  • Can i still receive iMessage in  my ipad after switching my iphone to Galaxy s4?

    I have had an iphone for the past 3 years but my company is changing my iphone to Galaxy s4. I have a lot of friends using iphone so i use imessaging a lot and i know i cannot receive imessage in my galaxy s4. I will still have my old ipad using my apple id so i would like to know if i can still receive my iMessages in my ipad. thanks for any help in advance.

    Interestign... not sure if the phone # will somehow evaporate off your iPad once you cutover.
    No matter what though, your friends could always iMessage you at your AppleID instead of with your phone # and that would still work as long as you enabled the ID on your iPad.

    You'll need to contact Apple Support if you no longer have the iphone.

  • Switched from iphone to galaxy - now not receiving texts from iphone users

    Switched from iphone to galaxy for multiple reasons.  Still keeping my iPad and wanted to use my iphone for music.  Now I am not receiving texts, apparently imessages, from iphone users -  there is no notification either way that a message was not received.  So iphone users think I have received a text when I haven't.  This makes me angry with Apple as there have been medical issues in our family and I have not been receiving important communication.  I also have clients I have not received texts from.  My understanding is I will have to delete my iphone from my apple account completely, but then will not be able to use it at all for itunes or anything else. 

    If you still have the iPhone, go to Settings and turn off iMessage. If you don't have the phone or if that doesn't solve the problem, contact Apple Support and request that they deactivate iMessage. https://www.apple.com/support/appleid/contact/

  • Imessage problems from iPhone to galaxy s4

    I just switched from an iPhone to galaxy s4 for work. My friends and coworkers with iPhones will try to send me texts, but it still tries to send them as imessages so I am not receiving anything from them. I message is turned off on all my apple devices or changed to my email address. What should I do to be able to received messages on my galaxy from iPhones now?

    You need to log in at icloud.com and remove your i-device.

  • IPhone to galaxy s4

    My problem is that I have switched from iPhone 4 to galaxy s4. I cannot receive texts from iphone users. now
    I have turned off imessage and removed my number from imessage on Apple id. Ive also unregistered my my iPhone from apple
    and wiped my iphone out completely the only thing left I can think of is
    changing my number. Im so desperate for an answer because neither apple or verizon can figure it out

    You're going to have to wait 45 days for iMessage to stop servicing the number if you already removed the phone from your support profile and it's still showing as active for other iDevice users.

  • Switched from Iphone to Galaxy, Contacts with Iphone's can't message me

    I've switched from the Iphone to the Galaxy S5, everyone in my Contacts list that still has an iphone, can not text me. I keep showing up as an imessage. My iphone has been sold back to Verizon and wiped. My Contacts have deleted me and reentered me, nothing seems to be working. Help

    Text the word "stop" to 48369 from your new phone. This should deregister your number from Apples system. Restart your phone.
    It should work now, but some iPhones may take a while longer before they will recognize your phone not being in Apple's system.

  • IPhone to Galaxy S4 not receiving text messages

    I recently switched from iPhone to Samsung Galaxy S4.  Now when I send a text message to an iPhone user, they are receiving my text messages but I can only get their responses on my iPad (iMessaging).  Anyone know how I can correct this to get their responses on my new Galaxy S4?

    i recently switched from iphone to droid maxx and i FINALLY figured it out. everyone was telling me to unregister it from icloud, itunes, apple. going to apple support was 0 help and verizon 0 help. it shouldn't have to be this way, but all i did was change the password on my apple ID and i started receiving messages again from iphone users. i hope this helps someone because everyone complaining about the issue isn't helping those who need it fixed. obviously verizon, apple and droid need to have a talk.

