  • How do you use imessage on the ipad 2 with wifi

    Whenever I try to use iMessage, it says message failed. Im not sure if it's because I only have the iPad 2 with wifi, not the 3G? Anyone help?!?!?!?!???

    The recipient of any iMessage you send has to have an iPhone, iPad, iPod.

  • IMessage on iPad 2 with WiFi: can receive but can't send

    On my Dad's iPad II with WiFi, when he sends an iMessage to my iPhone it is marked as "Not Delivered" (and does not arrive) but he receives them from me and I can receive them from others.

    Hi there Twinklefingers,
    According to the article below, if the issue is only present with a a specific conatact, you may need to delete that messaging thread and create a new message. If the issues persist, take a look at the article for additional troubleshooting steps.

  • I have an ipad mini 16G wifi - why can't I send SMS txt msg and only imessages?  On the settings, there is no option for "send SMS when imessage not available" like on my iphone.

    Why can't I send SMS messages from my ipad mini 16g wifi?

    Even when your iPad Mini has a 3G cellular modem onboard, the iPad Mini still can NOT send or receive SMS Text messages.
    The 3G modem is only used for a internet data connection and has no software to either send or receive SMS text messages even though the hardware is available.
    I can confirm this with the iPad Mini iOS6.1 with 3G cellular modem.
    Apple Support has this issue currenlty under investigation - you can follow this issue here:
    Ipad Mini with 3G prepaid internet.

  • I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone.

    I just bought an new ipad mini with wifi and cellular. Is there any way to send text messages to people and contacts that do not have iphones such as friends with blackberrys or a samsung galaxy smartphone from this ipad. Everytime I try to send a message to a person that does not have an Apple product ( Iphone or Ipad ) it comes up saying contact is not registered for iMessage and wont send it. I can only send them a message from my iPhone 4 instead. Do I have to install a new App from the App store to send these non iMessage cell users a message?

  • Airport express causes iphone and ipad to lose wifi

    We have a new (3 months old) Airport Extreme in our house.  It provides internet connectivity for an iMac, macbook pro, iphone 3gs, and ipad 2 (and a pc).  Never had any problems.
    Two days ago, I purchased an Airport Express to put downstairs, and wirelessly extend the wifi network.  Setup seemed to go smoothly, and all devices reported a stronger signal downstairs.  However, the iphone and ipad started behaving really strangely after an hour or so.  They kepy saying they couldn't connect to the network, and even when I selected the network, they kepy saying the password was incorrect (even though I typed it in 10 times).  I reset the network settings on the iphone, as well as powered it off and rebooted it to no avail. The only way I have been able to get things working again is to unplug the airport express; restore the airport extreme to its factory settings, and then re-set-up the network on the airport extreme from scratch.
    After things were working again, I re-installed the Airport Express and configured it to wirelessly extend the network.  Same thing happened: everything was fine for an hour or so, and then the iphone and ipad lost wifi connectivity and wouldn't re-connect. Only way to fix it was again to unplug the airport express and wipe the airport extreme back to factory settings and rebuild the network from scratch.
    Is anyone else having this issue?  I'd really love to use the Airport Express for its advertised functions of extending my wifi network (and streaming itunes on my stereo downstairs)-- but if it garbles or kills the ability for my iphone and ipad to use Wifi, that's unacceptable and it will be going back to the Apple store.
    I should mention that as far as I am aware, I have the latest versions of ios running on the iphone and ipad, and the latest firmware updates for the airport extreme and airport express.
    Has anyone dealt with this problem?
    Many thanks.

    Problem solved, found Ninja10's post and was able to fix this problem. Thanks Ninja10!

    Problem solved.  I was recommended by a non Apple consultant to manually change the radio channel.  Channel 11 worked.

Everything on her ipad seems gone and replaced with mine, all her recent holiday photos, emails, settings, etc etc seem gone.

  • I accidently synced my ipad with my wife's ipad, how do i go back to my ipad sync?

    I need to restore my ipad to my sync on itunes.  I inadvertently synced my ipad with my wife's itunes account.

    You will need to go in and plug in your iPad to iTunes. There it should ask you about the sync with your wife's itunes account and you should be able to sync it back with yours.

  • How can i activate my wife's new iPad while my wife was trying to activate without apple id??

    Hello,
    I bought a mini iPad for my wife, she was trying to activate it without apple id. She used a gmail address for id while her id is hotmail. I tried several
    times to reset her password and connect the device with iTunes by pressing the home button. The iPad has locked into the first supposed id gmail.

    If she activated the iPad with her gmail then you will have to use that account to unlock the device. 
    If she has forgotten the password to that ID she can submit this form to Apple to have the password reset:
