I updated to ios 5.1.1 on ipad2 but Messages is not working now

I updated my ipad2 to ios 5.1.1. and am having problems with Messages. It opens but will not send messages

Reboot your iPad:  Press and hold BOTH the poswer and home buttons at the SAME time for about 10 seconds (ignore the red slider to shut down) until the Apple Logo appears, then let go of both buttons and your iPad will restart.  ONce it comes back up, see if you can send messages.

  • I've installed a system update as requested, 10.6.7 but mail is not working now.

    I've installed a system update yesterday as requested, all software works fine, except Mail - I get the following message You have mail version 4.5 (1084/1082), it cant be used on Max OSX Version 10.6.7 (Build 10J869).  I've done a complete reinstall of my imac too, but this has not cleared the problem.
    Please help

    Please do this:
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions
    Boot from your Leopard Installer disc. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and quit the installer.
    If DU reports errors it cannot fix, then you will need Disk Warrior and/or Tech Tool Pro to repair the drive. If you don't have either of them or if neither of them can fix the drive, then you will need to reformat the drive and reinstall OS X.
    Upon satisfactory completion boot from your Snow Leopard DVD and resinstall Snow Leopard. Upon completion you may wish to update it to Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.

  • I have received a replacement iphone 5, updated to ios 7.0.2 and my cellular data will not work.

    is anyone else experiencing network issues after updating to IOS7? I have sprint, and two of my other roommates have sprint as well, and their 3G seems to be working fine( slowly, but functioning). Is there anythnig besides doing network resets and updating the profile by dialing ##873283#-- that I can do to remedy this issue? Certainly a phone of this caliber should have working data, when not on wifi as well.
    Thanks for all the help guys!!

    Hopefully you won't have to make a trip to the Apple Store.
    Reset the device:
    Press and hold the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button together for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    If that doesn't help, tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset All Settings
    If that does not help, restore the software >  iTunes: Restoring iOS software

  • HT201263 After Ios7 update it asked me to restore iphone . But restore is not working

    After IOS7 update, Extract software did not recognize device properly . Now iTunes asked me to restore iphone . I tried restoring.
    Its giving me an error saying Phone not recognized [Error code : 2000] http://www.apple.com/support/iphone/updaterestore/?error=20000
    Kindly help pls ..

    Hey kartbeat2001,
    Thanks for the question. The following article provides relevant information in regards to Error 2000:
    iTunes: Specific update-and-restore error messages and advanced troubleshooting
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS3694
    Error 2000-2009 (2001, 2002, 2005, 2006, 2009, and so on)
    If you experience this issue on a Mac, disconnect third-party devices, hubs, spare cables, displays, reset the SMC, and then try to restore. If you're using a Windows computer, remove all USB devices and spare cables other than your keyboard, mouse, and the device, restart the computer, and try to restore. If that doesn't resolve the issue, try the USB issue-resolution steps listed for Error 1604 above. If the issue persists, it may be related to conflicting security software. If the errors persist on another computer and known-good USB cable, the device may need service.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • HT5654 Hi, I have tried to update my itunes the way i usualy would but this has not worked. I have uninstalled it and then reinstalled it and I am still having the same issue. It keep saying that there is an error with the apples mobile device.

    Hi, i have tried to update itunes in the normal way as when i opened it, it said that there was an update available. However it would not let me saying that the was a mobile device error. I have unistalled and reinsatlled it and I am still getting the same error. Does anyone know how I can fix this?

    You need to do as provided. If no change after restoring as a new iPhone or not from the backup, the iPhone has a hardware problem.

    Hi waqaskhan91,
    Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
    If you're not able to send text or iMessages to certain contacts after updating your iPhone, start with the troubleshooting tips in this article:
    iOS: Troubleshooting Messages - Apple Support
    If you only see this behavior with a few contacts, you may want to try these steps first:
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, back up or forward important messages and delete your current messaging threads with the contact. Create a new message to the contact and try again.
    If the issue occurs with a specific contact or contacts, delete and recreate the contact from the Contacts app. Send a new message to the contact.
    Best Regards,
    Jeremy

    Did you click on the link just below that that says:
    iOS: Device not recognized in iTunes for OS X
    iPhone, iPad, or iPod touch not recognized in iTunes for Windows
    You have to read the entire support article and follow the subsequent links if the first solutions do not resolve the issue....

  • After updating My iPad 2 to iOS 5.1.1 , my newly installed apps are not working.

