IPhone 5 broke switched to old iPhone 4 but cant receive texts from other iPhone users cant do anything with iPhone 5 screen does not work

I'm guessing that you turned off the iPhone 5? If so, then are you using the same phone number as the 5? You need to go into Settings>Messages>make sure that iMessage is turned on and activated. Then go the Send & Receive and find out if your current number is checked.

    My carrier (Rogers) says they have nothing they can do about it.
    Thanks in advance.

    Correction - iMessage, not iChat.  Too early....

  • Switched to android and can't get texts from apple users, Switched to android and can't get texts from apple users

    switched to galaxy 3 and cant' get texts from people that used to imessage me.  I have tried everything but swtiching my phone number.

    If you no longer have access to your iPhone, you will need to contact Apple for help deactivating your phone number from their iMessage system so those with iPhones will send normal text messages to your phone number instead of iMessages.
    Reference: http://support.apple.com/kb/ts5185
    iOS: Deactivating iMessage
    Symptoms
    If you experience any of these symptoms, you may want to deactivate iMessage:
    You can't receive SMS on your non-Apple device when another person sends them using an iPhone.
    You can't send SMS to a non-Apple device because they send as an iMessage.
    Resolution
    If you experienced the symptoms above, your cellular phone number may still be registered with iMessage. When you turn iMessage on with your iPhone, iMessage registers your cellular telephone number.
    To deregister your phone number, tap Settings > Messages and turn iMessage off.
    If you can't deactivate iMessage after you perform the steps above or you can't access the iPhone, please contact Apple Support.

  • Have iphone5s-unless I am in wifi, I cant receive texts from other iphone users unless their imessage is turned off. Help

    If in wifi zone I have no problems as the imessage to immesage works.  However, when wifi off and cellular data on I cannot recieve texts from an iphone user unless their immessage is turned off.  These iphone uses recieve my messages but I do not recieve the replies.  Help?

    Make sure Send as SMS is on . If it is on and the error still occurs go to Send and Recieve, and make sure your phone number is the ONLY thing listed.

  • How do I stop the texts from other iPhone users trying to reach the person who has my old phone number?

    I no longer have cell phone service but I still use my iphone every day for apps and imessage. Now someone has my old phone number. It seems that this person does not have a iphone. Everytime one of their friends with an iphone tries to text them the message goes to my iphone. I have tried many things to stop this. I took my old phone number off my apple account and I took out my old sim card. But I still am getting texts from other iphones attempting to reach whom ever has my old phone number. HELP please. This person is very popular, at first it was funny now its annoying. I'm sure the person with my old number is even more upset than I since they are actully paying for service.

    Hello there, lalaysa.
    The following Knowledge Base article offers up some great recommendations for unlinking your old phone number from your device:
    iOS and OS X: Link your phone number and Apple ID for use with FaceTime and iMessage
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5538
    Unlink a phone number
    To remove a phone number from an Apple ID, sign out of FaceTime and Messages on your iPhone:
    Settings > Messages > Send & Receive. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    Settings > FaceTime. Tap your Apple ID, then tap Sign Out.
    This should remove your phone number from other devices using the same Apple ID with FaceTime and Messages. If the phone number is still available on other devices after you sign out of FaceTime and iMessage on the iPhone, you may need to sign out of iMessage and FaceTime on all your devices, then sign in to FaceTime and Messages again on devices you want to use.
    Note: If you no longer have access to the iPhone that is using the number you want to remove, reset your Apple ID password.
    Thanks for reaching out to Apple Support Communities.
    Cheers,
    Pedro.

  • HT1349 MY IPHONE 4 THAT IS ONE MONTH OLD IS SENDING MULTIPLE REPEAT TEXT MESSAGES AND EVERYONE I KNOW IS ANNOYED WITH ME, IVE READ THIS IS AN ONGOING PROBLEM, DOES ANYONE KNOW IF THAT IS TRUE OR IF THERE IS A WAY TO FIX IT? I CAN NOT SEEM TO GET AN ANSWER

    My iphone 4 is about a month old ad it continues to send multiple repeat texts message to the point where I have stop sending texts because everyone is annoyed with me, is there a solution that anyone knows of? I am hearing from sprint that it is apple's issue and from apple it is a sprint issue. They said I can take it to the store but its one month old and I find it hard to beleive that they do not have an easier solutions, i dont have time to or the patience to give up my phone for three days. This can't be right correct? If anyone has founf a solution I would really appreciate some help as Im sure you can hear I am frustrated.
    thank you

    It is a sprint issue and other carriers have that same problem. I get multiple copies of texts from other carriers all the time to my iphone. It isn't the iphone, it is the carrier sending the text message several times because they haven't received and ack message from the recepient.

  • Cant receive texts from o2 (im on orange)

    hello im hoping you guys can help me out ! im on orange with iphone4 and for the past 3days i can send texts to people on the o2 network but no one from the o2 network can reply to me...ive contacted orange they say they sent me a sim update (whatever that might be) but i havent received that either...i can receive texts from every other network but just not o2! ive reset to factory settings i just really dont have a clue what else i can try any help would be fabulous!! thanks marie !

    Hi
    I'm having exactly the same problem. However I'm on O2. I recently migrated my number from vodafone to O2 and since joining the network I've been unable to receive any texts from O2 customers. All other services are normal i.e can receive and make calls with anyone, and send texts to anyone as well. The only issue is receving texts from other O2 users. They are infact unable to send me the texts. An error message comes up their phone when attempting. Very frustrating! Anyone care to shed some light on the situation?

    Did you try a reset, hold the power button and home button until you see the apple then let go? Did you try to restore as new in iTunes on your computer?
