I iphone 4 is not sending texts to my friends and family with iphones. The blue messages are not going through. My green messages are going through. Help!

My Ipone is not sending text messages. i can recieve the messages, but my replies are not being sent.. this seems to only be an issue to sendin to other iphones. The blue messages are not being sent. if the box is green, the meessage is sent.this seems to ahve started after i down;oaded the latest operating system. HELP!!

Welcome to the Verizon family, ivpacks! I regret to learn that your alarms didn't work. I also regret that there is a problem with the messages. Have you tried the alarm again? Does it still not work? For instance, just set the alarm for a couple of minutes away to ensure that the alarm goes off.
When you send a text, do you get an error? If you power the phone off/on, do the messages send? This particular issue is expecting a software update to resolve the issue with texts and picture messages.
I believe that you have chosen a great device, but keep in mind that there is a 14 day exchange period. If you exchange for the same make/model, you will not pay the restocking fee.
If you do exchange for a different make/model, there is a $35.00 restocking fee.

So via imessage?
Do you have MMS enabled and are you provisioned by your phone carrier to use MMS?
iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
If you're provisioned, then close out of the message app, double tap the home button and completely close out of the app.
Then do a reset, no data loss, hold down the home/sleep button together until you see the apple logo and then release, then wait for the phone to boot back up. then check if you can send photos via message.

My iphone 4 has turned off and will not turn back it wont chrge and when plugged into the computer it is not recognising it

can someone tell me how i can get my oiphone 4 to turn back on or has any idea what this problem is

Hi gillybabe82,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities.
Take a look at the article linked below, it provides a lot of great suggestions and will help you solve the iPhone power issue that you described.
iPhone: Hardware troubleshooting
Will not turn on, will not turn on unless connected to power, or unexpected power off
Verify that the Sleep/Wake button functions. If it does not function, inspect it for signs of damage. If the button is damaged or is not functioning when pressed, seek service.
Check if a Liquid Contact Indicator (LCI) is activated or there are signs of corrosion. Learn about LCIs and corrosion.
Connect the iPhone to the iPhone's USB power adapter and let it charge for at least ten minutes.
After at least 30 minutes, if:
The home screen appears: The iPhone should be working. Update to the latest version of iOS if necessary. Continue charging it until it is completely charged and you see this battery icon in the upper-right corner of the screen . Then unplug the phone from power. If it immediately turns off, seek service.
The low-battery image appears, even after the phone has charged for at least 20 minutes: See "iPhone displays the low-battery image and is unresponsive" symptom in this article.
Something other than the Home screen or Low Battery image appears, continue with this article for further troubleshooting steps.
If the iPhone did not turn on, reset it while connected to the iPhone USB power adapter.
If the display turns on, go to step 4.
If the display remains black, go to next step.
Connect the iPhone to a computer and open iTunes. If iTunes recognizes the iPhone and indicates that it is in recovery mode, attempt to restore the iPhone. If the iPhone doesn't appear in iTunes or if you have difficulties in restoring the iPhone, see this article for further assistance.
If restoring the iPhone resolved the issue, go to step 4. If restoring the iPhone did not solve the issue, seek service.
My issue is still not resolved. What do I do next?
Contact Apple Support.
I hope this helps.

Warped text in all programs and lists out of the blue

Anyone else having issues with text suddenly going wonky - skewed and warped - mail, word, menus, finder, etc, etc, etc
annoying!

Boot into safe mode (restart holding down SHIFT key). If KP, then most likely hardware related. Run the Apple Hardware Test suite, extended tests at least twice, followed by Rember. See

HT6154 I need to Unregister my phone number with Apple I am not getting texts to my new Galaxy from other Iphones

I just switched from IPhone to Samsung galaxy. now all my friends and familiy with Iphones that text me are not going through. How do I fix this

Turn off iMessage on your old iPhone.
Contact Apple Support at 1-800-MYAPPLE and request the Account Security team. They can send a text message to your new device that is using the old phone number, and can unregister your phone number from your Apple ID/iMessage.

My iPhone 4 is sending texts from my email!! Error message near phone number!

My iPhone 4 is sending texts from my email and when I go into the settings to fix this it says "Error" next to my phone number and will not allow me to select it to send/receive texts from. So people are telling me they are texting me but I have not received them and they are telling me that I am sending mesages from my email. Please Help!

