IPhone 4 will not text someone who has an Android

I have a friend who has an Android and I can't text his phone from my IPhone 4.  I have another friend who has the same phone, and he can text the Android.  Only difference is I have updated to the iOS 7.0.4 and the other IPhone user has not.

Is the problem just with the one person? Can you text to other non-iPhone users?

  • IPhone 4s will not text ANYBODY, says 'Not Delivered' with red !

    Okay, so I am so close to smashing this thing I am so mad.
    Last night everything was working fine, I could text everyone and everything was sunshine and rainbows. Then in the middle of a conversation my texts suddenly stopped sending, saying not delivered.
    At first it was only one person, but now it's EVERYONE on my contacts, iPhone user or not!
    I've reset my phone settings, I've tried turning iMessage on and off, I turned SMS on and off, MMS on and off, I called apple and was met with a "Nobody that specializes in your apple product is available at this hour" response, I've tried adding a number to the existing phone number and then texting simply '111-2222' without the area code, I reset my roaming (or whatever that was, looked like *5000-something)
    I can receive messages, and I can call people and receive calls, I just can't SEND them!
    PLEASE, HELP ME OUT! Im going crazy!

    Try resetting network settings in the settings and then rebooting the phone.

  • My iphone 5 will not text one number

    Have seen previous threads on this issue but none have resolved this matter for me.
    There is one number that I cannot text, the other p contact a Samsung GT-S3350(Tesco) mine is on Vodafone.  I can receive texts and calls and can call the number, but texts fail to send and are all marked as Not Delivered.
    I have turned both phones on and off, turned on/off iMessage, 3G, data roaming and have reset network settings. I have also deleted the contact from my phone and the other phone.
    My wife has an iphone 5 and doesnt have any problems texting the number.
    Can anyone help?
    Thanks!

    I did solve the problem. I assumed because the message bubble was green that my friend had another type of phone. I was completely wrong! After I just made sure iMessage was on and restarted my phone it works just fine! So I guess iMessage was the problem ☺️

  • TS4268 When I text someone who has iMessage, it turn into the green bubble instead of the blue bubble. When the person texts back, it quickly turns into iMessage. How can I fix this?

    It's really weird, it just started happening about 2 weeks ago.

    Settings/Messages - Turn off  "send as SMS".

  • If I'm overseas, and I use iMessage not connected to wifi, and I'm messaging someone who has an iPhone as well with ios 7, will get charged SMS/mms fees?

    if I'm overseas, and I use iMessage not connected to wifi, and I'm messaging someone who has an iPhone as well with ios 7, will get charged SMS/mms fees?

    No, but cellular data will be used at whatever international roaming rate you carrier charges for data in whatever country.
    Exchanging iMessages requires the same thing as email - an available internet connection. SMS/MMS is completely separate from iMessage.

  • Is there a way to increase the icon size (and the text below) without using zoom?  I am trying to help out someone who has moderate visual impairment that does not want to use zoom just to see the icons and their labels.

    Is there a way to increase the icon size (and the text below) without using zoom in iOS 7?  I am trying to help out someone who has moderate visual impairment that does not want to use zoom just to see the icons and their labels.

    Hello Apple.
    It seems you have gone to great lengths to improve accessibility in many areas of the iPad. Why was this obvious problem with icon text size missed?  (It's not with the Mac.). And for so long too.
    Do you employ people with actual accessibility problems to help you do UI design?
    I think too, that some buttons are too close for people who might have motor control problems.
    I love my iPad but I fear as I age, the iPad might not keep up with me.

  • How do you facetime w someone who has iPhone?

    how do you facetime w someone who has iPhone?
    Obviously my iPod doesn't have a phone #...  So how do they "call" me? 

    Ok - so I used my gmail address.  Will that work? 
    My friend cannot call me and I cannot call her. 
    She has iPhone 4s.  I'm calling her using her iPhone #, and she isn't receiving the invite. 
    Her iPhone wants to connect to WiFi...  I am connected to WiFi. 
    Thanks for the above answer and if you can further help, I appreciate it.

