Restart your iPhone. Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPad. To turn iPad back on, press and hold the Sleep/Wake until the Apple logo appears.
Now try the Messages icon.

    Hi,
    In Messages on the Mac do you have the Preferences > Messages section set to "Save History when Conversations are Closed" ?
    This will store all IMs and iMessages in ~/Library/Messages/Archive.
    Use the Finder > Go Menu > Go to Folder and type that path into the Dialogue box that appears. (~/Library/Messages/Archive).
    They are stored in dated folders so some guessing/trail and error will be needed.
    You may find that if this was an iMessage and you  send the person a new message that the whole History with that Contact since you installed Mountain Lion/Started Messages may appear and that it is scrollable the closer you get to the "top" and the top may keep moving until all is on show.

  • TS3274 how come all of a sudden, I cannot send/receive messages, but I can receive e-mails in my Ipad?

    HOW COME I CANNOT /SEND RECEIVE MESSAGES, BUT I CAN RECEIVE EMAIL?

    Sending and receiving messages has absolutely no relation at all to sending and receiving email.
    Your iPad is not a cellular telephone.  It cannot send or receive SMS text messages.  It can only send or receive iMessages, which are messages to/from other Apple devices (only) on a WiFi or a cellular network that supports iMessage.

  • I just purchased a note 3.  Everything works well except I cannot send text messages.  I can receive them, but I get an error message when I try to send them

    Can anyone tell me why I cannot send text messages on my note 3?   I can receive them, but when I attempt to send them I get an error message unable to send . . .  It's a brand new phone.

        Congratulations on your new phone, Nonaleigh.
    We would love to get to the bottom of your message mystery.
    I'm guessing you are getting the error for all messages you attempt to send, is that correct?
    What type of phone did you upgrade from? We ask because if you have switched from an Apple device (e.g., iPhone) to a non-Apple device (e.g., Android, Blackberry, etc.) and previously used the iMessage service, you may experience issues sending/receiving SMS/MMS messages with Apple device users. You need to deactivate the iMessage service within your Apple account to restore normal SMS/MMS functionality.

    My wife recently switched from an iPhone to a Samsung and she can send texts but she can't receive them nor receive emails. Her iPhone has had her info removed and the settings have all been set to default. What else does she need to do to correct this?

  • Why won't my phone send text messages but I can receive them?

    I have the iphone 5 and I updated my phone to the ios7. Within the past few days I have not been able to send text messages as imessages but I can receive them. When I try to send a message it will freeze at 95% and it wont go through. I even have 5 bars and I am connected to wifi when I send them. I reset my network settings but there was no change. Is there a way to fix this? A few of my friends have also expereinced this problem.

    From my original reply, "Why did you change your SIM card?" Did you change carriers, was there a problem with the original SIM, did you change plans?
    The iPhone has no settings for SMS. SMS is a carrier feature, call them back and have them check the provisioning on your account. If this SIM change caused the problem, it has nothing to do with the phone.

  • I blocked a number then unblocked it and now I can't send them text messages but I can call them. What's wrong?

    I blocked a friends number when we fought but now were friends and I unblocked. Why can I still not text him?

    Hi Felicia913,
    Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    Try these steps first if you are not able to send text messages to a specific contact:
    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 re-create the contact from the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.

    Hi and Welcome to the Community!
    I recommend that you attempt to boot into Safe Mode:
    KB17877 How to start a BlackBerry smartphone in Safe Mode
    It may take you multiple attempts to get the ESC key sequence (press/release/hold) correct, so be patient. When successfully into Safe Mode, think carefully...what happened just before this behavior started? A new app? An update? A Theme? Something else? Think carefully as the smallest change could be causal...and attempt to undo whatever that was.
    Good luck and let us know!

  • Help! New iphone 3g not sending/recieving text messages or email!!!

    Hey guys. I just got myself a 3g iphone today and im already havin issues with it. I updated to 3.1.2 right off the bat.
    Well it seems that i can send email, but that seems to be about it. I can not send or recieve text messages. I can recieve email, but it will not notify me when I get a new email. The only way i can find out if i have a new email is by opening the mailbox and waiting for it to refresh.
    Isnt this thing suposed to push my emails and notify me as soon as they are sent? How do i get this and my text messaging working? This is so disapointing since my wife just got a $10 phone that worked flawlesly right out of the box.
    thanks all,
    ---Joe

    First off, Reset your iPhone. Hold down the sleep and home buttons, ignore the off slider, wait for the Apple logo to appear then let the buttons go. After it resets try to send a text message again. If it does not work there is probably an issue with your carrier and you will have to contact them.
    As far as mail, do you have a MobileMe, Yahoo push, GMail push, or Exchange mail account? Because these are the only ones that will Push your mail to the iPhone. If you do have one of these make sure Push is turned on in the Mail settings. If you don't have one of these you can go to the Mail settings and specifying a mail Fetch period.

  • I have an iPhone 4 and my iMessage will not send pictures but I can recieve them.

    I can send it as a text message but I can't send a picture thru iMessage and it just started happening. I have tried resetting the network settings, turning iMessage on and off, turning facetime on and off, turning the network on and off, I turned the phone on and off, I held the lock button and home button then turned it back on, I turned SMS/MMS on and off, I updated my roaming capabilities with Verizon, I deleted the threads of messages and sending different pictures thinking it was the picture itself but nothing has worked.....any suggestions??

    Settings > Messages > Receive At > Apple ID.
    Select your Apple ID and at the menu window that appears, select Sign Out.
    Follow this by signing back in with your Apple ID to see if this makes any difference.

    No, they probably got lost out there somewhere. They're gone.

    iOS 5 handles texts differently than previous versions.  Resetting the network connections helps, but that didn't seem to solve your problem, and neitherdid the simple reset. 
    Try deleting old messages from the messages app, then after clearing up a lot, just do a simple restart of your phone.  If you want to be extra sure, try resetting your network connections again.  I had this same problem.  Your last option would be a complete restore of the phone, but I don't think we'll have to go that far.
