You can't send SMS messages with the iOS messages app. It only works with other iOS devices. The user that you want to message with must also be set up and registered to use the messages app on their device or you will not be able to contact them.

I've updated my sw to the iOS 6 on my 4s now iMessage won't let me send pictures
I cannot send iMessage pictures to other iPhone users since the iOS 6 software update. I've done some testing and it appears that it's only affecting 4s users. Is anyone having this issue?

I've been texting my friend with iMessage with wifi on and all of a sudden it changed to text message and won't let me send messages. My wifi is still on and working but it won't switch back to iMessage. Please help
What I recommend you try doing first is to turn iMessage off then back on. If that doesn't work, make sure that your Apple ID and password are correct. If everything seems correct and you still can't send out messages using iMessage instead of text message, I think you should either try calling AppleCare at 1-800-MY-IPHONE (1-800-694-7466) and/or scheduling an appointment at the Genius Bar at an Apple Store (that is, if there's one close to you).
Hope this helps! -
My friend switched his phone number from an iPhone to a Blackberry. My phone still wants to use iMessage to send him a text and won't let me send it as a text unless I turn off iMessage on my phone. Is there a fix for this?

TechCrunch posted a solution today that applies to this problem, I think.
Go to: https://supportprofile.apple.com/MySupportProfile.do
Click your old iPhone and "unregister" it.

IPhone won't let me send messages to more than 2 contacts at a time
My iPhone suddenly won't let me send messages to more than 2 contacts at a time. This is annoying as I want to send out a group SMS to people.
Any suggestions? I'm using the latest update to the operating system.
Cheers.It would appear that I can send an SMS to multiple contacts, providing that it's not a forwarded message. This means that I have to start from scratcheach time, and then I can send it to over 30 recipients at a time. Not sure why though, and I'm not sure why the sign doesn't appear all of the time as an option for me to press. At other times, it is particially obscured by the curser/text box. This is obviously a glitch in the system, as it happens inconsistently.

My iMessage won't let me text one specific person but will let message anyone else and also it keeps freezing and exiting out without letting me reply to the other person can someone please help me it's really aggravating and frustrating please and thank you my fellow apple users friends

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Go to Settings>Messages>Send and Receive and sign ut and sign back in
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device. -
So, I've been trying to access my account to purchase a song, and I had to answer my security questions. Well, I haven't answered them in like a year or so, and I forgot the answers, and it won't let me send a rescue email though I have two verified rescue email addresses. .-. Pease help!
Use the link to contact the iTunes Store staff in the 'Additional Information' section of that article; if you didn't previously set up a valid rescue email address, which isn't the same as an alternate email address, only Apple itself can assist with recovering lost answers.

I'm having some problems wiht Firefox, for example; Youtube isn't loading right, Facebook won't let me send messages, search up people, and this website i made wont load right also. I've re-installed and updated it but still the same problems. Any help?
Because I know enough to be dangerous... I was trying to extend the two outside columns down.... Instead of just using faux columns which I have fixed since I posted the question.
The other link problem is the left sidebar links. When you go to the event photos page I have a repeat of the sidebar links that are on the newsletter page. I used named anchors on the newsletter page to link to the particular article. From the Event Photos page the links look like this:
<a href="1112Visions_Iss1.html/#puzzle" target="_self">[Puzzle]</a>
The problem I am having is that some of these go to the newsletter page and the anchor and some do not (I get an error message saying it can't find the page). To add to the problem is that when we choose say the President's Message, when it goes to the newsletter page and the correct anchor, the newsletter page is missing all the links to the graphics... the photos are missing the graphic for the faux columns is missing. It makes no sense. When I preview the newsletter page from Dreamweaver everything shows up fine.
I do not know if all of this is being caused because I haven't posted this stuff to the site or what. I've tried re-booting both the browser and Dreamweaver, dumping the cache and still the same nonsense.
Got any ideas?