Open Settings.
Go to Messages > Send & Receive.
Select or unselect as you please.
Tip: You can un-check your emails if you don't want to send or receive using your email.

Have a Friends and Family plan. I have unlimited data and want to keep it. Questions on what I can and can not do with account changes.

Ok,
So I am on Friends and Family 2000minutes and unlimited Text.
4 phones.
My phone has Unlimited Data and Hotspot
Other 3 do not have any data.
I am curious what I can do and can't do that will keep keep the plan as is and not force things to share everything.
I am allowed to have 5 phones under this plan. I am curious about adding and deleting phones.
I did try and add a 5th phone. When I tried to activate a 5th phone online it would not let me do it. Tried to get me to change plans.
Here are a few scenarios that I see coming up in the future.
I would like to add a 5th phone. My father has an account and I would like to roll him into my plan instead of his own account. I have already done this once before many years ago with no problem with 2 of the lines that I currently have. Is this possible or is that enough to trigger the move share everything scenario.
Second. how about removing a line from my plan?
One of my numbers is for an 18YO that wants to be more independent and have their own account. Can I down the road either transfer that line and number to its own account which would be share everything (I do understand that). Or can I delete that line from the account without triggering the share everything scenario?
Also it seems when I look online I can change data plans currently three phones are on data block. Can I actually change them to a data plan within the Friends and family or is the Share everything scenario triggered. What about if I change them to a smart phone from their basic/feature phone. I know I can't get unlimited data but can I still get them on my friends and family tiered data plan?
What is up.
Thank You

yes to everything; you can add a line (up to 5 total for Family Share), drop a line, upgrade a basic line to a smartphone (and then add a tiered data plan) and stay on your current calling plan ... it may be easier done in your local Corporate Verizon store, though ... just be sure they don't try to switch you to Share Everything if that's not what you want

With OS 7 My iPhone 4s will not send texts, how do I fix it?

Since upgrading to OS7 my iPhone will not send texts to friend with iPhones how do I fix this? I have turned on SMS and restarted the phone.

This has been discussed time and again here on the forums. Please use the search function before posting.
A phone reset or going to Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings resolves the issue.
iOS7.0.3 will be available next week that resolves this issue.

Iphone 5 receives text messages but will not send text messages

Since yesterday my boyfriends iphone 5 will not send text messages. He can receive them but when he goes to reply it doesnt work. He has turned his phone off and on and that seems to work for awhile but then the same problem happens again where he cannot send a text message. Was wondering if there was any way in fixing this or why his phone is all of a sudden doing this.

So I should update this. The phone actually loses service, I have reset the network connection as well as I have updated the carrier settings and the phone is still losing service randomly. I called the carrier and they told me there is nothhing they can do unless we bring the phone in, they believe it could be the sim card because everything on their end looks to be fine. So I'll be going to the carrier store this evening to see if they can fix the problem if not then I will be going to the apple store. Do hope this problem gets fixed soon.

My iphone 5 will not send texts by imessage

Just last week, my iphone 5 will not send text messages to other iphones or ipads.

I believe there have been some sporadic problems with iMessage.

Have you tried logging out of your Apple ID with iMessage followed by logging back in?

Does anyone have a clear solution as to why my new iPhone will not send text messages to some numbers.

Does anyone have a clear solution as to why my new iPhone 5 will not send text messages to some numbers?

I had problems the first few days with text messaging on my new cell. I checked my new contract service thru AT&T online, and it turned out the guy who set up my phone didn't sign me up for the unlimited texting I told him I HAD to have! I just had to add texting back into my contract.....problem solved. I hope your problem is solved this easily.

Why will my Iphone 5 not send texts after update to OS7?

After upgrading to OS7 for the Iphone 5 stop sending texts. It indicates they send but they do not. I put the sim card in another Iphone still running OS6 and the messages send.

I'm having the same problem. 90% of my texts aren't being sent. This was never a problem before I updated to iOS7. Is there no solution for this?

Iphone4 does not send texts/imessage properly.

I've had this iphone for 18 months and it does not send texts/imessages properly. The iphone will be sending texts completely fine and it will have good 3G connection but then out of nowhere the phone will take over 20 minutes to send texts/imessages. Phone connection is out of the question. it does this on and off very frequently. It started doing it very rarely but its been doing it more and more often.
