Imessage not working sends as a text

and it tries to send as a txt but i dont have enough credit for it.. my imessage is on, hers is on too
im outta data but i use my wifi. anyone know whats up?

This link http://www.apple.com/support/systemstatus/ will give you information if any of the Apple server/services are down. It seems to be alright now, and I don't see where anything was down before.
@deetillman, I have not had an issue with my iMessage on AT&T today.

    You use Restore to get the latest firmware build, not the Update button. You can only use the Update button, if there is an iOS update, say iOS 5.1.
    this link talks about updating to 9A406 to fix the "No Service" issue with iPhone 4S:

  • Imessage not working in iphone 5

    Imessage not working on my iphone 5 and it is activated in setting !!!

    So what happens when you send an iMessage?

  • 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/

  • IMessage not working even after 'fix'

    My iMessage on my iPhone 4 is not working. Phone is updated to most recent update. Sends iMessages to some people but not others and the people who I cannot send to also can't send to me, regardless of being on wifi or mobile network. I have tried the turn off imessage, reset network settings etc but still no improvement. Would be very helpful if anyone could give me some advice?

    Macrumors posted a solution for this.  I used it and it seems to have worked for me.
    Here's what they said:
    1. Turn off iMessage in Settings > Messages
    2. Reset networking settings in Settings > General > Reset
    3. Reenable iMessage in Settings > Messages

  • 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.

  • IMessage not working on new Macbook Pro.

    iMessage not working on new Macbook Pro. Issue began after I downloaded latest version of Mountain Lion.  After every message it says delivered then immediately a red circle with exclamation point says message not delivered.  Any ideas?

    I can also no longer text on my computer or iPad.  Fine on iPhone.  Same as you - I can see everything up until a specific day.  But I didn't do any kind of update where it should have stopped.  And it stopped working on my computer and iPad at the same time.

  • Imessage not working propierly, doesnt show read below the message.

    imessage not working propierly, when I send a message its says delivered but when people read them I never get the read receipt below the message, i have the 4 gen ipod, please help!

    Here's how I fixed the issue.
    I did an iCloud backup
    Did a full reset
    Restored backup and guess what.... it didn't fix the problem.
    However.... here is what did fix the problem
    I went into Settings --> Messages
    Listed under the "Send & Receive" button it only showed one address listed.
    On the 'You can be reached by iMessage at'  it only had my email address there with a check mark.  My phone number was unchecked but i couldn't check it for some reason.  So what I did was click on my Apple ID at the Top and choose view account.  Entered in my password and that made the phone number show as checked.  Then I started getting iMessages on my iPhone again.  If that doesn't work.  Click on Apple ID at the top and choose LOCATION

  • IMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade! Feedback pls

    iMessage not working after iOS 5.1 upgrade, anybody experiencing this as well? Feedback please......

    You shouldn't have to hard restart and it shouldn't have anything to do with your router.  If anyone else runs into this problem try resetting the network settings on your phone.  All the steps to do this can be found here http://tekshot5.com/ios-5-1-imessage-fix/
    Edit: Some of us don't have the option of resetting our DNS servers.  I run my own for example for caching purposes.

  • HT5538 Why is my iMessage not working with other email address just says verifying but nothing happens been a week, 4 devices only I

    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 on 5S and iPad Air issues

    iMessage not working on 5S. Had 3 online chats with apple support but still not fixed. iPad air issues also; safari shuts down a lot on mine and my husbands iMessage not working. iMessage works on his 5S. Never had so many issues with Apple before. I receive SMS messages on 5S but no iMessage. It was suggested to me that I get a new sim or try another wifi, both seem odd given everything else works.
    My husband and I got our phones the same day, his works right, mine doesn't.
    iPad airs were purchased a month apart, mine works ok apart from safari shutdowns and his iMessage not working.
    Also the slider to answer calls on both phones not always working. Had to reboot one of them and it forced us to set it up again from scratch.
    Any ideas?

    restore from backup or restore as new.
