I can't seem to send SMS to an iPhone from my iPad mini.
I understand that I should have the availability to send free text to other iPhone and iPad. When I try sending, I receive a message failure notice. I've already gone thru the sets of setting up the iMessage.
IPads do not do SMS.
SMS is part of the cellular voice channel, iPads do data only.
iMessage is only between macs and iOS devices.
The recipient must be registered with iMessages and be connected.

I can't seem to get my headphones to work on my iPad mini when using iTunes remote.
I can stream to any Airplay capable system perfectlyvia Remote and control iTunes on my iMac as advertised.
Just want to be able to listen to iTunes on my iPad "wirelessly"Yay!
I discovered this lovely little forum entry that solved my problem!
(Remember this is for Windows, I'm not sure if the same will work for Mac)
This is what you do:
1: Have iTunes up and plug in your iPod.
2: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons down until the iPod shuts down.
3: When the screen is blank, release the Sleep/Wake and just hold the Home button down for about 15 seconds.
4: After then, iTunes will recognize an I iPod in Recovery Mode.
5: That's when iTunes will ask you to Update/Restore your iPod.
I'm pretty sure those are the steps.
(If anything is wrong, can someone fix it, please?)
But that really does work.
The writer said that his iPod was "stuck on the apple screen, and not going anywhere after that."
That was my issue, so hopefully this will work for you! -

How can I control a keynote presentation on my iPhone from my iPad?
I have Keynote installed on both my iPhone and iPad. I would like to be able to remotely control a presentation using my iPad. I would like the iPhone to display the slideshow while I remotely control the show using my iPad. I currently can control the show in the opposite way-my iPhone can easily find and control the slideshow displaying on the iPad. I really want to display the show on the iPhone while using the larger screen of the iPad to control the show while I read the presenter's notes. I only seem to be able to display on the iPad and use the iPhone as a remote control. (I know that this is probably the preferred user method.) The iPad will not even detect the iPhone when looking for devices. Both are on the same WiFi network and have bluetooth turned on. Does anyone know why the control only works in one direction or how to reverse control?
If I am understanding your question correctly what you are wanting to achieve is not possible. You can't run the same keynote presentation on both devices at the same time. Also, why would you want to use the small screen size of the iPhone as your display instead of the iPad? If it is just to see your presenter notes then print them out and use the iPhone as your remote.
Perhaps more info is needed so i fully understand your issue. -
I can't log into my Frontier email account from my Ipad mini.
I can't log in to my Frontier email account from my ipad mini. It goes to mg.mail.yahoo.com but the page stays white.
I've been with this service for nearly 2 years now and the problems just mount up. I had an account for close to 2 years on EE itself which suddenly does not exist. Advised by customer service agents to 'Sign up' for a new one. Try signing up, get to enter Bank account details - can only put in 4 digits. In what millenia were bank account numbers only 4 digits long? Why am I wasting an hour of my time fault finding for your developers? I should charge you £50 a hour for this waste of my time. Fire your project manager for this new website revamp, fire the developers and get someone in who can transition accounts from one system to another without destroying the whole user experience. Absolute disgrace, don't message me about Apps and how I should log in to my account for offers when I can't do any of that. I would advise anyone new to EE here to cancel your account within the 14 day grace period, you'll have neverending issues from fake data charges, extortionate roaming costs, somehow paying for data when on Wifi and much more.

Hi! I brought an iPhone 4 off my friend at work. The day I brought it, it was working fine but now I can't seem to send any messages or make phone calls. The network is showing up fine but each time I try to make a call it says "call failed" I can't seem to send any messages either? I can use the Internet fine and everything else on the phone. Can anyone help?
Hi chelsinator,
You can reset the phone and it won't cause any problems or cause you to lose any data - Hold down the Home and Power buttons at the same time and continue to hold them down until the Silver Apple appears.
The other thing you should do is to reset your network settings: Settings>General>Reset>Reset Network Settings. You will have to set up your Wifi again, but that oftentimes clears things up.
Cheers,

Just arrived in Mexico--hooked up to wifi--receive emails fine on Mac Mail, but can't seem to send an email. Any suggestions?
The outgoing mail server is rejecting mail from your network address. Typically that happens when your mail service provider is also your ISP, and you connect to it from another network. The SMTP server will allow connections without a password from anywhere, but it will only relay mail from within the ISP's network. It could also be that your account on the server has expired or been suspended.
If you need to send mail from outside your ISP's network, use an independent mail service provider. I don't have a specific recommendation. -
Cannot send SMS messages on iPhone 4
I purchased an iPhone 4 yesterday and it is allowing me to ring people but I can't seem to send or recieve sms messages or recieve phonecalls and when I ring someone it says 'withheld number'? Whats happening and why can't I send messages?
Are you in an area with sufficiant radio signal? Try the following:
Move near a window
Go for a walk
Locate and avoid thick metal ceilings
Avoid microwaves and similar devices
Once you are in a proper area, try the following:
Open Settings
Activate Airplane Mode
Wait five to ten seconds
Deactivate Airplane Mode
Allow radio and Wi-Fi signals to recooperate

How to send SMS ( Short Message Service ) from java code
Hi
How to send SMS ( Short Message Service ) from java code.
Thanks
GauravDo you need to receive SMS? If you need to receive SMS, you will need to host your own GSM device or modem so that people can send you SMS.
If not, you can just use internet SMS gateways like clickatell as mentioned above will do the work, and post to them by HTTP, XML or email. The cost is about 6-8 cents per SMS. There are cheaper services, but not always reliable. If you need to host your own GSM device, you can use software like http://www.kannel.org (GPL Open Source) or http://www.visualgsm.com. Alternatively, you may obtain a shortcode from your Telco - but these come with monthly subscription of maybe one or two hundreds.
Regards,
Joshua

I just got a brand new laptop and I can't seem to put music onto my iPhone - help? I'd really rather not completely empty my iPhone in order to have it agree with this new laptop. How do I get them to talk to one another and let me put my music on my iPhone?
The iPhone will only Sync to One iTunes Library at a time.

hi i can't seem to copy and paste pdf files from preview to a microsoft word document. it always comes up with nonsense characters in the word document. how do i fix this? thanks in advance
Hi,
The quickest way to do this (tested with OS 10.8.2, MS Word 2011) is in one line:
tell application "Microsoft Word" to close every document whose name begins with "book"
The reason why your script doesn't work is that you aren't specifying to Word which document you want it to close.
So, changing one line ought to do it:
close document incrementvalue -- instead of "close document"
But... when you close a document, you change the document count. Document 2 becomes document 1, document 3 becomes document 2 etc. So eventually you'd get a message saying "The object you are trying to access doesn't exist".
Because of this, if you want to do it in a repeat loop, you have to work backwards:
tell application "Microsoft Word"
set doc_count to count documents
repeat with x from doc_count to 1 by -1
if name of document x begins with "book" then close document x
end repeat
end tell
Hope this helps. -
Problem sending SMS to non iPhone users
Hi!
I have this problem when sending SMS to non iPhone users (BB users and simple phone users) they get the message in chunks... For example if I send one message with 131 characters they get the sms in 5 chunks, pieces...
I deactivated the MMS feature (in case that was that) but the problem persists...
Any ideas?I exchange SMS on a fairly regular basis with non-iPhone users - with those who are also AT&T subscribers and with those who are not, and this has never been reported to me by any non-iPhone user that I exchange messages with.
Doubtful this is being caused by the iPhone. I suggest calling AT&T technical support to report this and be prepared to answer a question such as which carrier the non-iPhone users are with.
