Why i cant use facebook on my iphone 3gs

why i cant use facebook on my iphone 3gs?

If you want to use the Facebook app and you don't have an older version saved in your iTunes library, then you won't be able to download it on that device. Either use Safari to access Facebook or get a device that can run iOS 7 and install Facebook.

I can't send or receive a text using imessage from my iphone to an ipad

The Ipdas are using IOS 6 and can text to other iphones by phone number or apple id. I have tried hard resets and did a full restore and still no success. I am using IOS 6.0.1 and have had the phone checked at our local Apple dealer and I took it to the local ATT store to be sure my phone plan was not an issue.

Why won't iMessage send from my iPad to a contact who has an iPhone and uses iMessage on her iPhone?

Sometimes when I'm using my iPad and I want to send a message via iMessage it won't let me. This happens even when I know that the recipient has an iPhone and uses the iMessage app on her iPhone. Why is that? I can use iMessage from my iPhone and it will go to her iPhone. Why can't it work from my iPad.?

Need Help Understanding How To Use iMessage Between Two iPhones

I have an iPhone 4 and my wife an iPhone 3GS. We both have iOS 5, but I have discovered something about iMessage I need to make sure I understand correctly. As I understand it iMessage can send text even if our voice carrier service is unavailable. I tend to loose signal inside the building I work in. I usually can get texts in and out, but sometimes not. But in testing the two phones sending iMessages, I've noticed is that if I have one of the phones with iMessage turned on and the other with iMessage turned off, the two phones will not be able to exchange text. Is that how it's supposed to work? Even though one of these phones can receive an iMessage doesn't mean the other one send one back. Can't the system detect when one phone is connected and another one not, and the one that is not gets sent SMS messages instead? I don't want to try to send my wife an iMessage because I can't get a voice signal in my building, but her have iMessages turned off and not able to get any messages from me, iMessage or SMS. I guess I need help better understanding how this actually works between the two phones so I can always get texts back and forth between my wife and I. My other misgiving is that this iMessage thing consumes my data limit. My wife gets unlimited because she had her phone before the limits were imposed, but I got on board after, so I am hesitant to use iMessage all the time because of it. I have no intention to send picture mail through iMessage, but the thing is if I wanted to switch to SMS to send picture mail to save data, but my wife's phone is set to iMessage, she won't get it. If this is how this thing is supposed to work, I'm not really impressed. Some insight would be appreciated

I think you are making this way too complicated. Why are you turning iMessage off? If you are at your office connect to the WiFi there and send your wife messages that way (unless your office is blocking the port iMessage uses). When possible the two phones will use iMessage but will revert to SMS is iMessage is not available if that option is set that way.
I would not worry about using up your data plan if you have the 2GB, text iMessages are going to be very small and MMS (picture) ones are not very large either. Unless you are sending hundreds of picture iMessages a day you will have a hard time using up your data.
If you are near an Apple Store you should explore signing up for an intro iPhone course and have them run through iMessage options.

I can use iMessage with all iPhone uses except for ONE person. That person can use iMessage with all other users, but not with ME. What's the problem???

I can use iMessage with all other iPhone users that I communicate with, except for ONE person. When I send to that person, it always goes through as a text message. This person can use iMessage with pther people, but when they send me a message, it always goes as a text. Why can we both communicate with other people using iMessage, but not with one another?

Hi Russell,
1) If you have OD set up and "editor" has UID 1111, then when they log in to any machine that's bound to OD as editor, they will get UID 1111. Therefore, there won't be any of these permission errors. This is typically the recommended approach.
2) I assume you mean "You'd prefer to not using open directory?" Whatever the case, OD isn't mandatory with Xsan -- it's just that with multiple user accounts, managing them centrally tends to be easier. For 3 or 4 accounts and 3 or 4 machines maybe it's no big deal. If you go larger, it could get a lot more complicated. That said, if you set it up such that each machine has the exact same set of users (as you said, Mary = UID 502, Fred = UID 503, William = UID 504), then you can do what you want. Mary can log in from multiple machines at the same time, and in general you won't have permissions problems. Of course, if you try and read and write the same file from multiple workstations at the same time, you will get file locking issues, which will prohibit somebody from successfully writing the file.
File locking issues are different from general permissions errors. The former basically says "hey, someone else is editing this file. Therefore I won't let you edit it right now... you can read it if you want though." Permissions means somebody saves it, and Xsan thinks you saved it and own the file, when you really don't.

Charged for using iMessage with another iPhone

Why did I get charged for
Using iMessage and texting another iPhone!

was the other iPhone on the iOS 5? iMessages only works on latest iOS, so when you text an older phone it won't be free.
Also, even if you have iMessage, the color coding is what indicates if it will be an iMessage or an TXT Message.
iMessage = Blue
TXT Message = Green
