Imessages won't deliver after cell number change

My husband and I recently changed our cell phone numbers, and now imessages won't deliver between us. We both have iphone 4, ios5.1, and we had no issues at all until we changed numbers. We share an apple id, so I've already deleted the id from my phone under Settings/messages/receive at so that it only shows my cell number. But I still cannot send an imessage to him. I can send imessages to other friends with iphones, but not his for some reason. any ideas??

I'm having a similar issue with my iPhone 5. A friend of mine is using his iPod to text me and using his email address and my phone was fine three hours ago (at 3:00pm central time), but now it won't send any of my iMessages... I've signed out of my Apple ID and made sure Facetime was enabled... and it won't send!

IMessages won't open after Mavericks upgrade

iMessages won't open after I upgraded to Mavericks. I keep getting prompted to "enter the keychain password," but I never created a keychain. I never used it before the upgrade, and I skipped the step during the upgrade because I did not want to use keychain and it was an option to skip it during set up.

HI,
The OS X Mac have been using Keychains for a long time.
In the Applications/Utilities folder open Keychain Access.
This should show you at least two keychains.
The Login one for your Mac User account and the System one.
Generally speaking the Keychain keeps the passwords used by various apps and it needs to be Open.
In most cases the Login password for the Mac Account user is also the password that opens the Keychian when the computer is started up.
As each Mac User Account owns it's own Keychain there can be issues when you drag an account from one computer to another rather than using Migration Assistant.
i.e. you might Own it on one computer but not on another.
In the Finder > Go Menu hold down the ALT key and select the Library that appears.
In the library navigate to Keychains.
Click to highlight the Login one.
Now use the CMD and i keys together (Get Info)
At the Bottom unlock the padlock
Highlight the name that has (me) next to it (it should be your Shortname).
Once you have highlighted this use the cogwheel item at the bottom.
This should be greyed out but saying "Make you (Me) the Owner."
You should also have Read and Write permissions like in the Pic.

TS4268 iMessages won't send after updating to iOS 7?

I have updated to iOS 7.0.2 and I can receive iMessages but cannot send them. I have tried the trick of turning it off and then resetting network settings but this hasn't worked. Does anyone have any other solutions?

I have an iPhone4 and upgraded to iOS 7.1.
Since then imessage does not work properly on the iPhone4.
iMessage is working on my iPad normally.
I have reset network settings after turning iMessage off.
Turned iMessage back on.
iMessage is activiating and after doing the above.
I have also turned the phone off (Held home and power buttons for 10 seconds etc)
Other devices cannot reach the phone using iMessage.
My local Brisbane Apple store said last Friday evening it was most likely not the device and there was a problem in the 'cloud' side of iMessage out of my control.
This does not seem to be the case as I search for the thousands of people this would most likely affect.
I had a brief period where it appeared to work normally a few days ago.
Inerestingly when addressing a message in the 'To:' screen iMessage capable names come up blue as if they are about to be addressed and sent as an imessage. Once selecting the name however it turns green as if to say this will be sent as a text.
I am at a loss at what to do. The phone was working perfectly well under iOS6x
Thanks

IMessage won't send after changing

Hi All,
I haven recently changed the email address associated with my itunes account and have updated all of the options on my iphone to match, facetime, icloud, imessage etc.
Since doing this however i am unable to send or receive any iMessages.
The settings in my message tab are as follows:
iMessage >>> ON
Send Read Receipts >>> OFF
Send As SMS >>> OFF
Receive At >>> 2 Addresses
                    --- Apple ID (my new email address)
                    --- You can be reached for messages at:
                         *Phone (my phone number)
                         *Email (my new email address)
Caller ID >>> (my phone number)
This is really starting to bug me, any help will be greatly appreciated.
I have tried hard rebooting the phone (home + lock until apple logo)

Imessage can not delivered after i success to setting up

after i success to setup the Imessage from the general]setting , i try to send imessage ,msg appers in red "NOT DELIVERED" even it is seems all setting is ok.
please i need help.

I've been having this problem too, but here's the catch: originally it was only with my dad, and only sometimes. Now it's dad and husband, every time! Pix go through, via imessage, to everyone else, and they go through to dad/husband if I "send as text" after it fails.
And the other annoying thing- the blue bar will run all the way, and it will say "delivered". So I close out of imessage. When I reopen it again, the "delivered" has changed to "not delivered" with the red exclamation point. I just googled "imessage not sending photos" and founds TONS of people with the same problem, but no solutions. (I have rebooted phone, reset network settings, with no luck. I even had to backup/delete/restore my whole phone the other day for a different reason, and hoped that would fix it, but now it won't send to my dad OR my husband (who is on not just the same carrier, but the same family plan as me)

Imessages come from email not cell number

I just got a new Macbook Pro and I am trying to make it so that my imessages come to my phone and my computer. However when I type a message on my computer it comes from my email. I went to 1. Messages 2. Preference 3. Accounts and then added my cell phone number but it still won't work....can I get some help?

