  • I can't send messages to some phone numbers!

    Are there some mobile numbers/Telephone Carriers that cannot receive iMessages?  I have a friend who has recently changed carriers and now I cannot send him messages from my iPhone.  Any help would be most appreciated!

    What is preventing you from sending him a message?
    Settings > Messages - Send as SMS to On, then if they are not iOS 5 device users (and they are registered with iMessage), it will send a standard SMS message.

  • Can't send messages using pop account

    Hello,
    I can’t send mail with some of my pop accounts using mail app. I have a .mac and a Yahoo account both work perfect. The other POP accounts don’t send. I get an error that says, “Cannot send message using the Server xxxxxxx” I check the setting and they are fine. It stop working a couple of days ago. I didn’t make any changes on the accounts settings.

    I had the same problem until I called Earthlink support – it's your ISP's problem not yours. They will help you open a new POP account and set a new port (in the advanced option in preferences) to authorize your ability to send mail. I have no idea whether Yahoo is as helpful as Earthlink. They may not be because they're free.

  • I can't send messages or call people with my NEW iPhone 4s.

    Hello.
    I live in Sweden and I ordered my iPhone 4s some days ago, I got it on Wednesday.
    Ever since I got it I noticed that I was having problems with my carrier, "Tele2". I can't send messages or even make calls, and I'm very disappointed. And I also can't connect to the 3G network at times, it just goes away, and this always leads to a reboot.
    I have to restart my phone every 5 minutes, and THEN I can send about 1-2 messages, then it goes back to what it was before. Crap.
    And I also called the people on "Tele2" they said that they don't know if it's the software or if it's the hardware. And that I simply have to wait until they know.
    I'm just wondering. Is there anyone out there who's heard anything about solving any problems like these? Perhaps and update to 5.0.1 ? Please let me know, I would appreciate it very much!

    They said that it wasn't them, they contacted Apple and they were aware of the problem. But still Apple didn't know if it was hardware of software problems.

    I can't send messages with mail 6.0 of mountain lion, because I can't desactivate the option SSL (Secure sockets Layers); it is locked

    Hi, i am having the same problem. this is what i have noticed.
    I have 2 x imac's and 2 x macbook air's
    i upgraded the 2 macbook air's and 1 of the imac's to Mountain Lion, all these have problems acessing sites that require you to login .
    the one remaining imac is still running lion and works perfect.
    i am using a dlink router with DD-WRT firmware, i tested teathering from my iphone and i can log into websites fine using the newly upgraded mac's.
    It's not a wireless issue as my imac is using an ethernet connection.
    is there a compatibility issue with some routers.

  • Updated my software and now I can't send messages from my iphone

    I just updated the software for my iphone and ipad. For some reason, I can't send messages from my iphone anymore, and I can send them from my ipad. How do I turn the iphone messenger back on?
    Thanks!

    After researching the problem on this board, I turned my cell phone off, and waited 5 minutes. When I restarted it, everything worked! Thanks

  • HT3529 On ipad3, wifi only, how can I send messages to non iOS users?

    On ipad3, wifi only, how can I send messages to non iOS users?
    I have MacBook, and iPhone 4 as well

