IMessage Question/Issue

Hi All,
I did search on my issue, but found the number of (irrelevant) results pretty daunting to navigate through.  I'm sure I have a setting incorrect or just misunderstand how iMessage works, etc., but here's the situation:
On two occasions recently this has happened...I send a text from my iPhone to a friend, who is also an iPhone user.  His response shows up in Messages on my iPad, which is sitting at home.  I don't receive the response on my iPhone.
What am I doing wrong?  And I guess it's possible that it's not me, as I've only noticed it with two friends and they're not the only ones that use iPhones.
If it matters, I have 6.0 on my iPhone, and 6.0.1 on the iPad.
Thanks!

Wow.  Well there's a "duh" moment for me.  It used to be turned on, but at some point was turned off.  Didn't even think to check (which is really embarassing considering my background).
Thanks for your help!

  • W540 Questions & Issues

    Hi Folks,
    Questions & Issues:
    1.  Where is the Break key on the W540?
    2.  My W540 locks up about once every two days - there does not appear to be any common task that causes this.  When it lock nothing works, not Ctrl+Alt+Del, I must power off with the power button.  Any comments or suggestions?
    Observations:
    I'm not a fan of the new keyboard.  For example, the F1..F12 keys are difficult to read (the F parts, not the pictures) and the off center feel leads to difficult typing (at least for me). 
    TIA

    Hi SD
    1. Try Fn+B for Break
    Refer to this post for more information.
    1.2.
    2. Go to Start > Lenovo > System Update. Install all Critical and Recommended Updates.
    3. If No.2 does not work, go to Task Manager > Startup > Try uncheck a few which is optional. Do not uncheck Lenovo Stuffs and Antivirus.

  • ... several questionable issues ...

    Hello everyone,
    Issue 1 - Is there a search function to narrow the 12000 topics to handful I can manage?
    Issue 2 - Is LightRoom a better (faster, more specific with metadata, and speedier) than Bridge for a cataloging/browsing tool?
    Issue 3 - In LR, we've discovered we can catalog audio interviews by using the .wav files and giving them the same name as the image of the person being interviewed. (JimmyPic01.tif is paired with JimmyPic01.wav, JimmyPic02.tif is paired with JimmyPic02.wav - we give the image the metadata about the date and time of the interview, etc.) Now, is there a limit to the size of the .wav file associated with an image? Will our researchers be able to click on the .wav file and listen to the entire interview? Is it possible to alter the program used to open the .wav files in order to permit fast forward and replay functions? Does the audio player in LR permit those functions?
    Issue 4 - Does Adobe build a catalog package with the elegance of LR (pleasant-looking interfaces and speedy searches) and the simplicity and power of Bridge (catalog audio, video, and documents)? Does LR permit the creation of metadata fields as easily as Bridge?
    I guess many of these questions will get answered if I simply install a copy and play a while. . .?
    Okay . . . I'm off to see the download wizard. . .
    I'll come back and let everyone know what I find as well as see who contributes to my quest. . . (grin)
    Until that time. . . Earl J.

    Hello Wolf,
    Horace Walpole once stated
    The whole [Scotch] nation hitherto has been void of wit and humour, and even incapable of relishing it.
    So, perhaps this Lightroom forum is more like Scotland than is evident at first glance... (grin) I'm not familiar with the source of your quote... most professionals don't get that status until they have practiced their craft for many years... so, consider me a
    professional-in-training ... or
    amateur, if you like.
    Yet, another misunderstanding on the readers' part... I am fully aware that my comments here on the forum would draw as much attention from Adobe to ban me than my opinions on global warming would attract the attention of the new administration in DC... I was addressing the three initial responders to my original post and inviting them to do what they will to avoid my intrusions.
    My questionable issues revolved around issues of the program which caused me to ask questions for further clarification - there were never any
    objectionable issues raised... simply a few questionable ones.
    I have no intention of letting anyone drive me away while my curiosity for the program is still fresh and vibrant. I'll continue to be me and will permit others to be who they are ... I have no expectations about any aspect of these forums except that most subscribers come here 1 -
    to learn and 2 -
    to help. Finding and making friends might be an ancillary benefit, but for the most part, I would suspect not a primary objective.
    I base my knowledge on forum, email distribution list, and listserv memberships as the creator/moderator of a librarian forum that has recently moved past its decade-old mark... and the current host of several social networks.
    So, although I am new to
    this forum, I am not new to participating in them. I can appreciate the fact that many may not, and will not, accept my approaches to bulletin boards and email interactions; however, it's a big forum, and I am not required, or inclined, to follow any personal preference demands, content restrictions, or behavioral limitations of anyone outside the Terms of Use.
    So, I'll do the best I can at adjusting and adapting in order to get help and give help - but for those who demand the rest of us adjust to their expectations and behavioral norms, they'll have to do a bit of adjusting and adapting themselves ... if nothing else, just to demonstrate they
    can do something that they demand of others.
    @Wolf, thanks for the advice and the encouragement ... I will consider it seriously.
    Thanks for taking the time to respond and compose such a considerate response... I'm a retired Army paratrooper, so
    bail out has such a negative connotation to me - even before the economic crisis began - so I'm not about to leave until all the questions I have are answered.
    Until that time. . . Earl J.

