I can't send messages on iMessage!
I cant send messages to phones or anything else, it just sayd they're gmail accounts! it says on the bottom left hand corner Jabber Available, but i dont know how to get off Jabber! Help me!
Hi,
Do it this way.
On the Mac Shut down the Messages app
On the iPhone go to Settings > Messages.
Remove the Apple ID.
Place the iPhone in Airplane mode for 5 mins (this breaks with the server)
On restarting the iPhone in normal mode go to Settings > Messages and check the app is active, that the iPhone Number is listed and that it is greyed out but ticked as Active.
Re-add the Apple ID.
The break with the server and re-adding the Apple ID will cause the iMessages server to re-link them.
Now restart the app on the Mac.
You should one or two pop ups saying the iPhone is using the Apple ID and the iPhone number.
Accept the pop up(s).
Accepting the pop ups adds the iPhone number to the list in Messages > Preferences > Accounts > iMessages account for the Receive At and the Send From drop down.

Why i can´t send message by iMessage
Hello friends
I can't send message from iMessage (MBP or iMac) for my friend (use iPhone5S), but i can send for other people, and my friend can do the same, send for other people but can't send for me.Hi,
If your Mac version is sending From your iPhone number check that the Messages app is set for a country or region in the iMessages account.
Messages > Preferences > Accounts > iMessages account > Click th Details button > Sign In (again) > In the pane that then appears check the country code nearer the bottom.
If they are sending to your iPhone Number they may need to add the Country Code.

Hello plz I need help !! I can't send my message with iMessage! I don't understand why?! Yesterday I send it! And now it's not working! I have credits ! So why?! PLZZZZZ need help have to talk to my friend!!
Let me clarify.
iMessage is completely different from regular SMS. iMessage is where you can text from Apple device to Apple device (ex. iPad to iPhone, or iPod to iPad)
SMS is texting service for all phones, excluding the ipod, ipad. (ex. iPhone to Droid, or iPhone to Nokia)
So when you iMessage someone on you iPhone, it is free and can be sent to anyone with an Apple device.
When texting SMS, you can send to anyone with any kind of cell phone. -

Check with your cell provider and make sure your texting plan is properly provisioned.

I have read all the questions regarding the "Can't send photo using iMessage".
I have read all the questions regarding the "Can't send photo using iMessage". I followed everything and check everything that was in it. It's still the same. I am still not able to send a photo. It started happening last week. It was fine before that. There is no error message.
It will try to send but it will get stuck just before it sends
and the red ! will appear with the "Not Delivered" status.
When i tap on the !, it just says "This iMessage was not delived".
No other message or photo is sending as the same time as the photo.
I did reset it, I checked the email address, removed it as well. Turned it off then back on. Signed out and signed back in. Wi-Fi strength is very good. iOS is 6.0.1. I checked for updates, it is up-to-date I also checked a link http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755. It did not help at all.
What's wrong?!?!?!?!It is not a matter of reconsidering the decision. There are unsolveable technical problems with trying to run a program such as Firefox on Blackberry OS. We would need Blackberry to distribute a tool similar to Android's NDK to run on Blackberries.

Upgraded to ios6 on ipad2 now I cant send messages from imessage.
Upgraded to ios6 on ipad2 now I cant send messages from imessage. Any fix? I've rebooted/powered down and on again and in Settings turned messages off and on again. Still won't work...
I did speak a bit too soon it seems - while I can now send messages again from my iPad 2, it still doesn't show me messages that were sent to me via my telephone number. Which is weird, because in the "You can be reached by iMessage at:" setting I do have my telephone number checked.
At this moment I have set my iPad 2 and iPhone 4's "Start new conversations from:" setting to my Apple ID e-mail address. This way at least I can send messages *and* receive messages if people don't use my telephone number to send me messages...
So yes, you should probably wait a while before restoring your iPad 2 - it doesn't fix things completely. -
i have problem with my contacts. I can't send message if the contact didn't send me a message before. How can I add new address?
Hi tizac,
You will want to add them to your Contacts.
There's a "+" button at the bottom of the contact list on the left to add a contact.
If you need to add the email address or phone number to an existing contact, there's an Edit button at the bottom of the contact info (on the right).
Once you have the contact email address or phone number you want to message to, scroll all the way down to the bottom of their information and there are options to:
Send Message FaceTime
Share Contact Add to Favorites
Of course choose "Send Message" to send an iMessage to them and you will start a new chat. You will be given the options of how to contact them, via phone number (if they are on an iPhone) or email (if they are on an iPod touch or iPad). They do need to be signed up for iMessage or it won't allow you to send.

I can not send messages on an iPad mini the send button stays light gray and will not send. I can receive. I reset and logged out and back inn with no results. It worked fine when we first set it up. Any suggestions?
Hello iMessage issues 1234,
Thank you for the details of the issue your daughter is experiencing with sending messages on the iPad. It sounds like you might have the Subject Field turned on. To disable this go to Settings > Messages > Show Subject Field.
iPhone User Guide - Messages settings
http://help.apple.com/iphone/7/#/iphf2d853e3
If the Subject Field is not enabled but messages are still not sending, I recommend continuing with the following article:

Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
