I set up my daughter's ipad mini. Now she can't send out text messages.

1. Messages on the iPad can only be sent to other iDevices
2. They must also be registered with iMessage
Note: The two above conditions must be met.

In my wife's iPad she cannot send a text message to an Android user, but I can on mine. Both use the same 8.1 iOS. When she types in the addressee name it comes up in red and will not allow "send."

How do you send a text message to an Android user via Messages? My wife and I both have iPads running 8.1 iOS. When she types in the addressee name it appears in red (not in mine). Then she is not allowed to send.

There are a lot of posts in the forums today with people having problems with iMessage. There was also a published outage yesterday, so it's possible there are still some issues that may be impacting you both.
I would just wait it out - I'm sure it will be sorted out soon.

You are only as young as you feel......
This is an example of how you can select the exact content that you want to sync to your device. You do not have to sync the entire iTunes library. You can pick and choose the music, apps, books and so on that you want to sync. This is using music as an example.
Connect the iPad to the PC and launch iTunes.
Click on the iPad name on the left side under devices.
Click on the Music Tab on the right.
Click on only the albums or playlists that you want to sync.
Click on the Sync Music Heading.
Click on Apply in the lower right corner of iTunes
You can do this with apps, books, movies .... Whatever .... You have the freedom to sync whatever you want.

I dropped my Iphone 5 which resulted in it shattering and the screen was still on but it was black with only a white line through it so I couldnt access the phone however I switched over to my Droid and now I cannot send or receive messages?

I dropped my Iphone 5 which resulted in it shattering and the screen was still on but it was black with only a white line through it so I couldnt access the phone however I switched over to my Droid and now I cannot send or receive messages and I cant turn off imessage because I cant see anything on the screen. Help?

Then the bottom of the support document states that if you do not have access to the device (which unfortunately because of the screen issue you do not) to contact Apple Care. That is what you need to do.

Make sure MMS is enabled.
Contact your carrier to make sure MMS is provisioned on your account.

S4 MINI Calls, But cannot send receive Texts

Samsung Galaxy S4 Mini purchased on amazon as an upgrade from an iphone 4. Makes and receives calls fine, quality is great. receives and sends facebook messages (while not connected to wifi) great as well. For some reason I can't send out or receive text messages, keep getting a message failure status on all messages I try to send. Have not received a single text message either....
Things I have tried:
Reboot phone
Removed Battery + rebooted phone
Removed sim card and rebooted phone
checked the android version 4.2.2
what should I try now?

Log into your iTunes account and disassociate or delete the iPhone 4 from your account.
Contact all your friends who may be using iMessage to try and communicate with you, and have them remove you from their iMessage account, and send you standard text messages (to your 10 digit phone number).
Call Verizon (800-922-0204, or *611 from your cell phone) and make sure that text messaging is provisioned properly on your account, and that you don't have messaging blocked.

I got a new iPhone for my cousin and she is using the same the Apple ID as mine and now when I send her text messages to her number, it's sending it to myself and not her. What do I do?

I am also receiving random text messages from some of her contacts, and she is not getting them.

If it's just a text message and not iMessage that is a problem with the service provider. You should take the iPhone back to the store and explain to them what is going on.

I just did a update on my Iphone 5..now when i send a text message,it repeats back under my phone number..how can i stop this?

my texts are repeating back to me under my number,why?

There are multiple reasons why the update failed, unless you can provide an error message/code that came up then nodbody will know.
Now your iPhone is in recovery mode and will now need to be connected to a computer with iTunes and restored to factory settings. This will install the update at the same time.
If you have a back up of the iPhone before the issue occurred then after the restore to fqactory settings you can restore the back up to the iPhone. If there was no back up then I'm sorry your data is gone.

I can't get AIM to send out texts messages on my new iPad. Says unable to connect, any suggestions? It's an iPad 2 wifi... Thanks

Have a new iPad2 wifi- trying to text using the AIM app, keeps saying "unable to connect" any suggestions? Thanks

Katie-
I assume you already have an AIM account, and have entered the correct user name and password in the AIM App.
This sounds similar to a problem where the iPad connects to your WiFi, but can't reach the internet. It could be a compatibility problem with your WiFi router.
You can try resetting the iPad's network. Go to Settings-General-Reset-Reset Network Settings. You will then need to reconnect to your WiFi.
Another thing to try is to reboot the iPad. Hold both the Home and Sleep buttons for several seconds until the Apple logo appears. Ignore the "Slide to power off" arrow. The iPad will restart after a couple of minutes. Rebooting will not hurt anything, and sometimes clears up mysterious problems.

HT5262 The information in my iPhone is now corrupt. The calendar is scrambled. I cannot send any text messages. My storage is almost full. Should I backup the scrambled information to my laptop before going to the Genius Bar?

My iPhone 5 storage is almost full. My calendar is scrambled. I cannot receive text messages or voice mail. Gmail and safari blinks out. The phone will not allow me to delete information. Should I try to back up to my laptop before going to the Genius Bar?

Unless you have recently restored the device from a backup it might be best, if possible, to try to back up to a different computer, otherwise yes backup anyway. There is normally only one rolling backup for each device until the backup is used to restore. Backing up to multiple machines would give you a chance to restore the current state, or your most recent backup if that fails.

This is a user-supported board. You are not addressing Apple here. Nor is it a good idea to post your private information to a public forum. You should edit your post immediately.
Unfortunately no one here can access your support history. You must respond to the emails directly.
