IMessage help! Not sending to one contact.

My iMessage will not send to only one do my contacts that has iMessage. It used to work fine with this contact. It works fine for all my other contacts with iMessage capabilities. What's going on? How do I fix this?

I receive replies on iPhone 5 only, not on iPad which is the device causing problems for this one contact only.  The contact is using an iPhone 4, but so are other contacts with whom I have no problems. This problem started after March 17.

  • IMessage not sending to one contact?

    My iMessage has been fine for ages, and has just suddenly stopped sending to one contact in the middle of a conversation, but is still sending to other contacts. I've turned iMessage off and on, restarted my iPod and changed my wifi code but nothing has worked? Help!

  • IMessage will not send to one person...

    Ok so I have the iPod 4th generation. It is up to date but heres the problem. I am unable to send an iMessage to a person. I can type it, however, once I press send, I never get the little "delivered" note.Even restarting or resetting internet connection won't help. This is only happening to one person that I regularly message. Everyone else I can message to. The person who I am trying to message has an iPhone 4 and I'm not too sure what happened because we were just talking to each other yesterday. What is wrong? Is it long distance? Is the other person's iPhone not on or doesn't have iMessage not on? My internet connections works excellently. My iMessage is on and the Wi-Fi on my iPod is fine. Everything is in good standings, but my messages to that one person will not deliver (and give me that deliver note)

    I was having the exact same problem with just one contact. Did all the resets, etc. I am copy and pasting below what worked for me, it was SO frustrating. Good luck and I hope it works for you.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, deselect all email addresses.
    Go back one screen and turn off iMessages. Now go back a screen, and go to FaceTime, deselect all email addresses and turn off FaceTime.
    Wait 5 minutes.
    Turn on iMessages, ensuring no email addresses are selected, it should then have your mobile number ticked. Do the same for FaceTime.
    We have no idea why this works. It just does.
    I would love to know if it solves your problem!

  • IMessage photos stopped sending to one contact.

    I have an iPhone 5 and the recipient a 4.  Photos and voice recordings have been sending fine in iMessage for a while and all of a sudden in the past three days they are not sending.  Regular iMessages (without pics or voicerecordings) send fine but not with pics or recordings.  I have to send those as a text message not iMessage.
    I'm able to send pics and recordings in iMessage to other contacts just fine but not one specific contact.  This also happened to another contact a while back.  What's going on with these people?
    Thank you!

    Hello MJ in Oakland,
    Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
    Since you are having an issue with just iMessage, please follow the troubleshooting below in order:
    To resolve issues with sending and receiving iMessages, follow these steps
    Check iMessage system status for current service issues.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive and make sure that you registered iMessage with your phone number or Apple ID and that you selected iMessage for use. If the phone number or Apple ID isn't available for use, troubleshoot iMessage registration.
    Open Safari and navigate to www.apple.com to verify data connectivity. If a data connection isn't available, troubleshoot cellular data or a Wi-Fi connection.
    iMessage over cellular data might not be available while you're on a call. Only 3G and faster GSM networks support simultaneous data and voice calls. Learn which network your phone supports. If your network doesn't support simultaneous data and voice calls, go to Settings > Wi-Fi and turn Wi-Fi on to use iMessage while you're on a call.
    Restart your device.
    Tap Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings on your iPhone.
    If you still can't send or receive an iMessage, follow these steps
    Make sure that the contact trying to message you isn't blocked in Settings > Messages > Blocked.
    Make sure that the contact you're trying to send a message to is registered with iMessage.
    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 in the Contacts app. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    Back up and restore your device as new.

  • My IMessage will not send to one specific person. How do I fix this?

    The other person has an Iphone 4s and I message is on.

    Do you have problem with other iMessage recipients?
    If no, then that contact needs to fix it on their end. That's nothing you can do on your end.

  • HT3529 My imessage will not send pictures. What can i do? Help!

    My imessage will not send pictures. What can i do?

    Perhaps some more detail on how you have Messages set up would help in diagnosing your problem?
    My response was simply to tell you that iMessage does work with photos in iOS 6.
    There could be a transient problem with the iMessage servers which is causing your problem.

  • IMessage not working with ONE contact after changing phone number

    Ok.. I changed my phone number Friday night. (same device) Once I restarted my phone and programmed it (*228) everything was working fine except one contact with iMessage. Since Friday night just one contact will only go through as SMS message. My other imessage users are all going back and forth as blue. This person I am having the problem with is also sending and receiving imessages with other contacts, just to me it is going through as text as well. Any help? I've shut iMessage off and on a bunch of times, turned the phone on and off... nothing seems to be working.. Any advice would be great!

    I have the same trouble with one of my contacts and I have been using my iPhone 4S and iPad (3rd generation) for a while. I hope we can get a solution.

  • IMessage not available to one contact on iPhone but works from iPad

    Hi, earlier today iMessage stopped working on my iPhone to one contact (the person I speak to the most), but is working from my iPad.  The messages I receive from him are still iMessages and neither of us have changed our settings.  From my phone I can only send him SMS.  My iPhone and iPad are running iOS 7.0.4 and his phone iOS 6.1.5.  iMessage is working on my phone to all my other contacts.  I have tried turning the phone off and on, turned iMessage off and on, deleted and re added the contact, but I'm still having the same problem.  Is anyone else having this problem or know how to fix it?
    Many thanks
    Jen

    Sorry I have also tried reset network settings, which didn't work either.
    Thanks again
