IChat not letting me send messages?

My ichat is not letting me send messages. Everytime I type something, then press enter, it still shows the little thought bubble, instead of the text I've typed.
Please help! Thanks

I was trying to avoid this but I think you are going to have to reinstall it

My iMessage will not let me send or receive messages on my iPhone 5 has not been working for 5 days

My iMessage will not let me send or receive other iMessages on my iPhone 5

Apple is aware of the issue and is workingon an update to address iMessage issues.
In the meantime I have found that a good old fashion reset cures it for a while.
Reset: Hold the Sleep/Wake and Home buttons and don’t let go until the screen goes dark and the Apple logo appears (no data will be lost)
Others have had success with this:
1. Turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages
2. Reset networking settings in Settings > General > Reset
3. Reenable iMessage in Settings > Messages
Note: This will clear all wifi passwords.

My Iphone 4 will not let me send an email or reply to an email. The message states it has put it in my outbox and it is rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying??? I can't seem to find an answer to fix this. Any help?

My Iphone 4 will not let me send an email or reply to an email. The message states that it has put my email in my outbox and that my server does not allow for relaying. Can anyone help with this? I have read some other answers and nothing has worked Thanks

Your email provider has blocked the standard mail port 25 for sending emails and is requiring a different port. This is to avoid mail relays that use mail clients to send spam. You need to find the port that is used by your provider for sending outgoing mail. Then change the settings in your email account on your phone to match the port. You will also have to provide some security credentials for the account.
You can also try deleting the email account from your iphone, and the adding the email account back as this will many times set the correct port for sending emails.
You could also do a Google search on the the settings for your device with your email provider. That will provide you with the proper settings.

If yes, contact your carrier.

New iPad3 and it's not letting me send text messages.....the "send" button is not high lighted....

New iPad3 and it's not letting me send text messages.....the "send" button is not high lighted....

I've already tried everything listed in these links.
I've also resync'd email accounts via iTunes between my Air and iPad3.
Messaging works OK on all my other devices using the same account settings.
Problem started around May25th.
(and yes, I already posted back then under a different ID with no resolution).
There has to be a simple solution.
I'm presuming some sort of conflict with iCloud, but not sure.
Any other ideas?

My ichat will let me send video chats requests, but it will not let me accept them. What should i do? Also, sometimes it tells me i cannot add a 2nd or 3rd person to an existing chat because it is connected to AOL's relay servers. What does this mean?

Unfortunately, most of my advice is in the "hindsight is 20-20" category.
First off, I would never have purchased the peripheral accessories until the 14 day return period had expired. Second, you learned the hard way what the "14 days" really means.
Too bad you didn't do any homework, reading this and other forums and tech sites. Even word of mouth from others. That, more than anything could have steered you towards different phone choices from the get-go and I will leave that there with no further comment other than to say most of the issues you described have been discussed in this forum, ad nauseam.
Once you got into the refurbished phone exchanges, that is where things really went haywire. What someone tells you over the phone is a sketchy proposition, and when it comes down to it, it's your word against theirs.
I think Verizon tried to make it right, though. Remember, they don't make the phones. Don't throw the baby out with the bathwater.
You stated yourself you were a satisfied Verizon customer before this. Had the first two phones performed as they should, you would still be a satisfied Verizon customer.
Doubt any of that will make you any happier, but after you went through the effort of writing such a long post, I thought I'd try.

I'm having some problems wiht Firefox, for example; Youtube isn't loading right, Facebook won't let me send messages, search up people, and this website i made wont load right also. I've re-installed and updated it but still the same problems. Any help?

I'm having some problems wiht Firefox, for example; Youtube isn't loading right, Facebook won't let me send messages, search up people, and this website i made wont load right also. I've re-installed and updated it but still the same problems. Any help?

Because I know enough to be dangerous... I was trying to extend the two outside columns down.... Instead of just using faux columns which I have fixed since I posted the question.
The other link problem is the left sidebar links. When you go to the event photos page I have a repeat of the sidebar links that are on the newsletter page. I used named anchors on the newsletter page to link to the particular article. From the Event Photos page the links look like this:
<a href="1112Visions_Iss1.html/#puzzle" target="_self">[Puzzle]</a>
The problem I am having is that some of these go to the newsletter page and the anchor and some do not (I get an error message saying it can't find the page). To add to the problem is that when we choose say the President's Message, when it goes to the newsletter page and the correct anchor, the newsletter page is missing all the links to the graphics... the photos are missing the graphic for the faux columns is missing. It makes no sense. When I preview the newsletter page from Dreamweaver everything shows up fine.
I do not know if all of this is being caused because I haven't posted this stuff to the site or what. I've tried re-booting both the browser and Dreamweaver, dumping the cache and still the same nonsense.
Got any ideas?

Hello candace22,
Did you update the password for your account on the iPod Touch as well? Perhaps you should head to your Mail settings and re-enter the password. See this article for more help on adjusting or changing your mail settings.

IPhone won't let me send messages to more than 2 contacts at a time

My iPhone suddenly won't let me send messages to more than 2 contacts at a time. This is annoying as I want to send out a group SMS to people.
Any suggestions? I'm using the latest update to the operating system.
Cheers.

It would appear that I can send an SMS to multiple contacts, providing that it's not a forwarded message. This means that I have to start from scratcheach time, and then I can send it to over 30 recipients at a time. Not sure why though, and I'm not sure why the sign doesn't appear all of the time as an option for me to press. At other times, it is particially obscured by the curser/text box. This is obviously a glitch in the system, as it happens inconsistently.