Sign out of iMessage on the Mac:
Messages ▹ Preferences ▹ Accounts ▹ Sign out
and on the iPhone:
Settings ▹ Messages ▹ Send & Receive ▹ Apple ID ▹ Sign out
Then, on the phone, tap
Use Your Apple ID for iMessage
Sign back into iMessage on both devices and test. If there's no change, you may have to wait for a change in network conditions.

IMessage won't recognize my phone number

First off, back in January my data plan was turned off for various reasons, so I cannot call or text (sms) from my iPhone. However, as long as I had wifi I could use everything else including iMessage.
Last night, a friend thought it would be funny to try to hack my iCloud account and in doing so they reset the password. So when I woke up, my iMessage and iCloud account was all messed up. So I reset my password and when I went to send an iMessage, it wouldn't work. So I went to settings and tried to fix it via the iMessage setting and I googled everything and tried everything. My last resort was to back my phone up and restore it. I did that, and after it was restored, I got this:
Which makes sense, since my data plan is turned off, but even before when I didn't have my data on, it still was "activated" and said my carrier (Verizon) on it.
So now I am stuck with this in the service bar area:
And iMessage still won't work. And ever since the restore, my phone won't recongize my number and I've tried going into settings and setting my contact card and that's still there, so I don't know what to do. Is the only way to fix this is turning my data plan back on?

You need to contact your carrier, Verizon. They can reset your phone, and once that happens, while you are connected to wifi (since you say you do not have data) you can check the activation status of iMessage in Settings.

SLD: Duplicate Technical System after Installation Number change

We changed the installation number for a system. After this, inside SLD there are 2 entries for this system, with 2 different installation number (new and old). What is the correct procedure to remove one of the entry (old one).
Please advise.
A proper SAP note would be appreciated.
Thanks

Its ok even if you have forgotten to register to the SLD during installation.We can regaister after installation.Since SLD runs on java engine then if you go to http://<ipaddress or hostname of the server>:5<instancenumber>00/sld
If you go into that you can click on administration button and follow the instructions as in the link.

Difference between technical systems and business systems is that business systems are used in PI/XI.Whereas technical systems are nothing but your ECC , CRM etc.You have to use business systems only when there is a case for connecting to XI/PI.Hope i have answered your quesries if not please let me know.

Presentationser won't start after subnet-mask change

Eventlog shows: The Oracle BI Presentation Server service terminated with service-specific error 4294967295 (0xFFFFFFFF).
Can anyone help me out, what I have to alter, in order to make things work again?
After updating the host file I am able to connect to the database, so sqlplus and OBIEE administrator work. It is analytics that will not run anymore because of the service that will not start.
thank you for any help you can give,

Thanks for letting the community know.
The behavior described is usually related to issues with the startup files used to boot Windows. However, this could be one of the outliers.
HP units are usually pretty good about detecting incompatible memory and won't get as far as it is getting.
In the mean time, it certainly wouldn't hurt to try the steps listed while waiting for them to arrive.

IMessage won't reactivate after resetting phone

Ok, so my phone and I had a bit of an adventure today. I left it at a restaurant by mistake and located it with Find My iPhone, and remotely erased the device (could've just locked it, but I was extremely anxious about the fate of my phone at the time). Once I got it back, I restored it with a backup, everything went normally, etc etc.
Except that now, iMessage & FaceTime are stuck on "Waiting for activation..." and when I tap the "Use your Apple ID for iMessage option" and enter my Apple ID/password, I get an error saying that my phone couldn't connect and to check network settings and try again. For clarification: I had to enter my ID info about a half-dozen times in the restoring process, and to log in to this website, so I know the password is correct. I have full wifi & 3G reception (have tried logging in on both), and email, Safari, social media apps - everything else I can think of - is working perfectly fine. This is driving me nuts. I tried restoring the phone one more time, turning airplane mode on/off, everything Google could offer me as a solution, and I've still got nothing. Any help is greatly appreciated, as I don't feel Apple really deserves $29.99 to help me fix a problem that I'm pretty sure isn't my fault.
Oh: And my software is up to date.

Here I am to save the day mf1831! Let's get your iMessage working. May I ask are you logged into your iPhone 5s with your Apple ID? If not then simply go to Settings > iTunes & App Store. Also, go to iCloud in Settings to ensure that you are logged in there as well. Once you are logged in go to Messages and verify that iMessage is turned on. Also, please verify the Send & Receive info under Messages to ensure that both your mobile number and Apple ID is checked under "You Can Be Reached By iMessage At". Please let us know the results after you have peformed these steps.
Thank you…
