IMessage not working on ipad2 with wifi only

Hi-
I just purchased an iPad. The iMessage feature is not working at all. I have an iphone4 and I message works fine. Every time I try to send with the iMessage it says message failed. I was trying to send it to another apple user. I believe that you can't send to people who do not have apple Ids.
Please let me know no to fix it.

Ok... That makes sense. However I sent a message to a fiend it said message send figure on the iPad but I guess went though my phone cause she was able to answer it and the response went to the iPad.

  • IMessage not working on iPad2 & iPhone5 iOS6

    hi guys
    weird error message, while trying to activate my iMessage for my iPad and iPhone with my Apple ID:
    "the user name or password for [email protected] was incorrect. Try again."
    whilst I can still use iMessage with the iPhone (by defining the cell phone number) I am not able at all to activate it for the iPad2.
    Facetime on my iPhone5 the same issue.
    Ensured that my apple ID password is correct by downloading an APP - working
    changed the Apple ID password as well - still same error message...
    any suggestions? #iamlost
    Thanks

    nobody?

  • IMessage not working after updating with iOS 6.1.3

    My son's iPhone will not 'activate' iMessage after he updated to iOS 6.1.3.
    Tried resetting.
    Tried switching iMessage on and off.
    Tried Setting/WiFi/Tap blue dot/Renew Lease
    Any other ideas?
    Other features seem to be working as normal.
    Thanks.

    Nope still can't get it to work ChrisJ4203
    Tried the Send & Receive button. The Apple Id is correct but there is no 'tick' next to the correct telephone number. Number is greyed out so can't click on it.
    Any ideas?

  • Mirroring not working on ipad2 with Westinghouse tv

    I connected my ipad2 to my Westinghouse TV using the new adapter and an hdmi cable. It sends my tv into cycle of detecting screens but then just gives up and no mirroring. Has anyone else had this problem? Are there settings I need to change on the iPad or the tv to make this work?

    Ok... That makes sense. However I sent a message to a fiend it said message send figure on the iPad but I guess went though my phone cause she was able to answer it and the response went to the iPad.

  • I have an ipad2 with wifi which I am planning taking abroad. Can I use one of those prepaid USB devices to acces Internet not having 3G? Is there a way around this

    Other than using wifi I have been trying to see if I can use my iPad2 to access the Internet. I don't really want to upgrade to 3G now as ihave alredy purchased my ipad2 with wifi only.

    Not if they could get a microSIM from a local carrier that supported tethering. Plus I believe that I have heard that various US carriers have a different roaming rate for data than for phone calls which is not as expensive, OCICBW.

  • I have an ipad2 with wifi and 3G.  My wife and I are traveling in France (Nice) then into Italy.  We are unable to purchase a data plan because our Verizon IPad will not accept a sims chip...we are told.  We were advised that this model wound work in Euro

    I have an ipad2 with wifi and 3G.  My wife and I are traveling in France (Nice) then into Italy.  We are unable to purchase a data plan because our Verizon IPad will not accept a sim chip...we are told.  An Apple store employee here said this model is good only in the US. The iPads here take a sim card. We were advised by an Apple Store Employee at home that this model would work in Europe and that we could buy our service here.  That does not seem to be the case.    We have been told that we must invest in a modem at 200.00€ and then purchase a separate service plan for each country. We can use the free wifi wherever it is available but we cannot connect to the outside world when out of range. Is there anything else we can do?
    Thanks, John

    Unfortunately, no other solution is available.
    Hope this helps

  • Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number

    Why does my imessage not work with only 1 phone number? It keeps going to imessage and then back to text message

    Both you and the recipient have to have active data connections, and both devices have to have iOS 5 or higher to be able to use iMessage. Also, they both have to have iMessage activated. If that is already the case, there is a possiblility that iMessage is down. It has gone up and down several times in the past week. Check this page for status, and if necessary you can report a problem with a link in the lower right corner. http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/

    Hey Mgpr,
    There's an article that helps with troubleshooting steps for issues activating iMessage that I think is worth a look. See if any of the suggested steps work for you:

  • IMessage not working with some contacts

    I have ipad2, iMessage not working with contacts except between my son and my iPad.  Get a red exclamation mark and send button is greyed out.  Have rebooted, reactivated apple id and email address.  Running latest software. Can anyone help please.

    Imessage only works to other folks who have a device on ios5, and who have activated i message.  In their set up, theyndeclared one or more specific 'receive at' addresses.  Are the folks you are trying to reach on apple devices with i mesage?  The red exclamation means, i think, that the apple server did not find that address as registered.
