IMessage doesn't receive messages when on airplane mode

Okay so here's the issue I have here, I'm using an iPod touch 4G that's running on iOS 6.1.6. I like to put my iPod on airplane mode when I'm not using it, so it's always on airplane mode at night. Usually, until last week, all messages sent to me on iMessage while I was on airplane mode would be received when I took my iPod off of airplane mode so that I could read them and reply. Since last week, I've run into a problem where I only receive the latest 3-4 messages sent to me on iMessage and none of them from earlier.Or I receive no messages at all, only to find out later that I have received a lot from friends. I know that this has to do with putting my iPod on airplane mode, I have reset all my network settings but the issue is still present. I'm confused as to why this problem has just popped up because I have done this for a really long time and no issues came up until just a week ago. Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thank you

Are you powering the iPod off (Slide to Power off)?
Or are you letting the iPod sleep?
When powered off it can't receive anything.
If just asleep see:

Also try when connect to another network

IPod doesn't receive messages when turned off

I Own a 32gb 5th generation iPod. The version is iOS 7.1.2 In the past month whenever I turn my iPod off it doesn't receive messages that have been sent to me. Sometimes when I turn it on I will get messages that weren't delivered that day, it will always be from exactly 6 days ago. I'm not really sure what could be causing it and I have not changed anything that would have caused it that I know of. The only way that this doesn't happen is if I leave my iPod on 24/7.

Should iphone 4 receive messages when turned off and display them when switched back on

should iphone 4 receive messages when turned off and display them when switched back on

It's up to the cellular carrier, but I believe most (if not all) will enqueue the messages when your iPhone is off.
So generally speaking, a few minutes after you turn your iPhone on, your messages should display. Similarly, your voicemails would arrive.

There do not appear in itunes all devices
Windows 7
sorry for my english!

Hey, I have had my intunes soley shut down my computer numerous times, for the past month or so. I realize now it is only within my itunes, but it may not only be itunes. My desktop and a lot of cashed info have been cleared now, as a result of a ton of restarts by completely shutting the power most likely.
I have been too lazy to back up my music because it messes stuff up, and goes so slow it crashes. it will probably work better if I dont even touch itunes and just transfer small parts of my library at a time, not all 120+ gb!
I think a my computer is
           a fried
           b my files are terribly corrupted
           c or my itunes is compromised
either way, i will back up my music, but what do you think the chances are my music is the culprate, and by backing it up I will have the same problem in the future?
i've been thinking re-installing itunes would be best
let me know....thanks

Ipad4 will only receive messages when it is switched on.

Ipad4 will only receive messages when it is switched on. If messages are sent when it is switched off they never arrive. Any ideas on how to fix this please?

The Mac uses a highly-parameterized display Driver, customized for the actual capabilities of the display. The settings are determined by a query to the display at power-on, when the Mac queries every attached display. The display name is also reported.
System preferences > Displays > (Detect Displays) ...
... replicates the query to update what displays are present and their names and capabilities. So using that command when the display state is changed off to on or on to off should adjust the configuration to current state of things.

IMessages not coming to iPhone while in airplane mode

iMessages not coming to iPhone while in airplane mode, but arrive well on iMac !
Is there something I can do ?

Yes, I know that, but when receiving a SMS, even if the iPhone is turned off or in airplane mode, the message is not completely lost, it will arrive as soon as the iPhone is turned back on ...

If you have FCPX (10) you can upgrade for free at the MacApp Store.
Did you click "proxy media" when importing? That will help playback.

W540 crashes when turning airplane mode on.

I've already made this post but decided to do it again since more users have the W540 now, as well as to make things clearer.
When turning airplane mode on (F8 key), the laptop simply turns off - no BSOD.
Model: W540 20BG
OS: Windows 8.1 (happened on 8 as well)
I've tried reinstalling/resetting the OS, as well as reinstalling various drivers. Sometimes the problem will go away temporarily, but always comes back.
Has anyone had this problem/has a solution?

No, that's the only way to do it. Seriously, tapping Settings then Airplane mode, which takes about 3 seconds is really too slow? Seriously?

TS2755 iPhone 5 on ios7 doesn't receive messages from other iPhones when data is turned off

My iPhone 5 doesn't receive iMessages or texts from other iPhones when my data is turned off, obviously I do not expect to receive iMessages but I also cannot receive text messages. Text messages can be sent but not received. Text messaging to and from people with androids and blackberries is fine.

That is because iPhone users would be sending you iMessages. The only time you would receive them as a text is if they have theirs turned off, or it is set to send an SMS if iMessage fails. At some point you had iMessages activated, and if so, that is how the iDevices will send to you.

