Iphone 5 not sending sms to 1 contact

bought the iphone 5 last month and i am on EE. about 2 weeks ago my phone stopped sending sms to one contact. I receive theirs but they never get mine. ive reset phone back to factory settings, reset network settings, deleted and readded contact and still nothing. EE claim its common problem with iphone 5 on this ios setting but have no info on how to fix it. any help is greatly appreciated.

It says they are sent from my end, no exclamation marks at all. The other person has got a nokia (i think, looks like an imitation of the blackberry) and is on tesco mobile. i have gone through their phone and theyve not blocked me, i can still make calls to them fine. As far as i am aware, this is the only contact they dont send to. I have looked online and have seen some iphone users claiming it is a glitch with the iOS setting??

Help!!! Iphone 5 not sending SMS

Hi I've had this issue for the last two weeks... I can send iMessages and receive SMS but I cant send SMS to any number in my address book.
The sending bar moves about 95% then it tells me that its "Not Delivered".
I've spoken to my network provider and tried a few different things but nothing has helped. I've got the latest software so there shouldnt be any glitches there.
Can anyone suggest another method which might get it working again?

Let's see what else we've missed
Assuming you're on GSM (AT&T or T-Mobile) and have text messaging plan active, make sure that Settings > General > Cellular Data is switched On, and for the purpose of troubleshooting, switch Off "Enable LTE", and switch On "Data Roaming". See if that works.
You can also send a free SMS/text message to your provider to see if there's an issue with your contacts' numbers.
For AT&T, go to the dial pad and enter *DATA# (*3282#) and tap Call.
For T-Mobile, go to dial and enter #MSG# (#674#) and tap Call.
If you get a response text back fro myour provider, then I would check your contacts' phone number to make sure it's not missing a digit or include an extra prefix.
Otherwise, I would take a look at the iOS: Troubleshooting Messages (http://support.apple.com/kb/ts2755) article, as it has plenty helpful information regarding this issue.
I hope that helps and resolves the issue. Good luck!

Iphone will not send sms, but there is no error message

Hi!
I sent a sms to a friend of mine two days ago, but I got no response.
I contacted NetCom, but the message had not gone out to their net. It had never "left" the phone.
There is no error message on the phone.
Does anyone know what I need to do to get this message sent?

I don't know what SMS provision means..
There is no exclamation mark next to the message, so it seems that the phone thinks it has sent the message. But it has not arrived NetCom's mobile network to be sent to receiver... I don't understand why.

My iPhone will not send an iMessage. It sends everything as SMS. I have ensured that my Apple ID is signed in and that my phone number is enabled for use in both FaceTime and iMessage

I had the same problem. I went in and added my email address to iMessage and deleted the text to my friends that have iPhones and sent another to test it and it worked. Only thing is now my non iPhone friends don't receive my pic text. I had to turn off iMessage for it to work. Apple needs to fix this ASAP!

Are the other phones that can't receive messages iPhones? If not, that could be the problem.

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!

RESET DEVICE
Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the home button together until the apple logo appears (ignore the ON/OFF slider) then let both buttons go and wait for device to restart (no data will be lost).

HT1430 my iPhone will not send emails. I have checked the settings and reset the phone, it still does not work. Any suggestions? Thanks

If anyone can help I would appreciate it. Mail on my iphone will not send any messages. I have followed the Apple instructions and still it won't work, even after resetting my iphone. My email provider is BT.

To Avoid Relaying:
If you are sending an email from, say, [email protected], but the return address is [email protected], that is relaying (you are using y.com's servers to send an email where the email "originates" from b.com). Many servers don't allow relaying to prevent spamming.
To make this work go into the email account settings, tap the account "button" that has your email address, go to the Advanced section in "Mail" if there is one, then go to "Outgoing Mail Server", tap it, and then tap "Primary Server", and in the Outgoing Mail Server enter your user name and password. It may say optional, but you need this.
Not all services provide this and the sequence of buttons I describe above may not be exactly the same for each address (look around if different). If you can't set the user name and password, then that email service does not provide a way to get around relaying.

HT201320 iPad and iPhone will not send email saying yahoo password is wrong. I have tried entering the password and it does not "take." What can I do?

Ipad and iPhone will not send mail saying yahoo password is wrong. I have tried re entering correct password in setting and it will not "take." What can I do?

Yahoo has been having many email problems this last couple of weeks. There is nothing you can do about it.