  • Syncing Audio with Merge Clips option and OMF export question/issue

    Hi,
    In the past when I've edited video, when it came to syncing audio I always did it manually.  This time, using Premiere Pro CC, I used the merge clips option, to speed up the syncing audio process, which was a huge time saver with excellent results.
    The question/issue I have..is that when I get my OMF exported for my sound editor, will this screw anything up, since on the project file, it doesn't use the original audio file, but the one that was merged.  And in the project list, I don't even need to have the original audio file listed, since it's already been merged into a clip, which I used in the project.  I know it's the same file used, but will it mess anything up since a merged clip audio was used instead of just dragging the original track onto the timeline? 
    - Ken

    A good way to know for sure (and therefore feel comfortable that you're doing the right thing) is to do a test OMF export, then open this in Audition. This ill show you exactly what you're exporting.

  • Adobe Photoshop Touch Question / Issue

    Hello,
    I bought Adobe Photoshop Touch some time ago for my Samsung Galaxy Tab 8.9 and I liked it so much. Of all the apps I had for photo editing, this one gave me all I need. I used to own Adobe Photoshop CS2 on my old PC so I wanted something for my tab as well. I was very satisfied by this app until my tab died some time ago. After a pain of service and repairs, the tab worked again but it had a new issue. Anytime I used the device on something more demanding (i.e. playing games ) the tab overheated a lot and the screen started to touch itself very much as, if it was pressed all the time. After some time of struggle with it I decided to wipe it clean and pass it out to a family member who would maybe dedicate more time to fix it.
    Last month I bought myself a new device ( Sony Xperia Z ) and I was eager to get all my data on it and apps of course. To my sadness Adobe Photoshop Touch is not compatible with my device now, and it just sits there in my app list doing nothing . I could install only Photoshop Express but it does not give me the full access I had with Touch. I saw that there is another product called Photoshop Touch for smartphones and it seems to be the same as what I had only phone edition.
    My problem is that I can not get this new app unless I pay for it and I do not wish to do that because I already paid for the previous edition.
    My question is: Can I somehow obtain the Smartphone edition and the previous version ( which apparently is for tablets I suppose ) be removed from my Google Play account. I would purchase the smartphone version but there is no point in having 1 app 2 times.
    I would happily like the staff to remove my previous version from my account if they would gave me the smartphone version and I acknowledge that the tab app was more expensive than the smartphone version and Adobe will not refund me the money difference nor are they obligated to give me the smartphone version. I am just asking if it would be possible because I like that app and it's such a shame for it to be in my app list and not be used. Thank you for your time in reading this and no matter what answer I get, I will be ok with it. Have a nice day .

    I don't think you'll have much luck. PS Touch for tablets was designed for just tablets; PS Touch for phones was designed for just phones. Touch for phones came out a little later than Touch for tablets. (By several months, if I recall.) On the brighter side, if you ended up buying Touch for phones, you'd be covered no matter which device you had.
    Both are very similar in function. I believe the only differences are their UIs; Touch for tablets is landscape-oriented-specific while Touch for phones is portrait-oriented. (Some elements are also placed differently.) I imagine this allows for maximum utilization of screen real estate and element placement.

