I can't send iMessage to some people who I used to be able to, prior to iOS7 upgrade.

I can't send iMessage to some people who I used to be able to, prior to iOS7 upgrade. I'm sure these people are still using iPhones. Is there something to do with my settings? Or theirs?

I got my problem solved but I'm not sure what solved it. I DFU mode my iPhone and then restarted it, the other person only restarted it and now we can iMessage normally. Recently I had the same issue with a new contact but the next day got solved but I didn't do anything.
I hope this gives you some answers insetad of more questions =S...
Regards.

ACTIVATING FACETIME AND IMESSAGES
Activating Facetime and Imessages on your phone requires the ability to send SMS messages and depending upon where you are that might be an international SMS. Check with your carrier to see if your plan supports sending of international SMS messages. If you are having trouble activating Facetime or Imessages turn them both off on your device and reset the device (Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost)). Wait for the device to restart and wait a minute and turn Facetime and imessage back on and wait for activation. If that does not fix things read the following articles:

Can't send text to some people

I have a problem with texting that is driving me buggy. I can't send a text message to my wife or my son. They are both part of my friends and family plan. There may be others, but I don't send a lot of text messages (there are at least six or seven that are completely normal). If I just enter their phone number, it will send the text ok. But, as soon as I try to continue the thread or use the contact (for the send to) it just returns the message "text not sent".
Any ideas?

That solution does work ... sort of. Because of Facebook or something, the phone number is locked. However, I entered it again as a 9 digit phone number and that worked.
Anybody know how to unlock and remove the original number?

I cannot send iMessages to some ppl who have an iPhone connected to the internet

My iPhone is not recognizing some other iPhones connected to the internet among my contacts. Hence we cannot use iMessages, e en though their iMessage option is switched on in the settings. In other cases i can send iMessages using their apple ID instead of their number. it is a bit complicated.
Any ideas?

Hey "AppleTechGenius"...you realize the thread you're posting to is almost two years old, & the OP has not posted since that original post, correct?

Why i can't send iMessage to certain people even they are registered the iMessage account already?

i have no idea why it show that my friend is not registered with iMessage even i have chat with him a few times before... :s

HI,
My personal view on this is that the iMessages account has too few alert messages in this regard.
You seem to get that messages whether the person has never registered, has turned Off that registration or is out of range of Cell Phone and/or Wifi coverage.
i.e. there seems to be only one Alert messages not matter what the issue is at that moment in time.
NOTES.
Removing an Apple ID from an iPhone gets an alert Messages you will not be able to use the Name/ID anywhere - implying it will be removed from Messages on the Mac (I have not evidence that this happens).
What I have not tested is whether you can still iMessage that Name/ID (iMessaging "yourself" at this point is not actually a fair test as in from the Mac using that same Apple ID).

The wifi at my school isn't very good. And I can't send iMessages through it. It works for some apps like score center and my radar app, but doesn't work for other apps like clash of clans and iMessage. How can I get it to work on that wifi network

In a roaming network, your "main" router is the device that would require port mapping/forwarding to be configured in order to access the IP camera from the Internet. This router is also the one that would be provide the private IP address for the camera which you will want to be a static one.
So as you described your network, the IP cameras should be getting an IP address or you assigned it a static one and this is the address that you would enter in the Private IP address (or equivalent depending on the router used) field when setting up port mapping.
If you are not able to access this camera from the local network, then this should be troubleshot first.

Not working imessage!! Credit card and I can not send imessage than after apple id. There are problems with Apple seeverele?? Thanks!
Before the service reset function. Wait 24 hours to activate imessage.

go to the settings and turn off imessage
but that don't change the issue that you will never be able to facetime eachtoher
the appleID is really meant as the handle that identify you it was not meant to be shared
but can see that people may want to do not buy apps more then once

I can't send texts to some contacts in my iphone 4s. This is a recent problem, as previously all texts would send. The red exclamation mark appears and 'not 'delivered' shows on screen.

First time I've used this discussion forum, so may be posting problem twice! I can't send texts to some contacts in my iphone 4s. This is a recent problem, as previously I could send texts whenever I wanted. The exclamation mark and "not delivered' shows on screen when I ry and text certain people. I know for a fact that my number is not blocked by the receipients?

I've just realised, further to my earlier question - that the people I am trying to text do not have Iphones? Could this make a difference? (Although I have text them in the past)

Your carrier determines what you can send in a text message, Apple has no control over it as SMS and MMS are completely carrier-based

Incredible can't send messages to specific people

I can't send texts to specific people. I can receive texts from those people and everyone else perfectly fine.
The people who can't receive my texts are on Verizon as well. They do receive the texts eventually some eight-twelve hours after I send them.
I read through other threads about not being able to receive messages; I tried some of the suggestions there, but they do not resolve the problem.

Have you checked the contacts numbers to make sure they dont have the +1 in front of the numbers because for some reason it seems that when users import contacts info from social site apps this happen and the problem happens... The Thunderbolt has a option to change this but it seems that the Incredible dont... At least not from the users that I suggested this to before..
Check your contacts numbers and see if the +1 is present.
Also try changing Settings / Call / Assisted Dialing and uncheck Enable Assistaced Daling at top..

Can you send iMessages from one iPad to another? If so how can I do this? Thanks

I have just got a new iPad and I'm wondering if you can send iMessages from one iPad to another? We are currently trying this out and can only send iMessages from an iPad to an iPhone is this correct? Thanks

You can use the Messages app to send messages to any iOS device or to a Mac running Mountain Lion. So yes you can send a message to another iPad.
Both iPads have to have Messages set up and you need to contact the other iPad using an email addresses as the "you can be reached at" email address.
Do you have it set up correctly on both iPads?