    Your're wrong on the overly sensitive part. I couldn't care less about android or some other stuff that you are comparing, what i do care about... enough to take the time to explain, is that your view on things colors the choices you make.
    You clearly state your decision making process and the marketing is doing their work on you.
    You think in terms of comparisons and competitors and that will always get you. The truth is, I'm glad Apple finally focused on how "something makes you feel" with iOS 7. There is so much truth in that one sentence!
    There is so much noise out there about screen size, n core processors and price comparisons you can never get a good feel of what the product really is. By the time you figure out you were taken on a marketing hike, a new model comes out and the story starts all over again. (think of the nokia 40 megapixel camera, or the quad core samsung, those are exagerations to impress the consumer) Imagine the size of the jpg's on that phone, all those megapixels with the quality of a phone camera, ridiculous. Soon we will have 12-core phones with 7 inch screens, and people being led into thinking you can do everything on it, "one thing to rule them all", buy now! I saw a woman on the metro the other day with a 6' phone, I swear the thing was almost half the size of her head.
    It's almost 2014 and you are complaining you can't send sms(which is a 25 year old technology by the way) with this new device. All your friends are using outdated tech and because you want to talk to them you want outdated tech too. Sms is insecure, easily snooped upon and recorded, the carrier charges for it and charges more for international sms, and so on... and on... internet chat has been free since the 1990s and it's about time it got free on our phones too.
    Just forget about it. Enjoy other people taking the decisions, you can't take yourself, for you. Trust them, see if it fits, care about life, act emotionally when you "feel" like it. You deserve that, you are human, take the feeling home with you, share it with others.
    Who cares if it's the 2014 edition or quad core... I gave my old iPad 3 to my grandmother so I could call her on Facetime. I bought the iPad Air on a whim, I just "felt" I wanted it. After a couple of weeks she thought about asking me if she could call my brother in the UK too, and how much it would cost. I said it was free, and she looked at me in disbelief. She is now calling my brother weekly by herself... she is 78. Can you imagine that... all I did is give her my "old" iPad.
    Buying the iPad Air was the single best decision of my life, not because of the size or the weight or even iOS 7 (i do enjoy them by the way) but because it made me give my old iPad to my grandmother.
    She doesn't even understand how it works, I figured it would be too much useless stuff to mention... it just does! Here put your finger here and here, then tap the name... wait for him to answer. Unbelievable!!!
    PS. I figured the best gift I can make is give my old Apple devices to people who would never in a million years buy one for themselves. You see them in shops, they are our mothers and friends... they look at the huge prices and they would never give that much to themselves, they feel they don't deserve it. They gave me money to buy all the useless cr@p I ever wanted in my youth, the least I could do is gift them my "old tech" to enrich their lives. Going to buy a 5S soon and give my 4S to someone for free, but it's going to be someone I care deeply about, deeply enough to change their lives.

  • I can't send messages but I can receive them

    I can't send messages but I can receive them, is it an iOS 7.0.3 issue or Verizon Wireless? Also not receiving data

    Hey Bonaccio,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are experiencing issues with Messages on your iPhone 5. The following resource may help to resolve your issue:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2755
    I also understand you are experiencing issues with your cellular data connection. These two issues may be related, so definitely give the steps in this article a go:
    iPhone: Troubleshooting a cellular data connection
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3780
    Follow the instructions below for assistance with troubleshooting cellular data issues on your iPhone. After performing each step, please test to see if the issue is resolved.
    1. Toggle airplane mode: Tap Settings, turn airplane mode on, wait three seconds, and then turn off again.
    2. Restart your iPhone.
    3. Ensure that your software is up to date:
              - Check for a Carrier Settings Update. Tap Settings > General > About.
              - Check for an iOS Software Update. Tap Settings > General > Software Update. Note: Some updates may require a Wi-Fi connection.
    4. Remove the SIM Card and reinsert it. Allow the iPhone to acquire the network again.
    5. If your SIM card has SIM PIN enabled, try toggling it off: Tap Settings > Phone > SIM PIN.
    6. Try another location. If a different location works, but the original location still does not, contact your carrier to report the issue.
    7. Reset network settings: Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings.
    8. Restore the iPhone as new.
    9. Contact your carrier to:
              - Verify that the iPhone is properly set up on the account with the appropriate, current data plan.
              - Verify that there are no account-related blocks.
              - Find out if there are specific error messages in the carrier logs that could help determine why the issue is occurring.
    If none of the above steps resolves the issue, contact your carrier, make an appointment at an Apple Retail Store, or contact AppleCare to troubleshoot further.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • I can send messages to one of my contacts on my iPhone but not on my iPad. Why?

    I can send messages to one of my contacts on my iPhone but not on my iPad. Why?

    Does the contact you are sending the message to use an iPhone?
    The iPhone will send and receive both iMessages and Text messages (SMS).
    The iPad will only send and receive iMessages.
    iPads cannot receive SMS text messages.

  • Can't send message on AT&T - won't connect to server. Anyone else having this issue?

    All of a sudden I can't send messages on my AT&T account. I get a message that Thunderbird cannot connect to server (STMP). Called AT&T and they verified all the settings; I can access my email account on Apple Mail and through Yahoo (AT&T's email provider) yet I cannot send messages on Thunderbird. I can receive but not send.
    I did try deleting the account and re-establishing it however that did not help. Anybody else have this issue?
