I have an iphone 3gs and my girlfriend has an iphone 4s. I am unable to send her imessages but able to send imessages to other iphone users! Any answers?

Send a message from the 3GS to the 4S... once sent, tape the bubble and an option should be prompted to send as iMessage... give that a try and see if it forces things back over.
Also, confirm the contact settings are accurrate.

  • I have a iPhone 3GS and my husband has the iPhone 4 , both phones with updated current . We added iMessage to them at first it was great, now I don't get half the texts my husbands send and when I send him a text message it will come up from my email???

    I have a iPhone 3GS and my husband has an iPhone 4, both phones are updated. We added iMessage the them both and at first it was great, the messages appear in the text messages under the phone contacts and when I send a text message it will either be a green message  or a blue one for (iMessage) depending on the signal.  Now when my husband sends a text message to me I don't get them all or some days none. When I send him a text message he gets them from my email address. I cannot send him a standard text anymore my phone only wants to iMessage, so if the signal is not right it just sits there undelivered???
    I also have a friend who that we regularly texted each other, for the past 4 months I can receive her texts but she never gets mine? And I have tried countless times, now iv given up trying and I don't use texting to either, but everyone else no problem.

    You and your husband can share a store account and still have seperate iCloud accounts for your contacts, bookmarks and stuff like that.  Click here for instructions to make an apple account without entering a credit card.  Make sure you use a different email address for each apple account. 
    Set up your iPhone/iPad whatever using the new account for iCloud.  Then go into settings/store and sign in with your purchasing account, you may need to sign out of the other account.  To the best of my knowledge, your household is allowed to share purchased legally, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
    Once you each have your own devices set to your own accounts you can set them to backup to that account and it will keep all your contacts seperate.

  • I dropped my iphone 3gs and the screen has gone blank now showing a white screen with no icons can anyone advise me how to fix it?

    I dropped my iphone 3gs and the screen has gone blank now showing a white screen with no icons can anyone advise me how to fix it?

    Tim is correct.
    But, first step with 3GS white screen and most iPhone problems is Reset, hold both home and power buttons until iPhone begins to restart itself, usually about 10 seconds of holding both buttons. If still white screen.
    Next step would be Restore the iPhone Firmware with iTunes on your computer. If still white screen.
    Next step would be to follow Tim's advice, if you had not already.

  • Hello I have an iPhone 3GS and I forgot my password so I restored it, it was successfully restored but while following the steps when I connected to itunes it says Disconnect and insert SIM card, but there is SIM card in it (please help me)

    The SIM card already in it is international

    If the phone was hacked, you can't get help here.  It would not necessarily have to have been hacked.  Legitimately unlocked iPhones are available from Apple in the U.S. and AT&T (the only US GSM carrier who ever carried the 3GS) offers unlocking.
    Try a replacement SIM from your carrier.

  • I have iTunes 10.5 and a 4g iPod touch. WHen I upgraded to 5.01, my photos are not all in the correct folders. Any ideas?

    When I load my photos on my 4g ipod touch with iOS 5.01, the photos are there but not all in the correct folders. How can I correct that?

    I spent last week looking for a solution to that little yellow "!" needle haystack....
    It is probably buried where nothing can touch or change it other than what I resorted to and would have saved time, clean install after I made sure to have two backup sets: Windows Easy Transfer plus Paragon clone OS and partitions to drive. Had to spend a full day reinstalling, updates, etc. Careful not to bring back any prefs or data that might be corrupt or wrong.
    10.5 and iOS 5 on new iPod 4G works much better though and as they should and no issues like I had with AMS or other services or needing to restart first before launching iTunes.

  • TS2570 Still cant access my computer, followed instructions to perform a safe boot and last line of script it shows: BootCacheControl: Unable to open /Var/db/BootCache.playlist:2 No such file or directory. Any idea?

    Brand new Mac Book Pro
    Purchased in Mexico's Department store Liverpool on June 20th 2012
    Purchased Memory upgade to 8Gb, on june 27th, at Apple Store Memorial City, Houston
    Upgraded memory from 4Gb to 8Gb on June 28th.
    Tried to write on my external HD (previously written on a windows based PC) with no success.
    Upon reccomendation from a Mac assistant, copied all my external HD contents into my Mac Hard drive.
    Then formatted my external HD and copied back all my information to it.
    deleted all the  information from my MacBook Pro HD.
    Attempted to repeat the same operation with another external HD, but got a message saying there was not enough epace on the computer HD (even though I have a 750Gb Hard Drive.
    Looked in the trash bin and there it was, all the information previously deleted..
    Could not empty the trash bin, although I got a message asking me to safely delete all the information from the trash bin,
    Could not get enough space released, after several attpempts the trash bin was finally emptied.
    All happy getting acquainted with my new MacBook Pro. Two days later, got a gray screen and not able to start the computer.
    Looking in to Mac support I found article http://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570 and followed instructions to perform a safe boot:
    "Perform a Safe Boot
    Simply performing the Safe Boot may resolve this issue.
    Shut down your Mac. If necessary, hold your Mac's power button for several seconds to force it to power down.
    Start your Mac, then immediately hold the Shift key. This performs a Safe Boot. Advanced tip: If you want to
    see the status of a Safe Boot as it progresses, you can hold Shift-Command-V during start up (instead of just Shift).
    Note: A Safe Boot takes longer than a typical start up because it includes a disk check and other operations.
    The following is the script that appears on the screen upon safe boot. and halt after the last line.

