  • IPad iMessage doesn't work with new iOS 7.02

    Need help... All Setzlings are correct

    I had a similar problem but I still received messages on iMessage, the problem with mine was the send button didn't work i.e. nothing happens when I press send. I don't even get the alert. So after viewing this discussion, I decided to try restarting my iPad by turning it off and on again as suggested by this page. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430
    This resolved my problem and I guess that's why it's recommended to always restart a device after it has installed or updated anything.

I would sign in to set it up, pick an email I wanted to use, but then it would take me back to the sign in screen with no explination. I'm getting really annoyed. I NEEED IMESSAGE. HELP

  • Imessage won't work/activate after 5.1

    I updated to 5.1 this morning, and now my imessage won't work. I try to turn it on, and I just get an activation error. "An error occurred during activation, try again".I've read in some other posts that my phone number should show by the imessage option? I don't see it anywhere. Once I get the activation error, then it provides me with the option to sign in using my appleID, but it when I do, it just keeps on reverting back to the sign in screen and won't connect. I've read through this forum and tried everything that I found - checked the date/time settings, checked my phone number, reset the networks, hard reset - and still it won't activate. What do I do?

    Mine didn't work for 2 months and this fixed it, so I posted it in another discussion and have been getting "thank you" replies nearly daily:
    Just update your date/time settings:
    Settings
    > General
    >> Date & Time
    >>> Set Automatically:  Slide "ON"...If it's already on, then slide it off, chill for a bit (maybe restart it), then slide it back on.
    I am using an iPhone 4 with iOS 5.1, but other users with 3GS, 4S, and even iTouch devices replied that it worked.

  • IMessage won't work and no notifications at all for any messages please help

    iMessage won't work I know there is a problem but now I'm not getting any text notifications please help! Won't even vibrate

    If you are having trouble with SMS messages, then you would need to address that with your carrier, unless you are receiving them and just not get a notification. If you have followed the steps I gave you for iMessage and you are not receiving notifications, then check the settings for Notification Center. If you have Messages set to show on the lock screen and play a sound, and display a banner, etc. then your next step is a restore. First restore from a backup, and if that doesn't work, then restore as a new device. Restoring the phone will result in the loss of all data. Make sure you have backed up the phone, synced all content and imported photos to the computer.

  • My iMessage won't work on my iPhone 4.

  • IMessage won't work with 1 contact. (iOS7)

    iPhone 4s with iOS7
    iMessage won't work with only 1 specific contact.
    Prior to updating i was able to iMessage with the contact in question without issue.
    Both of us updated to iOS7 yesterday, since then messages between us are Text Messages only. We screwed around with everything. We discovered if i send to his email address (checkmarked with iMessage) it works. ALSO...after searching and trying different things, he can send me iMessages from his number, but when i respond it switches SMSs . FaceTime also works.
    It works with all my other contacts without issues.
    We both tried the following.
    - deleting eahcother as contacts,
    - resets (many)
    - turned off iMessage (reset network settings)
    - logging in and out of appleID in several locations
    - removed checkmarks from emails/phone number
    - on WiFi, on 3G
    - phone restore
    Start new conversation: only my phone # is checkmarked. receinve, I have 3 emails and phone number
    any ideas?

    Elements 13 won't work with new camera, it won't update to raw 8.7.1. I have downloaded the patch, it is installed but the old version is this there in elements. Thanks, esther

    OK I think the problem is probably related to the platform swap and you may need your account re-set. Only Adobe staff can do that.  You need to contact Adobe directly using the link below. Use the dropdown menu for boxes (1) & (2) to scroll down the list and choose:
    1. Adobe Photoshop Elements
    2. Adobe ID, and signing-in
    3. Click on the blue button: Still need help? Contact us – then click the area marked chat 24/7, then click “start chat ”
    It’s usually possible to start a live chat, if an Adobe agent is free, and often to get the problem fixed right away. Have your serial number and previous case number available. The agent can directly troubleshoot your system if you agree to activate the Adobe Connect add-on.
