Imessage doesnt send imessages to someone with ios5, only sms texts
When I try sending an iMessage to someone with iOS 5, they don't receive it. When they send it to me, I receive it as an SMS text. I tried sending to another iPhone and iMessage worked, as did SMS text with a non-iPhone. Why is this happening? It's really frustrating and I don't know what to do to fix it.
Hi, I have a very easy solution. It took me only 3 seconds. Go to Settings>messages, activate iMessage and deactivate sms. Next time you send a text, it will automatically send as iMessage!

I got an iMessage in this morning and I tried to reply to it, which didn't go through and since then all of my contacts only get Text Messages. It doesn't say "iMessage" in the typing field anymore, it says Text Message. This is urking me and I don't know what to do.
Anyone have a solution?Hi Friend,
First check your Internet connection.
Turn off Show Subject in Settings>>Message
Reset the Network Setting, which makes your phone to forget every networks and passwords that you connected your phone to.
to reset the Network Settings just go to Settings - General - Reset (at the bottom) - Reset Network Settings.
I remember when I reset the Network Settings, i turned off iMessages. I connected to my home Wi-Fi and surfed the web for a little while. Sent some regular SMS messages, and about 10min later, I turned on iMessages again and sent a text to a friend with an iPhone and it started working as iMessage! Baloons finally became blue.
Hope it helps -
HI is it better to send private messages on BB messinger or SMS texts?
Hi All, Im new here I have a 8330 curve that I love! I send alot of very personal messages and I was told NOT to use the BB messenger because other people can get access to those messages. I was also told to use SMS texts for those private messages because it was phone to phone. Can anyone shed some light on this? I use my BB for everything from work to personal and I would rather not have my personal stuff accessed. Thank you!

Trouble texting or sending email to someone with an Apple Iphone
I can text to my daughter, who has an Apple Iphone and she will not receive it. Someone told me I had to release something on my Samsung Note 4 that would let me send to "the competition" phone. I can receive the text but I cannot text back and it go through, even though it acts as if it did.Can you help?
If you had an iPhone prior to your current phone, your phone number is still being held by apple.
Log in to your apple account on a computer at www.icloud.com and remove your old iPhone from Find My iPhone, and go to appleid.apple.com and change your Apple ID password and/or primary email address.
It may take 24 hours to unregister from Apple servers. -

Send PO External email with attachement and Body text
Hi,
I need to send Purchase Orders to Vendors as PDF attachments to emails; I have successfully configured all the necessary to send external email with PDF attachement but I want to add text in the body of the email:
For Output Type NEU
Access to conditions (General Data) set to X the Replacement of text symbols is SAPMM06E/TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE and I fill the text in the Mail Title and Texts. The email was send with all the information : Attachement, title with PO number but with no text in the body.
Can somebody help me with this issue.
best regards
AndreHi,
My file is "PO Number APM - 123456.dpf". You have to config the "Define Message Types for Purchase Order" in the section Mail title and texts with NEU output type. But don't forget to put the program name SAPMM06E
Look at
[purchase order as email - SAPMM06E and TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE|purchase order as email - SAPMM06E and TEXT_SYMBOL_REPLACE]
Best regards

I can only respond to messages. I only can send messages to a persons iPhone but when I try to send to their iPad it says incorrect email for said person but it the email they used when messaging me?
Read this thread, it's a bug that many are experiencing:
Cannot send emails from contacts -
Messages are sending as SMS texts instead of iMessages to some contacts
Hi,
I have noticed that a couple of my contacts with iPhones that I would normally iMessage to now I can only SMS text to.
It seems that in both cases, previously I received and iMessage from them and when I replied, it failed so I chose to send it as SMS.
Now, even, though I have deleted the Message threads, whenever I try and send a Message to them it insists on sending an SMS text instead of an iMessage.
How can I force it to start sending iMessages instead of SMS messages again to these contacts?
Thanks in advance for any help on this as it is really frustrating.

GaryYou may also need to check with those individual receipents regarding the status of their iMessage. The use of iMessage requires an active data connection for both the sender and the receiver. If either is interrupted, it can cause the message to fail. The error could be on their end as well.

i texted this number last night and it worked but when i tried again today it keeps saying not delievered everytime i try to send one.
But if that person did not set up an iMessage account on their iPhone, then they cannot receive any iMessages at all, only SMS text messages.
Both the sender and the recipient must have an iOS device with an active iMessage account.
There is nothing you can do about it, other than ask them to set up iMessage on their device (which if they don't want to, is their choice). -
How can I either change my Pages document into a Word document, Or send it to someone with a PC/Word so that they can open and read it? (My email is gmail).
Lois,
If you have used any fancy Pages features, they will be lost in translation to Word. In that case, Export or Print to PDF and send the PDF.

Receive iMessage and SMS text in one window
I was wondering if anyone knows of a setting or whether its even possible to receive an iMessage from an iPad and a SMS text from a non Apple phone within one chat window when they both are coming from the same person. Someone text's me throughout the day from her non iPhone. When she gets home and hops on her iPad, she sends me messages from iMessage. This opens two different chat windows. Any way to fix this?
I'm sorry, Apple will not read this. They do not participate in the forum. If you would like to provide them with feedback about this, you can do that HERE. Then click on the appropriate link. While switching between iMessage and SMS in a single conversation is possible, remember as I said, you are conducting two separate conversations, because they are coming from two separate devices, that are actually crossing platforms.

IMessage for MBP not starting new SMS messages
iMessage for Mac 10.10.2 tries to start all texts as iMessages. I can only SMS text from my MBP if a conversation exists with the party of interest. How can I get my MBP to start a new text message instead of iMessages only?
I have asked the Hosts to move this to Yosemite.

Cannot send non-iMessage messages on iPad with ios5
Using an iPad2 with ios5 and trying to send messages without using iMessage. Here's the sequence of events:
1. In Settings under Messages turn iMessage off
2. In Messages app, the first screen that shows up tells me I need to login to Apple to activate iMessages. Once I login the messages setting is now set to iMessages again.
There is no discernible way to use Messages without using iMessages. Am I missing something or is this another "***, Apple?" moment?I understand, if they do not have iMessage the send button should be green and it will send to them as an SMS. If there is an issue and it is blue for some reason then hold the button down it will turn green and send it as a text message.
Sorry, forgot where I was. The iPad only uses iMessage in the texting app, it is the iPhone where my suggestion will work. If you want to text message someone you will need to look for an app to do so.

You need to make sure that the setting You can be reaached by iMessage at: is the same on both devices or at least have a common entry.
