IMessage not working after updating iOS 6.1

My 4s is not working with my wife's iPhone in iMessage after update.My wife's is not working either.Ive tried turning cellular off and on,been through the settings etc.whats the story with this bug?

I think I have fixed the problem. I tried resetting, etc. I also tried turning off iMessage and then reactivating. it would work for a short time and then lose it.
I noticed that I could not iMessage to my personal email address, which is set up in iCloud. When I tried, the Send button stayed grayed out.
So I edited my contact record, changing the order of two email addresses in the contact record. I had an email address custom labeled iPhone email, and that one was first in my contact record. I changed the order first, making my home (primary) email address the first email in the record. Then, I reentered my phone email address as the last email in the record, and relabeled the phone email address label to read phone emai. Voila! I got a lovely blue talk bubble next to my home/personal email address (the one that is set up with iMessage). Morevoer, I could then direct an iMessage to it. It now syncs my conversations on all devices (iMac, iPhone, iPad 2).
FWIW, iPad is still running iOS 6.0, but if this fix holds, I will update that later today.

  • Volume button not working after update ios..

    My iphone 4s volume down button not working after i upgrade to ios 6.0...and then i update to ios 6.0.1 its still not working...plz help...what happen...???

    Settings > Sounds > Change with Buttons... Make sure this is set to ON.
    Basic troubleshooting from the User's Guide is reset, restart, restore (first from backup then as new).  Try each of these in order until the issue is resolved.
    If none of the above resolves the issue, take the device to Apple for evaluation or possible replacement.

  • IMessage not working after updating to IOS 6.1

    I just updated to IOS 6.1 on my iPad (version 3).  When the iPad rebooted it was not connected to the internet - I connect through bluetooth with my iphone as a hotspot.  I proceeded past that point without a connection.  Now my iMessage does not work.  It gets caught up when the bar indicates the message is almost sent.  Then the red ! appears and the message is not delivered.
    What do I need to do to get this working again?

    I think I have fixed the problem. I tried resetting, etc. I also tried turning off iMessage and then reactivating. it would work for a short time and then lose it.
    I noticed that I could not iMessage to my personal email address, which is set up in iCloud. When I tried, the Send button stayed grayed out.

  • Why is my iMessage not working after update ios6

    I just updated my Ipod 4th gen to ios6 and my imessage will not send

    I called Apple Support after trying many fixes suggested online. They directed me to the procedure on the following page:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS4268?viewlocale=en_US
    I did the erase and restore option they suggested since I had tried a pile of ther things suggested on posts and blogs and they did not work. I even waited the obligatory 24 hours, thus the restore from backup option was what they suggested. I have a 64gig iPhone 4S and it took about 1.5 hours to complete the entire operation seeing that I am using about 54 gigs of that capacity.
    Warning: I lost all of my emails and all of the data files from one of my map programs so be sure you have everything that you really need from your phone store elsewhere before wiping your phone. I thought that the backup on my computer would restore everything but obviously NOT.
    Hope this helps.

  • IPad 2 front and back camera is not work after update iOS 7.0.4 it gives like the resolution is not adjusted

    After updating my ipad 2 to iOS 7.0.4 , front and back camera is not working it gives like very small dots or dash. I did restore from iTunes and reset by holding on the home and sleep button, I also tried to close the app from the task bar but still all trials didn't solve the problem.

    I haven't heard of this before so I doubt it's a bug. Probably something happened during the 7.04 download.
    Backup your iPhone to iTunes and restore it as a new iphone, then restore from the backup. This will give you a fresh copy of iOS 7.04.

  • IPod touch 3G displays white skin not working after update iOS 4

    During update ios 5  my iPod touch displays white blank skin and not working at all. How can I solve this problem.

    Try:
    - iOS: Not responding or does not turn on
    - Also try DFU mode after try recovery mode
    How to put iPod touch / iPhone into DFU mode « Karthik's scribblings
    - If not successful and you can't fully turn the iOS device fully off, let the battery fully drain. After charging for an least an hour try the above again.
    - If still not successful that usually indicates a hardware problem and an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store is in order.

  • My imessage not working after update to ios6

    I have all of my devices under one apple ID, iphone5, iphone 3gs (used as a ipod no number), ipod touch. Once I updated to io6 all heck broke loose. I can not imessage any of my devices nor does it show that imessage is working, ie blue text window. I have tried to go in and unpick imessage or turn it off. when I go to turn it back on it states still waiting for verification, this is on the iphone 3gs and the ipod. I have tried to just have the ipod have marked the email that is meant for it but it also has my mobile number listed from my apple ID which does not belong with the ipod at all so those two devices will not communicate. The 3gs has no number and is used as a ipod for my daughter, so it wants a phone # which there is none and I did not have to put that in before. I can not seem to get it to work at all with imessage.... Any help would be great I just am frustrated at this point with what was a simple feature seems to be a bust...
    Thanks in advance!

    I have found that I turn imessage back on and a few days later it turns itself back off so I have to go in and turn it back on again..........very annoying. I am having a lot of problems with 4GS sms and imessaging, and very slow sending texts since upgrade to IOS6 upgrade.