    After updating My iPad 2 to iOS 5.1.1 , my newly installed apps are  not working . When I try to open the app the screen just flashes and then nothing happens. Built in apps works fine . Please help

    I realize that installing apps is not the problem. Installing another app from the app store is a recommended troubleshooting tip from Apple if all of the third party apps will not open. It resets your iTunes authorization when you install the app because you have to enter your password.
    If you didn't install another app try it. Read this support article as well.
    iOS: Troubleshooting applications purchased for the App Store
    Try this as well. Quit all apps, reset the iPad.
    Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Quit/close open apps by double tapping the home button and the task bar will appear with all of you recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner to close the apps.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
    Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad.
    Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then see if the apps will launch.

  • I updated to ios 5.1.1 and added icloud services. the problem is now whenever i connect my iphone to my PC, itunes does not recognize my phone. i need it to but it just does not connect..

    i updated to ios 5.1.1 and added icloud services. the problem is now whenever i connect my iphone to my PC, itunes does not recognize my phone. i need it to but it just does not connect..

    Try the standard fixes to rule out a software problem:
    - Reset. Nothing is lost
    Reset iPod touch: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Restore from backup
    - Restore to factory defaults/new iPod.
    If you still have the problem that points to a hardware problem. Yu can make an appointment at the the Genius Bar of an Apple store or try:
    fix for Home button

  • My I message is not working, since IOS 8.3 update.

    My messages is not working properly, since IOS 8.3 update. Message are left hanging as undelivered. When I tap on "try again" nothing happens. Even messages to known contacts with I phones, appear in green and does not get delivered anyway. I have reset my i phone several times to no avail. I like my I phone 6+ as a camera. All other functions are less than impressive.

    hie there Actually um trying to update new iOS 7 for my iphone 4 but when i press the button to install new software suddenly it appears why " iOs 7 failed verification because you are no longer connected to the internet " even my phone is already connected to net

    I tried powering down and re-starting the iPhone (as suggested at http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1275). This seems to have cleared the "...not connected to the Internet" problem, and iOS 6.1 is now in the process of downloading.
    Thanks very much for your feedback.

  • After updating to IOS 6 last week end my I books do not open, is there something else I should do?

    After updating to IOS 6 last week end my I books do not open when touched is this a problem? What am I missing?
    Thanks

    nope.  I think the update erased the contacts.  The update was for an exchange calendar bug.  This may have affected my contacts.  I use windows mail version for vista.  It just seemed simple to read mail without setting up outlook.  So I guess ordinarily I would just get them off the computer thru itunes but without a program to sync to I guess they are gone.  Some are still there with phone numbers but I guess only facebook friends.  What a mess.  I guess they are all gone.  I had originally thought that they would be backed up.  Now I guess I am building two or three years of contacts again.  Wish I'd kept my old phone.  Would have been worth the money to just keep that as a back-up.

  • I see there is another ios update. I have an iPhone 4S. The last time I updated the ios I lost all my contacts, as I had not been using the iCloud as a backup. I am now apprehensive about the latest update. How can I determine if contacts are backed up?

    I see there is another ios update. I have an iPhone 4S. The last time I updated the ios I lost all my contacts, as I had not been using the iCloud as a backup. I am now apprehensive about the latest update. How can I determine if contacts are backed up?

    You should never lose contacts under any circumstances.
    Although contacts are included with the iPhone's backup, contacts are designed to be synced with a supported address book app on your computer where such important data should be available with or without an iPhone or any cell phone. Not a good idea to depend on a cell phone for such important data which can be lost or stolen or damaged beyond repair.
    In addition, there are a number of free email accounts that support syncing contacts over the air including an iCloud account, Gmail, Yahoo, and Hotmail.
    If you are not syncing contacts over the air with an iCloud account and not backing up your iPhone wirelessly with your iCloud account, your iPhone's backup is being updated by iTunes on your computer which is updated as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
    With Windoze, contacts can be synced with Outlook 2003, 2007, or 2010 along with syncing calendar events, notes, and reminders, or with the address book app used by Outlook Express and by Windows Mail called Windows Contacts for syncing contacts only. With a Mac, contacts can be synced with the Address Book app. This is selected under the Info tab for your iPhone sync preferences with iTunes.
    If the supported address book app on your computer is not used and has no contacts available, before the first sync for this data enter one contact in the supported address book app on your computer. This will provide a merge prompt with the first sync for this data, which you want to select.
