Iphone 4 only receiving sms from certain networks- help?!!!!

Iphone 4 is only receiving sms from certain networks - help?!!!

Have you contacted your carrier to report the problem? This is not (and can not be) a problem with the phone. It's a problem with your carrier and/or the way they have your service provisioned.

  • Only receive texts from certain numbers

    Aside from having the absolute worst customer support of the various phone services I've used ( I was seriously on the phone for 45 minutes trying various ways to get through the machine to get to a customer service rep. Continuously said, "Sorry we couldn't help you, goodbye." or, "We couldn't connect your call". ) I can no longer receive texts from certain numbers.
    I can send texts and people receive them. I can receive texts back from some of these people, however when others try to text me it goes instead to a random person. (Which seems to be the same person their texts are getting forwarded to each time. )
    I've turned off the call forwarding with *73, I've updated my software, I've TRIED to get in touch with a customer service representative about my account, but that's seemingly impossible.
    Offer me a suggestion or don't. This is my last month with Verizon no matter what. Inconvenience on top of inconvenience on top of inconvenience.

        Having text message work properly is very important. I'm sorry you are having so many issues with your service and that you have not been able to contact customer service. You can reach us at *611 or 1-800-922-0204 and hit 0 to speak to a representative. You can also send us a private message with your name and phone number so that we can call you and take a look at the account in detail. What phone do you have and are you using a 3rd party text messaging application?

  • Suddenly only randomly only receiving mails from certain people.....help !

    hi there
    i've sat on the phone with three people who have been resending emails to me from their office servers, and also gmail, and hotmail and haven't received any of them. I have received a couple of random mails from other people, but i would normally expect 30 - 50 in this time. This is very scary, what can i do ?

    I lost half a day trying to sort this out - anything above 1MB just not coming through (still not). I ended up on Chat with Support and the guy admitted email had been down since Weds (it was then Fri 20th MAy) but he couldnt give any further info. I did manage to get an extension of my contract free for really rubbish service

    Don't use ALL CAPS on post, online means you are SHOUTING and is very RUDE.
    SMS is a carrier service, talk to your carrier.

  • Dont receive SMS from ONE person only. I am AT&T, they are Verizon

    Since my friend swithed to a BB Pearl, I am unable to receive SMS from her. On her old phone I received them. Since getting the BB Pearl I do not receive them. They show up as sent on her phone but I get nothing. I am on a blackberry curve with AT&T. She is on a Pearl with Verizon.

  • Hi! Just got my new ihpone 4 yesterday, but i'm having issues in texting a specific contact. sending sms or iMessages works perfectly fine with all my contacts apart from 1,which is even using my same network, though i can call it and receive sms from it.

    Hi! Just got my new ihpone 4 yesterday, but i'm having issues in texting a specific contact. sending sms or iMessages works perfectly fine with all my contacts apart from 1,which is even using my same network, though i can call it and receive sms from it. What could the problem be?

    My Quad is as quiet with 10.4.5 as it was on arrival Jan 31, with 10.4.2
    Altivec Fractal Carbon gives the CPU too much chance to cool down. I've got other ways to drive the CPU to sustained 100% load. Yes, the fans speed up, but it's still pretty quiet. I've run it at 100% for hours.
    I like the idea of taking things gradually. If you can wait a few days before making big changes, it can make things much easier. 3-4 weeks is very conservative, but great if you have that much patience.
    My Quad has been up full-time since I got it. Works perfectly.

  • I dont't receive sms from abroad with iphone 4

    I don't receive sms from abroad with iphone4; I didn't change my operator. I received messages before so what ?

    Yes. I do receive iMessages and I can send text messages and iMessages. The only thing that does not work is receiving text messages from abroad...

  • Why can't I receive sms from other phones ?

    Why can't I receive sms from other phones ?

    Try going to setting->general->reset-> reset network settings. And see if that works.
    You may also want to contact your carrier and see if there is anything funny going on with your profile.
    Best of luck let me know if this helps.

  • Why i can't receive sms from my wife iPhone4 ?, why i can't receive sms from my wife iPhone4 ?

    why i can't receive sms from my wife iPhone4 ? we both have iphone 4 with different account.

    If the music on your wife's computer was purchased using a different iTunes account than the one your phone is signed into, the music won't transfer.  You can only have iTunes content from one account on the phone at a time. 
    You can set up Home Sharing where you can stream your wife's music to your phone but only when the phone is connected to your local WiFi network

  • HT1766 I backed up to my PC and attempted restore but I keep getting an error message that "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available." I have a 32GB iPhone; only 13GB used!!!  HELP!  iCloud backup/restore did not work

    I backed up to my PC and attempted restore but I keep getting an error message that "iTunes could not restore the iPhone because not enough free space is available." I have a 32GB iPhone; only 13GB used!!!  HELP!  iCloud backup/restore did not work either! How can I resolve this problem to restore from back up.

    If you're not a developer then you really should not have upgraded.
    I'm unsure how you can fix this as you have already done a back-up on iOS 7 and apple don't support firmware downgrades.

  • Using .htaccess file to block access from certain networks

    Does anybody have any tips on getting a .htaccess file to work to block access to my Web Access server from certain network ranges on SuSE 10 SP3 with GW 8.0.2.
    It does seem like the file does anything? With Web Access I'm not exactly sure where to put the file. I used to accomplish this using iptables, but I was seeing if I could do the same with .htaccess.
    Thanks!

    You can block a range with the .htaccess file, for example by defining the range as
    Code:
    order allow,deny
    deny from 10.0.
    allow from all
    ...that would block all 10.0.0.0 upto 10.0.255.255 addresses
    You cannot use this file in tomcat, so useless I think... but as Apache is used as frontend for the tomcat webacc application and you might be able to edit the gw conf apache files to include the range denies (which by default can be found in /etc/opt/novell/groupwise/webaccess/gw.conf).
    Maybe this thread might help as there are some examples in howto include denies in the .conf files.
    Deny IP Ranges in httpd.conf Apache Web Server forum at WebmasterWorld
    Do make a backup of you current gw.conf in case it blows up :)

    Just FYI, everyone here is just a fellow user. .Mac employees provide no technical support here and probably never read any of these posts. If you want to contact .Mac support, you need to fill out and submit the form on this web page. When you fill out the form, provide as much detail as possible - the most important items will be the domain(s) (i.e. someplace.com) that the problem emails are being sent from.
    Good luck.
