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.

    Try this...
    Delete the affected email account from your device.
    Tap Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars.
    Choose the affected email account, then tap Delete Account.
    Add your account again.

  • I am not able to send imessages but am able to receive them.

    I am using an iPhone 4s running the latest iOS...when I try to initate an imessage to a contact (that I know has imessage and it's turned on), I can only send as a text. Once they reply or initiate a message to me, then I can send imessages back to them. Even if I delete the imessage, as long as I don't turn the phone off, I can then initiate imessages to those that have sent to me. Once phone is restarted though, I have the same issue.
    I've tried changing my send/receive settings for imessage, does not seem to make a difference.

    Sounds like a chronic Apple issue. See these two articles:

    What version of Mac OS X are you using?
    What email application are you using?
    You have to configure both for sending & receiving email.  Look at the receive configuration.

  • Sending documents in Acrobat to get filled and receiving them back so you can read them

    I send out a RFP to potential web clients that is created in Acrobat - they can fill it out, check boxes... However when they send it back, it's in an XML format I can't read. Please advise on what I need to do to get the form back so I can read it.
    Thanks!

  • I cannot send iMessages, but my phone still receives iMessages.

    For the past two days, my phone has not been sending iMessages, but has still been receiving them from others. When I try to send an iMessage, it will continue to try to send it for hours and hours, rather than just sending it as a text message.
    I have tried turning my phone on and off, turning iMessage on and off, and turning my cellular data on and off. None of this has worked.
    Is anyone else having this problem, and if so, do you know how to fix it?

    Go into Settings>Messages and see if it is turned on and if it is, does it show that it is activated. Try turning it off and then back on again and see what happens.

  • I had been using iMessage all along with my friend who is using an iPhone 6. I choose to send a sms to him as I do not have any connection, after that there is no way I can send him an iMessage again. Can anyone advise how do I switch back?

    I had been using iMessage all along with my friend who is using an iPhone 6. I choose to send a sms to him as I do not have any connection, after that there is no way I can send him an iMessage again. Can anyone advise how do I switch back? I had tried resetting the network setting, toggling off the sms but to no avail.
    Thank you.
    Regards

    What do you mean you choose to send him an SMS because you don't have any connection. What kind of connection? Delete the thread with that individual that you sent via SMS, and as long as you have iMessage activated on your device and your friend has an active data connection, it should recognize that and send as an iMessage. Another scenario is to have the friend send you a message that you can respond to.

  • My iphone 5S will send texts as imessage but frequently switches to regular (green) messages even for people that I know use imessage - since we have exchanged (blue) messages previously. Is there something I can do to fix this or is it a unit problem?

    Please help.

    You can try to log out of iMessage and then sign back in.  However, even under optimal conditions, iMessage will not always work.  That's why the option of 'Send as SMS' is so important.  There might be temporary outages in the related iMessage servers.

  • How to unjam my ipad? I cannot receive but can send so have to use main pc to receive

I can however still send more photos but had to go to my PC to receive my emails as I c.c. myself into all the emails I sent.  Is the ipad jammed because I sent too many phtos at one time?

  • 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!

    Hi there nancyfrompilot mountain,

    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.
    Back up and restore your iPhone as new.

  • I can't send SMS (from Greece) from my iPhone 4 to USA. I mean that i send it but they don't receive it and i don't receive their SMS. Please, could anybody help me?

    I can't send SMS (from Greece) with my iPhone 4 to USA. I mean that i send it but they don't receive it and i don't receive their SMS. Could please anybody help me?

    That's more likely to be a carrier issue than an iPhone issue. You should each contact your respective carriers.

  • Daughter has an iPhone and she can send me a text but when I text her back I get error code 2127

    My daughter has an iPhone and she can send me a text but when I try to text her back I get the error code 2127. Does anyone know what this means? Does this mean my messages to her are being blocked somehow?

    Usually it means you are texting a number which isn't 10 digits in length.  I would recommend that you delete the entry in your Contacts for your daughter, then find the text she sent you and create your new Contact from that. If she is listed in your favorites - delete her from there too, then re-add after a successful hook-up.
