

    HP officejet Pro 8100 will print from an Iphone but not from my windows laptop. I get an error stating "unable to communicate with printer"

    Hi Melatina66,
    Welcome to the HP Support forums.  I understand that when trying to print from your laptop that you get a communication error message.
    To better assist you, would you please provide some further information:
    1)       How is the printer connected (USB cable, ethernet or wireless)?
    2)      When you installed the printer on your laptop did you set it up with a USB cable?  If  yes, did you switch the connection type on the laptop from USB cable to ethernet/wireless?
    3)      What version of Windows operating system are you running on the laptop (Windows XP, Windows Vista, Windows 7, or Windows 8, etc)?
    4)      When printing from your iPhone are you using Apple's AirPrint or HP's ePrint app?
    Thank you.
    Regards,
    Happytohelp01

    using an ipad will use the email address since you can't make a phone call.  see the link.
    Your basically calling/emailing yourself that's why your getting a busy signal.

    It's a glitch with facebook. All you can do is wait for FB to fix it or find a work around like third party apps that might work better

  • Photos uploaded through icloud control panel are only synced with iphone but not with ipad

    Photos which are uploaded through icloud control panel are only synced with iPhone but not with iPad. Photos taken with iPhone or iPad are synced with all devices. So, why I do not get the uploaded photos from my pc to iPad? I alredy disabled photo stream on all devices - same failure

    If only one device is not getting updated data, you need to troubleshoot that device and not photostream itself.
    Verify that ipad is connected to wifi, charged over 20 percent, camera app is closed and take a photo of the screen (or anything else, but then close that camera app).
    Open photostream folder on that ipad and see if picture shows up. If you network is good, should not take long.
    Don't forget that while your phone can use wifi and cellular (even it suppose to use wifi for photostream, cellular networks got much better since original photostream was implemented) - you ipad is probably wifi only.
    If picture shows up - you ipad and photostream have no problems and you can go to other devices one by one.

  • Wirelessly iTunes see my iPhone, but not my iPad

    wirelessly iTunes see my iPhone, but not my iPad???

    You do NOT have to plug the iPad into a power source to sync with WiFi. I sync without plugging my iPad every day. Like Dah-veed, I do not auto sync. If you have all of the settings configured correctly, the iPad does not have to be plugged in to a power source to sync with WiFi.
    The iPad will sync AUTOMATICALLY, if the iPad is plugged into a power source and if iTunes is running on your computer. It does not have to be plugged in to sync manually.
    When is set up to sync wirelessly - I made the selections like Dah-veed indicated above and then I clicked on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes to lock in the setting. You have to apply the changes that you make in the iTunes sync process.
    BTW - I have the original iPad - not the iPad 2.
