I receive messages (via Message) on my iPad, but NOT my iPhone. What's happening?

Hi all,
I seem to be able to receive Messages on my iPad, but not my iPhone. My iPad doesn't have cellular service, so I'm assuming that I won't be able to get non-Mac-based messages on it...
Using Verizon.
I have an iPhone 5, it's up-to-date. Is there something in Settings I need to change?
Can anyone help?
Thanks,
Eri

I've removed icons from Multitask bar, both devices are completely powered down and off.
Please tell me why this would help? My iPad was at home, my iPhone with me when I messaged my husband. Receiving no response, I tried again and again and got no answer from him.
I come home and find that his responses are all on the iPad.
But I've never had that problem before!
I have to wait until my spouse sends me a message and see...
Thanks,
Eri
ETA: PS I'm not sure about my iCloud settings.

    It's not that you can't use the subject field, but it is very unreliable when I try to use it. Sometimes the message send button will work and sometimes it won't.
    But the biggest reason to turn it off is so that you do not accidentally type your message in the subject field. You can type a subject in that field, but you still have to type the actual message in the space below the subject field.

    They are not text messages, they are iMessages.
    Turn on iMessage on the iPhone.

  • Can sync notes to iPad but not to iPhone with mobile me

    I can sync Notes with my Mobile Me account to my iPad but not to my iPhone. What am I doing wrong?

    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4231
    Notes syncing via IMAP is available for iPhone 4, iPhone 3GS, and iPod touch (3rd and 4th generation). If you have an older device, refer to the device user guide for information about cable syncing as an alternate way to sync Notes.

  • HT4847 I have a lot of room to store photos on my ipad which I use as my computer.  How can I keep saving photos on my ipad but not my iphone?

    I would like to store my photos on my ipad, not my iphone.  I have 64 GB on my ipad, and do not have a computer.  My icloud is full, so I would like to only save photos/videos on my ipad, and not my iphone.  Is this possible?  Or do I have to save them to a computer?

    Did you enable photo stream? if so, that service will sync the photos across your devices. But you can turn it off. If it's on, try going into the iPad settings, iCloud control panel and turn off photo syncing and then see if the photos remain on your iPad only.

  • Album split on iPad but not on iPhone or in iTunes

    I use iTunes Match, and a few albums are split into multiple albums on my iPad, but not in iTunes or on my iPhone. Why would this be different on my iPad when I'm using Match on all of my devices?
    I've tried making changes to the album in iTunes on my computer using Get Info, but since it's already one album there it doesn't seem to make a difference.
    I'm using Mavericks on my computer and iOS 7 on both the iPad and iPhone.

    If the tracks have already been downloaded to the iOS device any changes to ID3 tags won't be visible until you delete the tracks from the device. So give that a try. Also see this web page for more helpful information about ID3 tags: http://samsoft.org.uk/iTunes/grouping.asp

  • TS4002 i get messages to my ipad but not my phone can anyone help

    I have all the settings correct as it has only just started happening, anyone that sends me a text message is only being shown on my ipad and not on my i phone???

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Have you ensured that the settings > messages > send & receive addresses are the same on both devices.

  • Unable to receive messages on a PC but Android Tablet & iPhone OK!

    I would please appreciate help with a Thunderbird ver 31.3.0 problem on my two PC's (Windows 8 PRO 64-BIT and Windows 7 PRO 32-BIT) that prevents me from receiving emails dated 18 December 2014 and onwards. Sending is fine. I can though download the same email dated 17 December 2014 but no more.
    My Android Asus 7" Tablet and iPhone 4 are both able to receive/send emails and are both connected by wireless to my broadband router, the same one to which my PC's are connected. I have tried wireless on my PC's but still does not work.
    Contacted my broadband supplier in the UK (Sky) and went through all the Thunderbird settings which were fine.
    I then installed a GMK UK email account and downloaded emails no problem!
    My suspicion is therefore that there is some form of problem with Thunderbird/Mozilla's systems but not sure.
    Any assistance would be much appreciated.
    Thank you.
    Robert

    What is the account type on both, your tablet and phone - POP or IMAP?

  • TS4268 I am getting IMessages to my ipad but not my iPhone 5

    I am able to send iMessages from my iPhone and iPad and they both sync, however when I get a reply they are just going to my iPad but some do also go to my iPhone 5 too but not all. I have turned iMessage off and back on again on both devices. Any other advice?

    Hi I've checked that, I have 2 addresses under send&receive one is my telephone number and the other is my apple id they both match. I have spoke with apple care who advised me to log out of apple ID in iMessage settings and back in on both devices and now I am getting some messages back to iPhone and some to iPad. It's very frustrating.
    Any other tips to should I make an appointment at local apple store for technical help :-//

    I can print from my iPad3 (to an Epsom printer that is AirPrint enabled), but not from my iPhone4 (get message saying that the iPhone cannot frin an AirPrint printer).  My iPad and iPhone are synched to each other.  Any ideas?

    make sure your iphone is connected to the same wifi where the printer is connected.

  • My notifications are not showing up on my iphone 5.  They show on my old iphone 4 (without phone) and my iPad, but not my iphone 5

    How can I get all the notifications to show in my iphone 5?  I get the notifiactsions on my ipad and the old iphone 4 but cannot get them in the 5.   Especially form facebook.  All the settings appear to be the same.  Am I missing something?

    If you are syncing your contacts from your PC with iCloud, they are not transferred to your phone using iTunes.  They are synced to your phone using iCloud, either over wifi or your cellular data network.
    First go to icloud.com with your computer browser, sign into your account and open Contacts there to confirm that your contacts appear.  If they do, go to Settings>iCloud on your phone, sign into your account and turn Contact on.  Assuming your phone is either connected to wifi or your cellular data network, the contacts should then download from iCloud to your phone.