How can I stop iOS from opening a recently received message when I click on the messages app to compose an unrelated message to a different contact? I want to read it later, when I have time to reply, and I don't want to forget to go back to it.

iPhone messages automatically open when I don't want them to
One of my first ever flip phones had a wonderful function where you could choose a checkbox next to received messages to make them appear read or unread. This was very convenient for messages which you read, but don't have time to reply to immediately, and want to remember to come back to later.
In contrast, the latest, greatest iPhone not only does not have this rudimentary message management function, but it goes one step further in the wrong direction. If there is just one received, unread message, and you click on the messages icon, the new message will automatically be opened. It is opened irrespective of whether you have time to read it right away, irrespective of if you simply wanted to compose a new message or go back to another already read message. It just opens the new one, and then you are in a position where you have to read it and respond to it right there, or risk forgetting about it and failing to reply to it altogether. I sometimes receive a lot of messages over a period of a few hours, so it is very easy to lose track of these half-read messages in the mayhem. I have missed countless messages because of this problem. Incidentally, if there is more than one received message, then the application doesn't automatically open any of them, which is much better, because you can at least choose when you want to open one of the unread messages. But ideally, you should be able to go through your list of received messages and check or uncheck them as read or unread at any time, so that you can easily find messages that still need to be replied to, or reconsidered.
Does anybody have a solution to this problem? It strikes me as a simple data management solution that should be, but is not an option in the basic functionality of the app. Frustrating!

Is this an IMAP account?
If so, delete the messages in Mail from all folders and quit Mail.
Go the the website and clear the messages from all folders there.
Reopen Mail and verify the messages have been deleted for all folders.

Whatsapp doesn't receive messages instantly

Hello,
Recently, my friend's iPhone started to show problems within Whatsapp, not receiving messages even when she has opened the app to check out new messages. For example, when I send her a message at 10 a.m, she will not receive it even when she has opened the app. Then the app suddenly did receive the message at 2:30 p.m. The delay is kind of annoying as it's an instant messaging service and it just doesn't do its work properly.
The problems started to occur after she installed the new update. She has tried to reinstall the app, hoping to resolve the problem but that didn't work. I've tried to search for a solution on the internet, but most of them are describing problems about Notification problems, but not the messages themself. Her iPhone 4 is running on iOS5. My question is, have some of you encountered these problems as well, and if so, I would like to know how I can help her solve this problem.
I'll provide more specific information if needed, as I'm not sure for which part I will have to search right now.
Notable information
- this occurs mostly before 3pm, after this time, it seemed to be okay
- App has been reinstalled to try to solve the problem
- Firmware: iOS 5.0.0
- Happens on both Wifi and Cellular network
Hope you guys will have an answer for this problem!
Greets

im having the same problem too. but not only whatsapp, it happen on my phone SMS too. my friend said she did not receive my previous message.
so i was wondering this is a phone problem or my connection problem ?? as it happen no matter its on wifi or data or without both...

Received text message while in airplane mode

I recently flew to South America and put my phone (Samsung SGS3) into airplane mode. Imagine my surprise when during my flight I received a text message from Verizon, saying "Welcome to Mexico." And then more info about signing up for a global plan. How did Verizon know I was crossing over Mexico and how did they send me a text message? Isn't airplane mode suppposed to turn off all radios? Wifi was not on either. I was on American, which does have wifi, but my wifi was turned off. Or does airplane mode not really turn everything off?

The show SMS preview option off with a passcode lock enabled is for when your iPhone is locked.
If unlocked and being used, the assumption is it will be you that is using your iPhone, and I don't have anyone looking over my shoulder when I'm using my iPhone.
Before allowing someone else to handle or use your iPhone, turn on Airplane mode so that no SMS or calls can be recieved when someone else is using your iPhone. If internet access is required when someone else is using your iPhone and there is an available wi-fi network that you have access to, you can turn on wi-fi access with Airplane mode enabled. This won't prevent someone else that you allow to use your iPhone from reading your SMS or email, but if I discovered someone I allowed to use my iPhone perusing through my SMS or email without my knowledge or permission, that would be the last time they would use my iPhone for any reason.

AIM/Yahoo, ect How to receive messages when doing other things....

I downloaded the AIM and Yahoo Apps and even tried the new Palringo App, but all of them seem to disconnect when I leave the program and go back to the home screen and reconnect when I go back.
People say It doesnt seem to log me out, however I dont receive any notification of messages when I am doing other things, not like I would if I receive a text message,
Any way to fix this and get messages without going back to check in the program?

Apps cannot run in the background. AIM keeps you logged in for ~5 minutes after you exit the app, but you'd need to go back to the AIM app to get any IMs.
In your AOL settings (accessed through your browser) you can set it to send you an SMS when you get an IM.

Upgraded to Yosemite, now mail doesn't receive messages

Recently upgraded to Yosemite on my late 2011 MBPro, now I can not receive messages through mail. I can send messages though. I also have outlook for Mac which is functioning properly.

Found what seems to be a fix.
Go: Mail>Preferences>Accounts
Uncheck "automatically detect and maintain account settings"
Check "allow insecure authentication"
Probably not the most secure fix, but all my selfies are already on the cloud anyway lol.
