IMessage not working with one single contact

My iPhone has stopped sending iMessages to one singular contact. Before today we have been using iMessage to communicate regularly. This is the only contact that iMessage does to not work with on my phone and on his he can iMessage me but I don't receive these messages. Also in group chats we can no longer communicate due to this issue.

Did anyone fix this problem?
This just happened to me yesterday!  I have iOS 7.1, had no issues until yesterday!
I can iMessage my iMessage friends on my iPad with no problem, but the iPhone 5 randomlly decided yesterday that it would only iMessage selective people!
I've tried everthing I can find so far.

  • 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 working for one iphone contact?

    For one particular contact, I am unable to send messages through iMessage and they instead send as texts. Both of us have iPhones and have checked the settings. I reset my iMessage, and also restarted my phone but the messages continue to send as texts. Is there any way to fix this?

    I had this problem, I fixed it by editing the mobile number in contacts. Just deleted the last digit and typed it back in. I thought the contact had iMessage turned off, and her go through settings but it was set correctly. It seems the early iOS 7 iMessage issues caused this issue in later version of iOS 7.1.x
    I had two contacts I had to do this to.

  • 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.

    I have done this but it does not work with one of my albums and I dont know why??

    That would be it. Sometimes you can tweak the album & artist names enough for iTunes to download matching art from the store, or you could add a bonus track featuring 1 second of silence and attach artwork to that, or you could convert the files to Apple Lossless.

  • 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 with iphone 4

    my imessage stopped working with my iphone 4.  it was working but then i had to restore it because it got deleted by mistake.  i've since restored it twice and it's still not working

    Apps and contacts can by synced back to the device through iTunes. The backup handles different content. This support document http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4946 tells you what is in the backup. If that doesn't matter to you, you can restore as a new device and see if that helps. There could be something in the backup that is creating the problem.

    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:

    Hello Jonahfromnm,
    You may need to unlink, then relink your phone number with your Apple ID.

    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 re-create the contact in the Contacts application. Create a new message to the newly created contact and try again.
    Back up and restore your device as new.