  • I'm having issues with iMessage. It works fine on wifi and I receive messages as iMessage without issue in network or wifi. However as I send a message it starts as iMessage then says not delivered. Then sends as SMS since I have it enabled.

    iMessage works on wifi without issue. However I receive messages on network but can't send. I send a message it starts sending as iMessage ten says it can't send. Then starts to send as SMS since it's enabled. I have reset network sertings, updated to ios7, etc and done about 3 othe suggested in order resets to get it to work and it still hasn't started working when I'm not on wifi. Any suggestions?
    It's a iPhone 4S. I have two iPhones. One setup to receive iMessage just to its phone number. Therapeutic to receive to its phone and email. I wouldn't think that would be the issue as all 3 are separate. Bone the same going to both phones.
    Thanks for the help!!!

  • How do I delete or change my number in my old iPhone, so that I can still use it for iMessages without issue?

    I have an iPhone 4S that was with Verizon. About a week ago I ported into Virgin Mobile and bought a new phone to use until the next iPhone comes out. I now still have my old iPhone, which I want to use for iMessages, as well as like an iPod, etc.
    The issue I am seeing is that my phone number is still registered to my iPhone and I haven't yet figured out how to delete it or change it. The problem this is causing is it is making my iPhone sometimes intercept messages from those with iMessage who are texting my phone number. The messages should be going to my new phone, not my iPhone, since they are texting my phone number (not my iMessage email) and my iPhone has no service connected to it.
    Here's an example of what I'm trying to say: the other day I texted a guy selling an item online. I used my new phone to text him, not my iPhone. He texted me right back, but the text went to my iPhone, not my new phone. We then texted each other via iMessage and no texts were making it to my new phone.
    I think this is also causing some messages to not go through on my new phone either, where I'm just simply not getting texts from people sending me messages. My iPhone isn't getting the messages, nor is my new phone.
    What I need to do is delete my number or put a random number in my phone so that I don't keep missing or losing texts. I saw the ways recommended to disconnect your number from iMessage, but that then kills my ability to use iMessage on my iPhone. There must be a way that the number in my iPhone can be changed or deleted. We are in 2013 I think, and this was something I always had the option of changing via manual programming on every phone I've had since 1902 or so.
    How to do this?!

    I also already deleted my phone number from iMessage on my MBP.

  • WD Java iView Creation Question/Issue - CE 7.1 EHP 1 Trial

    Hi all,
    Im posting this question here seeing as that the issue has arrised on an installation of the AS JAVA and EP shipped with CE 7.1 EHP1 Trial.
    When attempting to create an iView for a deployed custom WD Java app on the trial Portal I am taken straight to the iView template selection without being given the options for iView creation( ie. create from template, portal component or WD Java app). Is this by design ( WD Java iView creation has changed from previous Portal versions or is limited in Trial installation), is this an issue with the components shipped with the Trial or an issue on my installation only?
    Currently my only solution for deploying WD java content is to copy the actual application and paste it as Portal content which then creates a WD Proxy page with a single WD Proxy iView (that of the copy pasted WD app). This is fine for single app scenarios but becomes an issue with multiple apps on one page and drag and relate scenarios.
    Kind regards,
    Willem.

  • 2 iTunes questions/issues

    I had to recently reinstall Snow Leopard, now I have to issues. 1) when I double click on songs in my iTunes the music doesn't play. I have to right click and then hit play, how do I enable double click again? 2) my iTunes is now set as my default internet music player, how do I change this? 3) a General question, my DSL was with Verizon, now that has been transferred to Frontier. When navigating to web sites it seems that there is an issue with Frontier & Safari. How do I know this? I changed my PC to Safari from Explorer and now I am having the same issue on both my iMac and PC...no wonder they were trying to push me to Foxfire. Is anyone else having this issue, and have you been able to resolve it?

  • IPhoto '11 Questions / Issues

    I upgraded to iPhoto '11 as soon as it became available. As I have been working with it and trying to update all of my old photos with titles, descriptions, locations, etc, I have found a few things that either are bugs with iPhoto, or I just haven't figured out how to do them yet.
    First, when setting a location on a photo, the only way I have found to do it is to go into the info screen, then use the small map in the corner to place the marker. Is there a way to get a full-sized map when locating photos?
    Second, I have been having some issues with Faces. When I am looking in the info screen for a picture, some pictures show that I have xx number of unnamed faces, where xx could be any number. However, when I look at the picture, I can't find any spot in the photo where there is the box around a section of the photo with the "unnamed" label below it. Why is it showing that I have unnamed faces if there are no markers on the photo?
    Also with Faces, I have tried using the feature where I can look at and name 5 pictures at a time. I have 2 questions with regards to this feature. First, is it possible, especially while in full-screen mode to look at more than 5 faces at a time, and second, why does it keep having me rename the same photos over and over again that are all from the same photo?
    And finally, another Faces issue, after I mark some Faces through the feature where I name multiple faces at once, I have looked at some photos and it shows a person's name, but it will have the box around a completely different person? Any ideas?
    Thanks in advance.

