IMessage saying 'not registered'?

Well,
My friend recieved an iPod touch for her christmas and I wanted to set up imessage with her while speaking over msn. She got everying I did to set it up, like activation and that) and then e reached a bit of a problem. I typed in her e-mail address (which is correct) and it said that she is not registered with iMessage. I got her to put in my e-mail and it said this to her too. I have had my iPod for over a year now, it is the same genereation as hers and I have sent iMessages on it before so it isn't that my ipod is faulty or anything. Is there any solution to this problem? I have tried re-booting iMessage and it has made no difference.

Same story for me, but i my friend is my brother

My iMessage will not register that I have a phone number attached to the account on my mac. It only shows the email addresses. My iPhone and iPad work perfectly.

Hi Aurion23,
If you intend to keep using iCloud on your iPad, your best course of action would be to update your Apple ID/iCloud information so that you have a known password and it is associated with an active email address. You may find the following articles helpful:

TS2755 imessage saying not delivered

Why is imessage saying not delivered to only one of my contacts, all the other contacts I can send messages fine. I tried restarting the phone, I don't know what else I can do. Help please

Do you have another apple device with iMessage running on it? That was my problem I have a 5s and an ipad 2 and noticed if I turn iMessage off in the settings in my ipad I no longer get that not delivered message on my phone.

Imessages saying 'not delivered' . ANyone else having this problem?

imessage frequently says 'not delivered'. very frustrating!

Down in Washington DC too (on the web-site and in all IMAP clients), since about noon, local time. The "All services are online" at <http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/systemstatus/> looks quite annoying. Especially, since there are multiple threads reporting the same problem, all over the country and even abroad (UK).

Why is my iMessage say not sent, but will send?

Everyone I know using iMessage says they got my message, but my device says it did not deliver the message, also the problem is on my iPad.

iPad Charging
"The fastest way to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter.
iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter.
When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge, but only when it's in sleep mode.
Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain."

make sure you have good wifi/3G connection when sending imessage.

When trying to send a message an error says phone not registered in imessage.

When trying to send a message from my ipad some numbers say not registered with imessage. How do I register a number?

SCCM client not registering on some machines

Hello,
I am running across a strange problem that is only affecting some machines. We are imaging via OSD task sequence, 2012 R2 and some machines do not register properly with SCCM. When I say not registering, I mean it doesn't get its Site code and
missing most of its actions. Most machines that we image work fine, but the odd one doesn't register using the same task sequence that we use on other PC's. When I watch the task sequence steps go through I noticed that right after the installing SCCM
client step it boots right into windows. Basically skipping the steps we have set afterwards, the next step is to install some software (adobe reader, SCEP, and a few others).
I also noticed it seems to happen more often with certain model machines. I have an HP Z420 and an HP Folio 9470m. These consistently fail to register everytime I image.
I've tried quite a few fixes I found online, but nothing has worked as of yet. The most recent fix I tried was to delete the hardware inventory and then rebuild it. That did not work. Entering SMSMP= in the Setup Windows and Config manager step also did
not work. I also tried entering in our DNS server into the registry under the CCM directory. It appears something is happening during the client install (or not happening). But why only certain machines? Most work fine.
Our fix is to simply re-install the client after imaging, this solution has been working for us but I want to find a more permanent solution.
Any ideas?

Jason,
We have this line in the Setup Config Manager,
PATCH=C:\_SMSTaskSequence\OSD\PNS00002\Updates\configmgr2012ac-r2-kb2970177-x64.msp
Keep in mind, that this same task sequence works fine with most other machines. It almost appears to be model specific. Certain models definitely have more issues registering than others.
I'm still fairly new to SCCM, so if you need more from the logs let me know.

Hey joshuafromisr,
If you resintall iTunes, it should fix the issue. The following document will go over how to remove iTunes fully and then reinstall. Depending on what version of Windows you're running you'll either follow the directions here:
Removing and Reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows XP

or here:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7

Best,

I attempt to send an e-mail to an address in my Directory and it comes up in a pink block with a red circled exclamation point at the end. "Clicking" on the circle brings a pop-up saying the address is not registered for iMessages. How do I register ??

When I try to address an e-mail to an address in my iPad's Directory, the name comes up inside a pink block with a red circled exclamation point at the right hand end. "Clicking" on the red circle, gives me a pop-up saying the address is not registered for an iMessage. How do I register my Directory addresses for an iMessage??

IMessage stops working on my Macbook Pro by saying users are not registered

I can be using iMessage and then when I go to send a message in the middle of a conversation it says the user is not registered with iMessage and cant send the message. I go and try to send a message to another person and the same message appears. It randomly does this and I dont know why. Thanks

Launch the Console application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Console in the icon grid.
Make sure the title of the Console window is All Messages. If it isn't, select All Messages from the SYSTEM LOG QUERIES menu on the left. If you don't see that menu, select
View ▹ Show Log List
from the menu bar.
Click the Clear Display icon in the toolbar. Then try the action that you're having trouble with again. Select any messages that appear in the Console window. Copy them to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Paste into a reply to this message (command-V).
When posting a log extract, be selective. In most cases, a few dozen lines are more than enough.
Please do not indiscriminately dump thousands of lines from the log into this discussion.
Important: Some private information, such as your name, may appear in the log. Anonymize before posting.
