  • Why does my phone not always send or receive iMessages from certain iPhones?

    My phone doesn't receive or send iMessages from a couple contacts I have and with other numbers it receives fine but sends as a regular text. I've played with all the settings but nothing is working

    Aswell as needing an internet connection both devices need to be running iOS5. They also need to have imessage turned on withing settings>messages. If neither of the above is true then it wont work simple as.

  • I am having issues sending and receiving group texts on my iphone 5c

    I am having issues sending and receiving group texts on iphone 5c.  I may get texts only from the sender or a few of the recipients, but not all.   I spoken to Apple.  They are working on the problem but it has been almost two months + and the problem seems to be getting worse.  Any one have this issue?

        ajspurr, sorry to hear that you're still having some troubles here, but we want to figure this out. If you have already cleared the application cache and data and it's still giving you an issue, we may want to reset the device. By resetting the device we can ensure there are no underlying software issues. If you have the device backed up you can take a look here to see how to reset the device http://vz.to/1ucTCmE. Give that a try and keep us posted.

  • Difficulties sending and receiving iMessages

    Is anyone else having difficulties sending and receiving iMessages since installing IOS 7?  Mine just keep saying "sending..."  In the end I am having to send them as text messages to get them through. 
    I had hoped the recent fix would resolve the issue, but it hasn't.  Text messages seem to be ok, the problem is with iMessage.
    Any suggestions on how to over come this?
    Many thanks
    SLC

    It seems that Apple is aware of the issue and working already on a fix for that that should be released "immediately"
    Sources: WSJ and http://www.redmondpie.com/ios-7.0.3-update-on-its-way-to-fix-ios-7-imessage-issu e/
    Hopefully we won't have to wait too long this time.

  • Is anyone having issues sending and receiving downloads with messages?

    I downloaded messages. But I'm having troubles sending and receiving downloads from others.
    My friend has messages as well and we can send small files, like mp3. But when I tried to send him a movie that's 500mb it says that the file is too big.
    When I get incoming files to download (doesn't matter if the file is small or large), I click it and my aim automatically logs me off and then back on. So I can't even accept incoming downloads. Anyone have any fixes?

    Hi,
    I have one other thread where the person says there Login to AIM gets booted off when they try to accept Files in Messages beta.
    Personally I have one Jabber Buddy who I cannot get Files from but they can send me AIM File Transfers.
    I need to test with other Jabber Buddies to check this further myself.  However I am not booted Off line.
    I have sent Picture files in line and as free standing File transfers over AIM before, the largest probably being about 50Mb at a max.
    I certainly have not sent a movie that big (I have sent smaller ones)
    I have not come across a Limit before.
    What do you see if you have the File Transfer window Open as well ?
    This tends to show the sideways barbershop pole and a second downward arrow to start the download from there.
    Mine fails when I click the arrow in the File Transfer window and until then it says Waiting.
    The other thread has also tried Auto Accept with no luck.
    At present I have not answers to this.
    We have not tried Zipped files in the other thread.

    I am haveing trouble sending and recieveing pictures on my iphone....any suggestions?

    On each devoce Look at
    Settings > Messages > Send and receive from
    Make sure these settings are correct.
    Then look at MMS in the same area. Male sure MMS is turned on and check to ensure your carrier included MMS in your cellular plan.

  • My messages are not going through or coming in from other iOS devices.  Having to send and receive in SMS.  What is up?

    My messages are not going through or coming in from other iOS devices.  Having to send and receive in SMS.  What is up?  Anyone else having these issues?

    There's an article that Apple has acknowledged this issue. They recommend turning off imessages, reset all settings and then reactivate imessages.
    If that doesn't work, you may just have to wait until they release an update, which should be pretty soon.

  • Having trouble maintaining remote desktop connection with Mavericks.  What is this about needing RDC 3.7.1 with Mavericks.  I downloaded RDC 3.7.1 but it does not replace RDC 2.1.0 previously installed.

    Lucky you, it did not work for many users (which as it should be) so MS produced a new version, for ML and Mavericks.
    It's in the App Store, for free.
    FYI, I assume that you were attempting to post a picture, no one can see it (except maybe you) because it is on your computer rather than the forum server.

    Use the small camera icon in the editor toolbar to post it.
    It also looks like you attempted to use Apple Remote Desktop, which does not do Windows.

  • IOS 8 - send and receive iMessages

    With iOS 7, I used to be able to receive iMessages at two phone numbers. There was an option under iMessage - Send and Receive.  I used that to monitor my son's messages. Now with iOS 8, I can only see my phone number under Send and Receive, and some email addresses, other phone lines under the same iCloud account are not listed anymore. Does anybody know how to fix that? Thank you very much.

    go to settings, general, reset, reset all settings. this causes the phone to reset and finishes installing certain iOS 8 features in iMessage like self destruct, etc. and will fix any glitches you're having.  it has worked for myself and everyone else I have shared it with.
