I have 4 bars on my phone in the house but cannot send or receive texts.

The last few days I've had trouble sending and receiving texts even though I have between 3 and 4 bars. I have also just tried logging into my account and it told me it didn't recognise my email (it hasn't changed for years) so I go to register and it tells me there is already an account.

Hi
What type of device are you using?
Also are you connected to Wi-Fi at the time?
If you click the Forgotten Details link on My Account and follow the steps. If this doesn't work you would need to Contact Us so customer services can reset your My Account.
Thanks.

Cannot send or receive texts on 2/3 of the S4s we have.

Hello,
Me, my mom, and my dad all have Galaxy S4s. Text messaging has been working great for me, but today my dad came to me and told me his text messages kept failing when he tried to send them.
I tried sending him texts from my phone and found that they wouldn't go through. My mother's phone is the same way: Cannot send or receive.
I've tried going to: Settings/Applications Manager/All/Messaging/Clear Data/Phone Restart. This also brought no results. At this point I have no idea how to get it working. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

There are no issues with making and receiving calls at this time. We changed our phone plan with the purchase of the S4s. They both kept their old numbers and did not have texting until switching plans.
And about the test message, no I've tried. It always just says, "Failed." With the error code: SMS Org.D.

Is there any chance that you must have it in the package of your provider as an option?

Correct. That is how it works.

I cannot send or receive text messages from other iPhone users. I don't get an error I just don't receive any messages and the other users do not receive mine.

Reset the devices: Hold down the home button along with the sleep/wake button until you see the apple, then let go.

TS2755 Ever since I updated my phone to iOS 7 I cannot send or receive iMessages. How can I fix this

I updated my iPhone 4 a few weeks ago to iOS 7. Ever since I did that I cannot send or receive iMessages. How can I fix this???

Try powering the iPhone off and back on. If that doesn't help, go to Settings -> General -> Reset and reset the Network Settings. Reports are that one of those two steps have cured problems with iMessages for many people.

I have a 3gs and just upgraded to ios5 but cannot send/receive mms

Hi all.
I just got a new 3gs and upgraded it to ios5. It works great, but I cannot send or receive mms. The camera button that shows up when sending a message is grayed out and I cannot touch it. I don't know what to do in order to fix this issue.
Thanks

TS2755 How come I cannot send or receive text messages from one of my contacts yet I can call the person from teh same number?

I have tried to send a text message to one of my contacts but it is never received and I am told they have sent me texts that I have never received. We both have the correct tel numbers in the contact info. The message shows as sent in green. Any ideas why or how to fix this. I already have the most up to date iOS in the phone (iPhone 5).

Contact your carrier. SMS messaging is completely reliant on the carrier.

I deregistered my phone number from imessage but am still not receiving texts on my android phone

I went the the deregistration process. This improved the annoyance but is still not fully resolved. I still am not getting texts in certain group message settings. The problem seems to be in group texts where everyone else is using imessage except me.

Hello Laurie33,
This can be accomplished by deactivating iMessage.
To deregister your phone number, tap Settings > Messages and turn iMessage off.
If you can't deactivate iMessage after you perform the steps above or you can't access the iPhone, please contact Apple Support.
iOS: Deactivating iMessage

If you are using imessages that only works across other ios devices. You cant use it to text or recieve from non ios devices.

Tablet added, own phone number - can you send and receive text msgs ?

I got the G Pad 8.3" let tablet and it was added as an extra line, so it was given a phone number. Was wondering, since it does have it's own phone number, is it possible to send and receive texts on it using the phone number provided ? I tried just sending a text to that number, but the tablet never received it. Since it does have it's own phone number tho, is there anyway to do this ?

donintn,
That is a very interesting question! While it does have its own phone number, texting & voice calls can not be enabled for tablet devices. You can, however, use apps like Verizon Messages to send texts back & forth using the phone number for any one of your regular phone lines. There are also 3rd party apps that will give you the ability to text using thier data enabled texts. View your app options in your Google Play store.
