  • Trying to send txt message says they don't have iMessage setup.

    I tried to send a text message to a non apple device on my iPad. Will not let has name highlighted in pink with red ! Saying they don't have iMessage setup which they can't what do I do to send the a message?

    Imessage falls back to SMS when it tries to send messages to non apple devices. That's because iMessage is an iOS only feature. Since your ipad doesn't have a phone number, it won't send it out to a non iOS device.
    You would have to download a third party app that allows you to send text messages over data (I do believe some messangers let you do that as well as skype?)

  • I don't have safari on my ipad, restored it but it still isn't there

    i don't have safari on my ipad, restored it but it still isn't there

    Not possible to delete any of the apps included with iOS.
    If you have Restrictions enabled on your iPad, check if Safari is turned on as a restriction which will prevent the app from appearing.
    If not, the app has been moved. Double check every home page within every folder.

  • I don't have iPhoto on my ipad or iPhone. Apple says these are free but it is $4.99 in the App Store?

    I don't have iPhoto on my ipad or iPhone. Apple says these are free but it is $4.99 in the App Store?

    They are free if you have activated a new iOS 7 compatible device since 1st September 2013. When did you buy and activate your iPad and/or iPhone ? If on or after that date then try logging out of your account on that device by tapping on your id at the bottom of the Featured tab in the App Store app and then log back in and see if it then shows as free on it

    I have Mountain Lion OS but I don't have the Messages app. Why do I still only have iChat?

    HI,
    If iChat was put inside a subsidiary folder of the Applications one then it will not get removed.
    Apple App need to be loose in the Applications Folder or they will not update properly either.
    I have heard of people creating a "Messaging App Folder" and keeping this inside the Applications folder with the consequences listed.

  • When I try to reinstall my Photoshop CS3 I get asked for my P.S. CS4 disk.I don't have a CS4 disk. Why?? Thanks! Tom

    This usually happens when you had/ have a newer Adobe product like a trial on the system and it points to updated install components. You will have to uninstall each and every bit of Adobe software and then reinstall in the proper order. Running the cleaner tool may also be required.

  • HT5312 If I can't remember my security questions, and don't have a rescue email address, why can't I just add a rescue email to my apple ID account without having to contact iTunes Support?

    If I can't remember my security questions, and don't have a rescue email address, why can't I just add a rescue email to my apple ID account without having to contact iTunes Support?

    I verify my identity just by logging in with my password, not being able to add a rescue email address without answering the security questions is just extra hastle and doesn't increase security. No one knows my password so how could they break into my account? I understand having security questions to change your password but not for adding an email address.

  • TS1440 If I don't have my startup discs can I not fix this myself?

    My iMac starts up with a flashing question mark within a folder. I've seen many threads about this issue but my question is, if I don't have my startup discs can I not fix this myself?

    Do you know if you had Firmware Password protection setup?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1352
    It would block usage of all the startup keys, like C, N, T, D, CMD+s, CMD+Option+p+r, CMD +v, Option, and Shift, as well as booting from anything but the Hard Drive.
    Force Removing Password Protection
    1) Add or remove DIMMs to change the total amount of RAM in the computer.
    2) Then, the PRAM must be reset 3 times. (Command + Option + P + R).