  • My iphone 4 will not send and receive text messages at random times

    My iphone 4 will not send and receive text messages at random times.  My brother has the same phone, lives in the same home and doesn't have this problem.  I can't receive messages without my iphone displaying a message asking for my phone number at random times. It happens intermittently.  Does anyone know why this happens? I am referring to regula text messages not imessages.  I have turned it off and also updated to the most recent software. thanks

    I've been an AT&T customer since they were under different names in the 90s and have never heard/seen that. I would check with them. I'd really like to see that error. To get a screenshot on the phone, press the home button and sleep/wake button together quickly and release. You will see the screen flash slightly and hear the camera shutter noise.

    MMS is a carrier issue... contact Verizon and ensure your account is provisioned correctly.  I would think that someone would be intelligent enough to do that before buying a new device, but......
    iMessage could be an activation issue or a network issue.
    Have you tried Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings?
    Does iMessage work consistently on Wi-Fi?

    My iPhone was stolen a few days ago. It appears to be offline on the Find My iPhone app. If the person who has it turns it on only for a brief moment and then turns it off immediately, will the location still be found? Once it returns to being offline will the location still be sent to me? And also, how can I retrieve my pictures from my iCloud?

    Anything is possible.

  • My Iphone 4  will not let me send an email or reply to an email.  The message states it has put it in my outbox  and it is rejected by the server because it does not allow relaying???   I can't seem to find an answer to fix this.  Any help?

    Your email provider has blocked the standard mail port 25 for sending emails and is requiring a different port. This is to avoid mail relays that use mail clients to send spam. You need to find the port that is used by your provider for sending outgoing mail. Then change the settings in your email account on your phone to match the port. You will also have to provide some security credentials for the account.
    You can also try deleting the email account from your iphone, and the adding the email account back as this will many times set the correct port for sending emails.
    You could also do a Google search on the the settings for your device with your email provider. That will provide you with the proper settings.

  • My iphone 4S will not sync with my PC - it has in the past but now won't

    My iphone 4S will not sync to my PC - it has done in the past and now no devices show up when I plug it in.?
    Please help....
    my itunes is up to date and I have restarted my computer.

    Hi,
    Setting up syncing
    Before setting up syncing you should download and install the latest version of iTunes. Wi-Fi syncing requires iTunes 10.5 or later and iOS 5 or later. You can change your sync options at any time. Each time you sync, content is synced between your iOS device and computer to reflect new, updated, or deleted content.
    USB syncing
    Open iTunes.
    Connect the iOS device to your computer using the included USB cable and select it in iTunes under Devices on the left-hand side. Some tabs may not appear if you do not have corresponding content in your library. For example if you do not have any podcasts in your library, the corresponding Podcast tab will not appear.
    Click Apply, in the lower-right corner of the screen, to sync.
    Wi-Fi syncing
    Open iTunes
    To set up Wi-Fi syncing, connect your iOS device to your computer with the included USB cable. Select your device under Devices on the left-hand side.
    In the Summary tab, select "Sync with this [device] over Wi-Fi".
    Whenever the computer and the iOS device are on the same network, the iOS device will appear in iTunes, and you can sync it. The iOS device will sync automatically when all of the following are true: 
    The iOS device is plugged in to power
    iTunes is open on the computer
    The iOS device and the computer are on the same Wi-Fi network
    While the iOS device appears in the left-hand column of iTunes, you can select the content tabs and configure sync options.
    Click Apply or Sync to sync the iOS device.
    Hope this helps

  • IPhone 4s will not let me text to one phone number

    My iPhone 4s will not let me text to my brother's phone number.  It keeps giving the message "Error Invalid Number.  Please re-send using a valid 10 digit mobile number or valid short code."  I have rebooted my phone; same problem.  I checked the number; it is correct with area code and 7-digit number.  I have no trouble texting anyone else in my contact list.  The number is not blocked. 

    I'd head to an Apple Retail Store or contact AppleCare at 1-800-275-2273