    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. Regarding the locations see my post HERE.
    Can't help you with faces as I don't use that feature.

  • More XControl questions / issues

    XControl 1, X1, has two other XControls, X2 and X3, on its
    block diagram
    When I open a VI with X1 on it, the Init ability is called
    for X2 and X3 three times each.  X1’s
    Init ability is called one time.  (The
    other VIs you see pop up are called from X2 and X3 as a result of Init
    executing, so they illustrate the Init calls. 
    They close when Uninit is called, and you can see as much when you close
    the VI and project)
    When I close said VI, the Uninit ability is called for X1
    and called twice for X2 and X3.  This, of
    course, leaves one instance of X2 and X3 left open.  Consequently, references and VI’s I opened as
    a result of the Init call are left open (you notice the two subvi's still open). 
    Once I close the project, the Uninit abilities are called
    for X2 and X3, closing the remaining resources.
    There is a file in the folder called log.txt I write to in
    the init and Uninit abilities for each XControl.  If you open it after each step you can see
    what I’m talking about.
    Additional things: 
    After I close the VI, but not the project, X2 and X3 are of course
    locked.  When I right click “Unlock this
    library for Editing”, LabVIEW crashes with a .cpp error.  http://forums.ni.com/t5/LabVIEW/Error-when-I-Unlock-Library-for-Editing-with-XControl/m-p/1009044#M4...
    My real project loads the XControls (and executes the Init ability) as soon as it opens for
    some reason, and makes it nearly impossible to edit them unless I close and open the
    XControls individually, due to the .cpp error above.
    Questions
    Is it expected that an XControl an another XControl should be called more than once?
    Why don't they get unloaded when the main XControl is closed and unloaded?
    Why the .cpp error?

    Hello elset191
    Here is the Corrective Action Request that references your issue.  I have included you as a customer whom this problem is affecting.
    Request #: 302463
    Description: XControls remain open after corresponding VI is closed and crash occurs, XControl cpp error in LabVIEW 8.6.1f1 (Fatal Internal Error: "ThEvent.cpp", line 184) 
    I'm sorry that this has been a frustration to you.  The fastest way to resolve this issue appears to upgrade.  Have you attempted to reproduce this error in LabVIEW 2010 SP1?  I was unable to reproduce this situation in LabVIEW 2010 SP1.
    The CPP error is due to some issue with how this has been internally developed.  It appears to have been resolved in LabVIEW 2010 SP1 as do the other issues you have been dealing with.  Can you please confirm this for me?  I am happy to further address this issue to ensure your success.  All the best!

  • IMessage sender issues

    I share my apple account between several devices. For some reason lately when I use iMessage it is changing the user name or the sender name from the user that it should be (me). Anyone have any ideas how to fix this so it shows as the correct sender?

    I've noticed this happening too. My wife & I both have the iPhone 4S and since we got the iPad last Friday we noticed iMessages working oddly. If I send her a message via iMessages from my phone it sometimes will show up on her phone as if she had sent it to herself. And if I'm using iMessages on the iPad the conversation automatically shows up on her phone and even an old iPhone 3GS that our son uses as an iPod touch. I thought it might be because we just got the iPad but now I'm thinking it's a wider issue.
    Any help would be great!
    Thanks.

    If you turn off iMessage, anyine sendiny you a text will be sent as SMS.
    And turning off iMessage does not stop non-iPhone users from sendding you text messages.
    Contact your carrier to temporarily disable text messaging.

  • I don't understand the imessage question when setting up my iPad Air

    What is the question asking and how do you answer it?

    IIRC, you are being asked if you want to associate email addresses and your iPhone number with iMessages and Facetime. If you don't care to use either app, you can deselect email addresses or skip that step and set it up later. If you want to use Messages and Facetime, and you do not have an iPhone, you have to use an email address as your contact at address for both apps. You can associate multiple email addresses if you want to do so.
    If my assumption is incorrect or if my memory failed me, please be more specific.
