Iphone 5 not receiving imessages

my iphone5 cannot receive imessages when i'm not on wifi, I'm still on cellular data though. when i try to send imessages, it automatically converts to SMS or won't send at all. this happened right after i upgraded to the latest IOs. After resetting my network settings each time, i do get past imessages.  Anyone else experiencing this?
thanks!

  • IPhone 5s not receiving iMessages after upgrading to iOS 8

    After upgrading to iOS 8 my iPhone 5s is not receiving iMessages from the rest of the family. My phone shows up green instead of blue on the other phones. I have tried all kinds of resets, turning off/on iMessages, etc. Nothing has worked so far. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

  • Iphone 5s not receiving imessages or sms after ios 8.1 update

    Since updating to iOS 8.1 this morning I have not received any iMessages or SMS, despite my wife having told me she has sent numerous messages to me today! Anyone else have this problem, and any ideas as to how to resolve it?  Thanks.

    I had this problem too. Upgraded this morning and didn't receive any messages all day. Got home and looked at my iPad and found that I'd missed several messages.
    Turned out that iMessage was switched off. Don't know why that would be the case...  but I went into Settings -> Messages, saw that it was now off, switched it on, and all is back to normal.

  • Still not receiving iMessages on my Mac

    I am Still not receiving iMessages on my Mac, even after the Moutain Lion 10.8.2 update and iOS6 on my iPhone 4S.  Does anyone know how to solve this?
    I was under the impression that after the 10.8.2 update and iOS6 and having all of the correct preferences checked new iMessages from someone else would also show up on my Mac and iPad.  Can someone please help and advise?
    Thanks!

    William,
    Thanks so much for your reply and attention to this matter!  I actually figured out last night that I did not have the right boxes checked within the Preferences of iMessage on my Mac.  PROBLEM SOLVED!!!
    Now if you could just help me solve my last issue!  See below...

  • All of a sudden this morning my iphone will not send imessages from my phone number but only from my email address. When I go to the settings for my imessages to choose where they are coming from my phone number is greyed out....Is there a way to fix this

    All of a sudden this morning my iphone will not send imessages from my phone....

    Hi Chas869,
    Hmm, that is strange that your phone number is greyed out. There are a few things that we can try. First would be to turn iMessages off, then back on. See if you are able to select your phone number. Then if that doesn't work, turn iMessages back off, then reset the network settings....settings>general>reset>reset network settings, this will reboot the phone. Don't worry, it won't delete anything from the phone, it simulates a battery pull. Once the device comes back on, then turn iMessages back on. Keep us posted if that works!

  • My iPhone does not receive call phones

    My problem is that most of the time my iPhone does not receive phone calls. I can call, send and receive sms, mail works, wifi, everything. But most of the incoming calls are not received, therefore my iPhone is not reliable as a phone. I have updated the firmware, I have reset it several times, but nothing changed. If I make a call phone and don't switch my iPhone, the person I have call can call me back and likely I would receive the call!!??? Someone can help me to fix my problem? Thank you in advance.

    Hi,
    Try testing the iPhone without any accessories.
    This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1737 provides general tips that will resolve most issues related to making and receiving calls.
    Try contacting the cellular service provider, if the issue persists after trying the tips in the article above. This article: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1937 provides support resources for iPhone service providers.

  • My iPhone is not receiving mail but these messages continue to flash at the bottom of the screen:  Checking for messages, Updated just now, checking for messages, etc.  After a minute or so it will flash downloading 1 - 32 messages but nothing is received

    My iPhone is not receiving mail but the following messages continue to flash over and over at the bottom of the screen:  "Checking for messages, Updated just now, Checking for messages", etc.  After a minute or so it will flash downloading 1 - 32 messages but nothing is received and then the "Checking for Messages," etc. starts back again.   I turned the phone off for 30+ minutes and also tried to reset it, but the problem continues.   Any ideas on how to solve the problem?

    Double click the home button and swipe up the messages app to stop it, then open the app again. This pretty much completely stops the process and freshly opens it again, resolving problems at times. I have had this happen before as well on my iPad, I get a banner, check messages, and nothing new is there.
    If that doesn't work, close the app like suggested above, but then restart the phone by holding down the home and lock button for 10-15 seconds until the apple logo appears.

  • My iphone will not receive/send calls or texts when my computer is on? Help?

    Recently I've noticed my iphone is having reception problems while I'm in my apartment. I've noticed that when my computer is on, my iphone will not receive or send any texts or calls and has problems connecting to the internet. This is a pretty new development, I've had my phone for years with the same computer and no problems before. Any ideas?

    Your computer and iPhone 4 are two seperate elements really using different connections.
    i.e your computer will probably use your router to connect to the internet where as your iphone uses your mobile phone carrier to send and receive texts and calls.
    So its pretty difficult to judge how they can effect each other. You try resetting your router, but ive never heard of anything like this happening before...

  • Iphone will not receive emails

    I recently changed my password on both my yahoo account and itunes account.  i have an ipad and an iphone.   My ipad is receiving emails under my old password, and my iphone will not receive emails under the new or old password.  when I try to enter password for email under setting on iphone, it gives me the message that the yahoo server is unavailable.  again, my ipad has no problems receiving emails nor does my wife on her iphone. 

    I don't have any other email accounts on my phone and I don't get any type of error message.  It just says "Checking for Mail" and I receive nothing, so I know that it is accessing my work email system.  I haven't made any changes to my account.  I only accepted the message to update my carrier system.....I do have an appointment with the local Verizon store to see if they can help.
    Just FYI, my Exchange email account still works on my iPad, so I'm pretty sure the settings are correct.