  • Dual 1.8 G5 won't boot, first aid on disk utility failed, and the led blinks three times. I've tried the hairdryer trick but it only works for a short time. Any ideas if I can save it?

    I'm starting to feel like there is no hope for my G5. I've updated the os, backed everything up, used the hair dryer and switched out the ram. Still no improvements. I'm just wondering now whether it could be the disk or the logic board.

    I guess if it were me I'd try hotter/longer, then never allow it to Sleep except for the Monitor, & set Processor to Highest Energy Saver>Options tab.
    If you still want a G5, they've been getting cheaper on eBay & such, here's a 1.8 with bad PSU FOR $85+...

  • HT1386 I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S).  I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone.  But not sure how to do that.

    I have an older iPhone (3gs) and need to upgrade to a newer phone (4S).  I need to get my NOTES, CALENDAR, CONTACTS, PICTURES, etc backed up on iTunes so I can get that data loaded onto the new phone.  But not sure how to do that.  When I open iTunes it has a button that say "Back Up iPhone", but I'm not sure what that does.  When I go into the sync options it say I have another user account and asks me if I want to merge of replace. I'm assuming it's trying to tell me I have an older iTunes Library, but don't know that.  Geez, maybe people over 60 shouldn't have iPhones, iTunes just bafles me.

  • I have an iphone 3GS and I have upgraded it to iOS 6. Since then it doesn't work properly. Every now and then it has been restarting by itself and requiring restore. When I connect it to itunes it restarts again and again. Is there any solution?

    I have an iphone 3GS and I have upgraded it to iOS 6. Since then it doesn't work properly.
    Every now and then it has been restarting by itself and requiring restore. When I connect it to itunes it restarts again and again without letting me take any action. Is there any solution?

    Hey, There are afew things you can try.
    - Simply turn your phone off and back on again
    - Hold down your home button and your lock button and let goes as soon as the screen goes black (Phone will power down) - Then turn on your phone and hey presto!
    - Back up your iPhone to your PC, then restore it..
    this ones last cause I think you may have tried it already..
    - Close all open applications
    Hope this helps!

  • HT4972 I tried to update my old iPhone 3GS and is giving me a message that it can be activated. This is my old phone and it shouldn't have a line but I Still like to use it as an iPod. What can I do.

    I tried to update my old iPhone 3GS and is giving me a message that it can be activated. This is my old phone and it shouldn't have a line but I Still like to use it as an iPod. What can I do.

    Activation issues are almost always the result of a device that has been hacked or jailbroken. If that is the case, no support can be provided here.

  • HT4314 Hello, I have an Iphone 3GS and can't connect to Game Center.  It recognizes my apple ID account, states it was never used with Game Center. Then asks for country, birthdate, then returns to ask country again, then birthdate, and returns to the loo

    Hello, I have an Iphone 3GS and can't connect to Game Center.  It recognizes my apple ID account, states it was never used with Game Center. Then asks for country, birthdate, then returns to ask country again, then birthdate, and returns to the loop. Never ends the loop unless I cancel the setup process.  I have restored the iphone to the factory settings and restored the backup, but did not work. Any suggestions on what can be the problem? thank you.

    I just read another post that says you can go into a game that allows for multiple players and utalizes game center and enter your account information that way.  I haven't tried it yet, but it seems to work for others that had this issue.

  • I have an iPhone 3GS and in the past 2 days I've gotten 5 emails saying that someone has logged in to my apple ID from an iphone 3gs using iMessage...

    So, yes I do have an iPhone 3gs and yes it might be me who logs in bla bla bla, point is... I have not used iMessage as I don't know how to. Also, I have not logged into my Apple ID account through it as I have not been asked to log in, nor have I downloaded any Apps lately that would require me to put my login info into my phone.
    I tried fixing this yesterday by changing my password, which I did, but I keep getting said emails... how can I stop those emails or how can I make it so that I don't log into iMessage (whatever that is).
    I've texted a couple of friends since yesterday, but all of them have standard non-smart-phones...
    Can anyone help please?
    Thanks

    Thanks a lot!
    Ok so... iMessages sole purpose is to be a sort of "messenger" between iOS products right? There's nothing more to it? By that I mean... now that I turned it off, will it have any repercussions on any other apps or functions in my iPhone?

    iOS 5.0.1 has been out for a couple months, if not longer. 
    There was no delay in releasing it in any country.
    So what is your issue?