  • Transition from Iphone to Galaxy S4

    I decided to leave apple and go with galaxy.   I have been having NOTHING but issues since I got the phone last night.    I went and deregistered my Iphone,  but I'm hearing that can take up to 30 days before I start receiving texts from  Iphone users.    The problem is both of my kids have Ipods that are asoociated with my apple ID and music.  Would I have to degregister these as well or just turn I message off?    I refuse to go to all of my contacts (most Iphone users) and inconvience them  by asking them to turn off their Imessage.    Is there a better way or is APPLE basically forcing me to forever use their products?

    I've done a bit of research into this myself because I plan to go from the iPhone 4s to the Galaxy S5 when it's released and from that I've gathered so far, your Apple ID is tied to your phone number on your iPhone.  You must let Apple know that you no longer have an iPhone so your phone is no longer registered with their servers. There are a few different ways to do that, so I won't cover it here.  Additionally, if you have any other Apple devices tied to your Apple ID, you must turn iMessage OFF on those devices as well.  Finally, people with iPhones running iOS 7 need to enable the option to "send as SMS when iMessage not available" on their device.  This was enabled by default on iOS 6 and below so I'm not sure why it was changed in iOS 7.  That way, iMessage is still turned on and they can iMessage other iPhone users, but they will be able to send SMS texts as well.

  • Texting from Iphone to Galaxy

    I used to be able to text someone with a Galaxy 4 from my Iphone 4s and then last week it stopped working. It shows on my phone that the text is sent but they never recieve it.  Can anyone help?

    Hello Christina-
    This began about ten days ago.  Prior to that we were always able to send
    back and forth between each other for the last 5 months.  Prior to that the
    Galaxy user did have an Iphone but he deactivated his account and
    everything and we were able to communicate for five months.  I have tried
    turning off Imessage as well, and the Galaxy user is still unable to
    recieve my messages.
    Thanks

  • Only some texts btwn iphone and galaxy not being received

    I have an iphone 6 through att. My besty has a Samsung Galaxy s5 through Verizon. We live in the same metro area. She receives most of my texts, but not all. As far as we can tell, I receive all of her texts to me. I'm sure ATT will say it's Verizon's fault and Verizon will say it's ATT's fault. I'm not looking for blame. I'm looking for solutions

    natasha2168,   You won't find any blame here - just steps to get to a solution. We offer a history of text messages on My Verizon http://vz.to/P5EA3R that may just help to really figure out which company is the one that is having issues. Any messages that our network gets from your phone will show up in the texting history. If they are missing from your friend's texting history then that would point to an issue with her carrier. If the messages aren't even showing up in your texting history it means our network is never getting them from your phone. In a case like that we would need to trouble shoot your phone to see why it's not sending all texts to our network.  SarahO_VZW Follow us on Twitter @VZWSupport If my response answered your question please click the "Correct Answer" button under my response.

  • Switched from iPhone to Galaxy S3 and now back to iPhone 5

    I am having issues with imessage on the iphone. I can't sent imessages from my phone number but i can send them from my emails that are registered for imessage. How can I fix it to send from my phone number?

    Hello missyrocks14,
    Signing out of your Apple ID in Settings -> Messages -> Send & Receive, then signing back in can help get your iPhone to send messages from your phone number.
    To sign out of your Apple ID
    Go to Settings > FaceTime, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
    Go to Settings > Messages > Send & Receive, tap your Apple ID, and select Sign Out.
    If you have difficulty activating FaceTime or iMessage

  • I have a contact that changed from iPhone to Android, but my iPhone cannot recognize the switch and continues sending texts as iMessage.

    I have an iPhone and one of my contacts switched from iPhone to Galaxy phones. But now when I text them, my messages continue sending as iMessage, even though they do not have the iMessage feature anymore. The only way my texts are sending is when I turn the iMessage feature completely off on my phone. I tried holding the individual iMessage texts down and clicking the "send as text" option but then my messages aren't delivering, I deleted and re-added the number, and restarted my phone. How do I make my phone recognize it's not an iPhone anymore?

    It's not something you need to fix. The other person needs to deregister their number from iMessage: http://support.apple.com/en-us/HT203042
